Health
Welcome
Health isn’t just about numbers on a chart or trends in the headlines, it’s about how you feel when you wake up, how your body carries you through the day, and how your choices add up over time. This blog series explores health in a way that’s rooted in daily life: grounded, intentional, and personal.
You’ll find posts here about food as medicine, herbs and home remedies, movement and rest, and the ways nature supports healing. Some ideas come from traditional practices, some from current research, and many from hands-on experience. I’m not here to hand out prescriptions. I’m here to share what I’ve tried, what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what might be worth exploring.
Everyone’s path to health looks different. These posts won’t offer one-size-fits-all solutions, but they will offer thoughtful insight and practical ideas that you can adapt to your own rhythm and needs.
Whether you’re looking to feel better, learn more, or just listen in on a different perspective, you’re welcome here.
Let’s dig in.
Hydration, Kidney Health, and a Pinch of Sea Salt

Learn how this simple morning ritual can improve electrolyte balance, assist with inflammation, and support overall wellness, especially for those dealing with arthritis or gout. Includes an easy hydration booster recipe you can make at home.
Infectious (Septic) Arthritis
Infectious arthritis is a medical emergency that demands prompt antibiotic treatment—but that doesn’t mean you’re without natural options to support recovery. This blog explores the causes, symptoms, and ways to gently nourish the body with herbs, teas, salves, and healing foods—only after medical care has begun.
Understanding Arthritis
Arthritis isn’t just one condition—it’s a complex collection of symptoms with different root causes. Whether your pain stems from wear and tear, autoimmunity, or past infection, understanding the “why” behind it can guide you toward more effective, tailored relief. This blog explores the types, causes, and symptoms of arthritis with a focus on personalized care.
