Did you know being in nature helps with anxiety?! Whenever patients come to me with symptoms of anxiety, I always suggest a meditation nature walk. The purpose of this walk is to get out of your head and calm the mind during times of stress. During this walk, focus on your surroundings. Take in the trees, birds, landscape and describe what you’re seeing to yourself. I also suggest repeating what you’re grateful for during this time as well! ... Next time you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed or stressed - try this meditation walk & let me know how you feel after!! #nature #beininature #anxiety #meditation #meditationwalk #naturewalk #calmthemind #racingthoughts #stress #stressmanagement #stressedout #focusonthegood #gratitute #begrateful #groundyourself #grounded #getgrounded #calm #easeanxiety #treatanxiety #anxietytreatment See more

Why I Created The Couples Fertility Appointment WHY? As women, we tend to carry the responsibility of fertility, when the male is HALF the equation! ... Preconception health care should begin at least 3 months prior to conception It is an amazing experience that should bring couples closer together, when it tends to do the opposite. WHO? Are you and your partner talking about starting a family soon? This appointment is for you! Have you and your partner been trying for some time with no success? This appointment is for you! Are you and your partner wanting to optimize your overall health to set yourself up for success down the road? This appointment is for you! Are you or your partner overwhelmed & don’t know where to start? This appointment is for you! Your first couples fertility visit with me involves an in-depth look at both you & your partners current and past health history & fertility goals will be discussed. I meet you wherever you are in your fertility journey, if you are just beginning your journey or are currently seeking care through a fertility clinic, I am here to support you along the way. At the end of this visit, each couple will have an initial treatment plan which will include a detailed plan consisting of dietary and lifestyle changes, individualized supplementation and testing if needed. NEXT STEPS We will meet again a few weeks later to go over any questions that may have come up, go over individualized test results in detail and adjust the treatment plan if needed. NOT SURE YET? I offer 15 minute complementary discovery calls for couples to ask any questions prior to booking an initial appointment and to make sure we are a good fit! HOW DO WE BOOK?

Do you eat GREENS for breakfast?! I always try to incorporate vegetables into my first meal of the day! ... Here are a few easy ways to add GREENS into each meal: Add a few handfuls of spinach or kale to your smoothies in the morning! Add cut up zucchini or cauliflower to smoothies! (Tip: cut them up & freeze them so they’re easier to add in a hurry) Purchase a CLEAN greens powder to up your nutrition content. (I like @genuinehealth @canprev !) Add a bed of greens to literally ANY meal (pasta, stir fry, quinoa salads, chicken, fish etc) Make a quick side salad with lettuce and any veggies you have in the fridge What’s your favourite way to sneak in greens during the day?!

Let’s Chat: SCREEN TIME AT NIGHT We are using our screens for EVERYTHING these days. Think of how often you stare at your computer screen during all those zoom calls, your phone flipping though instagram, FaceTime chatting with your friends & family and we can’t forget Netflix! All of these screens have blue light. Blue light actually BLOCKS our melatonin from producing. This reduces our ability to feel tired at bed time and interrupts our sleep, so we wake up... more often during the night! As a Naturopathic Doctor, I can help! Naturopath’s can determine the root cause by exploring functional testing to determine melatonin and cortisol levels and their metabolites (how your body is breaking down these hormones)! Once we have determined the root cause, I will provide a detailed treatment plan in order to improve sleep quality and achieve your individual health goals! BONUS - A few tips you can try TODAY to improve your sleep: 1 Invest in blue light blocking glasses 2 Avoid screen time 2-3 hours before bed (try taking a bath or reading a book instead!) 3 Avoid consuming stimulants 2-3 hours before bed (coffee, sugar, alcohol) Having issues sleeping at night?Contact me today to book a FREE 15 minute discovery call! #sleep #troublesleeping #sleepissues #tired #fatigue #lowenergy #testdontguess #functionaltesting #hormonetesting #cortisoltesting #melatonin #bluelight #sleephygiene #bluelightblockers #screentime #naturopath #rootcause #naturopathicdoctor #energy #increasedenergy #toronto #oakville #niagara #stcatharines #telehealth #virtualnaturopath #oakvillenaturopath #niagaranaturopath #stcatharinesnaturopath #torontonaturopath See more

How to elevate your avocado toast! STEP 1: Swap white or whole wheat bread with a sprouted grain or high fiber/high protein bread. I like @silverhillsbakery , @queenstreetbakery or Ezekiel bread. These options are easier on the digestive system and have more overall nutrition content! STEP 2: Increase the protein & omega 3 content by sprinkling with hemp hearts, an amazing plant based protein! ... STEP 3: ENJOY!! You have just increased your nutrition exponentially by adding plant based protein, fibre content, sprouted grains & of course healthy fats! #avocadotoast #avotoast #elevatednutrition #elevatedmeal #easynutrition #easyrecipe #simplerecipe #foodblogger #healthylifestyle #naturopathapproved #perfectmeal #healthy #health #wellness #wellnessexpert #healthyfats #plantbasedprotein #plantbased #highfibre #protein #oakvillenaturopath #virtualnaturopath See more
