Bright, bold and berry-beautiful! 💜 This smoothie bowl is not just a treat for the eyes; it’s full of vitamins, antioxidants and texture 🎉. From frozen berries to crunchy seeds, it’s my go-to for a delicious energy boost.
1. Wash, peel and slice the fruit.
2. Add the mixed berries + sliced fruit + water (or juice/kefir) into a blender. Blend until smooth.
3. Serve in bowls. Top with the defrosted berries and sunflower seeds.
4. Drizzle with maple syrup or honey if you’d like a little sweetness.
If you’d rather sip it as a smoothie and it’s too thick, simply add more water to reach your preferred consistency.

Sleep is more than rest- it’s when your body rebalances hormones 🌙
Disrupted sleep can throw off cortisol, insulin, estrogen, progesterone & more.
When your sleep is poor, it affects your hormonal balance and in women, that can ripple into menstrual irregularities, mood swings, PMS, and more.
Functional medicine views sleep as a foundational pillar for hormonal health.
Want to understand how sleep disruption affects your cycle?
Stay with us this week.

✨ Green Goddess Power Bowl ✨
Fuel your body and steady your energy with this functional medicine favorite:
🥗 Ingredients (1–2 servings)
• 1 cup mixed greens (spinach, kale, arugula)
• ½ cup steamed broccoli florets
• ½ avocado, sliced
• 1 salmon fillet (~100–120 g), grilled/baked/pan-seared
• 1 tbsp h**p seeds or chia seeds
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• Juice of ½ lemon
• Salt + cracked black pepper
• Optional: fresh herbs or microgreens
🔪 Instructions
Place the greens as the base of your bowl.
Steam or blanch broccoli (keep it slightly crunchy).
Cook the salmon with light seasoning.
Layer greens, broccoli, avocado, and salmon.
Drizzle olive oil + lemon juice.
Sprinkle h**p or chia seeds. Add salt, pepper, herbs.
🌿 Why this works
• Greens + broccoli = fiber, vitamins & minerals
• Salmon = high-quality protein + anti-inflammatory omega-3s
• Avocado & olive oil = healthy, sustaining fats
• Hemp/chia = extra fiber, protein & healthy fats
• Minimal processing, whole foods = balanced nutrition
💡 Pro Tip: Start your meal with the greens & protein first — this helps stabilize blood sugar and avoid that post-meal crash.
Your meals should energise you, not make you want a nap. 💚

Why Navaratri Fasting Aligns with Functional Medicine
Navaratri is more than ritual, it’s an opportunity for metabolic reset and internal detox, core principles in functional medicine.
When practiced mindfully, fasting:
🪔Gives digestive system a rest → improves gut barrier & microbiome
🪔Lowers inflammation by reducing processed-food load
🪔Encourages cellular repair & autophagy
🪔Supports mental clarity and emotional balance
Start your day with warm lemon water + pinch of rock salt, sip water frequently, and space meals every 3-4 hours.
What is your go-to vrat food that supports your gut health?

Hormones & Sleep / Circadian Rhythm
Sleep isn’t just rest. It’s hormonal reboot time. 🌙💤
When you skip on sleep, your cortisol stays high, melatonin drops, insulin & s*x hormones get out of whack.
Here’s a bedtime routine that actually supports hormones:
– Dim lights 1 hour before bed; no blue light
– Consistent bedtime/wake time even on weekends
– Avoid heavy meals or stimulants late in the evening
Try one of these tonight and see how you feel tomorrow.
Drop a 😴 if you’re making sleep a priority now.

Nutrition & Environmental Toxins: Building Blocks & Blockers
Your hormones are built with what you eat and sabotaged by what you allow into your daily environment. 🛡️
Here’s a quick checklist: what your body needs + what to avoid:
✅ Healthy fats, protein, zinc, magnesium, vitamin D
❌ Processed sugar, BPA/plastic leaching, heavy metals, endocrine disruptors in skincare
Swap one thing today: maybe a non-toxic deodorant, glass instead of plastic, or more omega-3s.
Share your swap; and tag someone who might need this reminder!

Stress, Adrenals & Cortisol: The Invisible Hormonal Hijacker
“You say “I’m stressed”, but do you realise how deeply stress rewires your hormonal system? 😳
🎯 Elevated cortisol throws off thyroid, suppresses s*x hormones, messes with sleep & weight.
Let’s explore 3 adrenal stressors you might be ignoring + what to do instead:
• Over-training or under-eating
• Chronic low-level stress (emails, traffic, noise)
• Lack of restorative rest, meditation or breathing
Try one of these today, tell me which feels doable for you.
Let’s rebuild your stress resilience together.

What if I told you your gut health might be the missing link in your hormone imbalance? 🌱
A disrupted gut = impaired estrogen detox + inflammation + altered mood & sleep.
Here are 3 simple ways to support your gut (and in turn, your hormones):
🌱Add fermented foods or a good probiotic
🌱Increase fiber + remove trigger foods
🌱Hydrate + rest the gut with short fasts or gentle protocols
📸 Double-tap if you’ve had gut issues + share what worked or what didn’t; maybe someone else will benefit.

Healthcare today is 'sickness care'. The missing link which is completely ignored, is 'nutrition'.
