Fed up of fighting the sniffles, battling a sore throat, feeling run down, and throwing vitamin C and cold and flu tablets back like they're lollies? Then, oh boy, are you going to love this episode. The time has come where you can finally stop falling sick every winter (or all the time). And even more amazing, is the answer is super simple: boost your immunity. Cold and flu tablets are great to reduce your symptoms, but they're not going to stop you from getting sick the next time a bug floats your way. What will stop those bugs from causing a flu, cold, cough, achy bod or a diarrhoea party is building your immune system up. Once you do, your chances of falling sick in the first place dramatically reduce. Meaning no sicknesses, even when someone coughs or sneezes a snot rocket in your face. Let's dive in and I'll show you how easy it is to boost your immunity up (and how easy it is to not get sick again!). Let's get you feeling healthier + happier.

A few things have changed around here, the most obvious being the new brand spanking name for the poddy: Healthyish + Happy podcast. But one other - maybe not so obvious change - is me. In todays episode, to mark the start of a new era, I want to share with you the truth of what happened these past 18 months. Because, in 2022, I got sucked into a very bad yet common invisible spiral which eventually left me feeling flat, lost, confused and off...with a sprinkle of being scared as fudge. (A spiral I'm sure you'll resonate with) Then cue early 2023: when I healed and found my true self again despite it being a really tough year personally. Now? Holy fudgeballs, I've never felt so aligned, healthy and happy despite all the shiz going on. Like, the kind of disgusting happiness where you often cry because you're so happy. Yep, I've now joined that party. Tune into the first episode of the new Healthyish + Happy podcast era to hear the truth of what went on behind the scenes. And while it's by no means a new me you'll be seeing. It's the real me. I can't wait for you to meet her. It's good to be back.

Are you feeling anxious and you don't know why? Do you feel numb/meh/bleh and not like yourself and can't be bothered with anything lately? Have you been feeling so sluggish that you're struggling to wake in the morning and could easily nap in the day? You might think your stress hormone cortisol is super high, but I bet my bottom dollar it's actually too low. Low cortisol issues are massively overlooked because we generally assume cortisol is high ALL THE TIME. But if tiredness and low moods are in the picture - then you may be looking at it all wrong. This also means a lot of support & supplements to REDUCE cortisol are causing more harm than good. How hasn't this been flagged in your blood test results? #1. Cortisol isn't generally tested unless you ask #2. For your blood test to flag a low cortisol - your cortisol has to be MASSIVELY struggling. Aka. you'll be feeling so flat emotionally, physically and mentally. And usually placed on antidepressant medication before having your cortisol looked at. But there is a much more specific reference range you can look for with cortisol to know it's healthy and doing well and NOT causing your tiredness, anxiousness or meh mood. So let's figure out if that's you! Let's jump in. Come say *Hi* and find me at: Instawww.instagram.com/sarah_chelle_Websitewww.sarahchelle.com

Have you been feeling so sluggish that you're struggling to wake in the morning and could easily nap in the day? Are you struggling to focus and feel like it takes mental effort just to think of a word? Have you noticed you're feeling more anxious, your moods dropped, your hair might be falling out more than usual or you're gaining weight? Then you might have a thyroid hormone issue. Your thyroid hormones are the master controllers of your metabolism, oomph and go. They fuel your body and help it heal & recharge. So if your thyroid isn't working well - you're going to feel like a total zombie. The problem is, thyroid hormone problems are massively overlooked. Because for your blood test to flag your thyroid - your thyroid has to be MASSIVELY struggling. Like falling asleep while driving struggling. The reference ranges for your thyroid hormones detect diagnosed hypothyroidism that need thyroid hormone replacement (aka. a thyroid that is under-functioning and not making your thyroid hormones). Your thyroid doesn't go from super happy & well to not functioning at all - there is a middle ground where it's beginning to struggle, not producing enough thyroid hormones - and YOU will feel the effects. This stage, where your thyroid isn't super happy, is detectable in your blood test results if you know the reference range to look for. And that is what we dive into on todays poddy episode - part 4 - all about your thyroid hormones and how to detect if they're not working well and the blood test results we want you to have to know they ARE functioning well. And let me tell you, 85% of my clients thyroids are not happy campers and need some TLC. So let's figure out if you're the same. Let's jump in.
