Knock knock...is that hunger?

You wake up and you're hungry. You work for two hours and you're hungry. You come back from lunch and an hour later you're hungry. Or, are you? Asking yourself, "Am I hungry?" is one of the best ways to know whether or not you should…

Good morning. Today I'm feeling the change of season, the cool morning air and the first crisp leaves falling. It feels like a fresh week, a new chance. Perhaps you feel that too...how when a season changes there's a unique opening for us to change as well. You swap your cold weather clothes in and the warm weather clothes out and start to eat more cooked foods vs raw. You may notice a change in your sleep patterns or self care, habits shifting as the season shifts. Perhaps there's intentionality around it, a dreamed up vision of how you want to feel this Fall and what choices and habits will best get you there? I'm dreaming of trail running in a healthy, fit body, digesting gorgeous seasonal foods with ease, and having vibrant energy sun up to sun down. Feeling great doesn't have to mean a ton of sacrifice, just little shifts over time and season by season. ✌💕

I love trail running and hiking, but whenever I'm pushing the inclines my achilles tendon is inclined to speak up 😠. To avoid injury I'm committed to doing my own #prehab releasing tight muscles and fascia before it becomes a problem ⛰ 🏃🏻‍♀️🙌

Sugar cravings, stress, and fatigue are just a few signs our hormones are out of balance. About 75% of women experience PMS symptoms as a result of imbalance and are often prescribed medication. One of our favorite strategy for easing PMS closer to root cause? Adaptogens. 🙌 Try adding some of these into your French press coffee with #adaptagenic coffee from @wearerasa or in your morning smoothie! // #alpinefit #diet #womenshealth #pms #adaptogens

Certain foods and diets have incredible healing benefits. 🥑 If you leave the dinner table not feeling satisfied you may be missing good fats! Try adding more fat into your diet - you may just see that take the edge of your sweet tooth. #alpinefit #nutrition #wellness #microbiome #diet #holistic

Your energy goes where your mind flows 🌀. Change takes more than focused thought and a catchy mantra though. It takes intention coupled with meaningful action. When I first started out as a physical therapist I suffered with back pain and #ibs for years. It stumped my colleagues and medical professionals and it took me flying ✈ to India and studying #ayurveda and then #functionalmedicine to understand the root cause for both issues and get myself on the path to healing. While intention and positivity played a role, there were some key pieces that Western medicine MDs had missed. Don't settle for a pill and a bill. Make sure you choose to work with someone who will address your symptoms and concerns at root cause level. Medicine is changing and it's life-changingly important to be treated by someone who's not complacent and jaded in their practice but rather eager and committed to digging deeper and offering better, more targeted advice and solutions. #dontsettle #youdeservebetter #functionalnutrition #alpinefitlife #physicaltherapy #nutrition #bouldercolorado

It is possible to avoid surgery with the right diagnosis, intervention and plan. Unfortunately, surgery comes with a lot of risks and is highly invasive leaving scar tissue and inflammation. If you're in the fence about surgery, make sure to have your injury checked out and always get a second opinion. #physicaltherapy #mobility #preventsurgery #prevention #healthyjoints #alpinefitlife

I'm on my run-hike (because I'm not someone who can just trail run without stopping for photos and let's be honest to catch my breath 😂) and I find myself on this enchanted little trail with a bubbling brook, whirring hunningbirds, in thick green 🍃woods that remind me of my childhood. My dear friend @vellagardens and I once studied horticultural therapy in #sanfran and had the "real live" therapeutic experience in the Redwood Forest 🌲 where we were mind blown 🤩 by ferns tall enough to tickle our shoulders. What about you? Where have you most felt the therapeutic power of nature?

Eating good food is a start, right? Well, it counts for a lot but it's NOT EVERYTHING. Here's how to get more out of your yummy nutritious food. Eat it with your full attention, with the intention for it to deliver all the goodness to your cells, and chew ☝your food. No kidding! Chewing and being present to your food is more than a practice that sounds like duh, of course 🤦‍♀️ These practices actually turn on the parts of the digestive process needed to properly break down and actually digest your food. Thinking about your food, smelling and anticipating it releases key digestive enzymes (saliva 😋) as well as stimulates the rest and digest nervous system to do the work in the gut to move food along properly so it isn't sitting in your gut, stagnating and turning into toxic bi-products ☠️ (even if it's organic and local and otherwise perfect). #chewyourfood #functionalnutrition #bouldercolorado #parasympatheticnervoussystem #digestivehealth #digestiveenzymes #getafterit #alpinefitlife 📷:@eatgoodfoodandmove

Consider that our ancestors lived on this planet 6 million years ago. Civilization as we know it is only about 6 thousand years old. Industrialization started in the 1800s. What does this mean for your nervous system? “Inhabiting a human nervous system is kind of like living in a house where the doorbell and the burglar alarm make exactly the same sound.”- Ethan Nichtern. When it feels like a lot, it is. Be kind to yourself 💛
