To those of you who have attended, inquired about and referred others to my newest offerings Small Group Sessions, I am so grateful! In all honesty, I was a bit nervous about how this would work. I have been practicing 1:1 sessions for over a decade and a half and doing something different felt well... more than a bit scary. Despite that, I could see the need and feel the benefit from community care so I moved myself to the side and put these out... into the world. With the first two sessions now under my belt -Hormonal Harmony and Burnout Relief - I am so glad I did not listen to my monkey mind and instead trusted my inner knowing. I have learned so much and absolutely LOVE running these groups. The commitment and courage of others to show up and share each week has been mind-blowing and beyond gratifying to witness. Thank you for trusting me with this new way of practice. PS, I have a few seats left in the next session -Whole Food Formula that starts January 2021, DM to learn more and reserve your spot! xo #communitycare #smallgroups #groupcare #supportgroups #stresssupport #adrenalbalance #hormonehealth #healthsessions #sharedcare #ottawahealth #ottawaliving #ottawahealth #naturopath #naturopathicdoctor #naturopathottawa #naturopathicmedicine #lifestylemedicine #naturopathy #lifestylepodcast #naturopathpodcast #podcasthost #podcastepisode #naturalnutrition #sleephygeine #mindsetmatters #movementchoice #breathwork #hormoneharmony #burnoutrelief #wholefoodformula

I love coffee but it does not always love me! Especially when I overindulge in one too many Americanos. It can leave me feeling jittery, excitable and impact my sleep, digestion, hormones AND I am not willing to give it up! My solution is to enjoy this pleasure while at the same time take steps to decrease the negative impact it might have on my body.... Some lessons I have learned about coffee and me: -Always enjoy my morning mojo with a food that is high in protein -Always drink a glass of water before and after my coffee Bonus points: for adding electrolytes -Keep my total caffeine consumption less than 150 mg per day (that includes chocolate and green teas) -Go for a walk, run or workout after drinking my coffee aka utilize some of that frantic energy -Deep breathing to calm my nervous system -Stay mindful and use all my senses to truly enjoy the total experience Is there any food/drink that you have a similar relationship with?

Hard to say goodbye to this place! Grateful for the gifts I received! I am an unapologetically high drive and type-A person. I have been this way forever and I actually really like this about myself.
