How To Quickly Align With Health

  My daughter and I were Earthingâ„¢ on the sidelines, watching my son play a football game last week… …and I witnessed his team choose a play and follow through on it over, and over, and over again.     It didn’t matter if the play was a pass, if it was a run, if it was a screen, if it was an audible… …the team had success when they picked a play and everyone aligned with that choice the best they could.   It reminded me of the work of healing.   Healing is this: making a choice and

Our circadian rhythm was in concert with the earth and ensured that we got deep, restorative sleep in order to face the next day.   These days, artificial lighting and long work days mean that most people (myself included!) have some sort of sleep abnormality and/or circadian rhythm disruption. Although we know that lack of sleep causes everything from memory problems, fatigue, decreased concentration, stress, and increased food cravings, a recent study

Similar to my Balloons for Audry event I wanted her to share her story here today because I adore what she has decided to do, to contribute what she can to a very personal and worthwhile cause, as you’ll read below: “My husband was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in March of 2009 but was able to have a surgery called a Whipple Procedure in April.
