You know what I love about our beautiful Desert community?

The sense of unity. Everyone seems to come together to support each other. Whether it’s a project, cause, social function, initiative, or simply a pat on the back, it’s exceptional and unlike most places I have lived.

I’d like to think that our goodwill and camaraderie is because most of us lead with our hearts and consider the greater good which usually results in more abundance and success for all.

In this issue, Jennifer Di Francesco discusses kindness at work while Dr. Sinsheimer advises on teaching kindness to kids.

In October, Jeralyn Brossfield, MD, of XO Health hosted a complimentary symposium on brain health for local professionals. Medical doctors, naturopathic physicians and a variety of practitioners came together to learn the latest advances reversing cognitive decline which is certain to benefit the lives of many in our community.

We all know how busy the social calendar is this time of year, and yet all events seem to receive abundant support (yes, we do enjoy a good party!). We are proud to offer an array of healthy festivities and look forward to seeing everyone get out and play.

With the many gatherings, it can be challenging to stick to your healthy routine, so we’re providing helpful tips on surviving gluten and sugar-free, escaping the chaos with essential oils, finding your holiday happy, and more.

As we enter our 10th anniversary year in 2020, we are so very blessed that you have come together in support of Desert Health. We are overwhelmed with gratitude and wish each of you a very happy and healthy holiday.

With sincere appreciation ~
