Feeling heavy, puffy, or mentally drained by mid-afternoon? You don't always need a nap or a latte, this simple and restorative posture helps:

Improve lymphatic drainage
Support venous return to the heart
Calm the nervous system
Enhance digestion via vagus nerve activation
Relieve lower body swelling (ideal after long periods of sitting or standing)

How to do it:
Lie on your back with your legs resting vertically against a wall
Let your arms fall to your sides, palms up
Breathe deeply for 5-10 minutes
Bonus: Place a pillow under your hips to enhance lymphatic flow

Still dealing with bloating, despite a clean diet and probiotics? The missing link could be your bile acids.

Bile plays a crucial role not just in fat digestion, but also in maintaining the right pH balance in your small intestine, an environment where beneficial bacteria can thrive and harmful ones can't. When bile flow is sluggish (due to poor gallbladder function, liver stagnation, or certain medications), it can lead to dysbiosis, overgrowths like SIBO, constipation, and nutrient malabsorption.

Most gut healing protocols focus on microbiome support, but if bile acids are out of balance, progress stalls. That's why we assess bile flow and gallbladder function as part of any comprehensive gut plan.

If you've tried:

cutting carbs
eating "clean"
more cardio
new supplements
random TikTok hacks
guessing your hormones
..and you STILL feel tired, bloated, inflamed, moody, or overweight...

It's not because you're doing it wrong. It's because you're doing it blind.

Your symptoms are signals, but without real data, they all sound the same. When you stop chasing symptoms and start understanding why your body is struggling, that's when things finally shift. If you're ready for a deeper dive into your metabolism, hormones, and gut, book a consultation and let's get you answers.

If these symptoms show up daily, they're not just part of life... they're early indicators of system imbalance:

Waking up groggy, even after 7-8 hours: often a sign your cortisol rhythm is flipped or your sleep isn't truly restorative.
Afternoon energy crashes: commonly tied to blood sugar instability or sluggish adrenal output.
Bloating after meals (or all day): can point to low stomach acid, poor bile flow, or microbial imbalance.
Brain fog that lifts with caffeine: suggests your body is relying on stimulants because your natural energy production is lagging.
Irritability between meals: a classic sign of glucose dips or poor metabolic flexibility.
Cold hands and feet: often connected to low circulation, thyroid sluggishness, or chronic stress.

These symptoms aren't random. They often point to dysregulated cortisol, blood sugar imbalances, sluggish detox pathways, or nutrient deficiencies.

If your digestion feels off, bloating, irregularity, discomfort, your gut may be asking for some TLC. And healing often starts on your plate.

Here's a simple gut-friendly plate framework you can use daily:

1. Colorful veggies (1/2 your plate) Think: leafy greens, cooked carrots, squash, or sauerkraut for gentle fiber + phytonutrients.
2. Quality protein (1/4 plate) Wild-caught fish, pasture-raised chicken, lentils, or eggs, essential for gut lining repair.
3. Healthy fats (1-2 tbsp) Avocado, olive oil, nuts/seeds, or coconut, they reduce inflammation and support nutrient absorption.
4. Easy-to-digest starch (if tolerated) Sweet potato, squash, or white rice which gives energy without overloading the system.
Bonus: Add gut-loving extras. Fermented foods, bone broth, ginger, or fresh herbs that support for digestion and microbiome diversity.

This isn't about perfection, it's about consistency and giving your gut what it needs to thrive.

If your PMS has gotten worse over the past few years, you're not imagining it, and no, it's not just "aging."

Around your mid-to-late 30s, progesterone begins to decline faster than estrogen, creating a relative imbalance known as estrogen dominance.
Symptoms like irritability, breast tenderness, bloating, mood swings, and insomnia become more pronounced, especially in the second half of your cycle.

The good news? There's so much we can do with nutrition, targeted herbs, and stress regulation to restore that balance before menopause.

Have you noticed this shift in your cycle? Let's talk below.

As the pace slows after the holidays, it's natural for motivation and mood to shift. These 5 habits can help restore balance to your brain chemistry and lift your energy from the inside out:

Get morning sunlight. It boosts serotonin and resets your body clock.
Eat protein and colorful veggies. Your brain needs the right building blocks for happy neurotransmitters.
Move your body daily. Exercise naturally raises dopamine and serotonin.
Support your gut. It makes most of your serotonin! Think fermented foods + fiber.
Rest. Sleep and stillness are how your brain resets and rebalances.

About Naturopathic Medicine

Clients come to naturopathic medicine with a variety of concerns, from short-term symptoms like pain from a sprain or fall, to long-term symptoms like headaches, auto-immune diseases or osteoporosis. Naturopathic medicine does not treat any disease. Rather, you will work as a team with your naturopathic doctor to restore health, thereby reducing or eliminating symptoms.

With the exception of acute injuries, symptoms arise due to an imbalance in the system. The symptom is the 'check engine' light that tells us to look deeper and find what is out of balance. The primary pathways of elimination include the liver, kidney, stomach, intestines, and lungs. The secondary pathways include the skin and mucous membranes. If the primary pathways of elimination are blocked, then the body will try to eliminate via the secondary pathways.

An example of this can be seen with the accumulation of the body’s own hormones that are ineffectively processed by the liver and that can manifest itself as acne. In this way, we see, for example, that almost all skin conditions are a result of the blockage of one the primary routes of elimination. Biotherapeutic drainage can restore the imbalance in the liver both in the cells and outside the cells. The end result would include not only clearing the acne, but addressing the root cause of the problem. Thus, homeopathy allows the system to self-regulate and re-establish homeostasis.
