Natural Health and Wellness

I am not keen on the use of antibiotics and would only use them on myself and my children in extreme cases.  My 5 year old son clearly knows this and the other day he said to his grandfather "my friend is always sick and he is always on antibiogrophies".  This is just the cutest thing I have heard in ages..

How often do you recommend that I schedule my reflexology appointments? This is one of the most frequently asked questions from clients. You may have asked it yourself. Rather than offer the "one size fits all" answer, here are some reasons for considering the cumulative effect of reflexology for your personal health and wellness goals. Health challenges are often a part of life for months and even years -- often many years.

(Some sessions may bring nearly indiscernible baby steps. Other times the client is amazed at the dramatic changes.) By allowing their whole being to enter that deep state of relaxation on a regular basis they encourage their whole body toward greater health and wellness for a lifetime. Sometimes new clients "try" a few sessions over 6 or 8 weeks time expecting to see significant resul...

With an often painful home life and being  somewhat of a curiosity in my family growing up, I learned to tune out -- well -- almost everything. It was my survival mode. I've learned this great talent is not necessarily my best friend. Our five senses -- seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, and touching -- are so important in our discovery of life around us, and our overall well-being. A few days ago I posted a link on my Facebook page, briefly outlining using our five senses to recharge. Intrigued by this article because of my personal experiences and light bulb moments, I believed the article would touch others as well. The article quickly skimmed the surface. In the next several blog posts I choose to be transparent with you, my readers, sharing my story of learning to experience and value the senses more deeply. By sharing, I pray your life my be enh...
