Hello and welcome to STATE OF MIND. I’m Grace Kingswell, I’m a Nutritional Therapist and Lifestyle Medicine Advocate and this is my series all about health, mental wellbeing, state of mind, the environment, creating sustainable practices and finding true connection with yourself, those around you and with nature.
I am so thrilled to bring you this incredible episode with Director of Incredible Oceans, Ian Rowlands.
Incredible Oceans is an organisation that uses the arts, science, education and spectacular events to shed light on the desperate state of our oceans. He is a journalist; conservationist; scientist; wildlife tracker; guide; festival organiser; charity founder; arts lover; environmental activist and wild soul. He’s tracked down bears, birds and blue whales from the Arctic to the Antarctic, Asia and the Amazon and along the way explored spirit, shamanism, coaching and communication.
He’s passionate about us humans needing to reconnect with our living world and some of the things he tells me in this episode literally blow my mind....
This is a beautifully powerful episode and Ian talks eloquently and insightfully about the changes we all need to make.

Lea Sednaoui: The Blood Type Diet

Hello and welcome to STATE OF MIND. I’m Grace Kingswell, I’m a Nutritional Therapist and Lifestyle Medicine Advocate and this is my series all about health, mental wellbeing, state of mind, the environment, creating sustainable practices and finding true connection with yourself, those around you and with nature.
In this weeks episode I'm talking to Lea Sednaoui (@chewchoose), chef and follower of the Blood Type Diet. Lea was struggling with her health when she turned 30, she was sluggish, overweight, sleeping badly, eating excessive amounts of animal protein and she turned it all around to be the vibrant and energetic person she is now. The Blood Type diet is, duh, different for each blood type and you stick to foods that are beneficial for your type as dictated by founder and geneticist, Dr D'Adamo.
We also talk about our modern fascination with eating the same foods over and over again (hello overnight oats with nut butter), our Western sense of entitlement surrounding food, and how we're all missing a trick by not including anything more varied - not just for our health but also our tastebuds!
Lea's food is an incredible fusion of Lebanese and French cuisine and she's passionate about slow cooking, slow living and really embracing our culinary heritage.
For all the BTS you can find me, @gracekingswell or gracekingswell.com for all things Nutrition related.

My goal is to inspire everyone to get back to peak health. I recognise that being on the periphery of orthodox thought can be completely liberating because it allows you to explore niche lifestyle techniques that can have a profound impact on someone's physical health.
The second part of this sound bite is directed towards everyone's favourite meal, breakfast, and why I've completely overhauled not only what I eat, but when I eat it too. I realised that my energy wasn't great and that I was probably struggling with some blood sugar issues - always needing carby foods, a sweet treat after a meal and a snack close at hand. Well, if you want to stabilise your hunger cravings and realign with your body then this episode is for you!
As ever, please leave me a review as this really helps to get more people hearing the podcast!
