Happy to be celebrating our 100th episode of this podcast! With special guests Cindra and Luke from Conscious Couples (conscious-couples.com) and Sam, my husband.

Reminiscing on our past one hundred episodes, we want to say a big THANKYOU to you all for being on this journey with us. Mel talks about the evolution of this podcast and where we are today.

The four of us discuss everything from relationships to being a holistic health provider, exercise as medicine and what does being conscious looks like. We talk about honesty within our relationships and the reality of self-development in long term relationships, giving some real-life examples of stuff from our own marriages.

We know you will resonate with this episode and get an insight into behind the scenes of the podcast too!

First of all, I am thinking of all of you! Hope you are safe and well. We will get through this together.

I wanted to jump in and share my thoughts on the current pandemic and offer support and assistance as much as I can. I sent this information out in my newsletter to my clients, but thought it valuable to share with you all!

On this episode, I share my tips and insights on this time and what we can do to stay healthy, both physically and mentally.

I created a loose “routine” with activities myself and my daughter can do throughout the day, including meal times. Staying calm is important, controlling your stress response assists your immune system.

Switching off is vital, controlling what is coming in and the sources we are being exposed to. Connecting with other people, via the phone and video calling technology, has been a saving grace for me!

Finding ways to experience joy will have a physiologically positive effect on you too.

Boost your immune system with echinacea, andrographis, astragalus (not for autu-immune affected people) and elderberry are useful herbs. Seek advice from your holistic health practitioner.

Essential oils are all anti-microbial (better than anti-bacterial), so use them everywhere! Lavender, lemon, clove, tea tree, eucalyptus. I have made a herbal hand sanitisers, available on my website.

I have immune packs on sale too! And still seeing clients online.

Tune in to hear more of my tips and ways I can support you and head over to mgherbs.com/shop for immune packs, hand sanitiser and to book your online consults.

Thankyou as always for tuning in, if you have a moment we would love for you to leave a rating and review on iTunes!

Until next time, take care of yourselves xo
