An Attitude for Approaching the Holidays

As we approach the holidays, remember to nourish yourself with things other than foods. One example from my upcoming book, Vitamin Soup, A Recipe for Soulful Nourishment from A to Z: Vitamin A: Attitude. “Your attitude determines how you interact with your surroundings and the people in them. The way you interpret events and activities [...]

Your Wellness Vision

We interrupt this long drawn-out program on the Four Missing Essential Nutrients to give a little yelp of pleasure and excitement. Tonight, my colleague and co-host, Scott, and I are conducting a Creating Your Wellness Vision Telecoaching call. This is a free thing we are doing as a bonus for our RESET Your Life Telesminar [...]

Vitamin O: “All I Need Is the Air that I Breathe”

We began our discussion of essential nutrients that are necessary for optimal health but that are not necessarily in everyone’s daily diet. Vitamin L, for Love, is the first of four. Vitamin O is the second one. This means we rarely get enough oxygen. Now, for some of you who read this blog, you are [...]

Vitamin L: “All you need is love.”

Love is incredibly nourishing. You know when you’re in love and you’re so high on the feelings you forget to eat, and you can’t concentrate or think of anything but that new special someone? That feeling of giddiness, happiness, and overflowing YUMMMMMMM is what you get when you have an abundance of Vitamin L. The [...]

Nourishment: Think Out of the Bottle

The next few blog posts will be about several essential vitamins that are missing from a lot of people’s lives, but they’re not dietary supplements.

Good Things Come in Sevens

I’ve been thinking. A lot. And I think it’s time for me to start blogging about all these thoughts I’ve been having! Stay tuned and come back often. I’ll probably be doing more blogging and sending my enewsletter subscribers the link to my blog so I can have more of a dialog, because that is [...]

Where’s the love in the food?

Here I am back at the keyboard with so much in my head I can’t get it out fast enough. I’ve been doing some thinking about how to get more nutrition out of the food available to most of us. And I have [lots of] questions I’d love to get your feedback on. When we [...]

Ayurveda-Keeping Your Cool in the Heat (part 1)

Yes, it’s hot outside, but there are things you can do to beat the heat, and you can use food as medicine to do it! Ever heard of Ayurveda? Ayurveda (eye-yoor-VAY-dah), a Sanskrit word that means “the science–or knowledge–of life,” is a 5,000-year-old system of medicine developed in India which is still in practice today, [...]

Grounded on Mother’s Day

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and caretakers out there! Today was the one day out of the 365 (or 366 this year) that is devoted to burnt toast and lukewarm tea, doing something special for the one who does the special stuff all the other days of the year. Tomorrow it will be [...]
