Saturday 20th March was a day of great blessings here at Naturally by Trisha. We celebrated the official opening of our Whare Rongoa, the factory/workshop where our tinctures, balms and creams are made. It was a day like no other. The whare has been a work in progress for many months as we transformed an existing workshop into a place where real magic happens.
Here is a soup that tastes as if it's been slow cooking for hours yet takes only about 45 minutes from start to finish to make. I find it quite challenging to make a really good soup. This soup is very tasty, hearty and filling, and economical. It's my kind of soup.
Talking About my aches and Pains Balm. This humble little balm is probably the most underestimated in the range. And yet when I do get feed-back it is always one of gratitude to the effectiveness of this product.
CHILBLAINS (Pernio) Yes it’s the season for chilblains. I have never suffered from them myself but my youngest daughter suffered from them between the age of about 12 and 18. Strangely enough it took us quite a while to realise what they were. No-one in our family had ever had them before. Most of the time there was hardly anything to see just a puffiness - a slight discoloration of purpley-red, and a shiny look to the affected toes and of course she complained of itchiness, burning pain and sensitivity.
ROYAL OAK MARKET on 21st Feb 2010 from 10am to 2pm Yes, again Naturally by Trisha are excited to be attending the Market at Royal Oak.

This is the breakfast that will supply heaps of nutrients and keep your sugar levels balanced for most of the day. I have given it to so many of my patients who just don't know what to have for breakfast, and so many of them now swear by it. It stops you craving junk food during the day. You simply don't think about eating rubbish because your body has got what it needs, in the form of slow release energy. It is best to try to use organic ingredients. If it is the only organic food you eat, it is worth the little bit extra to get the maximum benefit.
CLEARING UP CONFUSION Last night I had a phone call from one of my homeopathic clients who has been purchasing my balms for over 5 years. She told me that she had been into a local chemist and had seen what looked like my products but on closer inspection weren’t my products.
Varicose Veins - Reducing the discomfort -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Written by Jill Dunn - MHSc Complementary Medicine, Registered Naturopath, Registered Medical Herbalist, Registered Nurse (Non-practising) What are varicose veins and what causes them? Varicose veins are dilated, tortuous veins that may have their origin in the deep saphenous veins that run up the back and front of the legs.
Kia Ora everyone.Wow hasn’t Spring arrived with a bang! Here at our Naturally by Trisha gardens we have plums, pears, peaches, apples, nashi’s, macadamias all in varying stages of blossom, with Egyptian musk rose weaving through some of the fruit trees. The scent in the air is so heady, it never fails to fill me with hope and joy. Another cycle beginning in the garden.
