Tell me you’re a Virgo without telling me you’

Tell me you’re a Virgo without telling me you’re a Virgo 😆⁠
⁠
Mini sweet peppers dipped in hummus is one of my go-to snacks, especially for the luteal phase — the tahini in hummus counts towards your #seedcycling intake!⁠
⁠
They’re high in Vitamin C, a key nutrient always but definitely if you’re stressed. Since stress is a major underlying cause of hormone imbalance, you’ll want to prioritize this!⁠
⁠
Also high in another important vitamin for hormone health: B6. It’s notable in this context for helping reduce PMS symptoms by regulating the balance of estrogen to progesterone. It also supports your adrenal (stress) gland function. ⁠
⁠
If you’re low in B6 you might have PMS, low energy, dry skin or other issues, low mood, suppressed immune function, brain fog & more. Sound familiar??⁠
⁠
I always like to start with food first when it comes to feeling better, and this snack is an easy way to work towards that!⁠

I went on a rant for this week’s episode on pandemic diet culture. Give it a listen and feel free to leave a review if you enjoy the show 🙏🏻 I’m taking a little break to be with my family this week so there won’t be an episode next Wednesday, but I will be back the following week. I hope this one resonates with you, let me know what you think!

Hello my loves. I've had a difficult week with som

Hello my loves. I've had a difficult week with some personal things and have been off social to be with my family the last few days, if you’re wondering where I’ve been. However one thing that I'm looking forward to is to gather with you on Wednesday for our next Hormone Harmony class: Fertility for Everyone.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This class will be focused on ovulation and why this mark of fertility is important whether you want children or not. It's filled with many pearls that you never knew about your body. Things you can take with you for life, and pass on to other lunar loved ones along the way.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
We'll cover:⁠⁠
⁠⁠
• What healthy ovulation looks like + why it's important for more than childbearing⁠⁠
⁠⁠
• Birth control's impact on fertility (whether you're currently on it or transitioning off)⁠⁠
⁠⁠
• Factors that impact fertility⁠⁠
⁠⁠
• Understanding your personal signs of fertility so you can better plan to achieve or avoid pregnancy
⁠⁠
• Nutrition for healthy ovulation and a happier period⁠⁠
⁠⁠
RSVP at the link in my bio. You can sign up for just this one class, or sign up for the full series at goodwitchkitchen.net/harmony⁠⁠
⁠⁠
If you sign up for the full series, you'll get recordings of the last 2 weeks of classes + will be entered to win a mini coaching package with me ✨⁠⁠
⁠⁠
See you Wednesday 💖⁠⁠

Not loving all the weight talk surrounding our ~re

Not loving all the weight talk surrounding our ~re-entry~ into society post-vaccine, but I get it. It’s interesting though, we’ve had so much compassion for each other this past year, yet it’s so difficult to apply to ourselves. There is a difference between knowing something intellectually and actually applying it emotionally. There’s a lot of self reflection and acknowledgment of difficult feelings needed to make that leap. But it’s easier to focus on the external, perceived problem because the fix seems less painful, when really it’s damaging to the psyche in the collective in the long run. I’m not immune to this either, but I think it’s important that we recognize this pandemic as trauma and to have compassion for ourselves. This wasn’t meant to be a time to be productive and get fit, it was meant for us to stay safe, and hopefully you’ve been able to. Also, our bodies aren’t meant to stay the same throughout every year and every situation, and the fact that yours got you through this pandemic is a great achievement. I’m proud of you 💜

The go-to solution to anything health-related is o

The go-to solution to anything health-related is often either dietary restriction or medication.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
What if I told you.. you didn't necessarily have to do either? ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I'm not discounting the value of meds, but it's not always the solution. Nor are diets. There are a lot of ~hormone detoxes~ out there and dogma that says you have to let go of specific foods in order to solve period problems, but a lot of those problems are exacerbated by stress. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And restricting our food intake, avoiding foods we like, having to eat in a way that doesn't feel intuitive at all, all of that's just going to cause... more stress. And more period problems.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
On Wednesday this week, I'm teaching a class on Intuition Nutrition. We're going to talk about the principles of intuitive eating, how they relate to your hormone health, and what I believe are some fundamental practices for connecting to your intuition that can help you adapt to this radical shift of ignoring diet culture and honing in on what YOUR inner voice is telling you.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It's happening at 6pm ET but if you can't make it live, you'll get a replay. If you're open to joining, I look forward to meeting you :)⁠⠀

Eating seasonally gives you easier access to more

Eating seasonally gives you easier access to more locally grown foods, and saves you money too!⁠⠀
⁠⠀
These foods are more abundant at this time, so the price goes down. When I'm more organized, I like to plan my meals around seasonal foods so I can maximize my budget (and get maximum flavor — ever tried strawberries in January? they taste like water).⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Need some recipe ideas? On my website you'll find:⁠⠀
⁠⠀
- Brussels Sprouts Salad⁠⠀
- All the Greens Salad (with brussels sprouts and broccoli)⁠⠀
- Asparagus Soup⁠⠀
- Ginger Glazed Chicken with Grilled Asparagus⁠⠀
- Cauliflower and Carrot Soup⁠⠀
+ More⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And when I find some artichokes, I'm definitely going to make my favorite recipe— @hummusapien’s Roasted Artichokes with Creamy Cashew Aioli 😋⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I hope this gives you some ideas for some variety in your week. I can't wait for more to bloom as spring comes!⁠⠀

This week’s podcast episode starts with a rant about goop, a message about what I mean when I say “lunar body,” and then we move into self-care practices and rituals that I suggest for each phase of the menstrual and/or lunar cycle. These recommendations take into account what’s happening in the body (or the sky) to help you externally align with your internal rhythms. Enjoy!

Photo dump of all the things that came from my han

Photo dump of all the things that came from my hands this weekend. From scratch: ravioli (cheese and pancetta), fettuccine (dried on a laundry rack #protip), beef & pork meatballs (mom’s recipe), and German chocolate cookies (not sauerkraut cookies). I kinda lost my interest in cooking this last year thanks to pandemic stress, hence the lack of recipes around here, but I’m slowly getting back into it.....and will have to start again in a few days because now I have a LOT of pasta to eat.
