Nutritional practice I am trying: 48-hour fast For the first time in 42 years, I finally gave my body a chance to recover from all the food I had shoveled in my mouth. I was able to successfully fast for 2 days while only consuming water and decaffeinated tea. I was inspired to do this […]
Zoom I am teaching: Creating Space To Thrive: The Mind Each year I create a theme for the Aligned Life Community. My goal is to help you focus on making each successive year the healthiest yet.
