Reflecting on the past ten years of Desert Mountain Apothecary in the social media landscape, how the changes in technology, platforms, and aesthetics have shaped the different chapters of my content. Challenging myself to learn how to create video content has been a long battle with a steep learning curve, and in those years I’ve gone through several different iterations of video styles and subjects. One thing that I think rings true from all of my videos is that they all showcase a deep and sincere love of nature, and I’m so grateful to share that with you with Desert Mountain Apothecary. Circling back to an earlier project, I’m reactivating Natural Lifestyle Optimization, which is a method for creating lasting transformational change in your life by harnessing the power of the mind, body, and spirit. Please join me on this inspiring journey of discovery deep into the subconscious where we use micro-habits to improve all aspects of life without making drastic changes. So I hope you enjoy this expansive look back at this fascinating experiment, my calling to re-start Natural Lifestyle Optimization, and some helpful advice for finishing out 2024 and the holiday season.

Happy New Year from Desert Mountain Apothecary! It’s been a supremely beautiful holiday season here in the California Desert, with wild winter weather, great food, and a siphon’s draw or two of fine spirits. Some years I don’t have any New Year’s resolutions, but this year I’m brimming with them, and most of them are about keeping up with the basics, but some are about new experiences.

I wrote a new article just for you called Re-Renewing Your Spirit, it’s about getting back on the wellness path after falling off. Resiliency and adaptability are the two most important make or break skills to have, and I want you to have more and better tools to hone those skills. There’s always going to be something in the external world to push us off the path towards wellness and spiritual renewal, that’s why it’s so important to focus on learning how to get yourself back on track.

Resiliency and adaptation are so important right now, it’s imperative that we adapt and build on what we have learned in the last year and a half going forward. Otherwise it’s the path of least resistance to just give up on critical self-care activities like exercise, meditation, skincare, grooming, getting proper sleep, maintaining a healthy weight through a nutritious diet, and enjoying alcohol in moderation.
