 "Touch comes before sight, before speech. It is the first language, and the last, and it always tells the truth." - Margaret Atwood What is cultivated in childhood continues through adulthood. Social connections... physical touch... intimacy... immunity? How are they connected? Let's see...
 "Where flowers bloom, so does hope" - Lady Bird Johnson Spring has sprung! The flowers are blooming and propagating, with that comes lots of pollen! Pollen lets us know that nature is doing its thing, but what does this mean for those with pollen allergies? We do not have to suffer through this beautiful season, we can enjoy and embrace its beauty without the sniffles.
Let's get into some natural pollen allergy remedies, so that everyone can enjoy the beauty of Spring while boosting our immune system!  Happy Women's History Month!
As we celebrate the history of women across the world, we also celebrate the most powerful yet delicate part of being woman--our menstrual cycle. In this blog post, we will get connected with our menstrual cycle, learn to work with our cycle not against it, honor our womb and body, and embrace what it means to be able to bring life earth-side. Tap into your own, unique internal rhythm and flow. Let's begin.. 
Our bodies and minds are connected.
Ever notice your muscles feel tense when you're anxious? Do you tend to hold a lot of stress in your muscles? Some may hold stress within their face or upper body. I know for me, I tend to hold stress in my back and neck muscles. But what do we do about this? .... Progressive Muscle Relaxation!

 "I just need a moment to vent" It's not simply a new wellness fad. Journaling can be for any occasion, any person, or any day.
