If you don't have an answer right away, then the a If you don't have an answer right away, then the answer is, nothing! And if you don't have a plan to go after what you want, how do you expect to achieve it? We need plans for healing, like anything else. If your body is not getting what it needs, the problems don't go away. If your body feels unsafe, it will struggle to heal. If you don't believe you can be better, you won't put the work in to get there! I surely believe in you and your body, no matter what your past has been like, and I want to invite you to the first ever, free, gut-healing workshop to prepare for 2025! Link in my bio! I'll cover real, action-oriented steps to take to start healing your gut (and a healed gut leads to a healed life), facilitate EFT, a guided visualization/journaling prompt, and you'll leave with a gut-healing plan that YOU create on your own and will commit to following for your best 2025 ever. And all self-healers who sign up will get a dazzling discount on my IBD course to propel you even further in the new year ⭐️ PS a replay will be sent out to those who sign up! #selfhealer #functionalnutrition #girlinhealing #crohns #ibd #ulcerativecolitjs #guthealth
The official term of "leaky gut" is gut permeabili The official term of "leaky gut" is gut permeability. This is the loosening of intestinal tight junctions, which are tight and selectively permeable in healthy conditions, allowing pathogens and food particles get into the bloodstream. This is not a good thing ☹️ Since gut issues can affect any part of the body, it's possible gut permeability can be linked to any health issue even if it's not gastrointestinal in nature. Gut permeability creates a heightened immune response, perpetuates inflammation, impairs nutrient absorption and more. Medications, alcohol, gluten, uncontrolled stress, and other environmental toxins can contribute to gut permeability. Healing gut permeability takes a multifaceted approach through dietary choices, healing and sealing supplements, and lifestyle changes, especially when it comes to stress response and your environment. How I can support YOU to heal your gut permeability right now ⭐️ ➡️ Sign up for my FREE gut healing workshop for 2025 in bio! We'll talk through real strategy, do a tapping sequence, a guided visualizing journaling prompt, and you'll create your own 2025 gut healing plan. PLUS all who sign up will get a limited-time discount on my course, functional IBD healing for its last launch of 2024! ➡️ Apply for my 1:1 spots for January or grab one of two left for December! ➡️ Parent consultations are 30% off through November 30th. Grab one to talk healing strategy for your child under 18. If you had to pick one health focus for 2025, you should absolutely start by creating a strong and healthy gut! Gut health IS wealth. #selfhealer #crohns #ibd #guthealth #ibs #celiac #gutpermeability #functionalnutrition #girlinhealing
If ya wanna be the gut health girlie ya gotta c h If ya wanna be the gut health girlie ya gotta c h a n g e If you want a dose of truths for breakfast today, here ya go ➡️ You need to cook most of your meals at home, particularly early on and at the start of healing digestion. There are tons of very simple foods/recipes and shortcuts to help you. ➡️ You gotta eat more and eat real food. A starbs pumpkin spice latte, protein bar, and a salad with salmon on it is not sufficient nutrition, nor is it proper nutrition. Like literally *every* process in the body, digestion requires nutrients of food to work properly. Join me on Sunday, December 1 (link in bio) for a gut-healing planning workshop! I'm dishing out all the MUSTS for gut health, walking you through EFT tapping, a guided visualization journaling prompt, and helping you to craft your own gut-healing plan so 2025 can be spent LESS on thinking about poor digestion and MORE on *anything else.* P.S. If you want to become a 1:1 client there are only two more weeks in 2024 to start before I book January clients! #guthealth #crohns #ibs #ibd #celiac #ulcerativecolitis #girlinhealing #selfhealer #functionalnutrition
