“Discipline is remembering what you want at a very deep level.” Zen teacher and psychologist Flint Sparks said that in a TEDx Austin talk that I watched a few days ago. I love this definition of discipline! And I suspect it might resonate with you too. When we remember what we want at a very deep level, it’s easier to align our actions with that deep desire. But when we forget what we most truly want, that’s when the temptations of the moment have their way with us. I’m going to give you an...
There’s a fungus among us. In fact, there are many. And where there are fungi, there are fungal toxins, known as mycotoxins. These, my friends, are – according to David Holland, MD – public enemy #1 in the battle against multiple sclerosis. The prime suspect. The one to blame for this MesS. Dr. Holland’s theory makes more sense to me and fits with the evidence I’ve gathered from my own personal experience more than anything else I’ve heard. Dr. Holland, with co-author Doug Kaufmann, have written two books: The Fungus Link and The Fungus...
It’s Thursday night and I’m sitting on the couch with my ex-husband, Mark, watching Man Vs. Wild on Netflix and drinking a glass of white wine. There are many things wrong with this picture. 1. I’m hanging out with my ex-husband. But that can be explained by the fact that he’s in town visiting our daughter and we’ve actually become dear friends. 2. Bear Grylls, the star of Man Vs. Wild, is somewhere in the African desert, squeezing drops of water from elephant dung into his mouth. I get that his choices are either...
“I’ve never drawn in my life,” said my friend Shay. “I don’t know where this is coming from but it feels amazing.” Shay was telling me about her recent transition to a raw food diet and how she suddenly started creating dozens of drawings/watercolor every day. “And, all my health issues are clearing up too. I’ve never felt so good.” “That’s what happens when you eat the sun,” I said. “You’re increasing the light energy in your body. Biophotons, baby, it’s all about the biophotons.” Biophotons are the smallest physical units of light. Our...
Three words. Kit. Kat. Lasagna. I’m in a bad way folks. And what I’m about to share with you is both a cautionary tale and me deciding that the best way to recover is to tell on myself in this very public forum. It all started on Halloween. How cliche, right? Here’s what happened: My daughter wanted to trick or treat with her friend from class. But they were having a Halloween gathering beforehand and invited us to come. So we went. I made the mistake of not eating dinner before I arrived, so...
Emotional eating is a universal issue. All of us have fallen prey to its seductions at one point or another. But emotional eating for people with chronic illness is a serious matter with potentially serious consequences. In this video, I share my 4 most effective strategies to conquer emotional eating. Check it out and tell me what you think in the comments below! The 4 Steps To Stop Emotional Eating And if you haven’t yet, you can also watch the video I released a couple days ago, 7 Steps to Staying On Track With...
You know that web-like crevice between your thumb and index finger? Well I recently got a blister there from sweeping. (Apparently, on the rare occasions when I sweep, I do so with vigor.) So I had this blister, and I popped it so then I had a big cut. And what I discovered is that I use that crevice between my thumb and index finger all the time! Whenever I grab my purse to throw it over my shoulder, for example, it hits that crevice and the cut starts bleeding. Then it starts to...
People don’t like to talk about poop. Poop is a very private matter. It’s a dirty subject, I know. And yet, it needs to be discussed, because many people are, um, stopped up. Holding on too long. Keeping it inside. Unable to get the traffic through the tunnel. But did you know that if you don’t have at least one bowel movement a day your body becomes toxic? Many people don’t know that. For most of my life, I was a once-every-three-days kinda gal, and not only did I think it was normal, but...
As many of you know, I was in New York this past week on work/vacation and I’ve been going through some serious OUCH! material with the whole “wow I just realized my ex-boyfriend is not who I thought he was” brouhaha. Now, before I continue, please play along with me in this quick one-question quiz: Q: What do vacations and heartbreak/severe disillusionment have in common? A: Food. Lots of it. Indulging in said food. Celebrating time off and simultaneously drowning sorrows in said food. Lots of food. Have I mentioned the quantity of the...
A couple days ago I sent out an email asking all of you what the top three biggest problems are in your life right now that you most want solved. Well first I’d like to thank everyone who responded. It was a really powerful experience to hear from so many people at once about what is going on for them. Though the answers were varied, the “greatest hits” were apparent immediately. Many of you are struggling with fatigue, balance, weight issues, money, and getting and staying on a healing diet. In fact, what to...
