When was the last time you really listened to your body? So often, we've been conditioned to push through — to ignore the subtle whispers of discomfort, fatigue, or restlessness. We convince ourselves we'll slow down after the next deadline, once the project's done, or when things feel less busy. But our bodies are wise. And when we ignore the whispers for too long, they eventually start to shout. That was my reality for a long time. I thought I was doing all the “right” things — balancing work, life, and everything in between — until my body started telling me otherwise. It wasn't until my body forced me to listen that I realised just how disconnected I'd become from myself. Amongst all this, Keri Krieger, a beautiful soul and gifted Acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine Practitioner, began weaving her way through my life. Keri teaches us to tune back in — to understand the signals our bodies are sending , and to see that they aren't breaking down, they are simply trying to communicate. In this week's podcast episode, I sit down with Keri for a heartfelt conversation about how we can learn to reconnect with our bodies, honour their innate wisdom, and navigate life's transitions with more grace and ease. Keri shares her philosophy around health and wellbeing through the lens of Chinese Medicine — offering such a refreshing and grounded approach to what it means to truly be well. She brings calm, compassion, and deep insight into how we can create balance not just in our bodies, but in our lives. And I'm beyond thrilled that Keri will also be joining us at Exhale the Retreat in just over three weeks, 23rd-26th October. During the retreat, she'll be guiding us through deep conversations and beautiful experiences that help us tune into our own inner knowing, reconnect with our energy, and move through transitions with clarity and confidence. In our chat, we also explore the belief that taking time for ourselves is indulgent — a luxury reserved for “when we have time.” But as Keri so gently reminds us, it's in these moments of rest and reflection that we fill our own cup. Because if we don't, our capacity to show up for others becomes depleted, and resentment can quietly creep in. If you've been feeling stretched thin, stuck in survival mode, or simply craving more connection with yourself — this episode is your invitation to pause. To breathe. To listen. In this conversation, we explore: ✨ The importance of tuning into your body's innate wisdom ✨ What Chinese Medicine can teach us about balance and self-awareness ✨ How to move through change and transition with grace ✨ Why rest and reflection are not indulgent, but essential ✨ What to expect from Keri's sessions at Exhale the Retreat It's time to listen — because your body has been speaking all along. ✨ Learn more and secure your place to Exhale HERE. I can't wait to see you there!

In this podcast Kate Thomson from The Mamas Alchemist talks about how in her role as a Registered Midwife and a Chinese Medical Practitioner, she supports women holistically during their pregnancy and after the birth. In Chinese Medicine, the first 40 days after the birth are considered to impact the next 40 years of a mother's life. Honoring the value of rest, harnessing support from partners, friends, family and available services and nutrition all play an essential role in postnatal recovery. Kate suggests from 34 weeks of pregnancy to double batch when cooking, to place one meal in the freezer to make life easier postnatally, however the quality of the food also matters. Nutrients are absorbed more easily from warmer foods such as soups, and stews, which helps healing after birth. Replenishment and nourishment of the body between pregnancies is also an important element to consider, as is giving your body appreciation for what it has done as you move through your journey of motherhood. Kate talks prolapse postnatally and how she uses acupuncture and herbal medicine in her role as a Chinese Medicine Practitioner, highlighting too that she works collaboratively with women's health physiotherapists, and other health professionals. She encourages pregnant mums to prepare for their postnatal recovery, and to know the value of slowing down, using horizontal time for rest as much as possible, to help give the pelvic floor and body time to heal and recover.

Send us a Text Message.Tai Chi is often thought of as a martial art turned wellness activity. It is also considered an exercise like walking, yoga, or stretching. However, it is much more than that. It is a way of being, a way of living, and a way of supporting the body to be its very best. We all arrive to class ready to learn the patterns of Tai Chi and think that when we have remembered the pattern we will be done. Again, we are quickly corrected by this fact as we discover that in order to support the well-being of body, mind, and spirit, we need to engage with transforming our day and our activities to be energy-building and storing.

Today we dive deep from the get go, and speak to some truths that need to be acknowledged but are not always easy to hear, when we have been conditioned to think a certain way about illness and disease. Dr Rosey Lathouras is a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioner with a special interest in pain and stress management, as well as detoxification pathways, fertility and natural beauty. Rosey has done a great deal of study in the field of cupping and how to use this modality for detoxification and lymph draining. Further study also involved advanced Tweena (Chinese Massage) techniques and in depth tongue and pulse analysis. Dr. Rosey is commonly known as the 'pain doctor' as many people are sent to her for musculoskeletal (muscle) pains or unexplained pains radiating through different organs or channels of the body. A few of the topics we discuss today include:- Why we are so sick as a society in modern society and disease is so prevalent- Why we should be focusing on prevention rather than treatment in medicine. - We talk about the of the powerful tools that Traditional Chinese Medicine offers to prevent illness including cupping and acupuncture.- Why it is important to understand the natural healing process and allow the space, in our convenience and busy society, to take the time and put in the energy and effort to allow natural healing to occur. And so much more, I loved this so much so lets jump in. Dr. Rosey's InstagramDr. Rosey's Website

Hailing from Austin, Texas, Brooke is an acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine Practitioner. In March of 2018, she founded The Road, a zen space where many can find treatments that help them reach their individual goals around the pursuit of health and well-being through Chinese Medicine. Brooke began a career in skin care after she found her own skin in accelerated aging after spending years in the sun as a flyfishing instructor and guide. She became an esthetician, and eventually moved to Seattle, then Australia where she worked as a global educator and brand manager for a range of organic skincare in the spa industry. She chose to study Chinese medicine to further her skills, knowing she needed the benefit of treating the skin from the inside out – treating the body as a whole allows healing to take place in systems that have a direct impact on the skin, not just topically. Her holistic approach and system works for improving health, skin and wellbeing – you will find yourself sleeping better, have improved digestion, less stress, less pain, less inflammation.

In this episode, I speak with Chinese medicine practitioner and holistic health consultant, Havva Mahler. Havva grew up in a small town in Western Massachusetts and when she turned 18, she moved to Israel. She spent 2 years of national service as a librarian in the Israeli army then decided to study Chinese medicine. Havva went on to open two clinics and over the 13 years of working with patients so far, she realised just treating people's physical pain wasn't enough and wanted to motivate patients to be more proactive about their health. Havva says, “Most of the pain people suffer in the modern world is the result of lifestyle and habits. Too many of us don't know how to take care of ourselves.

In this episode Victoria shares the pregnancies and births of her two children Ezra and Lumi. Ezra was an induced vaginal birth in hospital. Although it was the intervention free birth she was hoping for, she was still a bit disappointed in the care she received and planned to go ahead with a home birth the second time around. With her second pregnancy, there's was some ups and downs with what maternity care was available, and in the end due to Covid she was actually able to arrange a homebirth at the last minute. Lumi's birth was empowering and set her up for a positive start to postpartum and breastfeeding. Victoria is a Chinese Medicine Practitioner and also has a small business, Tiny Tot Tinctures, making topical herbal baby products. I actually used her nappy balm when Alice was a baby and still use what's left on small bumps and scrapes so I can definitely recommend checking out her products if you're preparing to welcome a newborn or have a baby with nappy rash! You can find Victoria on instagram @tiny_tot_tinctures.
