Your light environment affects more than just your sleep cycles

Even the centralized MDs are getting the wake up call.
https://ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIR.0000000000001388

Circadian biology = More sun = darkness at night = more water production by the mitochondrial matrix = more mitocondrial melatonin production = proper cortisol levels in AM = optimized BDNF levels = less chance of leptin resistance = less chance of chronic disease.

Any light at night causes leptin resistance = Blue light at night is by far the worst offender = because it makes melatonin vanish = leptin resistance = mitochondriac and melanopsin wisdom and proves the food guru fail......

LIGHT'S EFFECT > FOOD EFFECT
All food is at its core is matter created downstream from sunlight. Photosynthesis wisdom on display.
When the world is moving away from your biologic necessities becoming fearful is fruitless. That's not the point given a dire situation. It's learning how to control your fear, harness it and use it as fuel to change your conditions of existence. Fear shouldn't shut us down; it should wake us up to increase the fidelity of our awareness and focus to overcome the present challenge we face and crush it.

Immune Systems Need Night, aka Darkness
In experimental models, chronic artificial light (including reversed light/dark cycles) suppressed anti-apoptotic signals and Bcl-2 in lymphoid tissues during systemic inflammation—an immune landscape more vulnerable to damage. Darkness is part of immune hygiene: dim evenings, regular sleep, bright daytime.

How much exercise should I do?
Glad you asked.
You don’t have to choose between Zone 2 (you can talk but can’t sing) and HIIT (definitely can’t talk).

Build your foundation with walking, strengthen your frame with lifting, and sprinkle in short intensity for metabolic spark.

That’s science-based, osteo-approved, and achievable for any body. 🌞

🌿 WHY WALKING BALANCES YOUR HORMONES

You don’t need fancy biohacks to reset your hunger and mood — just your shoes and the outdoors.

✨ Leptin – your “I’m full” hormone. Regular walking improves leptin sensitivity so your brain actually hears when you’ve eaten enough.

✨ Ghrelin – your “I’m hungry” hormone. Gentle movement lowers ghrelin spikes that drive cravings when you’re stressed or sleep-deprived.

✨ GLP-1 – the gut hormone that slows digestion and supports blood-sugar balance. Walking after meals boosts it naturally.

✨ Mood + Motivation – rhythmic movement and sunlight increase serotonin and dopamine — your natural antidepressant duo.

A daily walk is a hormonal reset button — no prescription required.
Start with 20 minutes, preferably outdoors after a meal. 🌤️

I am ready.
Ready to come out and share my gut healing journey and demystify the condition so many people (predominantly women) suffer with.
CONSTIPATION.
After 54 years of recalcitrant constipation I have finally found a solution.
Turns out it’s easier than I thought.
Follow me along as I’ll get real and raw and might even save a few people from all the mistakes I made.

My new toy… and another data point 📊

I’ve just added a full body composition scale to my clinical toolkit — and I’m especially interested in what it tells us about:

• Visceral fat (the inflammatory kind around your organs)
• Lean muscle mass (your metabolic engine)
• Hydration status (hello minerals + microcirculation)
• Bone density (structure = function)

I’m lining up all the ducks 🦆 ahead of my 40 Day Reset launch… but before we change anything, we need one thing:

📍 Where are you NOW?

Data gives direction.
Direction gives results.
Results change lives.

For me, I’m focusing on two pillars right now:
💪 Building more muscle mass
⚡️ Optimising my electrolyte profile

Because it all starts in the gut.
If the intestine isn’t clear, calm, and hydrated… you can’t absorb the nutrients required to repair tissue, regulate your nervous system, or build collagen-rich bone and fascia.

Why would an Osteopath care about this?

Simple.

When I put my hands on your body:
• inflamed tissues resist change
• dehydrated fascia loses glide
• nutrient deficiency slows healing
• poor microcirculation creates stagnation

If we don’t address the roots, my manual work becomes a band-aid.
And you deserve more than short-term relief.

I’m here for:
✅ calmer guts
✅ more resilient nervous systems
✅ stronger muscle + bone
✅ healthier microcirculation
✅ long-term change

Muscle tension, gut irritation, wired-and-tired nervous systems… they’re rarely “just” tight muscles.

They’re messages.

And we’re about to decode them together.

Stay tuned — 40 Days to Reset is coming.
Are you curious where your baseline is?

Town off those night time lights. Replace with red or orange globes.

Artificial Light At Night Is A Hidden Diabetes Risk
This concise paper flags ALAN as a modifiable risk factor for insulin resistance and diabetes. Small changes scale: minimize artificial light at night, use circadian-friendly lighting, don blue blockers, and let darkness do metabolic cleanup.

Aussie Camino.
We had rain,gale force winds, snakes, leeches , koala, emu , echidna, loads of cows and sheep and a great deal of laughter, encouragement and incredibly important time in silence to contemplate
I can 100% recommend this adventure and even with some pretty interesting weather we still had so much fun.

I’ve been out walking.
Back to share with you all in 4 days.
I am still alive and very very happy

✨ It depends…
DNA Matters

If I’ve assessed your DNA profile, we work around that.
🧬 It might be:
• Low histamine
• High starch / Low starch
• Lots of fruit / Little fruit

➤ Your genes guide your plan.

Quality First

For most people I say:
🥩 Choose the best-quality animal products you can afford.
✅ Grass-fed ✅ Pasture-raised ✅ Wild-caught seafood

Fibre or No Fibre?

🌱 If your gut bacteria can handle fibre, make it organic.
🧄 If it can’t (and I’ll help you find out 😉)…
➤ Choose low-fibre vegetables & fruits.

The Non-Negotiables 🚫

• No processed foods
• No added sugar
• Limit coffee & tea
• Zero alcohol

Final Motivation 💪

40 days of reset, clarity & control.
✨ You can do it — and your body will thank you.

Day 1 40 days HOARP reset.
I am testing urinary pH to see what my baseline is.
WHY?
Low urine pH means your body is pushing out extra acid to protect blood chemistry.
Optimal: ~6.7
Too low (
