Before you choose.
Why take the class if I can shop the protocol?
You can shop an Edit without buying a class. The class gives you the fuller explanation of your changing body, starting with food, sleep, movement, and daily habits. Learn where botanicals, supplements, and functional tests may fit, with recorded lessons and a companion guide to revisit. So you understand the why behind your choices. Supplements and tests are purchased separately.
What is it actually like to take a Rhea class?
Like hanging out with your best friend who also happens to be a doctor. You’re learning, laughing, connecting the dots, and getting excited that you have options. We start with food, sleep, movement, and daily habits, then explore where herbs, supplements, and lab testing may fit. You get the whole conversation, with recorded lessons, your companion guide, and detailed product notes at the end of the class. Come back to it all at your own pace.
How long is the course?
The main recorded lessons in this class run for about 31 minutes. Allow extra time for the companion guide and practices. It’s self paced, with lifetime access, so there’s no schedule to keep up with. Watch a little, put something into practice, and come back when you’re ready.

The Stress Edit
Stress & Restorative Practices
You don’t need another demanding wellness routine. Begin with the load you’re carrying, the recovery you’re getting, and small rituals that make space for you.
Before the bottle.
The bigger picture.
Nourishment first.
Begin with regular, satisfying meals, enough energy, varied plants, and hydration. Consider what your day needs before adding more formulas.
Rest, rhythm & movement.
Look at sleep, daylight, movement that fits your capacity, and the demands on your day. Recovery deserves a place in the plan.
Notice your pattern.
Keep a simple record of what has changed and when. Bring the details of daily demands & recovery into the conversation.
Choose the next step.
Review your history, current medicines and supplements, and existing results. A test or preparation should answer a specific question.

04 / Functional laboratory testingA closer look.
A closer look.
A clearer question.
Your numbers tell part of the story. Your experience tells another. Begin with a question, then choose testing that can help answer it.
The Stress Edit LabsWaking up already feeling behind?
Before adding another task to your morning, look at sleep, nourishment, light, and the demands on your day. This edit focuses on the cortisol response around waking, using carefully timed saliva samples. It can add information about that particular pattern; it cannot measure the whole weight of your stress or explain exhaustion by itself.
DUTCH Cortisol Awakening Response (CAR)
Cortisol normally rises around waking as part of your body’s daily rhythm. This test uses carefully timed saliva samples to look at that morning rise, called the cortisol awakening response or CAR. It can add detail to a conversation about sleep and stress patterns. It is separate from DUTCH Complete and has its own collection schedule.

Testing questions from this teaching
Daily demands & recovery
A question to bring to your clinician- The conversation
- What are you noticing, and what has changed? Start with the pattern discussed in the teaching.
- Keep in mind
- Existing results, symptoms, medicines, and the timing of collection all belong in the interpretation.
Sleep & coping practices
A question to bring to your clinician- The conversation
- Would testing help distinguish between plausible contributors, or would the next step be the same without it?
- Keep in mind
- Existing results, symptoms, medicines, and the timing of collection all belong in the interpretation.
Cortisol in context
A question to bring to your clinician- The conversation
- Which result would change your plan? Ask what a test can establish, what it cannot, and how it will be followed up.
- Keep in mind
- Existing results, symptoms, medicines, and the timing of collection all belong in the interpretation.
You do not need every test. Results belong alongside your history and clinical assessment; there is no single “optimal” number that fits every woman.
05 / Good questionsA little more
A little more
understanding.
Do I need everything in this edit?
No. The foundations come first. Product selections are individual options, not a stack to take together. Choose around your needs, history, and existing care.
Can I start with the teaching?
Absolutely. Watch the lessons, notice your own patterns, and return to the protocol when you have a clearer sense of the questions you want to explore.
Are labs and products included?
Labs and products are purchased separately through the linked Rhea stores. Availability, current labels, and pricing are confirmed there.
How do I make this personal?
Bring your symptoms, medicines, supplements, and existing lab results to your clinician. Together, decide what to try, how to use it, what to monitor, and when to reassess.
Educational information, not an individual treatment plan. Labs and supplements are purchased separately. Purchases through the dispensary may support Rhea Teachings.
