High blood pressure can be due to many different t High blood pressure can be due to many different things. I have always prided myself in coming from generations of people who have high blood pressure (HBP), yet not having it myself. We eat cleaner than most of society. I incorporate herbs in most of my diet. And we live very cleanly when it comes to using chemicals in products like soaps and farm products.

So imagine my surprise when the midwife realized I was dealing with HBP during the last few weeks of my pregnancy with our fourth child.

Looking back on my pregnancy with our third child, I actually believe I was beginning to struggle then with this issue, but it didn’t pop up until days after I delivered.

In this article, I’m using myself as a client “case”, and will show you how I was able to support my body with herbs, hydration, and nutrition during this time. I’ll also share how important it is to support your body before, during, and after pregnancy so that you may help prevent HBP, pre-eclampsia, and postpartum pre-eclampsia.

🍃 Comment PREGNANCY and I’ll send the article directly to your DM.

You can do crazy and amazing things while still ho You can do crazy and amazing things while still holding and raising your babies. It won’t be easy, but it will be worth it. 

I could self evaluate everything I did wrong this weekend. All the things I missed. The conversations I wish I could’ve had. The moments I could’ve made a better decision. And even the critical mindset around how I look after having a baby.

But the reality is that it doesn’t matter. 

What matters is this—if the babies were take care of, and the people were take care of, ministry still happened, and Yahweh was still glorified. 

Dear mama—you can do this. Your family will be stronger because of it. And so will your faith. Often times the most miraculous things happen when your faith is stretched and your time is consumed with heavenly things.

Thanks for making this reel @itsmonicastrong 😘
Freedom is an interesting word in America. We are Freedom is an interesting word in America. We are a “free” nation and yet if you don’t pay your property taxes on a property you fully own, your property will be taken from you. We literally already live in the “you will own nothing and be happy” era. 

We are “free” but we can’t buy the food we want to buy. If our neighbor sells us raw milk or canned meat, it’s illegal. 

We are “free” but our right to bear arms and free speech becomes increasingly more difficult. We are taxed on everything we buy multiple times. And we are traced through technology and have been for decades. 

I’m not so sure that Americans understand the state of the food and health crisis that we’re currently in. This bothers me. It makes me want to yell from the rooftops, “we must get back to true independence.”

Every year the FDA raids farms and homesteads because they don’t “comply”. Or, they do comply and they just don’t like what they’re doing. What are they doing? Growing food. And specifically growing food and sharing it.

Have you ever wondered why you can’t choose the food you eat? You can choose foods full of chemicals at the grocery store or a fast food restaurant, but you can’t choose to have your neighbor grow food for you to eat. 

It’s the same with healthcare. You can’t choose the healthcare you want. The war on herbalism and natural healthcare is ridiculous. Everything is regulated by the F-DUH, as my friend Joel likes to call it. 

So I can’t buy the food I want (assuming I don’t grow it myself). I can’t opt for the natural healthcare I want (assuming I don’t do it myself).

Hello?! Is this thing on?! 

This is death by 1,000 cuts.

We must become as passionate about our food and health rights are we are our other American rights. Because good food and health are rights given to us by our Creator. We were created to be good stewards of the earth, to live a healthy life. But instead we’ve handed that over to the government while we live the most unsustainable lives in the history of ever. 

It’s time to wake up, friends, before it’s too late. This is important. It actually is a national security crisis. And not in the manipulative executive order kind of way.
Sometimes you’ll hear people say “I have good frie Sometimes you’ll hear people say “I have good friends”. But recently I have found myself saying “I have steadfast friends”. 

The definition of someone who is steadfast means to be resolutely firm, loyal, and unwavering in your beliefs, actions, or loyalty. A steadfast person is reliable, stays focused on their purpose, and refuses to give up or change their mind, even when faced with difficult circumstances.

To be a steadfast friend means you have a mission and purpose, and you don’t waver from it. That purpose is the kingdom of Yahweh. 

For the last 5 to 10 years I have had a fluid group of friends. Some come and some go. But there is a core group that has remained through it all. The enemy has tried to divide and conquer. And sometimes we still have to realize this. But yet, here we are…steadfast. 

Sometimes we pick at each other, get mad at each other, assume or think wrongly. Sometimes we don’t talk for a week. Sometimes we talk everyday. But here’s the truth, and I think I can say it with full confidence….

We love one another enough to praise each other when it is due, and to correct each other when it is due. To push each other to the next level, and to tell each other when to sit down and be silent. Without getting offended and storming off to find a new friend group. 

It is incredibly rare, I am discovering, to see this in action. There is something beautiful about friends that see you at your worst and choose to be steadfast. No worldly judgement. When I’m lacking, they have abundance. When they are lacking, I have abundance. When they are crying, I can be strong. When I am crying, they can be strong (and some will cry with me 😆). 

1 Cor 15:58 says “Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.”

How committed are you to other people? Because the kingdom is about kinship, not friend hopping. It’s about kindred spirits, not emotional highs and lows to please the flesh. 

Don’t just find good friends—find steadfast friends. And more importantly…be a steadfast friend.
