Roots and beginnings
My name is Anita Beardsley and I am a registered Naturopathic Nutritional Therapist. I am often asked what exactly that means and what planted that seed, so here is my story.
I have always loved food. Growing up my parents grew vegetables, herbs, fruit and Dad was forever foraging for wild mushrooms. We kept rabbits, goats, bees and chickens which we loved and gratefully ate their produce and them (much to my young hearts dismay!) Everything was cooked from scratch and takeaways were not something I ever knew. Our cupboards brimmed full of chutneys, honey, jam and home-brew too. We lived next door to a fascinating Naturopath (only now do I realise that’s what she was!), who always had a herbal tincture or natural remedy at hand. That was just how life was and I never questioned its authenticity.
Years later in my adult life things were different and somehow this ‘organic lifestyle’ was replaced by convenience to accommodate a busy life. Sound familiar? I did my best, as we all do, and didn't consider the significance.
During my first career as a sustainability practitioner I worked for a number of prestigious environmental charities. Here I learnt the importance of organic farming for the soil and human health. I started to see first hand the devastating effects our intensive farming practices and use of toxic pesticides were having on our nutritional status and long-term health. I worked with young children in the UK and India connecting them through Skype and food based projects encouraging them to explore health, culture, food, friendships etc. They grew herb gardens, learnt to cook each others native dishes and shared stories. What I began to notice was the impact of food on their physical, emotional and educational health - it was a light bulb moment.
