What is your perception?
Perception is the only reality. If you feel like you are going nowhere then my friend, you are correct. You get what you think about whether you want it or not. What does your daydream look like right now?
Everyday we wake up, we get consumed with our lives. We have this planned, that planned and we begin to think that we are the story that we live, right? What if I were to ask you who is the author of your story? Could you say that you are the director of your life or are you a supporting actor? Did you consciously decide to create the reality you’re living now, or was it mainly shaped by your parents, friends, spouse, school, or the media?

The Ever Growing Thyroid Issue
It seems like I am hearing about thyroid issues in people more than ever…and it’s happening to younger and younger people. It got me to thinking. Is there something that has changed? Something that we are doing different to cause this increasing and very scary problem?
Americans are always looking for the next best thing, the shortcut. The healthier version, that’s been altered from the way nature intended. Be careful for health buzzwords like gluten free for instance. That doesn’t mean it’s good for you and whole civilizations survived on natural food that came out of the ground with gluten in it. We take something that should be used in moderation and fall off the deep end. Put down the gluten free cookie, it’s not healthy either! OK I’ll blog about that one later.
So there are a lot of chemicals and household foods and items you can avoid to lower your exposure to potential thyroid problems in the future.

With this inclement weather over (hopefully), we are looking at spring moving in pretty quickly. With all of the beautiful things that spring has to offer, there is one thing that many people do NOT look forward to….allergies. With all of those budding flowers and flourishing trees, comes the sneezing and the headaches and the stuffiness. Well, before you reach for that Claritin, try some natural allergy relief.

Recipe| Roasted Veggie Root Mix
As promised, here is the recipe for my Roasted Vegetable Root Mix.

Nothing here needs to be exact. This dish is so healthy and vibrant…. even my two-year-old loves it!
