My dad died when I was 22 and depression followed for over a decade. How I came off medication for good by focusing on just three things: attitude, intake and movement.

Life
Gratitude is a practice
Having an attitude of gratitude isn’t enough, so here’s the simple nightly practice I use, plus how to write your own easy rules for happiness.
Accept everything, thank everything
My school report said I was more likely to go to prison than university, and why I ended up thanking the teacher who wrote it.
Have You Started Juicing Garlic Yet?
After years avoiding garlic in my juicer, I finally tried it, from a Kung Flu Fighter juice in Orlando to the liver flush recipe I now serve at my retreat in Turkey.
Failure is just research
What if every failure you’ve had was really research, and the thing that stops most people is a fear of something that hasn’t happened yet?
Obliterate “I can’t”
While you tell yourself you can’t do something, you’re right, so here’s how to tear up your can’t list and write a must list instead.
The road to peace begins within
The news says RAF jets have started bombing Syria, and I’m thinking about the war a lot of us fight with ourselves. On anger, blame and making peace at home.
Stop waiting, start doing
Why the weather will never be perfect, and how to take the first step on the thing you keep putting off.
Rise of the Pseudo Juice (Supermarkets Do NOT Want You to Read This)
I look at how supermarket ‘cold pressed’ juices get a 45 day shelf life through high pressure processing, and compare the fruit content in five big brand bottles.
Parsnip and Ginger Soup
A warm soup made with parsnips, ginger, garlic and cumin, finished with pumpkin seeds, a simple winter recipe that makes the most of ginger’s natural benefits.
Red Cabbage and Apple Soup
A warm soup made with red cabbage, apple, onion and walnuts, created for my Winter Cleanse to make cabbage’s benefits easier to enjoy than juice.
Smooth Operator Smoothie
Smooth Operator is a creamy take on a classic juice, carrot, apple, lemon and ginger juiced then blended with avocado for a smoother finish.
