Frozen shoulder in your 40s?
I wish I had known that hormone changes are a root cause of this painful affliction way back when I was younger. I suffered through two frozen shoulder events.

As hormones shift, estrogen drops affecting joints, fascia, and connective tissue, especially in the shoulder and hip. Frozen shoulder is almost always a hormonal problem, not a wear-and-tear one. If hormones aren’t addressed, the shoulder keeps trying to protect itself.

Have you ever had surgery but then months (or even years) later, you still don't feel completely healed? This is me right now. As many of you know, I had surgery 6 months ago and I am taking steps to allow my body to feel safe again.

“Everything healed… so why don’t I feel like myself?”

Surgery is a major event for the entire body, not just the area operated on. Anesthesia, medications, tissue trauma, disrupted sleep, altered movement, and stress all affect the nervous system, hormones, digestion, circulation, and energy regulation. The body adapts to get you through the acute phase, but adaptation doesn’t always mean full recovery.

After surgery, it’s common to notice lingering fatigue, inflammation, swelling, sleep changes, digestive shifts, weight changes, depression, or increased sensitivity to stress. This doesn’t mean something went wrong. It often means the body is still operating in a protective, recovery-mode state. Healing isn’t just about the incision closing; it’s about restoring communication between systems, rebuilding energy, and helping the body feel safe enough to move out of survival mode.

If you’ve ever thought, “I healed, but I am not the same,” you’re not imagining it. With the right support, the body can continue to recover well beyond the surgical timeline.

Here are some of my naturopathic LIVNLIF tips if you "still don't feel right" since having surgery.

1. Rebuild circulation at the micro level
Post-surgery, blood and lymph flow can be reduced in subtle ways.
• alternating warm/cool showers (30–60 seconds each, end warm)
• gentle rebounding or heel raises
• red light therapy over scars or affected areas
• castor oil packs over abdomen or pelvis (2–4x/week)
These improve local circulation and tissue signaling without stress.

2. Address low-grade inflammation that lingers
Support with:
• omega-3s (2–3 g EPA/DHA daily)
• curcumin (bioavailable form)
• minimizing ultra-processed foods
• adequate protein for tissue repair
This often improves stiffness, swelling, and fatigue.

3. Support detox pathways gently (not aggressive cleanses)
Post-surgical anesthesia burden the liver and gut.
Focus on:
• hydration
• regular bowel movements (magnesium, fiber)
• cruciferous vegetables

4. Normalize adrenal glands
A very common, overlooked issue with fatigue, shakiness, poor sleep, anxiety/ “wired but tired” feeling
Interventions:
• protein with every meal
• LIVNLIF GEM-6 Fermented Mushroom Powder
• morning light exposure
• magnesium and glycine at night

5. Restore gut motility and microbiome balance
Antibiotics + anesthesia slow the gut.
Support with:
• probiotics
• digestive bitters before meals
• LIVNLIF GEM-6 Fermented Mushrooms for the gut microbiome

6. Work with the scar
Even well-healed scars can disrupt movement and nerve signaling.
Support includes:
• gentle scar massage with Vitamin E oil once fully healed
• silicone sheets or gels
• magnesium oil around (not on) scar
• movement that stretches the area gradually
This often improves pain, pulling sensations, and swelling

I'm doing these things for myself right now to have the best chance at complete recovery. DM Rebecca if you want to talk more about this. Share this post with someone that you know is still trying to recover.

Monday Momentum by LIVNLIF
As people head into time with family and loved ones this week, remember: a few simple food swaps can keep you healthy during the holidays. You can support blood sugar, digestion, and energy without feeling deprived.

Instead of showing up with sugar-heavy treats, try bringing a healthier version of a holiday favorite.
Easy swap ideas:
• Replace refined sugar with maple syrup or honey
• Use almond or oat flour instead of white flour
• Add protein or healthy fats
• Focus on real ingredients

No-Bake Chocolate Holiday Bites

Ingredients:
• 1 cup almond flour
• ½ cup almond butter or peanut butter
• ¼ cup maple syrup
• ¼ cup cocoa powder (raw cacao if available)
• 1 tbsp chia seeds or ground flax
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Pinch of sea salt

Optional add-ins:
• Mini dark chocolate chips
• Cinnamon or peppermint extract
• Pomegranate arils (I use the ones in the little cups from Costco)

Directions:
Mix all ingredients until a thick dough forms. Roll into bite-sized balls and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Store chilled.

These bring the chocolate flavor people want while offering fiber, healthy fats, and slower blood sugar response.

You don’t have to give up the treats.
You just upgrade them.

Do your upper arms or thighs have bumpy chicken skin? 🐔This is called keratosis pilaris, and no it’s not acne, so don’t pop it. From a functional perspective, this condition can be linked to how the body handles nutrients, fats, and inflammation. Before attacking it with scrubs or picking, many people see improvement by supporting their skin from the inside. Vitamin A, zinc chelate, omega-3s, probiotic and vitamin D can help normalize how skin cells turn over. When your body has the right building blocks, your skin can finally stop overproducing keratin which causes these bumps. Smooth skin starts in the foods you eat and can often be supported in the supplement cabinet before the skincare aisle. ~ Rebecca

“You’re just anxious.”
🛑 Stop.

Did you know that anesthesia response is highly individual and biologically driven? When it doesn’t work as expected, it’s often a matter of genetics, immune response, or physiology, not fear, exaggeration, or poor coping. As a functional genomics practioner, I am working to help people get the answers about what your genes are telling you.

For example, people with EDS can often have resistance to local anesthesia. Local anesthetics are supposed to sit around a nerve long enough to block pain signals. But with EDS, connective tissue is more loose and permeable, so the medication can literally disperse away from the nerve before it has time to work.

Research has shown that some people with EDS have variations in the SCN9A gene, which affects sodium channels involved in pain signaling. If those channels are shaped differently, certain anesthetics don’t bind effectively, meaning the medication can be given correctly and still fail to stop pain.

This is why some studies and clinical experience suggest that articaine (Septocaine) may work better than lidocaine for some patients. It’s more lipid-soluble, which allows it to pe*****te tissue differently and sometimes provide better pain control.

Imagine knowing exactly why your body responds the way it does, and being empowered to use your voice. That's what a genetics panel can do.

Where are my homeschooling families? Which curriculum do you use and why?

Anyone can buy from Amazon.
But when you shop local, you support a real person who poured their heart into what they offer.
You help keep small businesses alive, families supported, and communities thriving.
This holiday season, thank you for choosing local and giving gifts with meaning.

Polyester is essentially plastic worn directly on the skin, and scientists are increasingly examining how that constant contact may affect human biology. Synthetic fabrics contain additives like phthalates, which are already known to interfere with hormonal signaling.

Research suggests fertility effects may come from a combination of chemical exposure and physical factors. As polyester breaks down, it can shed microplastics that come into close contact with the skin and may enter the body through prolonged exposure.

Another factor under investigation is static electricity. Polyester fabrics generate persistent electrostatic fields, and early studies indicate these fields could subtly influence biological processes over time.

Replace your plastic clothing with natural fibers such as cotton, linen, and wool.

Comment STUDY if you'd like me to DM you some of the studies on polyester's affect on health.

Monday Momentum by LIVNLIF ~
The holidays don’t weaken the immune system. It's the repeated sugar spikes. What you eat over time influences inflammation, blood sugar, and immune resilience far more than any single meal. Momentum comes from making small, supportive choices most days, even during the holidays, so your body stays regulated instead of constantly recovering.

LIVNLIF TIPS:

Before attending a holiday gathering, eat clean protein and quality fat first, because stable blood sugar dramatically reduces cravings.

Hydration matters more than people realize, so drinking water before desserts can blunt false hunger signals.

Restraint from sugar treats is self-support, not restriction. Choosing fewer sweets isn’t about willpower! It's your choice to avoid inflammation, immune suppression, and energy crashes so the body doesn’t spend the holidays in recovery mode.
