Stop Chasing Wellness Trends and Start Listening to Your Body
Oct 16, 2026
Every year my body changes, some years more drastically than others.
Focusing on how to stay healthy, the best way for me, has always been my goal.
As the years go by, I get better and better at sifting through the noise (which is loud) out there about what is the “best way”.
It’s not easy to know what will work for you, until you start to actually
Listen. To. Your. Own. Body.
Then do your own tests.
Give them time to work, or not.
Be open to whether they are really working, or you just think they should be working because you spent money on them or someone you trust said you should use/ take them.
They may in fact be great for you!
And then again, maybe not.
They may be fine now but not in a year or so when your body changes… again.
Yep, this peri/ menopause game is not straightforward or simple.
And it’s usually compounded by other factors such as stress, injuries, and our own mind games we play with ourselves.
At the end of the day, you are the one living in your body.
Do some (real) research.
Ask trusted friends.
Ask a LOT of questions.
Test strategically.
Give it time, within reason.
Try not to be influenced to make changes daily and question everything by the mega- noisy space that is midlife health and wellness.
Does it feel right in your core?
What’s your women’s intuition say?
Really… stop and listen.
Not sure what you’re feeling or what to do? Track food/ water, Take photos and write down the date and how you’re feeling (pick a few specific symptoms/ issues) with details.
Use X,Y,Z tools/ supplements/ activities/ workouts…
Go back to your notes each week and write a detailed update for at least 30-60 days.
You will start to notice/ feel changes either + or -.
Then make adjustments.
It’s a process.
Each year I look to find the most simple and effective combination of options that work for me.
Constantly refining and shifting as my body changes.
Sleep,
Movement/ strength
Simple whole food
A few tools and supplements around the edges.
Curious about what’s working for me currently?
Comment COMBO and I’ll share.
Be warned… it’s not some complex, magical system and it all may or may not work for you.
