Car Parts For Sale Here?

Sorry wrong website.  This is about health, as most of you know. However some Doctors for some reason, know little to nothing about Naturopathy.  Hence the comment from a Dr. one of my patients went to “What would you go to a Naturopath for?  That’s like going to the mechanic for a haircut!” Oh doesn’t

You Wouldn’t Believe The Changes!

by Leisa on February 22, 2008

When I think about the things that I’m grateful for (as per my last blog post), one that comes to mind quite regularly is my work at Hippocrates Health Centre. I know, I know, everyone is supposed to hate their jobs (!), but that’s certainly not true in my world!  If I need to work,

What Are You Grateful For Today?

by Leisa on February 19, 2008

Feeling grateful is such an empowering emotion, and it’s one that doesn’t always come to mind unless we take the time to sit down and think about it. And when we actually do that, we can find hundreds of things to be grateful for, and suddenly our seemingly ordinary life becomes something of wonder and

Is Commitment a Dirty Word?

by Leisa on February 15, 2008

A couple of small incidents happened over the last couple of days which have left me pondering over the meaning of the word commitment. The dictionary says that commitment is “the trait of sincere and steadfast fixity of purpose”. I get the feeling though, that a lot of people see the word commitment in a

There’s Nothing Accidental About Murder

by Leisa on February 7, 2008

When one person kills another through a genuine accident or through no fault of their own it is termed manslaughter.  When one person dies at the hands of another person who is knowingly in charge of a lethal weapon, it is murder. And this is what happened to Heath Ledger, murdered by the medical industry

Doctors Drive Me Crazy!

by Leisa on February 4, 2008

I try very hard not to Dr. bash, (ok, I don’t try THAT hard!), but what they do at times certainly does drive me crazy! This area came up again today when I had a consultation with an elderly patient who was suffering from faintness, dizziness upon standing and some mental confusion. After taking a case

Music For My Soul

by Leisa on January 31, 2008

As well as my Green Smoothie obsession, I have another obsession going on at the moment.  You can probably tell I don’t do things by halves!  It’s either all the way or not at all… I have the new Sacred Earth CD, The Way Home, and I can’t stop playing it.  I have it on

Green For Life!

by Leisa on January 28, 2008

Green smoothies are my new obsession, and although I’ve known about them for a long time, it’s only just recently that I’ve included them as a daily part of life. I have been guilty of what many raw foodists tend to do with food, and that is lean very heavily towards fats in the diet.

The Double Blind Debacle

by Leisa on January 26, 2008

We often hear loud protests from the medical community that natural medicine is “unscientific” because many nutrients, herbs, foods and therapies have not undergone the Gold Standard for the scientific industry – the double blind placebo controlled trial. Natural medicine, because of it’s holistic quality, can never conform to industry standards because you cannot measure
