Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone is taking the time they need to rest and rejuvenate during this challenging time. If you are looking for something to do at home with little effort and maximum benefits look no further! YOGA! Yoga doesn't have to be done in a studio or require you to stand on your head. Yoga requires you to be present, compassionate, and relaxed which everyone can use a little more of during this time! There are many platforms for yoga classes now so jump in and you will immediately see the benefit! #drlisa

**We are here for you! Dr. Laughlin is seeing patient's via telemedicine during normal business hours. Even if you want to do a quick check-in she is available (and all copays/co-insurances are waived!) Don't hesitate to reach out if you need something** 🙂

Happy Monday! I hope everyone was able to get outside and enjoy some of the sunshine 🙂

With immune support being the hot topic right now, it is important to remember our immune system function begins in our digestive tract! Up to 80% of our immune cells reside in the lining of our guts which means guts support = immune support! One easy way to help proper digestion is with my favorite herb, GINGER! Ginger increases our digestive "fire" and can support proper digestion/absorption of nutrients! Below is one way you can help you system:

- 1 inch of ginger: peeled and cut into thin strips
- 1 lime: about 1/2 cup of lime juice
- pinch of salt

Add these ingredients into a jar and be sure the strips of ginger are covered completely. Store in the fridge and about 15 minutes before each meal eat 1-2 slices of the ginger! Feel free to share your experience below! #drlisa

Happy Thursday! Even with the rain I hope everything is getting outside for fresh air regularly 🙂

I wanted to remind everyone that in this difficult time there is no "right" or "wrong" response. Something occurring this suddenly, there was no way to prepare for this on a mental/emotional level. I challenge you all to be patient and kind with yourselves. Allowing yourself to feel however you are feeling. If you are scared, mad, sad, crying, yelling, retreating, organizing, doing nothing, binging TV shows, or eating all types of snack; it is OK!! Allow yourself to just be in what you are feeling and allow any shifts. Be sure you are supporting yourself in whatever ways you can without judgement #drlisa

No Wrong Response

www.dailyom.com

Our view of the universe is largely determined by our experiences. It is when we are caught off guard by the spontaneity of existence that we are most apt to respond authentically, even when our feelings do not correspond with those of the multitude. Events that arouse strong emotions with us or are...

What are you doing to have fun?? There is a lot to focus on that can be negative and bring down our moods. It is important to laugh EVERY DAY! Find a show, a person, a book, a podcast, something on youtube, anything that brings a smile to your face and spend time each day laughing! After all, laughter is the best medicine 🙂 #drlisa

In Praise of Fun

www.dailyom.com

Often when we talk about fun, or doing things just for fun, we talk about it in a dismissive way as if fun isn't important. We tend to value hard work and seriousness, and we forget to pay our respects to the equally important, light side of silliness and laughter. This is ironic because we all know...

Why not Ibuprofen? Great question! There is a lot of misinformation (again) surrounding the use of Ibuprofen and other NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatories) with any viruses. It is crucial to note that NSAIDs will NOT necessarily increase your likelihood of contracting any viruses. However, when an NSAID is taken with an active viral infection, the medication can increase prolong the time the virus is in your system and increase the likelihood of further complications. This is why it is being suggested to use analgesic medications such as Tylenol for symptoms associated with an active infection. For other recommendations on pain relievers please be sure to consult your physician. #drlisa

Covid-19: ibuprofen should not be used for managing symptoms, say doctors and scientists

www.bmj.com

Scientists and senior doctors have backed claims by France’s health minister that people showing symptoms of covid-19 should use paracetamol (acetaminophen) rather than ibuprofen, a drug they said might exacerbate the condition. The minister, Oliver Veran, tweeted on Saturday 14 March that people ...
