I consider the training I undertook with Alison to be the key to one of the most powerful tools yet discovered. It is a tool I use everyday and can be used for ANYTHING. I was absolutely amazed at her superb skills as a trainer and it is now a great resource for me to use as a tool within my own practice.  This is a fantastic opportunity not only for your own personal development but for therapists to be even more effective within their practice.

Herbal medicine can help to support your body and mind through exam periods. Napiers Study Blend can be used in an oil burner, or simply sniffed from the bottle to aid you. This stimulating blend contains the essential oils of Mint, Basil and Rosemary – these herbs help the mind to focus, whilst also exerting a gentle calming effect on the nervous system.

Ginkgo Biloba, whose common name is ‘The Memory Tree’, is a key herb for exams. Ginkgo is traditionally used for its supporting effect on the adrenal glands, (which are involved in the stress response), whilst also stimulating blood flow to the brain, optimising cognitive function and thereby aiding concentration and memory – perfect.

Another key exam herb is Ashwaganda (Withania), another adrenal tonic, providing energy and support to the nervous system, whilst also having a stimulating effect on the brain. Ashwaganda and Ginkgo make a very good partnership, the overall effect being increased concentration and memory, coupled with a gentle calming effect on the mind and body.

Duncan Napier himself in 1860 originally formulated one of the most popular stress remedies recommended today in our Napiers Clinics. Scullcap, Oat and Passionflower Compound contains over 20 different herbs, including Scullcap, Oats, Passionflower, Jamaican dogwood, Limeflowers and Valerian.

Try to get good nights sleep. Don’t OD on coffee or caffeine based drinks during the day. Leave at least a half hour gap between putting your revision down and going to bed to let your mind calm. Sleep is important for concentration, memory formation and helps the repair of damage to your body’s cells during the day. Napiers Sweet Dreams is a traditional herbal remedy to help you sleep.

Don’t get run down, boost your immune system
Many students fall prey to coughs and colds and it can be really helpful to boost your immune system over this period. Napiers Elixir of Echinacea is a licensed herbal remedy, formulated to help the body fight back against infection.

Take regular exercise
Whilst studying for exams it is very important to take regular breaks and to take regular exercise.  A brisk half hour walk will really help restore your energy levels and help de-stress and freshen your mind. Take time out to let your body and mind relax!

At Napiers we really do have something to celebrate this year! It is now 150 years since Duncan Napier opened our first shop and clinic, in Bristo Place Edinburgh on 25th May 1860.

One of the digestive problems we now regularly encounter is Irritable Bowl Syndrome (IBS). IBS is a blanket term for a wide range of symptoms including abdominal cramping, alternating diarrhoea and constipation, wind and bloating. The most common triggers can be stress, anxiety and food intolerance and sensitivity. It is important to identify which are the triggers for your symptoms and then to avoid these where possible.

One of the major factors in many digestive orders is often stress. The release of adrenaline as part of the body’s response to stress causes a reduction in blood flow to the digestive organs, which can lead to digestive problems. If you think this may be an issue for you, I have put together a FREE information sheet on dealing with stress.

However there are a number of herbs which are traditionally used to relieve digestive problems and these include:

Peppermint – this is my herb of choice where there is spasm, wind or bloating. Traditionally used as an after dinner drink, Peppermint Tea is refreshing and also helps aids digestion.
Fennel also helps relieve colicky pain whilst supporting the digestive processes and combines well with the peppermint.
If there is discomfort or mild constipation try taking licorice. This helps to regulate bowel movements, and is also very soothing

Bloating and wind can be very uncomfortable and embarrassing side effects of digestive problems and Gentian Bitters can be taken to increase appetite, reduce flatulence, gurgling and bloating and promote good digestion.

Slippery Elm is used traditionally to treat any inflammation or irritation of the lining of the digestive tract.  It is a soothing nutritious powdered bark and is particularly useful for IBS and heartburn and can be taken as powder made into a warm drink.

Constipation is also a common problem. The bowel is one of the major routes for ridding the body of waste products and if blocked can contribute to major health problems and general lack of vitality.
Pysillium husks can be used as a bulking agent to help promote regular bowel movement.  Slippery Elm also combines well with Psyllium in Psyllium and Slippery Elm Powder which is used to tone the bowel and gently ease constipation and is often also used by herbalists for help with diverticular disease and mild constipation as well as IBS.

Causes of chronic constipation include a low fibre diet, lack of exercise, dehydration, stress and poor muscle tone.  It is very important to address these lifestyle issues as well.  Take regular exercise, drink plenty of water and take time out to let your body and mind relax!

Every year I see more and more people, who have never had any allergy problem, suddenly develop symptoms. The usual symptoms are itchy eyes, runny nose, sneezing, even sore throats and headaches. More recently I have been seeing a big increase in skin related allergies developing in the spring. I have a lot of theories on why this is happening; on why our immune systems are being more challenged. Everything from our diet to the chemicals in our home, all challenge our immune system. When an already challenged immune system is faced by further hurdles, such as a high pollen count, there can be a breakdown and allergy symptoms develop, even to people who have never suffered from any allergy symptoms in the past.

The best way to get on top of the problem is to start treatment before the problem actually develops
Once an allergy situation has developed it can be difficult to treat and you are often left trying to manage the situation, rather than cure it. Allergy has a domino affect on the body. You often find that you start off sensitive to one thing and, before you know, it you are sensitive to a whole range of things. Over the last few years I have developed a three part allergy/hay fever battle plan that can reduce, if not stop your symptoms.

Stage1: Start a few weeks before your symptoms would usually develop
Plan to cut dairy products out of you diet. Dairy can make any allergy you suffer worse and will cause mucus production, making runny noses and blocked sinuses worse. Try and be very strict, cutting out all cows milk products and using goats and sheep’s cheese, soya milk and dairy free spreads instead. Remember that milk chocolate is a dairy product, and dark chocolate is dairy free!

Stage 2: Start taking a teaspoon of local honey each day
Honey, which is made from pollen, almost acts homoeopathically by helping your body to build up a resistance to pollens and grasses. Local honey will be specific to the pollens and grasses in your area.

Stage 3: Simple herbal remedies can be used to ease allergy symptom.
Nettle has anti-histamine like action and will cut down the body’s response to allergy, Chamomile will soothe mucus membranes and Sinus Rub can ease sinus pain and congestion. These herbs are available pre-blended as Napiers Nettle Blend or you can also buy the dried herbs and make up your own herbal tea.  Napiers Summertime Blend Herbal Tea is rich in the herbs traditionally used for their soothing and anti-allergy properties and contains eyebright, chamomile, liquorice, elderflowers and nettle. Drunk regularly these teas will help to control symptoms. For those sufferers who don’t like liquids, I use Napiers Nettle and Chamomile Capsules.  Napiers Sage and Garlic Catarrh Remedy can help relieve the symptoms of nasal and bronchial catarrh and any infections associated with allergies.  Red sage is an antiseptic and astringent and the Liquorice encourages expulsion of mucous. Echinacea and Elderflower can also help relieve symptoms. This traditional mixture containing anti-catarrhal and expectorant herbs has a stimulant effect on the immune system. If you are suffering hot, itchy eyes, you can also try using a cold chamomile tea bag as an eye compress.

Relief for summer skin allergies
If you suffer from skin allergies or heat rashes (also a form of allergy) try cutting dairy products out of your diet for a few months to see if it helps. A tea made out of dandelion leaf will ease heat rash and swollen ankles and reduce skin allergies. Make sure you only use unperfumed products on your skin and try moisturising with soothing Starflower Cream and our acclaimed Infant Starflower Cream for facial use.
