I was talking to a good friend this week about her grandbabies.  These young ladies are very close in age and struggle with sibling rivalry. They are constantly bickering and it’s hard to hang out in their space for too long without just saying “STOP.” Send them to their separate corners and buy yourself a

Let the sun shine. Let the sun shine in … the suuuunnnn shine in! (Thank you for putting a smile on my face, 5th Dimension!) Thursday was the summer solstice … the longest day of the year. My personal favorite! I have been talking a lot about sleep disturbance lately. This weeks’ Let’s Talk Toxins

Today is Father’s Day. Very few men will read this message … … but that isn’t going to stop us from celebrating the male energy that we “super women” depend on to complement our female energy. And, in many households, Mom is also Dad most (or all) of the time. Yes. We are the “whole

I was talking to a friend this week. He knows that I caution against taking supplements long-term. Since he works with several supplement companies, my message appears to directly conflict with what he hears from them. You might feel the same. Why does “everyone” recommend using a supplement to deal with a symptom … except

I had another opportunity to practice what I preach this week. Some foreign invader created havoc in my body. My head felt like it was swollen … inside. Even my teeth hurt. Pressure! If I had been at my office, I could have created a natural remedy to ease the discomfort but I’m working remotely.

Are you one of the millions of women who have been diagnosed with a thyroid malfunction? By the time you hit “midlife,” you have a 1 in 5 chance. I doubt they are including women who have symptoms that often correlate with thyroid issues … … but their bloodwork doesn’t indicate they have a diagnosable

I was the guest on a podcast recently. Actually, a podcast is not really cast on a pod anymore … at least not exclusively. So, we refer to it as a show episode. If you’d like to see some of my previous guest appearances, we have a library of them HERE. This particular show hasn’t

I wasn’t a traditional mom. I was a mom to pets, staff, clients … even significant others. Do I regret it?  Most moms say something like “you don’t know what you’re missing.” And, that’s certainly true.  So, I have no idea what my life would be like WITH a child.  I do know that I

I spent the last few days at a conference with over 2,000 fellow health care professionals.  The conference started with a reminder that taking supplements does very little good … and might even escalate a problem … if toxicity hasn’t been addressed. But, this isn’t new to me or YOU if you’ve been following me

Waking after a night of sound sleep can feel like a miracle … if you struggle to fall asleep or stay asleep. 9 out of 10 women I work with struggle with intermittent insomnia. They wouldn’t think of their sleep disturbance as insomnia … but that’s what it is. This from the Cleveland Clinic …

Most women ask me what supplement they should take to relieve their symptoms … whatever that symptoms may be. I pause for a moment to craft a caring response … but this is what I’m REALLY thinking. You need to identify the root cause! Are you good with wasting money? You’ll have expensive poop! Is

Stress has literally been “in the air” lately. Have you felt it? We have been under the influence of intense planetary energies that are inviting us to make significant changes. And, change is stressful. If you’ve been around for awhile, you know I remind you often that the research shows that 90% of disease is

It’s that time of year again. Just about everyone is struggling to manage the effects of seasonal allergies. It should be a few weeks of discomfort … and it’s behind you for another year. But I find that more and more people are dealing with allergies year-round. And when seasonal effects add to the mix,
