Own Your Health

If you're lying wide awake at 2am convinced you could run the country, this episode is for you! Katie shares a brand new technique she learned working with renowned shaman Anna Hunt, and it's unlike anything she's covered before.
Drawing on the ancient Chinese Zi Wu energy clock, Katie reveals why the hours between 1 and 3am are so prone to wakefulness, which zodiac power animal governs that window, and how embodying its energy can pull you straight back into deep sleep. She walks you through the full buffalo meditation live, so you can practise it now and have it ready the moment you need it most.

Feeling wired, restless, and unable to switch off? This episode is your reset.
In this guided session, Katie Brindle shares a simple but powerful way to meditate — even if you’ve always struggled to “quiet your mind.” Because the truth is, most people aren’t failing at meditation… they’re just approaching it wrong.
Instead of forcing yourself to go from chaos to calm, Katie shows you how to meet your body where it is — using gentle movement, breath, and awareness to transition naturally into a deep state of rest.
Whether you’re overwhelmed, exhausted, or just need a break from the noise, this is your permission to pause — and your guide to doing it properly.
Press play, get comfortable, and give yourself the rest your body’s been asking for.

What if the secret to a long, happy life isn't about living longer... but about living better? 
In this episode of Own Your Health, Katie Brindle is joined by bestselling author and fitness expert Kate Rowe-Ham, whose brand-new book The Longevity Solution is the essential guide every woman over 40 needs right now.
Together they talk about the difference between healthspan and lifespan, why prevention will always beat cure, and how the simple act of lifting weights could be the single most transformative thing you do for your body, mind, and future independence. Kate shares her personal journey through perimenopause, over-training, and the moment everything shifted, and why strength training isn't about aesthetics, it's about being able to open jam jars, carry the shopping, and get up off the sofa when you're 80.
In this episode:

Why healthspan matters more than lifespan

The truth about strength training and muscle loss after 40

How to start lifting weights with zero experience

Perimenopause, cortisol, and why HIIT may be doing more harm than good

The power of community and real-life human connection

Preventative health screening — what you need to ask your GP

Creating your own Blue Zone, wherever you live

Katie tackles two surprisingly common (and frustrating) issues... eczema around the eyes and breakouts around the nose, especially when they seem to appear out of nowhere. But instead of just treating the symptoms, Katie explains what could really be going on beneath the surface.
Drawing on principles of Chinese medicine, she explores how springtime affects the liver, why your body may be trying to detox through your skin, and how everyday habits could be making things worse without you even realising.

Why do so many of us feel tired, irritable, overwhelmed or just… not quite right?
In this episode of Own Your Health, Katie Brindle tells us about the connection between the liver, the nervous system, and the stress of modern life through the lens of Chinese medicine.
As the seasons change, the body shifts its energetic focus, and according to Chinese medicine, spring is the season of the liver. When that energy becomes blocked or “stagnant”, it can show up in surprising ways... irritability, low mood, headaches, skin flare-ups, fatigue, and a nervous system that feels constantly on edge.
Katie explains why modern life is so disruptive to this delicate balance and shares simple daily practices that can help restore flow and calm the body again – from movement and laughter to walking, stretching, body brushing and reconnecting with nature.
