🌞 Soak Up the Summer — Safely! ☀️
Did you know your body makes Vitamin D naturally when your skin is exposed to sunlight? Just 10–20 minutes of morning sun on bare skin (without sunscreen) can boost your levels and support:

✨ Hormone balance
🧠 Mood + mental clarity
🦴 Strong bones
🛡️ Immune resilience

Here's how to stay balanced:
🌤️ Get gentle sun before 11 AM
🥗 Eat vitamin D-rich foods (salmon, egg yolks, mushrooms)
💊 Supplement wisely if needed — test, don’t guess!

💛 Summer is for thriving — not just surviving. If you're feeling sluggish, anxious, or having trouble sleeping, your vitamin D might be low. A simple test can help guide the next best steps for your wellness plan.

🌞 Summer Gut Check 🌿

Bloating after BBQs? Tummy troubles on vacation? 🥴 You’re not alone. Summer can be surprisingly tough on your gut.

Here’s why 👇
🔥 Heat + travel = dehydration, which slows digestion
🍦Cold treats & cocktails can stress the gut lining
🧳 Schedule changes throw off your digestive rhythm

✨ NATUROPATHIC SUMMER GUT TIPS:
🥒 Stay hydrated with mineral-rich water (add a pinch of sea salt + lemon)
🧘🏽‍♀️ Eat mindfully—chew thoroughly, even at pool parties
🌿 Support digestion with bitters or a quality probiotic
🍉 Choose seasonal whole foods that are gentle on your gut

A healthy gut = better energy, mood, skin, and immunity—yes, even in summer 🌸

Your gut doesn’t take a vacation—treat it with care 💛

Why is this happening?

Women, especially mothers, are living under an invisible weight. They carry the emotional and physical labor of raising children, managing households, nurturing relationships, and often working outside the home all without the consistent support of a village. Chronic stress, lack of sleep, poor nutrition, hormone imbalances, and emotional burnout are not just inconveniences they’re triggers for immune dysfunction. Our bodies are designed to protect us, but under unrelenting pressure, that protection turns inward. This is the heartbreak of autoimmunity.

We have created a culture that praises self-sacrifice and over-functioning in women while offering very little in return. Isolation has replaced community. Productivity has replaced rest. Women are expected to hold it all together perfectly, quietly, endlessly. Until their bodies break. The rising tide of autoimmune disease among women isn’t just a medical issue. It’s a social, spiritual, and systemic one. And it’s time we started listening, before it's to late.

Happy Monday from my little piece of earth! My garden is fruitful, and I'm so thankful to be able to grow and share nutritious, homegrown food with my friends and family. This time of year is my absolute favorite 👩‍🌾
Knowing where even some of your food comes from is an amazing benefit to having a home garden, and it's not as hard as you might think! You can start small and let it grow from there 🏡

POV: You come to Dr. Dunn with concerns about hormones, gut health, and food intolerances & she says, "Oh, don't worry. I've got you!"

Over Easter, we had an ENTIRE gluten-free feast. Not to mention, at least half was egg free or dairy free depending on the dish! I tell my patients all the time, do you want what you're used to, or do you want to try to find new options and feel 10 times better? I admit 10 years ago, gluten-free wasn't good. The options were pretty sparse, and it wasn't as widely acknowledged. But now, with the education and recipes available online and the options we have at our fingertips in the stores now, it is possible to "have your cake and eat it too!"🥖🍞🍰

As the seasons shift and spring brings renewal, it’s the perfect time to support your body’s natural detox processes—and an infrared sauna is an incredible tool to do just that!

Here’s why infrared sauna sessions are a spring essential:

✨ Sweat Out Winter Toxins – Infrared heat penetrates deeply, helping to eliminate stored toxins, heavy metals, and impurities.

☀️ Boost Circulation & Lymphatic Flow – Warmer weather means more movement, and infrared heat enhances circulation, reducing puffiness and bloating.

💆🏻‍♀️ Reduce Stress & Support Hormones – The gentle heat soothes the nervous system, lowers cortisol, and supports overall hormone balance.

🌿 Glow from Within – Sweating deeply helps unclog pores and improve skin tone, giving you that fresh, spring glow!

For best results, pair your sauna time with hydration, electrolytes, and mineral-rich foods to replenish what you sweat out.
