5 Simple Shifts that Nourish your Thyroid from the Inside Out


If you've been feeling exhausted, foggy, moody, or stuck in a body that just won’t budge — it’s time to tune inward and turn up the volume on intuitive nourishment.


Many of my clients, don’t realize that the root of their symptoms may be tied to one powerful, yet often-overlooked gland: the thyroid.



The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland about two inches long located in the front of the throat.

🌿 Your Thyroid: Small But Mighty


Your thyroid plays a curtail role in your well-being — from your metabolism to your mood to how your hormones function.


In addition to managing your metabolism, thyroid helps regulate:


  • Blood pressure

  • Body temperature

  • Breathing

  • Cholesterol levels

  • Detoxification

  • Heart rate

  • Immune function

  • Muscle strength

  • Libido

  • Sleep


When you're under stress, and who isn't, it impacts your thyroid and more — your weight, your energy, your mood, and your ability to feel like you again.


⚠️ Could Your Thyroid Be Out of Balance?


Many women are silently struggling with thyroid imbalances like Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease — often without a clear diagnosis.


Here are some common symptoms to look out for:


Hashimoto’s (Hypothyroidism, Underactive Thyroid):

  • Fatigue

  • Brain fog

  • Weight gain

  • Dry skin

  • Hair loss

  • Mood swings


Graves’ (Hyperthyroidism, Overactive Thyroid):

  • Anxiety

  • Heart palpitations

  • Insomnia

  • Tremors

  • Brain fog

  • Weight loss


Do any of these feels familiar?


You're not alone.


And, good news is, there's a nourishing, all-natural path forward to a healthier more alive YOU.


The Nourished Alive Approach:

Intuitive Nourishment + Movement


My approach when working with clients, is to help reset the thyroid and rebalance hormones using an intuitive approach, including nourishment and movement designed for your body, your energy, your lifestyle.


Intuitive Nourishment - Real food that supports your body’s unique needs, while resetting the gut health and balancing hormones naturally.


Intuitive Movement - Gentle, soft, flow that honors your energy levels. It's about doing less, not more.


5 Ways to Support Your Thyroid Naturally

With Intuitive Nourishment & Movement


  1. Tune In to Intuitive Movement


Your thyroid doesn’t thrive under high-stress, high-intensity workouts.

Your thyroid does thrive with gentle, soft, flow movement that nourishes rather than depletes.


Try these next time your body signals - hey, I'm craving movement:

  • Walking in nature

  • Gentle yoga or intuitive stretching - pause, breathe into the stretch, that's plenty! Less is more.

  • Resting during your luteal/premenstrual phase vs hitting it at the gym

  • Movement based on how your body feels each day. Honor the seasons of you, we're not the same every day, honor your intuitive movement needs and observe your thyroid returning to balance without doing more, but with less.


2. Prioritize Deep, Restful Sleep


Sure, you may think, I'll sleep when I'm dead.


But remember you're not a robot and your thyroid is not an object. Your thyroid and adrenal glands are part of your entire being, they too need sleep to repair, restore, and function properly.


Try this tonight or when you feel called to infuse your night routine with some nourishment:

  • Create a wind-down ritual to support 7–9 hours of restorative sleep each night.

  • Dim the lights, and focus your eyes on something that's not moving, while you breathe. This activates your rest and digest (parasympathetic nervous system) letting your body know it's time to unwind and rest

  • Just like your phone, when dead you plug it in. The same applies to your body. When you feel tired, rest and recharge.


3. Nourish with Real, Nutrient Dense, Anti-Inflammatory Foods


Nutrient-dense, whole foods are essential for thyroid health — and your body knows what it needs. Symptoms are your body's way of communicating with you, pay attention, don't ignore.


Eat to nourish, look for foods that support your thyroid, like these:


  • Liver detox (beets, leafy greens, cruciferous veggies - broccoli, cauliflower, etc.)

  • Gut health (broth, and fermented foods)

  • Hormone balance (healthy fats, avocado, nuts and seeds)


4. Reduce Toxin Exposure

Toxins interfere with thyroid function and hormone signaling.


Simple swaps make a big difference:

  • Use my DIY dish soap recipe

  • Avoid plastics, scented candles, and conventional cleaning products

  • Heat up food on the stove vs microwave, swap plastic for glass containers


5. Nourish Your Nervous System Daily

A nourished and calm nervous system helps your thyroid regulate hormone production more efficiently, brining it back to balance and calm.


Try these daily nourishment practices to calm your nervous system via the vagus nerve (connecting the gut to your thyroid) include:

  • Deep belly breathing

  • Singing or humming

  • Gargling

  • Laughing and connecting with loved ones


These aren’t just self-care practices — they’re thyroid care.

"I would highly recommend working with Vesna. She is so motivating, supportive, and non-judgmental. After approaching mid-40s, she helped me realize, it may be beneficial to make some changes. My cholesterol dropped 30 points, I'm no longer taking medications for allergies, all with real food. She's encouraged me to eat healthier and helped me learn how to  truly nourish my body. I feel amazing and not as bloated all the time!"
