🌿 WE MISSED YOU YESTERDAY 💛! If you weren’t able to make the Holistic Hormone Happy 😊 Hour yesterday, you were missed 💛 We covered something really powerful: 👉 Why you literally cannot be grateful and anxious at the same time👉 How this shifts your nervous system, lowers cortisol, supports hormone balance and reduces brain fog 👉 In fact we reviewed a study that demonstrated that sleep was longer, less interrupted and even improved daytime functioning. We also looked at how cortisol and DHEA cannot exist in balance together — meaning your body is either in stress mode or healing mode ✨ Good news: I’ve added the full Mini Class + Guided Worksheet to the Classroom: 👉 Self-Healing Tools Course You’ll find:✔ The full breakdown✔ The 7-Day Gratitude Reset practice✔ A downloadable worksheet to guide you step-by-step 🔒 Access Reminder The Self-Healing Tools Course is part of your Premium Membership If you’re on the free plan, this is exactly the kind of resource waiting for you inside: ✨ Practical tools you can use daily✨ Science-backed strategies✨ Step-by-step guidance 👉 All for just $9/month 📅 Looking Ahead I’d love to see more of you live next time — these FREE COACHING sessions are where the real shifts happen. 👉 Once the next session is posted on the calendar,please add it to your personal calendar right away That one step makes all the difference.

✨ Holistic Hormone Happy 😊 Hour – This Thursday (Tomorrow, April 2) How has your anxiety been lately… really? Not just occasional stress —but that constant underlying tension…racing thoughts at night…feeling like your body just won’t calm down. I just released a new video where I break down something that surprised even me when I looked at the research: 👉 You cannot be grateful and anxious at the same time. Not just emotionally — biologically. Gratitude actually: ✔ Lowers cortisol ✔ Activates your calming nervous system ✔ Supports hormone balance, sleep, and brain function I’ve seen this shift happen quickly — even within a few days — when applied the right way. 💛 So this Thursday, April 2, we’re going deeper together: 🌿 Holistic Hormone Happy 😊 Hour This will be a relaxed, supportive group session. ✨ Come as you are. No pressure. Even just listening in can create a shift. 📅 Check the calendar for the link and time (10:00 AM EDT, 4:00 PM CEST) If you’ve been feeling off, overwhelmed, or just not quite yourself lately…this is a beautiful place to start 💛

Whether it's weight challenges, eating too many carbs🍩, not eating enough fiber - most of us have challenges where food is concerned. We may have grown up in a household that ate alot of fried foods and that reminds us of home. Or maybe burgers and fries have been your go to fast food meal when you don't have time to cook. Or making a bowl of popcorn 🍿 after a long day. I've seen it all! It's difficult to admit, but I will tell you my own story: when I was under severe stress in graduate school and isolated from family and friends - I found myself bingeing everyday on ice cream. Ice cream was my comfort food. Unfortunately, or fortunately, it eventually made me so sick I couldn't eat anything. I had horrible gastrointestinal problems followed by a raging fever of over 104 degrees for days. I could barely move to take care of basic needs. I was pretty 🤮 sick! Somehow, I made it through and once I recovered I had no desire to eat ice cream anymore LOL! Years later, I read a story about a small NC town (I think was Ashevile) during the polio epidemic that had an ice cream shop that closed down during the epidemic. The town reduced it's polio cases but noone knows for sure if reducing sugar intake was involved. Dr. Benjamin Sandler, a town doctor, was firmly convinced and research does now support that overconsumption of sugar does lower immunity. Many times we know what we are doing - but still can't stop. My new series on the 10 hormones involved with weight loss and aging highlights some of the reasons willpower is not the solution for many of us and why it is worse for women.
