Every day, new supplements, powders, and miracle cleanses are pushed online disconnected from their ancestral foundations. And that’s why so many women still feel stuck — tired, bloated, moody, and confused.

If that’s you, you’re not alone. Many sisters I’ve worked with over the years were exhausted from trying one product after another, only to find no lasting relief. As a Clinical Herbalist trained in Islamic herbal medicine, I want to clear the confusion.

Of the four sacred months in Islam—Dhul Qa’idah, Dhul-Hijjah, Muharram, and Rajab—Muharram, starts the new Islamic year as the first lunar month. While we know clearly that our bad deeds carry a heavier weight during sacred months, so do our good deeds. And this is the perfect time to renew our efforts and intentions to cherish the gifts of health and well-being.

Yes, sure everyone talks about the keto diet, particularly in wellness groups advocating for weight loss, muscle growth, and metabolic health. Many women, including my own clients, have questioned whether these approaches align with long-term health, hormonal balance, and even the Sunnah of the Prophet (peace be upon him).

The truth? While keto and high-protein diets may provide short-term benefits, they often overlook critical micronutrients, gut health, and the body’s natural balance.

As the seasons shift, your body naturally craves renewal—just like the world around you. Spring is the perfect time to reset, cleanse, and align with your natural rhythms. If you’ve been feeling sluggish, bloated, or out of balance, these simple yet powerful wellness strategies will help you shed winter stagnation and step into the vibrancy of spring.
