I frequently write about the challenges moms face in terms of getting healthy (and staying there). One of the things I’ve been thinking about recently is the challenge of Me Time. On my personal blog, I shared a little story last week: What I learned about Me Time (and about myself) when my husband and kids […]

It makes sense–Greece is the birthplace of Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine. Have you ever been to Greece? My husband and I went many years ago, in the BC years (Before Children, of course). […]

It’s rare for me to meet a parent who is unfamiliar with bedtime battles. This age-old struggle is crazy making, to be sure. I have known a lot of trying situations in my life, but very little compares to the relentless frustration of trying to wrestle my toddler into bed, night after night. Can you relate? […]

I love dining in restaurants. I mean, delicious food professionally prepared just for me, while I relax and sip my wine…and someone else washes the dishes afterwards? Yes, please.

I’m preparing a workshop called Stress Detox that I’m giving next week, so I’ve been thinking about stress a lot lately. It’s a topic I’ve written about many times in the past…but looking back on my old posts, I think I’ve neglected to give an overall view of my approach to stress management. In the past few […]

A new study was released recently that makes a connection between the regular intake of berries, like strawberries and blueberries, and a reduced risk of heart attacks in women. The study was big: 93,000 subjects strong. The timeline was long: the women were monitored for a period of 18 years. And the benefit was significant: heart […]

Passport To Health is one of my favorite topics…it allows me to talk about two things I love: health and travel. As I’ve said before, we North Americans may be many things, but one thing we’re not? Svelte. Fact is, we can learn a lot from other countries. (And shamelessly steal their health secrets.) Today, […]

Life is like a movie where each of us is following a different script. Yet many of us aren’t happy with the one we’ve been given and secretly wish we were living someone else’s story. While we didn’t consciously choose our scripts, they are a result of our past experiences and repeated choices, which means […]

Ever walk away from a conversation thinking, Why did I say that? Or replay it later in your head and think, “Gosh, I sounded awkward” or “Why didn’t I say something smarter?!” I used to do this all the time. But once I figured out a few key shifts, that awkward, second-guessing feeling basically disappeared. […]

When it comes to goal-setting, many people think that once we choose and set a goal, everything just magically falls into place. Well, spoiler alert; it doesn’t. You don’t rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of what you feed your mind. Every thought, every input, every idea is quietly […]
