Sometimes you need a gentle reminder!

I used to buy flowers weekly. They made me smile and I loved how they filled the room and made it feel more harmonious and how the colors would lift my mood.

A friend gifted me some flowers this week and I am so grateful.

I’m reminded of how easily this fell to the side when life got busier and how easily I can change that.

I’m reminded of how something so simple can be so uplifting.

So, if there’s something that’s fallen away in your life that used to make you smile and bring you joy, may you make the time to bring it back into your life.

I’m curious to hear what that may be for you. Comment 👇

As the end of the year approaches, we prepare for all the change and newness that next year brings.

The resolutions and the things that we will “do” or maybe let go of and no longer do.

Each of us has something that is preventing us from soaring.

🦅

What is that for you?

🦅

Is it too much scrolling & distraction?
Is it too spending much time worrying about what is next?
Or too much time replaying the past? Is it saying yes and overcommitting?
Is it putting your needs last?
Is it a habit that keeps you out of alignment?
Or a relationship that feels draining?

🦅

What needs to go next year to make space for something new?

🦅

Because the new can’t come in if your moments and minutes are all already accounted for!

🦅

It’s in that space, the one that is filled with noise for so many of us, that real change roots itself.

🦅

Not as a resolution for next year or someday, but as real and lasting change.

We woke up to an amazing snowfall this morning!

As I drove to the office, I was admiring the big beautiful snowflakes and also aware of the inconvenience of this drive.

❄️

And sometimes the most beautiful things are the most inconvenient!

❄️

If you’re on a wellness journey, you can relate.

❄️

The beautiful gifts and the gains come with a lot of inconvenience.

❄️

Better physical health, personal peace, mental wellness etc. come with a lot of inconveniences if we are to achieve them.

❄️

If you’re on this path, keep going .

It’s hard and it’s often time consuming.

It is inconvenient and equally beautiful at the same time!

Why wait until January 1st to start?

Whatever you want to work on, let go of or improve doesn’t have to begin the day the calendar changes.

The version of you that you are envisioning and desiring to move towards can be here today!

And it starts by making small changes.

Maybe it’s ….

Eating a balanced meal
Moving when it feels hard
Saying no instead of people pleasing
Getting to bed earlier
Tidying up the house
Putting your phone away earlier
Making time for rest
Pausing before reacting
Getting that gym / yoga membership

Don’t wait until the holidays are over and you’re exhausted.

Whatever you want to work on in 2026; now is your practice run.

A reflection on commitment as we enter a season that is filled with too many of them!

We commit to relationships; and pull out when they get hard.

We commit to jobs; and change them when something better beckons.

We commit to nutritional plans and exercise habits; until they get too hard or the next fad comes our way.

🦆

Today there is always something better, shinier, easier and newer to grab our attention.

There’s always a replacement for things in this disposable external world.

But there isn’t a replacement for your body, mind & spirit.

🦆

So, how can you commit to yourself during this busy time?

(Suggestions: breathe, meditate, chant, stop watching TV, walk barefoot, connect with nature, stretch, move, rest, make nourishing meals, watch the sun rise, breathe consciously, make tea, have a bath, go to sleep earlier)

Ask yourself:
What is non-negotiable to your wellbeing?

And then commit to it unapologetically.

🦆

Tend to your needs.
Say “no” with an open heart.

Otherwise you’ll be depleted and maybe even a tad resentful.

Pledge a commitment to your well-being during this season that demands so much.

Happy thanksgiving 🍁 to you and all of your beloveds!

I spent some time in nature and many moments in gratitude.

I’m thankful for so much, including my lovely patients.

Those that have chosen a different path to healthcare & self care- not from a place of rebellion but rather from a place of self responsibility!

A gratitude practice is a simple, cost effective, easy way to improve your health naturally.

Thankfulness and gratitude have loads of research on its health benefits.

Gratitude lowers cortisol & reduces stress.
Gratitude increases happiness by boosting dopamine and serotonin.
Gratitude boosts immune function.
Gratitude improves heart function and lowers blood pressure.
Gratitude improves sleep.

Gratitude isn’t just for one day.

It’s one of our innate tools for healing and achieving a better quality of life.

It’s available for free; anytime and anywhere.

Dose high!

Pause.
Breathe!

When life is moving quickly, it’s incredibly beneficial to find small moments to slow down and connect with the quiet wisdom of our hearts.

A small pause can help us shift frustration into patience, hurry into ease, and disconnection into compassion.

It can also help us listen more deeply to our own inner guidance and to one another.

There’s medicine in doing less!

Gone are the verdant greens and the warmth of summer. The long days and the eternal sunshine.

☀️

It’s time to welcome in the wetter, windier, shorter and darker days.

🍁

You aren’t meant to BE and behave in the same way now as you did mid July.

Our ancestors knew this.

☀️

Before our lives were filled with LEDs, blue screens and 24/7 illumination, these days were honored.

🍁

Every culture, every religion and every system of medicine before our current one (Ayurvedic, Chinese, naturopathic etc). prepared for these times. The changing of the seasons.

🍁

So slow down.
Go within.
Read.
Sleep more.
Drink tea.
Practice stillness.
Eat heartier foods (not junk!)
Gather in community.

And yes, get outside! Get light.

That’s non negotiable no matter the season.

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

Public service announcement!
Slow down! Breathe!

☀️

I’m a week back from a 2 week hiatus and the stress, anxiety, fear and worry that I am seeing in my beloved patients is so high.

☀️

There’s plenty of reasons for it.

☀️

And there’s plenty of ways that we can mitigate it.

☀️

First, stop.
Close your eyes.
Breathe deeply through your nose!

Even if just for a few moments per day.

☀️

Nostril breathing actives the parasympathetic nervous system , slows the heart and calms the mind.

Whereas mouth breathing, makes us more stressed!

☀️

Seem simple?
It is. And it’s a tool you can use anytime and anywhere.

☀️

Set a timer.
Do it hourly.

Do it while you drive (eyes open please!)

Do it on the toilet.

Do it between calls and emails.

☀️

Do it enough times that your body recognizes the signal and SOFTENS into STILLNESS!

☀️

That’s where the magic is.
That’s where the peace is.
That’s where you come home to you.

☀️

You aren’t going to change this world through worry.

☀️

You change it by tending to you!

Our life medicates us!
Our choices medicate us!

Nothing we do, see, experience is ever neutral!

It’s a plus (+) or its a minus (-)

☀️

If you want to believe that the world is ugly and that life is hard, then continue watching the news. Continue in arguing on social media.

☀️

But if you want to be reminded of the goodness and the beauty, then get out into nature! Surround yourself with good humans or animals !

☀️

Your life is your medicine!
Your choices medicate!

☀️

Choose well!
And dose high!

Healing requires your authentic self to show up! ☀️

The part of you that laughs and giggles and plays. ☀️

Not the part of you that’s over scheduled, doing 5 am fasted workout, counting macros & skimping on what truly “nourishes” you.

What nourishes you?
What makes you laugh?

☀️

Because that’s what the world needs from you!

☀️

Authenticity and connection ripple out and affect everyone you touch.

☀️

And this is the medicine you give others ….& it is needed now. Because we all medicate eveyone we touch!

☀️

I am blessed in the work that I do!

I get to sit, listen, learn from my patients.
I get to say thank you and I love you.

☀️

And in this wild and crazy time, there is also tenderness and beauty.

☀️

And when we show up in our authenticity; we are all the medicine, the salve, the balm for one another!
