Why I Became A Nutritional Therapist

My interest in nutrition began as a result of my own health journey, which was a struggle with chronic illness and the need to regain my health once again. I found that the changes I made to my diet and lifestyle were profound at helping me to facilitate my recovery. Whilst incredibly personal, I found...

This week we have seen we are featured in an article on @real_homes which features 20 eco-friendly ways to makeover your period home – and our candles are one of them! 🕯🌍 ☺️
.
“New Year's Resolution to be kinder to the planet? These are the best ways you can make your home eco-friendly. Every time we buy something, it has an environmental impact – whether that’s using natural resources and energy in its manufacture, being transported miles to get to our homes, or made by workers who aren’t paid a fair wage.
It’s near impossible to be 100 per cent virtuous in our choices, but we can make a difference by being more conscious of what we are buying, and by being less wasteful. One way is SCENT YOUR HOME IN A WAY THAT'S GOOD FOR MIND, BODY AND PLANET
.
Who doesn't love a scented candle? We're definitely fans! 🥰
.
However, lots of candles are made from paraffin wax (which is a product of the fossil fuel petroleum). With the growing trend in sustainability, soy candles have been gaining increasing popularity as they offer a non-toxic and sustainable alternative to paraffin, much better for the planet 🌍 and your home 🏡.
.
ARDERE have paired 100% organic natural wax and lead-free cotton wicks with an abundance of pure essential oils to help create a candle 🕯 that is not only non-toxic but also helping you to relax and boost your wellbeing. You can also relax safe in the knowledge that the candles are all cruelty free 🐰. Plus they are hand-poured in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 with an average burn time of 64 hours.” - REAL HOMES

It’s the first weekend of the new year 🗓 so let’s set the intention of cooking 🥘 healthy meals for the first full working week ahead of us.
.
A warming lunch time winner is definitely our Mediterranean Feta Stew, perfect to batch cook and heat up for your lunches at work 💼 🍛☺️
.
Or swipe right for a dish bursting with flavour and all of its nutritious goodness is our Moroccan Chicken Tajine served with Cauliflower rice which is sure to satisfy you after a long day at work. We know what a drag the first few weeks back at work can feel like😳, especially when its cold and dark out so early 🌓, therefore you always want to look for something hearty and nourishing to come home to 🤤🥰

“NEW YEAR, SAME ME”
.
There’s a massive phrase going round that we should become a “new person” and right all of our wrongs at the start of a new year; whether this involves our diet, our exercise regime (or lack thereof), and even our daily habits and personality traits.
.
It’s easy to step into self-criticising mode as we write long lists involving all of our flaws and how we can aim to be better in every way possible.
.
But really, we should be focussing on all of the positive assets surrounding ourselves. Ask yourself, what makes you unique to you? Is it your warmth and friendliness when you enter a room or meet somebody new, or is it your ability to make your friends laugh and smile when times get tough?
.
Instead of beating yourself up for all that you are not, celebrate all that you are for this year and all of the years to come.
.
Don’t get us wrong, there is nothing wrong with having goals to achieve and motivate yourself towards in the new year, but let’s stop being so hard on ourselves and trying to reinvent ourselves into something we aren’t.
.
Love yourself all year long!

NEW BLOG: HOW TO LIVE MORE MINDFULLY IN 2020 🙏🏻
.
If you’re looking to really get down to the core of what wellbeing is really about, then look no further! I have summarised some key tips for you that will help you to think and feel your best this year…
.
What is ‘mindfulness’?
.
Mindfulness has been recommended by the Department of Health and other healthcare professionals as a therapeutic practise that can help people to achieve an improved state of wellbeing. The idea is that we become more aware of our behaviours, thoughts, attitudes and actions in order to gain a better grasp on our lifestyles. It is a practise that involves being ‘mindful’ or aware of the present moment, and being able to remain focussed and in control of our feelings, thoughts and bodily sensations. The practise has been shown to significantly reduce stress and incite feelings of calmness and peace when practised on a regular basis.
.
I have compiled five top tips on how you can begin to practise mindful behaviour in different ways throughout your day… link in bio!

New year’s resolutions? Maybe one of them is to get your health on track for good? To improve your relationship with food? Or rid yourself of that fatigue that’s holding you back?

🎆NEW YEAR’S EVE🎇
.
As we head into a new decade, many of us reflect upon the last decade and look towards a new year and our goals for a healthier and happier version of ourselves.
.
What do you want to achieve? How do you want to look? More importantly, how would you like to feel?
.
The phrase “New Year, New Me” is often at the tip of everybody’s lips.
.
But what if there didn’t need to be a “New You”? What if there was a way to manage your health, eat healthy, delicious food and maintain a stable weight long-term?
.
In working with clients, our registered Nutritionist and Naturopath Lauren Windas (mBANT, CNHC) supports you on your journey to a sustainable healthy lifestyle.
.
When it comes to your diet, lifestyle, and any other contributing factors that could be impacting your health and wellbeing, Lauren helps you understand the basics of nutrition and meeting the demands of your unique body and its own individual requirements.
.
Whether it’s meal planning🍽, functional testing 🔬or specific supplement or lifestyle recommendations, everything is entirely bespoke based on your specific goals.
.
Lauren is taking bookings for appointments at her private nutrition clinic at @fitspacechelsea and whether you want to work with her on your relationship with food, your weight, digestive health, your energy (or all of the above!) then please email info@ardere.com or DM us for enquiries.
.
So let’s make 2020 your healthiest year yet!

As we start to break up for Christmas so many of us are excited to hit pause on work for a week, join in the festivities with loved ones and eat until your stomachs content.
.
But for some joining your family can be triggering, you may find yourself regressing to child-like states. Ensure you also care for yourself, become aware of any negative thought patterns stop them in their tracks by going outside, taking a deep breathe and coming back to centre. This is your Christmas just as much as anyone else, so never forget the practice of self-care.
