Restoring vitality, beauty, and health the way nature intended 🌞🥩🌱 Functional medicine practitioner - herbalist- circadian biology - root cause healing
Extreme disconnection from nature looks like people bagging up their leaves in the autumn and sending them to a landfill rather than letting them naturally decompose so they can return nutrients back into the soil.
Western society normalized kicking children out at 18 and sending grandparents to nursing homes instead of keeping the family intact and supporting one another through all stages of life
If you don’t like the smell of your mans sweat, his BO, or his natural scent, I can almost guarantee you the relationship will not work. You’re not biologically compatible, and shouldn’t have kids. You need to be enamored by your man’s smell.
They normalized kids moving out when they’re 18 and sending grandparents to nursing homes, instead of keeping the family unit intact + supporting one another through all stages of life.
Normalize buying land with your siblings/closest friends and raising your families together. Teach your kids how to farm, cook from scratch, harvest herbal medicine, drive manual, start a fire, preserve food, and any other real world skills your ancestors were taught.
Women need to stop modeling their health after men. You need more sleep than a man. Your hormonal cycle is roughly 28 days compared to the 24hr cycle of a man. You don’t tolerate fasting as well as a man. You aren’t as stress resilient compared to a man. Women are not small men.
Hot take: Having a farmer, rancher, hunter, herbalist, experienced gardener, midwife, or a legit holistic practitioner as a friend will be one of the most invaluable connections to have within the coming years. I cannot emphasize this enough.
Your body will give you clear signs when it’s rejecting a romantic partner.
Acne, inflammation, puffiness, gaining weight, becoming too skinny, anxiety, bloating, constipation, hormonal imbalances, low energy, becoming less attractive- anything that’s related to chronic stress
My type of rich looks like access to the highest quality foods, handmade clothing, big families, acres of farmland, recipe books passed down from your great grandmother, fishing with your dad, cookouts, a home you can pass down to your kids, a mother that doubles as a best friend
Drinking a gallon of water a day is a scam. Once you focus on true hydration you realize that water rich in minerals, raw milk, fruits, bone broth, coconut water, and herbal teas are elite sources of hydration compared to the “drink a gallon a day” nonsense.
After a month of using lions mane I regained access to memories I had long forgotten - I’m talking about mundane memories that seem insignificant but felt remarkable to envision again. A humble mushroom gave me the gift of re-connecting to my younger self. Incredible.
Theory: Birth control is largely responsible for high divorce rates. Imagine being on the pill while dating/engaged, and then coming off of it when you’re ready to have a child and realizing you’re no longer attracted to your spouse.
You need to be leaving your phone at home maxxing. You don’t need to know what random people are doing. You don’t need to know everyone’s polarizing takes. You don’t need music or videos to get you through every task. You don’t need to be available to people 24/7. You need peace.
When I see someone with strong lunulas on their nails, I know they have abundant life force energy. They usually have a strong bloodline, can handle stress well, tend to run hot, and they have energy to give. This people are vital 🌞
You don’t need melatonin or sleeping pills. Put the screens away, go outside, move your body, connect to the earth, watch sunset, eat a nourishing meal, sip on warm tea, take some magnesium, open the windows, lie down, and think about all the things you are grateful for.
What they won’t tell you:
Acne
Bloating
Chronic anxiety/depression
Obesity
Chronic illness
Painful periods
Insomnia
Hair thinning
Low libido
Low energy
Brain fog
Headaches
Craving processed foods
Is not normal.
Just because something is common, doesn’t mean it’s normal.
One of the biggest scams in modern history is companies convincing people to view plants like dandelion + plantain as “weeds” so they’ll have a reason to buy weed killer and poison their lawn. These “weeds” are some of the most accessible forms of medicinal plants available to us
I say this with love - many of you are chronically under eating and that is likely the root cause to your hormonal imbalances and gut issues.
You don’t need greens powders, or herbal formulas - you need to stop fighting your biology. 1,200 calorie diets are for toddlers.
Also you can allow your leaves to compost AND have your yard look “clean”. Designate a compost area and utilize the compost in your yard/garden over time. Same goes for all green waste.
Being on the right side of Twitter will have you drinking raw milk, ditching birth control, replacing vegetable oils with animal fats, filtering your water, eating seasonal fruits, being beautifully tanned, homesteading, and going to farmers markets to find your soul mate.
I see people saying “milk isn’t meant for human consumption”, but proceed to consume nut water with industrial oils, synthetic vitamins, fillers, and artificial flavors.
I had a puffy “moon” face for years that I thought was purely genetics until I realized it was because my cortisol levels were through the roof and my thyroid was struggling.
It took me a year to achieve a significant change - I went from having a pudgy, inflamed face, to having
Hormones influence your appearance. High cortisol can make you appear stressed and rigid. Low thyroid hormones can make you hold onto weight and give you a “moon face”. Low progesterone can cause hair loss. Balanced hormones will create the most attractive version of yourself.
Acne: What Your Doctor Won’t Tell You
1. Acne is common, NOT normal. It is an external symptom of an internal imbalance.
Addressing the internal imbalance is what will cure acne.
It’s a sign of higher intelligence to admit you don’t know enough about a subject to have an opinion, rather than to parrot an opinion that fits your inherent biases.
All the blackpillers with their stagnant livers screaming “wait until your 30” and “you’ll hit the wall at 25” is sooo funny to us girls that are intentionally planning to look like this in our grandma years 🤭
People get so offended when you don’t fear aging the way they
My heart aches for grandparents with generations worth of wisdom that will eventually die with them because younger generations value the digital world more than the physical. Who cares about TikTok dances when you could be inheriting + carrying on the wisdom of your bloodline
My biggest flex is that I talk about how the food system needs to be changed, and I actually put my money where my mouth is, and bought land where I’ll be regenerative farming.
It’s beyond alarming how many people in their 20 - 30s are getting a colon cancer.
The average person is constipated. Doctors prescribe antibiotics and birth control like candy. People think you’re weird if you don’t drink alcohol. People are addicted to ultra-processed and
Our ancestors spent time being idle and resting. They weren’t worried about getting 10k steps, tracking their macros, or hitting their protein goals. The healthiest humans didn’t care to do any of that. They simply lived intuitively and were deeply connected to the natural world.
As a female, I cannot comprehend why so many pad + tampon companies add plastics, fragrances, and other well known endocrine disrupters to their feminine products.
Hot take: People who don’t medically alter their appearance honor themselves daily by preserving the features their ancestors worked so hard to pass down to them.
Rates of postpartum depression are so high largely because of our individualistic society. Women of the past had villages, tribes, and nearby family members to help them raise children. Mothers weren’t isolated and pushed out of society. It was never meant to be done alone..
The best thing a woman can do for her health is to only interact with men who make her feel safe. Anything less than is to be completely rejected. The backbone to healthy feminine energy is being extremely selective with who has access to you.
Being physically warm is one of the biggest health flexes a woman can have.
It’s a biological signal for optimal thyroid function, strong metabolism, ideal levels of progesterone and DHEA, balanced hormones, good circulation, fertility, etc.
We were not designed to suffer with
Caught the flu? It’ll strengthen my immune system. Drank spoiled milk? It’ll diversify my gut microbiome. Trauma? It shaped my character. Injured? My body was designed to heal. Uncomfortable emotions? Feel it, don’t numb it. Failure? I’ll come back stronger. Become resilient ❤️🔥
@babycosette
I think the key difference here compared to what I’m referring to, is that you moved away by choice. I’m glad it strengthened your family relationship!
Facial development, beauty, and health are all directly connected.
“Ive noticed that I have a longer face than most people. I’ve notice that I have a negative canthal tilt (downturned eyes). What can I do to get that fixed? How could I look more like the girl in photo on the
If you drink oat, soy, or almond milk, there is a good chance you are also drinking glyphosate. Not to mention all the other questionable ingredients that plant milks come with.
Don’t let them fool you into thinking these milks are healthy.
People who struggle with jaw clenching or overly developed masseters almost always have tight hips. Cosmetically, people usually opt for botox to help relieve tension and slim the face, but I would prioritize hip mobility. (Parasites can also play a role).
Tight hips = tight jaw
Telling all the girls that makeup trends mimic how we would naturally look at optimal health. Flushed cheeks, tan skin, contoured face, full lips, bright eyes, clear complexion - it can be achieved naturally with balanced hormones, good thyroid function, sunshine, lymphatic
If I suffered with anxiety I would purge social media, avoid the news, up my protein, stock up on holy basil + magnesium, go on nature walks, start a garden, work on my gut health, fix nutrient deficiencies, sunbathe, lift weights, learn from my struggles, become more resilient
I’m begging companies that sell parasite cleanses to stop telling people these are parasites, when it’s actually damaged intestinal lining + mucus. People refer to these as “rope worms”, but when scientists tested them, they came back matching human DNA.
When you’re in a chronically stressed state, the survival non-essentials are the first to diminish:
Hair
Libido
Fertility
Muscle
Collagen
Strong nails
Glowing skin
Notice how this list correlates with characteristics that make people attractive. Stress makes you ugly.
It’s only a matter of time before the people who were influenced into homesteading and country living exit in mass because they didn’t realize how much work it takes and how quickly it can completely decimate your bank account. Never revolve your life around internet trends.
We need to stop demonizing the sun, and start questioning chemical
sunscreens, poor diet, soaps, makeup, lotions, stagnant lymph,
perfumes, vegetable oils, chronic inflammation, pharmaceuticals, and all the other substances/factors that impact our skin + how it reacts to the sun.
Doctors will hand out birth control like candy without ever telling women it depletes them of the very nutrients needed to conceive/have a healthy child.
10 years later these same women are left with no answers as to why they can’t conceive.
Call me crazy but that’s criminal.
“Have a slutty phase”
Im sorry, what? Sex is a powerful energy exchange that has long lasting impacts.
Protect your emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual health by truly vetting someone before giving access to your body + exposing yourself to their energy in that way.
@CedarAndHoney
I can totally understand that. I think a big issue with western culture is how unhealthy we are as a population as well. If our medical system focused more on preventative medicine, a lot of situations like the one you mentioned could be avoided
Miscarriages are going to be at an all time high in the near future.
The “fertility” industry is going to boom because people will struggle to reproduce naturally.
I keep seeing posts about how “they don’t make women like they did in the 90s” - and this could also be said about men.
The 90s seems to have been the last decade where wide palates, well developed mid faces, and strong jawlines were more common in the west.
A well developed
I always feel off about celebrating New Years in the middle of winter. The rhythm of nature makes it clear that it starts in spring. The days get longer, flowers are blooming, bees are buzzing, animals birthing babies, warmer days, sprouting plants, it’s a season of renewal
I am a holistic health girly, but I do not understand the unhygienic takes I’ve been seeing on this app lately. For the love of God brush your teeth, use soap, scrub your body, address your BO, brush your hair, don’t “free bleed” in public, and wear shoes in stores.
I keep seeing women distraught over being in debt while having their nails done, lip filler, Botox, eyelash extensions, etc. I mean this with LOVE when I say luxury services have never been a necessity and it’s not normal to go into debt for them!!
"If America could be, once again, a
nation of self-reliant farmers, craftsmen, hunters, ranchers and artists, then the rich would have little power to dominate others. Neither to serve nor rule. That
was the American Dream."
-Edward Abby
If I was depressed, I would revolve my life around working in the sun, ocean swimming, home cooking, caring for animals, learning new skills, connecting with family, investing in my health, putting effort into my appearance, fixing my posture, trading social media for adventures
This article that came out about Ballerina Farm (if written in good faith) has me really concerned for Hannah.
Her husband goes on record saying that she’ll become so ill from exhaustion that she can’t get out of bed for a WEEK.
I’ve said this many times - an overwhelming theme
Most people are not inherently dumb, stupid, mindless, unproductive, or fragile - they’re inflamed, high glutamate, low GABA, have overly excited nervous systems, their thyroids are tanked, they’re body temperatures are low, estrogen is through the roof, their airways are narrow,
How it feels being a girl who eats oxtail soup, gelatinous stews, or steak and eggs for breakfast in a world full of avocado toast, chia seed pudding, and granola
While on hormonal contraceptives,
many women end up choosing a mate who is more genetically alike than different, which goes against our evolutionary instincts. Women can choose a good mate based on smell. But while on the pill, this natural instinct seems to be disrupted.
Why strip women of their biology, nuke their gut with pharmaceuticals, disrupt their hormones, and have zero care for long term affects, when you could simply address the root causes to their health complaints?
The state of modern medicine is barbaric and an absolute disgrace.
Unless you’re trying to conceive there’s no medical reason to have a period. We have an array of pharmaceutical and surgical options for minimizing or eliminating periods, which are at best inconvenient and at worst disabling. Seriously fuck menstruation
The unfortunate reality is that many women are wasting the most fertile years of their lives dating a man they only find attractive because they’re on birth control.
Returning to a natural way of living does not mean returning to the past.
It means reconnecting to the wisdom of our ancestors and bringing it forward with us into the future.
Going long periods of time without washing your hair will not “train” it to be less oily. Allowing oil and pollutants to build up on your scalp can actually cause hair loss and and scalp damage long term.
You’re being convinced to walk around with greasy hair when you should
Schools won’t teach you how to grow food, track your cycle, budget, cook, etc. and claim you have ADHD because you can’t pay attention, when really they’re shoving boring, useless info at you all day long in an environment that mimics a prison.
*End rant*
Your hormones influence how you view the world. Low thyroid hormones can make everything seem depressing. High cortisol can make simple tasks anxiety inducing. Adrenaline can make you feel unstoppable until it comes crashing down. Optimize your hormones, optimize your world.
All you have to do is let your rice cool down and it massively reduces glucose spikes because it turns into resistant starch. Pairing it with protein or simply being physically active helps reduce the spike even further.
Practical advice > fearing whole foods
All you have to do is intermittent fast, workout 6x a week, and do ice baths and your health will skyrocket 150%. Luteal phase? Hormonal cycle? Cortisol? Fertility? What are you even talking about?
Listen, women are just smaller versions of men. If you follow what I do you’ll
I used to be so proud that I had no addictions or vices in my life - until I learned about cortisol addiction and how it was ruining my health, happiness, and my relationship to the world around me.
What short term cortisol addiction can feel like:
- Low appetite
- Feeling
When you’re young you should do everything you can to physically experience the peak of your genetics.
Hike the difficult trails, learn a new skill, compete in a sport, go on extended camping trips, backpack around Europe, build something you never thought you could, swim in as
This might be controversial but I would never use this soap on my body. It’s a recipe to wreck your skin barrier and turn your hair into straw (even when diluted)
However, it’s actually one of my go to ingredients to make natural pesticides and herbicides for my farm.
“But I’m constantly stressed I can’t figure out how to lower my cortisol!”
Have you tried being silly goose, laughing so hard your stomach hurts, romanticizing the mundane, falling in love with the blessings you’ve taken for granted, putting a smile on a strangers face, starting
Thinking about how it should be *illegal* for doctors to prescribe hormonal contraceptives without informing patients that it’s classified as a Group 1 Carcinogen.
Don’t tell your favorite health influencer…but I wash my hair about 5x a week in order to keep my scalp healthy and my hair long.
Going extended periods of time without washing your hair can actually cause scalp issues and even hair loss- especially if you live in a city
