Natural Pharmacist Specializing in natural and holistic approaches to life through essential oils and natural products! I also offer tips and tricks of how to use essential oils!

As a pharmacy manager, I have a stressful job and was looking for a way to naturally relieve my tension throughout the day. I turned to essential oils and it opened up my eyes to all natural ways of healing the body. I used my knowledge of medicine and combined it with my new passion of essential oils to start making natural products using essential oils. I offer everything from soaps, salves, serums, scrubs and aromatherapy roll-ons. Check back often for more info!

Cold and flu season is upon us! What do you do if you develop symptoms? Here is what I always recommend to my patients for a cough. 😷

1. Do you have a wet cough or dry cough? Are you coughing up phlegm or is it a dry, hacking cough.

If you have a wet cough, you need an expectorant to break the mucus up. Go with any product that contains guaifenesin.

If you have a dry, hacking cough, you need a cough suppressant. Go with anything that contains dextromethorphan or look for Delsym.

Or grab a combination product! Mucinex DM and Robitussin DM are most popular. DiabeticTussin is a great option for anyone worried about sugar content.

2. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Water will help thin out mucus, making it easier to cough up. Humidifiers also help keep the air moist, making it less irritating to breathe. Don’t have a humidifier? Sit in a hot shower.

3. Peppermint, eucalyptus and rosemary essential oils are amazing at opening up airways, relieving cough symptoms and nourishing airways. Rub on your chest and breathe deep. Or add a few drops during your hot shower. My favorite trick is to rub peppermint essential oil on my throat when I have a spastic cough. The menthol will calm the airways making it easier to breathe.

4. Did you know allergy meds can help with cold and flu symptoms? If your cough is still bothersome, try an antihistamine or steroid nasal spray. This will help reduced post nasal drip and tingling in the throat that may be causing a cough.

If these don’t work, reach out to your healthcare provider for prescription medication. As always, this is for educational purposes only, please consult your healthcare provider.

Routines are key 🔑 to improved mental health!

Creating your own morning and evening routine has so many benefits:

☀️Your brain makes a million decisions a day. Automating part of your day frees up your brain 🧠 to focus on other things.

☀️Change can be hard for people dealing with mental health. Routines ground you and brings you back to center. 🧘‍♀️

☀️Starting your day by taking care of your mind and body sets you up to have a successful day. If you’re in the right headspace and your body is fueled, you can tackle anything! 💪

☀️Routines create a sense of accomplishment. Accomplishment boosts dopamine, which makes you feel happy and satisfied! 😁

☀️Routines help us to remember to take care of ourselves. By creating a trigger, our brains will remember that we need to take our meds, brush our teeth, wash our face, etc. 💊

Unpopular opinion: you can be healthy at any size.

Health and wellness is not about numbers. It’s about getting your body to a place so you can live the life YOU want.

There are plenty of people who are curvy and healthy and plenty of people who are smaller and unhealthy.

Your body is unique, and your healthcare should be tailored to what YOUR body needs, not someone else’s. You deserve a healthcare provider who feels the same.

You’re beautiful the way you are. Keeping being the queen 👑 you were meant to be!

Mental health requires daily upkeep. Like a garden, you need to tend to it and take out weeds in order to keep it thriving. Sometimes the best things we can do for our health is taking care of our mind, body, and soul.

Make sure you are doing these things in a regular basis:

✨Drink enough water. Try to drink half your body weight in ounces everyday. This will keep your body hydrated and energetic.

✨Move your body everyday. Studies have proven that over time, exercise has been more effective in managing depression than drugs! Start where you can and get those endorphins moving!

✨Have a walk outside. Fresh air and Vitamin D can have amazing benefits on your mood. Plus connecting to the earth, or grounding, has been shown to reduce pain, stress, depression and fatigue. Get outside!

✨Connect with friends. If you’re battling a mental illness it can be extremely lonely. Especially during a global pandemic. You are not alone. Have a goal of reconnecting with one person a week. If possible, go out and meet up. Just remember, social media can do more harm that good! Try taking a social media detox.

Truth 💣: it’s ok to not be ok.

The amount of stress that we have been under this past year and a half has taken a toll on a lot of people’s mental health. It’s ok if you are struggling. You don’t need to have it all together.

The important thing is to:
❤️Check in with yourself
❤️Recognize that something is off
❤️Do something to make yourself feel better

This week is Mental Health Awareness week. I will be sharing lots of tips on what you can do to improve your mental health.

Did you know that coffee has many other health benefits besides waking you up in the morning?

☕️Caffeine from coffee not only gives you energy, but also inhibits a neurotransmitter adenosine. When this happens, dopamine and norepinephrine are increased leading to enhanced memory and mental function. 🧠

☕️Several studies show that coffee increases metabolic rate by 3-11%! No wonder coffee is found in most fat burning supplements. 🏃‍♀️

☕️Coffee contains a lot of essential nutrients. While one cup will not provide your RDI, drinking coffee regularly will bring added benefit to your diet. 💊

☕️Studies have shown that coffee drinkers are 23-50% less likely to develop diabetes type 2, 65% less likely to develop Alzheimer’s, 32-60% less likely to develop Parkinson’s, 15% less likely to develop colorectal cancer and 40% less likely to develop liver cancer. 🤯

☕️A study published from Harvard showed women who drank 4 cups of coffee a day were 20% less likely to develop depression. Nothing like a good cup of joe to make you happy! 😁
