Eating Disorders

I’ve had to make many concessions, living with ME/CFS and fibromyalgia. One of those is eating food that is more convenient, as opposed to fresh.

Fresh foods require washing, chopping, preparing, and cooking, which demands energy that I did not have. I ate fresh fruit and vegetables regularly but not as much as I would’ve liked.

Fast forward to November 2025. I may have found something helpful! My body really craved nutrient dense, easily digestible food, so I stopped by a health food store and purchased about 12 oz of pure juice for $10. It contained celery, apple, cucumber, and ginger. I felt energized! Perhaps it was partly the placebo effect, but it made me crave more, not for the taste but for the health benefits!

Over the years, my health has taken a step up on the ladder rung, so I decided to invest in a $60 easy clean juicer.🤗 This machine extracts the juice from the vegetables and fruit and separates the pulp.

According to my research, drinking this juice on an empty stomach allows your body to quickly use and digest the juice without using as much energy digesting the pulp/fiber (the body needs this, as well😉). Therefore, your body receives just that pure juice form of nutrition. (Please do your own research, and consult with your healthcare practitioner.)

I have been drinking this juice for the past several weeks and have noticed huge improvements in my bowel health.😋 I also feel subtle, gradual changes in my energy/stamina. I can stand longer to make my juices for 3 days in advance, as the juice can last for 72 hours in refrigeration.

I am hoping that with time, this practice will improve my gut health and decrease my cholesterol levels. I will follow up with you with my test results in the future.

Finally, I am elated that I added this regimen to my life! I feel encouraged about my health today and into the future!

What foods, habits, or regimens do you need to include in your life in order to become your very best self?!🥰 Wendy #ChronicFatigue #ChronicFatigueSyndrome

Envy often shows up when the mind forgets its own direction. Comparing yourself to others can quietly create tension, self doubt, and dissatisfaction, even when you are doing well. Peace of mind comes from returning your attention to your own path and trusting that growth does not need to look the same for everyone. The less you measure your life against others, the more grounded and content you begin to feel. Where do you notice comparison stealing your peace the most?

Hi friends!

How are you feeling? What’s taking up most of your attention right now, and what are you hoping to focus on today? 🗒️

Destructive thoughts often go unquestioned, even though they quietly shape how you live your life. Beliefs like “I’m not capable,” “I’m not confident enough,” or “I’ll get rejected” feel true because they come from past experiences, not because they actually reflect who you are now. Learning to identify these thoughts, understand where they came from, and consciously replace them with more supportive self talk can slowly change how you see yourself and what you are willing to attempt. Reframing your thoughts is not about pretending everything is perfect, it is about choosing beliefs that help you move forward instead of keeping you stuck. Which belief do you notice holding you back the most right now?

Happy Monday, Mighties! 🏵️

Every year around this time, there’s a lot of conversation about New Year’s resolutions and intentional goal-setting. While these can be motivating for some, they can also create an unspoken pressure to change parts of our lives—whether or not we have the energy, stamina, or motivation to turn those goals into sustainable habits.

Often, once the “holiday hype” fades, we may find ourselves returning to what feels safest and most comfortable, regardless of the resolutions we’ve made. This can sometimes add feelings of guilt or grief to the goal-setting process.

So let’s take a moment to reflect on what feels better and more supportive for us during this season. Instead of resolutions, what feels more feasible and manageable for you right now?
And if resolutions do work for you, what’s your approach—and why does it fit your lifestyle?

Feel free to share your thoughts and perspectives below! 💭

It can feel tempting to defend yourself, explain your side, or win an argument, but not every situation deserves your emotional energy. Constantly fighting to be right keeps your mind activated and your body tense. Choosing peace does not mean you agree or give up, it means you are prioritizing your mental health over unnecessary stress. The more selective you become with your battles, the calmer and more grounded your life feels. Where in your life could choosing peace bring you relief right now?
