Meghan’s Healthy Living Gift Guide

As you know, I rarely share or promote companies unless I truly love them and since I am not much of a shopper, it’s rare that I discover amazing stuff before anyone else. That being said, I might have a few special trinkets up my sleeve that you may not be familiar with or have...

Natural Bedding and Linens Guide for Truly Sweet Dreams

We spend one-third of our lives sleeping. You know what this means, right? This means we spend more time between the sheets and laying on our mattress than we do in any single pair of jeans, sweats, sneakers, hoodies, or party dresses. More than we spend lying on the couch, at work or driving in...

Showing Up: This Is Your Time

I can’t recall when it was that I last sat down to write a post of this nature but every week can feel like a lifetime these days. After a period of feeling rather exhausted, new work, a new desire to serve is inviting me to show up in a new way. It has me...

Is Plant-Based Milk Healthy: Oatly, NotMilk, Ripple and More

Several weeks ago, I received a text from a friend asking me if I’d heard of a product called ‘NotMilk’ – and what I thought about it. I’m always happy to share my opinion on packaged foods and as many of you know, I’m not shy about it! And so, I thought it was time...

Why Are We Afraid To Create?

My son, now four years old, loves drawing people with really long necks, long oval eyes, a dot for a nose, a jagged line for a mouth and sometimes there’s a torso, sometimes the arms and legs come straight from the neck. He puts marker to paper, or chalk to sidewalk and just goes for...

Top 17 Healthy Halloween Treats

Like so many other holidays, Halloween is one of those times when it’s easy to throw caution to the wind and stuff our faces with gobs of sugar. On the one hand, who doesn’t love an excuse to dress up like a cat and play with pumpkins? On the other hand, chowing down on ultra-processed, sugar-packed candy...

Vegan Celery Root Apple Soup

Some call it celeriac, I call it celery root (because I’m not that fancy), and no joke this ugly, gnarly root is one of my absolute favourite fall vegetables. Now it’s been said that celery will always be the last vegetable standing on a veggie platter, and it may be true, but please don’t let...

Healthy Thanksgiving Recipes and Inspiration

It’s a long weekend coming up here in Canada, and a time for people to gather and celebrate the autumn harvest season. There’s nothing more healthful than sitting down with friends and family for a home-cooked meal. Eating should be pleasurable, and I always want to feel good after I eat, too. If you’re the...

My 9 Best Strategies To Help You Unwind

Do you ever feel kind of tight and contracted, like the littlest thing can cause you to spring up (or lash out) for no real reason at all? Or that you are overreacting to things that should be no big deal, and even as you’re reacting, you know you’re being dramatic about it? Why am...

Nap Time Self-Care: Tips for Tired Moms

I laugh at the days when I thought I was busy. I used to write about self-care in the chaos, would Instagram my hour-long sauna/home spa routine and preached the magic of skin brushing. While I continue to stand behind these recommendations, I don’t have the time for a lot of what I used to do....
