Understanding Orthorexia By Mira Dessy When it comes to the concept of wellness and nutrition, it’s easy to celebrate healthy choices, and we should. Choosing nourishing foods and fueling your body with intention is a powerful act of self-care. But sometimes, what starts as a desire to eat well can slowly turn into something more rigid, more obsessive, and far less healthy....

Did you know your “healthy” restaurant meal might not be as wholesome as it seems?

That olive oil? Often not real olive oil.

That salad dressing? Sometimes it has more sugar than a candy bar.

The truth is when you eat out, you can’t always control what’s going into your food.

But when you cook at home, YOU call the shots. From the oils you use to the sweetness in your dressings. And your body will thank you.

Keep it simple with whole ingredients and clean swaps.

Wellness Wednesday: The Foundations of Health Are FREE ✨🌿

One of the biggest myths about holistic and functional medicine is that it’s “too expensive.”

And while it’s true that insurance companies don’t always support this kind of care, it’s equally true that the most powerful foundations of health cost nothing at all.

That’s why we’ve been sharing free, practical ways you can take charge of your well-being. Here’s a quick recap:

💨 Mind-body connection: prayer, meditation, yoga, breathwork.

🌞 Nature medicine: sunshine, fresh air, grounding barefoot.

🌱 Sprouting your own nutrient-dense food.

🏃‍♀️ Daily movement for strength + energy.

🥦 Eat massive amounts of veggies with healing herbs.

🚫 Avoid toxins in food, water, and home products.

👉 And this week’s tip: Surround yourself with life-giving, high-vibration elements.

Fill your space with plants, crystals, music that lifts your spirit, nature imagery, inspiring people, and objects that bring peace.

Every detail in your environment matters, choose what supports your healing on every level.

Because true wellness isn’t about buying the latest trend. It is about building habits and spaces that nourish your body, mind, and spirit every single day.

📞 Need guidance? Our team at The Woodlands Institute for Health & Wellness is here to support your journey. Call us at 281-298-6742 to learn more.

💚 Save this post to remind yourself that health foundations are free, and share with a friend who needs a little wellness inspiration today!

by Mila McManus, MD Hoo Knew? Oats have long been celebrated as a hearty, nourishing grain, and many might even call them a superfood. We often get questions about oats and oat products and these are some of the more frequent ones: Is oatmeal good for me? Oat milk must be healthy, right? Is oatmeal a good source of protein?...
