I (Jen) have decided there should be some sort of trade-in program for bodies. Think about it. When our car gets old and starts breaking down, eventually we trade it in for a new one. When our clothes wear out, we replace them. When the vacuum finally dies or the washing machine gives up, we […]
I (Jen) have had headaches occasionally throughout my life but as an adult, I was never really a “headache person.” I might get a migraine once or twice a year, and while they certainly weren’t fun, they happened rarely enough that I didn’t think much about them. Then I hit my 40s. I started getting […]
Every August, something shifts. The kids are back in school; the house gets a little quieter, and for the first time in months, you have a chance to look around. And suddenly, you notice all the things that have been patiently waiting for your attention. The garage is overflowing. Your closets need to be cleaned […]
When most women think about balancing their hormones, they focus on food—and that’s a wonderful place to start. But there’s another piece of the puzzle that often gets overlooked. I (Jen) overlooked it for a long time. I finally asked myself, “What am I putting on my body every single day?” Our Largest Organ Our […]
If you’ve listened to our podcast or taken one of our classes, you’ve probably heard us say that healing isn’t just about what you eat. Food matters. Sleep matters. Movement matters. But one of the six basics we teach is something that often surprises people: your mindset matters. Your mindset matters The way you think […]
For many families, back-to-school season brings a mix of emotions. For Jennah and I (Jen) it’s a little bit bitter-sweet because we’ve both finished homeschooling as our children have become adults. Jennah has had a few years to get used to this idea, but for me, this is my first back to school season without […]
A few years ago, I (Jen) was introduced to Qigong, and while it looked interesting, I didn’t pay too much attention. But, the more I’ve learned about Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), the more I’ve realized that the most powerful forms of healing are the ones that help our bodies finally feel safe enough to heal. […]
Have you ever noticed that people naturally hum when they’re relaxed? Maybe it’s while they’re cooking dinner, rocking a baby, folding laundry, or working in the garden. We don’t usually think much about it, but humming isn’t just something we do when we’re in a good mood. It may actually be one of the ways […]
I (Jen) LOVE watermelon! So, I love that it shows up everywhere during the hottest months of the year. From backyard barbecues and family reunions to picnics and pool parties, it truly has become a symbol of summer. But this beloved fruit is much more than a sweet seasonal treat. Both Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) […]
A few years ago, if someone had suggested that my thoughts impact my health, I (Jen) would have rolled my eyes. Not because I didn’t believe the mind was important, but because when you’re dealing with physical symptoms—fatigue, pain, hormone imbalances, inflammation, poor sleep, digestive issues, or chronic stress—the problem feels very physical. It feels […]
