Join me in a September Cleanse! |

Ready to do a little reset, rebalance and end the summer ready for fall? September is a great time to do a reset cleanse. School is starting for many of us, and it is a good time to clean up and get ready for fall. As we move into the more reflective elements and time of year, focusing on your health and well-being is important to fully support your body. |

This 21-day program (September 18th - October 9th) is designed to help you gain energy, improve sleep quality, decrease inflammation and decrease pain. During this cleanse we clean up and clean out! We start with a simple 3 day reboot that jump starts both cleansing and healing the gut. The key components of this cleanse are to maximize nutrition, rest your digestion and work on rebalancing and rebuilding your gut microbiome. The program starts with 21 days, but the reality is, many of us need longer than that to repopulate and rebalance the gut and shift the hormonal signaling that is getting us off track. What that means is that, often, when the 21 days end you end up feeling so good that you want to keep key elements of the program. And, one of the things that I love about this cleanse is that it is easily transferable to “real life”. Maintaining the probiotic and nutrient supplements and keeping the food elements that you like will help to make this the first cleanse that you ever wanted to integrate into your life. Our gut is not only responsible for digesting and assimilating our food (both the “good” food and the “bad” food) but it also directly influences our thoughts, moods and behaviors. The gut and the brain have a bidirectional line of communication. Loop in the hormonal pathways and we have a complex and amazing system. The products used for this cleanse contain a broad range of targeted prebiotics, probiotics, phytobiotics and postbiotics. These beneficial bacteria work to not only repopulate and “crowd out” the bad bacteria and reset the offline systems but also to help to reestablish the correct hormonal signaling and neurotransmitter communication. Doing this helps with gut health (obviously!) but what that means for you is: better mood, improved sleep, decrease in inflammation, improved digestion, improved stress resiliency, hormone balancing and decreased pain. |
