  • Why you should be eating Regenerative Agriculture Meats - Interview with Devorah Kimelman-Block

    "Let your food be your medicine" is a phrase we always hear but when it comes to buying a steak or chicken for dinner we don't realize that, that meat is making us sicker.

    The great news is that with Regenerative Agriculture the meat produced is actually able to make you healthier. The omega 3s are healthier and a lot more!

    There’s so much to regenerative agriculture and what’s happening with the agricultural world. Take a listen and let us know what you think.

  • Why NOT to keep a distance: Touch = better health. Especially for babies!

    Feeling aggressive? Short-tempered? Straight angry? You probably need to touch someone, and that can be REAL tricky right now. 


    It turns out, the thing we're avoiding most right now may have a major role to play in our overall health, and Khyati knows all about that! 


    We may not be able to touch, hug or even shake hands like we don't even know we're craving, but we can do some things at home together!


    As mother Teresa says--'If you want to heal the world, start with your own family.' So, let's bring touch back in our homes with infant (and other family to family) massage!


    Unfortunately, American culture teaches us that touch is always sexual, and that cultural norm can keep us from creating real bonds that help us heal at a really fundamental level--baby massage helps us retrain ourselves to embrace our craving for touch, and use it to promote healing + deeper human connections.

  • Shade loving producers and making your home a permaculture oasis with Brandy Hall

    Have you ever walked a few feet from your front door, picked a few ripe berries, popped them in your mouth and thought 'this is the life'?
