Hello ,
Blink and the weekend is over!
A friend of my told me once "I love Mondays", I paused for a minute and thought, hmmmmm so do I, but I had been fed the narrative of "arrrrggg it's Monday" for so long that I thought I dreaded Mondays too. The truth is I do love Mondays. The start to a fresh week after restoring over the weekend.
Be open to shifting your lens and your paradigm, you might just like the new view.
I am grateful!
What are you creating today?
What feels true to YOUR heart?
Rise with the sun
Bare feet in the earth
Dance every day
Laugh
Listen to the birds
Settle with sunset
With Ease,
~ Lynn 🌈

A new study found that soaking in a hot tub may do more than just help you relax.
It may even outperform saunas for some health benefits!
Researchers found that hot tubs:
|
Raise core body temperature more than dry or infrared saunas
Boost blood flow and support healthy blood pressure
Trigger stronger cardiovascular and immune responses
|
Just a quick note: hot tubs aren’t for everyone.
This study was done with active young adults in their 20s.
Anyone pregnant, managing a chronic condition, or prone to overheating should consult a practitioner first.

Pro Health Tip
|
When I get asked if there’s a diet to fight inflammation, here’s what I say:
Foods are not the same as medications.
Foods will not “block” inflammation or provide immediate pain relief.
But still…
Certain foods interact with inflammatory pathways to help your body respond better.
This is especially helpful for anyone navigating conditions like joint pain, autoimmune issues, or chronic fatigue.
Here are a few supportive strategies:
|
#1 way to eat is seasonally and locally
Crowd out foods that are triggering your inflammation. (eat so many nutrient rich colorful foods that you want less of the inflammatory foods)
Avoid known triggers (like nightshades or gluten if they affect you). Listen to your body and the symptoms after eating certain foods.
Skip charred meats, which can produce inflammatory compounds
Add healthy fats (like olive oil, nuts, and wild salmon)
Load up on colorful fruits & veggies for antioxidants
Eat in a way that balances blood sugar to reduce inflammatory spikes
|
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach.
What works best is a personalized plan based on your unique body.

Not all pain is the same.
If you’ve been dealing with chronic pain as if it’s a short-term injury, this understanding could change everything.
Acute pain (like a sprained ankle or surgery) is short-term and protective.
It’s your body’s alarm system saying, “Hey! Something’s wrong!”
But it resolves with healing.
Chronic pain (like migraines, fibromyalgia, or joint pain) is ongoing and complex.
It persists or keeps coming back for months.
Chronic pain needs a whole-body approach to include:

|
In functional medicine, we ask:
“What’s keeping the alarm system stuck on?”
And we build a plan to support healing from the inside out.
