What happens when you feel “off?” 🤔
Most times, you go to the Doctor’s office, receive a diagnosis, and leave with an RX to alleviate the pain or symptom.
 
And that’s the problem 🚩You’re adding to the equation instead of SOLVING it. 
 
Think of your body as if it was a pyramid made up of 3 layers.

If two layers are functioning great, but in the middle layer you’re experiencing gut issues, guess what? What’s going on in the middle layer is going to affect the ground layer and arc eventually as well.
 
Every symptom has a root cause, and that root cause is more times than not -  a deficiency in something. Take gut health, for instance:
 
If you're gut is leaky, you may be deficient in:
• Whole Foods
• Self-care and stress reducing activities
• Protein
• Vitamins and Nutrients
• Sunlight
• Probiotics
• Digestive Enzymes

If you're hormones are imbalanced you may be deficient in:
• Magnesium or Iron
 
If one layer of the pyramid is off, the entire pyramid will feel the affects.

If one organ or system in your body is off, your entire immune system will be as well.

Focus on each layer of the pyramid.
Focus on the deficiency, and you’ll uncover the root cause 🙏🏻

You just fell asleep… yet 3 hours later…you find yourself wide awake.
 
You proceed to use the restroom and get some water thinking it will help…only to find yourself tossing and turning all night.
 
Does this sound familiar?
 
If so, this could be a way your body is communicating to you…and crying for help.
 
Your body may be signaling that your toxic load is far too heavy. 
 
Recent research has revealed that the more toxins you have in your body, the tougher it is to get those much needed 7-9 hours. It also revealed how the quality of our sleep can impact the ability of our brain to clear waste and toxins efficiently. 

This is why I always say not to underestimate the power of sleep! 
 
Why? Because SO many body processes happen during the sleeping hours, including detoxification through the glymphatic system, so getting enough, high quality sleep each night is important for both daily detox and recovering from any toxin-related illness. 
 
When you have an unusual breakout, what do you associate it with? Hormones or Gut health.
 
When you hit a weight loss plateau? Typically a food intolerance or eating too much sugar and processed foods.
 
When you can’t sleep? A heavy toxic burden/drinking alcohol before bedtime etc.
 
Our body is always in communication with us.
 
For tips on how to improve the quality of your sleep, I recommend reducing your toxic load and following the steps outlined in my free guide.

⁣We’re being exposed to hundreds of heavy metals EVERY DAY that have some level of toxic effect on our bodies, and these heavy metals are gradually building up leading to things like:⠀
⠀
🚩No Energy⠀
🚩A lack of focus/concentration⠀
🚩Extreme fatigue⠀
🚩Weight gain⠀
🚩Brain fog⠀
⠀
And a long list of other symptoms.⠀
⠀
A few examples of heavy metals are things like: Lead, Mercury, and Cadmium, and they can be found in your water, toothpaste, perfume, deodorant, and even some over-the-counter meds. ⠀
⠀
To avoid exposure, I always recommend not living with the “Oh, it’s just a little bit of toothpaste,” or “getting a water filtration system isn’t that big of a deal,” or “that’s a little bit of Roundup that I’m spraying on my weeds.” ⠀
⠀
Instead, you want to really choose carefully what you’re breathing in, what you’re putting on your skin, what you’re eating and drinking…and then you want to be actively detoxifying every day❗⠀
⠀
Eating the foods that help to support detoxification and taking the right supplements will help. ⠀
⠀
I outlined a few of my top supplement recommendations in the graphic above 👆🏻 ⠀
