Last week I posted a picture on Facebook of a product that I had heard about called Phoney Baloney; it’s a Vegan bacon alternative made from Organic Coconut, which piqued my interest. I was curious how they created a vegan bacon alternative, and though we do eat meat, I limit my intake for personal and […]

I used to hear the word ‘cleanse’ as if it was a 4 letter word. It taunted me, teasing me to consider trying it, knowing the whole time I would have to make some serious compromises from my normal routine. Could I stick to it? How could I manage juicing and raw foods while at […]

I remember the first time I ever had mole sauce; I was visiting some friends in San Diego and we went to a highly recommended Mexican restaurant that served some incredibly delicious food – as authentic as we’ve ever had in Mexico. And when I asked the waiter what he recommended, he didn’t hesitate to […]

John Pinette is an actor and comedian who seems to be on an effort to clean up his diet, and was apparently diagnosed as wheat sensitive. He has some hilarious clips about his journey along this path, poking fun at vegans in a clip about buying 10 pound bags of almonds to make a vegan […]

I was told once that the strength of a belief is more powerful than any other life force; that people who willed themselves to heal, would heal, and those who wished themselves sick with thoughts of self loathing and despair, would end up ill. It seems a far out concept to me sometimes. That if […]

I used to hear the word cleanse and immediately worry about the process; I was nervous about whether I could stick to it, how could I manage juicing and raw foods while at work? Would the hubs be supportive?  Would I be satisfied, or feel hungry the whole time? I remember the first cleanse I […]

This past year has been an amazing one for me. I’ve had some major improvements in my health, am forming an incredible group of healing professionals around us, and been lucky enough to join a group of amazingly talented writers who share their insights, inspirations and life journeys on health and wellness. And this group, […]

Punch Fear in the Face! There are so many reasons I love this. When I was first diagnosed with an auto-immune condition, adrenal fatigue, hormonal and vitamin deficiencies and various other not-so-fun stuff, I was scared. When doctors told me they didn’t know what else to test me for, and wanted to give me tons […]
