Low Tox Life

Welcome to a week of focusing on all that we CAN do to for our health from TODAY while living in a time of pandemic. There are many public health trials and assessments being made ‘out there' but rather than waiting and being worried, why not actually remind ourselves of what lifestyle tweaks we can make and foods, herbs and supplements we can incorporate right now that help us be as strong...

I am excited to bring you this week's wonderful interview with one of my favourite Naturopathic Doctors.

He received his doctorate in naturopathic medicine from Bastyr University. He lives in Seattle,...

Joining me for the 3rd time on the show, Dr Leila Masson, this time talking about heavy metal toxicity in children - but as she rightly points out, you want to ensure you don't have metal toxicity at any age, for as we get older, they are a risk factor in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's so it's by no means a show reserved for parents. Leila is a Sydney based speciali...

In this week's show, the final show of our Low Tox Mind mini series, I speak to one of my favourite meditation teachers Tom Cronin, also an author and filmmaker of the recent film/book The Portal. Tom spent 26 years in finance markets as one of Sydney's leading bond and swap brokers. He discovered meditation in the early stages of his career, when the anxiety and chaos he was experiencing had hit...

It's hard to put into words the crux of what this show is all about because it's a way of thinking and being as new to me as it perhaps might be to you too. You're just going to have to trust me on this one that if you've experienced any discord in your life at all either through bad dreams, phobias or fighting with others or with yourself, it's a show that will offer many benefits to you. Have yo...

What do you do when your bridesmaid ends their life?

In this week's show as a part of our health series, we're talking to Zhenya Gerson about poop - specifically in the context of colonics and enema, with a practitioner who has multiple top doctors referring to her here in Sydney. There's a lot of fear and stigma around using colonics, so I thought I'd get the low down - and yes, everything seems to have a double entendre right now! We talk about co...

This week's guest, Charles Eisenstein, always has me asking more questions than I had to start with. I honestly wanted to talk for many more hours.

This year the podcast will still cover the broad scope of topics that leading a low tox life encompasses from food to body to home, mind, parenting, relationships and more but we're going to do it in series where for 4-5 shows we focus on one aspect so we can dig deep and explore different aspects of the topic before moving to the next one. I'm...

Well, Rob Greenfield is 1 week shy of completing a whole year of doing so and today we talk about his latest “Food Freedom” project, talking everything from how he planned, travelled, what medical precautions he took, what he found hard and what was easy and what he's looking...

When I first had Dan Palmer on the show, the feedback was a resounding “More Please!”. Why? Because often when big decisions come up in life, we don't know how to navigate them from a place of empowerment. We are so often consumed by the uncertainty of the outcomes, driven by fear and even when we decide, we can be preoccupied with “Is this the right decision?”. Dan Palmer...
