Over the last few years, many people have noticed something unexpected happening in their health, fatigue, inflammation, recurring infections, menstrual irregularities, difficulty detoxing, or a sense that their body simply isn’t responding the way it used to.

If you’ve ever wondered why, you’re not imagining it.

In today’s world, our bodies are being influenced by far more than lifestyle or aging. Environmental toxins, mRNA exposures, electromagnetic influences, and the rise of spike-protein shedding from vaccinated individuals continue to affect both the vaccinated and unvaccinated. Many people who chose not to get the vaccine are still experiencing symptoms that feel “mysteriously new.”

And this is exactly what I’ve been seeing in my clinical practice.

Over time, I’ve worked with patients who are dealing with:
– unexplained inflammation
– hormonal disruption
– immune dysregulation
– chronic fatigue
– brain fog
– elevated stress responses
– difficulty clearing viruses
– heightened sensitivity...

When your breath is shallow, your mind races. When you hold your breath, tension builds. But when you breathe fully and slowly, your body begins to heal. This is what I call the Vital Breath Connection. A gentle reminder that you don’t have to push to create wellness,you simply need to align with the natural rhythm of life itself. Through breathwork, meditation, and mindful daily routines, you can regulate your nervous system, boost immunity, and restore emotional harmony. If you’ve been feeling exhausted, anxious, or out of sync, this is your invitation to reconnect.

Have you ever stopped to notice how you breathe?
Most people are breathing backward, their chest rises, their shoulders tense, and their belly collapses with every inhale.

But true, healing breath does the opposite.
When you inhale, your belly should expand, grounding your energy, calming your mind, and nourishing every cell with oxygen.

This is more than just a breathing technique, it’s a way to bring your nervous system back into balance and awaken your body’s natural healing intelligence.

Take a moment right now:
✨ Inhale through your nose and let your belly gently expand.
✨ Pause.
✨ Exhale slowly through your nose and feel your body soften.

Even one minute of mindful breathing can reset your stress response and restore your clarity.

If you’re ready to go deeper, to align your body, mind, and daily rhythm for true vitality, I’d love to help you create a personalized plan.

We’ve been conditioned to see our bodies as fragile in need of constant medical intervention to survive.
But the truth is far more empowering: your body is perfectly designed to heal itself.

The immune system is your built-in defense mechanism, constantly working to restore balance and protect you. When you live in harmony with nature, through nourishing food, rest, movement, and emotional awareness, you amplify that healing intelligence.

Yet for decades, conventional medicine has taught us to suppress symptoms rather than understand them. Fever, fatigue, cough, these aren’t failures; they’re your body’s way of purging and repairing.

True vitality comes when we support the process, not silence it.

In this week’s feature, Dr. Atousa shares how to rebuild your immune system naturally, restore energy, and reconnect with the wisdom of your body’s perfect design.

Your body is not the problem. It’s the solution.
Let’s start listening to it.

It’s that time of the years again, hot and sunny weather has arrived in the Midwest, at least for a little while.  During your participation in summer outdoor activities it may behoove you to be armed with a little bit more critical information when reaching for the sunscreen.

While there are certainly some instances where sunscreen may be prudent, these products are widely overused and contribute to widespread Vitamin D deficiency.  It is a commonly held natural health expert’s opinion that if you follow sensible sun exposure guidelines to prevent burning, these products are rarely needed.  One option is to get out of the sun or wear clothing the moment your skin starts to turn light pink.

Pilot Study Confirms Your Body Absorbs Toxins from Sunscreen 

In an FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) pilot study, four commonly used active ingredients in sunscreen are absorbed into your blood at levels that could potentially pose health risks.  The four ingredients evaluated include: ...

There seems to be never enough hours in the day to get things done.  Well, this is especially true if you have to take a nap mid-day.  Or if you don’t have the privilege to lie down, you may be experiencing symptoms like difficulty concentrating, lack of interest, moodiness, irritability, weight gain, or even depression. So, you hit the coffee bar and order an espresso drink thinking it will help “get you through the day”. This paints a picture for many.  But the days we have are precious and should never be taken for granted.  Whether it is affecting you at work, or just getting things done around the house, it can get severe if underlying conditions are not managed.  Usually, this doesn’t happen overnight.  There may have been signs along the way that were missed.  Troubleshooting your lack of energy can help make the most out of your day.

It is very easy to test Vitamin D levels in the blood.  Most Americans are deficient in vitamin D and daily multivitamins don’t pro...

Saunas: what they can do for your health!

Saunas have historically been a strategy used in Eastern European, Asian and Scandinavian cultures for relaxation and detoxifications.  Athletes are using extreme heat of saunas for more than just pot-workout stress reduction and relaxation.  Increasing the body’s core temperature actually offers conditioning that may improve athletic performance by increasing endurance.¹

Exposure to extreme temperatures also has a beneficial effect on mitochondrial functioning, the minute powerhouses in your cells that provide your body with the energy required to function.  The key to continued energy production is to remove old and worn-out ones and generate new mitochondria, a process known as biogenesis.

Researchers had previously determined that exposure the extreme heat can help reduce the risk or cardiac death and high blood pressure.  They have now identified the direct effect that sauna heat has on a vascular health, blood pressure and heart rate.^2...

How many hours sleep do you think is appropriate each night?

Would you be surprised to know that on average it is recommended to get at least 7 hours of sleep a day? According to The American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the Sleep Research Society, 1 in 3 adults (ages 18-60) sleep less than 7 hours each night.

Sleeping less than 7 hours for adults has shown an increased risk of critically disturbing the body and brain, causing weight gain, increasing impulsive behavior and the potential of memory loss. ⁽²⁾ Increased risk of diabetes, high blood pressure and thyroid deregulation are also side effects of not getting the right amount of sleep.

Our bodies produce a natural substance called leptin, which is a hormone produced to trigger our “fullness” or satiety feeling and it is lessened when we are sleep deprived. At the same time, ghrelin which is a hormone that triggers hunger, is heightened. Results of one study conducted at the University of Chicago in Illinois showed that when sl...
