I have two Toddlers. They love sweets and I give them their treats, but I have some summer tricks too!

Here are our fave treats, Disguised as guilty indulgence, I am sly and full of sneakiness at the squealing delight of the kids when they see the pudding cups! HA HA HA - I fooled them AGAIN!!

Choco-Nana Pudding

1. banana
2. 1 Avocado
3. 1/2 cup coco powder
4. 2 tbspn of coconut oil
5. 1 tbspn of Maple syrup (or another liquid sweetner, adjust to taste
6. 1 tsp vanilla
   

Blend well, I use my only kitchen star and much loved Vita-Mix xoxox (hi five to my Vita, Love ya!!!)

Banana Ice Cream

1. Frozen Bananas

Blend well, and eat - Seriously rivals any Frozen yogurt!!! and is WAY Healthier!!

Look for recipes of Chai versions, I like cinnamon, nutmeg and other spices on top. mmmm going to make some now.

We experiment with frozen fruits, using berries, mangoes, grapes, even cashews and hempseeds!! Sometimes, when there is a hint of extra sneakiness in me, I throw a leaf of Kale in the blender. No one can ever tell, especially if I load up the berries or sneak some in the pudding. MWA HA HA!! (insert sneaky laugh here)

That leaves me to say, Kale Smoothies are gonna get blogged on ASAP!!!!

If anything, this video should help to encourage people to turn to alternative modalities for help.  Yes, most registered psychologists use some form of energy psychology in their practice! The Mental wellness community fully supports energy psychology. WHEE, EMDR, EFT, Psych K are just few available.

I myself was amazed at Dan Benor's simple and effective WHEE process. During training with Dan Benor, I experienced a complete relief of my Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and it has never come back in the last two years!

I have training in WHEE and Body Talk incorporates Energy Psychology and I often find myself asking about fears, anxieties and phobias while working on a client.  I have seen my own depression lift, driving anxieties lift, and insomnia diminished after using WHEE.

" . . . my most uttered phrase “I don’t know” reflected my state of health and care."
 Laura Cook


Born and raised in Coquitlam, I trained in Fine Arts and worked in Film Arts until I was in an accident at 24 years old. Minutes after leaving my grandmother’s house, a Semi truck rear ended my best friend and I on Thanksgiving weekend 2003, completely destroying her Ford Tempo. We had stopped at a red light on Highway 97 in Kelowna but the trucker missed the light and drove through us. Neither of us had any broken bones or cuts and we were taken to Kelowna General Hospital for observation.

I was not myself

My best friend noted to the paramedics and Doctors that I was not myself. I personally have no recollection of the impact, trip to the hospital or arrival, and only remember  waking up to a doctor walking away saying, “if she starts to throw up, we will order a CAT scan” conveniently, I started throwing up.  The CAT scan came back fine and I was released to go home the next morning.

40 mini seizures a day

I never really knew what I was experiencing at the time, I only figured out after a few months that things were wrong with my brain and body. My word recall was severely limited, and I could not seem to grasp what I felt. I became severely cutoff from my friends and family, as I could not communicate clearly. I had hit my head hard in the accident and was suffering from a lot of migraines and head pain. Above anxiety, I experienced multiple tiny shakes or petite mal seizures everyday, at least 4 or 5 an hour or 40 a day. I did not connect to my personality, I never knew who I was inside, I felt like an empty shell of a being. To the severe frustration of those around me, my most uttered phrase “I don’t know” reflected my state of health and  care.

Infinite love and patience

Orthopedic Analysis, Psychoanalysis, MRI’s, CAT scans, therapists, Massage therapy, chiropractic, Anti Depressant drugs, and of course more Anti depressant drugs led me no where, worse than before and lost. Through everything, my partner supported and loved me and gave me infinite patience. Without which I am not sure I would have been able to recover so well.
