Here are the three most important things to keep yourself feeling balanced every day

You know how kids have temper tantrums? Or they seem to have an inability to handle life the moment they leave school (but they’re pretty good at holding it together until then). You may not be a parent with young kids, or a parent at all, but we’ve all been kids, had siblings or been around kids enough to know what I’m talking about. And the truth is, adults are not much different than kids when it comes to what they need to handle the daily stresses of life. Three questions to ask yourself when it comes to your mood or someone else’s. Read more

True healing can happen when you do this one thing

There is something I hear over and over and have considered it relevant for years now. There is one obvious experience I’ve had of my own. This one thing is something of doubt and skepticism for many people. I happen to think it’s the most essential thing to healing now, more than I ever have before. It’s not what we eat, the water we drink, the supplements we take or the exercise we engage in. It’s intangible. And don’t get me wrong all of that is important. But this is the elephant in the room. The thing people don’t want to address, or thing they don’t even know is relevant to address. Read more

Could this tiny gland be the reason you feel so tired?

Reposted from February 2022 The average thyroid gland weighs about as much as a tablespoon of almond butter. But the thyroid gland, unlike almond butter, has an almost infinite impact on the way your body functions. Every single cell in your body has thyroid receptors.
