Managing Endometriosis at Christmas

Christmas. I’m not sure there’s any other time of year that can bring up so many complex and rich emotions and experiences. Joy, love, connection mixes with family disputes, awkwardness, and social pressure! Adding endometriosis into the mix only tends to further complicate a time that should be special.
Christmas is also a time of indulgence. Inflammatory foods tend to be the main thing on the menu, and this often results in one of our worst periods come January. So what does that mean for you? Eat and worry about the impact, or not eat those delicious foods but have a more manageable period? I don’t think you have to do either - in fact, for the past five years I’ve been creating ways to feel better and still enjoy those Christmas delights.
So in this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I plan to manage endometriosis at Christmas this year AND I’m sharing a free endometriosis-friendly Christmas mini-cookbook as my Xmas gift to you guys. You can download it here.
Here’s what I talk about in this episode:
Prioritising rest, and why it’s so important in order to help you move into 2020 with energy and less pain.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy.

Exercise for endometriosis.

Supporting detoxification pathways.

Adding IN anti-inflammatory foods - including those Christmas favourites of brussel ssprouts, cabbage, nuts and warming spices.

Supplements to help reduce inflammation and support the body at Christmas.

Balancing blood sugar for stable hormones.

Easy anti-inflammatory swaps for inflammatory foods and dishes.
 

I really hope this episode helps you feel a bit better this Christmas!
