For years, my evenings looked exactly the same: dinner, Netflix, endless scrolling, and bed. I’d tell myself I’d only watch one episode. Or that I’d check my phone for just five minutes. But once I sat down to “unwind,” the night would disappear in a blur. Before I knew it, it was 10:30 pm, and […]
The people of Greece have figured a lot of things out when it comes to knowing how to live a happy, healthy life. 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). […]

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. But…I don’t necessarily love what restaurants do to my waistline. Or my heart health. And a little carrot icon next to a supposedly-healthy menu item is totally not enough for me […]

Whether you love Valentine’s Day, or whether you loathe it…everyone can appreciate a little health boost now and then, am I right? Valentine’s Day and chocolate go hand in hand. Feeling a little guilty about your favorite indulgence? Don’t. Here’s why chocolate is good for you. (Yes, you read that right.) And speaking of pleasurable indulgences…here’s […]

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, […]

(One of my favorite old posts…please indulge me in this re-boot, as I’m busy writing like mad, lost in fictional worlds…) Used to be, all fats were considered bad. We gobbled down low-fat versions of everything, assuming this was the path to true health. This was not a good time in dietary history, as far as I’m […]

You might have heard this: red wine is good for your health. But is it true? And what does it do for you, exactly? I’ve talked about wine before, on this blog, but I had the feeling a more comprehensive roundup of wine’s health benefits was warranted. Are you a wine lover? Curious about the specifics […]

Now I hope this doesn’t cause anyone to lose sleep…but a recent study has shown that people with high blood pressure who also suffer insomnia are much more likely to have resistant high blood pressure (meaning, the kind we just can’t control with medication). Which, to me, adds to the growing body of research that demonstrates the […]

I have long maintained that stress is a major, under-recognized trigger for illness and unwell. I have little doubt that stress contributed to my own health crisis. And now, an important study has come out validating that connection. The study was published this week in the British Medical Journal. It was a large study, looking at […]

When you hear the phrase “rebrand your life,” what comes to mind? Maybe you think of setting new goals, making a vision board, or overhauling your wardrobe. That’s what most people do when they want to “level up.” They make surface-level changes and hope for deep transformation. But here’s the truth: a new outfit won’t […]

I remember approaching my 40th birthday with dread, believing that things were all downhill from here. I thought that as I transitioned from my 30s to my 40s, I would see the world turn its back on me. I thought I’d be sidelined for opportunities and unable to keep up with the younger generations. I […]

If there’s a nagging voice inside telling you that you’re not really living, just existing, you’re likely focusing on the wrong things. You’re moving through the motions, chasing things that don’t matter, and […]

It’s not that we consciously choose to cling to the past or to people who no longer serve us. Rather, our brains are naturally inclined to preserve memories, emotions, and connections – even […]
