"It’s a crazy system that is more about money than the health of humans. In other words, it becomes a product that is manipulated and changed"

Love this article about dairy and no moo dairy

Most of my family and friends no I do not consume much dairy (just a little cheese here and there) and the information in this article is one of the biggest reason whys. Milk is no longer milk. It is a concoction of different additives and fillers with portions of milk from 1000s's of different cows 🤢

In saying that a lot of non-dairy products are not much better. These to can be filled with so much junk! This is why it is so important to read labels so you know what you are putting in your body!

Dairy is inherently a great food for humans - it’s what we’ve done to this food that is the problem, as Cyndi O'Meara explains.

Have you heard of the 3 golden hours after birth and why they are so important?
This is a great video explaining what they are and why they are important.

If you are pregnant or planning to fall pregnant soon then do as much as you can to educate yourself so when it is time to birth your baby you feel educated, confident and empowered to have the birth you hope for.

"Chiropractic is equally as effective as medicines without any side-effects [when it comes to colic]"

As the Government of Victoria, Australia, winds up its review of chiropractic spinal manipulation of children under 12, the Journal of Contemporary Chiropractic (based in the United States) has published a narrative review of the European Medical Literature on an issue often debated within pediatric...

For children and teens, too much attention to devices and social media deprives them of opportunity to gain life experience and understanding of the world.

Love this article by Cyndi O'Meara!

Food isn't just fuel to the body, it is so much more than that. It provides us with essential nutrients that helps build and repair our body. 🥦🍎🍌🍊🍆

I especially love the stats on the amount of money the average Aussie spends each year on medications and what would happen if we spent that money on doing things for our health like planting seedlings! 🌿

People think being and eating healthy is hard.. it isn't. It just requires a change in mind set and some extra preparation but the outcome is by far worth it!

As real food can be more powerful than medicine, maybe it's time the government started taking a different approach when it comes to healthcare spending, says Cyndi O'Meara.

Many women are so disconnected from their cycle that they do not know what their normal is. Therefore they have no idea when things are a bit abnormal and what this means for them.

Dr Libby (one of my girl crushes 😍) does a great job at explaining women's hormones and what their cycle is trying to tell you.

PMS symptoms are common - but they're not normal.

Are you talking to your child or with your child?

"Safe, physiologically normal birth happens when the environment is safe and mom feels safe"

Giving birth in a safe place is mandatory for labor to progress normally. Because women are more sensitive to the possibility of threat, danger, or trouble when in labor, feeling safe is just as important as actually being safe.
