Fitbit Alta HR Review

A while back I did a review of the Fitbit Charge 2 and it was such a popular post. So much so, that I’ve teamed up with Fitbit to bring you a review of the new Fitbit Alta HR. While I loved my Charge 2, there were a few issues I had in regards to the size…

Does Dairy Free Help Acne?

It’s been over two months since I committed to a full dairy-free diet. For the most part, sticking to the dairy free diet has been really easy. I’ve become obsessed with plant milk and coconut yoghurt, and I haven’t had a bit of my beloved Whittakers Creamy Milk in over two months. I sort of missed chocolate at…

Apricot and Almond Muesli Recipe

I’ve never been big on breakfast, and it’s only recently that I’ve actually found myself starting to enjoy eating the first meal of the day. For me it was always smoothies, and while I still 100% love these, it is nice to mix it up and alternate options for breakfast too. The other thing I’ve always loved…

Dairy Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Chocolate chip cookies are one of my favourite indulgences, and when I went dairy free I wanted to still be able to enjoy this delicious baked treat…. but without having to break my no dairy diet. I did a little looking around on the internet, but some recipes contained ingredients I either didn’t like (such as peanut…

A Review of the Shakti Mat

Sometimes I find myself getting a bit of back pain, especially in my lower back and my neck and shoulders. It’s no surprise really, when you see how much time I spend on the computer every day. While I try to retain correct posture, it’s really really hard to sit correctly and the body tends to just…

Wait, I Put On Weight?

So it’s been about two and a half months since I joined the gym, and I’ve been trying to go 4-5 times a week at the moment, and I’ve actually managed this most weeks!  I’ve  really surprised myself with how dedicated I’ve become to going, and how much fun I’m actually having as I am definitely not a…

The Best Berry Protein Smoothie

I’ve never been much of a breakfast person. I don’t really enjoy eating cereals and toast on a regular basis, and while I do love a cooked breakfast, that’s more of a weekend thing. For years I’d miss breakfast completely, and as a result I’d just end up eating filler foods like muesli bars or muffins mid-morning…

Little Olive Tree Fractal Soy Candles

I’m on a serious candle craze at the moment and I think it must have something to do with the fact that it’s getting darker faster at night and it’s also getting much colder. There’s something nice and cozy about lighting a candle, putting on the heater, and snuggling up with a good book. It’s so relaxing…

Make Your Own Natural Hand Soap

For the past six months I’ve been making my own natural hand soap. Ever since I realised what was in the store brought soaps I was using, I’ve been giving them a wide berth. Natural hand soap isn’t something that is easily available with only a very few brands selling them. Those that are available are often…

Choosing a Scent for Your Home

I pride myself on having a clean and organised home, but something we can often forget about is the scent in the home. Home scents instantly set the mood and the tone right from when you walk through the door, and I think it’s such an important first impression. When it comes to finding scents for my…
