I'm sure you would like to know a little bit more about who is behind this program. My "real job" is as a family nurse practitioner in Montana.  I've been providing office based primary care services for 13 years and prior to that spent years in critical care and emergency nursing.  In my current practice, I have a special interest in the peri-menopausal woman and use of bio-identical hormones.

I have become somewhat disenfranchised with the healthcare system that we have now- it promotes prescriptions over nutrition and medical procedures over wellness counseling and coaching.  Try as I might, there is no reasonable way within the current healthcare system to provide the ongoing support my patients need to make healthy lifestyle changes that last.  Which is why I'm launching 
HealthyHabitsOnline!  

I won't be providing medical advice here and I won't be functioning as a nurse practitioner.  I will be helping you, step-by-step, to create and enjoy the healthiest eating plan for your body, to find a way to fit more playful activity into your life, and to approach problems like insomnia and stress in healthy ways.

I believe we should Be SMART!  First and foremost, we need to relearn to Breathe!  Sustenance is addressed early in the program.  We work on Mindfulness throughout the year. And, we learn about fitting more Activity into our lives and how to optimally Rejuvenate!  And then we put it all together in a Total Therapeutic Lifestyle
