@lisarobarts_ot, a Ballito-based occupational therapist, specialises in the rehabilitation of hand injuries, as well as neurological rehabilitation. We asked her how to avoid overuse injuries to our hands.

At some point in our lives, we are all likely to experience achy thumbs or shooting pains up our forearms, or funny sensations in our fingers. These are sometime due to a once-off injury like trying to catch a cricket ball one-handed at the T20, or from falling over a loose brick on a promenade run.

Sometimes, however, these little injuries are caused by small, repetitive movements that are perfectly harmless on their own, but when done over and over again they can cause damage to our hands.

Common symptoms of over-use injuries may include:
• Pain, usually in the joints of our hands, often where our thumb joins the wrist
• Sensations such a shooting pains, numbness or pins and needles
• Weakness when trying to grip or pinch items
• Swelling in the hand or fingers
• Unusual clicking or locking of fingers. or thumbs when bending

It’s no secret that nutrition has a direct impact on our overall health, but did you know that eating the right foods can help maintain your vision? Dr Yavische Reddy, an ophthalmologist based in Ballito, explains the connection.

Eating a balanced diet rich in nutrients has plenty of health benefits, but when it comes to eye health specifically, research suggests that foods rich in vitamins C and E, zinc, lutein, zeaxanthin, and omega-3 fatty acids are the ones to look out for. These nutrients have been linked to lower risk of cataracts and age-related macular degeneration, as well as dry eyes in old age.

To make sure that you get plenty of vitamin C, choose fruits and veggies like oranges, grapefruit, kiwifruit, strawberries, tomatoes, red and green peppers and broccoli. Good sources of vitamin E include almonds, sunflower seeds, olive oil, and avocadoes, while zinc can be found in legumes, seeds, meat, dairy and eggs.

Lutein and zeaxanthin both naturally occur in the retina, which is the lining at the back of the eye. For this reason, it’s a good idea to incorporate these nutrients into your diet – find them in leafy vegetables like spinach and kale, as well as broccoli, raspberries, pawpaw, peaches and mangoes.

Artist and writer @angelika_anastasisart creates work that celebrates and honours the authentic woman.

Originally from Pietermaritzburg, Angelika grew up in a small Greek community. As a child, she was always drawn to creative pursuits and spent much of her time doodling and drawing. After studying and working in Johannesburg, she moved to London where she met and married her husband.

On returning to KZN, Angelika joined the family business, Sunshine Bread – a job she says really toughened her up. Over the years, she wrote and doodled in her free time, but it was only when she started art classes at Pascale Chandler’s studio in Glenwood, that she found a way to truly express herself through painting.

While learning to paint, Angelika also started working on a novel but with three young children, she couldn’t find the time to complete the story. After many years of writing and rewriting, she finally published Nefeli’s Water last year.

Today, Angelika has exhibited her art both nationally and internationally, and has also published her children’s book, Thuli and the Seed of Truth, which was inspired by the work and courage of Thuli Madonsela.

We celebrated Earth Day at the beautiful Beverley

We celebrated Earth Day at the beautiful Beverley Hills Hotel in Umhlanga, where we caught up with Miss Earth @zabeloh_hlabisa, as well as a few of the past winners.

We were treated to a yummy brunch while we listened to informative talks related to conservation and the environment. What an inspiring morning learning more about our impact on the environment and how we can make a positive change.
