Forty-eight hours into this week-long (or longer) mostly raw eating plan, here’s my notes so far: While I believe we are on the right track, rumbling and grumbling about food choices is definitely present. Praying that improves as we go, but it will take creativity to keep the interest level peaked. So, spending a lot […]
Over the last few years, every time my husband and I ate out we wondered, would his hands start itching and hives spread over much of his body followed by misery for the next 20-30 minutes? Gradually this even began happening from freshly prepared meals at home. And now it simply doesn’t go away. A […]
Over the last few weeks as I pondered goals and resolutions for the new year, the reality is no matter how great our intentions — many of our goals will never see completion. This time last year rather than a list of resolutions, I had a neatly crafted list of projects I would like to […]
When Leadership Bartlett (TN) Class of 2014 holds their Orientation/Retreat on January 9th and 10th (and their other scheduled programs throughout the Winter and Spring) I’ll be there learning all I can about the behind the scenes workings of our community and joining with others to network, and work together to bring even more opportunity […]
Music is such a part of Christmas and life itself, (and a part of your experience at Footsteps in Eden Reflexology). Often asked about the music played during your relaxation time, a few of those soothing instrumentals played during the Christmas season are found at the end of the post.

Butter. My mom’s secret ingredient for everything baking. Not margarine, not shortening, not vegetable oil. A year ago today, rediscovering her long lost (but hidden under our noses) recipe for banana bread, I immediately realized why no other recipe would ever match the taste memories the family had. Well, of course, it was butter in […]
I have a plan to keep the holidays simple. Do you? Will we stick to our plans, or will they be sabotaged by the expectations and our imaginatings of the perfect Christmas? It's easy to dream of that Currier and Ives image in our heads, but not so easy to recreate it in our reality. […]
We’ve asked Connie Scheel to focus her article this month on a very special essential oil blend from Young Living: GRATITUDE — the essence of our celebrations. Connie has been experiencing this oil for herself all month, and she shares her thoughts with you. We are full of gratitude for the time she invests in […]
Gratitude and Thanksgiving have been the focus this month, and it appears we’re jumping ahead here at Footsteps in Eden Reflexology. Next Monday would be the day of choice for this post. It’s also the last Monday and that can only mean it will also be time for another essential oil post from Connie. I […]
A special month for giving thanks — the idealistic spark in me would love to believe that we would all live in awareness of our abundant blessings and continuous thankfulness for them all year round. The realist knows that we would all love to live that way, but often feel much less than grateful when […]
