    Breaking the Myths of Both Health: Strength through Science with Annette Cashell

    In this episode of the Health Waves Podcast, nutritional therapist Eilis sits down with Holistic Movement Coach, Annette Cashell to talk all things bone health — and why it’s never “too late” to strengthen your skeleton. Bones aren’t static. They’re living tissue, constantly rebuilding. Even post-menopause, they can respond to the right stimulus. Annette explains the difference between osteoporosis and osteopenia, and why fracture risk isn’t defined by your DEXA score alone. Bone quality, balance, muscle strength, stress, smoking, alcohol, steroid use, dieting history, and certain medications all play a role. It’s more nuanced than a single number. Annette shares her own journey — from a career in marketing to Pilates and bone-health coaching — and how she reversed her osteopenia through progressive strength training, targeted nutrition, and managing stress and cortisol. They explore why walking, while beneficial, may not be enough to stimulate bone growth. Think progressive load. Heavier weights. Fewer reps. The conversation also covers age-related bone changes, the FRAX fracture-risk tool, different medication approaches, and how to modify activities (yes, even golf) without avoiding movement altogether. Annette also outlines her online Strong Bones and More programme and the everyday “non-negotiables” that quietly protect your bones — reducing time in heels, sitting less, building balance, and taking proper stress breaks. If you care about staying strong, steady, and independent as you age, this one’s worth a listen.

  2. Mind–Body Connection: A Journey to Holistic Wellness with Richard Brook

    Mind–Body Connection: A Journey to Holistic Wellness with Richard Brook

    In this episode of HealthWaves, Eilis Ó Broin, nutritional therapist, sits down with Richard Brook — acupuncturist, yoga teacher, author, and founder of Creative Wellness in the Algarve. Richard qualified in acupuncture in 2007 and has spent over 15 years teaching yoga. Before relocating to Portugal in 2016, he ran Creative Yoga London, blending traditional classes with social and even yoga-based dating events. After first visiting the retreat centre Moinhos Velhos in 2014, he felt a strong pull to return. Eleven years later, he’s helping run the centre and is now in the process of purchasing it. The conversation explores his book, Understanding Human Nature: A User’s Guide to Life, and his approach to Five Element acupuncture. Unlike conventional Traditional Chinese Medicine, Five Element acupuncture takes a broader Daoist view — examining life choices, seasonal rhythms, and diagnosing through colour, sound, odour and emotion. The five elements — wood, fire, earth, metal and water — are linked not only to organs, but also to behaviours and recurring thought patterns. Richard also introduces Drew Yoga, a gentle and heartfelt practice, and explains how the retreat programmes integrate body, mind and spirit. Juice fasting, he says, can help clear both mental and physical clutter, support autophagy, and create space for deeper life resets. Many guests, he notes, leave with more than just improved digestion — they leave with perspective. The retreat site itself is said to sit on a quartz seam and what’s described as a “synchronic line,” adding to its reputation as an energetically potent space. When asked for practical starting points, Richard keeps it simple: move your body (especially through dance), attend regular yoga classes, and commit to consistent one-to-one therapy. Three anchor practices. Accessible. Grounded. To learn more, visit creativewellness.co.uk and Moinhos Velhos in the Algarve. This podcast is produced by WildAtlanticHealth.com
