23rd March 2024 I found answer to:
Why does my energy drop after having breakfast
Why is it getting so hard to get out of the bed even at 9 am when I have been a 6 am bird all my life
Why I am not feeling my usual enthusiasm
Why is my period hurting like a bitch!
When in my annual blood work I found out that my thyroid gland was tired & my brain had to make more Thyroid Stimulating hormone (TSH).
Although it didn’t shock me much, I had been mincing my words, trying to be a good girl, controlling my imagination, ignoring my emotional needs, working out as a punishment to myself in the pursuit of balancing my 2 major new roles of life, a business owner & new bride.
My cortisol levels also came out low, surely my nervous system had been trying to tell me how dis regulated it was with all those late mornings & cravings but i had been ignoring it.
That blood check up became a shake i needed to come back to myself.
As an immediate effect here are a few changes i did:
💕 Apologized to myself & started clearing all the unnecessary things i had been doing physically, emotionally, personally & professionally. (Right from the kind of people I was onboarding as clients & kind of conversations i was indulging in my personal life to the kind of people i was following on social media), curated the algorithm of my life to ensure that only inspiring & energizing things reach me.
Anything that didn’t serve me, made my consciousness contract doesn’t deserve my energy (yes sometimes physically removing these elements is not possible, but can be blocked mentally)
💕Started filling my plate with protein & fiber , stopped dairy & gluten for a while to let my digestion ease out (eating both again now)
💕 Started aligning my life (especially my workouts) as per my period cycle
💕 Made sure to get a lymphatic drainage massage in my luteal phase.
💕 Supplemented on minerals
Within 3 months my energy got back on track, I started becoming more unapologetic like I always was & my enthusiasm got back.
What you see in the image is just a byproduct of all the changes that happened inside.
