      <image:title>Blog - Are Your Hormones in Check? - Now that I’m finalizing my doula certification and fertility coach training…</image:title>
      <image:caption>I am realizing there is EVEN more to hormone balancing than I thought. I’ve already been familiar with what things in our environment are good for your hormones versus what is harmful, but something I never realized is that what some mamas need support with isn’t necessarily the same as what another mama might need. We all (most likely) have imbalances - but the extent of how much those imbalances can vary from person to person is vast. It’s helpful to start paying attention to how your body feels and then researching what imbalances that might be an indicator of.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Story with “Happy Juice”… - I couldn’t believe what I was reading… testimonial after testimonial of moms going from severely anxious/depressed to suddenly feeling light as a feather and happy as a clam. Now I’m not so naive to just read a few testimonials and pull the trigger. I literally dug into the website and the videos about the science behind how it worked. I learned that essentially we all have pretty awful cortisol built up inside our gut from years and years of stress (boy did I build up stress when I was working that job) and this cortisol has no chance to work its way down if we are continuously sleep deprived and/or in fight or flight mode as busy moms. These cortisol levels take over and cause tiredness, mood swings, irritability, head aches, inflammation, depression/anxiety and more. Like a version of us we don’t even recognize and try so hard to hide - it’s a lot to handle!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - My Story with “Happy Juice”… - At the time of writing this, I just reached my 25 week mark with this pregnancy.</image:title>
      <image:caption>You could say it’s a coincidence and I guess I’ll never really know for sure, but this has been my EASIEST pregnancy so far (well, not counting those first few weeks before I started drinking Happy Juice!) There are so many night and day differences from my previous pregnancies to this one including my usual debilitating stomach pain (not to be confused with nausea, this is like a “severely backed up” situation where I am brought to tears from the pain) which I have not experienced at all this time while on Happy Juice. I also had horrible round ligament pain with my last pregnancy, which I can only describe as the feeling of “my C Section scar ripping open” is what it felt like. Granted, it has now been longer since my last C Section than with my last pregnancy since my last baby was a homebirth (praise God) but still, the round ligament pain is barely there this time in comparison to my first three pregnancies.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - What is Happy Juice? - Did you know that 90% of our serotonin (aka happy hormone) is produced in our gut?! So it’s no surprise that “gut health” = “mental health”</image:title>
      <image:caption>You can also view an excellent (yet brief) video about the product from the doctor/scientist at Amare HERE!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - What is Happy Juice? - If you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the products, I always recommend to first-time customers to try Happy Juice first! I used to prefer the Grape pack as my number one fave but recently Amare reformulated the Grape and the Watermelon and now the Watermelon is SOOO good! I bundle it with the unflavored mentabiotics and the pomegranate/lime “Energy” add-on boost which has the 55mg of matcha caffeine but if caffeine isn’t your thing, you can just take the “Energy” off! PS the Mango flavor requires NO “Energy” add-on because the Mango already has caffeine in it (100mg of a slow-release caffeine) You can shop all these combos here!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - What is Happy Juice? - Amare is trademarked as thee “Mental Wellness Company”</image:title>
      <image:caption>One of the things I immediately loved about Amare is the name. It is Latin (which I’m familiar with being a practicing Traditional Catholic) and means “To Love”. They emphasize that you can’t properly love those that matter to you without first loving (aka taking care of) yourself. Or, worded more commonly as “You can’t pour from an empty cup” In this day and age where we all could use some extra mental support, this company sure is onto something and I can’t say enough good things about them, their products, their mission, and their business opportunity. Here is a brief video about Amare!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Anchor of Hope: Doula in Training! - Little Nolan has by far been my happiest and healthiest baby - you could say it’s a coincidence or you could say it’s the fact that he was born peacefully at home in a stress-free environment, and pumped with absolutely zero medications/antibiotics (unlike my poor older two who had to deal with all the junk I was pumped with to endure major surgery, and then all the recovery medication… their poor little newborn tummies!) Not to mention the trauma of suddenly being pulled right out of your home of 9 months instead of the natural progression of hormones, contractions, birthing process and outpouring of bonding hormones that are all supposed to take place… I look back and I finally see God’s whole entire plan with my story. In the thick of it, it was so hard to accept my two C Sections. I’ve been obsessed and in love with the miracle of childbirth since I was very little.</image:title>

      <image:caption>I’m not 100% sure yet what this transition will look like - I do know that The Crunchy Catholic isn’t going anywhere, but the Anchor of Hope (anchor after St. Philomena! hope because my goodness did my Catholic Faith give me the hope I needed to power through this endeavor!) is a new message that I could no longer put off.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Anchor of Hope: Doula in Training! - If you’re just dying to hear the Birth Story of Nolan, you can tune in to my podcast episode I recorded shortly after he was born. I somewhat touch on the background of the births of my other two, but truly now that it’s been over a year, my many hours spent contemplating my story has led me to so many more realizations that I hadn’t even thought about at the time. There are things that played a huge role in my healing (and therefore my homebirth success!) that I don’t necessarily elaborate on in the podcast episode. It is really on my heart to re-record either a video (think documentary style - I have so much to say!) or a more extensive podcast mini series about this experience…</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Anchor of Hope: Doula in Training! - Since we’re on the topic of informed decision making, and natural/holistic approaches, I just have to share what I believe to be a very effective prenatal replacement. Most prenatals are made up of so much synthetic junk and they end up making already-nauseous pregnant moms even more nauseous! I have always been a huge Earthley fan and when I started reading (countless!) reviews of mothers using the Nourish Her Naturally tincture as a prenatal, I jumped right on the bandwagon!</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Potassium</image:title>
      <image:caption>I have been taking this potassium supplement from Nature’s Sunshine for well over a decade. Most days I need about two per day but sometimes I’m SO depleted in my electrolytes (after a long hot weekend of not eating well, or after being sick or stressed etc) that I literally take about 2-3 capsules multiples times a day to get my levels back up! This is by far the best potassium supplement I have found. Another way to get your potassium is through coconut water. I will share more about Nature’s Sunshine at the end of this article.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Sea Salt</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you’ve never taken salt, this might sound a little weird at first. It’s different than just regular table salt - actual pink Himalayan salt or Celtic sea salt is SO good for you. I love this one off Amazon. It’s the ultimate electrolyte and pairs well with potassium for a DAILY electrolyte MUST. I usually take about a half teaspoon and mix it in with a little bit of warm water and just chug it like a quick vitamin shot. The next time you have a headache, you might just need some potassium and salt!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Vitamin D</image:title>
      <image:caption>While most people know that Vitamin D is extremely important and that we get it from the sun, a lot of people don’t know just how severely lacking most people are in their vitamin D levels. I live in the Pacific Northwest where the summers are hot and beautiful but the winters are long and cold. I take this year round because that’s how much Vitamin D I need. Pretty much everyone needs to supplement Vitamin D - when in doubt, it certainly can’t hurt! I recommend this one off Amazon.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Vitamin C</image:title>
      <image:caption>Vitamin C is kind of a given, but at the same time that often means people forget to take it! This should be taken daily, and should definitely be taken around the clock when you’re getting sick. I like the one (pictured) from Nature’s Sunshine and will include Nature’s Sunshine at the end of this article, or there’s also this one off Amazon.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Vitamin B12</image:title>
      <image:caption>I never realized how necessary Vitamin B12 is for energy levels until I started taking this. This was especially crucial to take during my pregnancies, but really it’s important to take all the time. Vitamin B-12 is one of those things that our body doesn’t absorb very well unless you take it in the right form. This particular dissolvable tablet from Amazon seems to work really great. It dissolves under your tongue for direct absorption into your blood stream. Highly recommend!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Super Supplemental</image:title>
      <image:caption>This stuff is packed with nutrients! I feel great when I’m taking this and I actually took it as a “prenatal” during my pregnancies because it contains folate. A lot of prenatals containing synthetic ingredients really upset my stomach, so I was glad to discover this as a (much healthier) alternative. But really, it’s great to take all the time, not just when I’m pregnant! Again, this will be included as part of my Nature’s Sunshine info at the end.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Probiotics</image:title>
      <image:caption>I cannot emphasize enough, the importance of gut health. Our gut health impacts everything (our immune system, our hormones, long-term health) I’ve had off and on (painful!) digestive issues for years now and I didn’t fully get it under control until I saw a wellness doctor who recommended this probiotic as well as a digestive enzyme (which I’ll talk about next!) Honestly, whenever I’ve been breastfeeding one of my babies, I literally notice that they are more gassy and upset on the days that I miss my probiotic. My stomach suffers for it and so does theirs! This is not a product I ever want to run out of.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Vitamins and Supplements to Increase Your Energy Levels - Digestive Enzymes</image:title>
      <image:caption>These are also extremely crucial to take for gut health. I can tell when my digestion is in need of several doses per day, or if I just need the “maintenance” dose of about 2 per day. This is great to take when you know you’ve eaten something that typically upsets your stomach (for me, that’s garlic or onions!) The combination of this and the probiotic mentioned above, (and occasional kombucha) completely regulate my very painful digestive issues that I have dealt with for years.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Also known as “greens”, taking a superfood supplement is really important these days where our quality of produce is severely lacking. Unless you’re eating organic fruits and vegetables multiple times a day, you’re probably lacking in your nutrients. This is a great way to compensate for that. I love blending this mix into a smoothie, or even drinking it by itself.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - The Holy Rosary - for Beginners - Our Lady of Fatima</image:title>
      <image:caption>While St. Dominic did an excellent job of spreading devotion to the Holy Rosary, there have been many times in history since then where the Rosary was hardly prayed at all. Our Lady of Fatima is another title of Mary referring to her beautiful and famous apparitions in Fatima, Portugal - she appeared to three young children in the year 1917 on the 13th of each month from May to October. She again emphasized the importance of praying the Rosary every day. On her last apparition, on October 13th, a great miracle took place known as the miracle of the sun and thousands were there to witness. Many non-Catholics have written of this miracle and how it led to their conversion.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Another Saint that contributed largely in spreading devotion to the Rosary, was St. Louis Marie De Montfort. He died in the early 1700’s and wrote several books on the Blessed Virgin Mary and specifically on the Rosary. Many of his books are featured in my Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books. Additionally, many of his books are also available completely for free on Spotify.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - The Holy Rosary - for Beginners - My Rosary Bracelets</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you happen to explore my Rosary bracelets, you might notice the beads are a bit different from a traditional Rosary. In order to make the bracelets small enough to fit a wrist without falling off, most of my bracelets do not include the beginning “Our Father, 3 Hail Mary’s, Glory Be” - so when you’re praying with the bracelet, you would still pray that part but there are no beads to follow along. The beads start at the Hail Mary’s of the first decade.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - I actually have a really basic “Reading Schedule” as part of my Gratia Plena Prayer Journal, so I have put this concept into practice for quite a while now and I can’t emphasize enough just how effective it has been. I’ll even offer this one-page as a Freebie so you can see if it’s helpful for you (I’m positive it will be!) You can get that here:</image:title>

      <image:caption>This Morning Prayer Journal (that I created as a resource for myself and then loved so much I decided to share!) has truly been what has made the difference for me personally in actually sticking to a Spiritual Reading routine.

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - First and Foremost…</image:title>
      <image:caption>It goes without saying that the Bible is of course, the ultimate “Spiritual Reading” book… I’m not even going to list this in my “10” because it’s the foundation and it’s a given. As a Traditional Catholic, I will only read the Douay-Rheims version as it is the most original (and therefore accurate) translation. There are some very fancy and expensive versions you can find, but there’s also some more affordable options including this one off Amazon:</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - My Daily Bread</image:title>
      <image:caption>This might be one of my favorite go-to Spiritual Reading books. It’s the type you can open up to any chapter and it almost always seems to speak to whatever it is you need to hear that day. It’s an almost daily read for me and even when I don’t have the book handy, there’s this FREE PDF online which I have saved on my phone. Or, the physical book can be purchased on Amazon:</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - 2. My Meditation on the Gospel</image:title>
      <image:caption>This book is another very easy-to-read, every-day book that you can pickup whenever. It basically covers a few Scripture verses and then does a meditation on that. I love this during Holy Week when I want to really dive into the days leading up to, and including, Good Friday and all that took place.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - 4. My Imitation of Christ</image:title>
      <image:caption>This book was almost a daily read for me during my high school years. It’s also one you can just open up to whatever page, however, I always have to make sure my coffee has kicked in first! It’s a little bit of a deeper read than, for example, My Daily Bread. So many great takeaways from every chapter!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - 5. My Other Self</image:title>
      <image:caption>This book is a recent discovery, a gift from a friend, and I’m so grateful she thought of me! It really puts into perspective how we are meant to live our crosses daily, and always strive to become more and more Christ-like. It’s an easy read and I can usually open up to any chapter and get something great out of it!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - 6. Lives of the Saints</image:title>
      <image:caption>I think absolutely everyone needs to be reading the Lives of the Saints in some way, shape or form, on a regular basis. What they went through for Christ is so inspiring and really eye-opening compared to the daily struggles we complain about. You can either read individual stories of saints, or, this particular book has been really convenient for me as it’s just a daily reading for that saint of the day. This particular book includes the traditional dates and saints, as that is what I follow.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - 7. Saint Monica</image:title>
      <image:caption>This is an example of a very short book on a life of a saint, the wonderful Saint Monica, Model of Christian Mothers. I read this book and was so moved by her story and her persistence in prayer. There are tons of other stories of saints you can find as well.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - 8. Mother Love</image:title>
      <image:caption>This book is just beautiful and an absolute must for Catholic Mothers. It includes lots of different prayers and devotions specifically for wives and mothers. For some reason I am having a hard time finding where it’s currently available (Amazon shows it sold out or extremely price gauged) and other sites show it unavailable, hopefully that changes soon. I’m linking it anyway and hopefully that price changes.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This has been so helpful in my understanding of why a devotion to the Rosary is so important.

      <image:title>Blog - My Top 10 Recommended Spiritual Reading Books for Catholic Moms - 10. True Devotion to Mary</image:title>
      <image:caption>This one is a bit of a bigger book but truly was the start of my increase in, well, Devotion to Mary. It’s so beautiful and inspiring to read. It can also be listened to on Spotify, or purchased on Amazon.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Why I Quit Young Living - Do I think the author intended that? Not necessarily, but the enemy is SLY and SNEAKY (a wolf in sheep’s clothing) so even if that isn’t how the book was intended, I truly, firmly believe the devil had an influence on its title and its content... knowing that it would be getting into the hands of so many believers and for a good majority of them, they would find nothing wrong with it.</image:title>
