In the United States, approximately 82,000 toxins are in use, but only a fourth have been tested for toxicity. Toxins are in the air we breathe, the food we eat, the medications we take and in the water we drink.

Over the last few days I’ve had the honor to receive some incredible kindness. My dear friend made time from her busy schedule to help manage my table at the Vikasa Expo. A stranger at Starbucks paid for my tea. Another stranger paid my toll at the toll booth. Truth is we’re constantly being showered by love and kindness. Sometimes our minds are pre-occupied and we don’t see it. ... Read the Post
5 Tips for Dealing with Guilt
I want to write about a topic that comes up recurringly in client sessions and conversations with girlfriends. Guilt.

Reflect & Release: Things to do in the Winter Season
Like I mentioned in a previous post, nature and a woman’s body are not very different. Both work in cycles, seasons and rhythms.

They were taught the secrets to ... Read the Post
