Do you suffer from allergies? Spring is the time many people associate with their seasonal ritual of sneezing and sniffling.
It can be caused by snow mould but the most common culprit is pollen. You inhale an allergen or it contacts your skin or eyes, then the immune system impolitely goes into overdrive, making you miserable.
One day I was looking for an easy and nourishing recipe that would not keep me tied to the stove. Yet still be tasty and comforting on a brisk winter day.
We seem to collect cookbooks at our house. Some great, others a mixed bag of promises unfulfilled. Its a challenge sometimes to find that special recipe that is both easy and healthy.
It is getting colder out and winter has finally arrived. More people are getting sick around us and the big question is, what can you do to stay healthy?
The simple but challenging answer is get more sleep. It would seem sleeping more would be easier at this time of year when it gets dark so early and the nights get longer. Alas, I notice that for a lot of my patients, trying to get more sleep is a real chronic problem.
We can all grow and change over time, perhaps it’s becoming more comfortable in our own skin, having more contentment and fun in life or discovering routines and healthy habits in exercise, sleep, or eating. There are a lot of things we can do for ourselves to feel the best we can.
