“If you are on a healing journey, no matter the season you are in, I really encourage you to look at your foods. What ways can you elevate the quality while keeping things simple? We often times get so overwhelmed by too much information in terms of this being healthy and this not being healthy etc. I just focus on what I can source like healing meats from US Wellness Meats and farm produce boxes. The rest I have my peace and rely on my gut feeling. If you are planning on a healing postpartum, I hope you follow me for more healing tips to bring nourishment to your recovering body.” – Megan Limon
