I have a mini program that I created about 5 years ago called Nourish that teaches you how to optimize your digestion through the lens of Chinese Medicine. I am thinking about gifting to this community because I feel that it's useful information that is just sitting there. It is not through the lens of functional medicine but I believe to be core principles that are often overlooked when optimizing digestion. If I get enough likes and comments here, I will load it for you all 😆

Some of you did your own checkins but wanted to make a post for these days. I took some time this weekend offline and it was very healthy for my nervous system. You can't schedule posts on here (that I am aware of) so thanks for understanding. Day 15 was Digestive Breathing, helping you connect with your breath and stimulate your body’s natural ability to relax and restore. How did this practice feel for you? Did you notice a sense of calm or connection to your body? Day 16 is hydration with a twist. Did today’s hydration check feel different than your usual routine? Did it bring a sense of calm or awareness?

I will be sending a handout for everyone who responds to this post. Today’s practice is wonderfully simple and deeply restorative. Sometimes, the most effective way to reset your nervous system is to let out a good, old-fashioned sigh. Yes, really! How did today’s practice feel for you? Did you notice a shift in your mood or energy?

You’ve been building such a strong foundation of calm and awareness this week. Today, we’re stepping outside—literally—because nothing resets the nervous system quite like connecting with nature. Let me know… What did you notice or feel during your time in nature? Was it calming, energizing, or something else?

Day 3 exercise made me feel more present
