Your body sends signals when it’s not getting enough good fats. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣
That’s because the body uses the fat you eat to build cell walls. ⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
You have more than 10 trillion cells in your body, and every single one of them needs high-quality fat.⁣
⁣
The higher-quality the fat you eat, the better your brain will function. ⁣
⁣
I eat fat with every meal, and I’ve never felt better. The right fats can improve your mood, skin, hair, and nails, while protecting you against Type 2 diabetes, dementia, cancer, and much more.⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣
Among my favorite sources of fat include:⁣⁣⁣
Avocados⁣⁣⁣
Nuts & seeds⁣⁣⁣
Fatty fish that are rich in omega-3 fats⁣⁣⁣
Extra virgin olive oil ⁣⁣⁣
Grass-fed or sustainably raised animal products ⁣⁣⁣

So very true- from my own personal experience 🙏🏽🤗

you can’t heal a body you hate. ✨ this is part of the imperative work that I do with patients, often times working in conjunction with trauma specialists and other types of therapists. undoing the grips of what is keeping the body stuck in a sympathetic fight or fight, stressed inflamed state.🤟🏽

These are my top 5 tips for active stress management. Using these tools in moments we feel overwhelmed can help mitigate the harmful effects of our modern, stressful world.

Address the underlying causes. If you feel chronically stressed, anxious, or depressed and are not sure why, dig deeper. In addition to working with the right therapist, I recommend working with a Functional Medicine practitioner to determine if you’re struggling with nutritional deficiencies, heavy metal toxicity, food sensitivities, and more. These imbalances can contribute to whole-body challenges.

Actively relax. This does not mean binge-watching TV. This means meditation, breath work, walking, spending time with your community, gardening, coloring, journaling, and more. Spend time actively relaxing daily, even if you only have 20 minutes.

Move your body daily. Exercise is a powerful, well-studied way to burn off stress chemicals and heal the mind, so just do it! It has been proven to be better than or equal to Prozac for treating depression. Try for 30 minutes of movement daily.

Take the right supplements. Take a multivitamin and nutrients to help balance the stress response, such as vitamin C; the B-complex vitamins, including B6 and B5 or pantothenic acid; zinc; and most important, magnesium, the relaxation mineral. Before you start supplementing, work with a doctor. You can also explore adaptogenic herbs (herbs that help you adapt and balance your response to stress) such as ginseng, Rhodiola rosea, Siberian ginseng, cordyceps, and ashwagandha.

Change Your Beliefs. Examine your beliefs, attitudes, and responses to common situations and consider reframing your point of view to reduce stress. Minimize your exposure to negative influences, gossip, and toxic news. Instead, focus on material that challenges you in a positive way and makes room for growth and expansion. Have you ever been scrolling through social media and found yourself feeling anxious and stressed? This is an example of negative inputs.

These are just a few ways to actively manage stress and improve your health. If you make time for these tools daily, you’re working toward a longer health span and lifespan.
