What is ‘Holistic Pillars’ all about?

My strong passion for health and wellness was ignited by a personal journey of transformation from illness and trauma to discovery, growth, recovery and celebration. My journey has been all about digging deep to understand the root causes of our health issues, spotting the areas screaming for change, and then taking some giant leaps to set a new direction and ultimately return to good health. Throughout the transformation process, curiosity was key. The more curious I became, the more doors and opportunities opened. The more I learnt, the more [...]

Understanding Inflammation and Metabolic Syndrome

As I explored the reasons for our poor health, I began to understand the ins and outs of Chronic Inflammation and Metabolic Syndrome - and the impact they were having on our life. We didn’t realise these two things were playing havoc with our health. I began to explore what we could do to reduce the risks and restore our health. Lots of questions and lots to absorb…not to mention, a very confronting moment when you realise like in our case, that our lifestyle was making us unwell. That’s when [...]

How to build your support crew

We were unfit (or rather not as fit as we should have been), overweight and pretty stressed out. We were living a busy, chaotic life and it was making us unwell. We were very happy, but not living our best life! Knowing you need to change is one thing, making it happen is another! Change can be difficult, uncomfortable and often confronting… it can fill you with doubt, insecurity, and uncertainty. When I commenced my road to a new lifestyle some 5 or so years ago I knew I just [...]
