We have had such beautiful  weather in the last week that blossom and leaves have appeared.

In the parks at the weekend I saw people wearing shorts and light tee shirts.

It does seem a tempting idea but – I am going to sound like your granny here – it is best to stay warm until summer is properly here.

A run of warm weather in spring is not the same as summer.  The spring winds are still cold and you can catch a chill quite easily. in fact very easily.  A lot of health problems are as a result of failing to behave according to the season.  Wear a light coat, and put the sandals back in the cupboard!

If you have never tried lemon and ginger tea now’s your chance!

We will be giving all the visitors to our talk on 24th March a lovely cup of this gorgeous tea.

The sharpness of the lemon and the spicy ginger combine to give you all round goodness. Yes, this is a great drink for Spring as it helps your metabolism detox and boosts increasing energy as spring turns to summer.

You can get this in a sachet of pre-made tea but we prefer the real thing. Slices of real lemon and real ginger into boiling water. Let it cool a little and then sip.

at 50 Connect in the category alternative health.

The 50 connect website encourages people over 50 to “live life to the full” which fits exactly with Andrew’s views on health. One of the secrets of good health is to adapt to the seasons, and the article will gives more background to the principles.

Head over and read it! You don’t have to be over 50 to look after your health!

The sun is out at last! Spring has arrived and the leaves are starting to turn green.

Our bodies are regaining energy after the winter but they still need to be gently supported in the Spring. So don’t immediately turn to cold food even thought the sun is out.

Soups can be made easily and quickly and are the perfect spring time meal. Lighter than the rich winter casseroles, soups help your body to make the most of the natural detox going on at the moment. They are a great way to get lots of nutritious goodness. And for an extra twist to really help your body add a little spice. It will boost your energy.

We are getting a good response to Andrew Loosely’s talk on 24th March. It seems everyone is interested in losing weight and learning about the natural health approach to diet. Of course it is a great deal more pleasant to work with your body, rather than punish yourself.

People are very surprised to hear that it is easier to lose the additional toxins and the weght in the spring. Usually weight loss is a number one New Year resolution and – just as common – the weight is difficult to shift. The natural health way means that you are in tune with the season.
