Better late than never as they say! – Karron ’ s story
I write this story some 6 months after my hysterectomy, I was one of those people that used to pop in and read all the stories, which I must confess really helped me, especially the hints and the special things that would help. So here is my story. Sorry it is late.
I presented at A&E this time last year with gallstone pancreatitis seriously ill, at the time the medics found I had a mass in my womb, which I did not know about, I just thought I had a bulky tummy. Turns out my womb was full of fibroids, totally obstructing the whole of the womb. This made sense retrospectively as I was starting to have problems with my b...

10 Foods To Eat For A Bloat-Free Life
By Amy Marturana for Well+Good
When bloating, cramping, or heartburn strikes, my brain goes into (WTF) detective mode, calculating every last morsel that passed through my lips and evaluating it after the fact as a potential threat. (CSI, dinner plate edition.)
Instead of trying to eliminate everything that might cause an issue, what if you could feel better by adding certain foods?
Clinical herbalist Guido Masé prefers this route. Masé, the co-owner of Urban Moonshine--whose organic bitters are designed to get your digestive system in tip-top shape--and author of The Wild Medicine Solution: Healing with Aromatic, Bit...

I Gave Up Coffee For A Month -- And Here's What Happened
Photographed by Alice Gao.
The idea to give up caffeine came to me when I was -- per usual -- up very late one night. I drink a lot of caffeinated beverages, and I started to wonder whether I might get more rest without it, and what it would be like to not have the nervous buzz of caffeine so frequently at my fingertips. Although Gilmore Girls tells me being hyper-caffeinated is a positive and quirky state, health professionals do not.
I'm far from unique in my sleep-deprived, artificially energized norm. The vast majority of the population is living on less than adequate sleep, according to Christopher Drake, PhD, direc...

6 Yoga Experts Reveal Their Go-To Essential Oils
By: Shira Atkins
We asked some of our favorite yoga teachers to share their secret formulas for staying calm and centered.
Maybe you've been to yoga class and your nose perks up wistfully when your teacher walks by. Or perhaps you've gotten a massage, and noticed how certain scents make you feel invigorated, while others calm you down. The age-old practice of aromatherapy that we're referring to is powerful, and somewhat mystical, even for the non-believer.
Our sense of smell is not only functional, but also intuitive: it's saturated with wisdom about the world around as well as our internal universe. Yogis are sensual ...

How to Make Something You Don't Really Enjoy a Habit
Something amazing happened this morning. Instead of hopping out of bed, having breakfast, then plunging myself headlong into work, I casually sipped my coffee, ate my muesli, then wandered into my office for a 30-minute meditation session before even turning on my computer. What's amazing isn't that I've done this once, but that I've been doing it for months. Even more amazing is that I love it. Meditation is not an easy habit to develop, because the reward is not immediate or obvious. Meditation is not an easy habit to develop, because the reward is not immediate or obvious.
