Coffee in hand, and ready for a day of learning!

Today’s the day! I’m excited to be taking a class on blood flow and lymphatic health!

The more I study the human body, the more fascinated I become by how everything works together. And there’s always more to learn!

I’m especially excited to learn new techniques to support blood flow and lymphatic movement that I can use myself and bring into my practice to help my clients.

Continuing my education is something I’ll never stop doing. There’s always another piece of the puzzle to discover.

And that’s one of the things I love about my 𝐑𝐞𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐭 program.

It’s not a program I created and then considered finished. It continues to grow as I grow in my knowledge.

My clients aren’t just receiving education for six months. They have lifetime access to the educational modules, including new information, techniques, and resources I continue to add.

So whether you’re an existing RYG client or someone just beginning the program, you benefit from everything I continue to learn!

The learning doesn’t stop when the program ends, and neither does my commitment to helping people improve their health.

Looking forward to another day of learning and bringing more valuable information back to my clients!

And of course, I’ll be sharing a few things I learn right here with all of you, too!

This picture of Mom and I was taken many years ago, during a time when she was doing very well. Little did I know how much her health journey would eventually influence my own life and the work I do today.

I lost my mom primarily due to congestive heart disease. She also had spina bifida, which brought additional challenges throughout her life.

But one thing about my mom was that she understood the importance of movement. Even toward the end of her life, she continued trying to get out and walk. She knew moving her body was a must, and I thank God for that.

One of the hardest things for me was sitting in the hospital or at another doctor’s appointment, listening to the same conversations over and over.

Another medication. Increase this medication. Adjust that medication.

And then watching her continue to decline.

It was incredibly depressing and frustrating to sit there feeling so helpless.

I understand that medications have their place, especially with heart disease. But I kept wondering why weren’t they talking about anything else.

What about nutrition? Blood flow? Lymphatic congestion? Her nervous system?

What about looking at her as a whole person instead of addressing one problem at a time?

I watched the stress, worry, frustration, anxiety, and eventually what seemed like a loss of hope take a toll on her. I could see how much her health challenges were affecting her emotionally and physically.

Our bodies are not made up of separate systems working independently. Everything is connected.

And here’s something I wish more people understood.

Your body can compensate for changes and dysfunction for a long time before you notice obvious symptoms.

Then one day, something happens, and you wonder, “Why did this happen? I felt fine yesterday!”

But sometimes those changes have been developing for years.

And just because you’re experiencing pain or symptoms in one area doesn’t necessarily mean that’s where the problem originates. Sometimes the contributing factors are coming from a completely different part of the body.

Since heart disease runs in my family, I’ve spent years researching ways to support my own health and hopefully prevent going down that same road.

One area I’ve been studying extensively is the lymphatic system and its connection to blood flow and the nervous system.

The circulatory and lymphatic systems work together to manage fluid throughout the body. With congestive heart failure, fluid can accumulate, and the lymphatic system may struggle to keep up with the increased demand.

This connection has become another important piece of the puzzle for me.

Through my research, I discovered Dr. Perry Nickelston, also known as the Lymph Doc.

This Saturday, I’m taking his lymph and blood flow class, and I can’t wait!

I’m excited to continue learning more about how circulation, lymphatic function, and the nervous system influence one another.

I wish I had understood more of these connections when my mom was alive. I wish someone had talked to her about nutrition, movement, lymphatic health, and other ways to support her whole body alongside the medical care she needed.

That experience is a big part of why I approach health differently today. I don’t believe we can focus on one symptom without considering what else might be contributing to it.

And I don’t ever want to stop learning.

I can’t change my mom’s story, but I can continue learning and use that knowledge to help others rewrite theirs. ❤️

YOUR CALF MUSCLES ARE YOUR SECOND HEART!

Did you know your calf muscles play a HUGE role in keeping both your circulatory and lymphatic systems moving?

CIRCULATORY SYSTEM: Your heart pumps blood throughout your body, but your calf muscles help push blood from your lower legs back UP toward your heart against gravity.

LYMPHATIC SYSTEM: Unlike your circulatory system, your lymphatic system doesn’t have its own pump! It relies on movement, muscle contractions, and breathing to keep lymph flowing.

These two systems work together! Healthy circulation and lymphatic flow are essential for delivering nutrients, maintaining fluid balance, and supporting your body’s natural waste-removal processes.

HERE’S THE PROBLEM!

So many people spend hours sitting at computers every day. When those calf muscles aren’t moving, we’re missing out on an important mechanism that helps move blood and lymphatic fluid.

This can contribute to poor circulation, fluid pooling, swelling, and heavy, tired legs.

THE SOLUTION? MOVE THOSE CALVES!

* Calf raises
* Straight-leg and bent-knee calf stretches
* Toe and heel walking
* Seated ankle pumps

Take a movement break every 30–60 minutes! Even a couple of minutes can make a difference.

This is exactly why I emphasize movement and lymphatic health in my 𝐑𝐞𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐭 program. Our circulatory, lymphatic, and digestive systems are all connected!

Don’t underestimate those calf muscles! Keeping them moving is one of the simplest things you can do to support your circulation, lymphatic flow, and overall health!

The more I work on my own lymphatic system and continue researching it, the more blown away I am by how connected EVERYTHING in the body really is.

And lymph is one of the most important places to start.

Your lymphatic system helps move excess fluid, cellular waste and other material out of your tissues, while working closely with your circulation and immune system.

But here’s the bigger picture:

Your gut. Your lymph. Your brain. Your immune system. Your nervous system. Your circulation.

They aren’t separate. They’re constantly communicating and working together, which is why I believe we have to stop looking at symptoms and systems individually and start looking at the whole body.

That’s really the foundation behind 𝐑𝐞𝐰𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐆𝐮𝐭 — understanding those connections and supporting the body as a whole.

Right now, two of my favorite products to use alongside my lymph exercises are:

🌿 BioPure Lymph Balm — I use this nightly over my major lymph areas and anywhere I’m experiencing soreness or tightness.

🌿 CellCore LymphActiv — internal herbal support for healthy lymphatic flow and drainage.

I’ll put links for both products in the comments. These products are a great place to start with supporting your lymphatic system.

And if you want the lymph exercises I pair with them, comment LYMPH below. 👇

This is my view while I do my lymph reset exercises almost every day.

I could do them anywhere, but I love doing them here. The water, fresh air and quiet make it one of my favorite places to support both my lymphatic system and my nervous system.

And yes, I know I’ve talked about lymph before. I’ll probably never stop talking about it because I think it’s THAT important.

One of my favorite experts I’ve learned from on the lymphatic system is Dr. Perry Nickelston, creator of the Big 6® Lymph Reset.

One of the ways he explains lymph is to think of it almost like little toilets throughout your body. It’s a pretty good visual when you think about what the lymphatic system is helping your body do every day.

Your cells are constantly producing metabolic waste, and your body is constantly dealing with things we’re exposed to through our food, air, water and environment. Your lymphatic system helps collect excess fluid, cellular debris and other material from your tissues and move it along so it can be filtered and processed.

Now think about how much we sit.

At a desk. In the car. On the couch.

Your lymphatic system doesn’t have one central pump like your heart. It relies on movement, muscle contractions and breathing to help keep lymph moving.

That’s why I don’t want mine sitting stagnant. I want things MOVING.

And this is such an important piece of what I teach inside 𝑹𝒆𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒆 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝑮𝒖𝒕.

Because one of the biggest things I want you to learn in this program is that nothing in your body works by itself.

Your gut. Your lymphatic system. Your liver. Your immune system. Your nervous system. Your hormones.

It’s all connected.

So we’re not just talking about food and gut repair. We’re learning how these different systems work together and simple things you can actually do to support your body.

Would you like to learn what I do almost every day to support my lymphatic system?

Comment LYMPH below and I’ll send you my handout so you can try it too.

And stay tuned. Later this week I’ll be sharing one of my favorite products I’ve personally used to support my lymphatic system.

The first step is awareness.
The next step is noticing the resistance.

Maybe you’ve finally started connecting the dots.

You know your body is trying to tell you something.
You know you need to make changes.

You know what you’ve been doing isn’t getting you where you want to go.

That awareness matters.

But then comes the resistance.

“I don’t have the time.”
“It’s too much work.”
“I don’t know if I want to spend the money.”
“I’ll start when things slow down.”
“Maybe I can figure it out on my own.”

And this is where so many people stay stuck.

Not because they don’t want to feel better—but because taking that next step requires something from you.

It may mean investing in yourself.

Changing habits.

Making your health a priority.

Looking deeper instead of continuing to manage symptoms.

And being willing to consistently do the work.

But doing the work feels different when you have the guidance, support, tools and a clear path forward.

There comes a point when you realize you’re ready for more than just knowing something needs to change.

You’re ready to actually create the change.

That’s a big part of 𝑹𝒆𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒆 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝑮𝒖𝒕. I help you look deeper, understand what your body may need, and give you the guidance, tools and support to start moving forward.

Awareness is the first step.

Recognizing the resistance is the next.

Moving through it is where change begins.

🍬 I was at the grocery store yesterday and walked past the candy aisle…and yep, here we go.

October 1. Sugar season has officially begun.

Halloween candy is everywhere, and then we roll right into Thanksgiving and Christmas treats.

At the same time, kids are back in school sharing all those germs, schedules get busier, we spend more time indoors, get less sunshine, grab more processed and fast foods on the go, sleep can suffer…and our immune systems can take a hit.

This is the time of year when I think we need to be more intentional about supporting our bodies — especially our kids.

And part of that is simply paying attention to what we’re bringing into our homes and what we’re modeling for them.

Our kids are watching what we buy, what we eat, and the choices we make. We have an opportunity to teach them early that what they put into their bodies matters.

One really easy way to get them involved? Let them use the Yuka app.

They can scan the barcode on a food and see its score and information about the ingredients. Kids actually have fun with it because THEY get to do the scanning and see what’s in their food instead of Mom or Dad just telling them something isn’t a good choice.

Let them scan some of that Halloween candy aisle. 😳

It’s a simple way to start teaching them to look at labels, recognize ingredients and become more aware of their own choices.

And right now is also a great time to make sure the basics are in place at home — whole foods, enough protein, hydration, good sleep, getting outside, gut support, and the vitamins and minerals their growing bodies need.

When you do add supplements, quality matters.

It’s easy to grab something from Amazon or order the latest supplement you saw on TikTok, but you don’t always know the quality, how it was stored, how well it was tested, or whether you’re actually getting what the label says you’re getting.

That’s one reason I have a Fullscript store. You can find high-quality supplements from trusted professional brands, including lots of options for children, immune support, gut health, vitamins, minerals and more.

And it’s not just supplements. You can also find cleaner everyday products like toothpaste, sunscreen, soaps, lotions and other personal-care products.

If you’re overwhelmed by all the choices and aren’t sure what to do or where to start, message me. I’m happy to help point you in the right direction for you or your children.

It’s easy to create a free Fullscript account, and you’ll always get a discount when you shop through my store.

I’ll put my Fullscript link in the comments. 🤍

Sugar season is here. Let’s be intentional about what we’re putting into our bodies — and what we’re teaching our kids along the way.

Sometimes gratitude really is this simple. 🤎

Maybe we could learn something from our dogs.

Nose in the air. Taking everything in. Completely in the moment.

Gratitude doesn’t have to come from something BIG.

Your morning coffee. A walk outside. Someone you love. A beautiful view. A quiet moment.

The little things count.

And there’s a reason gratitude and mindset are part of 𝑹𝒆𝒘𝒓𝒊𝒕𝒆 𝒀𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝑮𝒖𝒕.

Your brain and gut are constantly communicating, and your nervous system is part of that conversation. How we respond to stress matters.

So practice gratitude. Morning. Night. Before a meal. On a walk. Even in the middle of a crappy day.

Find something good.

Maybe today, take a lesson from a dog.

Stick your nose in the air and enjoy the moment. 🤎
