Patients often ask me about health and wellness tips. After answering many iterations of this question, I learned something simple yet profound: the answer isn’t a supplement or exercise routine.

It’s a mindset.

Stay Wild.

It’s a mindset that invigorates vitality while fueling creativity. It breaks down walls and brings people together. Most importantly, it cultivates awe. Awe is that feeling where things align within you, yet are released at the same time.

Staying Wild opens pathways of possibility. It’s the self-confidence you build choosing natural health remedies. The resilience of growing your own food. The adventure of outdoor activities in nature. It’s not just what we do. It’s who we are.

Beyond the philosophy? There’s solid science. Just 10 minutes outdoors significantly boosts well-being and provides relief from depression. Research shows improvements in blood pressure, cognitive function, and reduced chronic disease risk.

Living outside of Portland, Maine, I meet people who embrace sustainable living and outdoor recreation. Local farmers, hunters, gardeners, each with the knowledge that spending time in nature just feels good.

So if you’re ready to improve your mental health and discover the wellness benefits of nature, consider embracing something wild.
You.

Proud to support by attending an insightful fundraising workshop today! As a dedicated board member, I joined fellow advocates from various nonprofits across Maine today. Our goals were to refresh our fundraising strategies and ensure we continue to provide vital support to our communities. The workshop was organized by and was expertly led by Andy Robinson.

Here’s what we covered:
- Identifying the best mix of revenue sources for our organization
- Creating an annual fundraising calendar (so key - the more you plan, the more preparation you have for other events during the year)
- Evaluating current fundraising strategies for feasibility
- Developing and articulating a persuasive case for support to donors
- Identifying new opportunities to improve our fundraising approach
-Plus a whole lot more

The Maine State Breastfeeding Coalition has a mission to make a healthier Maine. Feeling inspired and ready to put these insights into action with the board!

Had a nice time stopping in today for a smoothie in Brunswick. Picked up the Luz Do Sol with some protein powder 😋

Mango, pineapple, coconut, honey and almond milk. Great combo.

Pineapple 🍍: high in vitamin C
1 serving = whole days worth of vitamin C

Also a good source of copper (an important mineral for many metabolic enzymes for energy and detoxification)

What’s also great about pineapple is that it contains bromelain, a type of natural digestive enzyme! This compound is often found in many digestive support supplements.

So thanks Bay Bowls for fueling my afternoon and bringing some joy.
