You’re still here! Hooray!
Hopefully you’re already starting to see a shift in your energy levels, your sleep quality and maybe even how light your body feels. If you aren’t yet... that’s ok, be graceful with yourself and just keep going, our body can achieve amazing things when we love on it with powerful nutrients and plant therapy!
Often as we work toward re-balancing our metabolism, we can experience a state of detox and sluggish feelings. This is pretty normal and should pass if you stick to it. Be sure to drink plenty of water (with your oil of choice) and also apply peppermint, PastTense or even Lavender & Frankincense to your temples and base of neck to help relieve any headaches or irritations you may experience. Another reason you may experience “crash” type symptoms is candida die off. Often times we don't even realize we have an overgrowth of candida (or yeast) in our gut. Out of balance candida can actually make you crave sugar, carbs, and sweets. Candida THRIVE on these foods and release substances into your digestive tract designed to trigger you to feed them. Creepy right?
