"MAKE YOURSELF A PRIORITY. AT THE END OF THE DAY YOU ARE YOUR LONGEST COMMITMENT."

At 35 weeks pregnant, I’ll admit that I have cau

At 35 weeks pregnant, I’ll admit that I have caught myself falling into this toxic phrase trap. Don’t get me wrong, I love being pregnant, and I’ll miss this belly when it’s gone, BUT I think most women can admit that there are some undesirables that come along with it.

While my focus has been more on labour, upcoming challenges, navigating parenthood, breastfeeding, and ultimately just figuring out this whole new life ahead, I think it’s safe to say that most women go through some sort of body image dysmorphia at some point in their lives, whether or not it is pregnancy related.

So here’s my goal:

Remind women that we will look different through different phases of life, and this is normal, natural, and OKAY.

Remind women that these toxic phrases are only holding you back.

Remind women to stop dieting, fasting, forcing cardio, and being so extreme, and start NOURISHING, BALANCING blood sugar, sleeping, and doing LESS.

Remind women that It's ok to mourn no longer being the person we once were AND be content with where we are at in the now.

If you are for whatever reason feeling unhappy with your body in the present moment, stop PUNISHING and start LISTENING. Remember that you are not a time machine, and to focus on moving forwards rather than backwards.

Focus on BUILDING rather than LOSING.

Signs of growth, stretching, and storing for safety are signs that we are ALIVE.

Soaking up every moment over these next few months 💜 also sitting every chance I get, peeing every 4 minutes, and eating anything and everything 🙃

“What can I take for [insert symptom here]?”

“What can I take for [insert symptom here]?”

This might just be the most commonly asked question for ANY healthcare practitioner out there, and while I would love to be able to give every single person a quick fix solution to their ailments, that unfortunately is not how it works.

In a world where injections and medications seem to trump healthy habits and lifestyle choices, I don’t blame anyone for looking for that quick fix. We’re being fed misguided information on the daily. I get it.

I like to answer this question with two more questions:

1. When did your symptoms start?
2. What kind of stress were you experiencing when these symptoms started?

A lot of the time it all boils down to stress. And what you may not realize is that stress isn’t always about trauma, or death, or financial struggles, or relationship problems... stress can come in the form of good things too- pregnancy, moving, starting your new dream job, a new relationship...

Once we are able to pinpoint this stress timeline, we can start to manage the damage that stress may have caused. And THIS is when we get to start making a few simple and effective changes, and yes, many times these changes turn into exactly what you wanted in the first place- a “quick fix” (situational of course). For some, it may take months to start feeling better. But I’ve seen serious progress in a matter of weeks- and this is totally dependent on your situation.

So here’s the thing, you can go ahead and pop your Tylenol for those pesky headaches....

Antacids for your heartburn...

Laxatives for your constipation....

Birth control for your acne and/or painful, heavy period...

or you can spend some time finding the root cause of these ailments, tackle the real issue, and say buhbye to those struggles for good.

🔥EXCITING NEWS! Your Get Healthy with Chelsea

🔥EXCITING NEWS! Your Get Healthy with Chelsea 1:1 program now includes EVEN MORE functional testing to find out what’s REALLY going on! (Swipe for graphic)

💩 GI Mapping- an at-home stool test to help provide a more complete and accurate picture of digestive health for anyone experiencing digestive issues like constipation, diarrhea, bloating, gas, or reflux. Chronic health problems like cardiovascular disease, thyroid issues, hormone imbalances, and autoimmune conditions can all be caused by gut infections and/or leaky gut.

💇‍♀️ Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis- minerals have many functions in the body. They are essential for allowing our bodies to function properly and can affect our overall health. Too much or too little, however, can have a huge impact on our overall health. HTMA analyzes a hair sample to indicate the various mineral levels for that individual. After the results are back, I am able to help create a specific wellness plan for you to help you feel your best.

DUTCH Test- hormones and hormone imbalance are always hot topics, and with good reason. Your body is constantly being affected by these mini messengers, and if they’re out of whack, you’re probably not feeling on top of your game. Fatigue, insomnia, depression, anxiety, low libido, and irregular menstrual cycles are just a few of the common symptoms of hormone imbalance. The simplest way to understand what’s going on with your hormones is by testing them.

🚫 Food Sensitivity Testing- with an IgG food allergy, the immune system reacts to usually harmless food allergens and produces food-specific IgG antibodies. These antibodies can then cause inflammatory reactions which may lead to various chronic complaints, including migraines, IBS, Crohn’s Disease, excess weight, and skin problems.
