I’m a HUGE lover of Mind Body Green. I read it everyday and have hundreds of articles saved which I think are great. The following video is from their Revitalize conference and when I watched it I was so enthralled. It’s a great interview with Dr. Amy Myers founder of Austin’s UltraHealth. (Yes, I’ve already …
One of my favorite sessions I attended at #medx was an autoimmune presentation by Dr. Bonnie Feldman (@DrBonnie360). I’m pretty sure my neck hurt from shaking my head in agreement the entire time she was talking. In her presentation, @DrBonnie360 talked about how we need to add an integrative layer in our healthcare system and …

Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. WWWOOOOOWWWWWWWW Throughout my life I’ve been on and off different medications. There are a few times where I had to slowly ween off of a certain drug to make sure I appropriately detoxed it from my system. Usually it was a pretty painless experience and if I did have a side …

Today I’m starting a weekly post series called #Medx Mondays! Since I experienced so much during my trip to Palo Alto, I decided to chop up my take aways in, as @AuntieStress said, ‘bite size chunks’. So, drummmmmmm rollllllll please . . . My family is completely amazing. They’re so supportive and honestly would do …
As I’m settling back into the routine of my daily life, I feel overwhelmed with emotions when I reflect on the past 2 weeks. My Grandpa was diagnosed with lung cancer in March (we believe it started last summer) and decided he didn’t want any treatment. How can you argue with a 93-year-old man who …
[su_pullquote]”It’s not about always being in a good mood, but trying to just overcome, to prevail, to triumph, even when everything inside you is saying no.

At the beginning of August I boarded an emotional rollercoaster. I got in, buckled up and was told to keep my arms and legs in the vehicle at all times. The ride started off great with my excitement building towards #MedX. Up, up, up my cart was climbing and then I hit a surprising turn which …
Today my brother started his senior year of high school. Not only can I not believe he’s that old, but I can’t believe that I’m still dealing with my health issues. When he was starting 10th grade I was dealing with my 4th surgery, not healing well and talking with my doctor about scheduling my …
