There’s a move afoot to do a global Meta blackou

There’s a move afoot to do a global Meta blackout Jan. 19-26. It’s a fast, it’s a boycott, it’s an expression of displeasure and statement of semi-independence from the Zuckerverse. And I’ll be participating. (Mostly.)My intention is to return, because I’ve curated my feed to the point that I get important news here. And I hope that what I post has value to those who follow me.But no social site should be make or break. And in this time of shakeup, well, I’m going to shake things up.And honestly, I need it!In the interim, find me over on Bluesky: Orna.bsky.social.#BlueSky #MetaBoycott #SeeYouNextWeek

Dude, where’s my coffee?I’m thrilled and honored to be on of the experts speaking at @nunm_edu’s upcoming environmental medicine conference on Feb. 1-2.my talk is “Dude, where is my coffee? True stories of plant foods + medicines in the climate crisis.“While the climate crisis has macro-scale effects, it has micro-scale effects, too. For instance, nutrient levels in our food. Or the medicinal compounds in our plant medicines.The conference is approved for 12 hours of continuing education for naturopathic doctors and acupuncturists.Find more information about the conference and the naturopathic climate alliance through the link in my bio, or at NDClimate.org.#ClimateCrisis #FoodInTheClimateCrisis #PlantMedicineInTheClimateCrisis #PlantGeek #HerbalMedicine #HerbalMedicineInTheClimateCrisis #FoodAsMedicineInTheClimateCrisis #NutritionInTheClimateCrisis

I should have posted this last week, or really any time since shooting this in September. But this was absolutely a peak moment of 2024.So let me offer it now as an example of the wonder and joy I wish for us all in 2025, May it spark our hope and bolster our purpose. May we walk more fully into our power.By the way, this was a long, relatively flat and easy trail to hike. But like so many good things, it took a bit to get there. Thanks to @ebluemink for doing proposing this epic roadtrip, and doing nearly all of the driving!#WildAlaska #ElizabethAndOrnasEpicAlaskaRoadTripAdventure2024 #PeakMoments #JoyIsMedicine #OptOutside #NatureFix #NatureCures #AlaskaRange #WalkingInPower #WalkingWithOrna #SparkHope #BolsterPurpose #FuturePlans #2025Aspirations
