I know…who needs another avocado toast recipe? 😉 A few years ago, I tried avocado toast at Clean Juice that used grated boiled eggs. It was delicious! I love the fluffy texture, so I created my own version at home.  A recipe developer and food photographer I am not. Below is more of a recipe […]

Black & white thinking tends to force all of us to put all of our eggs in one “health basket,” but health is rarely found in reductionist, either/or mindsets. It’s time we bring more nuance, discernment, and humility to the health world. We know so little, all things considered!

This was inspired by Defined Dish’s “pan-roasted chicken.” I love her recipe, but over time I adapted it quite a bit. Especially when my Dad came to visit: I embolden the “Italian elements” for him. If you don’t like garlic or cheese, this probably isn’t for you.

Change is hard, but staying trapped in dysfunction is hard, too. However, it doesn’t have to be impossible or overburden you in the process. All options are difficult in their own way, but you get to choose. The options that’s hard now & easy later, or easy now, but harder down the line?

Choose your hard

Our nervous system is the control center of our body- every organ can be compelled by nervous system messages. It’s largely responsible for how awake, motivated, focused, excited, or calm we feel. We have a tremendous ability to regulate our nervous system with simple, accessible tools.

Over the past several years since living in CO and dealing with wildfires, I’ve experienced increased migraines when the air is so heavy with smoke. So, I wanted to share some of the ways I support my body.

It’s easy to lose sight of ALL that our liver does for us. This list represents a tiny percentage of the tasks the liver helps us with. The last phase does not involve chemical alteration but transportation of toxins out of the liver cells.

Toxins from phase 1 are joined with molecules to make them more water-soluble; this makes the toxins less reactive and destructive in the body. Once the toxins are dealt with in phase 2, they can leave the liver and enter the blood or bile ducts to be removed from the body.

Phase 1 liver detoxification is about altering the chemical structure of toxins to make them less toxic, and eventually moving them out of the body. Cytochrome P450 enzymes are present in the highest concentration in the liver and facilitate phase 1 detox by converting toxins into smaller substances or making toxins water soluble.

Many people assume that the liver’s only job is to mitigate toxins- but the liver does much more! It’s not simply the “filter” of your body (and toxins are not stored in the liver!) A better way to view it would be that of a battery pack or metabolic hub.

I work with a lot of people that have been ill for a long time. Even if they haven’t, it’s incredibly discouraging when you don’t feel good and don’t feel like you’re making progress. Remind yourself that symptoms are your body’s way of communicating a need.

Your body isn’t stupid!

Health is important and confidence in appearance is valuable, but we are so much more than health status or fitness level. It’s crucial that we operate from a place of appreciation and support for our bodies, not hatred and obsession.

We live in a world obsessed with extremism and intensity: quick results, shortcuts, busy-ness, hacks, diets, etc. But, when we’re seeking sustainable and enriching health, the answer is rarely eliminating more foods, taking more supplements, trying more modalities, or adding more to our schedule.

Most often when we hear “metabolically healthy,” body fat is the first thing people think about. Defined simply, our metabolism is what turns food into fuel. How efficiently and effectively we can utilize nutrients for energy determines our metabolic health.

Memories are transcribed in our subconscious and can be reactivated with exposure to certain words, a smell, a person, music, etc. When memories are brought to the forefront there is a cascade of emotions, hormones, neurotransmitters, and processes in the body that are stimulated.

I saw a post someone shared calling out holistic wellness practitioners for spiritual bypassing, gaslighting, and toxic positivity. And I get it- journaling, breathwork, and grounding aren’t the panacea for your individual problems or the universal problems we face. Utilizing holistic modalities doesn’t mean you’re ignorant. It is not an either/or- you can find healing through holistic health and utilize western medicine.

Don’t bypass, engage.

I remember the first time I tried rhubarb- I was in Iowa visiting my mom’s family and we picked it straight from the ground…it was honestly one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. They’re crisp, tangy, and sour (but sweeten when cooked!) I get incredibly excited when I find it locally! If you’ve never […]
