    How Trauma Can Cause Chronic Pain with Grace Secker

    In this enlightening episode, I sit down with Grace Secker, a passionate psychotherapist and chronic pain coach specializing in the intricate connection between the mind and body. Grace shares her personal journey from experiencing chronic pain and trauma to discovering transformative healing methods that integrate emotional awareness with physical well-being. Listeners will gain valuable insights into how unresolved emotions can manifest as physical pain and learn practical tools to foster a healthier relationship with themselves. Grace's early inspiration to become a therapist stemmed from her own experiences with depression, anxiety, and trauma as a teenager. The disconnect between mental and physical health in traditional medical training often overlooks the mind-body connection. Chronic pain can be a manifestation of unresolved emotional trauma, often exacerbated by stressors in life. The concept of trauma includes both "big T" traumas (e.g., abuse, loss) and "little t" traumas (e.g., emotional neglect, bullying). Understanding one's "window of tolerance" is crucial for recognizing how individuals respond to stress and trauma. Pain reprocessing therapy focuses on retraining the brain to stop sending danger signals to the body, allowing for emotional healing. Somatic practices, including breathwork and mindfulness, help individuals reconnect with their bodies and emotions. Grace emphasizes the importance of building a better relationship with oneself to foster healing and emotional regulation. Story of a participant in Grace's program who overcame debilitating symptoms through the mind-body healing method.

    How to Rock Perimenopause and Prepare for Menopause with Julie Daniluk

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 21, 2024 43:20


    This episode helps women in perimenopause think forward and prepare the best they can for menopause.  The more we prepare our bodies with these healthy living tips, the easier that transition will be. Julie Daniluk helps us have an empowered, positive mindset about going through these female changes and gives us lots of hope about what that season of life can look like. It's also a great episode for women already in menopause, as we cover lots of things that can help with challenging menopausal symptoms.  Julie Daniluk is a nutritionist who specializes in helping women navigate menopause and improve their overall health. Menopause is directly tied to blood sugar levels, and controlling blood sugar is crucial for managing symptoms like hot flashes. Eating foods in the right order can make a significant difference in blood sugar levels and reduce hot flashes. Mindset is important during menopause, and embracing the transition as a time of empowerment and wisdom can lead to a more positive experience. Addressing past traumas through therapy, such as EMDR, can help improve mindset and overall well-being during menopause. Anti-inflammatory nutrition is key for managing menopause symptoms, including avoiding foods that cause inflammation and focusing on whole, nutrient-dense foods. Women in menopause may need to adjust their diet and lifestyle to support hormonal balance and weight management. Getting professional help, such as testing for thyroid function and working with a nutritionist, can be beneficial for women struggling with menopause symptoms and weight gain. Building a supportive community and seeking accountability can also be helpful in navigating menopause and making positive changes to health and lifestyle. Women should consider reaching out for professional help if they experience symptoms of inflammation, such as joint pain, fatigue, or mood swings, or if they are struggling with weight management during menopause.

    What are Healthy Fats and Why Do We Need Them? - with Udo Erasmus

    Play Episode Listen Later May 26, 2024 39:55


    There is a lot of confusion in the world about healthy fats. What are the healthy fats? Why do we need them? Why are so many people getting essential fatty acids wrong?  We answer all that and more in this engaging episode with Udo Erasmus. Udo got interested in healthy oils and fats after being poisoned by pesticides and realizing the importance of nutrition for healing and health. The body is constantly rebuilding itself, and the quality of the food, water, and air we consume plays a crucial role in this process. Essential fatty acids, including Omega-3 and Omega-6, are vital for health and cannot be produced by the body. They must be obtained from outside sources. The processing of oils by the industry, including the use of corrosive chemicals and high heat, damages the oils and creates toxic molecules that the body cannot break down. Using damaged oils, especially for frying, can lead to health problems and interfere with normal bodily functions. The balance between Omega-3 and Omega-6 is important, and both types of fatty acids should be obtained from sources made with health in mind. Oils made with health in mind should be used in food after cooking, not for frying, and should be protected from light, oxygen, and heat to retain their health benefits. The fear of fats in the past was misguided, and fats are essential for various bodily functions, including brain health and energy production. Udo has online resources and courses available on his website, including information on fats and digestive health. Udo's products, including oils, digestive enzymes, probiotics, and greens, can be found on his website.

    Do you feel like you are doing everything right, but still don't feel better? Or maybe you know something is off but can't put your finger on it.  Andrea Nakayama, a Functional Nutritionist, joins me for a chat about mystery health issues.  She shares her personal story of her late husband's diagnosis and death from a brain tumor, which sparked her passion for functional nutrition. Andrea highlights the gaps she experienced in the medical system, including the lack of personalized treatment and the focus on the diagnosis rather than the person. She emphasizes the importance of a therapeutic partnership between patients and providers and the need to focus on the roots of chronic conditions. Andrea introduces the concept of the "3 roots" of chronic conditions: genes, digestion, and inflammation. She discusses the importance of addressing non-negotiables such as sleep, poop, and blood sugar balance for overall health. Andrea encourages individuals to tune into their own bodies and track their symptoms and reactions to different foods and lifestyle factors. She emphasizes the need for a systems-based approach to health and the interconnectedness of different bodily functions. Andrea recommends starting with the basics of sleep, poop, and blood sugar balance before considering specialized testing or interventions. Andrea founded the Functional Nutrition Alliance, where she trains providers in the science and art of functional nutrition practice.

    At least 35% of children are overweight or obese, the number has more than tripled since the 1970s. Autism prevalence has gone up 317% since 2000. At least 10% of kids in the US have been diagnosed with ADHD, and another 10% have anxiety. Rates of kids with life-threatening allergies, asthma and even childhood cancer are all rising. Health statistics for our kids aren't moving in the right direction.  I'm guessing that no parent listening would want their kid to be a part of one of these statistics, but what are we doing to ensure that? Today, pediatrician Dr. Joel Warsh, known as Dr. Gator joins me on the show for a chat about what our role as parents is in the midst of these health challenges for our kids.  He'll share tips for raising healthy kids, dietary recommendations and some encouragement for parents who might be feeling overwhelmed by all this!  Resources in the podcast: Dr. Warsh's new book!  Parenting at Your Child's Pace Dr. Gator's Supplement Store - Tiny Roots Apothecary  Download Dr. Gator's Vaccine Information and Simple shifts for a healthier family⁠ guide NOW for FREE.  Books about technology and social media: Teens Guide to Social Media, The Anxious Generation Stats on kids mental health Stats on kids with autism Connect with Dr. Joel “Gator” Warsh: On Instagram Connect with the Daily Wellness Community  website: dailywellnesscommunity.com IG: @dailywellnesscommunity Facebook: Daily Wellness Community Leave a podcast review on Apple Podcasts Some products I mention may be affiliate links, which means I may receive a small commission if you decide to make a purchase through one of my links.

    How to Teach Your Kids About Healthy Food

    I share four ways you can teach your kids about healthy food in this episode.  I love it when parents ask me about that, because it means that they are not just interested in feeding their kids healthy food but in teaching them the WHY behind it!  And if we can teach our kids about what foods are healthy, how to shop for them and the benefits of them, they are much more likely to continue eating healthy food when they leave our home.  The four ideas I share have to do with: Helping them understand the foods that God made and the foods that man made.  Connecting your kids to where their food comes from. Taking them to the store with you and teaching them specific things there. Teaching them about the benefits of healthy food.  Some strategies are more applicable to kids at certain ages, and I talk through that as well.  If you love the episode, please take a minute to leave us a rating and review if applicable, we appreciate it!

    On this educational episode, Gretch from @nevertox helps us understand the risks associated with Botox.  With the percentage of women receiving Botox injections on a normal basis increasing rapidly, we all need to think about this very intentionally so we can make informed choices.  She explains the history of Botox, what it is and all the uses for it. We talk about the warnings that are on the box and how the warnings given to patients are often woefully inadequate.  She also explains how someone can be injured (FYI - it can be a single exposure) and what the wide variety of symptoms from Botox injury can be. Gretch believes that there is no safe amount of Botox.  She works with a support group of 36,000 individuals injured by Botox, but this is still a very small percentage of the people who have suffered negative impacts.  Lastly, we discuss resources for those who are dealing with a Botox injury. As women, this is something we need to be very educated about! So, after you listen. Please share this episode and the resources below with those you love!
