Last month I wrote about my quest to pay more attention to my own health here. This is the ultimate in baring myself to my readers, is it not? A Health Educator revealing that she’s noticed a decline in her habits.

While I’ve shared a few personal anecdotes about various experiments, I’ve never before embarked upon a specific plan and shared it with my blog readers on a regular basis. That’s about to change.

I’m excited to get to the final post in this series because it deals with what I found to be the most interesting aspect of the article: how some farmers have moved to using essential oils for the health of their animals instead of antibiotics.

Once upon a time, people woke with the sun. They got up, did their work (outdoors) all day, then came in before the sunset, hung out with the family, and went to bed when it got dark (or lit a candle if they needed to see at night).

Last month I wrote about essential oils and their potential to assist people with health issues. This month I want to focus on another aspect of the original article that led me to essential oils.

I had a great conversation with some ladies in a book club I belong to about the concept of “letting go” recently. We are all experiencing some life transitions and challenges right now.

An article in The Atlantic covering essential oils as new antibiotics is so chock-full of good health-related tidbits that I've decided to just do several bite-sized blog posts about it over the course of time.

One of the great trends in food right now is a shift back to fermentation. Right now these foods appear to be the latest craze, but the reality is that the concept of fermentation itself is not really new at all.

Over the course of the past several months, my mother has been in and out of the hospital. I’ve never really spent much time in hospitals, so I suppose it's no surprise that I am just now noticing the state of the food that is there and available.

Intermittent fasting: it’s the complete opposite of what I learned while completing my health coaching certification, but I’m not afraid to question what I’ve been told from time to time.
