Ah, the sixty million dollar question, isn't it? I read an interesting post from our friends at SCD Lifestyle (the ones who do the leaky gut prog here) and the start of it made me remember something I was going to write about. Let's begin with what they wrote: Lately, we've been getting a lot …
How Does Hypnotherapy Help Food Issues?
As you know, I used clinical hypnotherapy myself to help get from fewer than 20 foods back almost to normal now, yay :). I asked 'our Julie' as she has become known to tell us a bit about why it works so well and she wrote a blog post for us on it! Of course, …
What’s It Like To Feel Chronically Ill?

New ‘Virtual’ Therapy Team
In my recent quest for health, I found it incredibly difficult to know who to see for what, who was any good and what I needed them to do to help me! I swore if I ever get better - thank you Universe, Lordy or whoever! - I would try to make this process easier …
New Free Chopra Meditation Starts July

Chocolate, Wine, Nuts, Eggs Back In..Is This Really True?
 It's been 6 months since my last confession (or big post in the Healing Series anyway!).
