This started as an Instagram post last year but I realized this might also be a good place to share… The Monday morning after Thanksgiving last year I woke up and could hardly move. I was incredibly stiff and just felt terrible overall. I was scheduled for a...

“The Cleanse.” It’s become its own entity. I’m not talking coffee enemas, apple cider vinegar for 3 days, or excessive fasting. The cleanse I’m referring to is a 21-day detoxification program designed by Standard Process, a supplement...

I have a bit of a split personality when it comes to Halloween. Sometimes I’m really put off by the dark side that some people get really into (I’ve never been a fan of horror movies)…but the cheesy dressing-up and costume contests–I’m...

To my knowledge, I was in my mid-30s before I ever ate bok choy. Maybe it had been snuck into some dishes previously with me unawares, but it (like many vegetables) was completely off my radar for most of my young adult life. How did I go from that to eating it...

When we were engaged, my apartment in Dallas was very close to the office where The Chiropractor was working as a nutritionist. Since I could never meet him for lunch, I gave him a key to my apartment so that he could grab some food or cook something if he...

April of 2018 was a rough rough time. We had a death in the family, I had a bad flu, and then I became acquainted with “frozen shoulder.” Prior to this I had never heard that phrase or diagnosis. I still don’t completely understand it, but this is what happened to...
