We know it's best to eat produce when it's in season. So, today I want to talk about the benefits of Pumpkin & Winter Squash.

They are packed with beta-carotene, a precursor to Vitamin A that supports immune function, eye health, and skin integrity. Their natural sweetness also makes them a versatile base for soups, roasted sides, or even baked goods.

Spaghetti squash has a high content of B vitamins, which support brain function, metabolism, and nerve communication.

At our luncheon today, we discussed how stress affects our bodies and can contribute to a number of health problems. The holidays can add even more stress on top of what we deal with in our daily lives.

Below are 3 simple ways to Reduce Stress because you can’t pour from an empty cup. 💛

1️⃣ Create mini pauses in your day
Take 2–3 minutes to breathe deeply, stretch, or step outside between tasks. Short pauses help lower cortisol and reset your nervous system.

2️⃣ Fuel your body, don’t just feed it
Blood sugar swings can make stress feel worse. Aim for balanced meals with protein, fiber, and healthy fats. Don’t skip meals (especially breakfast!).

3️⃣ Protect your peace with boundaries
It’s okay to say no, delegate tasks, or take a step back. Guard your time and energy. Enjoy time with your loved ones. ✨

Feeling off after daylight savings time?

As the days get shorter and darker earlier, many of us feel that slump of trouble falling asleep, waking up groggy, or just feeling “off.” Our internal clock (circadian rhythm) thrives on consistency, but daylight shifts can throw it for a loop.

Here are a few simple ways to help your body reset naturally:

🕯️ Create a calming evening rhythm
Start dimming lights and winding down about an hour before bed. Try reading, stretching, or sipping a warm herbal tea instead of scrolling your phone.

📱 Reduce blue light before bed
Blue light from screens suppresses melatonin (your sleep hormone). Aim to power down devices at least 30–60 minutes before sleep or use blue-light filters if needed.

☀️ Get morning sunlight
Step outside early in the day to anchor your internal clock. Natural light in the morning helps regulate melatonin and boosts mood and energy. If you can't get morning sun, then use red light therapy.

🛏️ Keep bedtime consistent
Go to bed and wake up around the same time every day. Yes, even on weekends. Your body loves rhythm and routine!

💆‍♀️ Bonus tip: Diffuse calming oils like lavender or cedarwood, or take a few slow, deep breaths before you drift off. Small rituals make a big difference.

Your sleep is foundational to your mood, metabolism, and immune health. Take time to nurture it, especially as the seasons shift. 🌒

🎃🍬 What Sugar Really Does to Our Kids’ Bodies 🍬🎃

Halloween PSA for moms! Halloween is all about costumes, fun, and yes, candy! While sweets are part of childhood (in moderation, of course), it’s important to know what sugar actually does inside our bodies, especially our kids.

📉 Did you know just one sugary treat can suppress your child’s immune system for up to 6 hours? That means their body is less able to fight off viruses and bacteria. Coincidence that cold & flu season is between Halloween and Easter - I think not!

Here’s what sugar does inside our bodies:
❌ Spikes blood sugar → leading to crashes, mood swings, and tantrums
❌ Feeds inflammation → which is linked to eczema, gut issues, and chronic illness
❌ Disrupts the gut microbiome → 70% of immune cells live in the gut, so when the gut is inflamed, immunity decreases
❌ Affects focus + behavior → studies show kids experience attention and hyperactivity changes within minutes of consuming sugar

✨ What we CAN do instead of saying “no candy”?

* Set a candy window (enjoy treats after a protein-rich meal)

* Offer fun swaps like stickers, glow sticks, or small toys

* Flood their bodies with nutrients BEFORE the candy to protect their immunity

🎯 We don’t have to be perfect. We just need to be mindful.

Choosing to support our kids’ immune systems, brains, and gut health during sugar-heavy seasons is one of the most powerful things we can do as moms.

🌿 3 Simple Daily Habits to Strengthen Your Immune System 🌿

With the cold and flu season quickly approaching, is your immune system ready?

Your immune system is your body's built-in defense force. It's constantly working to identify and eliminate viruses, bacteria, and other harmful invaders. When your immune system is strong and balanced, it can detect these threats quickly and launch a response before they have a chance to make you sick.

Here are 3 easy habits you can start today to get our immune system ready:

✅ Flood Your Body with Plant Foods
Whole-food nutrients from plants fuel your immune system at the cellular level! Aim for 8-10 servings of plants (fruits, veggies, berries, nuts, legumes) every day. Don't forget that variety is KEY!

💧 Prioritize Hydration
Your lymphatic system (which removes toxins and carries immune cells) depends on water to function. Start your day with a glass of water before anything else and aim to drink 1/2 your bodyweight in ounces.

😴 Protect Your Sleep
Your body repairs, detoxes, and makes immune cells while you sleep. Aim for 7–9 hours of quality rest to give your body time to recover.

BONUS...

⚠️ Reduce Stress
Chronic stress increases cortisol levels, which suppress your immune system’s ability to detect and fight off viruses. By practicing daily stress-reducing habits like deep breathing, prayer, or gentle movement, you help your immune cells stay active and responsive when threats arise.

✨ Small daily actions = strong long-term protection. Don’t wait until you get sick to support your immune system...start NOW!

A seasonal reset helps you:
✨ Reduce inflammation and bloating

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀

Breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed among women in the US. While no single habit guarantees prevention, research shows how healthy lifestyle choices can make a big difference in overall well-being.

Here are 5 daily habits to incorporate into your life (if you haven't already) to support women's health.

1️⃣ Eat the rainbow – Include plenty of colorful fruits & veggies for antioxidants and phytonutrients.
2️⃣ Move your body – Aim for 30 minutes of movement most days to support circulation, hormones, and stress relief.
3️⃣ Limit toxins – Choose clean skincare & household products.
4️⃣ Prioritize rest – Quality sleep restores your immune system and balances hormones.
5️⃣ Manage stress – Prayer, journaling, breath work, or nature walks can calm your nervous system.

✨ Small steps done consistently can create lasting impact. This month, let’s support ourselves and the women we love by focusing on health and awareness.

💗 What is one habit you’re committed to prioritizing this month?

Women’s health has been overlooked for far too long, leaving many to struggle in silence. Perimenopause typically starts in your 40s, but I've seen symptoms begin as early as 30s.

Food poisoning is the worst! Thankfully, it was short lived. I’m still eating very bland food and trying to get my water intake back to normal.

Here’s what I reached for to help me get through it:

▪️Red light on my whole GI tract (Note: I held it a couple inches from me except when taking this pic.)
▪️PureWave magnet on my liver and stomach
▪️Charcoal
▪️Peppermint EO (I smelled it every time I got nauseous.)
▪️Rest
▪️Hydration (as much as I could)

🌱 Did you know your gut and hormones are deeply connected?

Your gut doesn’t just digest food. It also plays a huge role in hormone balance.

When your gut microbiome is out of balance, it can affect:
✨ Estrogen levels (leading to mood swings, heavy cycles, or hot flashes)
✨ Cortisol regulation (your stress hormone)
✨ Thyroid function (impacting energy + metabolism)

A healthy gut helps your body metabolize and detox hormones properly, keep inflammation in check, and send balanced signals to your brain and body.

That’s why when you work on gut health, you often notice changes in your mood, sleep, energy, and even your cycle. 💃

If you’ve been wondering why your hormones feel “off,” starting with your gut is one of the most powerful first steps.
