During this holiday season, Heidi and I hope you are enjoying time with family and good friends. We also hope you are surviving those hormone altering temptations – sugar, excessive carb intake, staying up all night, stress and more stress. Maybe some of you are using some of Heidi’s great tips that she posted last […]
Body of Eve Nominated for Best Health Blog
It’s true! One of readers nominated us for 2014 Best Health Blog sponsored by Healthline. It’s been less than a year since we launched the blog, so we are honored to be considered this year. And, we’d love it if you could take the time to give us a few votes here and there. Below […]
Depression and Menopause – Part 3
This week is my third and final installation (for a while) about menopause and depression. If you missed the first one click here. It’s almost Christmas and I think time to move on to a little holiday cheer. But, boy is this post relevant to me this week. I struggled as I learned that I’ve […]
Depression and Menopause – Part 2
This post is focused on addressing the connection between depression and menopause. It’s become an important topic for me because not only do I understand first-hand depression, but women often talk to me about how depression has either crept into their lives as they enter menopause or how menopause has become even more prevalent as […]
Depression and Menopause – Part 1
Depression and menopause. Two words that we have not strung together in one sentence since we launched this blog, but words that are often used in conjunction with just the thought of menopause. It’s reality—unpredictable hormone fluctuations plus stress, body image, sexuality, infertility, or aging—any one or a combination of these causes emotional distress that […]
Progress. Sexy Ankles!
It’s been a while, so I thought I’d update everyone on my progress related to getting healthy. I was suppose to have my appointment with my healthcare provider this week to get my blood drawn, check blood pressure and discuss further hormone treatment – i.e. my four-month check-up. But, of course, I caught the flu […]
Happy Hormonal Holiday Season!
First – Happy Halloween! And, happy kick-off to Holiday Food Challenges! If you are like me, you have staved off the desire to eat all of the Halloween candy and didn’t have to run to the store and get more for tonight. Of course, I was able to do that because I only bought candy […]
Women Apply 500+ Chemicals a Day
Did you know that the average woman applies over 500 chemicals to her body every single day? I certainly didn’t and when I heard this information during a television news broadcast this past week, I thought the reporter must have made a mistake. There is absolutely no way that I am in some way applying […]
Fighting the Good Fight
This fine Saturday night I find myself enjoying the newest Bill Bryson book (One Summer: America, 1927) and bubbling in a nice, hot, cortisol lowering bath and I’m reflecting on the fact that it’s been almost two months since I received my” insulin resistance” diagnosis. And, I’d be lying if I reported that it has been […]
Self-care Does Not Equal Selfish
I was recently given the chance to write for a great online magazine about my self-care journey. The site is reimagine.me and is overflowing with amazing information for those who have been diagnosed with cancer, along with anyone in general that has been affected by cancer. The site leaves cancer treatment to the doctors, but […]
