What happened to you—your diagnosis, your past, your story—has shaped you. But it does not finish you.
Healing begins the moment you choose to grow toward the life that’s waiting to emerge through you.

🦠 Should You Take a Probiotic Every Day?

One of the most common questions we get: “Do I need to be on a probiotic all the time?”
Short answer: not necessarily.

Probiotics can support digestion, immunity, mood, and inflammation — but taking one blindly isn’t always the right move.
If your gut is inflamed, you have SIBO, histamine issues, chronic bloating, or food sensitivities, a probiotic could actually make things worse. 😬

In those cases, we focus first on:
🌿 Calming inflammation
🌿 Repairing the gut lining
🌿 Addressing the root imbalance

But if your gut is generally healthy — and stress, antibiotics, or travel have thrown things off — a targeted probiotic can help maintain balance.

At Flora Naturopathics, we believe in a test-don’t-guess approach to gut health. We use advanced testing to understand what your microbiome really needs — so your plan is as unique as you are.

💚 Because real healing starts with clarity, not guesswork.

🌿 BOTANICAL SPOTLIGHT: Ginkgo 🌿

We spotted this gorgeous ginkgo tree in Midtown Manhattan the other day. New Yorkers will instantly recognize this beautiful (and sometimes stinky) street tree — ginkgos are planted all over the city because they’re incredibly resilient. They can handle air pollution, compact soil, salt, and the tiniest tree beds NYC throws at them.

But ginkgo isn’t just a city survivor.

It’s also one of our favorite botanicals to support neurological health in clinic. Why?

✨ Ginkgo has been shown to:
• support healthy circulation, especially to the brain
• promote focus and cognitive clarity
• provide antioxidant protection for delicate neural tissues
• help maintain healthy aging pathways in the brain

Its leaves have been used for centuries in traditional medicine, and modern research continues to explore its benefits for brain health and resilience.

Basically: as tough and adaptable as the tree is on the streets of NYC, its botanical extract offers similar support internally — helping the brain stay nourished, protected, and sharp.

🌿 A healthier gut starts with a calmer mind. 🌿

Practicing gratitude isn’t just emotional —
it’s biochemical.

Research shows gratitude can:
✅ Lower cortisol (your stress hormone)
✅ Improve HRV (your stress resilience)
✅ Support digestion + gut health via the gut-brain axis

The body listens to your thoughts.
And gratitude is a powerful message of safety. 💚

🌙 Waking Between 2–4 a.m.? Your Cortisol Might Be Calling.

If you’re popping awake around 2–4 a.m., it’s not random — it’s often your hormones talking, specifically cortisol.

Cortisol has a natural rhythm:
✅ Low while you sleep
✅ Rising just before you wake

But when blood sugar dips overnight or stress has been running the show, your body can release cortisol at the wrong time—usually right around that 3 a.m. window.

The result?
✨ Waking up wired or anxious
✨ Feeling exhausted the next morning
✨ And the fatigue itself continues to disrupt your cortisol rhythm

Here’s how to help reset that cycle:
✅ Have a small bedtime snack with protein + healthy fat
My go-to: almond butter on carrot sticks
✅ Get 10 minutes of natural morning light as soon as you wake up

If 3 a.m. wakeups are your thing, save this post — your cortisol is trying to tell you something.

At Flora, we see symptoms and setbacks not as nuisances to silence, but as signals—messages from the body asking us to pause, listen, and learn.
Whether it’s a flare of fatigue, a gut imbalance, or a hormonal swing, these patterns often carry wisdom. Healing begins when we shift from fighting what shows up to asking: What is this here to teach me?

Your body isn’t working against you. It’s guiding you toward balance.
