We’re so grateful for every kind word and every family who chooses to make the switch to toxin-free sleep.

Every purchase supports our mission — to create safe, breathable sleepwear that’s gentle on skin, kind to the planet, and designed to last.

Why is it that when we get sick, we forget about tried and tested home remedies that work extremely well and don't cost alot of money? Like Eucalyptus inhalations to clear our lungs and sinuses. Salt water flushes to clear sinuses so they don't get infected. A drop of garlic oil to free up blocked or sore ears. Here I have crushed garlic in a tea bag with a little olive oil. You put a drop into a sore ear, morning and night and it will clear any bugs in there. The tea bag is to stop the fibres of the garlic entering your ear, as you only want the juice. I have strained this through a tissue before also.

Here's a rainbow of colour and simple lunch: Home-grown Roasted Pumpkin, Parsnip, Garlic, Carrot and Celery Soup, garnished with Pepitas which are high in Magnesium, served with a picking plate of Mandarin, Beetroot, Leftover cooked Eggplant and Asparagus and Artichoke for pre-biotics. I'd say this would serve your gut very well for fibre and the amount of polyphenols and nutrients to give you good energy for the afternoon.

I got a sneaky new veg in tonight - TURNIP! That's the good thing about a stew - is adding in lots of veg for flavour and nutrients. This has Onion, Garlic, Turnip, Carrot, White mushroom, Sh*take mushroom, Fennel seeds, Carraway seeds and Grass Fed Beef with steamed broccolini and Garlic Mash. Yes, loading up on the garlic to kill off some viruses hanging around.. and it makes your skin GLOW, and it thins the blood and its good for just about everything.

Great weather to be Educated on soil health, diversity and natural indigenous practices to improve our crops. Nomad Farms and Inkwell Wines hosted us today, sharing a wealth of knowledge and inspiration. Oh how I can improve to my garden, vineyard and practice. Its all about Diversity, so eat a variety of different species of plants regularly. Think about adding in herbs to vary it as well. This helps your Fungi, Phylum and Microbes in your Gut to work well together, to foster a healthier, happier environment.

Just sharing that salad from earlier dressed in olive oil, topped with chicken thighs baked in the oven in tamari, honey & chinese 5 spice. Topped with Guacamole left over from the lunch video. It was delicious and fresh, perfect for the warmer weather.
