Tougher Than POTS

✨ The simplest habit that can change your health: WALKING ✨

You don’t need fancy workouts or equipment. It’s all about just getting started on moving every day, and walking is the perfect place to start. Start with as much as you can and slowly build up 💪🏻

Here’s what a daily walk can do for your body:

💓 Strengthens your heart and stabilize blood pressure
🧠 Boosts mood, focus, and mental clarity
⚖️ Helps manage weight + balance blood sugar
🌙 Improves sleep and lowers stress hormones
🦵 Builds strong muscles, bones, and joints
💧 Supports lymphatic drainage + detox
💪 Strengthens your immune system
🧘‍♀️ Calms your nervous system and regulates energy
🧬 Balance hormones and support thyroid/adrenal health

Walking daily has been one of the most important things I have done for my health. It was so hard at first, but now my body craves it and I really feel it if I miss a day.

I started in the mist of a POTS flare hardly being able to walk down my hallway, and now I’m doing 1-2 miles a day.

I walk on my walking pad, on our road, or go to trails.

Whatever it looks like for you at first, is a WIN for your health!

You can start today — no gym, no stress, just one step at a time. 🩵

Just incredible 💙💙💙

Our clocktower is shining tonight as we and raise awareness during Dysautonomia Awareness Month.

This is all so true. Our bodies are constantly talking to us. We just need to know how to listen 💙 Addressing root causes changed my whole life and how I look at health.

The body provides sooooo many clues… if we’re willing to listen. 🩷😉

P.s. not medical advice, not 100% diagnostic but please do find a good provider who will comb over you with a fine toothed proverbial comb. Because you’re worth it! 😀

Do you do things to regulate your nervous system?

The vagus nerve is your body’s chill button-regulating heart rate, digestion, mood and inflammation. 
 
Having seen tens of thousands of labs over the past 16 years of people around the world I’ve seen what works and what doesn’t when it comes to health and lab optimization. 
 
People with autoimmune issues, hormone imbalances fertility problems, digestive problems, anxiety, depression, brain fog and fatigue have to have both-and, not either-or approach to heal and optimize. As much as we implement tools like peptides, food protocols, natural medicines for our telehealth patients, we always “prescribe” mind-body somatic practices like the ones on this list to improve vagal tone.

This is so true. This is why my mission is to spread hope that we ARE tougher than POTS 💪🏻💙 You need hope. You need connection. You need peace for your nervous system to be able to heal. The mind and body connection is a real thing.

What are you doing to help keep a positive mindset?

Curious on everyone’s thoughts with this? Very interesting take on the connection of MCAS and POTS!

I know I shared this the other day but doing it again so hopefully even more people will see it. I wish would have learned this YEARS ago 🤦🏼‍♀️

Symptoms are always caused my something. Not happens without reason. Simple cause and effect.

Addressing the root causes of illness treats symptoms from the bottom up instead of just covering them with temporary treatments.

It’s been a total game changer for my health starting to look at the body like this!

POTS, EDS, MCAS… ALL getting releif 🤯🙌🏼🥹

If you feel stuck with never ending treatments and bandaids, this could be your answer too!!

Rise/Source/REVRS addresses every single one of these things in one easy drink a day. Formulated by fucntional meditation doctors to address root causes, designed to be easy and affordable.

It all goes so much deeper than I ever realized. Symptoms and illness don’t just happen. They all have a cause. Going deep and addressing these causes is a total game changer. It’s how myself and so many others finally got our POTS and other illnesses in complete remission.

It’s worth looking into. It could change your whole life 🙌🏼

This page seems to have a lot of good information! This one specifically would be perfect for POTS! Improve blood circulation with no positional changes 🙌🏼

Your health can be redeemed ✨🙌🏼

In January I wasn’t able to walk from our room to kitchen without needing to lay down (and we have a very small house 🤪) and needed to go back on a high dose beta blocker to stay out of the hospital. I wasn’t functioning and hit rock bottom again… My cardiologist tried to tell me I needed to go on more medications and maybe even go back on in home oxygen. I just looked at her and said “This CANNOT happen again. I have three little kids at home.”

Now, I’m walking 1-2 miles a day plus muscle exercises and functioning with ENERGY through my day. I have been off my beta blocker since March and am medication free again 🙌🏼

It took a lot of prayers and hard work, but just wanted to encourage you. I know my story isn’t necessarily exactly like yours, but this is the second time I have got my POTS going into remission and I have met others than have been able to go the same. Your health is redeemable. Your life is redeemable. No one is a lost cause. Don’t loose faith or give up hope ♥️

Hello everyone!! ✨

So, I have been wanting to do a live video for weeks since I messaged with a few of you regarding some posts that I did, but we have been traveling and I just haven’t had a quiet moment being with our three kids in close quarters to do it 🤪😂

I really wanted to do the live video so it would be more personal than just another post and you could all really hear my heart behind this, but I just don’t see how I’m going to be able to do that until we make our way back home.

I posted a few times about some things I have learned about my POTS over the last few months (search my name to find them!) and plan on posting more as well. I have learned more about my POTS and related diagnoses in the last six months than I have in the last 15 years since it all started. It’s been so eye opening and I have just been feeling pulled to share it in hopes that something I have learned would help someone else.

My original dilemma in sharing everything was that I knew not everyone could afford to go through specialized testing with functional medicine MDs and/or naturopath doctors along with buying the hundreds of dollars worth of supplements they would prescribe (we struggled paying for it ourselves). Not to mention it would me hard for me to know if the resources near you would be as good as the ones I have found near me. I was truly praying for an answer to this. I didn’t want to feel like I was sharing something with no solution.

Well, this is where Frequense came in. My friend is with the company and is also friends with one of the functional medicine medical professionals with them. I was getting better with all the new help and knowledge I had, but felt like I still had MONTHS before I would be fully out of the pit I was in. She convinced me to just try it. I was skeptical because I was already paying for the top brands in supplements, IV treatments, NAD shots, etc. I really didn’t think there was anyway this one thing would help me more than all of that, but it did! Within a few days 60% of my symptoms were gone and I have only continued to get better since starting it!!

I have tried many products over the years and even have been with another company is the past and although things helped, I never saw them as worthy of posting about in this group. This group means so much to me and I never wanted to come across like I was using it to make money. I started this group 15 years ago and that was never my intent. Even when I raised money with the public page that I ran as a nonprofit for a few years, I donated every cent raised to research. I say all this to try and show you my true heart intention is to really help people struggling like I was.

In my previous posts I was trying not to make this the focus and make what I learned be the focus because I didn’t want to come across “salesy”, but some of you told me you would actually prefer me to be more direct about what I’m trying to promote. So, this is me being direct 😆

I so desperately want everyone with health conditions to just TRY this!! I can’t even begin to describe the relief I have felt. I am off my beta blocker, my heart feels better than it ever has, I have lasting energy, I’m working out daily, and just overall feel SO GOOD compared to where I was just a few months ago. I was actually so bad we almost canceled this trip we are currently on, but I have been keeping up the whole time!

I have also now been able to have friends and talk to others with POTS and similar conditions also getting relief taking this!! I really don’t know how I could NOT share this knowing it could help you!

This isn’t just another product. It was formulated and is perscriped by functional medicine MDs and NDs and really has helped thousands of people. It’s like getting the treatment discounted and skipping the appointments.

Since I’m an affiliate (like what Amazon does with referring people with links), if I help you and you don’t feel any relief in 30 days, I promise I will help you get your money back. I have yet to meet someone this hasn’t helped, but I want you to know that is an option. I’m not trying to get money out of you. I’m just wanting you to try this to see if it helps.

You can try it for 20% off for their memorial day sale that ends TODAY. If it doesn’t work, you get your money back. Literally nothing to lose to at least TRY it!! I’m here to help you through your journey ♥️

Comment “me” below or DM me and I can send you more details on it!
