Hello and welcome back to STATE OF MIND. I’m Grace Kingswell and I’m a Nutritional Therapist, Breathwork Coach and Auricular Acupuncturist, and this is my podcast series all about health, functional medicine, sustainability, finding connection, diet and so much more.

I’m beyond excited to introduce you to the wonderful Annie Clark of Mind Body Bowl. Annie is one of the most intelligent, articulate, compassionate and downright kind souls I’ve had the pleasure to interview for my podcast and, in light of the current Corona virus situation, I hope you will find this episode on connection incredibly poignant. Annie and I recorded this at a time where we could frivolously condemn the “fake” connection via social media in favour of true, meaningful, physical connection with our community.

Well I think one thing that this current social distancing situation is showing us is that actually, we all have (thank goodness) at our fingertips an incredible resource through which we can find some comfort and connection during this difficult time.

This is one of those episodes that just gets better and better as it goes on, and I really hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed chatting to Annie.

As a final note, I’ve made available via my website a £5 eBook on Immunity. It contains my 4 main recommendations for supporting our bodies right now, and delves someway into the science behind how the immune system works. There’s no supplements, food recommendations (although there are a few recipes at the back), or expensive potions for you to buy 0 just sound, scientific advice on supporting you body’s first line of defence. I hope it helps you.

Hello and welcome back to STATE OF MIND, I’m Grace Kingswell and I’m a Nutritional Therapist, cold water swimmer, Auricular Acupuncturist and Breathwork coach, and this is my podcast series all about health, nutrition, lifestyle medicine, sustainability and so much more.

Today I’m talking to Siwan Quinn Bratton, BSc(Hons), Lic.Ac., CMIR, BSS-Do (T) and Jonathan Tarr (Lic.Ac., CMIR, DCHAc., BSS-Do (T), the husband and wife duo behind the helm of the prestigious College of Auricular Acupuncture. I recently studied with them to become an auricular acupuncturist and I thought it would be an amazing opportunity to get them on the podcast to talk about Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and how Eastern forms of medicine can be so useful and vital in our Western world.

We discuss what meridians are, how the Chinese 5 Elements work, whether you can really tell what’s going on in someone’s body just by looking at their ear and how the renowned battlefield acupuncture protocol for pain works.

As ever, if you enjoy this episode I would be beyond grateful if you could help me to spread the word about state of mind by sharing the episode to your Instagram stories and writing me a rave review on the apple podcasts app.

Hello and welcome back to STATE OF MIND. I’m Grace Kingswell and I’m a Nutritional Therapist, Breathwork Coach and Auricular Acupuncturist, and this is my podcast series all about health, functional medicine, sustainability, finding connection, diet and so much more.

Today, in the final episode of series 4, I’m on location in Australia with male model, actor, designer, documentary maker, father ran business owner, Rhys Uhlich. I took the opportunity to interview Rhys when my husband and I were in Australia visiting family on Phillip Island at the start of this year. I’d followed Rhys on social media for a while and lovely his incredibly sensitive and thoughtful take on life. One day it might be him doing up an old defender, and the next getting all spiritual and discussing male mental health - which is something we chat extensively about in this episode actually.

His journey to where ehe is now is really interesting and I think proves that life is never linear, straightforward or logical - it is what we make of it, and what we create from it is up to each of us.

As a final note, I’ve made available via my website a £5 eBook on Immunity. It contains my 4 main recommendations for supporting our bodies right now, and delves someway into the science behind how the immune system works. There’s no supplements, food recommendations (although there are a few recipes at the back), or expensive potions for you to buy 0 just sound, scientific advice on supporting you body’s first line of defence.
