Histamine intolerance is a tricky one to pin down, but it all starts with understanding what your triggers and associated symptoms are 📍

And it’s tough when it looks so wildly different from person to person.

Let me compare two real-life examples of histamine reactions to the same trigger:

Person A: drinks 1 glass of red wine and can’t breathe when they wake up the next morning because their sinuses are so congested

Person B: drinks 1 glass of red wine and breaks out in a rash, with red and itchy skin

And those are just different symptoms! Everyone can have different triggers too 🥴

Example: someone might be completely fine drinking bone broth, but exercise sends them into a chronic fatigue spiral, while someone else might feel great exercising but has one sip of bone broth and gets achey sore joints 😵

No two histamine intolerance cases have to look the same. Find out what your symptoms and triggers are unique to you 🕵️

How histamine intolerance might be showing up for you and you might not realize it!

The number of times I hear clients say “I use Reactine every morning!” or “I take Benadryl whenever I eat out” like they’re just throw away comments -

Needing antihistamines to function in the world is 👏🏻not👏🏻 normal!

Health doesn’t have to start with fancy protocols and supplements. Sometimes a few intentional kitchen swaps can make all the difference 🥕

Ever wonder why histamine issues ramped up after 2020? Slide 2 explains why! 👀💉

These 6 slides are the primary drivers of histamine issues I see in my practice - you can have one root cause, or a multitude of them!

Histamine symptoms can include:
✔️ Running nose and congestion
✔️ Flushing red or itchy skin, hives and psoriasis or eczema
✔️ Brain fog, anxiety, depression and irritability
✔️ Joint and nerve pain, swelling of the lower limbs or joints
✔️ Frequent or painful urination
✔️ Leaky blood vessels leading to spider veins, puffiness and water retention
✔️ Vertigo, dizziness and heart rate changes
✔️ Chronic fatigue
✔️ Migraines and headaches
✔️ Insomnia
✔️ Issues with fermented foods, alcohol and leftovers
…just to name a few!

Everyone’s histamine picture looks different.

When I have flares from stress and hormonal fluctuations I tend to have poor sleep, a rapid heart rate which leads to fatigue, and a small patch of rosacea on my cheek.

Have histamine issues? What’re your triggers and symptoms❓

I’ll be continuing my histamine series over the next little while so stay tuned 🤍

My Saturn return just ended and I’m turning 32 this week 🪐

My Saturn return was in Pisces, the major theme of which is being called to turn to inner work in order to transcend personal limitations 🪽

I dove in to that challenge and fully committed myself to daily meditation, not knowing how much of my life was about to transform.

It wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. Those meditations would sometimes surface some dark stuff, my own traumas, fears and unexpected ancestral trauma that needed to be processed.

I had visions of ancestors coming to me, I had physical pain (fear) that needed to move through my abdomen, I had meditations so draining from crying that I couldn’t do anything for the rest of the day.

I had many mystical highs and confusing emotional lows.

What kept me going was getting clear on a vision of what I wanted my life to look like, and how that future Sara felt in her own body in that life. I showed up for her every day even when in the moments where I felt like she was unreachable. I believed whole heartedly that I was transforming my life 🌸

My relationships transformed, my physical body healed and my career exploded. I felt powerful beyond measure, like anything I wanted was attainable. As my external world started to reflect the visions I was having in meditation, my confidence in the work grew and I kept showing up with more purpose and intensity each day.

What originally started with me getting clear on a vision of my future self and trying to move towards her, three years later I’m on the other side and can say that I am her now 🦋

For my clients that have committed to the work it’s been amazing to witness their lives and health transform too 🪞

Life is incredible and we all have magic within us to create the life of our dreams. I feel like part of my mission as a coach and on this earth is to help others see that same potential within themselves.

Thanks for reading ✌️ I made a list of some other downloads I had over the years through doing this work and posted it in the comments below👇

I am on a polyester boycott kick lately, so I wanted to share the research! 💪🏻

And look, the health influencers who are out there saying you need to completely overhaul your wardrobe aren’t being realistic. A lot of people are not in the financial place to do so. You also don’t have to go extreme and buy organic cotton over regular cotton 👗

HOWEVER, you can start making informed choices TODAY ✅

Prioritize things. Are you trying to get pregnant or aim to be within the next year? Start with swapping out more of your underwear for organic textiles (men and women!) 🤰

Do you workout a ton and are sweating in polyester plastic clothing? Start investing in a couple of workout pieces that are polyester free. 🥵

For me personally, I’ve pulled some polyester clothing and donated/sold it on marketplace and am gradually investing in more cotton and linen pieces. (Aerie has some great and affordable summer clothing in their line, just be sure to check the product details before purchasing.)

I also had to spend more time while I was rug hunting the other day to find one that didn’t have any poly fibres. It took forever and there was only 1 rug out of 20 that was natural fibres (🤪), but it was so worth it! I could smell the plastic fumes coming off the poly rugs and could only imagine what that would do to my health in a confined space.

Do you look at your textile labels? 🧐

In honour of spring being right around the corner…🌸

This season always excites me, while simultaneously shining a light on the things that are no longer serving me.

This year the theme has been cutting back on my daily tasks so I can have more capacity and freedom to show up in my business in ways that inspire me. There’s been some big changes lately but they all feel very exciting and freeing!

Do any of these resonate with you? 🩷
