A Simple 5-Minute Technique That Helped Me Feel Calm Again 💜


Hi Reader,

Have you ever had a moment…
when a memory, a song, or even a photo suddenly takes over your emotions?

It happens so fast… and before you know it, your focus is gone, your energy drops, and your whole day feels different.

Since losing my husband in November 2023, I’ve been experiencing this more often than I’d like to admit. And for a long time, I kept asking myself:

“Is this just how it’s going to be?”

But just a few days ago, I discovered something that has truly surprised me.

While listening to a podcast by Dr Mindy Pelz featuring Jessica Ortner, I learned about a simple technique called tapping (also known as Emotional Freedom Techniques).

I’ll be honest—it sounded a little unusual at first.

But I decided to try it.

And what I experienced… was a sense of calm I hadn’t felt in a long time.

Even more surprising?

Later that same day, after being swarmed by ants (yes, really!), I used tapping again—and the itching, redness, and discomfort disappeared within minutes.

I share all of this with you in this short video:

If you’ve been dealing with:
• emotional triggers

• overthinking
• or simply want a way to feel calmer and more in control

This may be a gentle, natural tool worth exploring.

Always here for you 💜

Federal Government Awards Legal Cannabis

Hi Reader, What if the same government that once claimed cannabis had no medical value… prescribed it to you every single day for over 30 years? That’s exactly what happened to my latest podcast guest, Irvin Rosenfeld. Irvin is one of the longest surviving federal medical cannabis patients in the United States. Diagnosed with a rare and painful bone disorder that causes multiple bone tumors, he became part of a little-known federal program that supplied him with medical cannabis for decades....

Hi Reader, Most people think unhealthy means overweight. But what if one of the most dangerous forms of fat is completely hidden? I recently read the fascinating book Growing Better Not Older by Dr. Sean O’Mara, and it completely changed how I think about aging, inflammation, and disease prevention. In my newest YouTube presentation, I share shocking MRI scan images that reveal something called visceral fat — hidden fat wrapped around our organs that may silently contribute to: • Heart...
