Covid-19 has brought change upon many of us and change is so often accompanied with stress, anxiety- and affected sleep which only serves to compound the problem.  In having to entirely change my way of working to be largely remote, I too have reached for my sleep herbs and altered my habits to help me fall sleep more quickly, or to calm that 3 am mind-buzz. A good night’s sleep is not only important for mental well being but also has further-reaching effects on your cardiovascular system, blood sugar regulation and your immune system! So tune in to find out how you can help prepare yourself for a better night’s sleep.

I’m Nikki and I am a registered nutritionist who helps people who are generally in their 40s and 50s feel alive, thrive in the workplace and look and feel better than they ever have before.

My pathway to this career is perhaps not a typical route. I led a very carefree and fun life in an exciting corporate role through my 20s and 30s but I was working long hours, eating and drinking a little too much and not taking care of myself. This lifestyle was not sustainable and in my 40s, I hit the wall, suffered a serious illness and had to take some time off work.

When I returned to my job, I had very little energy and felt emotionally and physically drained, in a body that ached and creaked. This was the catalyst that sparked my interest in the power of nutrition in health and disease. How had I reached this age, knowing more about how my car worked than my body? And yet what I put into my body controls all its functions, right? Just madness!

Seeking the help of a nutritionist, I started to turn my life around. My energy and joie de vivre returned. I was so impressed with the results that I decided to quit my job and retrain as a nutritionist myself. I didn’t want anyone to feel the same as I had. I didn’t want them to struggle with their identity and feel that they had lost their way in the workplace and in their personal lives.

You may be experiencing some of what I was feeling right now. We have all been through turbulent times and a lot of upheaval and uncertainty over the last 8 months. You may not be feeling on top form. If some of this resonates with you, I would love you to join me at my workshop where I can show you the path towards a healthier and happier lifestyle. And remember that healthy eating isn’t about following a gruelling diet and punishing yourself. In contrast, it means caring for yourself, both body and mind with nutritious food that leaves you energised and raring to go.
