Functional Nutrition and Bodywork

20/10/2025

If you are still using the tricks that worked 10 years ago — or even 2 years ago — and they’re no longer working, nothing is wrong with you.

You are NOT broken.

Simply put, in midlife your physiology changes. The nervous system, hormones, muscle mass and recovery capacity are different now, which means the strategy has to match the season you’re in. Instead of being overwhelmed by the fear based messaging bombarding women at this stage, we can simply acknowledge this natural shift and met ourselves where we are with compassion and understanding.

Outdated methods such as “eat less” and “work out more” stop working and can keep you stuck on the hamster wheel. When the body is under stress due to fluctuating hormones, the system is wired for protection, not fat loss.

Stress physiology down-regulates metabolism, increases fat storage, raises appetite, disrupts sleep, and keeps you in the loop.

It’s not about trying harder — it’s about trying differently.

In midlife the order matters:
Regulate first → then refine. • nervous system safety (BREATH, sleep, boundaries) • muscle preservation (strength training + protein) • blood sugar stability (composition & timing) • and only then — a gentle deficit if still needed

If the body doesn’t feel safe, it stores vs burns. 
When you slow down, check in, and re-establish communication between head and heart, the body begins to respond again.

If you want a simple tool to begin this midlife reframe, join me at Hunt Vitality and learn how to use your breath to optimize metabolism, hormone balance, digestion and energy.

There’s so much talk about nervous system regulation…
But where do we actually start?

With your breath.
Not intense. Not dramatic. Not complicated.

Just breath — with awareness and intention.

You don’t need fancy tech, 90-minute routines, or a silent retreat to regulate your system.

You need your breath — and the skills to use it functionally.

If you’ve been intimidated by breathwork, this is for YOU!

This is the bridge.

To calm. To clarity. To hormonal and metabolic balance.

Join me for a 4-week virtual breathwork journey starting Tuesday.

4 weeks. $88. We start May 6.

When it comes to blood sugar & hormone balance, the nervous system is running the show.

Depending on our state, we are either storing fat or burning it. We are either utilizing the energy from our food and feeling satiated or we are constantly hungry with massive energy fluctuations. We are either signaling safety due to access to nourishment, or signaling danger due to lacking nourishment.

I’ve shared recently one of the best ways to regulate the nervous system to create blood sugar and hormone balance is the simple act of breathing. Well, good news….another simple act we are already doing is also supportive of signaling safety in the nervous system.

Eating.
Eating enough.
Eating enough protein, fat and fiber.
Eating in the morning.

Womens bodies thrive in a fed, nourished state. By eating (especially protein) in the morning you are signaling safety to your nervous system. Signaling you have access to food. You are safe enough to release the hormones necessary for procreation. Your blood sugar starts the day stabilized and energy is consistent for the day.

Breathing (optimally) and eating (enough).
Keep it simple.

I am welcoming Spring with arms wide open!

In deep gratitude for the beautiful and her ability to put into words the truth of what many of us feel so deeply.

Let the season a renewal, rebirth, growth, warmth and beauty begin!

You are not alone.

You are not broken.

You don’t have to do more, push harder, grind it out.

You can choose to understand what’s happening in your unbroken body, lean into the shifts and work with the new physiology.

You can accept the cyclical nature of our divine feminine nature and reframe the next chapter.

And, of course, there are tools and ways to ease the pain, make suffering optional and have a more easeful transition.

Anything is possible, let’s talk and see what’s possible for YOU!

Pro-Tip: add chopped mushrooms to your ground beef for taco night.

Why: Grass fed ground beef ain’t cheap. But I believe it’s a super food. And in my family, we all have healthy appetites and 2lbs of meat gets crushed with little leftovers. By adding mushrooms not only am I adding bulk to the meat, I’m adding fiber, something most of us are lacking in the standard American diet.

So chop the mushrooms, add to the instant pot with 2lbs ground beef, add seasoning ( is my fave) and pressure cook for 15 mins or so.

Enjoy!

Over the next 4 Mondays, I’m going to be sharing what I believe to be more important than any cyber Monday sale, links to what you need to buy, and offer a respite in the holiday hustle and bustle.

We have entered a new paradigm on many levels, and I want to invite you into 2025 feeling connected to your power, agency and inner knowing when it comes to being well. Not through supplements and strict protocols, but from an understanding of basic principles of the interconnectedness of the systems of our body. Nothing exists in a vacuum or silo. And when you understand how the proper inputs create wholistic wellness, you can stop outsourcing and be empowered.

Today we begin with the simple understanding of root cause wellness.

Nervous system regulation -> blood sugar -> hormone balance
