This simple and amazing tea will help your digestion!

It was world herb day Saturday so let’s celebrate the magic of spices and herbs!

So often I see clients struggling with consipation and gas. And when they do, they can’t focus on eating balanced meals to balance blood sugars.

Improving gut health is not simply about adding CCF tea but it can certainly help!

Ccf (coriander, cumin and fennel) ingredients
2 cups water
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
1 tbsp fennel seeds

Aids in digestion, decreases gas, improves eliminate, increases absorption of nutrients, increases fat burning, and helps detoxify the body.

Amazing that these spices do all this!

Here are 4 things that allow me to stay in the health game.

And ultimately achieve my health goals.

My most successful clients work on mindset with me.

I have had to heal from many health struggles - binge eating, lots of gut issues and high fasting blood sugars - and these 4 mindset shifts have been critical.

If you don’t know where to start to lower your A1c, I suggest working on mindset first.

What kind of approach do you really want and how will you make it last.

If you can’t choose you and your own health, why not? What is your block?

If you want the long-term startegies, support and community to help you reach your goals, I invite you to join Blood Sugar Mastery. Today is the last day to enroll!

The truth is…

I struggle with slowing down and always have
I struggle with just playing to play
I struggle with giving my body rest

I try to practice rest but it always feels indulgent

Because I am addicted to productivity
I have drank the capitalism juice big time

My brain know how important nervous system regulation is for blood sugars and overall health but it still feel hard to do

When you run on adrenaline you feel like you can conquer the world and things can be falling apart inside.

And 6 years ago it caught up to me.

So I completely re-aligned my life to prioritize my health
Because you have decide you want health and healing

But… I have fallen into my old habits the last three years as I started my business
And it impacted my health again. This time my blood sugars

I am working on this same goal - leaning in to rest. Learning to rest and play without guilt!

This time it feels harder…
I realize I just don’t know how to slow down…
I am learning and giving myself permission to rest! Slowly.

Because I once again see the impact on my body. This time my blood sugars and metabolic health!

You have to choose health and healing again & again & again!

Is resting challenging for you?

The solution to lowering your A1c is not cutting carbs, going keto, cutting out carbs or trying Optavia

These diets don’t work long-term for MOST people because they are unsustainable, unrealistic, and not personalized!

So I want you to imagine something with me:

🤩 Imagine you knew exactly what and when to eat to balance your blood sugars WITHOUT removing carbs, sugar, and your favorite culture foods.

🤩 Imagine your energy levels returning to normal so you can keep up with loved ones and do the things you love

🤩 Imagine how it would feel to reverse your diabetes after years of being told it was a life sentence

This is possible for you!

After my program these clients were able to reduce their A1c and reliance on insulin and medications without cutting out carbs or sweets.

Yep you heard that right - they still eat bread and white rice!

If you are ready to stop throwing spaghetti at the wall and want to learn proven strategies that will help you lower A1c while eating carbs, join Blood Sugar Mastery. We start May 8th.

We also go beyond food and talk about exercise, sleep, stress and gut health so we address the root cause of pre-diabetes and diabetes.

If you want to chat more about how we can make this happen send me a DM or join via link in bio
