3 FREE habits that transformed my midlife sleep. 🌙

1    🕯️ Enjoy the evening dark. I sit outside under the twinkle lights, breathe, and savor the evening. Often just for 5 minutes.
(This is great for cortisol, melatonin, and blood sugar)

2    🧴Oil massage my legs + feet before bed. Any oil works, but I especially love Ayurvedic herbal oils—Vata oil is my autumn favorite. (Wonderful nervous system support plus the Ayurvedic herbs are all about warming and grounding dry and anxious fall energy)

3    🧚‍♀️ Fall asleep to music I love. Simple, but powerful. Honestly, this one feels like sleep fairy dust

Sometimes feeling better isn’t about taking more supplements or following more rigid rules.

It’s about welcoming in sweet little seasonal rituals that work for our body AND our soul.

That’s what my Autumn Reset is all about. 🍂

Rhythm. Ritual. Reset. & Really good fall food of course.

Check it out if you’re into that kind of thing. ❤️

Save this post and give these a try!

💰 Why is it so hard to find out how much something costs?

Anyone else dealing with this or dealt with this recently? It’s frustrating

I know we have a lot of amazing docs and nurses but the system sucks

Sometimes I feel bad being an out if pocket clinic but it definitely has its advantages

😂 5 hilarious + unexpected ways menopause has shown up in my life:

 1    I have curly hair.
After an entire lifetime of straight hair. Okay then. 😂

 2    I am late for things now.
I have been a 15-minutes-early person my ENTIRE LIFE. Who even am I?

 3    It’s becoming increasingly clear that I have probably had ADHD my whole life.
This realization makes me laugh at myself approximately 14 times a day.

4    I have dropped the ball on a few mom things.
I still care deeply. I just… don’t feel compelled to do ALL THE THINGS anymore. And strangely, I’m kind of okay with that.

 5    I can snack on a piece of chicken like it’s a piece of toast.
Cold chicken breast in my hand? Totally normal now. Protein needs have apparently won. 😂

Menopause, man. Not exactly what I expected.

What about you? What hilarious, weird or completely unexpected way has perimenopause or menopause shown up in YOUR life?

Please tell me there are some good ones. 👇

😎A good lunch is seriously underrated in midlife.

The right lunch keeps me full, energized, burning fat, and WAY less likely to be hunting through the pantry at 3 PM. 🙌

I put 10 of my go-to midlife lunches into one free recipe book.

Comment LUNCH and I’ll send it to you. 👇

What is one of your favorite bomber lunches?

🌀 I am personally craving a little more joy in my wellness routine

Less rigid protocols.
Less “I should be doing this”

More small seasonal rituals that make me feel good in my body and my life

🌀This morning, it was ten silly minutes on the trampoline, outside, before the day got going.
Free
Joyous
Sunshine
And honestly, I felt amazing after

I’m bringing a whole lot more of this energy into something I’m creating for the fall 🍁

❓❓What’s one tiny ritual that brings you joy during the day? Share below!! 👇

🍣 Macros get a lot of attention in midlife.Protein. Carbs. Fat. And yes—I care about all of them.

🌱But micronutrients are where so much of the magic happens.

Our cells need vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, essential fatty acids, and thousands of plant compounds to make energy, protect themselves from oxidative stress, build and repair tissue, support our hormones, and keep us feeling good as we age. 

And then there’s the microbiome, which impacts, well, everything from blood sugar, to inflammation, to hormones, sleep, and metabolism.

🌀One of the simplest ways I support my body is by eating a wide variety of plant foods, fibers, seeds, herbs, and spices- I call them booster foods. 

So this little summer breakfast packs A LOT of booster foods into one bowl:
Pumpkin seeds
Sunflower seeds
Ground flax
H**p seeds
Chia seeds
Almond milk
Strawberries
Blueberries
Raspberries
Plus cardamom, which gives it the BEST little twist.

Healthy eating doesn’t have to mean obsessing over every number. But it is about simple ways to load in goodness your body needs. 

These are exactly the kinds of tricks and everyday habits I teach in my Midlife Nutrition Module—so you can understand what your changing body needs, AND have the tools to  make it easy

See you there!

🌀I think something bigger than hormones is happening in midlife.

Women are understanding their bodies.

Questioning old expectations.

Trusting themselves.

Taking up more space.

Giving fewer fvcks.

🌀What happens when millions of women do that at the same time?

I think we’re about to find out.

If this resonates, send it to a woman who needs to see it — and tell me: do you feel it happening too?

Messy and imperfect but here we go!

😎Save this one for later! You will thank me

Besides being insanely delicious….

Many of the symptoms we experience in midlife come from changes in blood sugar and insulin sensitivity with changing hormones.

Having a bomber lunch that helps us balance blood sugar, burn fat, reduce inflammation, and build muscle helps make everything else works better!!
Mood
Sleep
Energy

🌀This is exactly my jam

I originally got this recipe from Baked by Melissa - whom I LOVE

I changed a few things and made it easier because I often don’t have time to cook chicken

But I kept her insane flavor and the basics

✅Recipe
(Makes About 3 lunches)
-3 12.5oz cans of chicken
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- juice from 2 lemons
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons capers
- 1 tsp caper juice
- 2 garlic cloves
-2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup basil leaves (or any herbs)
-4 tablespoons nutritional yeast

Blend all but chicken until smooth’ish
Dump chicken in bowl
Pour dressing on and stir

Enjoy on a colorful salad, sandwich, with seed crackers, lettuce wraps, etc.
I like adding sprouts and sauerkraut on top too!!
Store extra in fridge

You could use grilled or rotisserie chicken too!!

It’s So GOOD 😊
