As we look ahead to the coming year, weโ€™re not just growingโ€ฆ
Weโ€™re growing with you. ๐Ÿ’›

We want to know what would truly make your days easier, healthier, and more supported when it comes to detox, stress relief, and body care.

So weโ€™re asking YOU:

๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

Would later evening hours be helpful?
Earlier morning hours?
More walk-in detox sessions?
Quick reset services you can squeeze into a busy day?
New modalities youโ€™ve been wishing we offered?

We already offer a variety of detox and body support services (see graphic), but your feedback helps us know where to shift next.

Your voice shapes what we build here.
Juniper Tree exists to serve you โ€” and we want to serve you better every year. ๐ŸŒฟ

Okay โ€” stay with me. ๐Ÿ˜…
Strep isnโ€™t just a throat thing.

It actually loves to hang out in places most people never consider:
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ the re**al area, literally!
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ lymph nodes
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ skin pores
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ mouth and throat
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ and especially the gut, thriving in the small intestine

Once you know where it hides, a lot of symptoms suddenly make sense.

โ€ข SIBO or chronic bloating
โ€ข Acne that wonโ€™t fully clear
โ€ข Recurrent styes
โ€ข Anxiety or low mood that feels โ€œoffโ€
โ€ข Frequent sinus infections
โ€ข Inflammation that keeps moving around

These can all be connected to underlying strep activity โ€” even when youโ€™re not actively โ€œsick.โ€

You can carry multiple strains of strep at once โ€” sometimes 1โ€ฆ sometimes 10+.
And even when they seem โ€œdormant,โ€ theyโ€™re still active behind the scenes, affecting immunity, mood, skin, digestion, and inflammation.

This is where it gets tricky.

Antibiotics donโ€™t truly remove strep.
They often push it back into its biofilm, where it hides, waits, and resurfaces later โ€” while leaving the microbiome weaker and more vulnerable than before.

So the symptoms may quietโ€ฆ
until they donโ€™t.

Instead of chasing symptoms, we ask:
โ€ข Why is strep able to thrive?
โ€ข Where is it hiding?
โ€ข Whatโ€™s weakening the immune and drainage pathways?

Because when you support the terrain โ€” the gut, lymph, liver, and immune system โ€” the body becomes a place strep canโ€™t comfortably live.

โธป

Your body isnโ€™t failing you.
Itโ€™s communicating.
And when we listen carefully, we can figure out the โ€œwhyโ€โ€ฆ and help restore balance. ๐ŸŒฑ

Histamine isnโ€™t the enemy โ€” itโ€™s a natural chemical your body uses for immunity, digestion, and communication.
But when your drain is clogged (your enzymes canโ€™t clear histamine well)โ€ฆ
or your faucet is stuck on (your mast cells keep releasing it)โ€ฆ
your system floods fast.

And the signs arenโ€™t always the obvious ones.

Here are some unique, โ€œthat makes so much sense nowโ€ symptoms many people never connect to histamine imbalance:

โœจ Flushing after certain foods or drinks
โœจ Feeling wired-but-tired at night
โœจ Random episodes of anxiety or restlessness
โœจ Itchy skin, hives, or heat rashes that come and go
โœจ Head pressure, migraines, or โ€œsinusโ€ pain without a true infection
โœจ Fast heartbeat after meals
โœจ Dizziness when standing
โœจ Sudden intolerance to foods you used to handle fine
โœจ Bloating or nausea that doesnโ€™t match what you ate
โœจ Sensitivity to smells, temperature changes, or chemicals
โœจ Period symptoms that worsen from month to month
โœจ A chronic โ€œfight-or-flightโ€ feeling you canโ€™t explain
โœจ Congestion or chronic throat โ€œtighteningโ€ and having to clear

None of these mean youโ€™re broken.
They mean your bucket is fullโ€ฆ and your body is asking for support.

The good news?
Histamine issues are figure-out-able โ€” and theyโ€™re not random.
There is always a root cause:

๐Ÿ’› Liver congestion
๐Ÿ’› Gut dysbiosis or SIBO
๐Ÿ’› Mold exposure
๐Ÿ’› Nutrient deficits
๐Ÿ’› Stress + nervous system overload
๐Ÿ’› Mast cell activation
๐Ÿ’› Slow drainage pathways

When we identify whatโ€™s clogging the โ€œdrain,โ€ everything shifts โ€” symptoms lighten, food tolerance improves, and the whole system feels calmer again.

At Juniper Tree, this is exactly the work we do:
โœจ understand why your bucket is overflowing
โœจ uncover whatโ€™s driving your histamine load
โœจ support the pathways that help your body clear, calm, and reset

If this post feels a little too familiarโ€ฆ youโ€™re not alone and youโ€™re not imagining it.
We can figure out the โ€œwhyโ€ โ€” and help your body find balance again. ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’›

๐ŸŒฟ You Donโ€™t Always Want to Hear It From Meโ€ฆ So Letโ€™s Ask Facebook. ๐Ÿ˜…

๐Ÿ”Ž Question: Can mold actually make a normal person ragey, panicky, or downright irrational?

๐Ÿ’ธ(read to bottom for !)๐Ÿ’ธ

You know when I gently say things like:
๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ โ€œInflammation from mold can affect mood, impulse control, behavior, and even personality.โ€
โ€ฆpeople look at me like I just diagnosed them with a demon ๐Ÿ˜‚ (IYKYKโ€ฆ)

So instead of hearing it from me, letโ€™s go straight to the people whoโ€™ve lived it that we donโ€™t even know! โฌ‡๏ธ
(Attaching screenshots ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ˜ณ)

๐Ÿฉธ From โ€œI acted like a toddler climbing buildingsโ€ฆโ€
๐Ÿ˜ฑ To โ€œmy dad thought people were strangling himโ€ฆโ€
๐Ÿ˜ก To โ€œeverything sets me off nowโ€ฆโ€
๐Ÿ˜ฃ To โ€œmy panic disorder became unbearableโ€ฆโ€
๐Ÿงฌ To โ€œworse in families with detox/methylation issues like COMT.โ€

๐Ÿ‘‰ The common theme?
When the brain is inflamed, behavior changes.
Not crazy.
Not dramatic.
Not attention-seeking.
Just biology reacting to toxins.

Mold can affect:
๐Ÿง  Brain inflammation + neurotoxicity
๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ Neurotransmitters (dopamine/serotonin/COMT mutation issues)
๐Ÿ’ฃ Histamine + cortisol (fight-or-flight stuck ON)
๐ŸŒช Nervous system sensory overload

And guess whatโ€ฆ
โžก๏ธ When inflammation calms down, people calm down too. ๐Ÿ’š

No shame.
No judgment.
Just bodies doing their best when theyโ€™re overwhelmed.

>>>We have our own LOCAL mold stories too! Just ask, happy to share my personal story.

12/02/2025

๐ŸŒ•โœจ As the full moon approaches on 12/4โ€ฆ your body may start speaking louder than usual.

If your wrists are flaring, going numb, or feeling unusually tight โ€” itโ€™s not always โ€œoveruse.โ€
Sometimes the deeper story is coming from the liverโ€ฆ and whatโ€™s living inside of it.

Yes โ€” parasites often become more active around the full moon.
And when they do, their by-products can inflame the very tissues your wrists depend on.

๐ŸŒฟ How the liver โ†’ wrist connection actually works

Certain parasites (especially fluke types) release compounds that can:
โ€ข irritate and inflame the tendons
โ€ข thicken connective tissue
โ€ข reduce space in the wrist tunnel
โ€ข increase pressure on the nerves + blood vessels

Less space = more compression.
More compression = numbness, tingling, burning, weak grip, and that โ€œmystery carpal tunnelโ€ feeling that comes and goes.

Itโ€™s not random.
Itโ€™s a drainage and inflammation issue thatโ€™s often overlooked.

๐ŸŒฟ Common symptoms linked to liver/parasite congestion:

โœ” Wrist pain
โœ” Hand numbness
โœ” Burning or tingling fingers
โœ” Weak grip
โœ” Nighttime symptoms
โœ” Flare-ups around the full moon

Your hands may be the messenger โ€” not the source.

๐ŸŒฟ Why this often gets missed

Most conventional approaches see wrist symptoms and stop there.
But if the liver is congested, inflamed, or full of parasite waste, the wrists simply become the first place you feel the pressure change.
Especially in phases of higher parasite activityโ€ฆ like the full moon.

๐ŸŒฟ And if your hands go numb without wrist pain?

That often points higher up:
โ€ข brain inflammation
โ€ข heavy metals
โ€ข parasites affecting neurological pathways

Again โ€” your body communicates clearly when we zoom out and look at the whole system.

๐ŸŒ• Your body isnโ€™t whispering right now. Itโ€™s signaling.

Full moons amplify symptoms because they amplify parasite activity.
Supporting the liver, drainage pathways, and parasitic load brings relief that bracing and steroid injections never will.

Support the liver. Open drainage. Address parasites. (Other symptoms & invaders might be getting noisy soon too!)
Thatโ€™s where the real relief begins. ๐ŸŒฟ

๐ŸŒฟ For the moments when youโ€™re one meltdown away โ€” yours or theirs ๐Ÿ˜…๐ŸŒฟ

If youโ€™re a parent (or a human in general), you already know:
Some days feel like a marathonโ€ฆ
others feel like a reality showโ€ฆ
and occasionally, itโ€™s a crime documentary narrated by your own cortisol levels. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ™ƒ

Add in:
โ€ข kids melting down
โ€ข schedules melting down
โ€ข dinner melting down
โ€ข and your sanity barely hanging on by a gluten-free breadcrumb

โ€ฆand suddenly supporting stress hormones sounds a whole lot more important than matching socks. ๐Ÿ˜†

Thatโ€™s why Iโ€™m obsessed with CALM: Cortisol Management.
Itโ€™s like a deep breath in a bottle โ€” for the days when you swear you just cleaned that same messโ€ฆ 17 times.

Your nervous system deserves support too. ๐Ÿ’›

โธป

โœจ What it can help with:

โ€ข Encouraging a balanced stress response (so anxious energy doesnโ€™t stay stuck)
โ€ข Supporting restful sleep and emotional calm (amen.)
โ€ข Helping keep you centered when life is loud, busy, and slightly chaotic
โ€ข Assisting your body in regulating cortisol โ€” the hormone behind stress, mood, inflammation, and sleep

โธป

Some days we need coffee.
Some days we need prayer.
Some days we need all of the aboveโ€ฆ plus a little cortisol support. ๐Ÿ˜‡โœจ
