⚠️ The Low Energy Cascade 🚩 Your hands are always ⚠️ The Low Energy Cascade

🚩 Your hands are always cold
🚩 Your morning body temp sits around 97.2°F
🚩 You sleep 8 hours and still wake up exhausted
🚩 You eat clean, work out consistently, and do everything “right,” yet your body won’t respond

➡️ This is low energy availability.

Your body has been under constant demand for so long that it begins conserving energy by shutting down anything not essential for survival.

Here’s what happens:
🆘 Thyroid conversion slows and metabolic rate drops
🆘 Circulation tightens, leading to cold hands and feet
🆘 Leptin drops, so hunger stays high despite stored body fat
🆘 Fat burning shuts down, even in a calorie deficit

And here’s where it often gets worse.

When progress stalls, most people add more pressure.
Less food. More cardio. More caffeine. More pushing. 💥

Each of these adds stress without fixing the real issue.

What actually helps:
✅ Eating enough consistently so the body no longer senses threat
✅ Stabilizing blood sugar to reduce repeated cortisol spikes
✅ Allowing true recovery between workouts
✅ Addressing underlying inflammation

Your body does not need more discipline.
It needs more support and resources.

This pattern is reversible when you restore capacity instead of forcing results.

I’ve been active and exercising regularly since hi I’ve been active and exercising regularly since high school. That passion led me from kinesiology to physical therapy to functional medicine, and gave me deep respect for what the body is capable of when it’s truly supported. 💪

But the moment that changed how I think about bone health didn’t happen to me. It happened to my mom. ❤️

She fell on the steps while carrying her dog and fractured her spine. In an instant, everyday life changed. Pain. Fear. Uncertainty about healing, independence, and the future.

👀 It was a wake-up call.

Because fractures aren’t just about bones. They’re about mobility, confidence, independence, and quality of life — and they often happen during ordinary moments, not extreme ones.

That’s why I’m deeply intentional about bone health beyond just calcium or estrogen.

Bone strength is influenced by:
• Muscle strength & balance
• Nutrient absorption & gut health
• Inflammation & stress hormones
• Daily habits that quietly protect — or weaken — the skeleton

🦴 If I ever face a bone-related decision for myself or someone I love, I want to be informed, prepared, and empowered.

Join us TODAY at 2:30 pm PST / 5:30 pm EST as we talk bone health beyond calcium and estrogen with expert speakers Jenn Malecha, Jeff Gunter and Cyndi Stewart.

We’ll cover:
→ What really impacts bone health
→ What to ask before surgery
→ Natural ways to support strong bones at any age

🐌 7 common nutrient deficiencies linked to a slugg 🐌 7 common nutrient deficiencies linked to a sluggish liver

Your liver plays a major role in energy, metabolism, and nutrient processing. When it’s underperforming, deficiencies can quietly develop and leave you feeling depleted.

Here are some of the most common ones I see:
🔹 Vitamin B’s
The liver helps metabolize B6, B12, and folate. When liver function slows, absorption and activation can suffer, contributing to fatigue and brain fog.

🔹 Vitamin D
Your liver converts vitamin D into its active form. A sluggish liver can interfere with this process, leading to low usable vitamin D levels.

🔹 Iron
The liver stores and releases iron as needed. Disruption here can affect oxygen delivery and energy, sometimes showing up as anemia or iron deficiency.

🔹 Zinc
Liver dysfunction can impact zinc balance. Zinc is essential for immune health, skin repair, and hormone support.

🔹 Magnesium
The liver helps regulate magnesium levels. Low magnesium can affect muscles, nerves, sleep quality, and stress resilience.

🔹 Copper
The liver regulates copper metabolism. Imbalances can affect connective tissue, nervous system health, and red blood cell formation.

🔹 Fat-soluble vitamins A, E, and K
The liver stores and utilizes these vitamins. Impaired function may reduce absorption, impacting vision, antioxidant protection, and proper blood clotting.

If your energy feels low and these patterns sound familiar, your body may be asking for deeper support.

💗 In case you need this reminder today: you are st 💗 In case you need this reminder today: you are stronger than you think.

Life can throw unexpected curveballs, and when energy is low, healing can feel impossible to imagine. If today feels like an uphill climb, that is okay. There is still more strength inside of you than you realize.

It’s easy to forget how resilient your body truly is. 

Take a breath and come back to the basics. 

These small actions matter more than you think:
✔️ Hydrate
✔️ Nourish your body with real, supportive food
✔️ Move in a way that feels kind and enjoyable

Health is more than just the physical. It includes your mental and emotional well-being too. Allow yourself to pause, breathe deeply, and find moments of calm even when life feels busy.

Healing is a journey, not a race. It’s okay to have hard days. Just don’t forget how capable your body is when it’s supported with patience and care ✨

✨ Stop fixating on what you can’t control and star ✨ Stop fixating on what you can’t control and start focusing on what you can.

One of the most powerful shifts you can make for your energy and health is learning the difference between what is truly outside your control and what is within your influence.

When we stay focused only on what we can’t change, we often live in a constant state of worry, frustration, or self-blame. That alone is exhausting.

Here are some common examples when it comes to health:

❌ Things I Can’t Control:
➡ Genetics: Your genes play a role in health (but how they express themselves is strongly influenced by nutrition, lifestyle, sleep, and stress)
➡ Age: Aging is innevitable (yet how we age is deeply shaped by movement, nourishment, recovery, and nervous system support)
➡ Environmental factors: We can’t control everything we’re exposed to (but we can support detox pathways, mineral balance, and resilience)
➡ Unforeseen medical conditions: Some things arise unexpectedly (but early support, root-cause care, and lifestyle foundations still matter)

Even when we think things are out of our control, often there are many ways we can make a positive impact. Here are some of them… 

✅ Things I Can Control:
➡ Diet: The quality, timing, and balance of what you eat directly impact energy, hormones, and inflammation.
➡ Physical activity: Consistent, appropriate movement supports circulation, mitochondria, and stress regulation.
➡ Sleep habits: Creating regular sleep rhythms and a calming bedtime routine is within reach.
➡ Stress management: Stress is unavoidable, but you control how you respond to it. Breathwork, mindfulness, and nervous system support make a real difference.

Understanding this balance is key to creating a sustainable, realistic approach to health and energy.

Focus on the controllable pieces. That’s where empowerment lives.
