✨ Healing Happens When You Sit With Jesus ✨

Sometimes the most powerful medicine for bloating isn’t another supplement…

It’s a chair, stillness, and time with Jesus.

When you intentionally sit down, remove distractions, and step away from your phone, your body shifts out of stress mode and into the parasympathetic nervous system—the rest, digest, and heal state God designed you for.

🪑 Why a chair matters for digestion:
• Seated posture supports vagal tone
• Calms the nervous system
• Improves stomach acid production
• Reduces bloating and gut tension
• Signals safety to the body

📵 No phone = no stress input
Constant stimulation keeps cortisol high, which shuts down digestion.
Stillness invites peace. Peace invites healing.

✝️ And when Jesus is present?
Your mind, body, and spirit align.
Anxiety quiets.
Breathing deepens.
Digestion improves.

“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10

✨ Try this today:
Sit in a chair
Feet on the floor
Hands open
No phone
Pray, breathe, and eat slowly
Sometimes healing starts with slowing down and inviting Him in.

I’m a faith-based functional medicine doctor specializing in women’s hormones, insulin resistance, and metabolic healing.

I work with high-capacity women who feel stuck in exhaustion and weight gain despite doing ‘everything right.’ Using functional medicine and biblical principles of rest and rhythm, I help modern Marthas become more like Mary—regulated, restored, and rooted.

We help today’s Marthas heal their hormones, reset metabolism, and return to peace—so they can live like Mary, grounded and whole.
💕M – Metabolic Repair💕
Insulin resistance
Blood sugar regulation
Weight that won’t respond to willpower

💕A – Adrenal & Nervous System Regulation💕
Cortisol rhythms
Anxiety-driven inflammation
Restoring parasympathetic tone

💕R – Reproductive Hormone Balance💕
Perimenopause
PCOS
Estrogen/progesterone imbalance

💕T – Thyroid & Cellular Energy💕
Metabolic slowdown
Fatigue
Cold intolerance, brain fog

💕H – Healing Through Habits & Hormones💕
Daily rhythms
Nutrition without obsession
Gentle consistency

💕A – Alignment with God’s Design💕
Rest
Sabbath principles
Identity over productivity

MARY – Metabolically resilient, Aligned, Rested, Yielded

Under President Trump’s leadership, common sense, scientific integrity, and accountability have been restored to federal food and health policy.

For decades, the Dietary Guidelines favored corporate interests over common-sense, science-driven advice to improve the health of Americans.

That ends today.

The new Dietary Guidelines call for prioritizing high-quality protein, healthy fats, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains—and avoiding highly processed foods and refined carbohydrates.

✨ Faith • Family • Financial & Physical Wellness ✨

This year, Zack ( ) and I are being very intentional about alignment—in our marriage, our faith, and our businesses. 🤍

We’re currently walking through the Dave Ramsey debt-free protocol ourselves and have seen firsthand how financial fitness directly impacts stress, health, and overall well-being. It’s become so clear to us that money health and body health go hand in hand.

Zack is a Christian real estate agent who genuinely loves helping families find their forever home—a place where life, memories, and faith can grow. 🏡

I’m a Christian functional medicine doctor and chiropractor, passionate about helping people experience their most vital, God-designed wellness—physically, mentally, and spiritually. 🌿

As a Christian married couple in business, we’re looking to connect and network with like-minded financial advisors and business owners who share a biblical mindset around stewardship, freedom, and helping others become financially fit.

We truly believe:
➡️ Financial stress is one of the biggest contributors to poor health
➡️ Stewardship is biblical
➡️ God cares about every area of our lives—faith, finances, health, and family

If you’re a Christian financial advisor, business owner, or someone passionate about helping people live free and whole, we’d love to connect this year. Let’s build community, collaborate, and help people thrive—together. 🤝✨

“Process Over Perfection” 🌟 This simple phrase deeply resonates with my health coaching philosophy 🌿, focusing on the power of consistency over the pressure of perfection.
Small, consistent steps over time = lasting health improvement. It’s far more effective than the common all-or-nothing approach!
❄️ Today’s “Process”:
Meal Prep: Planning out this week’s meals while the kids enjoyed ice skating.
Movement: Fitting in a simple 10-minute stretching session before bed, even when a full workout didn’t fit the schedule.
Embracing the process keeps momentum going, one small, manageable step at a time. What small step did you take today? 👇

✨ Healthy Habits ✨

The last 10 days of 2025 have me thinking about habits…which ones have been most helpful this year AND which ones I’d like to incorporate more in 2026 ☺️
Some recent favorite daily habits have been…

🌅 Walks outside (movement + fresh air to benefit mental and physical health)

🍎🥦 Quick & healthy high protein snacks/ meals (helps stabilize blood sugar, energy, and keep sugar cravings manageable)

🧘 Mindfulness moment each day (with or without essential oils- even a few minutes of stillness and slow breathing calms the nervous system)

Would LOVE to know- What are some of your current fave healthy habits?!

We were so thrilled to learn about this amazing local business and to have sat down with the talented owner!

You must check it out 💕

So we posted our peanut butter shake yesterday, only to come to the realization that we posted our peanut butter chocolate mousse cake like two posts ago, and thats all you have really seen...

We do love peanutbutter and chocolate, but not that much 😆

Actually, most of our shakes are herb and fruit-flavored combos. Like our Internal Peace shake, made for anti-stress and anxiety. Its flavor profile is strawberry lavender, and it includes:
- Lavender Buds
- American Ginseng
- Rhodiola Rosea
- Lemon Balm
- Ashwaganda
- Adaptagen Blend
- Strawberries
- Honey

If you don't even know what the heck some of those are, we got you! We will have binders with all the shakes / shake ingredients that explain each herb and the wonders they do for our magical bodies.

In conclusion...
We can definitely say these shakes do somethin'... we started the day with some stressful situations. Safe to say, after testing about 10 of these bad boys out, we were extremely extra chill for the rest of the afternoon 😎
