Liv Kaplan is a Sydney based Nutritionist and foodie with a huge passion for baking. In this episode Liv explains why she lives a low sugar lifestyle and the surprising effects it can have on our mood and our happiness levels, in fact, her journey to health began when she noticed a difference in her incidence of depression when she switched up her diet. We also discuss why Liv doesn't agree with the typical definition of depression...

The topic of mood, depression and anxiety is one that we touch on a lot in this episode. So many people are suffering with anxiety these days and it can often be linked to poor blood sugar regulation and not having the correct nutrients to fuel our brains properly - namely omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids, something that's hard to come by on a vegan diet or an omnivorous diet lacking in nutrients.

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.

Today I’m talking to the wonderful Ariane from Ftoxins, a polite abbreviation for something we should all be doing - putting our middle fingers up at the sources of toxicity in our lives.

One of these main sources is in our cosmetic products, and that’s what Ariane and her sister Delphine focus on with their blog and Instagram page, but they are also incredibly knowledgeable about the dangers surrounding EMFs (as emitted by our electronic devices), air quality, supplements and materials we commonly use in our kitchens like aluminium and plastic.

The girls provide safer swaps for their followers which is, I think, why they are so successful at what they do. They aren’t just explaining what the chemicals in your kitchen cleanser do they’re giving you a healthier alternative that’s priced similarly and easy to use.

I absolutely love the concept behind Ftoxins and in this episode we talk a lot about cosmetics, moisturisers, what you should and can use on your skin safely and why it’s so important not to rub petroleum all over your body!! Yes, most moisturisers are made from petroleum which comes form petrol.

As ever if you enjoy this episode then you can support me and my little podcast by sharing it to your instagram stories and also by leaving a rave review on the apple podcasts app! Thank you in advance...

In today’s episode I’m talking to Ben Bidwell. You may know Ben as @thenakedprofessor, and you may not know his face at, just his naked bum! The clue is in the name, Ben really does pose naked in his Instagram photos and as you’ll find out in this episode there is sound reasoning as to why he does this.

I heard Ben on another podcast and something he said really stuck out for me and I contacted him right away to ask if he’d like to discuss it further on STATE OF MIND. He said that the last piece in his healing journey was resolving the issue he has around sex.

This really resonated with me and in our discussion on this episode I found that my eyes were being opened to the fact that sex isn’t always easy for men. For so long I’ve just thought that it’s us women that have the hang ups, the reservations, the lack of self-confidence but my eyes were truly opened talking to Ben and I’m very grateful to him for that.

For more details on Ben and to learn about his life coaching practice go find him on instagram @thenakedprofessor 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 subscribing to the podcast via the Apple Podcasts App.
