Why Movement Matters
What a time to be alive. From food-delivery and shopping, to online dating and more, it is now seemingly possible to have anything delivered right to your doorstep. Although this is a great way to save time, the downside of living in such an on-demand society is lost movement. Convenience is the driving force behind…

Ehlers-Danlos Hypermobility Syndrome (hEDS) and Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD) are a relatively new area of medicine despite having been first discovered in the early 1900s.

Frozen Vegetables: Nutritious or Not Worth It?
From a young age, most of us are encouraged to eat our vegetables. Despite this early emphasis, most children and adults alike fail to meet the daily recommendations for these important sources of nutrients (7-10 servings of fruit/veg).

Pillars of Health: Stillness
Stillness & recovery have equal value to conscious movement. With so much energy devoted to exercise and movement, it is easy to forget about counterbalancing with stillness (not to be confused with mindless screen time). Ironically, this lack of intentional stillness can reduce the benefits of increased movement. It is quite common for people to…
Pillars of Health: Nutrition
It’s no secret that food and water play key roles in determining health and performance, but the way in which they do so is often misinterpreted.

Pillars of Health: Movement
The human body was designed for daily movement. The old adage “Use it or lose it” doesn’t apply to many things, but it certainly does apply when dealing with the health of the human brain and body.

Pillars of Health: Community
Community is the part of your everyday environment that is filled by friends and family, your local neighbourhood, along with your work colleagues and acquaintances. As social creatures (even if you’re an introvert), community is a much-needed aspect of our lives. Supporting others with their goals and ambitions is just as important as having others…
Pillars of Health: Sense of Self
Health starts and ends with your Sense of Self. In layman’s terms: You are no good to anyone else if you don’t take care of yourself first. A lack of Self- and ensuing self-care- tends to be an area of opportunity for many: When you are constantly prioritizing the needs of others or other tasks…
