Jewelery Reveal #2… reaching for joy!

Uncategorized / By

You all know I wrote the book Jake, A Guinea Pig Finds Adventure to illustrate for folks, young and old, how reaching for joy can change your life. How sometimes a change in perspective… with a little dash of gratitude thrown in… can make the difference between living life in a sanctuary or a cage. Well, I just had to carry my favorite illustration out of that book into a piece of jewelery to wear. Jake, finding triumph as he reaches for joy. I love that feeling of finding unexpected joy in the little things… the moments where my heart […]

Thoughts On Health… Cosmetics

Female Health / By

Clara takes a few pictures of me plucking my eyebrows… and plucking my brows to open up the eye area is my favorite “beauty secret” by far! Although there are many types of preservatives and artificial colors and scents in make up that I’d prefer to avoid, I don’t have any set rules. I prefer not to use formulas with parabens in them, or petroleum products… but at the same time, I have a huge amount of respect for the human body and it’s ability to take in what is wanted, and filter out and excrete what is not. Yep,

My New Line… of Jewelery!

Uncategorized / By

I had planned to reveal a painting I am working on, as I absolutely love it… but alas, it’s not finished yet. Next week, perhaps? But in the meanwhile, I have some exciting news. I’ve been taking some of my spiritual art into a new direction… into jewelery! I love this idea, and I’m very excited about it. I love the idea of carrying a little piece of art around with me… close to my heart. I especially think this could be very meaningful jewelery for folks who have a loved one they carry around in their heart… a husband

Skin Care, Part II

Female Health / By

Thank you so much for such a great discussion about skin care last Monday. I appreciated the comments and the suggestions and insight from readers so much! Wendy gave a great tip to avoid using citrus essential oils on the skin (it increases photosensitivity) and Barbara had a great recommendation for all you locals wanting microdermabrasion (Dawn at Daniel Island Medical Spa) and there are even more great tips if you want to take a look. I don’t have any recent skin-care-related photos to share with this post today, so I thought I’d include some new pics of my wire

My Favorite Thing… about Charleston (right now!)

Positive Parenting / By

Most folks come visit Charleston because of the beautiful historic straw market area… a gorgeous waterfront open aired market that has it’s history in colonial roots. I admit we love it there too… amidst the historical landmarks and buildings and art galleries and pirate dungeon and horse drawn carriages and cobblestone streets… but I have a new favorite. And it has nothing to do with Historic Charleston at all… or anything at all to do with mankind. It has to do with what happened millions of years before man set foot on what is now known as Charleston… a snapshot

Thoughts On Health… FAQ: Skin Care

Female Health / By

This past week I was asked by three different folks about skin care, so I think this topic is calling for me to blog about it! My motto is: simplify. Let me back up and tell you a little about my background… I briefly considered going into Dermatology when I was in med school, so I took three times the regular amount of training in Dermatology as a result. I’ve always been fascinated by skin and surgical procedures, so I really enjoyed those rotations, chock full of both. I also spent four summers throughout college working at the National Cancer

Kids Rule My World! And Everything They Taught Me, I’ve Put Into This Latest eCourse!

Positive Parenting / By

The pictures in today’s post were taken on New Years Eve, at Sullivan’s Island. We had a nice warm day for the last day of 2010… sunny and cool… perfect for rock climbing and beach walking! I love kids. Especially mine 🙂 They have changed my entire existence and I’m richer for it. It’s been such a steep learning curve for me… I’ve gone from being a professional physician and motivated by wanting to succeed in the world of medicine to being a homeschooling mother whose heart does backflips watching my children eat breakfast. I really didn’t feel particularly maternal
