✨ Preconception: A Window of Opportunity ✨

Did you know it takes about 100 days for an egg to mature and ~75 days for s***m to fully develop? 🥚✨💫 That means the months before conception are just as important as pregnancy itself.

Preconception care helps you create the healthiest environment for fertility and baby’s development. It’s about more than just taking a prenatal—it’s about supporting your whole body and mind:

• Prioritize sleep, movement & stress management
• Reduce toxins & support liver function
• Run labs to uncover nutrient gaps
• Balance hormones & regulate cycles
• Choose a quality prenatal (active folate, B’s, iodine, choline)
• Eat whole foods rich in protein, healthy fats & micronutrients
• Support emotional well-being & mindset

Research shows that waiting until pregnancy to make changes is often too late to meaningfully influence fetal development (PMID: 29673873). That’s why the preconception window matters so much.

💌 If you’d like support on your preconception journey, I’d love to walk alongside you.

On September 1st 2025, Providence Health Plans is outsourcing alternative healthcare claims and care decisions to a third-party company called ASH—putting profits over patients. This will limit access to acupuncture, chiropractic and naturopathic services, as well as massage therapy by underpaying providers, overloading them with red tape, requiring medical necessity reviews for all services and disallowing out of network providers from providing care to Providence members.

Tell Providence to reverse this decision and protect access to care!

Great reminder to stay above the noise and distractions of the “breaking news” headlines. Spending time in nature is a wonderful antidote for chronic stress.

Chronic harms both psychological and physical well-being. "It takes a toll on our bodies,” UTSC Department of Psychology professor Dr. Brett Ford says. Share in the comments one way you are being kind to your body and mind.
