This Might Surprise You — Reflections on Women and our Bodies

This Might Surprise You — Reflections on Women and our Bodies

This morning at the gym, I stepped into the change room and noticed something…
Every woman around me was carefully wrapping herself in a towel, turning away, doing her best to stay covered.
It wasn’t a large room — and there were cubicles with doors for anyone who wanted privacy — yet still, there was this sense of needing to hide.
And it made me pause.
Why do we feel we need to hide our bodies… even in a space that’s just for women?

Growing Up in Sweden Was Different

I grew up in Sweden, where this was never the case. The showers in change rooms were open — no curtains, no cubicles.
Women would stand side by side — showering, chatting, laughing. Bodies were just bodies. There was no shame, no awkwardness, no sense of needing to cover up.
When I was rowing, we even shared the sauna with men. It wasn’t strange. It was simply normal.

A Memory With My Daughter

When my children were little, I saw how different things were here in Australia. My daughter would use her towel like a shield after swimming lessons, because that’s what “everyone did.”
But when she was 11 (and my son was 9), we spent three months in Sweden.
One day, she came home after sports at school, her eyes wide.
“Mum… the girls were all running around naked in the change room! Showering, laughing, not even caring!”
At first, she was shocked. A little uncomfortable.
But then she noticed the freedom in it — the comfort, the joy, the complete lack of shame.
That memory has always stayed with me.

A Body is a Body

I’ve worked with bodies for over 25 years. I’ve seen every shape, every size, every scar, every wrinkle, every story.
And you know what?
👉 None of that defines a person.
Your body is not who you are.
Your body is your temple.

Bodies Change — And That’s a Privilege

As women, our bodies go through incredible journeys:
🤰 Pregnancy
🧒 Birth
🌙 Menopause
⏳ Aging
Bellies stretch. Breasts sag. Skin wrinkles. Gravity leaves its mark.
Yes, those changes can feel confronting when we look in the mirror.
But every mark, every fold, every wrinkle is proof that you’ve lived.
And isn’t that worth embracing?

My Message to You Today

Can you stand in front of a mirror and truly love what you see?
Not “one day when you’ve lost weight.”
Not “when you’ve toned up.”

But right now.
👉 Can you love the belly that carried your babies?
👉 The wrinkles that came from years of laughter and tears?
👉 The softness that time has gifted you?
And if you choose to make changes, do it from love — not shame.
Move your body, nourish it, care for it. Not because you need to be “perfect,” but because you love yourself enough to honour your temple.

Another Reflection…

Why do we hide so much here in Australia?
Why don’t we allow female teachers to simply supervise girls in change rooms — showing them what healthy, comfortable body acceptance looks like? Perhaps that role-modelling is what young girls need most.
And here’s where I may differ from some: I believe there are two sexes — female and male. And we can honour that without shame, without confusion, and without losing the sacredness of our spaces.

What I Believe Deeply

✔️ A body is a body — it is not who you are.
✔️ Every wrinkle, every fold, every scar tells your story.
✔️ Hiding feeds shame. Embracing feeds love.
✔️ Self-love begins when you stop fighting your reflection.

A Question For You

👉 What is your relationship with your body?
👉 Do you hide, or are you learning to accept and love yourself?
👉 Why do you think women hide in change rooms here in Australia?

This may trigger some… but maybe that’s the point.

Maybe it’s time we open up the conversation.
Because real self-love doesn’t start “one day when we’re perfect.”
It starts now.
With the body you live in today.
Love it. Care for it. Honour it.
Because it’s yours.
And it’s beautiful.

Basil: The Fragrant Super Herb for Health & Flavour

Basil: The Fragrant Super Herb for Health & Flavour
Basil, a staple herb cherished for its lush green leaves and aromatic essence, is essential for anyone passionate about cooking and health. Beyond its culinary appeal, basil is celebrated for its nutritional and medicinal benefits, traced back to ancient cultures. This versatile herb is rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory properties, and essential vitamins which support everything from gut health to stress reduction and immunity boosting.

To maximise basil's freshness, it’s important to store it correctly—avoid refrigeration as it can blacken the leaves. Instead, keep the basil in a glass of water like cut flowers or freeze it with olive oil in ice cube trays for prolonged use. When incorporating basil into dishes, tear the leaves rather than chop to prevent browning and preserve flavor, and always add them at the end of cooking to maintain their vibrant taste.

There are countless delicious ways to integrate basil into meals. Create a homemade pesto with fresh basil, olive oil, garlic, and parmesan for versatile use in pasta and sandwiches. Basil's fresh leaves also add a punch to caprese salads, pizzas, and even smoothies, while basil can be steeped in hot water for a soothing tea or incorporated into beverages for a refreshing twist. Whether used fresh, dried, or blended, basil's aromatic charm and health benefits make it an invaluable addition to any culinary repertoire.

Why It's Time to Reconsider Wire Bras: A Wellness Perspective

Why It's Time to Reconsider Wire Bras: A Wellness Perspective
The blog post explores the potential health impacts of wire bras, emphasizing the importance of reevaluating their use for overall well-being. Highlighting the issues of restricted lymph flow, the article explains how tight underwire bras can impede the body's natural detoxifying process, possibly causing toxin buildup and related health complications. Furthermore, it discusses how wire bras can impact breast tissue by causing discomfort, soreness, and long-term changes due to constant pressure.

In addition to affecting breast health, the article points out the negative effects of wire bras on breathing and posture. Poorly fitted bras can limit lung capacity, which in turn impacts physical and mental health. Skin irritation and allergic reactions caused by synthetic materials are also noted, specifically for individuals with sensitive skin.

As a solution, the article suggests exploring alternatives to wire bras, such as wireless bras, sports bras, and bralettes, which offer support without compromising health. The post advocates for proper fitting to avoid undue pressure, taking regular breaks to maintain natural lymph flow, and reflecting on how clothing choices impact one's mental health and self-perception. Ultimately, choosing comfortable bras is presented as an essential aspect of a healthy lifestyle, encouraging readers to share their experiences and make informed decisions for better well-being.

I help people create wellness, abundance and to find their soul purpose

 
For years, I felt like I was pushed to my limits, not just physically but also mentally and emotionally. I believed that I was really all alone in my struggles and felt quite isolated.
The physical and emotional pain I experience was at times overwhelming.

Even thought I was living a healthy lifestyle, eating healthy food, exercising and doing meditation.  I was still lacking in energy and experienced pain. I really believed that I was doing everything to improve my situation. And one day that all changed when I was introduced to some products.
To be honest, I had used similar products before, so naturally I was very sceptical, but given that the person who introduced me to these was also working in the wellness field, just like myself - I took a leap of faith and decided to give them a go, after all what did I have to lose!

Since then my life has transformed, not on just a physical level, but also a mental, emotional and spiritual level. I get emotional just thinking about it all now and feel so incredibly blessed and grateful for this gift that was presented to me.
Now, I am living a life full of abundant wellness, I love my soul purpose and I am able to create abundance in life. 

I am now on a mission to create more empowered well-beings in the world and to share with you my learnings!

I welcome you to join our group of empowered well-beings and learn how you can also find freedom and ultimate wellness, just as I have,  with the knowledge and information we share amongst our exclusive and loving community.
