Healthy Living, Smart Spending with the Boohers

09/28/2025

September flew by! It wasn’t perfect, but I’m calling it progress—more movement (even on days I wanted to just binge a show) and actually resting when my body really needed it.
Small wins count, and I’m celebrating those this month. If you need a little reminder: resting, starting over, or celebrating tiny steps is still moving forward.
So tell me—what’s one win, big or small, you’re proud of from September? Let’s cheer each other on. 💛

Let’s talk inflammation-friendly foods! 💛
When you’re juggling autoimmune struggles, menopause symptoms, and mom-life chaos, what you eat really can make a difference in how your body feels.
Some of the best foods that help fight inflammation are:
✨ Fatty fish like salmon, sardines, or tuna (omega-3s = joint love)
✨ Berries—blueberries, strawberries, blackberries (antioxidant powerhouses)
✨ Leafy greens like spinach, kale, and arugula (nutrient-packed and easy to throw in anything)
✨ Olive oil (heart-healthy and soothing instead of sparking inflammation)
✨ Nuts—walnuts, almonds (perfect for snacking or adding crunch)
✨ Turmeric and ginger (spices with serious healing vibes)
And since busy nights often mean chauffeuring kids around until late, here’s one of my favorite go-to meals that’s anti-inflammatory, delicious, and on the table in 20 minutes:
🥗 One-Pan Salmon & Veggie Bowls
Ingredients:
2 salmon fillets
1 bag pre-cut broccoli or green beans
1 cup cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp garlic powder
1 squeeze lemon juice
Salt & pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400°F (air fryer works too if you’re in a rush).
Toss veggies with olive oil, turmeric, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a sheet pan.
Add salmon fillets, drizzle with olive oil, season, and squeeze fresh lemon on top.
Roast 15–18 minutes until salmon flakes and veggies are tender.
Serve over brown rice or quinoa if you want it heartier.
Dinner = done. Nutritious, anti-inflammatory, and simple enough for even the craziest carpool nights. 🚗💨
💡 Save this so you can find it later when you need a quick, healthy dinner idea!
What’s your go-to busy-night dinner that makes you feel better instead of worse?

Cutting back on caffeine means my mornings look a little different now. Energized has been helping me get through without the crash, and my “wake-up routine” is literally splashing cold water on my face and stretching while my coffee mug glares from the counter.
What’s the one morning habit you can’t skip?

When a flare hits, I have to remind myself that less really is more. My “survival kit” looks like gentle stretching, a heating pad, staying hydrated, and giving myself permission to slow down. Doing less is still doing something, and honestly, sometimes the win is just showing up for yourself in the smallest ways.
One thing that helps on those tougher days is keeping healthy snacks where I can actually see them. A bowl of fruit on the counter, a little container of nuts, or cheese sticks in the fridge. If it’s easy to grab, I’m way less likely to raid the pantry for junk when my body’s already yelling at me.
Flare days aren’t fun, but they definitely don’t get the final word. What’s one thing in your flare-day toolkit that makes life a little easier?

Two quick wins for brain fog that actually help: get outside for some natural light within two hours of waking (even if it’s just standing on the porch in your robe) and eat a protein-forward breakfast like eggs, Greek yogurt, or a quick protein shake.
One more tip that makes a big difference—drink a big glass of water before your coffee. Your brain will thank you for the hydration hit before the caffeine rush.
Brain fog is real with autoimmune and menopause. Some days I feel like I left half my thoughts in another room. These little shifts help me feel more human.
What’s your best brain-boosting shortcut? I’m always looking for suggestions!!
