These are the FUNdamentals of health.
IGet these right before doing all the “cool” or expensive “biohacks”
As per my talk @healthoptimisationsummit This weekend, yhe body NEEDS these to thrive.
✋🏻STOP & CHECK now: How many of them have you got nailed?
A house-plant wouldn’t flourish without enough sunlight, water, nutrients, bacteria - so why would you?
It’s common-sense.
And common-sense needs to be more common.
🩺Can you remember a time that you were recommended any/many of these by a traditional doctor?
I bet not.
The prescription for OPTIMAL HEALTH is very simple:
💤Sleep well
🥩Eat well
💦Hydrate well
💨Breathe well
🏃🏼♂️Move well
☀️Sun well
👣Ground well
👯♂️Relate well
❤️Love well
💦F**k very well”
And
💩Detox Well
-Quote by Dr Ted. My addition is the Detox Well part :)
Get these things right, you’ll flourish and then reversing any dis-ease becomes far easier.
But until you do, you won’t operate at your best.
Learn how to do all these things well step by step by joining the Fundamentals of Health course (link in my bio).

💖 Self love Sunday 💖
In clinic this week, recognising the need for self love and caring for oneself was a common theme.
Over Christmas and New Year, many of us felt that we had fell off the "bandwagon" and indulged a little "too much" - this is completely ok! Too many of us make ourselves feel guilty for just... living a life.
Forgive and be kind to yourself ❤️
I believe it IS a form of self love when you listen to your body and recognise when you do not have the capacity to do everything, and letting go when you need to.
When you're feeling demotivated and low, reserve your precious energy for the essentials. Grab a takeaway and relax, it's going to be fine.
Living well is not straightforward. It's a wobbly journey and full of peaks and troughs! It's not easy to be 💯 all the time. When you feel a wobble coming on, know that you can pick yourself back up again, and again. The more you do it, the more you will bounce back. You are strong and resilient.
When you feel low, I would like you to think about how you feel and what you think your body needs. Write it all down. How does the food you are eating make you feel? Do certain foods energise you or deplete you? Simply having an awareness of how foods make you feel in the moment, helps you make better choices later.
Once you have an understanding of what nourishes you, use food as a tool for self-love. Feed yourself the food your body deserves and needs, because you are worthy. Cook yourself a delicious and nutritious meal and enjoy it! Love your body and all it does for you, because it's the only one you have.
Here for you if you need me.
Lots of love, Laura 💖
