(previously Hand to Heart Healing)

You are free to interpret "Being" as either a verb or a noun, as I do. My mission is to promote my long held belief that the essence of "Human Being" at this time in our world, is to work with three pillars. "CONNECTING" - beginning with ourselves and our family, using touch, the first sense we developed in the womb, so that we can raise children better able to empathize and connect with their community and the world at large. "LIVING" - in a conscious and conscientious way, by acknowledging our responsibility and connection to nature, our local eco-systems and the preservation of our planet; "HEALING" - exploring the many ways to live with more quality of life, by addressing our physical, mental and spiritual health with my hands on services and workshops. PLEASE VISIT THE SERVICES SECTION FOR DETAILS OF SERVICES

💚 A Final Message from Dr. Jane Goodall 💚

In her message to the world, to be shared only after her passing, Jane’s words shine as a lasting beacon of hope and purpose:

“What message do I want to leave? I want to make sure that you all understand that each and every one of you has a role to play. You may not know it. You may not find it. But your life matters, and you are here for a reason.
Every single day you live, you make a difference in the world, and you get to choose the difference that you make.

I want you to understand that we are part of the natural world. And even today when the planet is dark, there is still hope. Don’t lose hope.

We have to do everything in our power to make the world a better place. For the children alive today and for those that will follow. You have it in your power to make a difference. Don’t give up.”

🌿 Jane’s wisdom reminds us that hope is a choice — one we must carry forward through action, compassion, and care for all living things.

Tip 29 of 31We have no idea how many toxins we inadvertently bring into our own homes.

Tip 29 of 31
We have no idea how many toxins we inadvertently bring into our own homes.

Breast Health Challenge Tip #29:

Vacuum or damp mop at least one room in your house today to remove dust.

Dust contains high amounts of brominated fire retardants (also known as PBDEs), which mimic the hormone estrogen and are implicated in breast cancer. PBDEs (one of the most predominant environmental chemicals linked to breast cancer) are commonly used in building materials, electronics, plastics, polyurethane foams, carpets, drapes, mattresses, pyjamas and textiles.

To reduce our exposure to these substances, we can vacuum/mop to keep things dust-free. We. can also be more selective with the kinds of materials and furniture that we bring into our homes.

So, are you ready to tackle the dustballs? 🧹

Breast Health Challenge Tip #28:

Laugh deeply each day.

There are many physiological and psychological benefits to laughter. It strengthens your immune response, stimulates circulation, improves cardiovascular and respiratory function, reduces stress hormones, elevates pain threshold, and releases endorphins, serotonin and dopamine to enhance mental and emotional functioning.

Laughter really is good medicine! So what gets you going with a true, full-belly laugh? Jokes told by your children? A comedy skit? Goofy dogs? A funny book or movie? We'd love to hear your favourite prescriptions in the comments!

Breast Health Challenge Tip #24:

Practice dry brush massage, followed by a 3 minute cold shower. 🚿

Dry skin brushing has many health benefits, including:
•Improvement of your lymphatic circulation to help your body mobilize toxins and cleanse.
•Dead layers of skin are removed and pores go unclogged.
•Blood circulation is increased to the internal organs as well as the skin, which promotes oxygenation and healing.
•The body’s natural defences against the common cold are assisted, especially when used with the hot-cold shower technique.
•Muscle tone is assisted and fat deposits are more evenly spread.

Cold showers are also super beneficial... they promote:
•Increased oxygen absorption
•Increased carbon dioxide excretion
•Increased nitrogen absorption and excretion
•Increased tissue tone
•Increased white blood cell count and thus improved immunity
•Increased T-killer cells
•Increased phagocytic activity (toxin breakdown)
•Increased red blood cell count
•Decreased heart rate
•Heightened metabolism
•Slightly elevated cortisol and thyroid hormone
