I think this year is the most excited I've been for my Spring Detox, as I really feel like I'm in need of a reset. I always feel more mental clarity, higher energy & enhanced resiliency and who isn't in need of that after the crazy long winter we've had?! Feel free to message with any questions if you would like to join in :)
Happy Spring!

I love this post from Dr. Tori Hudson, ND on the idea of a "nudge" word for 2023 as a positive & gentle reminder throughout the year of how you want to feel and what you would like to achieve. What's your "nudge" word this year?

I know it is popular to start the new year with resolutions with the hope of making a change in habits or life or something for the better. It seems like it has become less useful and meaningful to many, and it caught my attention when a friend of mine sent me something from the Washington Post abou...

I love this perspective on cycle changes by Dr. Tori Hudson, ND (who specializes in female hormonal health). It's a great reminder to tune in and listen to our bodies as the seasons change. Happy fall!

The coming of Autumn always feels like a poignant time to me…. So many things are changing… The nights get a little cooler, the days becoming noticeably shorter, the blackberries on my property fading in numbers of sweet and luscious berries, the harvesting of winter squash, garlic, tree fruits ...

This was written by a woman I admire for all her efforts of spreading love and kindness in her community, and the world at large. I love her take on the fear mainstream media creates, and the alternative ways she's found to stay tuned in while spreading love (instead of fear). Definitely worth a read!

How I am tuning into the latest crisis, by (mindfully) tuning out.

I love you. I am listening.
Two phrases we need more of in our world, always, but especially now.
I was listening to a meditation by Sarah Blondin (who I love and highly recommend tuning in to) this morning that was centered on these 2 powerful, yet tender phrases. It filled my heart to say them both inwardly and out loud; it brought to my mind how as a mother I am often giving of these 2 phrases, but rarely openly accepting them. I can easily get lost in the busyness of my day and after giving love to all of those around me can forget to give it back to myself.
I encourage you all to repeat these to yourself, and then remember to use them openly with those you love and those that need to hear it.
If our world only had more loving and listening going on right now…

Another lockdown for Ontarians means we need to be conscious about our overall immune health, mental wellbeing and daily movement. Here's a free way to engage the mind & body in a positive way this month. I love her yoga videos; if you haven't followed her before maybe now is the time :)

Great little video created by the World Naturopathic Federation to bring awareness of simple things you can do to reduce your environmental toxin exposure. Worth a watch :)

Environmental pollutants are all around us, in the food we eat, the air we breath, and the products we use. These pollutants can be associated with many heal...
