Dear nourishing hero Reader, How does a song go viral, or a new restaurant pick up customers so fast? The definition of collective consciousness: is a sociological concept that refers to common ideas, attitudes, beliefs, and knowledge that are shared amongst a social group, organization, or society. We can share similar preferences and cravings with each other. These preferences unite us and we feel seen, supported, and connected to our fellow humans. But then we also trigger the heck out of...

Dear nourishing hero Reader, Why is it that some days we feel we can take on anything and then others we want to stay curled up in a ball? As an avid seeker, trying ANYTHING new to feel hope and satisfaction, and wanting to be saved from outside sources, health protocols, diets, the next NEW thing or you name it, I decided to lay down the seeking addict in me and replace this by learning and practicing self-trust. These manic emotions, anxiety, co-dependent insecurities, and desperate...

Dear nourishing hero Reader, I began my nutrition career, 30 years ago due to major digestive distress as a young person and adult. I claimed myself to be a digestion expert. Well, I have news for us, our hormones change EVERY 7 years, so what we once knew may have worked, may not now. And some of you may know, that healing and health isn't a straight line, it can throw us some doozy curve balls along the way. However, there is a WAY to detangle and problem-solve with ease. A dear friend is...

Dear nourishing hero Reader, Are you wavering if you ‘should’ do Keto, Vegan, Intermittent Fast, or all of the above? As a recovering “good girl”, perfectionist, and active REBEL, initially, these diets look appealing. Then the anxiety and obsessive energy kick in. I am back to second-guessing and not trusting myself. This inner confusion and the constant inner battle are the main culprits. I was recently reintroduced to Gretchen Rubin’s work. She suggests when we ask one simple question,...

Dear nourishing hero Reader, Is this you? Do you become frustrated when… You saw results from a certain program the first time, then didn’t the second time. When you feel stuck, you have self-defeating thoughts and feel too drained to go to the grocery store. You numb out and emotionally eat, which leaves you feeling guilty and angry. You are following a program perfectly but not noticing any changes. Hint: The missing ingredient is working with your nervous system and feelings. This is an...

Dear nourishing hero Reader, I have been doing this clinical nutrition and relationship with food, and emotional eating for a while. Some days I feel like I am expanding and other days I feel like I am curled up in a ball and kicked in the gut. When does this end? I have some good and not-so-good news.
