Had a great time #paddleboarding at Lake Las Vegas.
SUP can provide a good overall workout making use of our balance and strength in order to remain upright and propel ourselves in the water.
Paddling utilizes the arms, back, and shoulders to propel the paddleboard in the water. The core back and abdominal muscles are constantly at work to maintain your balance.
Stand up paddle boarding doesn’t just strengthen the body, it feeds the mind and soul and gives us time in nature.
This was our first time doing SUP on a lake. We’ve done ocean paddle boarding a few times which can be more of a challenge.
Have you done SUP?

Ren is a trained and certified professional health coach who can help you reach your best health and well-being. She can help you develop a personal wellness plan and inspire and challenge you to go beyond what you would do alone.

Dr. Scott on Mindfulness
As a physician, we are subject to many stressors: over-work, regulations, EMR and coding requirements, on-call issues and often a lack of self care.
By practicing mindful medicine, I am able to better serve our patients as well as mitigate burnout symptoms myself.
Mindful medicine practices may include: Meditation, Yoga, Tai Chi, Qigong, nutrition, detox and more.
What is your favorite mindfulness practice?

Dr. Scott Jacobson MD Primary Care Procedures
Did you know that Dr. Scott Jacobson does Skin Tag Removal?
If you have unusual growths on your skin that you may be concerned about Dr. Scott can help by assessing, removing or referring to a specialist.
Skin tags are a common growth that occurs on various parts of the body. You might have one or more of these located on these areas of your body:
• Armpits
• Neck
• Eyelids
• Under the breasts
• In the folds of the groin
These are the areas of the body where the skin tends to rub against something such as another body part or fabric.
Skin tags can become irritated from constant rubbing or exposure to moisture. To avoid discomfort from a skin tag, you might place an adhesive bandage over it or consider getting it removed.
As with all procedures that can be preformed in our office this is included to all of our Wishing Wellness clients.

Wishing Wellness Grow Your Own Fungi
Fungiculture is a fun 'grow your own food' hobby that we've been experimenting with.
Research suggests that Lions Mane may offer a range of health benefits, including reducing mild symptoms of anxiety and depression. It also has strong anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immune-boosting properties
Reishi also known as ingzhi has been used medicinally for hundreds of years to fight infections, boost the immune system, reduce stress, improve sleep and more recently in the treatment of pulmonary diseases and cancer.
Oyster mushrooms have been cultivated for less than 100 years we are just beginning to discover the many potential benefits that they have to offer. Research indicates they provide antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

A healthy diet is important for gut health.
Things like eating a colorful diet of natural fruits and vegetables, getting enough fiber and eating fermented foods are beneficial to gut health.
Having a healthy gut is important in feeling good, having a strong immune system, consistent energy and regular bowel movements.
Here we made a batch of pickles which are good for #guthealth

Functional Medicine Wishing Wellness
Dr. Scott Jacobson MD is a Family Doctor who specializes in Functional Medicine and Ren Jacobson is a Certified Functional Medicine Health Coach. Together we offer a unique program to help clients with chronic illness that a traditional Western approach alone may not be able to identify the root cause.
Our society is experiencing a sharp increase in the number of people who suffer from complex, chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, mental illness, and autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis.
The typical Western approach to medicine, practiced by most physicians, is oriented toward acute care, the diagnosis and treatment of trauma or illness that is usually of short duration and in need of urgent care, for example a broken bone or a migraine. Physicians apply specific, prescribed treatments such as drugs or surgery that aim to treat the immediate problem or symptom.
What the acute-care approach to medicine lacks is the proper methodology and tools for preventing and treating complex, chronic disease.
In most cases Western medicine does not take into account the unique genetic makeup of each individual or factors such as environmental exposures to toxins and the aspects of today’s lifestyle that have a direct influence on the rise in chronic disease in modern Western society.
Most physicians are not adequately trained to assess the underlying causes of complex, chronic disease and to apply strategies such as nutrition, diet, and exercise to both treat and prevent these illnesses in their patients.
We at Wishing Wellness Medical are here to help you navigate your health journey and work together to achieve your optimum health.

Wishing Wellness on Walking
Walking is the most popular type of exercise in adults. It is free, does not require special training, and can be done almost anywhere. Even short, but regular, walks have substantial health benefits.
Cardio or aerobic exercise push your muscles, heart and lungs to work hard.
Studies have shown that regular cardio exercise may improve your mood, lower stress, give you more energy and sharpen your mental focus and memory. It can also help you keep off extra weight, improve your cholesterol, build stronger bones and muscles, and lower your risk of diabetes, stroke and certain cancers. It can also help you sleep better.
Reasons why walking is a great way to exercise:
* All you need is a good pair of shoes.
* You can do it anytime, anywhere.
* It's low impact and gentle on your body.
* Walking in nature is especially good for your mental health. Studies show it boosts your mood and creativity and can even be a form of meditation.

Dr. Scott's Dairy Free Creamy Cilantro Sauce
This tastes similar to sauce we’ve had at Venezuelan restaurants, often served over arepas or plantains.
We add this to everything: as a salad dressing, over brown rice or quinoa, with protein, on a sandwich, etc.
Here is Dr. Scott’s dairy free Creamy Cilantro Sauce:
Ingredients
1 can full fat coconut milk
2 cloves of garlic (or more to taste)
1 bunch cilantro
1/2 tsp of salt
Blend all ingredients until smooth (blender or food processor).
Store in fridge for up to 2 weeks
Wishing Wellness Gut Health Kombucha
Kombucha starts out as a sugary tea, which is then fermented with the help of the SCOBY-symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast- which we showed how we made at home in our previous video.
The scoby bacteria and yeast eat most of the sugar in the tea, transforming the tea into a refreshingly fizzy, slightly sour fermented beverage that is relatively low in calories and sugar and food for #guthealth
Here we are on the final stage of bottling the buch.
To learn more about the process we used and the recipes check out our Facebook page.

As some of you might know we've been working on writing a health, wellness #FunctionalMedicine book.
While working full time seeing clients, family, pets, home, self care, exercise, cooking etc. it has been a challenge to carve out time to work on writing.

Dr. Scott and Ren Stress Relief Baths
#Epsom salts (magnesium sulfate or magnesium sulphate) baths are purported to soothe and hasten recovery from muscle pain, soreness or injury and help to pull toxins from the body while they cleanse the skin and unclog pores.
We enjoy using baths as a time to unwind and doing it together, side by side, in #TopangaCanyon was beautiful
