It’s been just over a year since my baby girl sprung an early arrival and since I’ve been on maternity leave! I’m now back at Nature Doctors, excited to book appointments! Dr. Deirdre Jasper ND has been amazing throughout this year, and I hope you’ve had the chance to connect with her while I’ve been on leave. If not, I’m more than happy to pick up where we’ve left off and continue to collaborate on your

After much anticipation of an April due date, my baby decided to arrive 1 month early in March! To my surprise, we had a little girl, Ivy Maude Evea (pronounced Uh-vay-ah). Born in a hurry with an incredible birth, we received difficult news shortly after that she had a congenital diaphragmatic hernia. This condition came as a surprise and meant she needed to be in the NICU and required surgery to repair her diaphrag

It’s been a few months now since I made the move to Nature Doctors from Wolseley Wellness Centre, and it’s going really well! I love working with so many talented Naturopathic Doctors – being able to share info and updates in health on a regular basis, as well as bounce ideas and questions off colleagues in real time.

I will still be in-office 2 full days per week, and actually available for more hours of appointments per week! Starting June 23rd, I’ll be in-office Tuesdays and Wednesdays all day and into part of the eve

This week’s theme food for our family has been mushrooms! With the air becoming more brisk, the earthiness of these little bite-size morsels tend to call out to my taste buds. And when I made the declaration earlier this week to my husband, “I’m really into mushrooms lately!”, he knew a health benefit was on the tip of my tongue. And so there was… Edible & medicinal mushrooms have ma

Since the Canadian government’s Anti-spam legislation came into effect this summer, I thought it was high time to have a new and easier to read platform for my newsletters and clinic announcements. As existing patients, you’ve agreed to receive communication and newsletters by providing your email address. This is the most effective way for me to provide important information about changes in the clinic, my practice

In a matter of weeks, it will be cold and flu season. Now picture yourself, watery eyes and runny nose…elbow deep in tissues and wishing you weren’t so achy and chilled. What to do?! Do you suffer through it? Or find someone to run to the pharmacy and grab an assortment of decongestants, pain relievers and fever reducers? OR…do you pick up the phone and call your doctor…your Naturopathic Doctor!? Wa

When I think summer, I think patios, lakes, swimming, relaxation, hot weather and long days. (Ok, sure…throw in some mosquitoes and a little too much sun…I am in Manitoba after all!) But the reality is that most of us still work during summer.  And the routine of life, instead of becoming more serene and summer-magical…can become more chaotic! Now, summer is my favourite season. But I’m learni
