What is Wellness? Wellness is not merely the absence of illness; it is a state of complete physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. It is Wholeness. After being diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis aged 2, I was wheelchair-bound and head-to-toe disabled by 18. After more than a decade of intensive self-study, learning everything I could about what makes the human body & mind work and not work, I reconditioned myself back to wellness, but only after learning that I couldn’t just heal my body, I had to also heal the emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of self too. If you want to heal one part of you, you have to heal the whole self. Based on this long and expansive journey, I created Reconditioned as a hub to integrate all modalities and learnings within the world of well-being in one place, and as a result, here is where you will find information on everything from nutrition and epigenetics, to conscious parenting, trauma, neuroplasticity, inner child healing, conscious relationships, intentional entrepreneurship, meditation, manifestation, spirituality and more. Whether you are suffering from chronic illness, raising children in a world of conflicting information, you‘re an entrepreneur wanting to step into your purpose or you simply want to feel empowered and motivated to become the best version of yourself, tune in as I work to uncover the most actionable ways to recondition ourselves back to wellness.

If you're anywhere around my age, you probably remember former Hollyoaks actress Davinia Taylor's name from the gossip columns in the '90s and '00s.
She was known throughout that time as the Primrose Hill party girl who experienced all London's nightlife had to offer and more, alongside the likes of Kate Moss and Sadie Frost.
What she didn’t know back then was why she was so susceptible to alcoholism and why she needed it so much, and, interestingly, why her body was able to process it so efficiently at the time.
A series of traumatic events led Davinia to seek answers, eventually leading her to the world of biohacking and health optimisation, and in this week's episode of Reconditioned, we had such fun talking about:
-The mechanisms of addiction and depression
-How knowing about your genetics and hormones will help you beat addiction
-How to optimise your health
-How to understand your body’s physiology
-What biohacking is
-Davinia’s favourite hacks, health tips, supplements and other products
-Post-natal depression
-Biological dentistry
-Cancer
-And my personal favourite, how to biohack a take-away!
There was so much more in there too.
Davinia really has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to health optimisation and if you’ve ever suffered with depression, anxiety, addiction, ill-health or you’re a parent, you’ll particularly benefit from listening to this episode.
You can find Davinia on Instagram @daviniataylor
