February Newletter

February 

What does February mean to you?

It means implementation, acknowledgment of black history month, and Love. I am falling back in love with myself, with humanity, and with the process.

The past couple of years has been challenging, as I am sure we all can relate.  I think back to my ancestors and the civil war and what we have fought for as a collective; it inspires me, and at times we are unique, yet we are not. We have all endured challenges and tragedies, and we can all bond.

Love doesn’t always feel like love. It feels like discipline, followed by results, that for me, feel like accomplishments.  I think the second part is perceptions; I usually see the world as a glass half full or as an optimist, waking up excited for the world, and choosing to take responsibility for myself. There tend to be two types of camps. People whom things happen to and another camp that makes things happen. I believe reality is somewhere in the middle; however, I lean a little more toward the right of these two camps, which for me is self-agency.

Love to me is continuously changing, embracing unconditional for self and others. Regarding my health, it is my responsibility, and I can do a lot to change my trajectory. I love myself through the process, listening to myself and knowing when to be extra kind and when to push.

Being a coach has been one of my most prominent teachers, loving people how they want and need to be loved. Supporting people through their process and not always having to fix, there is a fine line between guidance and fixing. Sometimes, it is as simple as being honest and truthful.

I love what I do, I love Poop, and I love learning about health and digestion. I would not want to do anything other than what I do; I feel blessed to have created a job that I wake up daily excited to go to work!

We have many changes within our shop currently; we are bringing on another therapist this month. We are also adding another open system.  We opened the shop earlier for you early birds Tuesday through Thursday. It will be ready to go in the middle of the month.  My book will be released this month, and we will launch the Heal your Gut Workshop in May!

Loving you all

What Are Electrolytes and How Do They Affect Your Digestion?

What Are Electrolytes and How Do They Affect Your Digestion? We've all heard that electrolytes are essential for staying hydrated, especially during intense physical activities. But these essential minerals do more than just help us replenish fluids. They are also important for regulating nerve and muscle function, balancing pH levels, and aiding in digestion. So, what exactly are electrolytes, and how do they affect your digestion? In this post, we will explore these essential minerals and their importance in maintaining a healthy digestive system. Firstly, let's define what electrolytes are. Electrolytes are charged minerals that conduct electrical impulses in our body, helping to regulate various functions. Electrolytes are primarily found in bodily fluids like blood, sweat, and urine. Some of the most important electrolytes include sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and chloride. Now, let's talk about how electrolytes affect your digestion. Elect

The Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems

The Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems Understanding the human body involves understanding the systems that keep it functioning optimally. Two of these systems are the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which are integral parts of the autonomic nervous system. They ensure the body's internal functions run smoothly and adapt to various situations - whether we're calm and relaxed or facing a stressful event. The sympathetic nervous system, often referred to as our 'fight or flight' response, kicks into gear during times of stress, increasing heart rate and blood pressure, while diverting blood flow from non-essential functions like digestion to more critical tasks. This can result in slowed digestion and alterations in the gut microbiome. Conversely, the parasympathetic nervous system, or our 'rest and digest' response, predominates in times of relaxation. This system promotes digestion by stimulating the production of digestive enzyme

Histamines: How They Impact Digestion

Histamines: How They Impact Digestion Histamines are molecules that play an important role in our immune system. They are responsible for triggering an inflammatory response to protect us from harmful foreign substances. However, histamines can also have a negative impact on our digestive system if they are not properly regulated. In this blog post, we will be shedding light on the truth about histamines, what they are, and how they can affect your digestion. We will also discuss ways to manage histamine levels to improve gastrointestinal health. As mentioned, histamines are a natural component of the immune system. They are produced by mast cells, which are found in various tissues, including the gastrointestinal tract. When the body encounters a potential threat, such as an allergen or pathogen, mast cells release histamines into the bloodstream. This causes the blood vessels to dilate and increases blood flow to the affected area, leading to swelling, redness, and oth
