She emphasized the role of oxytocin in creating a receptive matrix for new neural pathways and the significance of connection and safety in postpartum periods. Welch highlighted the three laws of tissue nutrition in Ayurveda: irrigation, selectivity, and transformation, and stressed the need for trusting one's innermost essence for making choices. She also touched on the impact of stress on hormonal balance and the importance of a supportive environment during postpartum. Dr. Welch has been a lifelong student of life and medicine. She has practiced Āyurveda, is licensed as a Doctor of Oriental Medicine, and authored Balance Your Hormones, Balance Your Life: Achieving Optimal Health and Wellness Through Ayurveda, Chinese Medicine and Western Science and, The Four Qualities of Effective Physicians: Practical Ayurvedic Wisdom for Modern Physicians.

I am delighted to have Dr. Claudia Welch joining me as my guest on the podcast today.Shifting Focus on Women's HealthThe conversation on women's health initially focused on external factors. However, there is currently more awareness of the importance of internal nourishment and rest. Rest and nourishment are crucial for maintaining balance with all the external distractions that draw our attention outward. Nurturing inner stability creates ripples of positivity, much like the various cycles of nature. Inner Attention Versus External FocusWe need to focus on our internal motivations rather than our external actions. While actions like cooking or caregiving may seem nourishing, the internal mindset driving those actions is what truly matters. In Ayurveda, nurturing our inner world is essential as it helps reduce the impact of fears and external seductions, allowing for more balanced and grounded lives.Shifting Interests in HealthOver time, there has been a shift from focusing on the biological details of health, like hormones, to a broader view of how people live their lives. According to Eastern philosophy, health imbalances stem from internal belief systems, fears, and seductions. That is why we need to address the root causes of those imbalances rather than focusing on biological symptoms for lasting health.Hormone Management: HRT vs. Bioidentical HormonesClaudia emphasizes the benefits of bioidentical hormones over traditional hormone replacement therapy (HRT), explaining that while lifestyle, diet, and herbal remedies can help with menopausal symptoms like hot flashes and insomnia, they may not offer immediate relief for those with a history of poor health habits. Even though those symptoms are not life-threatening, the stress they cause can have long-term health impacts. If bioidentical hormones are inaccessible, HRT might be an acceptable alternative despite the associated risks.The Uncertainty of Medical ScienceClaudia is skeptical about overly confident medical opinions and encourages everyone to be cautious and self-aware when using hormone therapy. In the decades she spent studying hormones, she learned that there is no one-size-fits-all solution. Stress and Hormonal Imbalance in MidlifeStress, especially during midlife, significantly impacts our hormonal balance. The emotional challenges many women face in their late 40s and 50s, like the fear of aging and death, can amplify stress. The demands of caring for children and aging parents often worsen these hormonal imbalances.Confronting the Fear of DeathReflecting on a personal experience in India, Claudia once believed she did not fear death. However, she felt afraid when she faced the possibility of dying from hepatitis. She feels it is essential for us to intentionally engage with the concept of death as a natural part of life.The Practice of Dying DailyClaudia has come to embrace the idea of dying daily, a practice from various spiritual traditions. That means we need to let go of our professional, personal, or emotional attachments if we want to learn about the impermanence of life. By surrendering to that process, we can reduce our fear of death while supporting our hormonal health.Embracing Loss and Personal TransformationLetting go means accepting that we cannot control everything. As we age, we must make peace with the inevitable losses we will face. Even though the void our losses leave can feel overwhelming, it ultimately leads to transformation and growth.Menopause Support and Facing MortalityClaudia created the Menopause Chronicles, a community to support one another and share experiences for women navigating menopause. She is also excited to...

I also introduce the Gunas (Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas) and their influences on the mind, and elaborate on how the modern world can disrupt this balance. Practical steps, including the Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) technique, are offered to help you create more space and steadiness in your mind. Additional resources, such as a deep breath meditation and a resilience workbook, are recommended for further support. Preparing for Pitta Season: Self-Care Practices Clearing the Mind: Meditation and Breath Work Ayurvedic View of the MindMind and Sensory Impressions The Gunas: Sattva, Rajas, and TamasUnderstanding Cortisol and RajaHow the Five Elements Relate to the Mind    Balancing the Gunas in Modern LifeCultivating Sattva: Practical TipsThe Role of Constitution in Mental Balance Harnessing the Mind Through Practices Nadi Shodhana: A Breathwork PracticeNadi Shodhana Instructions:  https://youtu.be/Biry04x7rFMRelated Episodes:  Episode 2:  The Lens of AyurvedaEpisode 3 - What the Vata?!Episode 8 - Oh Pitta, You're Hot!

In this podcast I chat with Noreen Dillman about the world's oldest system of natural medicine - Ayurveda. Noreen transitioned from being an attorney for 15 years to becoming a Natural Food Chef and a student of Ayurvedic Medicine. She is currently taking a masters degree in Ayurvedic Medicine at Maharishi International University.

While in the legal profession, Noreen held a number of leadership positions including serving as President of the Connecticut Chapter of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys. Curious about why so many of her clients were succumbing to chronic health conditions, causing themselves and their families undue stress, Noreen turned her focus in 2008 to the natural healing arts. A longtime student of yoga (currently, over 25 years), she completed her yoga teacher training at the Sivananda Ashram Bahamas (200 hr. RYT-2009) and became a student at the Ayurvedic Institute, New Mexico (2010-2012), studying under Doctors Vasant Lad and Claudia Welch (completing Ayurvedic Studies Program Level 1 and part of Level 2). While attending the Ayurvedic Institute, Noreen became keenly interested in the connection between food and healing and completed a Health Coaching program with the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and the Professional Chef's Training Program at the Natural Gourmet Institute, NYC, founded by natural foods pioneer Annemarie Colbin, author of the seminal book Food and Healing. For ten years, Noreen pursued her passion for natural foods as a chef (mostly plant-based), events planner, writer and editor, public policy advocate, and health and culinary educator – bringing her travel and work from coast to coast. The Pandemic brought Noreen full-circle to Ayurveda as she is currently enrolled in a 3-year Master's Degree program in Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine at Maharishi International University and is serving as U.S. Admissions Counselor for the University with a focus on its graduate academic programs in Ayurveda. Noreen is also the creator/producer of The Healthy Peaceful Podcast, most recently renamed Ayurveda with Noreen. She birthed her podcast on September 18, 2020.

When it comes to our emotions, most of us have experienced the influence of hormones. Even a slight fluctuation in our hormonal system can affect how we think and feel. As I recover from burnout, I keep wondering, How much of what I'm going through right now is related to changes in my hormones? How much of this breaking down and my emotionality is related to perimenopause? How can I harness the wisdom that comes with this life transition without being jerked around by my symptoms? I wanted to ask my friend and colleague Brodie Welch these questions. As a Licensed Acupuncturist, board-certified herbalist, and someone with immense personal and progressional experience with burnout and menopause, I knew she would have some insight for me. I want us to normalize perimenopause. I want us to embrace the gifts and wisdom that come with this life transition. I want us to have the information and support to feel as good as possible while we move through it. I hope my conversation with Brodie helps you see your body, your emotions, and your current life stage with new respect and admiration.

Lisa felt adrift when an early menopause made itself known in her life at the age of only 41. In our conversation she shared what a lonely place it was to be in, that came with a feeling of disempowerment. The turning point for her came whilst sharing her story in a women's circle, something she wasn't keen on doing at the time but later came to know the absolute value of sharing your story with others. In the circle she met a woman called Diane Danzebrink author of ‘Make Menopause Matter' and that opened up a whole new vista of understanding for her. She was more than happy to share her story again here on Lady Time.

A discussion on how women can be balanced through Ayurveda and aligning with the powers that be.

Uncertainty can be hard to deal with. Not knowing where you're headed and what's in store can make us feel like we need to do something to exert control over our experience, but sometimes there's simply nothing we can do but wait. Wait to see what happens; wait to see what's coming; wait to see what guidance, inspiration, and truth we may find along the way. In Episode 21, Brodie talks with her sister, Dr. Claudia Welch, DOM, about the feeling of being amid change, and finding ways to be comfortable as reality is shifting around us.   In this episode, we explore: The layer of our being: the koshas How do you figure out what is yours to do in times of great change? Sūtaka: a transitional time How can you soften the impact of uncertain times? How does Fall relate to letting go and times of uncertainty? “Unbecoming” our patterns Adjusting hopes, dreams, identities, and plans when we're in a state of flux Finding truth in the midst of information/media overload The importance of internal stabilization during unstable times Discerning between stable and unstable times   Resources:  Dr. Claudia Welch's website
