Yes. So this is where we look at repleting maybe our hormones. Hormone replacement therapy can be a vehicle or a tool to kind of get you back to where you need to be hormonally. But then also we can look at practices. A lot of times during that kind of deregulation or brain, a lot of women will say, my mind just races at night.
Ruminating. So decreasing rumination is where we need to do our work, our homework with quieting the brain down. So that is gonna be your meditation and your mindfulness, taking the screen away before you go to bed. I'm talking to myself as I say that. And then the other thing is actually when we look at CBD, and what it's able to do as well has been helpful.

It is very important, and I'll say this candidly, you have to know where you're sourcing it from. And so CBD, we have endocannabinoid receptors in our bodies, which also contribute to relaxation, is that you have to appreciate where it's being sourced and then seeing... is to have CBN, which is another part of the plant that actually helps with relaxation. So that's another way as well.

Absolutely. I've seen it through and through. I think that even in my personal life, I was starting to see sleep disturbances. And I had to take a real hard stop and being like, what's really going on? And taking that time to, again, reflect on yourself. And I think that is self-care. Sometimes self-care, yeah, can be getting a manicure or a pedicure.

But how am I going to take care of myself requires peeling away the layers of saying, am I contributing to the best version of myself or not? And what are the ways that I can do that? And am I going to pay attention to myself?

What does the thyroid do? The thyroid is this cute little organ that is the metabolic kind of engine of our bodies. It really is... Kind of the, we're going to go at this pace, at this rate. We're going to make things go quick. We're going to make things go slow. Which is why when people have hypo, which is less levels of that thyroid hormone, things are moving slower, right?

Typically, they'll gain a little bit more weight. They're a little bit more sluggish, have fatigue syndromes. And then people who have too much of that thyroid... They're doing things too fast. It's like this metabolic train is like really pumping. It's like the speed train. And you're like, slow it down. So the goal is to keep it in that range where everything is moving right.
