- Re-form the Healthcare Paradigm September 1, 2009I recently read the article in the Washington Post by Kathleen Sebelias, our new Secretary of Health and Human Services. It brought this issue that has been nagging in the back of my head to the fore. She really believes that Obama’s plan will improve the health of Americans. But that is impossible. That is [...]drthyr
- Like Water Off a Duck’s Back, or “Just Chill” August 1, 2009I have always wished that I were a more mellow person. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Let it go like water off a duck’s back. I love those snappy little sayings. Love them until I try to embody them, that is. They make it sound so easy. Like that is just the way it happens. [...]drthyr

- Vitamin C – My Allergy Saver April 23, 2009It seems so simple, but it’s true. Good ol’ vitamin C, which most of us have in our medicine cabinets, helps relieve allergy symptoms. Vitamin C is an excellent mast cell stabilizer. The mast cells are the ones who release the histamines when in the presence of allergens. So when those cells are a little less [...]drthyr
- My Dream Column April 10, 2009I have often had this vision of myself as a columnist for some fabulous journal or newspaper. Readers would write in their questions and I’d give my perspective and experience as a naturopathic doctor to help answer their questions. Now, nothing beats and one-to-one appointment with a practitioner to help take care of your health concerns. [...]drthyr
- Springtime Self Care April 3, 2009I met with my trainer, Michael Finn, on Monday. I love the workouts he designs for me. He makes me feel good about the little progress I have made. He creates adjustments to make the program more difficult (arghhh!). But when all is said and done, nothing will change if I don’t work on my [...]drthyr
- Happy Spring! March 24, 2009Ahhhh! The first days of spring. Feel the warmth, the movement of new plants, the freshness. We all feel a bit more motivated when the sun shines hotter and the days are longer. Take advantage of the longer light to tend to yourself this spring. Sit outside and listen to the birds for 15 minutes at [...]drthyr
- Liver Detox last day! Hooray!! March 20, 2009I have to say, I have been much better on the detox than I have been about the blog. I mostly just didn’t want to whine. It is difficult to continue this so diligently as well as being the cheerleader. I feel great. Am soooo happy that I participated with the group. I’m ever so grateful [...]drthyr
- Liver Detox Week 2 March 14, 2009This is the main week. It’s the week that we are really perfect in our food choices, elimination of caffeine, etc, and taking more of the detox supplement. I came out of my fog of last week in good form. We’ll see if things get tough as I increase the powder to twice/day. But for now [...]drthyr
