DAILY FEED

The more I walk this wellness path, the more I feel a desperate need to educate people on nutrition. What I’m finding is that I live in a bubble.. In my Denver crowd, I’m surrounded by people who eat whole, unprocessed foods, but when I leave that bubble I’m face to face with the Standard American Diet. My first response is to be raging pissed but under the anger is just an intense feeling of grief and sorrow. . . I’ve gotten messages from you guys asking how to talk to your loved ones about health and wellness but the truth is, I’m still working on figuring it out myself. I think we have to do our best to be gentle and kind and compassionate. We have to share our knowledge without judgment or assumption and let people make their own decisions. We can make them delicious meals, share cookbooks, pour them glasses of water and model a healthy lifestyle... but most importantly just keep on loving them the best way we know how. I’m a firm believer that love is the most nourishing thing we’ve got. ❤️ . . Have you guys visited @mickeytrescott on the interwebz lately? This liver is prepared using the instructions in her cookbook. She has some of the best, most delicious and nourishing recipes out there. So great to share with friends and family! #stayrootedinhealing
I was hesitant to write this one because I take a different approach to the elimination diet than most people out there. . . Obsessing over AIP took me to a pretty dark place and I eventually had to learn to let go of some things in order to find happiness and healing. I know healing looks different for everyone, but I want to share how I approach things now. I have determined food triggers, reduced antibodies, healed SIBO and will follow this mentality as I move into my Candida protocol. . .

In case you were wondering what I was holding yesterday, it’s a Paleo Pancake Pumpkin Muffin made with @birchbenders pumpkin mix. Super easy to make, fluffy, and delicious. If you tolerate dairy, these would be bomb.com with a cream cheese frosting. Recipe is up on da blog! #notcandidafriendly
Hey gurl! I’m over here living my best life, baking pumpkin muffins & shit. . . . Yesterday my healthcare team confirmed what I thought to be true.... I have a Candida overgrowth! 👉 bloating, weight gain, stomach pains after eating certain foods, reoccurring yeast infections, PMS, fatigue, memory loss, brain fog.... all that stuff had been gone for ages until this year. . . . I knew something wasn’t right but the stress of a restructure at work, remodeling our kitchen, studying for my NTC program & losing my full time gig put me in straight up survival mode. I ignored the symptoms because it was all I could do to just get through the day! I ordered a couple tests (SIBO & yeast stool) so I’d be ready to take on whatever was ailing me as soon as I had a hot second to breathe. . . . So here I am. Living it up, Candida and all, enjoying my last paleo muffin before I start a Candida protocol next week. I’ll be blogging about my experience & even sending out protocol deets via the Rooted in Healing newsletter. Be sure to sign up if you want to follow along (link in bio💞). #stayrootedinhealing
BROTH IS READY!! Some days I feel like I’m on the STRUG BUS. When that happens, it’s so easy for me to get in my head, to start listing all the things going wrong, dive head first into a spiral of negativity and C R Y. . . . That’s not happening today, though. When I started getting stressed about my sleep deprivation, brain fog, health fears and to do list, I caught myself. I was like, “betch, everything is going to be okay and you can handle this.” There was an immediate shift in my energy because I sank into the feeling of TRUST that everything would be ok. . . I came home, poured myself a cup o’ broth and really gave myself space to feel grounded. I love that I’ve gotten to a place in my life where I can be a witness to my emotions and redirect them when necessary. It’s a much better way to live ❤️ . . As promised, here are some of the things I add to a mug of broth to make it delicious: fresh minced garlic, sea salt, turmeric, or fresh ginger. You can add one or all!
