A few ways I’ve been nourishing my body during my first pregnancy 🌿🥕 Our bodies are brilliantly designed to create these little ones in our womb - I firmly believe we are also brilliantly designed to intuitively know what’s best for us to eat during pregnancy, too. Some pregnancy books and online sources make this whole process sound daunting and scary, of course you want to do what’s best for your baby. But that’s the thing, *you already KNOW, Mama* We’ve always known. Awakening the “Mother” archetype is awakening the one within us who listens fiercely to her intuition. Her gut instinct. Her inner knowing. Not always easy in today’s modern society, but so so vital nonetheless. I was in awe of how coffee, chocolate and sweets naturally sounded disgusting first trimester. How fried food made me queasy, and how I craved specific fruits and veggies during the time that my app would tell me to get more of Vitamin ___ (that happened to be in those fruits I was craving!) My biggest asset is my health, if I have wellness, and health (meaning: whole) I am RICH! I am free to live life fully. Here are some simple ways I prioritize my health: 🌸 Homecooked meals made with whole, real foods 🌸 No seed oils - cooking with butter, olive oil, coconut oil or lard 🌸 Getting plenty of healthy fats - cheese, raw milk, avocado 🌸 Prioritizing protein - local grass fed meat + pasture raised eggs (make sure their feed is non gmo!) 🌸 Getting enough minerals - supplementing by adding shilajit into my morning drink, drinking LMNT, or adding mineralized salt to my drinking water 🌸 ENJOYING what I eat, blessing every part of the meal with gratitude before it goes into my body (as well as baby’s) There’s so much more I could say about my health journey - from being raised vegetarian & never feeling strong, to going vegan and becoming extremely unhealthy on the inside: thyroid issues, severe hormone imbalance, depression, fatigue, gut biome imbalance, debilitating, irregular periods to…Waking up with energy, easy- breezy, beautiful 3 day flows with the full moon, stable moods, eating nearly anything without indigestion, and conceiving our little one on the first try 🌟
