Pursuing Health Through Nourishing Foods and Metabolic Support | Fallon Lee & Kori MeloyThe pro-metabolic approach to wellness has been gaining popularity lately, but it is rooted in ancient ways of eating and supporting the body. The more I have learned about it, the more I have realized that I have actually been following many of the pro-metabolic principles for a long time. This way of life goes hand in hand with the from-scratch homestead kitchen. Though I have already been implementing many metabolically supportive practices in my life, I still learned so much from this conversation. I walked away with new ideas to try and areas of my health to reexamine. Wheth...2022-11-031h 32The Freely Rooted Podcast29.

When her daughter was an infant and became increasingly more difficult to place into a crib for daytime or nighttime sleep, Taylor found herself between 1 or 2 options: sleep training (since that seems to be the only answer from the internet, friends, family, or professionals), or accidentally falling asleep herself while trying to nurse her daughter back to sleep.
