We all want more satisfying relationships. Don’t get me wrong, you are a wonderful partner! Yet, we all have automatic ways of being in a relationship. Being different means choosing to act differently. Like, when your spouse is sad, you quickly start “operation cheer up”. A different choice in this situation might be to sit quietly, and be with them and their pain. Another option might be to ask them what they need right now. We start small, with neutral situations, so you can practise and be successful. This is the way to grow your courage with more impactful, but uncomfortable choices.

Healthy Shortbread Cookies
Ingredients: 1 ½ cup almond flour (packed), 2 tbsp maple syrup, 3 tbsp melted coconut oil. Optional: ¼ tsp salt, ½ tsp vanilla extract, ½ tsp almond extract. Directions: Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). In a medium-size mixing bowl, add all the ingredients. Squeeze the dough with your hands to bring ingredients together. If too wet, you can add more almond flour. Scoop the dough with a measuring tablespoon and roll it into a ball. Use a fork to flatten each cookie. The thinner, the crispier they will be. Bake for 10-12 minutes until slightly golden and slightly hard on top.
What is Holistic Dentistry?
In holistic dentistry, the mouth is viewed as an integral part of the digestive tract, which is crucial to overall health. A holistic dentistry practitioner takes time to educate patients on key nutrients for systemic and emotional health, the importance of restful oxygenated sleep and proper digestion, and the dangers of infected teeth and gum inflammation. Specialized technology is used in holistic dentistry, such as PRF, ozone, lasers and CBCT imaging, to properly diagnose and manage disease. In addition, only biocompatible materials are used, as opposed to ‘tolerable’ ones such as BPA-free composites, zirconia, and no amalgam silver fillings.

Discover Your Inner Warrior
Kambo is a traditional medicine and healing ritual that can assist in relieving the symptoms of depression, anxiety, chronic pain, trauma, ADHD, addictions, fatigue, autoimmune disorders, and much more. The effects of kambo medicine take hold and the person receiving it goes through a process of deep healing on three levels – the body, mind, and spirit. Chris Jordan is an advanced practitioner who trained in Mexico and the Amazon jungle in Peru. As a practitioner, he honours the traditional ways of the Matsés tribe, which discovered kambo medicine thousands of years ago in South America.
