Martha, take a breath.” 💛

In Luke 10:38–42, Martha is “worried and distracted by many things.”

Sound familiar?

Always serving. Always doing. Always tired.
In functional medicine, we see this all the time — the “Martha pattern”:

✨ Constant go-go-go
✨ Feeling anxious or restless
✨ Trouble slowing down or sleeping
✨ Eventually… total burnout 😞

Sometimes, it’s not just spiritual.

👉 It’s physiological.

When the thyroid is out of balance — especially in women — it can show up as:

🌀 Anxiety, irritability, or racing thoughts (hyperthyroid)
💤 Fatigue, weight gain, brain fog, low mood (hypothyroid)

Martha’s story reminds us that Jesus didn’t shame her for working hard — He invited her to pause, rest, and reconnect.

🕊️ Your worth isn’t in your productivity.
Sometimes the most healing thing you can do — for your soul and your thyroid — is to stop striving and let your body catch its breath.

🩵 Functional Medicine Reflection

If you see yourself in Martha:

Get curious about your energy levels and stress patterns
Support your thyroid with nourishment (selenium, iodine, zinc, rest, prayer, stillness)

Remember: Healing is as much about being as it is about doing

I felt called to incorporate my Christian background into my functional medicine practice. Therefore I will be offering “Meet Me at the Well : Faith Based Functional Medicine”.

If this is also important to you during our meetings- feel free to ask to incorporate this 💕🙏

🌿 Faith-Based Functional Medicine: Healing the Whole Woman 🌿

When it comes to healing, it’s not just about food, labs, or supplements — it’s about faith. 🙏🏽

As women, our health journeys are deeply connected to our hearts and beliefs. True wellness begins when we invite God into every part of our healing — mind, body, and spirit.

In faith-based functional medicine, I help women not only uncover the root causes of their health concerns, but also align their healing with God’s wisdom and design. Because Scripture reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19–20), and caring for them is an act of worship.

When we look to the Word, we find timeless guidance on nourishment and balance:

🥗 “Then God said, ‘I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.’” — Genesis 1:29

🌾 “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” — 1 Corinthians 10:31

🍇 “Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a fattened ox and hatred with it.” — Proverbs 15:17

God designed food to nourish, restore, and bring us closer to His creation. When we pair faith with functional medicine, we move beyond symptom management — we pursue wholeness through Him.
💛 Your faith isn’t separate from your health. It’s the foundation.

If you’re seeking Functional Medicine support from me- know that we can enter into this space during your healing process.

With love-
Dr M
