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

We are looking to add testimonials to our website~ please share your experience working with us.

Understanding Motility and Prokinetics in Gut Health

Understanding Motility and Prokinetics in Gut Health Introduction to Gut Motility Gut motility refers to the movement of contents through the digestive tract, primarily driven by a coordinated series of muscle contractions. These contractions, known as peristalsis, propel feces through the colon and eventually out of the body. Optimal gut motility is essential for nutrient absorption, digestion, and waste elimination. When motility is impaired, it can lead to conditions such as constipation, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction. This article unpacks motility, explores the concept of prokinetics, examines natural and dietary sources that stimulate gut motility, and reviews the current literature on this critical topic in gastroenterology. What Are Prokinetics? Prokinetics are substances—whether pharmaceutical, herbal, or dietary—that enhance gastrointestinal motility by stimulating the smooth muscles of the gut. By improving motility, they help ...

The Digestive Superfoods: Spirulina vs. Chlorella and Their Impact on Constipation

The Digestive Superfoods: Spirulina vs. Chlorella and Their Impact on Constipation When it comes to natural remedies for improving digestive health, spirulina and chlorella have captured attention for their powerful nutrient profiles and potential health benefits. Both of these algae-based superfoods have been highlighted not only for their ability to detoxify the body but also for their potential impact on one specific issue—a common yet troublesome condition, constipation. But how exactly do these nutrient-dense microalgae contribute to easing constipation? And are they truly effective in promoting a healthy gut? Below, we break down the science behind spirulina and chlorella and what they offer for digestive health. Understanding Constipation and Its Root Causes Constipation, a condition characterized by less frequent bowel movements or difficulty passing stool, affects millions worldwide. While occasional constipation is normal, chronic constipation ca...

Unlocking the Potential of Akkermansia: A Gut Health Revolution

Unlocking the Potential of Akkermansia: A Gut Health Revolution What Is the Microbiome? The human microbiome is a complex ecosystem of trillions of microorganisms living in and on our body, particularly within the gut. These microbes—comprising bacteria, fungi, viruses, and archaea—not only assist in digesting food but also play crucial roles in immunity, mood regulation, and overall health. Among these microscopic allies is Akkermansia muciniphila (often referred to as "Akkermansia"), a bacterium now gaining significant attention for its profound impact on gut health. What Is Akkermansia? Akkermansia muciniphila is a gram-negative, anaerobic bacterium discovered in 2004. It makes up roughly 3% of the total gut microbiota in healthy individuals and primarily resides in the mucus layer of the intestinal lining. Its unique trait lies in its ability to break down mucin—a key protein in the gut's mucus layer—making it essential for maintaining gut barrier function and pro...
