I found this art several years ago. I don’t know where. Probably some craft or art show. I loved it when I saw it and I still do. Most of you probably don’t know that I really am from “Up North”. Two and a half hours north of Minnesota for all of the Americans. For the Canadians, it [...]
I get asked this question a lot. Is a Vegan diet a good diet for healing from Hashimoto’s? First, let’s talk about what a vegan diet can be good for. If you are eating a Vegan diet you are removing any animal food products, eggs, and dairy from your diet. Some people even remove honey from [...]
How often do you think of what you need for self-care as a woman with Hashimoto’s? I think it is time to start thinking about that. I mean, 2020 has been a little bitch. We have been so caught up in the world, Covid, the politics and it has done us no favors. We haven’t had our [...]
Apologies for missing last week. First time in over 3 years, I think. That is a lot of blogs. I can’t actually believe I have that much to say. I was resting and based on my very obvious type A personality it was not easy for me. I am having to learn it’s ok to rest. I’m telling you my story [...]

“How we spend our days, is of course, how we spend our lives.”- Annie Dillard. Let’s talk about mindset. And it particular, a healthy mindset. The kind we think we have one day, and then some days it seems to slip away from us. Maybe it comes back in summer, when we break out the denim shorts [...]
It’s that time. We are cooking it up again today. I can’t wait to share the latest recipe choice with all of you. Why am I doing this? Well, I’m mildly crazy. And I’m on a mission to change the way women approach their health. I don’t want you to be me. Not even a [...]
It’s been 5 weeks of Shelter-in-Place for me. I pulled myself in earlier than ordered because I wasn’t really sure if everything the media was saying was true. I was a little concerned about how my body would respond to the virus. And I’ve talked before about how much I’ve actually [...]
