Anxiety is the leading cause of ill health for Australian women aged 15 to 44. You might say its at epidemic proportions. For those aged 45 to 64, anxiety ranks fourth, with depression close behind in fifth place. These are alarming statistics, and they highlight a critical need for more effective solutions. We know that traditional approaches like therapy and medication aren't always the right for everyone, and the numbers reflect that. That's why we've invited Jessica Maguire to introduce us to the vagus nerve and explore how regulating our nervous system can help reduce anxiety and lead to healthier, more balanced lives as we age. Here are the key takeaways: The Vagus Nerve Connection: The vagus nerve is the body's communication highway between the brain and body, playing a crucial role in regulating stress, emotions, and physical health. Mind-Body Interconnection: Emotional states like anxiety or trauma can manifest as physical symptoms such as gut issues or chronic pain. Addressing both mind and body is key to healing. Regulating the Nervous System: Daily practices like breathwork, mindfulness, and even physical exercise can help support vagus nerve function, bringing the body back to balance when it becomes dysregulated. Personalised Healing: Recognise when your nervous system is under stress and take steps to regulate it. Tools like breathing exercises, nutrition, and self-awareness can help rewire your responses over time. Long-Term Benefits: This isn't a quick fix. Learning to regulate your nervous system is a gradual process, but it's essential for reducing anxiety, improving overall health, and aging well. Stay tuned as we continue to explore how regulating our vagal nerve may help more than you realise.

During perimenopause and menopause, we face an urgent epidemic that's been normalised - even trivialised. Tune into the podcast to hear a very candid conversation with our resident Clinical Nutritionist, Lynsey Koch, to help you understand the health risks of visceral fat during perimenopause and menopause—risks that affect even 'skinny' women. Lynsey is here to capture your attention and encourage you to view weight through the lens of health. Is it time to reframe weight as a medical issue rather than a trivial, superficial concern? Here's some key points discussed: Visceral vs. Subcutaneous Fat: Visceral fat surrounds internal organs and poses greater health risks than subcutaneous fat, which lies under the skin. Glucose and Insulin: Imbalances in glucose and insulin levels are key factors in weight gain and overall metabolic health. Impact of Menopause: Hormonal changes during menopause increase visceral fat, complicating weight management for women. Health Risks of Visceral Fat: Excess visceral fat is linked to heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers. Food Industry and Bliss Point Foods: The food industry designs "bliss point" foods to be highly palatable and addictive, contributing to overeating and obesity. Impact of Cortisol: Chronic stress elevates cortisol levels, promoting fat storage, particularly visceral fat, and hindering weight loss. Need to Test Fasting Insulin Levels: Monitoring fasting insulin levels can indicate insulin resistance early and help tailor effective weight loss strategies. Weight and Longevity Link: Maintaining a healthy weight is crucial for longevity, reducing the risk of chronic diseases, and enhancing quality of life. Worrying Weight and Obesity Epidemic: Rising rates of overweight and obesity are leading to widespread health issues and increased healthcare costs. Bye Bye Belly Fat 14-Day Reset: This program, designed for peri and menopausal women, offers anti-inflammatory nutrition, targeted training, and expert coaching to reduce visceral fat and improve metabolic health.

Let's face it, we're in our avocado toast era, and Carla is here to guide you through it! In this episode, she tackles the high interest rates that make home buying and mortgage renewals stressful. Forget the jokes about millennials and brunch; this is about understanding how our daily choices impact our financial wellbeing. High interest rates affect not just mortgages but also the everyday costs of goods and services. Carla breaks it down: Recognize your thought patterns, understand your emotional triggers, and take conscious action. Cut unnecessary spending, negotiate with lenders, and stay proactive. With mindfulness and determination, you can navigate high interest rates and build a brighter financial future.    Please make sure to rate, review, and follow us for more financial tips, tricks, and tactics.

In this episode, our guest, Shanna Whan, the CEO, creator, and founder of Sober in the Country, shares her personal journey and the stories she's gathered from individuals across Australia. This episode explores the challenges and societal expectations during the holiday season synonymous with wine, champagne, and spirits. Episode Highlights: Social Pressures and Stigmas: The conversation delves into the societal expectations and stigmas associated with alcohol consumption.

"If you're asking yourself if there's a problem, there's probably a problem." 2. "People who don't have a problem with alcohol don't ask themselves if they do have a problem." 3.

This week we meet Dr. Olivia Lesslar and explore the relationship between menopause and anxiety. Here's some key points discussed: Menopausal Anxiety: The episode sheds light on the challenges of menopause and its significant psychological impact. Shelley highlights a staggering 92% of individuals in The Aging Project community reported menopausal anxiety. This staggering statistic underscores the urgency of exploring effective coping strategies. The Power of a Holistic Approach: Dr. Lesslar introduces the term "Psycho Neuro Endo Immunology" to describe her professional background which emphasises the inseparability of the body and mind. Science-Backed Techniques: The conversation delves into lesser-known anxiety management techniques, such as meditation, visualisation, immersing oneself in nature, and breathwork. What's remarkable is that these techniques are all grounded in solid scientific research. Dr. Lesslar reveals the science behind these methods, providing a compelling case for their efficacy. Expanding the Anxiety Toolkit: Dr. Lesslar advocates for expanding the toolkit for managing anxiety. She encourages individuals to explore a plethora of options, empowering them to tailor their anxiety management strategies to their unique needs. Dr. Lesslar underscores the pivotal role of education in mental health empowerment. Education equips individuals to make informed decisions about their mental well-being. The provision of resources is essential for fostering mental health awareness, ultimately enabling individuals to take ownership of their mental health.
