Before growth comes regulation.

Breathe 🌬️
Soften your shoulders.
Feel the ground. 👣
Be gentle and kind to yourself. 🤗
After being diagnosed with Hashimotos, an autoimmune condition when your thyroid is under attack by your own immune system, I was faced with major life decisions….take a prescription for the rest of my life to mask the symptoms or address the ROOT CAUSE and regulate the disfunction happening in my body’s system.

With over 20 years of experience in the holistic wellness realm, I chose to address the root causes and face the reality of what was happening. I was vegetarian for 20 years and vegan for 7 and over time, my body stopped producing enough stomach acid to properly break down my food and absorb any nutrients. So, although I was eating clean and nutritious food, I was malnourished because I was not absorbing the nutrients 🤯

Feeling like my world was crashing down around me, questioning everything I ever knew about nutrition and quite frankly losing my identity, I realized my wellbeing was in jeopardy and I needed to take drastic measures.

Giving myself grace and permission to pivot into my next “nuYOU” journey, I started introducing animal protein into my diet with a focus on gut healing bone broth and high quality foods to help repair my gut. I helped regulate my nervous system by taking Epsom salt/ baking soda baths at least 4 times a week, started wearing light technology patches called LifeWave to help my body produce copper peptides and stimulate my own stem cells, drinking mineral rich water, change all of my skincare and beauty products to be 100% non-toxic, refined my sleep habits and started to say no and have more boundaries to help reduce stress levels.

With 3 years of implementation of these major lifestyle changes and a shift in my mindset, I have been able to pull myself through one of the darkest periods of my life. It was hard to even talk about what I was going through for a long time and I hid it very well from the general public. Always choose yourself first 💚

Today’s water becomes tomorrow’s wellness. 💧

Hydration isn’t just about thirst — it’s about how you’ll feel later.

Early signs of dehydration:

• Fatigue or low energy
• Headaches or brain fog
• Dry lips/skin
• Dark urine
• Muscle cramps
• Mood shifts or irritability

Winter hydration tips:

• Drink water even when you’re not thirsty
• Add minerals or a pinch of sea salt
• Choose warm fluids (herbal teas, broths)
• Eat water-rich foods (soups, citrus, cooked veggies)
• Start your morning with a glass of water

Cold weather doesn’t mean your body needs less water — it means it needs more intention.

Hydrate today. Support tomorrow. ✨

Sustainable change only happens when the body feels safe. 🫂💓

Not rushed.
Not judged.
Not forced.

Winter is where safety is built.

Pause.

Feel your feet 👣 on the ground.
Inhale deeply. Exhale 🌬️slowly.

What sensations do you notice right now❓

🧬Healing doesn’t start with force — it starts with awareness.

Your body’s wisdom is always speaking 🌀All we need to do is slow down to listen.

At nuYOU, we honor nature’s calendar. ❄️🌿

Winter is not the season for becoming. It is the season for listening, digesting, and restoring — physically, emotionally, and energetically. 🤍🔥🧬

You don’t need to have it all figured out today. Your only work right now is to be with yourself. 🌙

For most of human history, winter was understood as a sacred pause — a time to rest the body, warm the belly, 🍲
and listen closely to the quiet intelligence within. 🌬️🌀

Nature is not rushing. 🌲
Trees are conserving life at their roots. The soil is alive, though still. 🌱

Animals are turning inward to protect their energy. 🐻 Your body follows this same wisdom. 🤎 In winter, your nervous system and digestion slow by design — asking for warmth, safety, and presence.

This is when the gut and the mind are most sensitive to stress, pressure, and force. 🫶
Be Gentle. Give Grace. Express Gratitude. 🌸🪽

Hello from 🤗 We are looking for your feedback!!

1) What makes you subscribe to a monthly newsletter from a business?

2) Once you subscribe, do you actually open the monthly newsletter and why? What catches your attention?

The holiday season can be beautiful… and overwhelming. Extra noise. Extra obligations. Extra emotions.

🌳 Hugging a tree helps regulate your nervous system

🌳 Grounding lowers stress hormones when everything feels rushed

🌳 Nature invites you out of fight-or-flight and back into presence

🌳 Slows your breath, steadies your heart, clears mental clutter

When the season pulls you outward, grounding pulls you back home to yourself 💫

➡️ Simple ways to ground this season:

✨ Step outside for 5 minutes between errands

✨ Hug a tree or place your hands on bark

✨ Take 3 slow breaths with your feet on the earth

✨ Walk barefoot if weather allows

✨ Pause before the next “yes”

You don’t need more doing — you need more being. Let nature hold you when the holidays feel heavy. 💚

INNER SEASON💫

Joy isn’t a luxury — it’s regulation. 🌞

When you laugh, dance, sing, or express yourself fully, you’re not just having fun — you’re communicating safety to your nervous system.

✨ These moments tell your body, “It’s okay to soften. You’re safe to feel. You can breathe again.”

Joy helps reset your stress response, improve digestion, boost immunity, and bring you back into alignment with yourself. It’s one of the most powerful — and underrated — healing tools we have. 🧬

So today, instead of asking “What do I need to get done?”

Try asking:
💛 What brings my body joy right now?

💃 Maybe it’s a spontaneous dance break.

😄 A good laugh with someone you love.

🌿 A quiet moment in nature.

🍽️ Cooking a nutritious meal.

Let your body lead the way — it knows what joy feels like.

What emotions are you still trying to digest?

Your gut 🦠 doesn’t just process food — it processes feelings.

Every knot, flutter, and heaviness… it’s your body whispering your truth. 🕊️

Tonight’s full moon 🌕 is an invitation to pause.

✨ Write it down.
✨ Feel it fully.
✨ Let it move through you.

Release the emotions, the stories, the tension that no longer serve your highest self. Make space for lightness, clarity, and renewal. 🌕💫

Healing isn’t just about what you 🍽️ eat — it’s about what you allow yourself to feel and release.

🕯️ Rest. Reflect. Release. Repeat.
