This website is dedicated to helping the reader towards better health by taking a holistic, natural approach with a special emphasis on the digestive system. For some of you, changes may come quickly, and for others, reaching your health goals may take some time, even years. The most important thing to remember is that no matter how long it takes, it starts with your first step. Do not be afraid to take that first step towards health, and keep moving forward!

Tips for eating out when you have food allergies: 1. Check out the menu online ahead of time. 2. Use Google to find restaurants in the area that serve to your particular needs. We find that places like hibachi grills are often a better choice for us. 3. Ask the server for their allergen-friendly options. Bonus points if they have a special menu. 4. When in doubt, pack a lunch. Better safe than sorry! And lastly, bring a cute kid with you. Eating out may not be the easiest when there's a ton of things to avoid, but warm snuggles from your sweet freckled date make anything better! . . . #frecklesfordays #lovethisboy
Do you ever have a day where you just need to be your real true self? Not the self that you have to be to survive life (the one who keeps the kids alive and brings home the bacon and who keeps all the pieces of our life together) but the one who does the things that make you content deep down inside? I did all the things I had to do this morning (#homeschooling ), but then I spent the afternoon in the kitchen. Not doing the mandatory stuff, but doing things like organizing and going through cupboards, tossing out old tea and nut butter (I get great satisfaction from throwing things out and minimalizing!!). I baked some new recipes while the house smelled spicy with cinnamon bark, orange, and spruce oil diffusing ❤️ The kids were off playing, and the dog checked in every once in a while to let me know he loves me. It was just for a few hours, but the #homebody in me was happy. . If you had two hours to just forget the world, what would you do? ☕ . . . .
Chronic illness can be invisible, but sometimes it can be so obvious we miss it. These pictures were taken a few years apart and I was the same weight in both of them. The me on the left thought organic was related to organs somehow (no joke, I really did!) -- she lived on junk food, coffee, gluten, and little sleep. The me on the right was gluten free, ate real foods, and used oils instead of meds. But did that mean I was the glowing picture of health that I seemed to be? Not really. My gut was still off, I had some weird symptoms coming and going, and I would often feel tired. Less than a month after this picture was taken, I became very very sick. And yet I hear over and over how good I look! How I've never looked better! And that's the point I want to share here on #worldkindnessday ... There are many of us with chronic illness walking around. Some of us look like the girl on the left, some of us like the girl on the right. Some look worse than both and some even better. But that doesn't change the fact that inside they are battling, all day long. So instead of being kind on just one day out of the year, let's be kinder to all people on every day of the year. Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind, always. . . . .
Succulents how I love thee ... Now if only you would tell me the secrets of how to not kill you. ❤️ . . . #greenthumb #justnotforsucculents #theresgottabeatrick #savethesucculents
I am not fierce. I'm just me. I love puppies and chubby babies. I get on the floor and snuggle with my boys who just ate frozen blueberries when it's below zero out. I cry when my favorite trees are chopped down. I go for drives in the country to clear my head. I am obsessed with the beauty of the sky. I buy dark chocolate not just because it's good for me, but because it means the boys won't want to eat it 😉 (That's about the degree of how mean I get!) . Some feel that you have to be tough to be in business. That you have to be fierce to "compete". But I say that's both crazy and untrue. I don't need to compete. And you don't have to either. Be true to you. Be genuine. Share from your heart. There will always be those eager to learn from you who value the REAL you bring in a world full of unrealities and untruths. . . . #momboss #justbeyou
"To the outside world we all grow old. But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were. We know each other’s hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We live outside the touch of time.”– Clara Ortega . Thankful today for my boys, my family, and my much bigger family of brothers and sisters all across the world! ❤️ . . . #brothers #bondsthatlastforever
