Naturopathic medicine continues to be an emerging answer to Canada's health-care concerns. Including Naturopathic Doctors in publicly funded primary health care settings could be an achievable strategy to fill gaps in staffing and advance the movement toward individualized holistic care. But, to accomplish this, there must be a collaboration with governments to improve access to and coverage of the services NDs provide.

Time to fly little ones.
It was pretty spectacular to watch the parent birds distract the dog and the kitty so their babies could hop to safety. I wonder if even birds feel the stress of parenthood 🤪

I had to stop weeding this patch of garden and wait for these cute little white-crowned sparrows to hatch 😊 Oh well, right 🤷‍♀️?
I found another nest in my flower pot from a dark-eyed junco - can you find it?
Spring is finally here 🌷🐣!

What a difference 4 weeks can make.
It's easy to see the change in these chicks but not quite as easy to see it in ourselves.
Isn't it great that as adults we can continue to grow? Whether it's in experience, skills, understanding, knowledge, appreciation, or many other things, we can do this our whole lives. Usually it requires some intention and discipline, but it is always worth it. Wouldn't it be great if we could see that growth in us like we can see it in baby chicks? Also, aren't they cute? ☺

Fear less, hope more;
eat less, chew more;
whine less, breathe more;
talk less, say more;
hate less, love more;
and all good things are yours.

Part 2 of my spring cleanse! Two days of fruit/veg/herb smoothies followed by step 2 - nothing but one thing.👆 (and a few supplements to help the process along)

There is so much versatility in how to use food to get results in our bodies and this is one powerful tool I know of!

Just thought I'd let you guys know that all Naturopathic docs don't just eat and . 😏🤓😋

As always, I don't recommend cleanses or detoxes without the help of a trained professional. 👩‍⚕️ But I do recommend them! 👍

Spring cleanse time! It's a great time of year to reset and reboot. My plan is focused in resetting my gut because I believe it is one of the parts of our body that has the greatest impact on our overall health. It's a good idea to give our systems a break and a chance to renew at least once per year. If you haven't done any kind of a cleanse or detox before your ND can definately help you do it well.

My little flower bud. So grateful for my kiddos and for beautiful spring!
Happy mothers day to all the kinds of mamas out there - aspiring, soon-to-be, grieving, struggling, long-time, joy-filled, adoptive... and most importantly, my own amazing mother who gave me all the health, strength and wisdom I have today!
I believe this journey of motherhood stretches our hearts to love more than we ever knew we could, and of course with that comes both the joys and the heartaches. But the most worthwhile things in life are usually the hardest, aren't they? May your heart be filled with love today ❤

I may be a bit of a nerd, but I love to spend the weekend this way 🤓
