Your Fall Health Checklist: Which Of These Do You Still Need To Do?

  Fall officially starts this month, and for so many of us, the shorter days and longer nights means a dip in our mood. Regardless if we keep daylight saving time or not, remember — humans do not regulate the sun or way the planets move or the hours of the day — the days will continue to shorten the exact same way they always have, and winter will continue to encourage a time of hibernation. Which is great!  We want to stay in rhythm with the seasonal changes of our planet, as each season allows for a different form […]

My Latest Painting (& Why It Might Get You Through A Hard Time)

    Whenever one of my children is going through a time of stress and overwhelm, I remind them how to get through it… think  of a really big wave. The kind that rises up in front of you and, for just a moment, makes you wonder if you can handle what is coming. I knew my children would remember how that feels, playing in the ocean and all of a sudden a much bigger wave is coming towards you… you get an immediate pit in your stomach and only a few seconds to figure out what to do as it

Grounding Heals Trauma. Not Just Helps You Cope… Actually Heals It. Here’s How.

    When we go through something overwhelming, unwanted and out of our control — whether emotional, physical, or psychological — the nervous system immediately shifts into survival mode. This is automatic. It is your body protecting you. Muscles tighten. Breathing becomes shallow and rapid. Heart rate increases. Digestion slows down. Sleep becomes difficult. The brain may even begin to dissociate or remain hypervigilant long after the traumatic event has passed. And the part that hurts your health long term is that trauma decreases your neuroplasticity.  The brain is literally changed from trauma, and the way it works is more

Save Time To Play, Even After Returning To School. It’s Essential For Health At Any Age

Play is not only a relief and a respite from the seriousness that stress, illness and trauma bring to our lives, it is actually therapy.   Play time is therapeutic time, point blank.  Child psychologists use this healing tool often, because play is a child’s way to express and release any inner turmoil or fears that the child doesn’t even consciously know they have.   But it isn’t only therapeutic for children, it’s therapeutic for adults too. In fact, I would argue that engaging in some form of play daily is one of the best things you can do to safeguard your physical health.   From physical

5 Crucial Ways To Support Your Child As They Head Back To School

      It’s mid-august, and that means back-to-school season, so the next few blog posts are here to help support your transition to that this time brings. There can be a lot of stress associated with back-to-school season.   For some, back-to-school means an increased risk of in person bullying (as well as social media bullying) and scary headlines that include school shootings, piled on top of the normal stressors of navigating growing up and figuring out a career goal and growing from a child’s body into an adult body and all the growing pains in between, as well

The Ultimate Indoor Grounding Guide: How To Choose An Indoor Grounding Tool, And Why

  Every year just before fall I always get more and more emails from patients and readers asking how to stay connected to the earth as the outdoors becomes less accessible: kids return to school, the weather gets colder, the days get shorter, and our exposures to the cold and flu start to peak. The latest email I just got asked me: “I’m, confused by all the grounding tools, can you go over them in more detail?  I want to get my entire family into a grounding routine before the kids head back to school.” Yes, absolutely.  Today’s blog post
