Did you enjoy a little too much food and drink last night - and now you've got the gut troubles to prove it? Heavy stomach, nausea, sluggish bowels, heartburn?

No worries! In this episode I'll teach you 4 simple tips to feel better and get your metabolism and energy back on-track quickly.

This topic is super-relevant to our time in the calendar year: Thanksgiving, Christmas parties, holiday gatherings of all kinds. Evenings, filled with more wine, desserts, rich foods, dairy (extra cheese and butter, anyone?), meats, more inflammatory cooking oils, and even fried foods.

These tips are also helpful for anytime you may have unintentionally (or intentionally) eaten more than usual, and been left feeling heavy, sluggish, nauseas – directly afterwards, or even the next day.

I even used these tips last week, after eating out at a restaurant renowned for its fried chicken (whaat?). Needless to say, I felt terrible the following day. But, I had these tips up my sleeve, so I recovered quickly!

You can get back on track quickly by doing a few simple smart things!

Listen and try them this holiday season - or anytime you need to boost your metabolism, energy, and reboot your gut health.

Getting back on track quickly is helpful because you and your body deserve it. It is also especially important if you have:

• Digestive issues - like IBS, GERD, constipation, food sensitivities, etc.
• Hormonal issues like PCOS, PMDD, perimenopause, or fertility issues, or if you are
• Overweight and/ or trying to lose weight – the holidays can be a big trigger time and a slippery slope.

But don't worry, I've got you covered with these simple tips. Here, you are seen, heard, and loved!

My medical-mind has been absolutely blown by what we're uncovering for clients (and myself!) using Functional Medicine Labs.

"Test, Don't Guess" is a saying in Functional Medicine. It means that we need data to truly get to the root cause of persistent, mysterious issues.

I was a skeptic for almost a decade. Afterall, lab testing can be prohibitively expensive. Not to mention, I have helped hundreds of clients experience healthy success, break-throughs, and big benefits without running pricey labs.

But now we are taking holistic treatment to new level and labs are a piece of the puzzle! In this episode I'll tell you:

• Who is lab testing for? Who can it help?

• What kinds of symptoms and issues really necessitate this kind of data for appropriate (and outstanding) holitsic treatment?

• Which labs do I run, and how do I do it more affordably?

• What was my experience with urine hormone testing and HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis)? Spoiler alert: I had several HUGE light-bulb, "Aha" insights with getting this data on myself!

• What can you do to get this kind of data, and how could it change your life?

So get ready for a really fun, illuminating episode!

If you don't do anything else - do this.... In today's episode I am sharing my top 3 simple and 100% CRUCIAL tips to reset your body into a mode of natural healing.

I wish I could go back to my 20s and start these practices then! But alas, we live and learn, and now I get to share these life-changing rituals with you. Try them on in your life, starting today, and witness an energy and metabolic boost, deeper sleep, enhanced moods, and so much more.

Spoiler alert: this isn't about eating a perfect diet or working out "x" number of hours each week. It isn't even about the perfect herbs or meditation for your dosha (Vata, Pitta, or Kapha - and if you don't know yours yet, take my quick quiz and find out HERE).

It's all about rhythm. Creating a flow in your day and your LIFE. By practicing these 3 strategies regularly we create a dependable, grounded foundation of vibrant health. This cues your physiology to turn down the inflammation and calm the overactive nervous system (both of which impede digestion and accelerate aging).

So, listen and absorb this ancient wisdom, and be open to how this new (simple) flow could change your mind, body, and spirit. Then, put it to work in your life. You can do it! Slow, incremental change is the way to true transformation.

It’s one of many people’s  favorite treats – dark chocolate! Mmmm. If you love or CRAVE dark chocolate, this episode is a must listen!!

This bittersweet treat is lower in sugar and higher in an anti-oxidant called flavanols. So, it's a better choice than many other packaged sweets.

  And if you know me, you know it’s my thing. But just like any other sweet treat: dark chocolate spikes our feel-good hormones and is quite craveable. So, it can be a slippery slope for many reasons.

Not to mention: not all chocolates are created equally – or have any health benefits for that matter.

So, today, we'll dig into what your cravings may mean, what to do to address the Root Causes of your cravings, and how to choose the healthiest chocolate.

Make these 2 simple switches to protect yourself and those you love from hormonal issues, estrogen-dependent cancers and obesity...

What do the following things have in common? 

Painful periods, infertility, early menstruation in young girls, reproductive and estrogen-dependent cancers, and obesity?

They all involve the endocrine system! And they are all rampant in our culture, in part due to the constant, high level of exposure to EDCs (endocrine disrupting chemicals). 

These sneaky toxic chemicals have crept into our everyday existence in the modern world, and are also known by scientists as “obesogens". Yes, that word means exactly what it sounds like: they increase your risk of obesity, exponentially! 

In this episode I’ll tell you:

• Which types of chemicals are the most harmful for your hormones, weight and cancer risk, and where they’re commonly found, 
• What makes them so harmful – aka: What scientists and product-makers have known for years – but never makes front-page news
• And most importantly: 2 simple ways you can decrease your toxic load immediately. 

This is such an important episode for every human being. But it is especially vital for all women and children. 

Please empower yourself and every women you know by sharing this information and these tips. It is life-saving, and quality of life-enhancing in the most meaningful way.

Enjoying a drink can be relaxing and fun. But doing it "incorrectly" may disrupt your hormones, sabotage your sleep, drain your energy, and contribute to weight gain. So, today I'll share simple, healthy tips on how to make the most of your drink - if you decide to drink alcohol. If not, props to you! Booze-free is a great way to go; even healthier in many ways.

Some people are floored when they see me enjoy an "adult" beverage. Like, "Wait, wait, wait... I thought you were Miss Perfect?!". This always makes me laugh a bit. Just because I am an Integrative Health Practitioner doesn't mean I'm "perfect" or that any of us needs to be. I think it is possible to have a healthy relationship with alcohol and enjoy it sparingly as part of what may bring you pleasure.

But as get further into my 40s - I am almost 43 years old now - I see many of my peers indulging to a point that it is disrupting their hormones, impeding deep sleep, contributing to anxiety and depression, and sabotaging their weight goals. This compels me to share a holistic view of how it could look, ideally, to enjoy alcohol, here and there.

Today, I'll share an Ayurvedic perspective on drinking. You'll have the opportunity to learn your dosha (your unique body-mind constitution!). Then you'll discover what type of drink is best for you based on your unique mind-body style. I'll also give you 3 simple tips to follow, so you can enjoy a drink mindfully, while still prioritizing your gut, sleep, and hormones.

It can be done! Here's how...

I hope you enjoy this episode. As always, you can find me at www.sarahteeple.com to learn more.

Move over expensive superfood powders! There's a new (actually very ancient) 2-ingredient tea elixir in town, and it should be your go-to drink this Fall season. 

It’s Fall in the midwest! Temps are dropping – and our body’s needs are changing. But this drink is healing and anti-inflammatory to drink in whatever season you may happened to be listening. 

The yummy 2-ingredient drink I am going to tell you about in this episode has transformed my digestion – and that of so many clients. One client, who had loose, urgent stools (which suggested long-time inflammation in her gut) drank the "Pitta" version of this elixir, and after just 1.5 weeks, she began to have healthy formed stool, for the first time in years. No more urgency. No more burning. Just comfortable, healthy daily bowel movements. 

I’ll teach you how to make this simple tea, when to drink it, and how to make it perfect for your gut style in a moment. But first: here’s why I feel so compelled to share it with you…. 

I get tired of superfood trends, esp expensive powdered drinks – some of which you have to buy a subscription before you even know if it works for you (eye roll). Yes, WELLNESS is a big money-making industry! And there is plenty of designer food product marketing to prove it. I emphasize the term "FOOD PRODUCTS", as in manufactured, processed foods. 

Well, this drink is far from a product. But it does contain a special gut-healing herb, and the  most anti-inflammatory healthy fat on earth – AND we can easily adhere it to your digestive style.

Need to find out yours? Go back to BB Ep 8, "What's Your Digestive Style?"and take the quick quiz. But you can keep listening, as I’ll give you the quick and dirty here, to help you choose which common, kitchen pantry herb to use for your healing elixir.
