Holistic Solutions for Back to School Illness

By Tiffany 7 Comments

I have already seen a huge surge of parents on my Facebook feed talking about their kids being sick after only a few days or weeks back at school. Such is life. Kids go back to school, they make new friends, they meet their new teachers, and they come home with less than exciting new illnesses. With so many children in one place if one of them has a runny nose and cough then logically many will end up with it. What can you do? Well, actually there is quite a bit we can do to prevent illness … [Read more...]

Improve Indoor Air Quality and Breathe Easier This Winter

By Tiffany 1 Comment

We need to be concerned with the air quality in our homes because we spend so much time in them. Studies have shown that indoor air can be even more polluted than what we face outside. The EPA says it is 2-5x times more polluted. Why is this? Well, inside we have close proximity to all the dirt, chemicals, and germs we track inside, pet dander, dust mites, mold, VOCs from paint, and other compounds that off-gas from the furniture and others possession we have inside our home. In winter this is … [Read more...]

Nourishing Egg Drop Soup Recipe

By Tiffany 4 Comments

After coming back from my mini vacation in NYC I have been feeling like I am coming down with a cold. It is probably equal parts exposure to germs and letting my diet go off the paleo wagon while traveling. I was in New York though, I had to have bagels and pastries!!! It's practically the law. Anyway I made chicken soup the other night and wanted something else equally nourishing today but didn't have time for chicken soup. In the end some of my farmer's market goodies helped me decide. … [Read more...]

Air Purifiers for a Health and Mood Boost

By Tiffany 5 Comments

A couple weeks ago I wrote about The Winter Blues or more specifically Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and what to do if you suffer during the winter months. One of the things I mentioned that I was doing to combat SAD on my part was to fill the air with negative ions. Quite simply negative ions create positive vibes. Columbia University has done extensive research on these invisible molecules that you typically find near waterfalls, mountains, and beaches. Just think about how the image of … [Read more...]

The Healing Powers of Cinnamon

By Tiffany 1 Comment

This time of year many people love to smell cinnamon and eat dishes that use this aromatic spice. We use it to bake apples, apple pies, pumpkin pies, etc. A house that smells of cinnamon makes us feel warm and content. It has a long history of use in baking yummy desserts and it is one of the oldest known spices. It has a long history as an herbal remedy for colds, flu, and digestive issues. I don't think it is a coincidence that we gravitate towards foods with cinnamon as temperatures dip and … [Read more...]
