Announcing our Gradual Re-Opening - https://mailchi.mp/fde136/announcing-our-gradual-re-opening
It is hard to cope with stressful situations, especially when they happen on a regular basis. Over the long term, stress can have devastating impacts to one’s overall health. This can in turn lead to heart disease, unhealthy levels of cholesterol, and high blood pressure. Finding ways that you can deal with stress so that it doesn’t knock you down is a smart, proactive step towards overall management of both your mental and physical wellbeing. Check out Karen Spencer's latest blog for tips on enjoying a much more calm and peaceful daily life. https://www.itcanbedifferent.ca/best-stress-management-tec/ #itcanbedifferent #itcanbedifferentnlp #karenspencernlp #nlpaurora #nlpnewmarket #nlpyorkregion #karenspencer #neurolinguisticprogramming #neurolinguisticprogrammer #anxiety #stress #stressmanagement

Most people experience feelings of anxiety before an important event such as a big exam, business presentation or first date. Stress in this type of situation is normal and it is a proportional reaction to an external pressure. Most people will experience some form of anxiousness in their lives and for the majority, the feelings of nervousness and worry disappear as soon as the event has passed. Check out Karen Spencer's latest blog to learn more about living with anxiety https://www.itcanbedifferent.ca/living-with-anxiety/ #itcanbedifferent #itcanbedifferentnlp #karenspencernlp #nlpaurora #nlpnewmarket #nlpyorkregion #karenspencer #neurolinguisticprogramming #neurolinguisticprogrammer #anxiety #livingwithanxiety
Are you ready to take that step forward towards something new, untried, and adventurous? Do you find yourself imagining your desired future and then pulling back when it is time act? Why is it that some people see all the reasons why not to do something instead of all the reasons why to do something? To be able to embrace our future in ways different from our past, we must be ok with uncertainty, the unknown, and the untested. For a lot people however, the fear of failure is... a huge barrier that holds them back from this new way of experiencing life. This is especially true for entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs are so closely entangled with their business that their identity and ego are immersed in their venture. When things do not go as they desired, it can feel that they are broken at their core. It can be devastating, and it can be paralyzing.

Often, I get asked what NLP life coaching is and how is it different from therapy. I thought it would be a good idea to start off the new year answering this question. NLP coaching is founded on the principle that excellence in communication can be achieved by anyone. NLP coaching focuses on the communication between individuals, groups and self. Whether you look at an NLP life coach or a therapist’s practice, it is important to appreciate that both approaches have a goal to ...understand behaviours, emotions and patterns so that meaningful change can be achieved.

Do you ever wish you felt better about yourself? Would you say that you have low self-esteem? Do you feel like you are constantly bombarded by upsetting thoughts? Mostly about yourself and your inability to get anything done or even started? If you have a history with anxiety then the answers to these questions are most likely yes. What is common amongst people with low self-esteem is that they are generally motivated to avoid disappointment as opposed to focused on achieveme...nt. As a result, they get locked in inaction. This inaction is often rooted in perfectionism because perfectionism encourages you look at what is wrong and not at what is going well. Perfectionism is toxic. It holds back anyone who wants to make a positive impact on their life, family, community, and the world. Low self-esteem and perfectionism both sound like this: I can’t look for my ideal job because I don’t think I am good enough. Or perhaps, I can’t start online dating because I haven’t lost those last 10 pounds.

Happy New Year from your local health and wellness experts - https://mailchi.mp//happy-new-year-from-your-local-health-
Colds and flus have plagued mankind for millennia. We all end up getting sick at one point or another. In fact, nature, in its wisdom, has ensured it. Contracting viruses allows our immune system to develop and maintain strength as we age So, since we can’t avoid germs and illness altogether, the next best thing is to create an environment within the body and our surroundings where viruses and bacteria don’t readily survive Read my latest blog post for some of the ways we can... create an inhospitable environment for germs. https://herbalnorth.ca/preventing-respiratory-illness/ #health #nature #wellness #cold #germs #winter #alternativemedicine #alternativehealing #herbalmedicine #herbalnorth
It seems that any spare moments or idle time is filled with being on our phones either checking emails, posting photos to our Instagram accounts, logging onto Facebook or texting friends, family or colleagues. The shrinking of our leisure time has been largely influenced by the anxiety generated due to the global recession in 2008. We have become so devoted to our work and to getting ahead that we are willing to sacrifice our free time. Check out my blog on Reclaiming Leisure Time for more about how we can improve the ways we spend our free time on https://www.itcanbedifferent.ca/ #karenspencer #karenspencernlp #nlpkarenspencer #nlpaurora #nlpyorkregion #sparetime #socialmedia #leisuretime #loveyourself #acceptyourself #anxiety #depression #combatanxiety

#Repost @herbalnorth (@get_repost) If you go back far enough, you’ll find herbalists were either born into an herbalist family or were chosen and trained by the wise woman practicing down the street, ensuring the community never went without a healer Go back even further and the medicine man getting on in years looked around the huts of his village for an appropriate trainee by searching for the right personality; the rare child that showed the signs of a healer... Interestingly enough, as much as things have changed, I’ve found there are still a lot of similarities between herbalists when we start comparing childhoods. Here are some of the trends and some of the signs that were traditionally sought out #herbalism #alternativemedicine #herbalmedicine #childhood #healing #healers #herbalist #herbalnorth #nature #wilderness #alternativehealing

After her appointment at the wellness centre it was ascertained that our mutual client was experiencing a lot of tension in the ligaments and musculature in the pelvic region. As a result I was able to create a one of a kind womb oil that encourages relaxation as well as an herbal tea that supports what is being done by the other practitioners at the centre. At Out of the Woods we really want to provide you with a one of a kind experience and get you back to wellness naturally and as efficiently as possible. #outofthewoodeswellness #uterus #womboil #herbalnorth #herbalmedicine #madeincanada #massage #osteopathy

What Is Clean? In short, clean has little to do with gleaming countertops and white teeth.

Bev the Herbalist here! It's the root of this beautiful plant you're looking for here and although the taste will put hair on your chest it's a very valuable herb to have and one I use at least once a month. Native Americans use this amazing plant for PMS, low back and muscle cramping, specific menopausal symptoms and when menses is absent. They rightly called it Squaw Root but also found it quite effective for rheumatic pain, muscle and back pain as well. DO NOT USE in pr...egnancy though to be safe. #blackcohosh #herbalremedies #herbalnorth #PMS
Bev here! As we get close to Mother’s Day, I thought it would be fun to continue focusing on the feminine and let you in on an interesting link between the ancient perspectives of women and scientific fact. Did you know that when a woman is pregnant with a girl, the female fetus develops all of the eggs she will use in adulthood while in utero? So, in a very real and tangible way, all women were formed with the help of their grandmothers. How well our grandmothers lived, t...heir diet, and lifestyle greatly affected our development. I invite you to read this month's blog about the life-cycle journey of a woman, from "Maiden", to "Mother" to "Crone". Here is the full article: https://herbalnorth.ca/a-portrait-of-grandmothers-mothers-/ See more

Bev, the resident Herbalist, here! Although women have been compared to the earth and the powers of creation for thousands of years, there are some other, very tangible, reasons why women have an intimate and inextricable connection to the planet and specifically, plants In this blog, I explore the female connection to plants, our history and how embracing nature is so natural for us Read my newest blog here: https://herbalnorth.ca/women-and-plants-share-a-unique-con/
Ginger Root! This beautiful plant does much more than help with nausea and tummy ache! When you add ginger to an herbal tea you are adding a stimulant that gets the blood moving so the other herbs in a formula are driven further into the body. Ginger also has an affinity to the respiratory system as well as the GI so feel free to take it when you're knee deep in a head cold and when you are starting to feel feverish. Ginger helps to us sweat letting excess heat out of our pores. Ginger also helps the body increase its energy so consider having a fresh ginger tea when you hit that 3-5pm slump. Ginger root tea has been given to those in the labour room when it's taking a long time and to help rally everyone to keep going. #gingerroot #herbalnorth #outofthewoodswellness #herbsforenergy #herbalnauseasupport #herbsforacold

Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) is the herb of remembrance mentioned in folklore over the centuries. In fact Shakespeare mentions it in one of his plays. Studies validate this historical view as smelling Rosemary essential oil has shown to help boost memory. Both the leaves and the oil were considered highly valuable medicine and rosemary has multiple applications that go far beyond memory enhancement. #herbalnorth #rosemary #rosemaryessentialoil #herbalmedicine #outofthewoodeswellness

Bev the herbalist here! Today I thought I would cover Witch Hazel (Hamamelis virginiana)! This plant is used mostly for its astringency to reduce redness and swelling. However Witch Hazel's strength really shines in venous issues. In cases of hemorrhoids or varicose veins this plants causes slight contractions in the veins and helps move blood back into the system while toning relaxed tissues to regain their original shape and vigour. #herbalmedicine #herbalnorth #witchhazel #varicoseveins

As we move into the fall and back to routine our to-do lists can start to seem endless, but what if we focused on what we've done instead of what we have left to do? Karen Spencer touches on this topic below. https://outofthewoodswellness.com/a-list-of-accomplishments/

It's not about the tea, it's about the plant. As an herbalist it can be frustrating as many people associate you with the big tea makers out there that sell herbs with flavouring and scents that make tea taste like candy or fruit. But for the herbalist it has never been about the tea. It is ALL about the plants and how and when to use them to help the body. Hot water just happens to be the medium through which the body receives the plant. ... #plantmedicine #herbalism #canada #herbalnorth
I'll be at Moonflowers September 22nd!! So excited!!!
I often educate my patients about the true origin of their pain, and it usually doesn't have anything to do with an injury or damaged tissue. Results found on imaging (x-rays, MRIs) are often normal changes that people without pain will also have, and there are many dangers to both patient and practitioner in putting too much weight on those reports. This article beautifully explains these concepts. https://www.afr.com//feeling-pain-get-active-how-to-recogn
Did you know that when you blush so does your stomach? Our digestive system is strongly linked to the nervous system and when our digestion is off we can experience anxiety, insomnia and other similar discomforts. Herbal remedies can help.

Bev the herbalist here! I'm reading up on Russian herbalism now and it's proved to be very interesting!! Apparently "Russian herbalists were able to cure infected wounds with banya mold...in the thirteenth century,...this predates the development of penicillin in England by seven centuries." Amazing! #herbalmedicine #herbalnorth

Hi everyone! Bev the herbalist here! This is Scutellaria lateriflora or the plant more commonly known as Scullcap is a nervous system superhero because it helps the nervous system restore itself over time.

One of my all time favourites, a tree going back to antiquity and a faerie tree with stories of both reverence and fear surrounding it. The big benefit that the Elder tree (Sambucus Canadensis) provides us with today is it's potent anti-viral properties that can help us through colds and flus more comfortably and rapidly. The leaves, bark, flowers and berries can be used medicinally but this plant must be prepared correctly or it will show it's emetic properties pretty qui...ckly (in other words, it will make you vomit). In some cases, it can cause an upset stomach even when prepared properly. We use it here at the house quite regularly and can readily attest to how effective Elder is when winter illness comes calling! #eldertree #herbalnorth #antiviral
