Tomorrow is World Menopause Day, and we want to open the conversation.

We see women every day who feel like their bodies are changing overnight — mood swings, poor sleep, stubborn weight, anxiety, low libido — and no one ever explained why.

You deserve real answers and a plan that honors what your body is going through. With the right support, this transition can be smooth, empowered, & full of vitality.

💬 Have questions about perimenopause or menopause? Drop them below (or send a DM if you’d prefer to keep it anonymous)- let’s talk about what’s really happening inside your body.

Even as a Functional Medicine provider, I’m not immune to stress.
Running a private practice, being an entrepreneur, a mom, a wife, fitting in protein, movement, and sleep… all while navigating this crazy world we live in—it impacts me too.

And if you’re working with a provider who pretends they have it all figured out and aren’t a work in progress themselves… 🚩 run away.

One of the most powerful tools I’ve added to my own health toolbox is down-regulating breathwork with .travers . It’s been a game-changer for calming my nervous system, building resilience, and actually feeling grounded in the chaos.

We may even be collaborating on a breathwork event soon 👀.
Interested? Send us a DM, and we’ll keep you in the loop.

Your provider should be walking the walk with you—not pretending stress doesn’t exist.

Most people think cardio = the best way to stay healthy… and lifting weights is just for “getting toned.”

But here’s the real truth:
💪 MUSCLE is the key to a stronger metabolism, better energy, and long-term health.

💪 Muscle supports blood sugar balance, hormone health, longevity, and helps you feel more energized day to day.
It’s not just about how you look—it’s about how your body functions.

💪 Muscle is your metabolic engine.

Swipe the images to learn:
- Why building muscle matters for overall health
- How it supports metabolism, energy, and aging well
- Simple ways to build & maintain it (even with a full schedule)

Were you surprised muscle plays this big of a role in your health?

Tired. Wired. Running on caffeine and willpower?
That used to be me—until I discovered Yoga Nidra.

It’s not traditional yoga. There are no poses, no stretching—just a guided meditation you do lying down that takes you into a state between wakefulness and sleep.

The science is impressive:
- Cortisol can drop up to 40%
- Boosts deep sleep brain waves while you’re still awake
- 20–30 minutes can feel like 2–3 hours of deep sleep
- Enhances neuroplasticity—helping your brain rewire toward focus and resilience

The best part? It’s easy. No equipment. No special skills. Just you, a quiet space, and the willingness to press play.

It’s become my personal go-to reset—helping me (and many of my patients) recharge, calm the mind, and support hormone balance in under half an hour.

✨ Send us a DM if you’d like our FREE Yoga Nidra Resource Guide so you can try it for yourself and start feeling the benefits.

Thinking about swapping your coffee for matcha?

Here’s why many people are making the switch:

☕ Coffee:
- Quick caffeine spike
- Energy crash & jitters
- Can raise cortisol (stress hormone)
- Short-term alertness

🍵 Matcha:
- Sustained Energy – Matcha’s caffeine + L-theanine combo gives you alertness without the jitters or crash.
- Calm Focus – Supports concentration while keeping stress hormones balanced.
- Antioxidant Powerhouse – Matcha contains EGCG, linked to improved metabolism, reduced inflammation, and even longevity.
- Gut & Hormone Friendly – Less acidity than coffee and gentler on your adrenals.

💬 Have you tried matcha?

Vitamin D is more than a vitamin—it's a hormone-like nutrient that touches almost every system in your body. Yet most of us are running low.

Low Vitamin D might be your body’s first whisper that something is off: stress, inflammation, immune dysfunction, or poor nutrient absorption.

In functional medicine, we don’t just throw a supplement at it—we ask why.
- What’s causing your body to run low in the first place?
- We uncover the root and support your system holistically—not just mask a deficiency.

At Elevate, we look beyond the number to create a plan that actually achieves long term wellness.

It’s not too late to join our July Breathwork Challenge!
We’re halfway through the month — but there’s still time to build a habit that your nervous system will thank you for.

All it takes:
➡️ 5 slow breaths
➡️ Twice a day
➡️ Just a few quiet moments that no one even needs to know you’re doing

This is your permission to pause.
Your breath is always with you — and it just might be your most powerful tool for resilience, clarity, and healing.

You don’t just wake up one day with a chronic illness…
You’ve been building it for decades.

🫀 That heart attack at 60 that stopped life in its tracks
→ Started at 30 with unmanaged stress, high blood sugar, and silent inflammation.

🧠 That Alzheimer’s diagnosis at 70 that robbed your memories and independence
→ Started at 40 with years of poor sleep, processed food, insulin resistance, and no one addressing your brain health.

🦴 That hip fracture at 80 that landed you in a nursing home and led to rapid decline
→ Started at 35 when bone loss began silently. No symptoms. No warnings. Just slow, steady weakening.

💉 That type 2 diabetes at 50 that now controls your meals, your energy, your vision
→ Started at 25 with blood sugar rollercoasters, nutrient-depleted food, and skipped meals that never felt like a big deal… until they were.

Functional medicine doesn’t wait for symptoms to scream. It listens when your body whispers.

We ask:
- How’s your blood sugar really doing?
- Are you sleeping deeply enough to detox your brain?
- Are your bones silently weakening?
- Is your metabolism struggling under the radar?

Because what you do in your 30s and 40s writes the story of your 60s, 70s, and beyond. Every choice you make is either pushing you toward chronic illness…
or pulling you toward lifelong vitality.

“Your labs are normal.”
But… you don’t feel normal. You’re tired, bloated, moody, wired at night, crashing mid-day, or just not quite you.

👉 Normal doesn’t mean optimal.
👉 Normal doesn’t mean nothing is going on.
👉 Normal doesn’t mean you stop asking questions.

Functional medicine is about digging deeper—asking why you feel off, even when the labs say you’re “fine.” You know your body better than any lab range ever could.

Be curious.
Advocate for yourself.
Work with a practitioner who listens, looks beyond the basics, and helps you uncover the root cause.

You deserve more than “you’re fine.” You deserve to feel your BEST.

Let’s test instead of guess — and use real data to guide your path to optimal health.

Every 4–6 months, I get my own functional labs done — because optimal health starts with knowing exactly what’s going on before symptoms even show up.
⠀
As a provider, I’m always telling patients: it’s not just about getting beneath the symptoms, it’s about tracking changes over time so we can optimize in real time — and prevent instead of wait.
⠀
Functional labs give us that full-body snapshot: hormones, inflammation, nutrient status, gut health, and more. It’s how we catch the small shifts before they become big problems.
⠀
Your energy, mood, sleep, weight, and focus are all connected — and the labs tell us why.

Test instead of guess!

📩 DM us to get started or to learn more about functional lab testing and personalized care. Your health deserves a deeper look.

Spring allergies got you sneezing, foggy, and itchy-eyed?
Your histamine response may be in overdrive—let’s get to the root.

Instead of masking symptoms with over-the-counter meds, functional medicine takes a whole-body approach to reduce inflammation and support immune balance.

Top Supplement Pick: D-Hist
This powerful blend includes Quercetin + NAC—a natural duo that stabilizes mast cells and helps your body reduce histamine, the trigger behind your allergy symptoms. Bonus: no drowsy side effects.

Root-Cause Allergy Tips:
- Hydrate to flush allergens & support detox
- Use a nasal rinse after outdoor exposure
- Add HEPA filters to improve air quality
- Reduce stress—cortisol spikes worsen inflammation
- Avoid high-histamine foods (wine, aged cheese, fermented foods)

Severe allergies? You likely have a gut imbalance driving this response. Fixing this means better overall health and minimal seasonal allergy symptoms each season.

Save this to build your seasonal allergy toolkit—and DM us if you want a link to the D-Hist supplement!

Your health is NOT a hobby—it’s the foundation of everything you do.

Too often, we treat health like an optional side project—something we’ll "get to" when life slows down. But the truth? Your energy, your mental clarity, your ability to show up for your family, your work, and yourself all depend on your health.

✔️ Prioritizing movement isn’t a hobby—it’s longevity.
✔️ Eating nutrient-dense foods isn’t a trend—it’s fuel.
✔️ Managing stress isn’t a luxury—it’s essential.
✔️ Optimizing sleep isn’t indulgent—it’s necessary.

You don’t need a “perfect” plan. You need consistency. Treat your health like the non-negotiable it is, and watch how every other area of your life levels up.
