Wellness Resolutions That Have Nothing to Do With Dieting
Happy New Year! Hopefully you have the day off and are able to stay home, relax, and recharge for the new year ahead. If you're familiar with my nutrition philosophy then you were NOT expecting some "new year new you" diet style post today.

The mom isn't exclaiming, "WOOOHOO!!" Quite the contrary; she's huddled in a corner sobbing and Googling everything she's doing wrong (hint: you're doing NOTHING wrong). Or when you're dropping a baby's nap, or moving your toddler to a … [Read more...]

Does the Four Sigmatic mushroom coffee taste like mushrooms? Are the ingredients safe for nursing? Do they sell individual packets for me to try? Lol #1 question I get about the mushroom coffee.
