Juice Feasting, baby! Feeling puffy and nerve endings buzzing means it’s time. Four to six quarts a day. One to five days. All of those veggies and fruits make one quart. I make sure to never go below 1,200 calories, often around 1,800. It’s not about losing ‘weight’. It is about letting go of […]

  I like to keep my skin care simple.  And as natural as I can.  And cheap.  I’m also very cheap. Rising at 3 and 4 am to see the Mister off each morning on the boat is catching up with me. And my skin. Moving my evening routine around and making space for a […]

  First, I made Pad Thai in ten minutes.  And couldn’t stop eating it!  Then I wanted something different so I essentially made the same thing but wrapped it in a rice paper wrapper with fresh mint.  Then I made an easy broccoli salad with minced red bell pepper and this dressing. And I’m still […]

  Food prep day!  Usually twice a week, for about 90 minutes. An hour a week for planning. Usually Sundays and Wednesdays. Chopping, slicing, zoodling. Two dips/ dressings. A snack ball or two. A couple of bags of frozen, sliced bananas (hello, Nicecream!). Even with a garden outside my door, some fresh greens are washed […]

Day three of the hives and we were both over it.  At first, they didn’t bother her and we laughed about her leopard spots.  Then, they really really started itching.  Time to bring out the big guns.  A few tools we use to calm hives (before the big guns): a barely warm bath with 1 […]

  Many years ago, I was a newly single mama. Two little boys. Two jobs. And full time school (proud library sciences drop out!). An Etsy shop, too, just because I was crazy enough. Late one night, a pot of boiling water spilled down my leg. An ER visit I couldn’t afford and left with […]

To see the whole video, click here. Pain, fear, drama…for years I let them distract me from moving forward in my life. In my business and in my wellness. I learned the long hard way that what we focus on grows. Sometimes pain is there to tell us stop. What you’re doing isn’t serving you. […]

Slightly relieved half the wholey unnatural sprinkles spilled all (ALL) over the floor. But those colors- so cheery, I couldn’t resist. Side note. My toes are a little pudgey from some long days lately. My magic mix this morning: * Setting an intention to easily release what is no longer serving me. Always begin with […]
