736. 3 Powerful Habits That Balance Your Hormones (Don't Skip These!)
Manage episode 493094410 series 2414604
Here’s the truth most people don’t want to hear: the secret to balanced hormones isn’t in a miracle pill or trendy hack. It’s in the boring basics.
As a women’s health and hormone expert, I want to make sure you’re doing these three simple things consistently.
Prioritize Protein & Real Food
If you’re skipping meals, cutting carbs, or living off coffee and snacks, your hormones are running on empty. Your body needs steady fuel to support hormonal and metabolic functions.
Aim for protein with every meal
Avoid processed and sugary foods
Eat consistently throughout the day
I don’t overthink it—sometimes I prep meals myself, and sometimes I grab healthy options from a local meal service. And I always have a backup in the fridge or freezer, because life happens. My kids have definitely eaten the lunch I was planning to save more times than I can count.
Get Serious About Sleep
Sleep is a hormonal reset button. If you are up late scrolling or surrounded by bright lights, your body struggles to regulate essential hormones like cortisol and melatonin.
Wind down with dim lighting
Read a real book (not a screen)
Only use sleep support after you’ve established a good routine
Forget “go hard or go home.” Your nervous system doesn’t always want a 90-minute bootcamp. When I’m feeling fatigued or overwhelmed, I focus on:
A 10–15 minute walk
Stretching or restorative yoga
Listening to my body and resting when I need it
Movement isn’t punishment—it’s a privilege.
The final layer to these basics:
Seed Cycling A natural way to align with your cycle using food. → Download My Free Seed Cycling Guide
Targeted Tinctures Like Estro Balance, Progesterone Balance, Adrenal Balance, and Sleep Support. These plant-based tools work best when I’m already doing the foundational work.
If you’ve been trying to make healthier changes, start here. Lay the foundation. Grab my Free Seed Cycling Guide and take the next step.
