This experience has not only taught us invaluable information about pet care, but it has also introduced us to alternative treatments and prevention methods for cancer. We are thrilled to share our learnings and spread awareness, empowering every pet parent to provide the best care possible.

In a world where chronic health issues are on the rise, it's easy to get lost in a sea of symptoms and potential causes.

If you’re still searching for the missing link to your chronic health struggles, a possible tongue tie could be worth exploring. While commonly associated with infants and breastfeeding difficulties, tongue ties can persist into adulthood and wreak havoc on your overall health.

From digestive issues to sleep disturbances, migraines to anxiety – these seemingly unrelated symptoms can all be traced back to the impact of tongue ties on the intricate network of the fascia and vagus nerve. It may seem too good to be true, but the fascinating connection between tongue ties and chronic health issues is backed by an ever-growing body of research.

If you're still searching for answers to your chronic health issues, it’s worth exploring the possibility of a tongue tie. We hope these resources prove helpful in taking the next steps towards uncovering the hidden ties that may be impacting your wellbeing.

When we encounter setbacks, it's natural to feel discouraged or disappointed. However, staying curious about what we view as a setback allows us to see beyond the surface level and recognize the lessons hidden within these moments. It encourages us to pause, reflect, and consciously choose a different path or approach.

Setbacks can serve as wake-up calls, urging us to reevaluate our goals, reexamine our methods, explore alternative possibilities, or even redirect our entire life's trajectory. By embracing setbacks as opportunities, we gain the power to pivot, adapt, and make choices that align more closely with our true desires and values.

So, let's remember that setbacks are not the end of our journey but rather stepping stones towards personal growth and self-improvement. By viewing them as opportunities to consciously choose differently, we can navigate life's challenges with optimism, determination, and a willingness to embrace change.

In July, we found out about our beloved dog Harley's battle with a very aggressive cancerous tumor. The tumor in his a**l sac had already grown to the size of a plumb and had also spread to the nearby lymph nodes. Determined not to let it define his happiness, we embarked on a remarkable journey of hope. Through exploring non-invasive alternative therapies, we have found strength, love, resilience, and innovative ways to maintain his quality of life. Together, we are rewriting Harley's story, one wagging tail at a time. Stay tuned for more updates on Harley's incredible journey! 🐾

I often hear people saying that they "can't afford" a healthier lifestyle. Living a healthier lifestyle does not have to cost more. If you plan and spend your money wisely, it can actually cost less. My advice is to focus on nailing down the foundations before even considering purchasing any expensive healing gadgets. Sure, some of them are helpful, but they’re not a prerequisite for vibrant health. In fact, I have found that the most impactful healing modalities are free. How can you incorporate some of these into your daily routine today?

If I leave you with one key take away from my teachings, it is to believe in your healing. Believe that by showing up every day, you are going to get there.

Trust the process, give yourself grace daily, and accept that your journey will be perfectly imperfect and that's okay. Adopt a compassionate approach, and do it out of a deep love for yourself and a deep appreciation for your body and how hard it works for you.

You got this, you can heal! And in the meantime LIVE. Live your life and do things you enjoy each and every day, regardless of your symptoms and despite your limiting beliefs. That is where true healing lies.

Primal Trust Academy & Community with Dr. Cathleen King says it best "The healing that you seek happens, as you do what makes you happy."

Humans have made great strides towards making food easy... easy to find, easy to buy, easy to transport, easy to store, and easy to prepare.

However, convenience has consequences. Food that is cheap and easy for the consumer, must be cheap and easy for the producer, and food that is cheap and easy for the producer suffers. Modern industrial farms deplete the soil, pollute the air and water, and burn through natural resources.

Conventionally raised food animals suffer from inhumane living conditions and unnatural diets that fatten them too quickly and make them sick and dependent on antibiotics to survive. Plants also suffer from industrial farming methods where they are planted too closely together in nutrient-depleted soil and are swimming in chemicals. In these conditions, nutrient uptake is limited, leaving them non-nutritive and toxic.

Loss of connection with our food, our communities, our families, and ourselves, is a compounding problem with devastating implications that we are already beginning to see. Loss of connection equates with lack of awareness, lack of awareness leads to apathy, and apathy is how we now have a food system that produces glyphosate laden vegetables, antibiotic filled meat and dairy, and a food system that does more damage to the Earth than it does good.

So what is the answer to the problem? First and foremost, the answer is education. The more people understand about nutrition, how food is produced, and how to discern between quality and marketing, the more they will be able to make informed choices. Beyond education, the answer lies in reestablishing connection—connection to our food, connection to each other, and connection to the Earth. From there, we can vote with our dollar and demand better food practices.

Having a daily morning routine isn't about adding more to your to-do list for the day. A solid morning routine will brighten your mood and give you more energy during the day. Finding a morning routine that works for you and sticking to it can reduce anxiety, boost your productivity levels, and make you feel better overall!

I have experimented a lot with my morning routine over the last few years and have found that these 4 things are my sweet spot. They don't take a whole lot of time or effort and the positive effects are very apparent throughout my day. I certainly notice a negative shift in my mood and an inabability to process stess or difficult emotions on days when I skip my morning routine. Which M-word will you be adding to your morning routine tomorrow?

Cumulative toxic burden is something that is impacting the health of many people, yet many are unaware of the harmful ingredients that they are ingesting, breathing, and putting on their bodies every single day. If we want to lower our risk for chronic disease, cancer, hormone imbalances, and so much more, we have to take steps to lower our toxin exposure.

Eating clean and drinking filtered water both matter, but the products we use are just as important. Some toxin exposures are unavoidable, but many are manageable. Even if we are just taking small steps, it can make a BIG difference in our health, as well as the health of our loved ones.

One of my goals at HealThru Holistic is to help you find safe, natural, organic, and non-toxic products that make sense for your family. Over the years, I have done tons of research and a lot of trial and error to find clean products that actually work. I’ve certainly weeded out some bad ones, but for the most part I’m impressed with all the excellent products available on the market today – it’s just a matter of knowing what to look for and where to find them!

It is my belief that stress is one of the most overlooked parts of healing. You can eat a perfect diet and take all the perfect supplements, but if you don't work on reducing your stressors, it's not likely that you will see big shifts in your health.

Stress means different things to different people, and what causes stress for one person may be of little concern to another. Learning the basics of how your body responds to stress and how your nervous system works can be helpful when navigating inevitable stressors in life.

Actively expanding nervous system capacity, rather than just removing or preventing stressors, is also very beneficial. I recommend the Primal Trust Academy & Community with Dr. Cathleen King if a lot of the items listed in this post apply to you.

I also go into a lot more detail about managing stress in my free Roadmap to Health Guide.
