This is a friendly reminder that you are doing everything right. You’re exactly where you’re supposed to be doing what you’re supposed to be doing. Every step, every decision, every act, every “mistake”, every job, person, apartment, place, and even pet that comes into your life, was put there for a reason. No matter how […]

Read This When You’re Losing Your $hit
Whether it’s grief, rage, overwhelm or some other emotion that is taking you over and seemingly winning…. follow these steps: Breathe. A lot. Take at least 5 long deep full inhales and even longer fuller exhales. Exhales ground us and calm us down. Feel it. Whatever emotion you are experiencing, let yourself feel it. Keep […]
Let’s Spread Some Loving Kindness
We really are all in this together. Like a ripple in the pond, one action effects the whole, for better or for worse. The choices we make are important. Everyone has their own “stuff”. We all deal with “our stuff” in different ways. Some people stuff it, some people try to process it right away, […]
Do You REALLY Understand Flower Essences?
Some folks think flower essences & essential oils are the same. Often, when I begin offering clients to work with flower essences, they quickly open the bottle to take a big sniff…. To their dismay there is no fragrance to be found other than a hint of alcohol. Flower essences are used, internally, externally and […]

There are often promotions on the latest “super food” or “diet plan”, or “magic libido pill”… etc. etc. Chia, Hoodia, Ginseng, Goji Berries, Maca, Acai, Yohimbe, Horny Goat Weed, Keto […]
Is Caffeine Your Crutch?
Don’t get me wrong! I love my chai tea! I love my sugar! Both are stimulants & affect the adrenals and if long term use persists they can drastically weaken our adrenals. That’s why my motto- as challenging as it may be has always been “everything in moderation-even moderation”. My husband is a wise man […]
