Flaxseed has amazing health benefits. It's full of fibre, protein, omega-3 fatty acids and lignans, a type of phytoestrogen, which is linked to a lower risk of developing conditions like osteoporosis, heart disease and breast cancer. Flaxseed is also an effective source of potassium and vitamin B1, which helps your body turn food into energy.

In order for it to be digested properly, it should be ground up (then kept in the fridge), and can be stirred into porridge, sprinkled on salad or added to bread or stews, for example. It's important to check with your healthcare provider that flaxseed is right for you – if so, get adding!

There's a reason why your body automatically wants to stretch first thing in the morning – stretching increases blood flow to your muscles while relieving tension, as well as aiding flexibility for smoother, more connected movement. Start your day well – get that blood flowing, and then move as much as you can, in whatever way you can, throughout the day.

The University of Arizona published a study last month looking at twenty-one different disciplines and their links to a longer life. Of the twenty-one, the two most effective regarding longevity were Pilates and yoga. Pilates was top dog overall, with a 36% lower risk of 'all-cause mortality' versus yoga's 27%. While the study was purely observational, and there are obvious contextual markers that aid this finding (for example, people who do yoga and Pilates could already be of a certain standard of heath, or generally be more inclined towards leading a healthier lifestyle), there's no getting away from the fact that movement, core strength, stress management and connection with others are all hugely beneficial factors for overall good health.

The light at this time of year is extraordinary – I'm not one for the early mornings in the dark, but when the sun gets through and hits the leaves as they're changing, it feels like perhaps more is possible than I thought. When did you last take a long walk in a forest?

It's October! Well and truly autumn, with all that autumn brings – fresh skies, rich colours, the return of hot chocolate in the beach bag... pay attention to the changes, try to embrace them, and get outside when you can!

If you're feeling stuck, or ill-prepared for the season ahead, look for a view. It can be anything, as long as it's at a distance. There's something about adjusting our eyeline to somewhere a little further away that is good for the soul. Stop and look for as long as you can spare. Take a few deep breaths. Then take a few more. That's it.

If I had a greenhouse...
In the meantime, we are in the process of closing down our little garden for the colder weather – pruning, clearing out seasonal veg, picking the last of the tomatoes, storing the furniture etc. We're really trying not to leave everything out to turn to mush or go rusty this year – it remains to be seen if the trip to the tip with all the detritus from this burst of activity will actually happen. Either way, nothing will prepare us for the amount of mud that will inevitably appear on the inside of the house once it starts to rain.
