Lucet Mundi launches this autumn, with a debut in The Jeweller. The brand was launched with the following dream in mind: to produce designer jewellery collections with a little something special added – as well as the natural shine in all of our baubles. With a passion for the various esoteric symbols and secrets from different ages and all around the world, the force of these mysteries should hopefully give a natural lift to everyone who is lucky to be wearing them.

Lucet Mundi means “Light of the Universe” in Latin, celebrating diversity and synchronicity.

Each piece in the collection has a story to tell; the owner is invited to interpret this to his or her own imagination, once it is clicked firmly into place on the wrist. The designs are hip and hot on the season’s trends, retailing from approximately £30 – £150.

To inaugurate the brand, three collections are being launched – The ‘Lucky Amulets’ collection with symbolism in mind; after all, how much more meaningful to give a gift with some depth…your mates will truly respect you. The ‘Power Beads’ do exactly as their name says –they bestow power and protection. The ‘Chinese Zodiac’ collection offers some Eastern wisdom to our daily routine, featuring the signs of the animals that we all know and love.

In the beginning, jewellery was made to adorn the body. These adornments sometimes gave the wearer magical powers, depending on which specific metal and gemstones had been used in each item of jewellery. Recently, that original symbolic divinity has been resurrected back into the jewellery world, particularly prevalent in times of natural and economic crisis. Supernatural influences reigned forth once more, this time via manufacturers and designers with plenty of fanfare to boot.

Molly Brown is featured this month in the Autumn issue of Angels & Urchins magazine with the Angelina Ballerina fabulous ‘Best Friend’s Locket’ and ‘Let’s Dance’ bracelet.

Going back to school has never been so glam!

And then I was hooked. Homeopathy made sense for the first time. All cynicism fell to the way side. Trust me

Non-Surgical Facelift Acupuncture and Homeopathic Mesotherapy

Debrief on my recent session with Dr Telnikoff:

Following a thorough mental and physical questionnaire – written and verbal – nothing was allowed to slip through the net and unexplored. Whether the question was regarding my stress levels, sleep, diet, work, friendships, relationships or drink and food intake, quite literally everything to do with my day-to-day existence was brought to the table. This included my extremely yukky side; that most unattractive trait which faithfully materializes whenever hungry, and attacks anyone anywhere near me whether on foot, road, rail or air.

A plethora of questions came my way; how am I before, during and after eating? Tell me your complaints and moans. Literally, every bit of me was interrogated. As Tatyana so eloquently puts it, “We all need a routine and we all need to put in the effort. I think that looking after our health is a job like any other.”

By our very nature, us Brits are still rather hesitant with regards to anything alternative in the world of healthcare.Blending her own unique holistic methods and philosophies into the mix, she has nevertheless managed to create a huge following.

She recommends vitamins and dietary supplements, “helping my clients to rid their bodies of toxins. After just a week, the next stage of rejuvenation is even more successful. So often do we forget what it is to be fit. And we subsequently become dissatisfied with our bodies. But when things improve after the first session, clients begin to understand the possibilities. It is only through a mutual relationship between the client and doctor, when success will be achieved”.

Operating from London’s Wimpole Street, Tatyana Telnikoff is a qualified doctor specialising in non-surgical face-lift acupuncture and homeopathic mesotherapy, establishing her practice in 1995. Since then, Tatyana has received her fair share of opinions and attitudes towards homeopathy here in the UK. With excellent client testimonials that confirm her methods are a force to be reckoned with, Tatyana’s success flies in the face of adversity. Her aim is “not just to improve the appearance of my clients’ skin, but to improve their physical and spiritual health, from the inside out.”

Tatyana is no stranger to traditional medicine. Although Qualifying as a medical Doctor in her native Russia, she has decided to specialise in alternative medicine, soon realising the benefits of holistic medicine with an extraordinary success rate to cure a host of allergies. Treating illness from within is key to Tatyana, “after all, our lungs and intestines mirror the general condition of our body as a whole”.

What is Mesotherapy?

A therapeutic technique which is growing in popularity across Europe, Mesotherapy is the practise of acupuncture using miniscule quantities of specially made homeopathic medicine inserted into the mesoderm, which is the top layer of the skin. Components of the natural remedy consist of antioxidants and vitamins which have the capacity to awaken the production of the body’s collagen, which begin to slow down with age. This remedy helps remove toxins, improves lymph flow and circulation, thus normalising skin nourishment.

The Benefits of Homeopathy

The benefits of homeopathic medicine are enormous. Homeopathy works on a molecular level, encouraging our receptors to respond, whereas the chemicals in prescription drugs cause our system, our receptors, to desensitise. Each cell in our body houses a receptor; our organ cells and skin receptors will respond better with homeopathy For example, it is a well-known fact that the more painkillers we take, it is likely we will require a higher dose the next time we need them, the same goes with sleeping pills and anti-depressants.

After the session

There are no side effects, natural self-healing is stimulated through the whole body. With the help of mesotherapy and acupuncture, the meridians of the stomach, intestines and gall bladder can be stimulated. These meridians pass alongside the face and necks, therefore applying acupuncture to these points to tighten the skin of the face, the internal organs are automatically treated too.
Immediately following the treatment, the client’s complexion literally glows and there is a noticeable reduction in lines and wrinkles, hair-loss, hair and neck rejuvenation. And this effect is not just a one-hit-wonder; this actually lasts. Generally speaking after 2-3 sessions, results are visible, depending on how recent the problem and the elasticity of the skin is immediately enhanced.

The treatment is also perfect for a host of other complaints, wherby more than three sessions will be required; cellulite, frozen shoulder, sports injuries, migraine, work-stress, insomnia, cystitis and many more.
“After the age of 35, the growth hormone starts to decrease; this is when the ageing process commences. It is particularly important from this age to pay attention to diet, exercise, vitamins and supplements and to the skin. Of course we are naturally programmed to age, but we can slow down the process, which is a complexity of genetics, biochemistry, physiology and behaviour. After all, doesn’t it make sense that being happy, thinking positively and being healthy all contribute to with living a longer life!”
