Hello ,


"emotional rest is important. Take a break from healing when you need to.  You don't have to be in a constant process of getting yourself together" ~ Alex Elle


I read the above quote yesterday and it landed.  For myself and many of the people I work with there is the constant work of healing, at times it can feel like a full time job on top of all the things we are doing!  


Where can you listen deeply to what your body is telling you, settle in and trust AND find the play, curiosity and joy in healing and the choices you are making to support your personal journey?


"be foolishly in love, because love is all there is." ~ Rumi


Let your feet find the earth and notice the gifts that nature provides in the simplest of ways. 

With Ease,


~ Lynn 🌈

LEARNING

Here’s your weekly drop of health news, tips, and insights to keep you always moving toward your highest level of wellness and abundance. 


📰 In the News

A recently published study in JAMA found that nutritional supplements purchased on Amazon often contained contaminants or an incorrect amount of the ingredients listed. 


The researchers purchased 10 galantamine products (a supplement to support cognition) and found them to contain anywhere from 2% to 110% of the active ingredient on the label. 30% of them were contaminated with bacteria. 


Although nutritional supplements are supposed to provide accurate information on the label, there is no strict regulation or monitoring in the US to ensure that. This is why it’s critical to purchase supplements from trusted sources!


At ISH we recommend supplements through companies that I have vetted and trust.  The supplement industry is huge, and not regulated,  because of this I work with a few companies that have a proven track record, use third party testing as quality control.  I am always exploring and learning about companies and how to source quality products for ISH members.


I can find the same supplements through Amazon cheaper, should I get them there? 

I do not recommend that, mainly because there is now quality control of how the supplements are stored once they leave the factory.  If they are in a warehouse that is not temperature controlled the quality decreases.


I recently listened to a podcast and learned about a supplement, should I take it?  It sounds like it will really help.

I am thrilled there there is so much great information available for people to learn and up-level health through the wellness industry.  It is important to note that podcasts, blogs and websites are speaking to the GENERAL population, and while a supplement may support you, it may not be what you need.  If we are working together, I am always thinking about the BIG picture. Looking through the lens of, "what lifestyle and supplement recommendations will hav a cascading effect to support your body at finding it's way home to whole health".  Typically this is not a supplement for every symptom, because our bodies are complex and often shifting one thing shifts another.  Keep listening and learning to all the great info available and before starting a new supplement, let's chat!

💡Pro Health Tip

Your liver is working around the clock to process chemicals and toxins for elimination. If it doesn’t have the nutrients it needs, detox will slow down and you’ll start to feel the effects on your health. 


Here are some top foods that will give your liver some love!


🔍 Did You Know?

Healthy detoxification is essential for feeling your best! Here are some signs that your detox systems are doing great:


✔️ Fresh breath (without needing gum or mints!) 

✔️ Clear skin (without rashes or outbreaks)

✔️ Easy bowel movements (every day)

✔️ Sound sleep (without waking at 3am)

✔️ Mental clarity (without brain fog!)


If you can’t check all those boxes, don’t worry. There are simple things we can do with food, lifestyle, & functional medicine to support detoxification and get to the root cause. 


Watch my upcoming emails for tips on optimizing your everyday detox pathways.
