Hey ,

Let me guess —

You sleep “enough” but wake up tired. You try eating better, yet your energy crashes every afternoon. You’re dragging your body, your mood, and your focus through the day.

You’re not lazy. You’re not broken.

You’re likely stuck in gut-stress fatigue.

Yes, your gut has a stress switch. And for many of us, it’s stuck in the ON position.

Here’s what happens when stress hijacks your gut:

1. Your digestion slows → bloating, constipation, or loose stools.

2. Nutrients don’t absorb → fatigue, brain fog, or even hair fall.

3. Gut lining weakens → toxins leak into your bloodstream (aka “leaky gut”).

4. Inflammation spikes → joint pain, skin issues, and more exhaustion.

And here’s the kicker: chronic stress can shrink your gut microbiome, making it harder to bounce back.

What can you do today to reset this?

• Start your day without your phone. Give your nervous system a calm start.

• Sip warm water with cumin or fennel seeds. A simple gut-stress soother.

• Eat while sitting down. No multitasking. Just you, your food, and deep breaths.

• Lie down on your left side for 10 minutes post meals. It supports digestion like magic.

• Write down 3 things you’re grateful for every night. Yes, your gut listens.

Today’s work-on-it prompt:

What’s one stress habit you can pause today?

Maybe saying yes to everything? Skipping meals? Overthinking your symptoms?

You’re not meant to feel this drained every day, ,

You can calm the storm inside.

And I promise—it starts in your gut, not in your coffee cup.
