The cool thing about functional health solutions is that sometimes they can provide you some answers when a visit to a conventional doctor leaves you scratching your head. I found that out a few years ago when I got sick, and so did my friend Celest who I've interviewed this week. This week's podcast 🍊- with Celest Pereira Celest Pereira is a friend of the podcast - this is her fourth time as a guest - and an internationally-renowned yoga teacher.

I've been interested for a while in getting on a physical pain specialist on my podcast. When I spoke to back-pain expert Esther Gokhale a while back, it had a huge response and lots of people listened. So - we've brought in body expert Aaron Alexander for more. You'll love this, and you may well sort your back out while you listen. Yep, I've had problems with a dodgy back in the past too. Ever heard of Align Therapy? Aaron Alexander is awesome, and occasionally just slightly inappropriate. (You...

Are you consuming stimulants multiple times per day to hide your exhaustion? Charlie Hoehn had some big problems with stress. Shallow breathing, tension in the gut, chest ...

Camilla Dallerup waltzed away from Strictly Come Dancing after six series and even won the competition with Tom Chambers in 2008.

First up, I've been spending plenty of time out in nature this summer - trying to get a bit more primal. I walked up Snowdon (the highest mountain in England and Wales) a couple of weeks ago. So many of my Zestology podcast guests talk about the importance of getting back to nature, and being a bit more primal. Having climbed Snowdon I felt the same thing. Especially with emojis to help me on my way. This week's Zestology was also recorded outside, with Ayurveda expert Natalie Roper. Thousands o...

Over the last couple of weeks I've been to a couple of festivals in the West Country. The Tolpuddle Festival in Dorset, (shaking Jeremy Corbyn's hand possibly the highlight of that one.) And Yoga Connects festival in Glastonbury, where I was also speaking. It was my third time there, and it lived up to the other two - what an awesome weekend of fun, exercise and a few drinks too. I bumped into this fella, someone I've been meaning to interview for a long time, if only I could get hold of him for...

Are you ready for a Brain Boost? That's the name of my friend Karl's new podcast. When I spoke to my friend Karl Morris on Zestology a while back, it got a big response. He's a leading performance coach in the world of sport and kind of a big deal (though he'd be far too modest to admit that himself). This time, he's now started a podcast himself and it's been fun chatting to him about his ideas for it. I know he'll be a huge success in the podcast world because he's so damn good at what he does...

I'm not going to lie, sometimes I worry about getting older. Do you? Laura Coe is an entrepreneur, podcast host, philosophy lover and certified life coach. She's a brilliant podcast guest, because she tells us in simple terms how age is just a number, and there's no need to worry about it. Hmm, sounds good. The podcast is all about energy, and feeling good as you get older is all part of that, I reckon. As you'll hear I'm sceptical... but I'm happy to admit Laura is good So who is this Laura Coe...

It's fascinating to study daily rituals of successful people. And that's one of the main themes in this podcast. Jaret Grossman is one of those sickening individuals who seems to be good at everything! And one of the reasons I loved this podcast is we violently disagreed on the subject of daily rituals. He's the co-founder of Muscle Prodigy - a company that has built a huuge following online. And he's a 3x All American Wrestler. Here's the kind of stuff he talks about. - Discover Your Life Purpo...

Energy, creativity, music and motivation, and how these themes all tie together. Jono Grant is one of the world's top DJs.

He's also responsible for the music that you hear at the start of the podcast. We recorded this as part of a special Spoti...

Sometimes we get so mired in stress, anxiety or wrapped up in our problems, it's hard to remember how to relax. So today I speak to one of the UK's top psychologists all about stress and balance. Anna Williamson used to be a pop band, then was one of the UK's most popular children's TV presenters. It's quite a journey from that to respected psychologist (yes, I just used the J word). She's now the resident psychologist for Big Brother and ITV's This Morning, two of the biggest shows on UK televi...

The author of the brilliant best-selling book - The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F**k. I keep seeing people reading this book all over London. It's been a huge hit for Sarah.

Then she wrote the book - Get Your Sh*t Together: How to stop worrying about what you should do so you can finish what you need to do and start doing what you want to do. Now she's moved to the Dominican Republic, recorded a v...

I've often heard about taking a boat load of vitamin C when you get a cold to get rid of it quickly. But I've never quite known if it was actually true or not. That's why I wanted to interview Dr. Andrew Saul, AKA MegaVitamin Man. He says yes - huge amounts of Vitamin C are a natural anti-viral and can banish all kinds of ailments. So, high dose vitamins, could they be the answer to many of our health problems? Dr. Andrew Saul, “The MegaVitamin Man”, has 40 years of experience in natural health....

It's all about The Journey. TIME Magazine called him one of the “Top 100 Most Influential People in the World” and he's on today's podcast, reminding us to enjoy the journey.

What about the body language differences between him and Vladimir Putin? And how on earth can you communicate non-verbally to get what you want? Elizabeth wrote the huge global best-seller Body Language for Dummies , so she knows a thing or two about this topic. If you enjoy the podcast, I'd be grateful if you might consider forwarding it to a friend who'd get...
