Naturopathic Life and LivingBack to the BasicsLife can get pretty chaotic and seem nearly out of control at times. What do we do when this happens? When we feel pulled in different directions at once? When calls are coming through and demands keep getting placed on us and we feel like its starting to become unmanageable- doesnt matter with what, doesnt matter from what- could be family, friends, work commitments, home life tasks, our healthcare concerns... the list goes on.What can we do to get back on track? How can we refocus and make this something we can feel some semblance of regularity with?2021-08-1317 minNaturopathic Life and LivingPerspectives: We Each Have One, What's Yours?The only way we can see anything is from our own unique perspective, which oftentimes doesn't actually see what's right in front of us, but rather, is overshadowed by our past, our beliefs and our insecurities trying to keep us safe.When we are able to step outside of ourselves, and view things from someone else's perspective, truly seeing the world through their eyes, we can broaden our capacity for empathy, open our awareness and expand our ability to understand another.Having the potential to do this also shows that if we aren't happy with our present, or...2021-05-2122 min
Naturopathic Life and LivingSometimes All We Can Do Is Wait.. and ResetAs we get closer to reaching our goals, visions and dreams, we can feel overwhelmed at the realization that what we've wanted for so long is finally well within reach. This alone can be frightening, as merging realities of not having, to having can sometimes be incredibly scary and feel like we are not in control of the situation. This happens when the momentum we've built up takes over and change happens... leading to a dissolving of our boundaries and a resetting of our edges. Explore a little of what this looks like as well as how and why w...2021-03-1515 minNaturopathic Life and LivingUpcoming YouTube Channel Preview: My New Best Friend- ArjaI've decided to create a YouTube Channel and call it "Dr Francois and My New Best Friend". I'll be interviewing some truly inspirational people, helping spread the word about who they are and what awesome things they do. Why? Because many people haven't learned about all the wonderful opportunities there are. By knowing certain people, and understanding age-old teachings, you'll be able to access yet to be discovered parts of yourself through the wisdom they provide. Whenever I meet someone that I find over the top that keeps me sitting on the edge of my seat, I'm going to be...2021-02-1936 minNaturopathic Life and LivingSharon: What's In A Name?Discover the Art of what creator Sheron calls Neimology- derivation of a person's life and aspects of who they are based on the spellings of their name, and letter orientation.Sharon discusses her 4 books and online available programs, and how to utilize this amazing system for your own benefit, including knowing which people would and wouldnt get along, how to name your business, and why someone's quirks are what they are.thenamelady.com knowthename.com#whatsinaname #toolsforconnection #unification #namescience--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lee-anne-francois-dornbus/messageSupport this...2021-02-1043 minNaturopathic Life and LivingThat's Life...

Toxic masculinity, as evidenced imo through Christianity (and although unmentioned, all patriarchal monotheistic religions), and therefore encouraged, enforced and downright expected from society actually causes monumental damage within society.Honoring both the feminine and masculine while owning ones choices and actions, while sitting through the discomfort of uncomfortable conversations, is the only way of being authentic. Moving forward isn't scary because of moving into the unknown, it's because we are...2021-01-1014 minNaturopathic Life and LivingFamily and the Holidays: How Are You Experiencing Yours?Holidays are times for sharing of experiences... multi-dimensionally- we exist in a complex way with differing dynamics. Not only in the constitutions of our families, but in how we relate to and with them, and of how we show up in that dynamic. Once we are able to recognize that we in fact exist in mind, body, heart and soul, we can allow ourselves to recognize all the ways we receive our loved ones- even well after they are no longer here with us. If CoVid has shown me anything in 2020, it's that our experiences are always our experiences and...2020-12-2516 minNaturopathic Life and LivingRisks and Taking Chances, Are You Ready for Change?In this episode I talk with Chi, a man I recently met during the online Oneness festival. I wanted to interview Chi and have him share his story because I witnessed an amazing transformation within him that I wanted to spotlight and encourage him to grow and feel into... being his authentic self... to really support his successes moving forward. Also, to let him share his journey and the decisions he made along the way which led him to him deciding the risk was worth it to change. He attributes his inspiration, successes and decisions to Dr Donny Epstein, D...2020-12-1340 minNaturopathic Life and LivingIntegrity in CommitmentsNew acoustics today. Why?

Naturopathic Life and LivingHappy HalloweenHolidays, festivities, traditions, rituals.... they provide us with a sense of normalcy, connection, community and peaceful balance so importantly necessary ESPECIALLY during times of stress like this pandemic. As we ease into another change of season including the election in the US, we can look at celebrations like Halloween to offer us some stability. An important aspect of Halloween- at least how Ive rasied my kids with it- includes the freedom and practice of offering children the opportunities to be empowered with their costumes, where they trick-or-treat at, and the management of the candies they collect... leading to them being...2020-11-0118 minNaturopathic Life and LivingSoul Initiations and the Darkness of CreationShamballa School's Jon Darrel-Rew discusses the Universal Soul Initiations we all have the opportunity to experience, as well as differentiates darkness in the different ways people (wrongly) associate what it means.

How long we wait to be able to adapt to those challenges determines how well we succeed or how much we get derailed by life. Despite wanting to publish my much awaited interview with a brilliant man (hopefully I can get all my technical difficulties resolved and have it up next time...), I needed to recognize it wasnt going to happen this time around, unless I really wanted to delay this episode's release...

With the recording and publishing getting delayed from seemingly random computer issues... it's representative of the "two steps forward, one step back" commonality for right now, as well as it being a time for contemplation of past issues resurfacing- to once and for all purge them out of our systems. It's also a great time for re-affirming boundaries, getting clarity on decisions, and coming to terms with our past decisions... honoring introspection and...2020-09-1820 min
