Welcome and Reflection Statement

I would like to welcome everyone to my blog.  I am a dental hygienist and good oral health is my overall goal.  I hope to one day teach underprivileged communities the importance of good oral hygiene.  I have been in the dental field for 13 years now.  I started as an assistant and went back to school to become a hygienist after 7 years of assisting.  I am new to health and wellness, but I might like to incorporate this type of wellness into my practice.  I am skeptical, but I know you all will help convince me that the mind, body, and spirit can help my patients and even me.  I’m hoping that this type of health and wellness will convince my patients to start floss.  My life has been filled with very rocky roads and I’m trying to overcome all the pain in my life, so I can move on and be happy in life and in my marriage.

  1. Nicki, welcome. I am glad to hear that you have an open and mind and are willing to explore the benefits of truly holistic health. That is awesome that you are a dental hygienist. I absolutely love going to the dentist! They love me there because they say I make their jobs easy. Never had a cavity and floss all the time. It may be a little compulsive! Best wishes and be well!

    1. Hi Danny, Yes we love people like you since 90% of people don't floss. I spend most days removeing people's lunch and dinner from the day before. It gets fustrating, you would think that people would at least floss before the come in. This is my life story, keep up the good oral hygiene :)

  2. Hi Nicki,

    I had a hard time with my blog and could not get it working. First time for me.
    Holistic health is so very important. There is much to be said for Eastern medicine and the benefits. A combination of both would be the perfect world however, modern medicine seems to not want to understand much less take advantage of the benefits. Good luck to you on your journey. With fortitude and the drive that you seem to have you shall be able to overcome the pain and move on.
