Part 2 of the Bing Wu 丙午 – 2026 Yang Fire Horse Year with Dr. Meaghan Dishman 🔥🐎

2026 officially ignited on February 4 at Lì Chūn, the Solar New Year, marking the rise of Yang Fire energy. The archetype of the Sun. Big, bright, radiant and impossible to ignore.

This year asks us to repair our relationship with light, not metaphorically but literally. Yang Fire thrives on rhythm. Sunrise and sunset. Sleep and waking. Presence over constant stimulation. When we fall out of sync with natural light cycles, our biology pays the price, making circadian health a foundational theme of 2026.

The invitation is simple: get outside at sunrise, dim lights at night, protect your sleep, reduce artificial light, and create a rhythm your nervous system can trust. You are nature, not separate from it.

With the Horse beneath it, this year carries passion, visibility, momentum and leadership. When balanced, it inspires and uplifts. When unchecked, it burns fast with impatience and flares of temper.

Fire must be tended. Read the full story: https://tinyurl.com/2s4dhhbk

2026 is a year to rise, rest, and rise again.

Part 3 coming soon. 🔥

☀️ Sunny Bend winters are deceiving.

At ~44°N latitude, Bend experiences what scientists call a “Vitamin D Winter” — when the sun’s angle is too low for UVB rays to pe*****te the atmosphere and trigger D production in your skin. (Holick MF, New England Journal of Medicine, 2007)

Even on clear days, your body needs Vitamin D for SO much more than bones:

∙ Hormone balance
∙ Immune support
∙ Heart health
∙ Reduced inflammation
∙ Healthy cell growth
∙ Autoimmune management
∙ Neuromuscular function

Our D3-K2 5,000™ delivers the form your body makes from sunlight, paired with K2 to make sure calcium goes where it belongs.

Sardine Toast > Avocado Toast (at least this week 😉)

High protein.
Rich in omega-3s.
Supportive for heart, brain, and hormone health.
And surprisingly affordable.

Sardines deliver 20–25 grams of protein per tin along with EPA and DHA to help calm inflammation and support cardiovascular health. They’re also a great source of B12 and selenium, and because they’re small fish, they’re naturally low in mercury.

This is the kind of simple lunch that keeps energy steady and cravings in check. Balanced protein and healthy fats make a big difference in how the rest of the day feels.

It’s also endlessly adaptable. Add herbs, pickles, olives, or a little heat depending on what’s in the fridge.

Recipe is in the images.
Save it for later or make it tonight!

🌾 This month’s Community Connections conversation with Kelly Louden of Wild Juniper Sanctuary is extra special, as we recently had the opportunity to visit this Terrebonne, Oregon sanctuary firsthand.

From the smallest indoor details to the land itself, everything is intentionally designed to support rest and nervous system regulation. We left feeling grounded and deeply restored.

Now, let’s get into a little bit of the conversation with Kelly.

Kelly shares that was born from her own healing journey and a deep desire to create a quiet, private place in nature where people can truly pause. After navigating serious health challenges and simplifying her life, she followed a long-held vision to build a sanctuary devoted to restoration, balance, and reconnection.

Rather than offering a structured retreat or traditional spa experience, Kelly intentionally designed Wild Juniper to be agenda-free, a space where guests are invited to slow down, listen inward, and engage with simple, supportive wellness practices at their own pace. Her hope is that guests leave not transformed, but well-rested and carrying small, meaningful shifts back into everyday life.

Read the full blog post conversation, trust us, you’ll want to grab a cup of tea and dive into this: https://inspiredhealthmed.com/community-connections-kelly-louden-of-wild-juniper-sanctuary/?mc_cid=8f6f00982e&mc_eid=86edf95c78

When your sleep is off, everything feels a little off too. Energy, focus, mood, immunity. 🌙

Melatonin 5mg CR is designed to work with your body’s natural rhythm, not knock you out. It uses a smart, two-phase release that gives a gentle nudge to help you fall asleep, followed by steady support through the night so rest feels more natural and sustained.

Beyond better sleep, it supports healthy sleep–wake cycles, brain health and mental clarity, immune function, antioxidant protection, and overall circadian balance. Melatonin is something your body already produces in response to light and darkness, and this formula simply helps maintain healthy levels when stress, screens, travel, or late nights start to throw things off.

How are we almost through the first month of the new year!?!

As January unfolds, we’re inviting a gentler kind of reset. Not big resolutions or a total life overhaul, just a pause. A moment to slow down and check in.

This time of year naturally lends itself to visioning, whether that’s creating a vision board, spending a few quiet minutes journaling, or simply setting an intention for the months ahead.

As always, we’re honored to walk alongside you on your health journey this year and beyond.

Be well,

When dinner needs to happen but time or energy is running low, these turkey meatballs have you covered, nutritiously!

Simple and delicious, they’re an easy way to add high-quality protein to your meals.

Made with lean ground turkey, this recipe delivers key nutrients like B vitamins, zinc, and selenium to support metabolism, immune health, and steady energy. Turkey is naturally lighter than beef and often easier to digest, while still providing the protein needed for balanced blood sugar and muscle support.

We especially love how practical these meatballs are. Make a batch, freeze them, and future-you gets a nourishing meal option on the days cooking from scratch just isn’t happening.

Easy and useful in real life. 🍽️✨ Enjoy!
