Week 4 - Return & Strengthen
Building strength and nourishing the blood as the body settles into a steadier rhythm.
Week 4 is about strength and transition.
Meals feel more familiar and satisfying, helping you move gently back toward everyday eating while still supporting recovery.
This is the week where food begins to feel normal again, without losing the care that recovery still requires.
