I was a bit more conventional back then, so I’m especially thinking of her as I type […]

Female Health, Grounding, Healthy Mindframe, Intuitive Medicine, Soul Healing / By

Recently I got an email from a lovely soul enrolled in my Unlimited Email Plan… …She wanted to know what I recommended for Anti-Aging. Wow… that’s a big topic!   So, I thought I’d share some of my approach with you on the blog today in the hopes that you might get a fresh idea or two to incorporate into your day.   Generally for anti-aging there are three angles you could focus on:   1 — skin (yes it’s superficial but still important and young skin just feels so lovely!) 2 — body/internal health and 3 — the mind.

Skin Care Round Up — holistic moisturizing, exfoliation, and wound healing

Female Health, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By

My skin care motto is: simplify.   Let me tell you a little about my background… Before becoming a full time Mommy I was considering going into Dermatology, so in medical school I took three times the regular amount of training in Dermatology as a result. I also spent four summers throughout college working at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, MD… working with a research team who was investigating oncogenes. And… as I mentioned in my sunscreen article last week, my father was a top scientist at the forefront of melanoma research, so in my lifetime I’ve gotten a
