Sometimes finding gifts for someone who is following a healing diet, or who has an autoimmune disease can be a bit tricky. The general food options or events might not work out as planned. So what are our loved ones to do? Show them this list!

Cookbooks

30 Minute Meals for the Paleo AIP I have to include this one again.. obvs.. I helped and contributed 3 recipes to this awesome cookbook. All recipes are start to table in under 30 minutes or less and have easy to find ingredients.

AIP Sheet Pan Recipes When you’re short on time and energy a sheet pan meal is the way to go!

The Autoimmune Protocol Comfort Food Cookbook Any book that contains AIP mac and cheese… I’m in.

AIP Made Simple Sophie out did herself here. This cookbook is beautiful and makes AIP look easy peasy.

85 AIP Breakfasts $12.95 One of the first things people starting AIP often ask is, “but what do I have for breakfast??” Since eggs are out for now, getting creative is a must. This ebook does all that work for you!

AIP Instant Pot Cookbook $17.95 Grabbed an Instant Pot recently? or know someone who did? Grab an amazing cookbook to go with it to give or gift to yourself!

Kitchen Accessories

Stasher bags $7.99+ Disposable plastic bags are not going to get us out of the climate crisis. One of the small things we can do is start to be more conscious around our plastic use. Stasher bags are a great way to start!

Pyrex Sets $18+ Glass food storage is proving to be way safer than plastic. Glass doesn’t contain chemicals and won’t stain or change shape. What’s not to love?

Veggie Spiralizer $25+ This has been a game changer in my kitchen. The ability to make noodles from any veggie is uh-mazing! My fav? Sweet potato.

Cuisinart Stick Blender $29+ This blender is awesomely adaptable. Slowly cook some veggies in broth on the stove (or Instant Pot) then blend away for wonderful soups with this handy time saver!

Instant Pot $79+ It’s bound to go on sale again this year, so keep your eyes peeled! This one stop shop of a kitchen gadget does it all. It’s a Pressure Cooker, Slow Cooker, Rice Cooker, Steamer, Sauté, Yogurt Maker and Warmer all in one! 

Ninja Blender Duo System $183 +. This Ninja system can do it all. It comes with three Nutri Ninja Cups (18 oz., 24 oz. and 32 oz.), 8-Cup Food Processor Bowl and a 72 oz. Total Crushing Pitcher. When a Vitamix is out of your range, a Ninja will do just fine. I absolutely LOVE my Ninja! 

Lifestyle Accessories 

Essential Oils Oils are so amazing. They smell great and can help with numerous conditions. However not all are created equal unfortunately. One company I trust is Mountain Rose Herbs.

Muscle Roller Stick $9+ This has become a wonderful tool for me. I love my foam roller, but this has been great! When the foam roller is too big to maneuver well, this does the trick. Also, when I don’t feel like rolling around on the ground, this is a great alternative!

Magnesium Flakes $12+ Adding magnesium flakes to your bath makes it an ultimate healing experience. Magnesium helps to decrease aches and pains and can create a relaxing feeling as well.

Blue Light Blockers $10+ These glasses are a must for getting your sleep in order! Blocking out blue light several hours before bed time helps to encourage our melatonin production, therefore helping us sleep better! What could be better!

Sound Machine $19+ Sometimes you need peace and quiet. Sometimes there are crazy things going on around you that make that impossible. Enter the need for a sound machine. With various different sounds like ocean waves, thunderstorm and white noise, you’re bound to find one that suits your preference!

Koldtec Cooling Towels $39These have been so helpful on hot summer days! They stay cool for a long time and I don’t want to go to the beach without one!

Foooood

Four Sigmatic I’ve really fallen in love with shroom coffee. It helps me to get energized in the morning but not in a jittery way at all.

I’M ALISSA!

First, save this for later!

Second, what you gotta know about “managing stress” is:
it really matters how you care for yourself in the moment and afterwards

You see, most of us know when we’re experiencing moments of stress, 
but we don’t know how to attend to ourselves to mitigate the impacts.

It all comes down to awareness of:
- Your present moment 
- How that moment is impacting your body 

Once you’re aware of how the stress you’re experiencing is impacting you and your body, THEN you can start attending to yourself and changing how your body handles stress.

👆🏼👆🏼that’s also how we mitigate stress induced MS symptoms or relapses.

Awareness is always the first step babe.

Wanna know more?

Yes I had been moving consistently
Yes I had been eating my veggies

But, the big thing that has helped over the last few years is regulating my nervous system.

You wouldn’t necessarily think so right away but let me explain..

You see, working on your nervous system means improving the amount of stress your body can handle.

And when your body can handle more stress, you can do more things (like walk miles and miles)

Stress is one of the biggest triggers for MS symptoms and relapses, so working on your nervous system usually brings MS symptom relief.

ESPECIALLY when you’ve “done everything” and “nothing works”

I’m hosting a Masterclass on Feb 18th:
The MS Stress Solution

Inside you’ll learn my blueprint for nervous system regulation that I’ve used with my clients.

And unfortunately- it’s never going away, we can only learn how to manage it better for ourselves and our bodies.

Totally lost on how to do that? I got you!

I’m hosting a free masterclass all about how to manage stress in your daily lives- and in a way that doesn’t add a ton to your already packed to-do list.

This is hard!!

We feel like “we should be able to” still do the cleaning, chores, putting things away etc etc etc.. 

But in reality- our bodies need and crave rest and recovery first.

If we don’t give our bodies what they need voluntarily, they’ll find a way to make us.

Really struggle with this idea of listening to and caring for your body?
(I get it- it’s not a skill we’re taught)

I’m hosting a (free) masterclass on this and “managing stress” in January, comment CLASS and I’ll send you the link to sign up!!

I get it..

It seems like it would be good.

Because others around you are taken care of..
Because others around you feel good..
Because others around you are happy..

But what about you??

In reality, that’s just making it harder for you to help yourself heal and probs making your MS symptoms worse.

I’ve worked with so many people with MS and autoimmune disease… 1 thing (among many) that they all have in common is a habit of putting others before themselves, saying yes way too much and forgetting about what they want themselves.

Feel a little called out?
Then my course Embodied Resilience is for you.

This is a course all about managing + improving your stress tolerance- since stress is the number 1 trigger of symptom flares and relapses

And- it’s on sale for Black Friday!!

✨Moving your body✨

Notice I didn’t say exercise, although yes that also helps.

Stress hormones can get stuck in our bodies, our cells, our muscle tissue for various reasons.

Making it super easy for us to carry stress around with us- which shows up often as:

Pain
Tension
Trouble breathing
Difficulty with balance

It’s no coincidence that these are often prominent MS symptoms too. Sometimes it’s hard to tell where effects of MS end and effects of stress begin.

Being able to offload accumulated stress is key to being able to improve MS symptoms.

My course Embodied Resilience shows you exactly how to do this, and it’s gonna be on sale for Black Friday.

Comment ME below and I’ll send you the sale link when it’s ready!!

I’ve seen myself and tons of clients through behavior change to help improve their MS + autoimmune disease symptoms.

There are SO MANY things that can help us.

But the one I’ve seen move the needle the most?

Working on your mindset and stress management tools.

We can change our diet
Change how we move 
Change the products we’re using
Change the supplements we take..

But if we’re still in the high stress state that most of us are in.. all those will only go so far.

Stress is my biggest symptom trigger, and 99% of my clients feel the same.

My biggest course sale is coming Black Friday, included is my course Embodied Resilience, all about learning how to actually manage stress- so you’re not constantly battling MS flares too.

My email list is gonna get first dibs..
