Get ready to Sing Spring! 

 

What a wonderful time for new beginnings! I am very excited to be joining the Healing Circles community here in Frederick. Through my chosen healing modality of using herbs and nutrition, I'd like to offer another possibility of viewing the human body in the wellness model of healing rather than the sickness model in which our society has been dwelling. If we nurture areas of the body that need extra care and enhance the strength of the body, sickness has no place to take up residence and withers away. One way to do this is to follow the seasons and cycles of nature and the way traditional cultures handled these fluctuations. Spring, a season full of promise and abundant energy, is a great place to start.                                                         Click here to read more . . .
Parents Corner - Breakfast Can Be Healthy Too!

 

It's long been known that breakfast is an important start for kids and parents alike.   Here are some ways to make it yummy and healthy for everyone!

 

If you've got 30 minutes to spare, make yourself a bowl of creamy oatmeal. Oats are high in fiber and contain vitamin E and some B vitamins, as well as iron, calcium and other minerals.   Oatmeal can be started the night before, just cook it halfway and refrigerate, the next morning reheat, add everything you want in it and once it's reheated, it's ready to go.
