You know that favorite Yankee candle of yours? Or that Febreze you spray all over your apartment to make it smell “clean”? Have you ever stopped to think about the fact that the fragrances from these products could negatively impact your health?

Growing up, all I knew was that babies have breast milk or formula and then transition over to rice cereal as they begin to eat food. Since I have a background in holistic nutrition, I found it very odd that pediatricians recommended rice cereal as the first food for babies to try. Knowing that there […]

Giving birth to my daughter changed me in the best way possible. I actually believe that it changed me in many ways, sometimes in ways I haven’t realized until someone points them out to me. When you give birth, you actually meet two new people – your sweet little babe, AND yourself, as a mother. […]

I wanted to chat with you guys about yoga and how amazing it is for your mind and body in general, let alone while you’re pregnant.

I’m sure you can guess by the title – this weeks’ functional food is the  Chia seed! I’m sure you’ve heard all about them by now, they’re an extremely nutrient-dense superfood. Whats a “superfood” you ask? A superfood is defined as “a food that is rich in compounds (such as antioxidants, fiber, or fatty acids) […]

The Functional Food of the week is Avocado! I’m sure all of you have tried an Avocado, but if you haven’t – I have no freakin’ idea what you are waiting for! This fruit is considered one of the most nutrient-dense fruits in the world, it is a superfood in every sense of the word. Some […]

Lost people don’t know this, BUT – raw, local honey is a natural remedy that can be MORE effective than most over-the-counter medicine or prescriptions you’ll find at your pharmacy. It has been used as a form of medicine for thousands of years. It should absolutely be a part of your routine during the winter, […]
