Share Some Christmas Love for Healing and Happiness
During the holiday season it's easy to get caught up in the shop, cook, decorate, and rush mode. For some, there's more mourning than joy. We get all stressed and lose sight of 'the reasons for the season'. With the sudden scary illness of my beloved French Bulldog, Louis, (a vaccine reaction?), my normal distracted rushing about came to a screeching halt. I am again...

De-Stress for Spiritual Health
Do you feel like you're always under a bit of stress or tension, but don't know why? You know something isn't right, but you just can't put your finger on it? Perhaps you are suffering from spiritual dis-stress. Other types of stress are fairly easy to discern, but spiritual stress is not always as obvious.

Beliefs About Your Health: I'm a Victim of My Genes
We all have a set of beliefs about health. They come to us from our families, the media, and authority figures like scientists and doctors. That's all well and good when the beliefs are true, but sometimes, it turns out that as new research reveals new facts, some of them aren't.

Detoxifying: It's Good For Your Health
Have you ever tried a body detox routine? Perhaps you used a seven day cleansing product or put yourself on the ten day lemon drink diet. All these remedies are used in an attempt to rid the body of toxins. Cleansing advice and products abound.

Stinky Cheese
As I rounded the corner to the deli section of our local buying club, I was stopped by a most familiar aroma filling the area. "I know that smell, what is it?" I said to myself. "Ah, yes, provolone. Real provolone," came the answer from the recesses of my mind. And sure enough, there in front of me were stacked beautiful half wheels of one of my favorite cheeses.
