Our feelings are signals within our body designed to guide us to the next best step, for our growth and evolution. Our feelings alert us when we are out of balance, because the body's true desire is to be in balance. If we listen and understand how to interpret the messages of our emotions, we can use the signals to provide ourselves with what we need.

Many people turn to energy drinks, coffee & sweets to receive a ‘pick me up’ only to be left with the sugar crash accompanied a few hours later. So what is the answer to sustained lasting energy throughout your day? Of course this question is multi-faceted but an easy place to start is by eating complex carbohydrates.
Diets. Fads. Eat eggs. Don’t eat eggs. It is so difficult to keep up with what is right and wrong in the nutritional world! Which is why I focus on bio-individuality and principles that are not so rigid in thinking, more so reflective of personal needs and environmental impact.
Energetic Eating involves using the elements to balance the body’s specific needs.
What do you consider your cross to bear? After reading this blog, might you consider looking for the silver lining in your life? I would love to hear about what you find if you decide to take on this challenge.
To live a life fully is to be really brave and yet not take everything so seriously. I hope you enjoy reading more about what I have learned through my trial and path to recovery.
It is my personal belief that almost anything under the sun has a cure. I believe in a benevolent world and that our suffering and pain can also be a salve. So while I was diagnosed with an auto-immune disorder, I do not claim it. I do believe my body can and will be restored. I understand what it is like to have lived with that label and that is what I am sharing with you today….lessons that came from this experience. I am so grateful to find the silver lining, it has literally been life-saving.
When I first begin to work with new clients they are often surprised when I suggest no more calorie counting or crazy restrictions. Instead, we focus on what is out of balance and how to bring them back to a balanced state. Often we regard weight gain (or lack of weight loss) with laziness or lack of determination. I do not believe this to be true!
For example, could you consider for a moment, that maybe your lack of being able to make it to the gym is an actual compromise your body is making because of its lack of energy reserves?
The holiday season can be a joyful, connected time of year and for many, it can be a time of year that brings up old wounds, feelings of loneliness and yucky head and chest colds.
We are elemental beings. Made up of the same stuff as stars, mountains and oceans. As elemental beings we are strongly influenced by the elements around us. For example, feelings of loneliness, or old wounds, can be triggered by being around the energy of family and old friends, or lack there of.
This exercise was shared with me during my time at Integrative Nutrition. Joshua Rosenthal is the founder of IIN and provided many wonderful tools to help us decide what is important to us. I am sharing this exercise, as I know that it can provide guidance for you as well. This can be performed in reality, or you can use your imagination in each scenario.
Today I share my top tips for bending time…yes I said bending, because my approach to ‘time management’ really translates to focusing on the quality of your choices, which means sometimes you have to spend time to make time. This approach is more quantum, as opposed to linear. It is true that time and space is relative, so maybe it is time to upgrade your idea of what it means to ‘be effective’.
You may be wondering why I am mentioning this at all. I share this with you because today I want to talk about something that is not so peaches n' cream, but I believe having an understanding of this topic to be a necessary facet of supporting your multi-dimensional wellbeing.
This topic is dear to my heart because I have a really hard time with dishonesty and people being taken advantage of. Today we will dive into the topic of the ‘Smoke & Mirrors’ we are subjected to as citizens and consumers.
I have only one holiday bugaboo, the decline of a healthy routine. With all of the holiday scurry, a solid eating and healthy movement plan is usually the first thing to go. Many even feel guilty about devoting this time to healthy habits when there are so many presents to be bought and friends and family to visit. However, it is my personal goal to maintain my level of health throughout the holiday season, while enjoying the festivities and heart of the season.
When we are centered, it is easier to know what we need and the more we activate our Intuitive abilities, the greater access we have to this part of ourselves. Love is an actual vibration, one of which we are naturally attuned to if only we can stay curious and surrender. From this space we tap into transformational healing and awareness of our interconnectedness to all.
While technology is advancing, literally at lightning speed, our bodies have not evolved as quickly. So as we try to keep up with the bajillionth update on our iphones we are getting further and further away from listening to our bodies and inner selves. I don’t need to quote any statistics to illustrate the fact that our bodies’ are in a health crisis; with diseases on a steep incline from Alzheimer’s to Diabetes. It’s time we sloooowww down, listen to our bodies, and enjoy our families.
A non-negotiable, or principle, helps create healthy boundaries which supports you in having interdependent relationships rather than codependent ones. This includes with yourself, others and your environment. Why is this important? Codependency pulls on and drains your health, there are varying degrees of victim mentality. An interdependent relationship includes parties who do their work to be healed, whole and integrated. Therefore energy and health is uplifted!
It didn't take very long for me to experience emotional release, during my practice. I had flashes of memories that had previously been incomplete. I experienced spontaneous crying or heat & itching in specific areas. I couldn't really explain my experience, as I had no point of reference! I also could not deny my experience because I always felt better after, lighter even.
