An invitation to walk with me...
And let's contemplate the pillar of health: FLOWERS I'll explore how this pillar of health affects us in so many ways...
I'm very excited for a new direction I'll be taking with my inbox inspiration!
I've been wondering "what to do about my emails" for a while. I had a good routine going for a while, and then I had several books come out, and those gave me great focus. And then... I got a little stuck. But as I've been developing content for my podcast and also for my pagan inspired health coaching program, I've been struck by inspiration for my emails! All of my health coaching now follows the Wheel of the Year, which is essentially celebration of the cycles of the seasons. Now, don't get me wrong, I still do all the same things, like helping you tune into your body, overcome emotional eating, get more sleep, gain energy, focus on self care, and generally make your life awesome. However, now there is a beautiful thread of awareness of the natural world around you as you do it! I also thought I'd push myself to tune in more to the cycle of the moon, something I love to do, but also can lose track of when I get busy. Both the moon and the seasons are great for helping us to slow down and connect with ourselves, with the world, with our communities, and more. So, it was stroke obvious genius when I realized my emails should follow the same rhythm! If you are even 10% as excited as I am, you should definitely say YES to some sparkle in your inbox!!!
Plant Magic 101
There are so many ways that we can be in touch with the spirit of the plants around us. On some level, we are always and forever connected with them. Have fun with this quick and easy herbal vinegar infusion, which you can then use in cooking, salad dressings, or even just taking as a tincture, in a mixed drink or cocktail or mocktail, or even as a shot!
It is soooooo easy to make your own herbal tinctures! All you need to do is find some herbals or fruits, and soak them in hard alcohol. It is honestly that easy! They can be used medicinally, or as flavorings in mixologist mixolgy fun, mocktails, cocktails, you name it! Can you be a witch? Yes, you can! I'll teach you how!
Podcast Episode 14: How Glitter Can Help You Lose Weight (and Other Reasons I love Valentine's Day)2/14/2019
A poem by Rumi for Valentine's Day:
Whoever acts with respect will get respect. Whoever brings sweetness will be served almond cake. This Valentine's Day I think we can say that we deserve both, don't we? Respect AND almond cake!! And, yes, you can have both. (And you can lose weight, too.) In this episode I don't recite any poems, though I should probably start to do so! However, I talk about all the many reasons why I love Valentine's Day, and how you can learn to love Valentine's Day, too (if you don't already). I also explain why glitter is so good for you, and how you can put it to use in your own life. And, of course, I always tie it back in with how you can craft a life that sparkles, and how to stay on track for natural weight loss while you celebrate life and live in rhythm with the seasons! #smallsteps #bigmagic #alifethatsparkles

It's sooooo easy to fall into the trap of blaming certain things or people for what is happening to us. Sometimes this is helpful, when it helps you take the pressure of yourself, but sometimes it is hurtful, when it disempowers or distracts us.
Looking at letting go, or forgiving, is a powerful way to shift the blame. How does forgiveness fit into what we are eating and reaching our ideal, natural weight? It's at the heart of the matter! The women I work with are done dieting. They are tired of feeling like eating makes them a failure. They are ready to forgive themselves for falling off the wagon with all the diets of the past, and forgive themselves for ever thinking that a diet would bring them what they desired. I, too, have worked on forgiveness. I used to binge on sugar and swear it off only to binge again days later. It takes forgiveness to stop that cycle. It takes forgiveness to move to something more simple and more powerful. Have listen to how you can apply this approach in your own life!!!

It's time to declutter some of the emotions and energy that we've all been carrying around for the past two years.
Let's be honest: We are living in a crazy time. I know you might have just made the new year's resolution to lose weight or exercise every day or stop eating sugar or whatever... and likely that's already been knocked down and maybe you are feeling kind of hopeless about it already. We need to be a bit gentle on ourselves. You aren't going to succeed by trying to do it all at once. If you are sensitive or empathetic at all, trying to do so is going to leave you more depleted than ever. The secret to success lies in...well, listen to the podcast ;)

The message I keep getting over and over from the universe lately to relax and chill out more. To stop worrying about what my next step is going to be. This does not come natural to me! I am a planner and I am a doer. Sure, I like to relax... But lately usually only during the allotted portion of my calendar or schedule! So I am cultivating more the spirit of unwinding and doing nothing.
I light of that, I also don't want you to try something crazy yet again, because it's new year's, because your friends are doing it... I don't want you to fall off the wagon yet again and beat yourself over that because what those programs are doing is either lying to you (Oh this powder will make you lose weight and give you energy and help you sleep through the night...NOT). OR they are giving you something totally unrealistic to strive for as a goal... I'm sorry... LIVE IN KETOSIS???? THAT'S CRAZY TALK!!! You can eat carbs, my friend! You just can't binge on them. I want you to make the REAL change that will keep you on track FOREVER!!! YES, FOREVER!!! Forever is the only diet that will work, and the good news is that it has to be fun, and relatively easy, and delicious, or it just won't work. So, join me, have fun, move your body, explore the actual emotional triggers that are sabotaging your efforts, understand what is making these changes difficult, and learn to LIVE IN FLOW so you can keep succeeding!!! ?

I absolutely love drinking tea. It is such a wonderful ritual that makes me happy and keeps me grounded.
One of my favorite kinds of tea is chai, or as it's known in India, masala chai. Chai actually just means tea, and if you order chai, you'll get plain black tea. But order masala chai and you get the delicious and warming spiced brew that I'm in love with! It's a radical act to skip the take out paper cups and make your own drinks these days. Doing so is one step towards reclaiming what you put in your body, therefore reclaiming your body, and also reclaiming your HEALTH! Follow along as I make it here! So easy and delicious!
