Managing Chronic Symptoms: My Lyme Journey & the Science of Day/Night Recovery
Running a farm and a business requires stamina, clarity, and resilience. For me, it also requires something else entirely: intentional, daily symptom management.
I live with chronic Lyme disease. That reality shapes how I move through my days and how I rest at night. Joint pain, inflammation, nervous system overload, and deep fatigue aren’t occasional visitors — they’re things I actively manage every single day.
This is why I don’t just sell our formulations at Fingerboard Farm.
I use them as tools to function, recover, and restore balance.
You don’t need a chronic condition to benefit from this science. Whether you’re dealing with inflammation, stress, overtraining, or poor sleep, the goal is the same: Homeostasis.
What I’ve learned is simple but powerful — your body needs different support during the day than it does at night.
My Medical Reality: Living With Lyme
Chronic Lyme isn’t just about fatigue. It’s systemic.
On any given day, symptoms can include joint and muscle pain, inflammation, brain fog, and nervous system dysregulation. There’s no “push through it” mentality that works long-term. Everything hinges on regulation — keeping the body calm enough to function, and rested enough to repair.
That’s where intentional, science-backed formulations come in.
From Farm to Pharm: Why Formulation Matters
At Fingerboard Farm, we grow with purpose — but we also formulate with precision.
When you’re using plant medicine as part of your health routine, quality and intent matter. Cannabinoids interact directly with systems that regulate pain, inflammation, stress response, and sleep. A product designed for daytime use should support function, not sedate. A nighttime formula should signal repair, not just knock you out.
That distinction is everything.
The Daytime Strategy: Functional Recovery With Watermelon Gummies
Goal: Recovery & Regulation — without losing clarity
During the day, I need to stay alert, focused, and physically capable. Watermelon Gummies are part of how I manage inflammation and nervous system stress while still running a business and a farm.
These are designed for all-day use. The formulation works with your body to help down-regulate stress responses and pain signals without impairing focus or energy.
Think of it as functional recovery — supporting your system so you can keep moving through your day with less friction.
The Nighttime Strategy: Deep Repair With Midnight Magic
Goal: Restorative Sleep & Cellular Repair
When the day ends, the strategy shifts completely.
Sleep is not passive — it’s the most powerful anti-inflammatory and healing state your body has. Midnight Magic is formulated specifically to support sleep architecture, helping the body transition into deeper, more restorative REM cycles.
This is when real repair happens — immune function resets, inflammation lowers, and the nervous system recalibrates.
You cannot shortcut this step.
Why a Day-to-Night Routine Works
Using one product for everything doesn’t make sense biologically.
Your body has different needs depending on the time of day. When you align your support with those natural rhythms, the results are more noticeable and more sustainable.
This day-and-night approach isn’t about masking symptoms.
It’s about supporting the body’s natural healing processes — around the clock.
