Gut Cleanse

I’ve had bad digestion for a long time. Gastrointestinal issues run in my family and having an eating disorder certainly didn’t help any either. Back in 2013, I contracted a stomach bacteria/parasite that significantly affected my day-to-day with intense stomach pain, indigestion after every meal, bloating and discomfort, and low energy. It took months of testing, scopes, and elimination diets (which triggered my eating disorder) until we discovered what it was.

Even after the medication to get rid of it, my digestive issues continue and started affecting my life in what seemed like a never-ending, long-term way. From never being comfortable in “normal” pants (elastic waistbands one-size-too-big only; I wouldn’t dare even consider anything with a button and fly), to always being concerned that what I was going to eat would cause an upset stomach and 2nd trimester-mimicking bloating, to not feeling good in my own skin – and definitely not sexy.

In 2018, things started getting worse. My digestion was affecting me after every meal, my face was breaking out in cystic acne, I was cranky and lethargic, and the list goes on.

I knew I needed to do something about it, and I started seeing a naturopath on a weekly basis for around 6 months. She helped me get my digestion and hormones in check through herbal tinctures, acupuncture, and the reminder that I had way too much stress in my life. Within a few months of our weekly visits, things started looking up for me. The big thing we focused on was cleansing my liver as it wasn’t functioning properly. I lived a very “healthy” life, yet I was full of toxins from everyday consumption; skin and hair products, cleaning products, environmental toxins, food (pesticides, hormones, etc.), and stress.

After learning so much from both her, and my mother (a licensed holistic health & nutrition practitioner, and the creator of Rain Natural Skincare), I gutted our home of toxins, changed to all-natural products, and focused on removing stress from my life the best I could. I was feeling SO much better, but I knew that avoidance wasn’t 100% certain in today’s society; it’s inevitable that I’m going to consume some toxins. I wanted to find something readily available and all-natural to maintain my results with cleansing my gut.

I decided to try Activate after seeing it offered by the same company that makes the Liquid Biocell collagen I’m obsessed with, and because it’s an EASY all-natural, herbal cleanse that doesn’t require me to diet.


Activate, a natural 3-day cleanse

It’s formulated with organically grown aloe vera to soothe irritation in the gastrointestinal tract, psyllium to promote regularity and ginger to alleviate nausea, indigestion, bloating and discomfort.

These herbal ingredients work together to promote your digestive energy, so you feel renewed and invigorated.

Used along with your usual meals (yes, there’s no need to change your diet!), Activate is a monthly 3-day cleanse made with natural ingredients to gently relieve digestive upset, irregularity, and inflammation.


Why I Love It:

A sluggish digestive system can’t be ignored. It can really slow you down and leave you feeling bloated and blah. I didn’t want to keep feeling this way, and with using Activate monthly, now I don’t.

When COVID shut down all the horse shows this year When COVID shut down all the horse shows this year, I actually felt myself breathe a sigh of relief. I kept playing this game as though I was going to do the show circuit; picking out shows I was never going to go to, working hard on a goal I didn’t even have, and pretending like I was disappointed when they all got canceled because “damn, this was going to be our year!”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Instead, COVID gave me the opportunity to pretend like I was taking the summer off and just enjoying the warm weather with my horse; trail riding, bareback walks around the property, fun groundwork that worked our minds...
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It wasn’t until things started opening up again that I realized that it’s all I’ve ever wanted to do in the first place.

I’ve never really felt like I’ve fit in within I’ve never really felt like I’ve fit in within the horse industry… I’ve never felt good enough, or brave enough, or refined enough, or pulled together enough, and honestly, I’ve never really wanted to try hard enough to achieve any of those things. But they still ate away at me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m not a competitive person and the idea of spending so much money to just get a ribbon has never appealed to me… that, and the paralyzing idea of having everyone’s eyes on me, criticizing my every move and my horse’s every step.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I just really, really love horses.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love the way they make me feel; connected, quiet, peaceful. I love the smell and atmosphere of the barn. I love herd dynamics and wearing dirty clothes in public like “so what? I’m a horse girl!”
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’ve always felt like I needed to “be” something; a jumper rider, or a hunter rider, or a dressage rider, or a gymkhana rider. I thought I always had to have a goal and a vision; a distinct discipline and a plan… I’ve never given myself the permission to just be a rider; a horse lover.
