Gut inflammation is one of those phrases that sounds clinical and distant, but if you’ve ever dealt with ongoing bloating, unpredictable digestion, food sensitivities, fatigue, or that vague “my gut just isn’t happy” feeling, you already know what it looks like in real life. Girl sitting on bed, clutching stomach. I see this a lot and experience it myself. People don’t usually say, “I have gut inflammation.” They say things like: “My stomach is always off.” “I react to foods

I keep noticing the same pattern in post-menopausal women, and it doesn’t fit the usual narrative about weight gain. Many of these women are not overeating. They are often eating less than they did earlier in life. Meals get skipped. Portions get smaller. Carbohydrates are reduced or avoided. Training is consistent, sometimes intense. From the outside, it looks disciplined. belly fat And yet, fat around the abdomen becomes increasingly resistant. This is where the conversatio

Sleep keeps coming up. So does eating earlier in the day, leaving a long overnight break without food, and paying attention to how differently people respond to the same habits. Across podcasts, interviews, and books, there is a steady emphasis on consistency, recovery, and not asking the body to operate under constant strain. If you listen to people like Peter Attia or Andrew Huberman, these themes are hard to miss. Attia talks often about sleep as non negotiable, about meta

If you’ve ever felt like your body and mind are out of sync, you’re not alone. Many of us experience times when energy feels off, digestion slows, or mood swings sneak in. Ayurveda, the ancient Indian system of healing, offers a gentle, natural way to bring balance back through understanding your doshas - the unique energies that govern your body and mind. One of the most accessible and effective ways to support this balance is through dosha balancing herbs . In this post, I’

Happy New Year! January carries a strange pressure. The holidays are over, routines are supposed to snap back into place, and suddenly there is an expectation to fix everything at once. Food, energy, weight, habits, sleep. All of it. But the body does not work on calendar dates. What most people need in early January is not a reset. It is a return to rhythm. Why January often feels harder than expected After weeks of disrupted schedules, later meals, richer foods, and less mo

The holidays are a break from routine; and that is part of the point. Meals stretch longer, foods are richer, bedtimes drift, and the usual rhythm of the day loosens. None of that is a problem in itself. What often surprises people is how quickly digestion reacts. Not because anything is wrong, but because digestion is deeply tied to consistency. When timing, sleep, movement, and stress shift, the body notices. Digestive discomfort during the holidays is not a personal failur

There’s a refreshing shift happening in women’s health, especially in midlife. More women are realizing that feeling good isn’t about restriction, extremes, or pushing harder. It’s about nourishment, giving the body what helps it feel steady, energized, and supported. Vegetables at the grocery store. And here’s the fascinating part: research suggests many of us simply aren’t getting the nourishment we think we are. A Mayo Clinic study found that only about one in ten adults  

Most fitness advice circulating online is designed around male physiology. Women try to follow these rules and end up feeling overwhelmed, inflamed, exhausted, or stuck. The issue is not motivation. It is mismatch. Below are several common health and training myths that quietly undermine women’s progress and confidence. Each one overlooks what female physiology actually needs for long-term results, nervous system stability, and metabolic health. Female work out group. Myth 1:

If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of quick fixes and restrictive diets that just don’t work, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too; feeling drained, frustrated, and unsure of what truly supports my health as I move through midlife. What I’ve found is that sustainable wellness isn’t about drastic changes or complicated routines. It’s about simple, consistent practices that honor your body’s natural rhythms and needs. That’s where some of the timeless wisdom of Ayurvedic we

Tofu usually sits in my fridge and stares at me. I buy it with good intentions, then forget what I planned to do with it. But this week, with a few pumpkins from the garden and a chilly evening settling in, I decided to give it a purpose. I sliced a small pumpkin in half, scooped out the seeds (they never go to waste — toss them with olive oil and salt and roast until crisp), and set the halves to roast. Once soft, the flesh became the base for this golden, fragrant soup that

As women, we’re told for years to eat less and move more, but rarely are we taught how to move smarter . When we reach our 40s and beyond, metabolism slows, hormones shift, and what once worked no longer does. This is where strength training becomes more than a workout; it becomes a form of self-preservation. Twisted sit-ups. The S.T.R.O.N.G. Method™  isn’t about lifting heavy just to prove we can; it’s about building a foundation for energy, mobility, and confidence. Strengt
