Who else has been bombarded by the negativity lately on the news with coronavirus?
The news can elevate stress levels and stress wrecks our gut!
Please don’t stress out over things we can’t control.
Stress is KILLING YOUR GUT!
It puts us into this tailspin of thoughts filled with constant “what if’s”…
It ends up keeping you in a perpetual negative mindset that literally depletes your gut of all the things it needs to heal.
What you can do instead is change how you react, how you navigate through this world, these experiences and yes these stressors.
If you really want to fix your gut, you are going to need to rewire your brain from the negativity, worry and fear.
If you simply start with reframing your thoughts, your body will step out of “fight or flight” and move into “rest and digest” and on top of that, your actions and mind will be in alignment with your GOALS instead of worry about your fears.
Instead of watching an hour of the news, focus on boosting your immune system:
- Turn off the T.V. and go to bed early. Sleep is so important for keeping our immune system strong. Aim for 8 hours.
- Practice good hygiene
- Get outside for a walk and fresh air
- Eat immune-boosting foods like raw garlic, mushrooms, winter squash, leafy greens, sweet potatoes
- Take probiotics and eat fermented foods – Over 70% of your immune system resides in your gut! Take care of it.
- Supplements like St. Francis Herb Farm Deep Immune
- Vitamin C, D and zinc
- Cut the stress!
