Today I am celebrating 27 years on this earth! 🎂

As I reflect on my health struggles over the past year, I am making it my priority to focus on improving my overall health & quality of life.

1. Sleep has always been a struggle for me, whether that be sleeping too much or not enough. I am pushing myself to improve my sleep hygiene. This includes things like, limiting blue light exposure before bed, diffusing lavender for a calming sleep environment, getting into a sleep/wake routine, etc. 💤
2. As someone who has struggled with mental health issues for as long as I can remember, I want to get back on track with self care. I've started seeing a therapist again and working on things that make me happy. 🧠
3. Due to health problems, my micronutrient levels (especially vitamin D & iron) are often struggling. My goal is to stay consistent with supplementation, eat more foods rich in what I'm lacking, getting to the root causes of my deficiencies, etc. This also means dedicating time to going outside everyday to get some much needed vitamin D! 🌞
4. For those that don't know, in the past year and a half I was diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), so working on my gut health is so important to me. Gut health affects every aspect of our health, so getting/staying in remission and improving my gut microbiome is key. 🦠
5. Movement is so important and it is my goal to incorporate more and more. I want to get back in the gym, take more walks, do yoga, start hiking again, etc. With my health struggles, getting in daily movement is sometimes hard so I need to give myself more grace but also push to do any movement tolerated. 🧘🏼‍♀️

Do you have any health goals for yourself?

During the winter there are less hours of daylight and we are further away from the sun. Sunlight has a major impact on our circadian rhythm (sleep cycle) as well as our vitamin D levels. As a result low serotonin, vitamin D, and more can lead to depressive symptoms. Although not the cause, additional stress around the holidays can also contribute to your symptoms.

Common symptoms include:
💤Oversleeping (hypersomnia)
🍽️Overeating, particularly with a craving for carbohydrates, leading to weight gain
🫥Social withdrawal (feeling like “hibernating”)
😵‍💫Decreased energy, fatigue, or feeling slowed down
😢Persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” mood most of the day, nearly every day
😡Feelings of irritability, frustration, or restlessness
🧎🏼‍♀️‍➡️Loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities
💭Difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions
