How to be calm in a storm. Whew!  THIS is a skill everybody needs! Here are my three favorite self-balancing tools. I don't know about you, but my moods swing like a pendulum every day.

Perhaps our single-most important responsibility is to be present in the moment to uplift our physical-mental-spiritual ...

By Jane Barthelemy. Is Xylitol a healthy sweetener? Touted as a safe sugar substitute for diabetics in snacks, chewing gum, and baking, Xylitol is NOT the low-calorie sweetener it's cracked up to be. Just look at the nutrition label and you'll see it's loaded with calories and carbs. I don't accept that stripping birch bark and thus killing the tree is sustainable or earth-friendly. How is Xylitol produced? How does it affect the body? You deserve to know the truth to ...

Shall we do some MYTH BUSTING? We all know sugar is BAD. And whole foods are GOOD. Yep, we've got that. But WHY do many people eat a whole food diet but still end up with diabetes and heart disease?

These foods may not TASTE sweet, but too much of them CAUSES DISEASE because they IMMEDIATELY become SUGAR. This ...

DEPRESSION is just a name we use to describe many different emotional chemistry patterns in the brain and body. In Western medicine, all these patterns are neatly rolled up into one easy diagnostic term: DEPRESSION. But the root causes are rarely discussed, and true healing methods mostly unknown. Depression is something we do to ourselves. It takes years of habitual stress, emotions, tensions, thoughts, foods, and lifestyle imbalances to create a "Perfect Storm" for Depression. What are the Causes and ...

A few days ago a friend sent me a video of instant noodles under a microscope. What I saw shocked me and opened my eyes to the brave new world, in which our food, air, water, even our own bodies, blood and DNA are weaponized against life without our consent. The videos I'm sharing below outline the challenges we face. I've always cautioned folks against eating processed foods, however now the situation is more serious. I see clear evidence of ...

When times are stressful, everybody needs greater self-care for the Kidney. A few years ago I became very ill with adrenal exhaustion. I had to sell my business (That was a good thing).

I started doing a simple Qigong practice every day, increased my water intake, and became ...

What is Time Restricted Eating? Exciting new research suggests that Time-Restricted-Eating helps us painlessly eat less food to boost our immune system and extend longevity. When we attune our body to its natural circadian clock, our biological rhythms regulate our sleep-wake cycles through the day.

A healthy breakfast means a bowl of cereal with milk and sugar. Right? Isn't this an American tradition? Nope. It’s actually a very recent marketing invention. A tiny mistake in Battle Creek, Michigan in 1870 changed the face of breakfast forever. Harvey Kellogg (recognize the name?) was the director of a popular health retreat. Kellogg was said to treat his guests with many bizarre experiments for health improvement. One of his invention was a whole grain corn breakfast cereal served to his patients, which he dubbed "Granula" (Prounouced Gran-oo-la). The cereal was made of soaked, boiled ...
