Health Benefits of Walking Outdoors

Walking Outside

*Exposes you to nature

*Can boost Vitamin D

*Relaxes the mind

*Boosts #hearthealth

*Enhances creativity

* Lowers blood sugar

* Reduces stress eating

#Nature has healing power. When you feel your #stress level rise, make time to go outside and walk.

Start slowly, especially if you haven't exercised in a while. You can even start with 10 minutes and gradually work your way up to a longer walk or hike.

Natural Hot Springs

Had a great day trip to Tecopa natural hot springs, a therapeutic geothermal mineral-rich hot springs. 

The mud/clay bath is considered to have healing properties and we felt it was relaxing and made our skin feel softer. 

Just over an hour drive from Las Vegas- definitely worth the trip! 

We brought our own lunch as there are not many options in the area.

Conference Speaker Engagement

Had a great time speaking and participating at IPAC this week at UNLV.

It is such an amazing time to be part of the medical profession and on the forefront of #cannabis and #psilocybin becoming accepted, researched and mainstream natural medicines.

Not only did I learn a lot from many other presenters but it was great to share my knowledge and research on #longhaulcovid through a #functionalmedicine approach.

Cashew Cream Sauce

This creamy (Alfredo like) sauce is versatile and can be used on pasta, as a white sauce on pizza and to added extra flavor to veggies. We like it on anything with mushrooms. It keeps well in the fridge for about a week.

Cashew Cream Sauce

1 1/2 cups cashews

1 cup water

1tsp garlic

1/2 tsp salt

1/8 cup Nutritional yeast

Mix in a blender- we use a Vitamix. Ready to serve.

We keep it in a glass container in the fridge for up to a week.

Wishing Wellness Hiking For Health

Hiking is a great way to spend time in nature and get exercise.

Hiking is good for our cardiovascular health and it helps build stabilizing muscles in the legs and core that improve balance.

There is a wealth of research supporting the notion that connecting with nature improves mental health and wellbeing. The Japanese practice of forest bathing is a practice first studied in the 1980’s which involves taking a walk or hike in the woods as a way to reconnect with nature and disconnect from the modern world.

2 tsp Vanilla Extract

2 tbsp Honey (We use local)

Eat The Rainbow

You may have heard us talk about the importance of ‘eating the rainbow’.

Fruits and vegetables fall into different color categories: red, purple/blue, green, white/brown and yellow/orange and eating a variety of colors is a good measure of whole nutrition.

Green foods like spinach, collard greens, mustard greens, turnip greens, yellow corn, green peas, avocado, honeydew melon contain carotenoids, lutein, and zeaxanthin, which are believed to reduce the macular degeneration that comes with aging.

Green foods like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, bok choy, kale contain the chemicals sulforaphane and isocyanate which help ward off cancer by inhibiting carcinogens.

Each color carries its own set of unique disease fighting substances and eating a variety of colors is a great way to guarantee your body is getting a variety of minerals and nutrients it needs.

Wishing Wellness Functional Nutrition

Functional nutrition is the practice of considering every aspect of one's health, diet, and overall lifestyle when giving nutrition recommendations.

In this way, functional medicine follows a systems approach to health that takes into consideration how interrelated every part of the body is.

Eating healthy food is important and eating healthy food that nourishes YOUR unique body is part of what we help our clients achieve through a Functional Medicine approach.

Functional medicine empowers patients to act to help themselves. By becoming part of the solution and modifying behaviors such as food choices, exercise time and sleep habits our clients learn how to take better care of themselves and make lasting lifestyle changes.

Wishing Wellness Garden

Being in #nature is good for your health!⁠
⁠
Nature is fundamental to our survival. It provides vital resources to support us, such as food, water and air. ⁠
⁠
Studies suggest that the benefits of a nature are good for our physical and mental health.⁠
⁠
Working in the garden can increase serotonin levels in the brain, causing you to be happier throughout the day. Gardening builds strength, helps maintain a healthy weight and may promote sleep. ⁠
⁠
Growing your own food is also a way to eat healthy and decide what fertilizers and pesticides come in contact with your food.⁠
⁠
We compost our food waste and our favorite organic pesticide is Neem oil. ⁠

Wishing Wellness Yoga

Being in habit of getting on the mat to practice yoga

Surya Namaskar, sun salutation A & B is a practice in yoga as exercise incorporating a flow sequence of asanas.

Surya Namaskar is a powerful technique to make you more mindful. With regular practise, it may increase awareness forming a deeper connection between the body, breath and consciousness.

Stretching and flexibility are important to practice daily because as we age, we lose flexibility.

Wishing Wellness Make Your Own Cranberry Juice

Kompot, not to be confused with compote which is a stewed fruit dessert, is a typical Eastern European drink made using fresh or dried fruits.

It is really easy to make, you can control the sweetness and enjoy it hot or cold. This is a great alternative to store bought juice which is typically not healthy because of it’s added sugar. Making your own cranberry drink is also a good home remedy for UTI's.

Here is our sugar free version made with cranberries and oranges.

Ren’s Cranberry Kompot

2 cups of fresh cranberries, rinsed and picked over
2 oranges sliced (with peel left on if organic)
1 cinnamon stick
2 star anise
8 cardamon pods lightly crushed
Optional lemon sliced

Add to stock pot and fill almost to the top with water, bring to a boil then simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Let cool then strain. While it’s still warm add honey to taste.
We drink this cold, warm and hot.

As an added bonus your kitchen will be filled with fresh aromatic goodness.
Feel free to substitute with frozen fruit.
