This month, Victoria welcomes David Johnston to The Health Chat.  David has been the Managing Director of Weleda Australia for 14 years and has guided the business through significant growth. 

You'll hear David talk about the amazing 100 year history of Weleda, founded in 1921 by the Austrian philosopher and natural scientist, Rudolf Steiner, Dutch doctor Ita Wegman and Oskar Schmiedel, a chemist and pharmacist from Munich in Germany.  Though scientists, they believed in the human connection with nature, the responsibility we have to each other and to nature.  Anthroposophy explores these connections.  Weleda embraces the harmonious connection between people and plants which enables them to develop better natural products. David discusses how the anthroposophy of this brand has remained authentic in every product Weleda produces which links in wonderfully with Weleda's Save Earth's Skin campaign, focusing on soil, which, just like our skin, is a living, breathing eco-system. It is the living skin of our Earth. You'll hear some great insights into what we can do right now to help Save Earth's Skin - something we can all do to ensure a thriving ecosystem worldwide.  


Prior to Weleda David was the General Manager at Go Vita, where he expanded the group from 68 to over 127 health food stores. David started working in a Health Food shop back in the early 70’s and has managed many companies throughout the industry.  A typical day in David’s schedule starts with meditation, tai chi and a swim in the ocean. David believes “each day offers opportunities for us to enjoy and appreciate life to the full'.

Mark discusses his book that is designed for highly sensitive persons (HSPs) and for those who wish to know more about this human trait.   Vicky asks Mark questions pertinent to non-HSP's, things like, how to identify an HSP, how to parent a highly sensitive child, warning signs to look for in a child and how different cultures around the world embrace HSPs.   HSP's compromise about a fifth of the human population, with equal gender representation, and many of them seek Traditional Medicine to help with their health.  This podcast and video is a must for practitioners and non-practitioners as it explores the great wonders of the HSPs and how to treat them effectively.  

Mark believes in assisting HSPs (adults and children) to live healthy and productive lives, while respecting and embracing their feelings and perceptions in everyday life.

Join Andrew Whitfield-Cook as he discusses Lymphatic Herbal Medicines with Kristin Gilmour.  As a well-respected Naturopath and Technical Writer for OptimalRx, Kristin has many years of experience in herbal medicine and in this podcast she takes listeners on a journey to understand how to optimise lymphatic health and effectively treat patients with lymphatic concerns.  

You'll hear Kristin talk about which types of patient groups suit lymphatic support, her favourite herbs used to treat lymphatic conditions, the types of exercises she recommends to help promote lymphatic health, as well as the importance of gentle massage to encourage lymphatic flow.  Listen to Kristin discuss how the lymphatic system is connected to other body systems, such as our nervous system, and how certain conditions, such as skin conditions like acne and dermatitis, can be directly related to a dysfunctional lymphatic system.

Kristin is an experienced Melbourne-based Naturopathic practitioner with a special interest in the management of immune health, chronic inflammatory disorders, and skin conditions.  Alongside her longstanding Naturopathic practice, Kristin is also a respected researcher, technical writer, and educator.  Kristin has a great love of herbal medicine, which is the focus of much of her research, writing, and lecturing.  Kristin is passionate about health education, whether that's with patients  in private consultation or group workshops, via providing educational online resources, or through further support and training for Naturopathic practitioners, Integrative Doctors, and Allied Health professionals.  With a continued drive to further the reach of our profession and improve the health of as many people as possible, Kristin provides health practitioners with practical and innovative natural medicine strategies based on traditional wisdom, current research, and clinical results.
