Do you feel like you’re always starting over when it comes to your gut health? Every January (or month, Monday, etc), you might decide this will be the year you finally fix your digestion. You start strong… and then a few weeks later, everything falls apart. In this episode, Dr. Heather explains why that happens and why it has nothing to do with willpower or discipline (you might be surprised what it is that actually holds you back!) This episode is a conversation about nervous system regulation, realistic expectations, and how to create gut healing that actually lasts. If you’re tired of starting over every January (or every Monday), this episode will change how you think about consistency and gut health. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why consistency is actually a nervous system skill Why gut healing isn’t linear (and why that’s normal) How to interpret symptoms as information Why trying to fix everything at once backfires How a slower, phased approach to your gut health leads to lasting relief Links & Resources Follow Dr. Heather on Instagram Learn more about gutTogether® programs Leave a review + enter our monthly giveaway Leave a 5-star rating and written review of the podcast, take a screenshot, and email it to: 📩 support@guttogetherprogram.com Each month, one reviewer is randomly selected to receive an HTMA test and consult Find the real root causes of your GI symptoms with our free, 2 minute Quiz!
