Tips to Spring Clean Your Body!

Spring Forward with 5 Tips for a Gentle Detox - Spring is coming! In Alberta we are firmly planted in the spring of deception after hitting 18 degrees yesterday in Calgary! The parks were booming this weekend, and everyone is eager to get outside in the beautiful weather, especially after the year we’ve had! Spring is a time of renewal for the earth as the trees begin to bud, sap begins to flow, and flowers start to peek out of the ground with their fresh green shoots. Spring is also an excellent time for us to do a renewal of our own, and a great way to start that is to do a gentle body detox.

Furious and Frustrate? How to eat for Calm?

Pandemic Pandemonium or Pandemic Pacified

It has become apparent that the tension in the air is rising. I have seen more and more videos of individuals losing their cool in what should be a simple conversation. I personally experienced a friend’s frustration at having to wait in line. She just got so frustrated she left the line and went home. When she got home, she was so mad at herself she ate a bag of chips! Things just spiraled from there.

Want to Live Longer? Here's What You Need!

Live Longer AND Live Well Longer - There is a misconception out there that our health has improved because we are living longer. If you look at the statistics for Canada in 1970 the average lifespan was almost 73 years and as of 2019, that number has risen to 80 years for males and 84 years for females. But the question must be asked, are we living WELL longer?

Build Your Microbiome With Gut Goodies

Last week we talked about some signs and symptoms your gut might be giving you that it needs support. There were the tummy troubles, sugar cravings, weight fluctuations and skin issues. Some of these signs seem obvious but others like skin troubles might not be. This week let’s discuss some simple ways that we can start the process of re-balancing the microbiome and food happens to be at the center.

Trouble with Your Tummy?

When there are things going on with our microbiome balance and our digestive and intestinal systems, it can be subtle at first but can lead to bigger health concerns if not dealt with upfront. Do you know if your gut needs support? Do you know what signs your body is giving you that indicate your microbiome needs help?

Sauerkraut: Real and Raw

What is your sauerkraut doing for your gut?

There are very few of us that NEVER deal with gut issues. Gas, bloating, constipation, diarrhea and more. I am dedicated to helping those that are dealing with these embarrassing issues and feel they have no where to turn. I once dealt with these issues daily and have done the research to figure out some simple solutions. I learned the power of adding fermented foods to help and with so many choices there is likely an option that will fit even the most discerning palate.

What's Up With Dairy and Wheat?

The Diary and Wheat Debate

It’s very common for me to have a new client discuss with me their fears about having to give up staples in their diet. Some of these staples include wheat, dairy, corn and soy. I am shocked at how these healthy foods have gotten such a bad reputation! Recently there are even more that are being cast in a negative light like lentils and even bone broth!

Is your body asking for movement?

It’s spring!! The weather is improving and we have been cooped up all winter trying to stay warm. I can feel the urge to get outside and get some sun! How about you? Stress, hard work, and lots of thinking create tension in the body, which can lead to chronic aches, tightness, and constipation. Many people try to alleviate these symptoms with alcohol and sugar, which ultimately worsen their unease and anesthetize the body. Exercise is a great way to release built up physical tension.

New Years Accountability

by Penny DeJager and Megan Barefoot

It’s two weeks into 2019 and it’s time to check in and see if you are still following your resolution. I had one friend resolve to a “dry January” and has slipped up already. This friend didn’t just slip up, they have given up! Another friend was going cold turkey on sugar. They lasted ten days and gave in to half a chocolate bar to deal with the withdrawal headaches. Big goals can mean Big results but they might also need Big support!
