1. Our bodies know

• Our bodies are always speaking to us and telling us when there are imbalances. 

• Healing happens when we get quiet, start to listen, and address the underlying issues.

• We are our own best healers.

2. There are no shortcuts

• Nutrition is the foundation for physical health.

• Pills won’t fix everything. While Western medicine is lifesaving, prescription meds can be a bandaid when it comes to chronic health conditions.

• To be healthy, we need to show up and do the work … especially on our most challenging days!

3. Our path to health can be messy

• One size doesn’t fit all—we each have different bodies, goals, and needs.

• Healing is not a linear process—moving “backwards” can be a form of growth.

• “Fucking up” is a part of the process and can be wildly informative if we allow it to be!

4. It’s not just about food

• Nourishment isn't just for our bodies. We must also nourish our minds and spirits

• The body stores information and emotions, which can manifest as digestive issues, poor immunity and pain.

• Our minds and bodies are intimately connected.

• Honoring our emotions, listening to our internal dialogue, and connecting with self love are all part of healing from the inside > out. 

5. We are all medicine for each other!

• We can’t do this work alone!

• We are all students and teachers.

• Our experiences can serve as mirrors for one another.

• Surround yourself with those who live by example and empower you to trust your own voice and intuition.
