Seasonal Health Plan
Have you ever made marshmallows?
Did you know you can use marshmallows roots as the base of your marshmallows?
Interested in using herbal medicine in your life?
I did an overnight cold infusion of marshmallow and replaced the water in the recipe with marshmallow infusion. SO GOOD and so tasty.
Also because there is something deep inside me that refuses to follow a recipe exactly - i did 1/4 cup of maple syrup and 1/4 of sugar and they are plenty sweet. Marshmallow root is a demulcent soothing herb that can benefit digestion. Black sesame is known to support hair and skin and is helpful for constipated. Sweet treats that are delicious and good for you.
ps the kid loved them

My face ID no longer recognizes me.
So I thought maybe you might need a refresher.
Hi it’s me Giselle aka Dr Gigi
I am a Naturopathic doctor who has been in practice for 23 years. I believe that great healthcare is essential to these changing times. I make seasonal health plans for busy people so they can have more energy. I am here to talk about digestion, nervous system support and always hormones. From thinking about becoming a parent to perimenopause and beyond.
Let’s talk about what you need.
happy days are on the way.
sun is shining.
we are shedding the snake.
i am working on my joy.
i made beet kvass
it speaks to my love of beets, the beautiful colour and cheap and easy prep.
💖do you love nourishing elixirs?
💫making your medicine?
💜supporting your digestive system?
Make some beet Kvass - it’s is high in nutrients, natures electrolytes, promotes regularity, great for your liver.
Hello friends I had a great full moon. It’s my favourite time of the year, the light becomes me. I start feeling optimistic about summer. Are you feeling blah? Lack inspiration?
Not feeling excited about the future? The future is now! Today is tomorrow! Get yourself to nature, or experience art in your community.
I can prescribe visits to the Vancouver Art Gallery. Let’s talk.

Do you like having a glow?
Are you sweating it out on a regular basis?
Dealing with chronic pain?
Imagine there is one tool that supports all of this. Infra red sauna is that tool. I bought this sauna 22 years ago when I become a Naturopathic doctor. It has moved around and lived in a clinic, a closet in a clinic and my garage. It now lives in my room and I have been sauna more than i did in my preconception phase. Interested in learning more about detox and sauna. Let’s talk.

Have you ever wondered if you are perimenopausal, furious or actually maybe just hungry? It’s time to find out.
I have always loved food.
I am the person who plans the meals. I love going to get groceries. AND I often miss meals, choose coffee for breakfast and would chacuterie my life if i could.
My goal is the information. ADHD affects your brain body cues. ADHD medication can suppress your appetite. Learning how my body responds to these real life situations in real time will give me the information I want. Wish me luck. I will keep you posted.
Taking my own advice - Make the fire cider. I love seasonal health and paying attention to where you are and what you need. It’s always changing. Just like those seasons - following season health care helps to tag our memory, hone our awareness and remind us that as everything changes, we can feel safe and enjoy the ride. The sun will set and we will begin again. Fall is here and with it comes the shorter days and cold and flu season. Fire cider is a great tool to help with prevention. 🍁🍂🎃

It’s not pretty. I like a white board so you can change it as we need. This was last week and it really helped our household distribute the work and use the groceries in our fridge. Meal planning is important it saves money, time and energy. Do you meal plan?

A new school year is here. Fresh start for us all.
This week doesn’t count - it’s a crepe shoot :)
Take these next few weeks to make a family plan together. 😋Make a list of favourite recipes, quick meals, easy breakfasts. 📋Meal plan for next week - INCLUDING groceries - who is buying, when do we need it 🫒Get the healthy snacks It takes time to get in a new groove. Be kind to your brain. Ask for help if there is no help - OUTSOURCE. Hot lunches saved my brain, my budget and my sanity last year. Dr. G’s Gluten Free Crepes 2 cups gf flour from 3 eggs 1.5 cups liquid -i like soy for added protein 3/4 cup of yogurt dash of salt and add splash of vanilla and a couple tbsp of sugar if making sweet.
Mix it in a blender and away you go.

Summer is my season!!!!! I love the heat. I love to be in the water. I love eating big salads. I love all the beaching I have been able to prioritize.
That’s the thing with priorities - something has gotta give. School starts next week and routines have to be recreated. Ready to get back on track - wanna make a new track?
