The Balance Between

Nutrition and Delicious  Eating

Born and brought up in New Delhi, India, Alisha moved to London at 16 years old and has been passionate about creating recipes and cooking since she was a little girl. At 22 years old she is now a psychology masters graduate and is passionate about wellbeing both mentally and physically, and is therefore using her vegan social media page to promote healthy living, mostly through her recipes! 
Alisha has been vegan for just over a year and has dived into her Indian roots and started learning the health benefits of using nature and plants as her source of medicine, using naturopathic and Ayurvedic teachings. She also started learning about Dr. Sebi’s nutritional guide to alkaline eating and how a lot of his teachings correlate with ancient Ayurvedic teachings. 
Alisha’s topic for the day will be: balancing everyday eating habits whilst being able to eat our favourite dishes.
She will talk about how it is not necessary to give up our favourite dishes in order to live a more holistic life, it just takes replacing toxic and damaging everyday ingredients and replacing them with natural, alkaline and nourishing ones.

Carla Halford
Healthy for Life

Carla has been in practice for over 30 years. She worked in the technical team of a leading supplement manufacturer for 10 years. She also went to Indonesia to work in a high end spa in Bali for two years working internationally with individuals to help them improve their health. Now Carla continues one to one consultations to help people regain their health and balance. She holds a qualification from The Institute for Optimum Nutrition and a post-graduate degree from The London College of Naturopathic Medicine. It never ceases to amaze her what big changes can happen through dietary improvements streamlined for a specific individual. The natural state of the human body is wellness. Our bodies are built from, fuelled by and repaired by food. What we eat affects every cell and system in our body, such as ageing, hormonal problems, diabetes, heart disease and many other health problems. Good nutrition regulates the body. In fact it is really quite simple. People only need direction ( from a qualified nutritionist/naturopath ) and the will to help themselves.
