Content Preface for all Posts

*I am not a Dr., and cannot prescribe nor diagnose. However, I can suggest ways to keep yourself healthy from my personal experience and research.
For more about holistic living and selfcare, and to find a practicioner to visit, I would strongly suggest finding some wellness professionals to follow such as holistic Doctors and nutrition coaches for advice.“Holistic” practitioners go beyond the disease, injury or ailment, focus on the person as a “whole” – mind, body, and soul.
