How I'm Staying Healthy These Days
The Omicron tidal wave hit my house this week. While I can't say we're in the clear for sure, it has made me think a lot about all the things I do to stay healthy. See, all the principles of thyroid-healthy living that we talk about here are also helping me maintain my health through a scary and way-too-long global pandemic.
These principles are what I call...
My 8 Daily Rituals of Thyroid-healthy Living
- Remembering to take my medication and supplements
- Eating nutrient-dense, anti-inflammatory, whole foods
- Staying active without overdoing it
- Supporting my gut health and immune system
- Regular self-care and stress management practices
- Avoiding dietary and environmental toxins
- Fostering community support
- Prioritizing adequate and quality sleep
These, stacked on top of one another, make up the backbone of a thyroid-healthy lifestyle. The benefits of these practices and habits are not only to help us improve our health but maintain it. I am living proof that they work, and I am one of many.
There's no silver bullet and no magic pill when it comes to staying healthy. Truth be told, it took me years to reach a point where this lifestyle became my new normal. Sure, I'm always working on it and tweaking things. Sometimes I start to go off track and need to correct my course. But overall, these are the guiding principles I use to maintain my health.
Doing so has never been more important than it has throughout the pandemic. In this post and episode of Thyroid-healthy Bites, I'm going to share the story of when "The Virus" came to my house and how it helped me connect the dots between my choices, my health, and my big WHY.
