Tune in weekly as I, a Functional medicine Certified health Coach, deliver tips and insights that demystify the healing process, guiding you towards the relief you deserve so that you can feel healthy and happy once more.

Over the past few years, I have found myself being drawn to decluttering and minimizing and making space in my life in various ways, and I've been taking the help of different books to do that. And if you want to ask me why, it's to, you know, see more abundance, more joy, more pleasure, and more peace in my life, I think this is something that I've come to value beyond, over and beyond other things. Uh, the material things, um, you know, beyond the point when we once we have reached a position of financial stability, I think these are the things that become more important. Uh, once your day to day basic requirements are taken care of. And for me, living life on my own terms for making mistakes and learning from them, for loving and being loved. These are the things that are really, truly important for me and they bring meaning to my life. But more importantly, making a difference in my own way with the unique strengths, skills, and abilities that I have developed over the last almost, uh, five decades, is what is, again, important to me now. And if you know me at all, you will know that I am a voracious reader and I you know, it's a lot of things that I have learned over the years. How to live life. You know how to cut out the non-essential. You know, declutter and as I talked about, have come from books. By reading about others, how they have succeeded, how they have loved and how they have lived.

And one of the books that I read some time back on decluttering, I really liked it because it goes much beyond the physical decluttering process and making space in in your in one's life is Your spacious self: Clear the clutter and discover who you are. By Stephanie Bennet.

It stands apart because it delves into creating awareness around a mental and emotional clutter as well. And I think this is one of the reasons why many people follow certain strategy or tactics to clear their space, but they are not able to actually succeed or they are not able to sustain. And I think this applies to a health and wellness as well. So, as the author writes in her book,

No matter how minuscule the task or effort, the fact is that clearing anything consciously and gently, as this book teaches, creates an energetic opening, a spaciousness that will work on you slowly and surely to soften your attachment to things, beliefs, and outcomes. Whether your clutter challenge is the stuff spilling out of your closet or the noise spinning around in your head, or both. Here's what I know for sure. Distill to its bare essence.

Clutter and chatter is not the problem. We do not need fixing. Without aware awareness, there is no clearing. Clearing is not about any of these things. It is how you relate to them. It is the space between the problem and the solution, where the real juice is and where the real clearing happens. And the only way to release what isn't working for you is to enter that sometimes scary zone called feeling. Feeling the overwhelm. Resistance, attachment, guilt, worry, despair and shame. Feeling it all without judging it as good or bad, or taking it personally I.

I love the way she has put it all together about what decluttering is really it is, and how clearing the space, clearing our mind, clearing our energy is not about fixing anything. And it's the same thing with our health and wellness. Whether it's our routines. We have to first become aware of how many unnecessary and trivial things we are spending our energy on, and then we can finally start making progress once we start to eliminate those. And that's what I talk about.

That's my new mantra simplify wellness and amplify life, because I find that this is becoming a bigger and bigger problem as we are. Dealing with an information overload.

So I know someone who has multiple health issues, and her poor sleeping habits are a big contributor to them, and it's been like that for many years now. But instead of focusing on this extremely important part of her health, she is, you know, she's a sort of more into what supplements should she take, you know, which diet would be better for her, whether it's this grain or that, or gluten free and which symptom you know, she can work on. But the fact is that unless she understands that, you know, she's a she has to streamline her wellness routine. She has to eliminate the practices and the products, which are not really serving her. And she has to focus on those few that will actually, you know, make a difference. She won't be able to see any real sustainable improvements. And that's exactly what it is. I've known her for many years, and for the past 6 or 7 years, she's been stuck in that same place and things are getting worse. As with any chronic health condition. Uh, you know, either you are moving towards disease or you're moving towards health. It's always a spectrum. It's not one or the other. It's not a black and white thing. You don't get up one day and have a disease. It's been happening for a very long time, and which is why you can always change direction. You can always reverse. You can always move away from disease and towards health.

And later in this episode, I share three simple shifts that can lead to unexpected benefits, which include enhanced energy, greater consistency, and a deeper mind body connection.

And as Henry David Thoreau has said,

As you simplify your life, the laws of the universe will be simpler.

So let's simplify wellness and amplify life together. So let me know if this any of this sounds familiar to you. You're exhausted before your day even begins, so you wake up feeling groggy, groggy, like you actually didn't rest at all, and your mind starts racing with everything that needs to be done and everything you should be doing for your health. So you should be drinking more water. You should be having the right foods, following a certain diet, taking all the right supplements. But instead of feeling over empowered, you feel burdened with the, you know, with the weight of all these things that you need to do or you should do, or your energy crashes during in the during the middle of the day, you grab coffee, maybe a snack to just help you get through the day. But the cycle continues. You have temporary energy spurt, followed by again, another crash. So you don't know whether it's your hormones, your metabolism, or just the way things are for you right now. Or you may even feel like you're doing everything right, but nothing is changing. So you've tried the diets.

You've tried the supplements that people are talking about, the latest drains, the workouts, the wellness hacks, and you're still dealing with brain fog, bloating, or the stubborn weight around your middle. And that's not really budging. And it's really frustrating. It's exhausting. And worst of all, you feel like you're failing because you're trying so hard. And it may be that your wellness routine feels like another job. So instead of feeling nourished and supported by your habits. You feel not trapped by them because you're doing so many things. It's like a never ending checklist and somehow you are left wondering, why don't I feel better? So you struggle to relax and even when you try. So it's not that you're not trying. You are trying meditation. You're trying deep breathing. You're just, you know, like, mindful, uh, drinking a cup of tea, but your mind just won't slow down. So if it sounds familiar, I see you and I hear you and It's something that is so common.

And I promise you, it's not your fault. And the problem is not that you are not trying hard enough. The problem is that your wellness routine may be working against you. And that's exactly what we are going to change today. So in just a moment, I will walk you through three simple shifts that will help you to streamline your wellness routine, eliminate the clutter, and finally unlock the energy that you've been chasing.

So healing is actually not about doing more. It's about doing what actually works. And this is something that most people don't get. So let's dive in straight away. So if you've been trying out different things, you know pretty much everything under the sun special diet supplement, uh, complicated morning routines, and you still wake up feeling tired, sluggish, and wondering why nothing is working. Here is the truth.

The problem isn't you. It's the hidden stress of an overcomplicated wellness routine. So let me explain this. Your body is actually feeling overwhelmed rather than feeling supported. Because when you throw too many things at your body, you're trying too many different things. Especially if you're changing diets frequently or taking multiple supplements without really knowing why you're taking and what what for. And you're forcing yourself into rigid workout routines. You are not giving yourself and your body space to heal. So you're instead putting it under constant threat. And it's this, you know, constant state of stress which keeps your nervous system actually stuck in fight or flight response. And that's the reason you're not feeling any better, or you're focusing on fixing instead of feeling right. As the author says in a book that a lot of times it's we try and fix things. So your wellness approach is built around solving one symptom at a time. So you're taking one supplement for sleep. You're taking one for energy and another one for digestion. But you're missing the bigger picture. And this is so common. You know, uh, because I work, you know, from the functional medicine paradigm where we talk about, uh, addressing the root cause of disease.

But even in the functional medicine space, I see so many practitioners and give so many of their clients a lot of supplements. I mean, I have had a client who was given a list of 30 supplements to take without any explanation what she was taking and for why and why she needed so many supplements in the first place. And it's it's a problem because you're not seeing the bigger picture and you're, you know, taking one for this. You know, it's instead of polypharmacy where you're taking multiple medications. Now you have moved to poly supplementation and your body doesn't heal like this. You know, it's not it doesn't work in isolated parts. So when you stop micromanaging and start listening to your body, that's when the healing happens or your energy leaks are draining your vitality.

So every decision that you're making about your health. Should I try this? Di this is the best supplement. Am I doing enough? This creates a lot of mental clutter. So it's not just the physical aspects of your wellness routine that you need to take care of. You need to also understand what is the mental clutter and chatter going on. So this constant overthinking also drains your energy. More often than you think, or this is very common.

 You are skipping the foundational habits that actually make the difference. You cannot, um, you know, as I say, that you cannot over exercise. You cannot exercise your way out of a bad diet. You cannot supplement your way out of without doing the basic things, whether it's deep sleep, movement, nutrition, stress reduction. These are not very catchy or flashy or glamorous and they don't come, you know, in a pill most of the time. But they are what your body needs the most. So if these aren't solid, your if your foundation is not solid. No amount of superfoods or biohacking is or supplements is going to help.

But the real issue is not that you need to do more. The real issue is that you need to simplify. And the reason you need to simplify is that you can focus on the few essential habits that actually restore your energy and help your body to heal. And that's exactly what we're going to do next. Now let's talk about after this, the three simple shifts that will help you streamline and streamline your wellness routine and help you finally start feeling better without the stress, without the overwhelm, or this constant guessing game. But before that, if you are here, chances are that you've already put in the effort. You're not new to wellness.

 You've been trying different things. You've researched, you've experimented, and you've tried everything that's supposed to work. But despite your best efforts, you're still feeling stuck, exhausted, and frustrated. This is more common than you think. I don't want you to blame yourself. This is what we are constantly taking in from media from in the in, you know, in health influencers, from books that we need to do all these things. That's absolutely not true. You don't need to do everything. You need to do a few things that you need to do them well, and you need to understand why you are doing those things. And because that has to be in line with what your body actually needs.

So let's take a look at what you've probably tried. And this is why it hasn't given you the results that you're looking for.

 One is the supplements spiral. And as I talked about it that I think there are danger of that we are moving from over medicating to over supplementing. This is a big problem as I see in the functional medicine space. Of course, not everyone does this at the same way. Doctors with same with functional medicine practitioners. Not everyone is doing this, but this is happening more and more often right now that, you know, instead of putting in the work, instead of putting in the effort to create a strong, healthy foundation for long term health, we are trying to first, you know, start with supplements like 20 supplements. You take one for this, take one for fatigue, take one for your migraines, take one for I mean, that's not the way you know, it can help you. So you've so you probably spend time and money on supplements hoping that they will be the missing link. So you've taken magnesium for sleep, you've taken adaptogens for stress, and you've taken probiotics for digestion. But instead of feeling better, you're left wondering, am I taking the right supplements? Why do some work for a while and then stop? Or do I need to add more? Change brands. Take them at a different time. These are not the questions that you need to be asking. Initially, yes, at a later stage, when you've done the work, when you've set the foundation, sorry, you will. You know, when you reach the stage where the supplements will be, an add on, when they will be helpful to you. Yes, you can get into this with the help of a practitioner or a functional medicine coach who knows about supplementation. But the reason that it hasn't worked is they can be supportive, but they cannot replace foundational healing. So if your body is running on empty due to chronic stress, poor sleep, or lack of nourishment, no amount of supplementation is going to help.

The second reason that people struggle is because they are chasing the perfect diet. So maybe you've tried cutting out dairy, gluten, or sugar, and maybe you followed keto paleo, intermittent fasting plan based approach, and each time you hope that it could be the answer and you may have even seen some initial improvements. You but eventually you felt restricted because you're constantly thinking about what you can't eat, right? That's that's the most common thing. And you struggle with cravings or low energy or both. And you found yourself in a cycle of strict diet rules that, you know, followed by burnout.  When you're doing this for a long time and then you don't see results, it's really, really demoralizing as well, because healing is not about following someone else's ideal diet. And that's what we typically end up doing, some because veganism has helped somebody else. We start a vegan diet because paleo has helped someone else. We start that too. It is about tuning into what your body actually thrives on because food is meant to nourish you, not stress you out. So if your diet feels like a struggle, it's likely causing you more harm right now than good.

And in fact, in my previous episode, episode 45 Why Listening to your body Works Better Than counting Calories and How to Start I have dug deeper into this topic, and I'm going to share that link with you below.

 And the third reason that these, you know, it doesn't people struggle and you know, it doesn't work when they're trying. Literally everything is overloading on wellness practices. You're trying too many things at the same time. So you are trying morning routine with meditation, journaling, breathwork, stretching, yoga. You're trying workouts that you don't enjoy but you think you should be doing, and you're trying different biohacking. Biohacking techniques like bulletproof coffee, cold showers, red light therapy, sauna, steam. You know you're trying everything right and instead of feeling rejuvenated, you're feeling overwhelmed. Like wellness has literally become your second job. And that's not a good place to be in, because more isn't always better. When wellness starts feeling exhausting, it creates stress instead of relief. Because healing happens when you simplify, not when you stack more practices on top of an already overloaded life. And this is something that I'm very, very aware of when I'm working with my clients.

My clients are women with chronic health conditions, complex chronic health conditions such as autoimmune disease, and they are already overloaded by so many things that they have to take care of. Often they come with multiple diagnoses, so they're already on multiple medications, they're seeing multiple specialists, and it's not going to help them if I, you know, if I add on 20 more things that they need to do. So they need to sit down and figure out what's going to move the needle for them. And that's exactly what we do. And we do it one step at a time. And that's what makes the difference. And the other.

The fourth reason why people don't see the results is that they try to fix individual symptoms instead of focusing the root causes, and unfortunately, they often don't get the guidance on, you know, figuring out how exactly to do this. Because if they are working with a functional, with a conventional, um, approach or a conventional medical professional who's not, uh, who's who doesn't know how to do this, then that's why they are stuck. So which is why often in the case of complex chronic health conditions, while you're already working with the conventional approach, which is your medical, medical, professional, mainstream, you also probably need to work with a functional medicine, either a health coach or a practitioner, depending on what your requirements are.

So if you're trying to fix individual symptoms like sleeping and you have taken some melatonin, or you are trying to figure out why you have low energy and you drink more coffee, or add another supplement, or you have weight gain and you cut calories or try and exercise harder, but the symptoms keep shifting. Today it's this morning or something else day after, it's something else, and you fix one thing and another one pops up and you don't know what's happening.

And the reason is your body isn't a collection of separate problems. It's one interconnected system. And all these symptoms are connected to each other. And your body is not static either. Neither is the immune system. So these things keep on shifting. Right. Even if you take, uh. So I tell my clients, and I'm telling you that even if you take a snapshot in the, in the, in the sense of taking, uh, you know, drawing blood and, uh, you know, figuring out what your markers are today, tomorrow, when you do that, it'll change, Your body is not static. So the problem again is not that you are you're not trying hard enough. The problem is that the wellness industry makes healing feel complicated, and the amount of information that is bombarding you from everywhere, it obviously is not helping you. But the good news is that it hasn't. It doesn't have to be this way.

And in the next part of this episode, I'll finally share with you the three simple shifts that will break, help you break free from the overwhelm, restore your energy, and finally see lasting results. So let's make healing feel easy again. And as I said, and as I've been saying, you don't need more supplements, stricter diets, or another complicated wellness routine. What you need is to clear the clutter. You need to simplify your approach and focus on what will really make a difference. And these three simple shifts will help you streamline and do just that.

So number one, focus on the foundations, not the fixes.

And I keep talking about creating a healthy foundation. It's exactly as if you were trying to construct a tall building. You need the foundation to be very strong. If you want that big building, the you know, the quality, the kind that you want, which will look nice not only from outside but will also be strong from within. You have to lay a proper foundation. It has to be deep enough. Right? That's the that's the case.  Similarly for you, for your health, it is exactly the same thing. So you need to prioritize sleep, nourishment, movement, stress reduction. These are non-negotiable pillars of healing and in fact are in my unique body wise healing framework in which I use in my coaching program,  in my body wise transformation journey, which is a new upgraded program that is coming up. It's a six month coaching program for women with autoimmune and other chronic conditions.

I use the three pillars of simplify, reconnect, and sustain because that's what you know. These three pillars work together. And while I talk about supplements, while I do all of it, it starts with these basics, right? And I'm talking about them right now. I'm giving you exactly what I work with my clients. First one is the sleep. Before you add another supplement, I want you to focus on your sleep hygiene. So because without deep restorative sleep, your body just cannot heal. You can do anything and everything else,  But if you don't get this part in place, you will probably not see the improvements. So you need to aim for 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep, even if it means adjusting your sleeping or evening habits just prior to that. And there are ways that you can wind down in the evening. Then you can start relaxing. You need to have an evening routine, and you need to have a calming bedtime routine so that your body gets the message that it's time to relax. It's time to rest. If your body gets the message that it's there's a thread and it's, you know, there's a stimulating environment and it feels that there is a thread around the corner that typically happens when you watch a lot of news just before going to bed, or there's a lot of violence or we're reading or we're fighting, then your body's getting just the opposite message and you will not get a you will not get a deep, restful sleep.

The other thing is nourish without stress. Instead of obsessing over which diet is the best. Simplify by eating whole, nutrient dense foods that make you feel good without the rigid rules. Start here. And then of course, depending on what what you are dealing with. If you already have existing health issues, like if you already have an autoimmune condition diagnosis, then yes, you need to get off gluten and dairy, but you can start here and you will start seeing some results, some improvements immediately.

The third thing is move. Gently and consistently. You don't need to force high intensity workouts if they are leaving you drained right now. There are times, and especially if you are dealing with a lot, if your body is going through a lot right now, there's a massive flare up. Then you need to find movement that feels good and energizes you. Whether it's walking, stretching, dancing, swimming, yoga, it doesn't matter. The what matters is that you enjoy doing that right. So you need to find a way to move your body that feels good for you. And of course, you need to manage stress daily. Your body cannot heal in a constant state of stress. And you. Most of us don't realize the amount of stress that we, you know, we are dealing we are living with.  Because it's not the stress that we think we have. But this there's an undercurrent of chronic stress. So simple practices like breathwork, nature walks or even setting boundaries around, you know, what you will do and what you will not do can make a huge difference.

So these are things that I, you know, my body is healing framework takes my clients through and we work through that. And the reason it works is because when you stop micromanaging your symptoms and you strengthen the foundations, your body starts to balance itself. It starts to come back into balance, which means your hormones start to come back to balance. It means your nervous system starts to shift from the fight or flight to the rest and digest. All these things happen simultaneously, and that's the beauty. You don't have to work on it one one thing at a time. They are all interconnected. When one thing starts to shift, several other things starts to improve as well.

So the first shift that you need to make is focus on the foundations, not the fixes. The second shift that you need to make is simplify your wellness routine to reduce decision fatigue. Listen, decision fatigue is real. I don't know if you're aware of this term. I came across this term only some some years ago. I wasn't aware that there was anything called decision fatigue. It's how you feel when you have to decide, when you have to decide what clothes to wear, what foods to eat, and the fact which which which toothpaste to buy when you have 50 options in front of you. This is real, right? And it's it's similarly when it comes to a health choices, when you need when you and then when you are in your routine, when you feel that you need to do everything because everybody else is seemingly doing it, whether it's morning routines, strict diet supplements, workout plans, and many other things. Then that is what you end up with.

So this decision fatigue is real. And then you you need to simplify it.  And that will take a lot of stress off your plate. So what you can do is create a simple repeatable routine that removes the guesswork. So you know this is what I'm going to do when I'm waking up. Wake up. When I wake up I'll do this. Then after that I'll do this. And just 2 or 3 things that, you know, that makes sense, that has worked for you, that helps you to feel better during the day. Then again, maybe in the middle of the day, you do a couple of things, then at the end. So you have these things throughout your day to help you to, you know, get the most out of it. These are 3 to 5 non-negotiable habits that actually make you feel good, and you have to do them consistently, right. That's the key here. So for example, if you, you know, get up and drink water first thing in the morning, that's a brilliant way to start the day. And you get some sunlight and you stretch for five minutes and you prioritize protein for breakfast. You know, this is simple, sustainable and effective. So you can do this throughout the day. You create, you take these 3 to 5 steps, not more than that. And you keep doing this. I mean, this is something that you can do every single day. And you of course, ditch the necessary steps. So if a habit supplement of practice is not really making any difference and you can make out, I mean, if you tune in, if you're aware, if you pay attention, you will be able to make out whether it's making a difference or not. And you can choose to let it go because it's not serving you.

And the other thing is that really helps with decision fatigue. And it's not only with wellness routines, but it's pretty much any area of your life is to automate decisions. You can decide on the menu for the entire week. You can set a bedtime alarm so you don't have to remind yourself, I need to go to bed and start winding down. You can schedule a movement class, and I do so many of these things, I actually decide on the menu. Uh, not always, but try and decide on the next day's menu in advance. I do take out my workout clothes, and I know which workout I'll be doing the next day. Just takes the guesswork out in the morning. And then if I that day, for some reason, if I don't feel it working out, up comes a reminder telling me, okay, this is the workout you wanted to do and you're scheduled to do today. And more often than not, I'll end up doing it because it's just come. And it just made it easy for me to just click and just follow that workout. So I do a mix of part three, which is basically ballet infused workout. I do dance because I love dance, dance, workout, I'll do foam rolling, so I'll do a mix and I usually try and put it on my calendar.

That's actually a hack. I'm just sharing with you whatever you think is important, you need to put it on your calendar, especially if you're struggling to do it or if you need some help with it like I do. So I know that in the morning sometimes, you know, my mornings get away from me, so I need to put it on my calendar. So that really, really works. When you put it on your calendar, it's like an appointment with yourself. So when lists actually feel the reason it works is because when when it feels effortless, you actually stick to it.

The third shift is listen to your body, not just the wellness trends. I mean, I don't know how many times I repeat myself that following generic wellness advice is going to only leave you more frustrated because it will not work for you. This is something that I again, I teach my clients in the same framework that I just talked about. Whatever is healing because body awareness, which is the reconnect pillar, the three pillars simplify, reconnect and sustain. The body awareness is under the reconnect pillar because you're connecting with your body, reconnecting with your body, and you're developing a deeper connection with your body's, uh, signals.

 So you can start asking yourself questions like, how does this food make me feel when you are eating? And does this workout energize me or drain me right after a workout? Is this supplement actually helping? So you need to experiment. And if something feels stressful, restrictive, exhausting, it may not be the right approach for you, even if it is working for someone else. So because wellness should feel supportive, not punishing, that's something that you need to understand. And healing is also not about dramatic shifts overnight. It's not a linear movement curve. It's going to have its ups and downs. It's about consistent, intuitive choices that should feel good for you, and it should work for your body. And what happens when my clients get amazed and surprised that when you stop outsourcing your wellness decisions and you start trusting your own body, healing becomes not only natural, it becomes sustainable, and you feel free. It's the most empowering feeling when you have to stop relying on others for each and every decision that you make.

So by simplifying your wellness routine instead of complicating it, you will have more energy than you ever expected. Without stimulants or supplements, you will have consistency without burnout, and you will have less second guessing.
