Where and how do animals NATURALLY get vitamin B12?
Today I want to talk to you about a nutrient essential for health and fertility: Vitamin B12… Vitamin B12 is essential to maintain the health of the neurons and the blood. It also supports the formation of the genetic material in all cells. As states Chris Kresser: “B12 deficiency has been associated with or can […]
Animal Sanctuaries, the Drama Triangle and Victim Consciousness
The Drama Triangle describes a model of dysfunctional social interactions and illustrates a power game that involves three roles: Victim, Rescuer, and Persecutor, each role representing a common and ineffective response to conflict.

Plant-based is not the same as Vegan!
Today everyone is talking about plant-based diets but what are we really talking about when we use this term? Many people use it as a synonym for vegan or vegetarian but it’s NOT the same! Plant-based means that plants are the BASE of the diet but can be complemented by up to 25% of animal […]

I stated that, for this reason, we should ideally consciously choose which chicken’s eggs we eat. In yet another previous article I stated how commercially bought seedlings (plants) are […]
From Seed to Plant
Growing a healthy plant (or baby) starts with the quality of the seed and the soil. This is why I place so much emphasis on owning the whole process: 🍀 the selection of the seeds🍀 the preparation of the soil🍀 the nurturing of the growing plant I am part of a local seed network and […]
