If you could add ONE thing to your diet every day to help you manage a number of health issues, would it be worth it to you? I’ve asked women both in and out of my Nourished Metabolism community to introduce the Raw Carrot Salad into their diet daily and within 30 days, they saw improvements in…

We are genetically wired to love sweet things. For centuries, humans have figured out how to make things taste better by adding sugar or other sweeteners to food products. What was once used minimally is now in mass production and is a contributor to many, if not most, chronic disease processes due to its impact on blood glucose levels. However, there are alternatives to sugar that don’t impact your health as drastically.

It can feel really hard to prioritize our health during the month of December. Between get togethers, dinners, parties, events, and then capping it all off with New Years...you are offered so many opportunities to enjoy good food and drink.

My absolute favourite way to get around is by walking. I could hike and explore on foot for hours every day. Walking is one of the easiest forms of exercise to do, requires little to no financial investment and has so many health benefits. Yet, sometimes we just want to upgrade on our walk to make it even more impactful.

If you browse the breakfast aisle in any grocery store, you would be lead to believe that processed carbohydrates should be the focus of your first meal of the day.

There is a misconception out there that if you live a low tox lifestyle, you have to eliminate all toxins in your life. This would actually be impossible because you are still going to be exposed to toxins and chemicals simply by living in society.

If I were to ask you what you think is worse, indoor or outdoor air pollution, what would be your answer?

Believe it or not, the quality of the air inside your home is likely worse than the quality of the air outside.

If you’re a regular oiler, then you likely have a few empty bottles kicking around. Instead of throwing them in the recycling, I have some tips for you on how to up-cycle those bottles!

If you love essential oils as much as I do, you have probably accumulated quite a few diffusers around your home. No word of a lie, every room in my home (minus our basement) has a diffuser. While not all of them are running on a daily basis, each diffuser does get used at least every couple of weeks.

Summer is officially here and there is nothing better than sipping on a cold bevvie in the hot weather. I wanted to share four cocktail recipes and their mocktail alternatives for those of us who don’t love the added alcohol.

Managing stress is such a powerful and important part of our health. I believe that stress is an underlying cause to almost all lifestyle issues. You can’t hide from stress…it’s a part of being human.

I used to think that exercise had to be hard, intense, and a full on grind. No pain, no gain. Work until you drop. While that still serves me occasionally, it’s not everyday and ultimately, it’s not for everyone. I love a good sweat session but I also realize that constantly pushing our body to the extreme isn’t healthy. What if working out could not only serve your health but also be something you enjoy doing?
