Remineralize to recover from burnout

"Why doesn't everyone know about this remineralizing thing?", said a client recently after feeling like she came back from a deep state of burnout, desperately trying to get through every day in survival mode. 

That's a good question. Now that you can be diagnosed with burnout according the World Health Organization, it's time to get the word out to the masses. 

While there are MANY things leading the modern woman into burnout, not being able to have a fully charged battery in the first place creates an ongoing conundrum. What allows us to keep our human battery charged with potent electrical potential? You guessed it, MINERALS.

I've been on a hot mission the past 6 years to educate others and help my clients remineralize their body. This year I decided it was time to share all my knowledge, from experience in a way more people could benefit from. 

I created an online program called; REMINERALIZE to take people through a step by step education so they can start putting...

The sluggish bile connection to slow metabolism

Bile acts like Pac-Man in the liver and intestines where it gobbles up fats, heavy metals, pesticides, unwanted bacteria, and numerous other chemicals that can cause problems in the digestive tract.

Bile is a digestive fluid created by your liver and stored in your gallbladder. Bile is important in digestion and absorption of fat in the small intestine.

If your body has sludgy bile your mood will suffer. You can even become constipated and anxious!

Bitter foods, like my current obsession, radicchio; help you digest your food. This is important because if you don't digest well you don't benefit from the good real food you just ate.

BITTER stimulates your liver to produce BILE.

Bile helps your body break down the healthy fats you eat so you can readily absorb them as well as your fat soluble vitamins.

I love to pair bitter foods with meals that I know have a fair amount of fat, like my chicken salad that has quite a bit of mayo AND some additional olive oil.


Bile secreted by your...

PODCAST: Mindful (Impactful) Movement with Master TTapp Trainer Margaret Barry

In this episode I have a very fascinating and empowering conversation with my colleague Margaret Barry about mindful but impactful movement with TTapp.

Since many of my clients come to me in a state of burnout or chronic fatigue, talking about appropriate effective movement is a must have conversation. Too much or too little while ignoring the lymphatic system and fascia is very common. 

Listen in to learn the myriad of benefits from this modality of movement- that saves you time, does not require a gym or equipment, increases bone density, targets multiple muscles with each move, pumps your lymph, helps keep your fascia smooth and can benefit anyone. 

I had so much fun talking to Margaret, my inner nerd was so turned on learning all about the body in such a holistic way. This episode is one to listen to more than once. Enjoy!

How to receive natural magnetic energy

 

You can create a lifestyle conducive to your health or hack your health in the lifestyle that led you to decline. You decide.

Many years ago I read about about grounding. You know how you read about all the things that are good for your health, but then don’t end up habituating them right away.

Sometimes it’s just about planting the seed within you so you can embody it in your own way and timing.

Fortunately, my adrenal burnout led me to recreate my entire lifestyle. I ended up living in the woods near a creek trail in my first home post-divorce. I grew to love those woods as I believe it was their magic that nursed me back to health and brought me back to life.

My first attempts at nature walks were feeble. I could only walk about 10-15 minutes at a time without getting out of breath. So I decided to start there. Eventually, my body grew stronger and I could walk 4-5 miles a day and sometimes even 6-7.

I remember the first time I allowed myself to go into the woods and...

How to live through one of the craziest times ever

Staying at home this past 6 weeks or so has proven to be quite a test to many of you. It's one of the craziest times ever for most of you. And there is no playbook, no survival guide. That said, I have some thoughts to help support you through this bizarre time.

In the beginning of quarantine, you may have worried too much about the potential health hazards. Perhaps you still are, but this over-worrying has made it impossible for you to actually experience and enjoy your life. Yes, even during a pandemic it's okay to still experience joy and all that life as to offer.

Perhaps you've held on to the worry as a protection. So you don't get careless. You are afraid to let go of the worry because you might expose yourself and get sick. While this could be true, it's still possible to LIVE today.

Life is for living, not preoccupying yourself with what MIGHT happen should you go outside. You need to get outside, strengthen your muscles both physically and mentally. Doing so will create a...

How to spark your enthusiasm for life

You're in your head too much, stressing, not sleeping. You feel like 100 tabs are open in your brain at all times. Perhaps you've become addicted to stress.

Your mind won't quit, you feel incredibly anxious and irritable, your body starts to revolt and then you begin to question your own sanity. Have I gone mad? Am I entirely losing my mind?

You literally feel guilty when you aren't on top of everything but yet you find yourself paralyzed in your chair not able to mobilize. All the while feeling guilt and shame because you are not being productive enough. But what you don't know, is your body is wise to park your ass for awhile.

You see, you can't run on fumes my friend. You can't run on an empty battery, you aren't the energizer bunny. You have to recharge your batteries. EVERY.SINGLE.DAY.

You as a grown ass woman still need to rest but also PLAY.

You wonder why you've lost your sense of fun and stopped creating your art, stopped making your music or stopped writing your novel?
