Sardines and Watercress on Toast Recipe

 A simple meal that you can throw together but has essential fatty omega's from the sardines. Sprinkle some nutty seeds on top for added brain-protecting powers. Studies using next-generation imaging and genomic sequencing have shown that some foods, such as vegetables, fruit, fish, wholegrains, nuts, and seeds, are neuroprotective. They not only shield the brain from harm but also support cognitive fitness over a lifetime.

Products We're Loving

• Baoding balls: Dilly absolutely loves his baoding balls! Many scientists use them to focus and give their minds a break from work. If your nervous system is feeling a little on edge this winter or festive season, baoding balls can help calm your mind, similar to worry beads, offering a simple, satisfying way to ease stress. - Link
• Be Grounded EarthBand
  With all the juggling of work, family, and parenting, getting outside and putting your feet on the ground can feel like the last thing on your to-do list. Be Grounded’s EarthBand makes it easier! Designed to provide wearable PEMF therapy, it can help reduce stress, ease anxiety, and even support better sleep, all drug-free, non-invasive, and powered by your own movement. Link
• Lumie Sunrise Clock
  With the darker mornings and shorter days, our circadian rhythms can easily get out of sync. Lumie offers a range of sunrise/sunset alarm clocks, so it’s worth checking which one fits your routine best. We love that it keeps smartphones out of the bedroom and lets you adjust the dimmable light to your needs. Start your day with a gentle sunrise that begins 30 minutes before your alarm, gradually brightening to wake you naturally, and end your day with a 30-minute sunset to help you unwind and relax at bedtime. Link
• Long Barn Lavender Pillow Spray
  After long days waking in the dark, and often commuting in the dark, we can feel a little wired and out of sync.  This lavender pillow spray from Long Barn is a firm favourite of our marketing executive, Lauren:

  "After a long day at work and with the kids, this pillow spray is the ultimate way for me to relax when my head hits the pillow, especially when I can't switch off my brain. I've tried so many sprays, but this is hands-down the best. It's water-based, so no staining, and made with essential oils harvested straight from the lavender farm in Hampshire." Link

Products to Support Menopause

• Menopause Friendly Bras: "It's shockingly difficult to get bras without synthetics in them these days. We're really enjoying Julie May's bralettes - they're so soft and wash beautifully." Link
• Lubricant: "Using non-toxic lubricants and wearing natural fibre bras and underwear is crucial for women because conventional products often contain endocrine-disrupting chemicals like parabens, phthalates, and synthetic dyes that can be absorbed through the skin and mucous membranes, disrupting hormone balance. Natural, breathable materials and clean formulas support vaginal health, reduce inflammation, and help protect the delicate hormonal ecosystem." Link
• Menopause Friendly Pyjamas: "Wearing natural fabrics while you sleep is important because your skin becomes more permeable at night, making it more vulnerable to absorbing harmful chemicals found in synthetic materials. Natural fibres like organic cotton or linen are breathable, non-toxic, and support detoxification, hormone balance, and skin health while you rest." Link
• Menopause Friendly Bedding: "It might sound crazy, but switching to wool-based bedding is a game-changer for temperature regulation and breathability! Add to that a natural cotton or linen duvet set and you'll be shocked at how you ever slept through in sweaty, synthetic bedding before." Link
• Reading: Invisible Women by Caroline Criado Perez. The Sunday Times #1 bestseller exposes the everyday gender bias women face.
  From ill-fitting phones to unsafe cars and incorrect medical treatments,  Caroline Criado Perez reveals how invisible bias affects women’s health, safety, and well-being across all areas of life. Link

Non Toxic Cleaning Products

• Attitude Dishwasher Tablets: "Finding a non-toxic dishwasher tab that actually works has been a challenge - not going to lie, but considering how detrimental conventional tabs can be to our gut health, the motivation was there and we finally found what we were looking for with Attitude. They function just like regular tabs and so far all of our dishes are coming out sparkling!" Link
• Miniml Coconut Laundry Detergent
  "This has been working really well for our family for over two years now. We just add a capful of this along with a capful of vinegar and it literally cleans everything. While it does still contain some natural fragrance, it hasn't been an issue for my families sensitive skin and any of the alternatives we tried just didn't cut it so I'm okay with this for now" Link
• Made Kind Natural All-Purpose Cleaner
  "I can't lie, I just love a good scent for my cleaning products so I was so happy when I discovered Made Kind - non-toxic household cleaners that use essential oils. This all purpose spray cleans so well and I love that it leaves a delicate scent in the house without causing a headache." Link
