Have you noticed that we are all in a deep energy crisis? As humans, we are experiencing more brain fog, brain fatigue, which leads to chronic fatigue, a debilitating condition. That's why we are always looking for an energy fix, just to get us through our day! Don't believe this, then look at the sales of coffee and energy drinks everyday! It's incredible! So many of us are going about our day running on fumes, and this is why we are reaching out for caffeine to give us that quick energy boost, but unfortunately we are also receiving the energy crash that follows. Then begins a vicious cycle...that is just so exhausting! Caffeine is a stimulant, that only provides temporary energy. But, for long-term, sustainable energy - the type of energy required for exceptional mental performance, feel good moods, vivid memory, motivation, focus, creativity, and every other positive cognitive measure - you'll need an energy strategy that promotes natural energy production in our body and in our brain.

Of course, the best remedies for poor brain energy are better sleep and nutrition. You need quality sleep and good nutrition to wake up in the morning feeling more rested and energetic. However, to ensure that your brain functions at it's fullest capacity at all times, for enhanced levels of brain power, better life energy and performance, that every woman wants and needs, it's smart to implement a safe, well rounded, all-natural stack of nootropics for energy, into your daily energy strategy.

Today Jess and Cody continue their conversation with Ashleigh DiLello on the power of positivity. The power of positivity doesn't just sound good, it's actually been studied by neuroscientists, through brain spect imaging. Every thought releases some type of chemical. When positive thoughts are generated, when you're feeling happy, or optimistic, cortisol decreases and the brain produces more serotonin, creating a feeling of well-being. The brain has heightened prefrontal activity and positivity results in enhanced mental functions. Positive emotions actually widen our span of attention and they change our perception and focus on more of the "we" instead of the "me". On the other hand, negative emotions are proven to slow down brain function, make it difficult to process thoughts, decreases activity in the cerebellum, and impacts the left temporal lobe (fear factor), affecting mood, memory and impulse control.

Today the discussion revolves around the concept of neuroplasticity, which is the brain's ability to adapt and change. Our brain loves consistency, and it loves to function on autopilot, or in other words, out of habit. When we have consistent, repeated thoughts, neuropathways are created in the brain. These pathways become deeper and more ingrained and become more habitual each time our thoughts follow this path. If we have negative thoughts consistently, we build a habit of automatic negative thoughts, aka "ants". By the way we are all wired to have negative thoughts, for survival purposes, we use negative thoughts to imagine potential threats and problems, and negative thoughts can help us to solve threats and problems before we get into trouble. But, these imagined threats can also work against us and turn our minds into "random negative thought generators" which isn't protecting us anymore, and is actually hurting us. Ashleigh shares with us that even though we have very ingrained neuropathways established, our brains are very plastic and are able to be "rewired". She shares with us, in this episode, tips on how to interrupt "ants" and how to create new pathways with positive thoughts and actions.

On It's Hertime, Cody and Jess love to talk all things health and hormones, but they also love introducing you to women that are using their power to make the world a better place. Today Jess and Cody are joined by special guest Ashleigh DiLello. These ladies are talking about the power of our minds and the difference it makes to choose powerful thoughts that focus on positivity.

Ashleigh DiLello has accomplished many things in her life, she is a Wellness Expert, Mother, Wife, and you may know her as a Professional Dancer from Broadway and TV shows like So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing With The Stars. But, what many don't know about her is that at the age of 13, she was suddenly faced with a life-threatening illness that caused her to give up all of her dreams, and instead have to fight everyday for her life for four years. She shares with us how she survived, how she refused to accept her diagnosis, and how she stopped listening to other's thoughts, and instead used the power of her own thoughts and feelings to regain her health and strength. She not only beat the odds and defied death, but she went on to exceed everyone's expectations of what her potential could be. This episode is filled with inspiration and is only one out of two episodes Cody and Jess recorded with her. Listen in today as Ashleigh shares her story, and think about how the power of positivity can help you in your life, and then tune in tomorrow for the rest of the story and actionable tips ashleigh share on how to disrupt your negative thought loops.

How did she do it? It's all about healing from the inside out.

The term "hormone imbalance" is thrown around a lot these days. But what does it actually mean? How do we even know which hormones are imbalanced, much less what symptoms we should be looking for to figure out if our hormones are out of whack? The thing is, from the time we are are born, our hormones are dictating a plethora of our bodily functions, like our appetite, sleep patterns, how we respond to stress, our libido, whether we're happy or anxious, and everything in between.

On today's episode, Jess and Cody help piece together an understanding of what the heck is going on in our bodies. Cody teaches about our "alpha hormones" that usually become imbalanced first and that then have a downstream effect on our thyroid, ovarian, and sleep hormones. As in, they disrupt how thyroid hormones, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, and melatonin work in the body. Jess and Cody share some of the first simple signs of a hormonal imbalance to look out for. If you're wondering, what's a hormonally imbalanced girl to do? Don't worry, Jess and Cody break it down and share the two most important steps to take first.

Today Jess and Cody sit down with the cutest Mother and Daughter duo, Mindy and Kylie. They wrote in to share about how much Hertime has changed "their time"of the month. Mostly, it's gone from moody and miserable at their house, to no big deal at all! How? Well, Jess and Cody invited them into the studio to tell us all about their experience with using Hertime, and how it has helped.

We think many of you will relate. Do you have a moody teenage daughter? Do you sometimes feel like a moody teenager yourself? Well then, this is an episode you'll definitely want to tune into. Having mood swings is a common symptom for women, no matter what age or stage of our menstrual life we may be in. As you Mom's know, it's hard getting through our teenage years, especially if we're dealing with major PMS symptoms. So, how amazing is it to have a solution that can help not just us, but can also help our teenage girls feel in control of their moods, to not feel debilitated every month, and to feel able to do all the things a girl wants to do! Hertime helps to nourish our bodies with key nutrients known to support our endocrine system, leading to natural hormonal balance, and elimination of monthly menstrual struggles for every one of us, no matter what age or stage we may be in.

When it comes to being truly healthy, as you know, it's important to take a whole-person approach. This is the approach Cody uses in her practice to help bring health and hormonal healing to her clients. It's important to go further than just diet alone, so today Jess and Cody are doing another episode focusing on two more, out of eight, main pillars of holistic health. Today they are sharing the pillars Stress Less and Love More. 

Stress is a wellness threat that wears many hats. It sabotages our healthy eating habits by contributing to inflammation, increasing appetite, and causing sugar cravings, and saps energy we could be using to build muscle at the gym. Plus, ever met a super-stressed person who was maintaining strong-relationships? Stress is a normal part of modern life, but managing it allows us to live this modern life while maintaining our physical, mental, and emotional health. In other words, we will be happier, healthier people.

We know that a healthy sex-life and romantic relationships help us feel happy and fulfilled, but that's not all that our pillar of health that we call Love More is about. Romance and sex are definitely part of it, but there are so many other ways to express love, that still help to reduce stress and boost our feel-good hormones. Expressing and spreading love, in many ways, among friends, family, acquaintances and community, can contribute to a healthier and happier existence. Jess and Cody are encouraging our community to focus on living a more heart-centered life with even more intention. Let's see how doing so will not only improve our own health, by balancing our hormones, but how it also can literally change the world.

Sugar and refined carbs are best known for their effects on weight gain, but these foods are frequently at the root of our worst PMS and menopause symptoms, too, especially when it comes to fatigue, cravings, and mood swings. Today Jess and Cody talk about the tremendous difference it can make when we cut down our sugar intake. If we can stop eating sugar, we can feel more energy, have little to no craving or cramps, have less hot flashes, and so much more! Sugar not only causes major spikes and dips in mood and energy, it can also disrupt one of the most powerful hormones in the body: insulin. And, insulin is closely connected to all of the other hormones in our body, including estrogen and testosterone. So, even if you're not worried about your waistline, cutting back on or eliminating sugar will help rebalance hormones, and dramatically ease our most dreaded cycle symptoms.

Listen in to learn four effective strategies Cody and Jess use to balance their hormones and curb their sugar habits.

When it comes to being truly healthy, as you know, it's important to take a whole-person approach. This is the approach that Cody uses in her practice to help bring health and hormonal healing to her clients. It's important to go further than just diet and exercise alone, these are important areas to begin, but they are only two out of eight healthy habits she focuses on that lead to true holistic health. On today's episode Jess and Cody will introduce you to the first two powerful pillars of health (out of eight), that you can begin to implement right away to start feeling almost instant health benefits, and that will set you up for easy and enjoyable cycles, and optimal health. They discuss the concepts around "Eating Empowered" rather than "Will-powered", and how this is a healthier mindset that will lead to long-term health and wellness success. After all, food is the most powerful form of medicine, or the slowest form of poison, so having healthy eating habits is a must! Also, they discuss how there is one healthy habit, "Drinking Up" that could possibly be the simplest form of medicine you've been missing, or that you may not be paying enough attention to. Everything we put into our bodies gives our body's hormonal messages that can either lead to hormonal havoc or health. If you are needing a hormonal reset, these two healthy-habits are what you should focus on first!
