Stop guessing, start knowing. ✨ Your body has a unique language, and the key to unlocking optimal wellness is learning to listen to it.

Instead of navigating the confusing world of supplements on your own, what if you had a personalized blueprint detailing exactly what your body needs?

We are thrilled to offer the Metabolomix+ test from Genova Diagnostics—a simple, non-invasive urine test that provides a comprehensive look into your unique biochemistry.

This isn't just another test; it's a roadmap to your health, revealing your:
🔹 Oxidative Stress levels
🔹 Need for Mitochondrial (energy!) support
🔹 Toxic Exposure risk
🔹 Methylation status

Get precise, actionable insights on your specific needs for key nutrients like Antioxidants (Vitamins A, C, E, CoQ10), a full panel of B Vitamins, essential minerals like Magnesium and Zinc, and your complete Amino Acid profile.

Ready to trade guesswork for data-driven wellness? Your journey to personalized health starts here. Ask your provider about this test.

✨ Find Your Calm: A Simple Tapping Technique for Stress Relief ✨

Feeling overwhelmed? Your nervous system might be calling for a reset. Discover a gentle yet powerful tapping technique, shared by Erin Brower, LMHC from Village Medicine Seattle, designed to soothe stress and promote inner peace.

🧠 The Science of Calm: Tapping specific points on the face and upper body sends calming signals directly to your amygdala (your brain's stress center). It's believed to mimic the soothing rhythm felt in utero, promoting neuroplasticity and better communication between brain hemispheres.

🙏 How it Works: Combine gentle tapping with positive affirmations to rewire old patterns and create new, empowering beliefs. It’s a beautiful blend of modern science and traditional wisdom (like the "Spirit Gate" point in TCM).

👇 Try This Simple Sequence:
Gently tap each point while focusing on a stressor and repeating calming affirmations:

1️⃣ Between Eyebrows (1 hand)
2️⃣ Outside Eyes/Temples (2 hands)
3️⃣ Under Eyes (2 hands)
4️⃣ Below Nose (1 hand)
5️⃣ Below Lower Lip (1 hand)
6️⃣ Upper Chest/Below Collarbone (2 hands)

Repeat affirmations like: "I am open to the idea that I am supported," "I am safe," "I am good enough."

Shake out your hands and breathe deeply. Notice the shift. 😌

At Village Medicine, we embrace a holistic approach to health—mind, body, and spirit. Ready to learn more about regulating your nervous system and fostering well-being? Visit us in Seattle!

Ready to approach your fertility journey with a renewed sense of connection and self-compassion?

The journey to conception is beautiful, but it can also bring stress that impacts our mind, body, and spirit. Did you know that stress can directly affect ovulation and fertility? ✨

Dr. Tiffany Jaramillo reminds us of the profound connection between our inner state and our physical well-being. By integrating Mind-Body Medicine practices – like meditation, journaling, gentle movement, and connecting with nature – we can cultivate calm, reduce stress hormones, and nurture our fertility from within. 🧘‍♀️💖

This Spring, consider releasing old wounds and stories, just like the indigenous practice of offering them to the wise Tree people. 🌳 Give yourself permission to pause, reconnect, and cultivate deep belief in your body's innate wisdom. Sometimes, the most potent medicine is rediscovering trust in ourselves.

✨ Unveiling the Truth About MASLD (Formerly NAFLD) & Pathways to Liver Wellness ✨

Did you know a "silent" condition, Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD), affects nearly 1 in 4 people globally? It's characterized by fat accumulation in the liver, often linked to diet and metabolic health, not excessive alcohol.

🤫 Why "silent"? Many experience no symptoms until it progresses to more serious stages like MASH (Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis), involving inflammation and potential scarring.

🌱 What drives it? Factors like insulin resistance (often fueled by excess sugar & refined carbs), high fructose intake, disrupted fat metabolism, and chronic inflammation play key roles.

💚 Healing Holistically: Dr. Meghan Zech, ND, FABNO, beautifully merges scientific understanding with a passion for nature's pharmacy. She explores how herbal medicine can complement conventional approaches to support liver health and overall vitality.

🌿 Your Path to Renewal: The empowering news? MASLD is often reversible!

Nourish: Prioritize fiber, healthy fats (hello omega-3s!), antioxidant-rich foods (berries, greens!). Significantly reduce added sugars & refined carbs.

Move: Aim for 150 mins/week of activity you enjoy (walking, yoga, weights!).

Herbal Allies: Explore liver-loving herbs like Dandelion, Nettle, Peppermint, Turmeric, Ginger, Garlic, Lemon, and PNW native Oregon Grape Root. Let food be your medicine!

Support: Treatments like Emsculpt may also aid metabolic function (consult a provider).
Take control of your liver health today. Early awareness and lifestyle shifts are powerful tools for lasting wellness.
