That, my friends, is impostor syndrome. I’ll let you into a little secret – when I first launched my […]
So I’ve got exciting news: I’ve decided to start making YouTube videos! Funnily enough, it was something my husband suggested. In recent months I’ve become hooked on YouTube videos for all kinds of things (makeup tutorials, travel vlogs, cooking shows…) and my husband noticed this, of course, and one day he said: you’ve got info […]

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’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 […]

And on my Yummy Mummy Club blog I’ve broken down 10 über-common reasons for that feeling of fatigue. You can read all about them, here, and […]

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).

We’ve all been there—feeling uncomfortable, sluggish, and like our favorite jeans shrank overnight. Belly bloating can sneak up on you when you least expect it (and usually in the worst possible moments, like before a wedding!), leaving you feeling heavy and frumpy.
