Steps Towards a Healthy Spring and Controlling the Winter Blahs.

Prepping to Cleanse Now

1. Reduce Sugar – My sugar rule is 1-2 times a week – ideally mid-morning, mid-afternoon and paired with activity.  Stop grabbing sugar late in the day as most of us cannot process it.

1A – reach for packaged nuts instead when you get a craving for sugar!  Since I added the snack bowl to the office, I cannot tell you how much it helps me reduce my sugar!

2. Address Constipation.  If you cannot have a movement every day, cleansing can create problems!!  Reabsorbing toxin is a terrible idea and can create brain fog, fatigue, aches and pains and poor sleep.  Add Whole Food Fiber – I love this product.  Add Water.  Add Chinese herbs for Digestion.  Add Multizyme to improve digestion.  Add Betafood – phase one of any cleanse!!  Get started gently and ask for help to improve your results!

This great abundance of yang energy will translate throughout your body because during this season you are active and growing.

According to five element theory, during the summer the organ that receives extra energy is the heart. When the seasons change so do the organs we should focus on in the body. You should focus on the heart during summer. Feed the heart heart-nourishing foods and make sure to remain active so the heart receives positive energy. continue reading »

Fighting Flu Season with Acupuncture

While the flu is actually not a season, we have become programmed to think of it as the months of November through March. On average, the flu hospitalizes thousands every year, especially the young and elderly. There are also a number of deaths related to the flu, mostly due to people already having compromised immune systems.

The flu, also known as influenza, is a highly contagious respiratory infection that is caused by a number of viruses. To date, there are approximately 26 to 30 different known strains of the flu virus. This is one of the reasons the flu vaccine has only mild efficacy. The flu vaccine itself, typically only covers five to seven strains of the flu.  Symptoms of the flu include fever, coughing, a sore throat, fatigue, muscle aches, pains, runny nose and watery eyes. continue reading »
