I want you to WIN, like so badly! Sisterhood accelerates the journey and makes it so much more enjoyable. I have this SUPER fun 5 day challenge starting today over on our public Wild Collective Facebook page, I would love for you to join our community. ... My good friends and I were talking over the weekend and discussing how uncomfortable it can be in the growth phase (healthcare goals, life goals, etc), sometimes it can feel all so foreign and well, uncomfortable. We are here for continuous expansion and sisterhood is the secret sauce of success. My one friend said that she would rather be uncomfortable together and evolving, than alone and staying the same. I couldn’t agree more. This is what I want for you, I want to see you succeed, I want to celebrate with you. Let’s make 2021 the year of you, the year you speak your truth, trust yourself implicitly and rise to any and all challenges. There is still time to join us, tell me I will see you there!

This week on the podcast I am joined by Dr. Paul Hrkal, a naturopathic doctor with a clinical focus on neurological health, chronic pain, and brain injuries. We discuss female and male brain, the differences, how that impacts us from a concussion perspective. So how is the female brain impacted by concussions and what are the hormonal ramifications of that. We discuss how our sex hormones, ovulation, thyroid function and stress hormones are impacted after concussion. ... We talk a lot about the gaps in health care and how it's so important and how individuals with concussion might be missed and how to actually access care with clinicians who have a clinic focused special interest and helping these individuals thrive. We also discuss which phase in the menstrual cycle that women are more susceptible or at risk from adverse reaction to concussion. Do you have a guess what phase it is? I think you will love this episode, I know I did.

The body is the servant of the mind. It obeys the operations of the mind, whether they be deliberately chosen or automatically expressed. At the bidding of unlawful thoughts the body rapidly into disease and decay; at the command of glad and beautiful thoughts it becomes clothed with youthfulness and beauty. - As A Man Thinketh Want thriving health? It most definitely begins with self loving thoughts. Here are some of our favourite ways to get our thinking right:... meditation @lisaknapper.nd is our chief zen master our favourite meditation app is Insight Timer, Sarah Blondin’s meditations are a must for all our divine feminine Wild ones mindset coaching our faves are @adele_wellness and @dr.shyamalakiru journaling affirmations our favourite app Think Up The quality of your thoughts = The quality of your health Do you agree?

Have you met Dr. Maisam yet? She is our lovely IV ND here at The Poppy Clinic. Curious about IV Vitamin Therapy? ... IV vitamin infusions are highly bioavailable, making them immensely effective and a therapy that is gaining popularity for improving overall well being and treating specific health concerns. Vitamin infusion therapy safely delivers key vitamins and essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream intravenously. In bypassing the digestive system, a much higher level of nutrition is delivered directly to your cells. These nutrients then provide the basic building blocks required by each cell in your body enabling you to achieve improved health and wellness. Vitamins, minerals, amino acids and other natural agents are typically used in an infusion. We have a menu of IV vitamin cocktails for you to choose from. Dr. Maisam can also customize your IV Cocktail based on your individual needs, because she’s awesome like that! We have rebranded our IV clinic and we cannot wait to share that with you. Stay tuned and until then get yourself hooked up with a complimentary meet & greet appointment with Dr. Maisam to see if IV vitamin therapy is right for you! See you in our beautiful IV community space soon!

This week on the Rebel Talk podcast I have a powerful conversation with Melissa Biscardi, an Osteopathic Therapist (DOMP) with a clinical focus on brain health and concussions. She is a crusader for brain health. It is her mission to help people achieve maximum brain health after concussion and across the lifespan. Our brains can age with strength and resilience. We discuss when we should consider having our brain assessed, concussion or not. Melissa debunks som...e common myths about what to do after someone gets a concussion and talks about how she assesses and treats a patient with a concussion injury. Listen to the episode to get a better understanding of concussions, brain optimization, how our hormones are impacted by concussion injuries, simple ways you can protect your most important asset and the type of treatment that is available to you. Link to listen: https://podcasts.apple.com//podca/rebel-talk/id1438194737 I sure would appreciate a 5-star rating and raving review if you love the podcast.

Imagine a world in which menopause is recognized as a healthy, organic step in a woman’s evolutionary journey to her deep self. A woman knows she’s been prepared for this moment, even as she might feel trepidation. Because she has developed impeccable self-care from years of living and loving her cycle. She knows her physical and emotional vulnerabilities and how to care for them. ... She willingly accepts the necessary challenge of menopause, knowing that post- menopause she’ll step into the vital and powerful role of serving her community and the world. She knows she’ll be profoundly met and respected as smart, wise, authoritative and beautiful older woman.- Wild Power I didn’t write this, but it is my hearts desire beautifully articulated. So why mess with a beautiful thing? Today on the Rebel Talk Podcast I’m doing a deep dive on Menstrual Cycle Power. If you don’t know about it, you can’t leverage it as your superpower.

How do you say goodbye to a person who you both totally adore and will miss greatly, but also so excited that they are about to embark on their journey to connection, family and a new home? Well, I am not sure exactly, but I am going to try by putting it on social media... ;) This is our beloved ND, Dr. Kirsty's last day at the office and I can tell you that she will be greatly missed. From the start she has been the perfect fit for our community. This badass ND and m...om has been one of the hardest working team members. Her calm and grounded energy has been a much needed force. She is so committed to the health of her patients and she does so with a confidence and grace that you don't come by everyday. Dr. Kirsty has been huge supporter of our mission and is the embodiment of women supporting women and she makes the best IV formulations around! (luckily, these amazing formulations will stay with the clinic). Even though she is off to the Sun + Surf she is maintaining a virtual practice with the clinic. We expect her back drop to be of the warm, sunny beaches, which in itself will be stress relieving for our community... You're welcome! Kirsty, it has been an absolute pleasure getting to know you over the last few years. You have been so supportive, positive, committed and flexible through all our growth. You came into our lives when we needed you most and it has been an honour to work alongside of you. And even though we stay connected through virtual practice, your presence in person will be greatly missed. Thank you for choosing us here at Poppy to thrive in your IV practice, we all love you very much! Feel free to comment here with your well wishes for Dr. Kirsty, I will read them to her as we give each other our last IV exchanges over our lunch date today ps. Stay tuned for our announcement of our new IV ND pps. Wild Collective retreat in Costa Rica anyone? Next time we meet, we may be bringing our Wild community to you! xo See more

This week on the Rebel Talk podcast I am talking all about Pregnancy and postpartum care. Supporting women during their pregnancy and postpartum care is my clinical focus and passion, so I am sharing everything I know to support you on your journey. 11 years into clinical practice there are some things I think women need to know to advocate for themselves, information they need to make empowered decisions and I am sharing all of that with you today.... Today is the first episode of another 3 part series- all about 1st Trimester care. Here is what you will learn: - The 2 first phone calls to make as soon as you have a positive pregnancy test (after telling loved ones of course) - Tests to consider either before or in your first trimester - Midwife or OB - Supplements to consider - Symptoms of the 1st trimester - Natural treatment options - Nutrition and exercise Please share this one with all the pregnant mamas and mamas to be. I hope you love this one as much as I loved recording it. (Also- picture is likely not trimester accurate, likely more of a 2nd trimester bump, but I didnt have any earlier photos) So there is another tip for you, take photos of all stages because you are going to want to remember.

Poppy is 3! This feels like a massive milestone. The first few years are the most challenging in small business, throw a pandemic in there and it makes it highly interesting! We want to thank you for choosing us as your healthcare team. We are honoured to support the community of Oakville and surrounding area....

We are your home away from home, optimizing health, providing much needed community and a safe space to play with new health concepts, all the while seeing you as the pure potential that you have always been destined to be. I (Michelle) want to express a heartfelt thank you for your support over the last few months. This has been a very challenging time. Our business drastically changed literally overnight. There were moments of fear, feeling very uncertain, as I am sure many of you felt as well. During this time, many of you checked in with us, transitioned smoothly into virtual medicine and continued to purchase your supplements through us. I cannot begin to express my gratitude. It was my deepest joy to be able to get to connect with you, be able to keep you healthy and find a new rhythm and flow. As we slowly return to life and reopening the clinic, we are excited to evolve our delivery care model to continue and elevate your healthcare experience. Thank you for supporting Poppy. We appreciate you, we see you.

We have received directive from the Ministry of Health and the Naturopathic College that we can begin the gradual restart of deferred and non-essential/elective services! This includes IV therapy, B12 injections and some in-person appointments.... We are easing back to care slowly, as we need to ensure we are following the directive requirements. We are starting with care that we have not been able to provide in the last few months: - IV Vitamin Therapy - B 12 injections - Acupuncture (pain management, stress, labour induction, cosmetic acupuncture, etc) If you have been waiting for your B12 or IV appointments, please contact us at [email protected], we will be working out our scheduling of these services over the coming weeks.

Most care will remain virtual for the first 4-6 weeks of reopening as we are given more direction and to continue to provide safe care for everyone who needs to come to the office.

We strive to help improve adherence and integration of new lifestyle habits, therefore offering weekly coaching calls in nutrition, lifestyle, education and mindset support. Rebel Tribe: Community and group health is the transformational healthcare experience that we offer at Poppy. It is a 10 month program with a healthcare program that we think every women should have to be able to make informed decisions and have an empowered healthcare experience. The sisterhood is what helps women be more successful in achieving their goals. The transformation, bravery and living in alignment wth your core values is just the bonus byproduct of hanging out wth high vibration, like-minded women. We recommend every women at Poppy be enrolled in Rebel Tribe, its the secret sauce to our amazing results. One-on-One care: This care model is one everyone is familiar with, it is what is often selected. However, relying solely on this delivery of care makes it challenging to transform. This is when you should be meeting with your strategist, your ND to discuss symptoms, testing, lifestyle and nutrition and co-creating a plan that is in alignment with your goals. Individualized Plan + Support + resources = Results Allowing for more time to occur between visits (saving you money), the support you need to transform (hello sisterhood of Rebel Tribe). This model is patient-centric, allows for the time and support needed for true transformation and is more cost effective. Youre welcome! Poppy loves you. See more

This week on the Rebel Talk podcast we are talking all about the VAGUS nerve. I am joined by Dr. Stephanie Canestraro and she breaks down the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, how to connect with your inner calm and functional tests and supplements to boost your immune system. Dr. Stephanie Canestraro is a Functional Medicine Practitioner and by trade, a Chiropractor. She amalgamates the two worlds with a very unique approach to help her patients attain ultima...te wellness. Her passion for helping others recover from chronic conditions relating to gut-brain connection comes from her personal battle with brain-based inflammation that stemmed from her serious undiagnosed gastro-intestional issues. She now uses her insights to help eliminate symptoms of any gut-brain associated diseases or just increase overall vitality using advanced functional medicine testing, individualized supplement protocols, lifestyle medicine, acupuncture, soft-tissue techniques, and mind-body techniques. In this episode, we discuss all about Stephanies journey working through gastro-intestional issues as a child and into adulthood, becoming a Chiropractor, and leaving her business to practice functional medicine. We talk all about the Vagus Nerve, how she teaches athletes to understand their heart rate variability, and how to leverage the parasympathetic mode, the rest and digest, and even heart math as a way to understand and tap into this superpower, which is cultivating your calm.

Have you met our girl Cait yet? If you haven't let us share our love for her a little bit. Cait Mizzi is a certified nutritional practitioner, with a functional based practice focused on human health optimization. Having graduated with first class honours from the Institute of Holistic Nutrition, and specific continued education in immunology, Cait has dedicated thousands of hours and years of study and research into understanding the intricate relationship bet...ween the human body, the lifestyle choices that we make and the foods that we choose to eat. Caits passionate journey in health and wellness began as a result of her own life-long struggle with autoimmune disease, and her journey through and out of the sick-care system. Having gained control over both of her conditions, she strives to educate, motivate, inspire and support others to do the same. Her practice focuses on total health optimization from pediatrics to geriatrics. Although Cait is well-known for her expertise in the ketogenic space, she ensures that bio-individuality is at the forefront of every protocol and plan, and that clients are steeped in knowledge in order to feel confident, autonomous and an integral part of their own healing. Through a comprehensive initial intake session and appropriate functional testing, each client will receive a personalized plan that suits their biologically individual needs and is designed to help guide, reach and maintain their specific health goals.

#Repost @caitmizzi Food freedom and intuitive eating Like most things in the wellness space, things tend to get taken out of context and to the extreme. While well-meaning, these terms are of no exception.... Dont get me wrong, I am completely aligned with the fundamental philosophies of intuitive eating. Listening, respecting and accepting the physiological signals that our body sends. But, Im not so sure that its really all that helpful to tout, at least, initially. In practice, I talk about hunger cues with clients, at length. These days though, it usually isnt hunger that drives the desire to eat, or stop eating for that matter. More often, its boredom, emotion, fatigue, cravings, the presence of certain people, places or things, social pressures and plainly, routine. We are so disconnected from what we actually need, that it becomes nearly impossible to interpret our individual signalling as a warning sign, or as an indicator of normal, whatever that even means anymore! If you ask me, without a decent foundation of nutritional principles in place, intuitive eating is a recipe for disaster. If the diet consists mainly of highly processed and refined carbohydrates and sugar, you better believe your body is going to continue to tell you that it wants more highly processed and refined carbohydrates and sugar. Hyperpalatable foods destroy the bodys ability to self-regulate. In fact, they are designed, quite on purpose, to do just that. We are shamed should we decide to apply science and human biology to our own lives, or when we seek professional help to do so. There is endless research showing the harmful effects of sugar, excess carbohydrate, trans fat and vegetable oil consumption. This isnt diet culture, this is valuable information that we should respect, not ignore! Food freedom is complicated and it doesnt look or feel the same for everyone. However, always consider, is your choice truly freeing? Or is it holding you hostage? See more
