The more you focus on those you’re with and the meaning of the day, the less you’ll be freaking out about putting on the weight that you probably won’t gain anyway.
If we’re not cooking, we’re not only losing our physical health, but we’re losing our center – that primal need to give and receive love, to connect, to feel rooted in something so fundamental that without it we are never really whole.

If you’ve suffered from hair loss (even if you don’t have a history of balding), this is a must-read.
Stomach acid is important. Really important. Our digestive system isn’t meant to be a watery pool, it’s meant to be highly acidic so that we can thoroughly break down food and absorb nutrients.

Welcome to the reinvention of Healthful Elements: a brand new website, new coaches (new to Healthful Elements, anyway), and a broader and deeper practice. We still have our core practice areas – hypothyroidism, Hashimoto’s / autoimmunity, and adrenal dysfunction. But it had been my dream to expand beyond what I can offer as a sole coach and things started taking on a life of their own a few months ago. So I went with it. And here we are.
Health coaches are garnering an increasing amount of attention and help fill in the gaps between what the healthcare industry traditionally provides and what many people need.
