Tis the season of everyone getting sick ๐Ÿค’

I just want to give everyone a reminder in case weโ€™ve forgotten, winter has been and will always the season of sickness.

When I was in college (pre C), I was notoriously sick every November to March. Always had a cough and the sniffles.

Looking back, Iโ€™m not surprised my immune system sucked. I was taking antibiotics yearly, binge drinking every weekend, eating like crap, was taking hormonal birth control, and based off of that likely had MANY nutrient deficiencies.

The BEST way to prevent getting sick in the first place, TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!!! Do the fundamentals of health on a consistent basis.

If and when you do inevitably get sick, this protocol is what I do and recommend to my clients!

Which suggestion are you going to try next time you get sick?!

Dear 2021,

You were painfully beautiful. I fell on my knees to cry and praise as many times as I fell on my knees to cry and ask why.

I learned to completely let go and give all faith to you, God.

I leaned on your comfort and strength when I didnโ€™t have any of my own.

I know this year has brough me closer to you and your kingdom. Iโ€™m forever grateful for that.

Thank you God and the Holy Spirit for giving me so many confirmations that although times are hard, youโ€™re carrying me.

I love you โค๏ธ

Swipe to see some photos I never posted this year, including the massive parasite ๐Ÿชฑ I passed. Allllll the emotions this year ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿฅฐ starting with post concussion photos and taking you through the rest of the year.

These photos remind me that even though this year was challenging, there were so many beautiful moments โค๏ธ

Gratitude is a choice. A choice I choose to make every morning when I wake up.

โ€œGod thank you for giving me another dayโ€ as I give Stella her morning kisses ๐Ÿฅฐ even on days I wake up not feeling well, days Iโ€™m depressed and donโ€™t want to get out of bed, I thank god for this day.

Starting that habit has truly made a massive difference in my quality of life. This life weโ€™ve been given is a blessing in and of itself. The Bible teaches that Godโ€™s grace is so dang good that no one really deserves it, yet he gives us all of this anyway and loves us so โค๏ธ

My point in this post, being grateful isnโ€™t something to practice once a year, but an everyday choice you get to make.

Here are a couple things Iโ€™m feeling overwhelming grateful for after this weekend:
- time away from my phone
- both mine & sams intermediate families plus the little family weโ€™re building together โค๏ธ
- the fact that both sam and I turned out all right after our terrible decision making when we were younger ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜… thank you Lord
- peppermint tea for when my stomach hurts while traveling ๐Ÿฅฒ
- growing up in a family that taught me to challenge opinions and think for myself
And so so so much more โค๏ธ

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving full of love ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

Your anxiety & depression can improve without changing up your medication.

Iโ€™ve had two clients within the past 6months who prior to working together, were having panic attacks on a weekly basis.

Panic attacks that left them scared, not wanting to go into public settings, and even more anxious they would have another attack.

Through HMHL coaching, we worked on balancing diet to support neurotransmitter production, doing daily stress management techniques, and finding underlying root causes for their anxiety.

A few months in, both clients have gone weeks without any anxiety. One of them started the process of getting off his medication ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ

My point here, if you deal with anxiety, youโ€™re not alone. Thereโ€™s more of us out there than you think.

And thereโ€™s more options than just medication to improve your symptoms, thatโ€™s where HMHL steps in.

DM me to learn more โค๏ธ

If you didnโ€™t spend so much of your energy focused on changing your body & figuring out what diet to go onโ€ฆ imagine all of the beautiful things you could do in your life with that energy.

If youโ€™re stuck. Why spend another 5-10 years of your life being stuck.

Make the decision to get help, buy your time back, & donโ€™t turn back.

Please take the time to read these amazing words about women & share with the women in your life you love. Unsure who wrote this, but thank you for your amazing words ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ

โ€œWhen God created woman he was working late on the 6th day.......

An angel came by and asked." Why spend so much time on her?"

The lord answered. "Have you seen all the specifications I have to meet to shape her?"

She must function on all kinds of situations,
She must be able to embrace several kids at the same time,
Have a hug that can heal anything from a bruised knee to a broken heart,
She must do all this with only two hands,"
She cures herself when sick and can work 18 hours a day"

THE ANGEL was impressed" Just two hands.....impossible!

And this is the standard model?"

The Angel came closer and touched the woman"
"But you have made her so soft, Lord".
"She is soft", said the Lord,
"But I have made her strong. You can't imagine what she can endure and overcome"

"Can she think?" The Angel asked...
The Lord answered. "Not only can she think, she can reason and negotiate"

The Angel touched her cheeks....
"Lord, it seems this creation is leaking! You have put too many burdens on her"
"She is not leaking...it is a tear" The Lord corrected the Angelโ€ฆ

"What's it for?" Asked the Angel..... .
The Lord said. "Tears are her way of expressing her grief, her doubts, her love, her loneliness, her suffering and her pride."...

This made a big impression on the Angel,
"Lord, you are a genius. You thought of everything.
A woman is indeed marvellous"

Lord said."Indeed she is.
She has strength that amazes a man.
She can handle trouble and carry heavy burdens.
She holds happiness, love and opinions.
She smiles when she feels like screaming.
She sings when she feels like crying, cries when happy and laughs when afraid.
She fights for what she believes in.

Her love is unconditional.
Her heart is broken when a next-of-kin or a friend dies but she finds strength to get on with life"

The Angel asked: So she is a perfect being?
The lord replied: No. She has just one drawback
"She often forgets what she is worth".โ€

The diagnosis IBS doesnโ€™t mean jacksh*t other than youโ€™ve got symptom.

You already knew that or you wouldnโ€™t have asked for help in the first place.

To be diagnosed with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, you need two of these three symptoms at least 1 day a week for the last three months
โ–ช๏ธpain & discomfort when ๐Ÿ’ฉ
โ–ช๏ธfrequency of ๐Ÿ’ฉ is altered
โ–ช๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฉ consistency is altered

Based on these symptoms, do you fit that description? Comment below a โœ‹๐Ÿผ if thatโ€™s you

IBS, similar to PCOS, is a syndrome. A characteristic of symptomsโ€ฆ not the pathophysiology (root cause) of WHY you have discomfort in the first place.

Itโ€™s commonly your diagnosis when celiac is negative and colonoscopy & endoscopy come up clean.

In my practice, we use functional medicine stool testing to get to the root cause of your IBS. Plus changes in diet & lifestyle habits to help you heal! Collaboration with doctors may also be used if needed.

No more assuming youโ€™re invited to suffer for life with an IBS diagnosis.

There are reasons why you have IBS, we just need to find them, treat them, and set up amazing habits so you stay symptom free!

Last Fourth of July, I told a client that her mindset going into the holiday would make or break the day.โฃ
โฃ
If you go into the holiday with the thoughts of โ€œ๐™›*๐™˜๐™  ๐™ž๐™ฉ. Iโ€™m going to eat until iโ€™m stuffed and get plastered.โ€
Guess what will happen?โฃ
โฃ
You bet youโ€™re going to do exactly that.โฃ
โฃ
If you shift your mindset to, โฃ
โฃ
โ€œI can eat balanced over the holiday. I can drink alcohol, have a good time, and not over do it.โ€โฃ
โฃ
You are going to do exactly that. And she did.โฃ
โฃ
Last Fourth of July, I decided to do a similar experiment with myselfโ€ฆ coach Kels practices what she preaches yโ€™all ๐Ÿ˜‚โฃ
โฃ
Could I really enjoy the lake party without getting too sh*tfaced and regretting it the next day?โฃ
โฃ
We were up at diamond lake, which if you know anything about the diamond lake partyโ€ฆ itโ€™s notorious for being wild and covid did not stop the festivities.โฃ
โฃ
I told myself the same things I tell my clients. I brought balanced snacks with me, made sure to eat during the day to prevent a night time binge, drink water, and still let loose.โฃ
โฃ
I had the best Fourth of July and followed through with the balanced mindset I went into it with.โฃ
โฃ
I want you to know,โฃ
โฃ
The place youโ€™re at right now with feeling like youโ€™re either doing amazing or failing miserably with your wellness goals, doesnโ€™t have to continue.โฃ
โฃ
You are capable of learning to change your mindset + live a healthy life free from restrictive diets.โฃ
โฃ
I hope you have an amazing fourth + go into it with the โ€œ๐™„ ๐™œ๐™ค๐™ฉ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™ž๐™จโ€ attitudeโฃ

Your deep sense of knowing the next step for you in life.โฃ
โฃ
A sense of peace where the opinions of others really donโ€™t matter because you just know youโ€™re making the right choice.โฃ
โฃ
The moment I started unlocking my intuition was the moment I started feeling more confident in myself.โฃ
โฃ
My anxiety also decreased rapidlyโฃ
โฃ
And it started from listening to that gut feeling telling me to make a hard decisionโฃ
โฃ
Now, I donโ€™t go on a diet or start a new exercise program to feel more confident.โฃ

Instead, ๐™„ ๐™ก๐™ค๐™ค๐™  ๐™ฌ๐™ž๐™ฉ๐™๐™ž๐™ฃ ๐™ข๐™ฎ๐™จ๐™š๐™ก๐™›. I journal, meditate, spend time in nature, and live in the present moment.โฃ

Iโ€™m the most confident Iโ€™ve ever been in my life and it isnโ€™t a reflection on what my body looks like.โฃ
