FEATURED POST
I had a particularly good day today after many weeks of feeling lost…trying to figure out this temporary new normal...or maybe not? My toddler was happy, I had energy, I was able to stay on task, I was able to do all of the cooking on time and have time at the end of the day to unwind while chatting happily with my husband. I wasn’t tired. I wasn’t irritated for no reason. I wasn’t frustrated. I didn’t feel lonely anymore or unsupported. I felt like I could meet the present uncertainty with resilience for the first time in over four weeks.
It was then, that, I realized that I’d been grieving my life pre-COVID-19 all this time and I had just moved into acceptance.
Happy Friday! Today we are going to talk about a topic that I LOVE & think is so important. If you are like me, a serious home body, then your living space is probably influencing your mood & emotions more than you think.
I recently attended a conference on autoimmune disease back in January. I've been very interested in this topic over the last year because I believe, as the conference & my many recent readings have pointed out, that as the triggers for autoimmune disease have multiplied, our health has entered a state of crisis. I am not writing this to scare you but rather to raise awareness & share how you can make a difference for the future of your health & the future of the health of our planet.
Dietary & lifestyle changes are my two powerhouses in practice. And one of my favorite mottos is that if you care enough you will make it happen. The key word here is ‘enough.’ We all care about our health to some extent. Making an appointment to see me is one step. Adhering to the recommendations is another step. Making the changes habit is yet another. The truth is that we all fall on our own spectrum of really caring.
I’ve recently updated my bio on my website to include an infographic titled ‘How I came to care about everything.’ Check it out if you haven’t already! Today, I want to explain one aspect of that infographic - sustainable conscious living. You will learn how YOU can make little ripples that can amount to BIG change.
