Welcome to my blog!

I'm an acupuncturist, teacher, fertility specialist, patient centered advocate, mom, activist and more! This blog is a place for me to write down the things on my mind, the things I discuss over and over, and the things I find helpful, interesting, and inspiring all in the hope that someone else out there, maybe YOU, will find some of these things to be helpful, interesting and inspiring too. I love learning, I love sharing, and I am passionate about helping others lead more balanced, fertile, and healthy lives - while trying to do the same myself. So here goes... The Blogging Life...

New Mini-Retreats for ALL WOMEN!

I'm thrilled to announce the newest, exciting development in the Life Healing Life world.  For the last 14 months I've been holding once a month fertility retreats on topics such as mindfulness, transformation, gratitude, the unknown, self compassion and more.  And I LOVE these retreats and the women who have showed up to do amazing work!

But I've heard from many of you out there who are feeling left out.  Those who are not in the throws of their fertility journey, whether you are on the flip side, are pregnant or expecting but still crave support, have never struggled with fertility challenges, don't identify with the idea of "infertility," feel intimidated by the fertility specific groups, or haven't even thought of becoming mothers.  You want these topics too!

So, starting the evening of Thursday, April 18th from 6:30-9pm (and one thursday each month to come) I am hosting retreats that will be open to any and all women. Not only does this mean anyone can come (fertility or not) it means you can easily invite a friend!

Each retreat will feature a holistic topic/activity and discussion as well as community style group acupuncture treatments.  Spaces are limited, so sign up early.

April's topic will be Gratitude!

We will explore the power of gratitude from personal, holistic and scientific perspectives and create our own gratitude bead necklaces.* We will also honor that, while gratitude is healthy and wonderful, it does not take away the difficulties of life, rather, it balances them out. 

*if you would like to use beads of your own choosing please feel free to bring them along (you should have around 100 beads with one that is unique and stands out from the rest) otherwise basic beads and supplies will be provided!
