    Apr 10 2024

    If you were to ask me what’s the one thing that has most dramatically changed in my life recently, it wouldn’t be the birth of a new baby, it would be how I feel after a new baby now that I am adequately hydrated! ⁣ ⁣ I recently ended up in the Emergency Room with symptoms of dehydration, a place I never thought I’d be.

MetaPWR Recharge is a product that can be a game changer in helping you feel better.⁣ In this episode: ⁣ ⁣ - I share my story⁣ ⁣ - Introduce the “Quench” protocol for hydration and how that can shift chronic disease in days/weeks,⁣ ⁣ - Chat about the science and spirit of how water impacts our cells⁣ ⁣ - Reveal how dehydration contributes to those pesky symptoms you can’t get rid of (weight gain, fatigue, bloating, brain fog, constipation anyone?), ⁣ ⁣ - Explain what makes MetaPWR Recharge so different (and effective!) than any other electrolyte product on the market. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ Water is life, and I can’t wait to share how dramatically different you can feel by changing your relationship with this underappreciated gift from the Earth. ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ GET RECHARGE:⁣ ⁣ 🇨🇦Live in Canada?

  • Episode 20: How to use essential oils to process vulnerable moments
    Aug 8 2023

    Let's dive into the transformative power of essential oils on an emotional level, particularly during our most vulnerable moments. In this episode, I open up about a personal experience that rocked my confidence, plunged me into a whirlpool of shame, and significantly impacted my energy. However, this episode isn't just about sharing a story – it's about guiding you through the healing journey. Instead of merely listing out which oils I used, I take you step by step through my process. The aim is to provide you with an immersive experience that demonstrates what happens when we learn to tune into our innermost feelings and harness the unparalleled strength of nature to navigate through such moments. Hint... it's profound, but super easy! By the end of our journey, you'll gain an understanding of not only which essential oils can assist during such times, but also how to truly connect with their essence. This episode is a testament to the concept that, with nature as our ally, we can turn our vulnerable moments into powerful, transformative experiences.

  • Episode 17: Natural Sun care with the doTerra Sun Line
    Jun 14 2023

    Just in time for the summer solstice, we are back with Season 2 of the Science Meets Spirit Podcast, where we will take a deep dive into doTERRA's brand-new suncare line. Specifically, we will chat about:

    • The sun's central role in human history and culture, and its symbolism of life, consciousness, and warmth.
    • The essential connection between humans and the sun, and the need to reestablish this in our modern lives.
    • The significance of Vitamin D for our immune system, bone health, and mood.
    • The importance of balancing our nourishing relationship with the sun with the need to protect against overexposure and potential skin damage.
    • The troubling concerns about chemical sunscreens, such as the potential health risks of ingredients like oxybenzone and avobenzone.
    • The limitations of traditional natural sunscreens, like the white cast they leave on the skin and their difficult application.
    • The introduction of dōTERRA's revolutionary sunscreen line, which utilizes non-nano zinc oxide and includes lotion, stick, spray, and a daily face moisturizer.
    • An understanding of the SPF rating system and why reapplication and adequate use are more important than a very high SPF number.
    • The additional benefits of Certified Pure Tested Grade® essential oils in dōTERRA's sunscreen products, such as Red Mandarin, Lemongrass, and Frankincense.
    • How dōTERRA's sunscreens manage to provide substantial sun protection without leaving a white cast, while nourishing your skin with restorative ingredients.
    • The benefits of dōTERRA's After Sun Restorative Body Spray, a product designed to soothe and hydrate your skin after sun exposure.

    Join us for this comprehensive guide to understanding our relationship with the sun, the complexities of sun protection, and the innovative solutions that dōTERRA's sunscreen line offers. It's not just about protection; it's about achieving a mindful and balanced bond with the life-giving force of the sun.
