Confessions of an Israylitess: You Reap What You Sow

After a long wait, a few weeks ago, i finally got around to getting myself a good supply of some really fabulous treats from…

Hiya, Leah Salmon here on this sunny December afternoon!

My new book Budget Behaviour & Belief is out in just 2 days (Sun 9th Dec) and I wanted to give you something hot off the press.

"Budget Belief Behaviour - Boost these B's Beat disease" is a simple guide to…

(Taken from "Budget, Behaviour & Belief - Boost these B's to beat disease" out 9th Dec at www.budgetbehaviourbelief.com) 

If our ancestor from 200 – 300yrs ago could see some of us now, they’d be disgusted at how…

Yep, that's right I'm happy to announce that I've moved the date of the launch of "Budget Behaviour & Belieff" to 9th December 2012, please give me a moment to explain why this is such and good thing for me and you. 

As I sat down to put the finishing touches on the book over the…

"When I was getting into personal development and life coaching some years ago, after I realised it wasn’t just some wishy washy pseudo science for day dreamers as I had previously thought, I came across many truly inspired quotes and one liners, so of which changed my entire perspective on many…

I found a link to this recipe on a facebook group I'm in and I thought I'd try it out. 

The recipe called for oats which we don;t eat so I replaced this with ground almonds and another batch I made with coconut flour, both of which turned out wonderfully, so here the recipe and…

One of the common misconceptions about eating wholesome natural foods is that it’s really time consuming.

Firstly, bear in mind that our skewed idea of how long it should take to make food is based on the fact that you can now make a whole meal in 10 minutes in the microwave, or make a 2 min…

When I discovered the nutrient density of fermented foods, I whipped up a batch of simple sauerkraut from white cabbage straight away. 

It was nice, but I thought it could be jazzed up a bit. 

So when I was flicking through my copy of Nourishing…

After a morning smoothie or bone broth and a hearty breakfast, I'm normally not too hungry until dinner. But I've found my appetite is bigger now that I'm breastfeeding  than it was when I was pregnant. So when I got hungry the other day, a nut milk, green smoothie or a piece of fruit wasn't…

I'm normally quite boring when it comes to green smoothies, my favorite combination of oranges bananas and spinach is the usual suspect in our house, but I thought I'd try some different recipes to spice things up a bit. 

Winter is setting in so juices will be primarily replaced by nut…

It's been 7 weeks since our gorgeous little princess popped out and finally, after a few weeks of exercise, a high whole foods diet, attempting to get as much rest as possible and more recently (and most significantly) a reduction in my sugar intake from fresh, frozen and dried fruit, my…

With 5 children of my own and at 10 nephews and nieces never too far away, I've nursed my fair share of coughs and colds and each time I try out different natural remedies I've found to see how they work. 

Just this week, I've come across a few that I think would be useful for you to…

It all happened 18 days ago.

It was a Monday evening, and like every evening for the past 2 weeks, I was breathing through another set of random irregular Braxton hicks (practice contractions with a rubbish name :-).

Even though I was only a week overdue, I‘d been…

Its 7am, the alarm goes off on my iPhone and I do my best to ignore it. Knowing myself I’ve set 3 more alarms 5 minutes apart until my mind realises the importance of what I’m trying to do. Stay balanced. The night before I’d set out my running gear so I had no excuse. My goal today was do hill sprints, 10 of them in the…

When I started my health journey, I realised I was more “health unconscious” than “health conscious”.  I wanted to cut out the crappy chemicals, sugars, trans fats, MSG etc from my life, so I decided to buy most of my foods in health foods shops or the healthy eating section of supermarkets. I…
