Be Nice

Chicken soup is good for the soul. But so is paying it forward. I don’t mean just buying someone’s coffee at the local coffee shop.


I mean volunteering at the local soup kitchen. 


Adopt a senior at the local nursing home. 


Volunteer at a local hospital and visit the families, patients and even the staff on that unit. 


Something as simple as holding a door open with a smile and saying have a great day, can make both you and that person indeed have a great day. 




Life is a challenge for all of us on a daily basis. Throw some soul food at it every once in  a while ..... simply, because it makes you feel good.

So let’s shine some light on this butterfly-shaped gland at the base of your neck, why it sometimes turns against you, and how you can support yourself through both medical treatment and holistic care. What is Hashimoto’s Disease? Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the thyroid gland. Over time, chronic inflammation damages thyroid cells, reducing hormone production and leading to hypothyroidism (an underactive thyroid).
