THE AYUVERDIC WELLNESS CENTRE | A TOUCH OF ANCEINT HEALING WISDOM



Last Tuesday, I went to the opening of Australia's first ever, truly authentic Ayurvedic Treatment Centre at Bondi & I invited Natasa to come with me.

The centre is opened by Rita Sagrani, who sold her fashion business to launch a much needed traditional treatment centre after having to travel every year to India to overcome her personal health challenges. Ayurveda is India's ancient science of life and longevity and is the healing or therapeutic sister science to Yoga. Each treatment is catered to the individual according to their own unique body type and personal structure, where traditional therapies detoxify the body and balance the mind, body and spirit. Herbal oils and natural ingredients are processed and used for each treatment and the massage therapists are trained from India, which means the experience will be entirely authentic.

One treatment in particular I was remember that was mentioned was the 2 letres of oil used to massage all over your body. Plus also another treatment where 2 letres of oil is slowly poured through over your forehead. It will apparently make you feel relaxed and out of this world. ( I can imagine!) I have yet to try, but will be very shortly! Will be a very very interesting experience.

The food on the night was all organic and vegetarian too! A very healthy change for me. The drinks were of course non alcoholic including mint and punch, and also another fruit punch with beetroot juice.

I do encourage you to take a look on their site to browse at some of their different treatments and history- here

SPEEDO | BACKSTAGE | SUMMER 2011 SWIMWEAR COLLECTION | MERCEDES-BENZ FF





On Wednesday, I attended the runway launch of the SPEEDO Summer ’11 swimwear collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Sydney, Town Hall. Before the show started, I went into their hair and make up. The kids are also the most adorable things!



I also had a quick chat backstage with Eamon Sullivan, Olympic swimmer who has received a lot of press this year with gaining the title of CLEO BACHELOR 2011, a guest as Celebrity MasterChef, opening his co-owned cafe Louis Baxter in Perth and just launching a cookbook Eamon's Kitchen.



Watch the video below, talking about what was going through his nerves before walking down the runway, what's next installed for him and a message for young aspiring swimmers.

JULIA GILLARD LIKES GIDEON SHOES | OTHER RANDOM PICS FROM GIDEON BONDI



The other day, I caught up with one of my best friends Bec, who I now only see at uni and hardly really hang out. We spent to the Westfield Giveability Store Launch together at Bondi Junction Westfield and then headed down to Bondi Beach to shop. I hadnt't been to down there to actually shop for probably quite a while. Of course we visited stores like Tuchuzy and Ksubi, but also my beloved friends at Gideon Shoes! It was quite quiet, so we kinda played around, had some fun, lots of laughs, being silly and helping change the store window display with Matt and even Ring Around the Rosie rhymed goodbye.We're totally crazy.

Julia Gillard is Australia's current Prime Minister and Matt was using it as the window display, so, Bec and I had some fun with it and made the above video. Hope you guys like it.
