Does anyone else feel like their body suddenly stopped following the rules in midlife?
I was reviewing some research on Epigenetics this morning, and I wanted to share a visual that helps me when I feel frustrated with my own symptoms.
Imagine your Genetics are a Cookbook. You can't change the recipes inside (your DNA).
But your Lifestyle is a pack of Sticky Notes.
You get to decide which recipes get cooked.
- High stress? That puts a sticky note on the "Store Belly Fat" recipe.
- Poor sleep? That puts a sticky note on the "Brain Fog" recipe.
- Nutrient dense food? That puts a sticky note on the "Radiant Energy" recipe.
Why this matters:
It means you aren't a victim of your age. You are the Editor of your experience.
We don't have to overhaul our whole lives overnight. We just have to change one sticky note at a time.
👇 DISCUSSION:
If you could place a "DO NOT COOK" sticky note on one symptom right now, which one would you choose?
- Brain Fog
- Belly Fat
- 3 AM Insomnia
