I heard Dr. John La Puma discussing the “Indoor Epidemic” recently, research showing that the average person spends an astonishing amount of life indoors.

That statistic really stayed with me, probably because getting outside in nature is such an important part of my everyday life.

Nature is good medicine.

I’ve checked the ingredients in so many different gummies that I already know what I’m going to find under “other ingredients” before I even look. Uusually sugar, “natural flavors” (a vague term that doesn’t tell you exactly what’s in the flavoring), citric acid, and other unnecessary additives just to make them taste good.

I’ve been waiting for someone to make a truly clean gummy, and here it is!

Vimergy took the gummy concept to a whole new level. Besides the active ingredients, the only other ingredients are organic apple, organic tapioca fiber, apple pectin, and water. That’s it.

They took the gummy concept and crushed it - clean AND medicinal. Something to try. I think you're going to love them.

Healing happens in many ways. Sometimes it’s a treatment table, and sometimes it’s simply reconnecting with the natural world around us.

Word has definitely gotten out. New patients walk into the clinic and before I even have a chance to introduce him, they say, “Oh! There’s Happy!” or “ We’ve heard all about Happy!” His calm presence and sweet personality have become part of the healing experience. Come meet Happy, and maybe get a little Acupuncture too ❤️

One of the things I remind my patients often is that the nervous system needs moments like this. Nature, laughter, connection, and simple joy are medicine too.

Day 6 of 9 day liver cleanse. Fruits, veggies, and leafy greens only (no fat). Flooding my cells with real nourishment. Feeling clearer, lighter, and more in tune each day.

Fresh coconuts from the farmers market! Food really lights me up.

Coconut water is incredibly hydrating. Pure natural electrolytes that support the body on a cellular level. Deeply nourishing.

Moments of quiet reflection. Allow the body to shift out of stress and into healing. This is the same space we create in acupuncture.

Every clinic needs a good front desk team. Mine just happens to have four legs. Happy makes sure every patient is greeted the moment they walk through the door.
