My passion for loving had to begin with myself first!! Mind, body, and spirit!

One of my many passions!
I love to make home made everything as much as possible because:
1: I know what goes in it
2: It's fun
3: It's empowering
4: I love to learning
5: New friendships

So let's start with why I love to make raw kefir, kefir is the one of the highest stain content of probiotic out there.. It has over 31 strains of different probiotics.

Now the thing about probiotics is it a live microorganism it breathes it moves and grows. If you by kefir in the stores it's typically pasteurized in which the process kills the live organisms. It goes the same for any vitamin that is not refrigerated.8

That being said some of you may not know the benefits if probiotics, in a nut shell it helps to balance the help bacteria in our digestion. In essence it helps us to be able to digest more efficiently, and for women it has show to be highly effective with balancing out there flora, aiding keeping them PH balanced. In other words Minimizing yeast infection and bacteria infections.

So moving on all raw product contain all the enzymes and healthy bacteria required to digest. When we pasteurize homogenize we not only take out the nutrients but we kill all the "good bacteria and enzymes" which are required to digest them.

The great thing about kefir even if you have dairy issues the fermentation process you will not have digestion issues, actually you will probably have the opposite effect.

Now the great thing about making you own kefir you can also make so many great thing from it as I have shown in my pics, such as kefir cheese which I will be going over tomorrow and whey pure protein!

Have fun play!!!

How Stress Impacts the Microbiome, SIBO, and IMO

  How Stress Impacts the Microbiome, SIBO, and IMO Stress has long been recognized as a driver of imbalance in the human body, but its effects on the gut—and specifically on conditions like Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) and Intestinal Methanogen Overgrowth (IMO)—are profound. Emerging research highlights the intricate relationship between stress, gut health, and these overgrowth conditions, revealing how the gut and brain communicate in ways that significantly influence our well-being. By understanding these mechanisms, we can develop holistic approaches to healing and achieving better gut health. The Role of Stress and the HPA Axis in Gut Health Stress triggers a cascade of physiological responses, largely mediated by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. This central stress-response system regulates the release of cortisol, a hormone designed to help the body respond to stress. However, chronic stress can dysregulate this axis, leading to prolonged elevate...

Colon Hydrotherapy & the Struggle to Educate Conventional Medicine

  Colon Hydrotherapy & the Struggle to Educate Conventional Medicine A call for integration, awareness, and updated clinical understanding By Wendy — Integrative Colon Hydrotherapist, Educator & Author of RYSE From Within: A Guide to Heal Your Gut Introduction: A Growing Divide Despite the growing popularity of integrative therapies and the rise in gut-related disorders, colon hydrotherapy (CHT) continues to face resistance—particularly from conventional and allopathic practitioners. While many clients experience significant improvements in digestion, detoxification, and emotional well-being, physicians often remain dismissive or skeptical. Why? My hypothesis: This resistance stems from (1) outdated medical training, (2) variability in hydrotherapy practices, and (3) misinformation around safety and efficacy. Yet the scientific literature increasingly supports CHT as a gentle, effective method for relieving constipation, improving quality of life, and even...

Where Do Gut Issues Come From

  Where Do Gut Issues Come From Introduction: A Question Without a Simple Answer As a colon hydrotherapist, nutritionist, and educator, one of the most common questions I hear is: “How did I end up with these gut issues?” Constipation, bloating, IBS, inflammation—it often feels like they appeared out of nowhere. But the truth is: gut dysfunction is rarely sudden. It is layered, complex, and influenced by a constellation of physical, emotional, and environmental factors. What I know today as a practitioner may evolve tomorrow. That’s the beauty—and challenge—of science. But what remains constant is this: the gut is the center of our health , and understanding its roots can unlock powerful healing. In this article, I’ll walk you through some of the key contributing factors to gut dysfunction—many of which I explore in my book RYSE From Within: A Guide to Heal Your Gut —and the science behind how they shape our digestive health. 1. Genetics: The Blueprint—but Not the Destiny Som...
