Finding Community by Eating Locally

Bonnie | October 30, 2009

Earlier this week, I wrote about how having solid communities of friends can be helpful in maintaining good health. Eating locally can add to your community, not just be adding money to the local economy but by adding friends. When I go to the local grocer, I may recognize a checker. Maybe a box boy [...]

Overlooked Symptoms

Bonnie | October 28, 2009

On the one hand it seems that as a culture we worry about certain types of illnesses. On the other, we overlook certain symptoms. We don’t pay attention to the symptom of not being able to sleep. It’s annoying, sure, but we don’t worry about it until we can’t function. We don’t worry when our [...]

Community and Health

Bonnie | October 26, 2009

Who is in your community? Most of us have several communities that are supportive. We might have people at work. We have neighbors. There are people at church. Our family connections.

What Do You Need to Say?

Bonnie | October 23, 2009

I love posts like this one about this healer. The story is that the healer heals by listening to what goes unsaid. We let a lot of things go unsaid. The speaking of these things may not heal us of everything but there is a sense of freedom and a peaceful contentment that comes from [...]

Is a Lack of Sickness Health?

Is Sickness Wrong or Part of Growing

Bonnie | October 15, 2009

I am always pondering the question why do we think sickness is wrong. We think it’s wrong because it’s bad and icky and nasty. As a result people do a lot of things to try and avoid it. Sometimes, through no fault of our own, sickness happens. I was reading in my Weston A Price [...]

My Liver, the Couch Potato

Mark O’Donnell, who is a professional health and fitness coach has a wonderful article over at the Fitness Spotlight called Speed Up Your Metabolism-Fatty Liver Disease. The article is important because it shows the importance of the liver in weight loss. Additionally, even if you aren’t over weight but don’t feel your best, there’s a [...]

Energetic Importance of Happy Food

Bonnie | October 9, 2009

It’s hard to know what is good for you. Acupuncture theory discusses many different energies that the body needs. We can balance many of these energies by making proper food choices. Good food is different for each person. However, all good food is typically no more processed than you would process in your home. The [...]
