Living with physical, mental, or emotional pain can leave us questioning God's love and goodness for our lives, but as today's “First Monday Story” reminds us, all pain matters to God, as it's an invitation to know and be known by Him. Listen in as Lindsay Wells, from our Charleston, South Carolina community, shares her journey of living with chronic back pain and how coming to terms with her suffering is what led her to truly understand and experience God's presence. This is a story that will remind you that the Lord is in the midst of your pain, and, as Lindsay so sweetly says, “that's a really beautiful thing.” ____________________________________________________ Listen to a similar story: Sheryl Trawick- Ep. 330: “The Healing Power of Scripture” Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Lindsay and all of our past storytellers!!

Trusting God in our darkest seasons of life and believing He is working all things for good can be a struggle for many of us. However, today's storyteller, Alissa Parrish, from our Montgomery, Alabama community, reminds us that it's during the difficult, the hard, and the waiting that God longs for you to seek His presence, ask for His guidance, and surrender to His will. While this is a story of loss and grief, it's also one of hope and redemption as Alissa reminds us that God's promises and plans are always bigger than our problems and pain. ____________________________________________________ VERSE OF THE WEEK: Psalm 130:5: “I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His Word I put my hope.” CHALLENGE OF THE WEEK: Are you in a season of waiting, longing for God to answer your prayers more quickly or help you out of a dark season?

In Episode 165 of the Fit Mother Project podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi sits down with Katie Hess, founder of LOTUSWEI, to explore the gentle but powerful world of flower essences. They open with a clear distinction between flower essences and more familiar plant modalities like herbs and essential oils, then lay out how essences are made and why they're aimed at shifting the emotional patterns that quietly drive our habits, stress, and sleep.Dr. Balduzzi and Katie dive into practical use cases for women over 40—calming an overactive mind at night, softening stress responses, easing body-image spirals, and reopening a guarded heart. Katie shares real-world stories from her practice, along with simple “start today” rituals using drops in water or misting, and the intuitive method of selecting a flower you're naturally drawn to.The conversation expands into the science-adjacent terrain, touching on forest bathing research and why even short immersions in nature can imprint the nervous system for days. Katie explains how dilution in essence-making is designed to work at the “pattern level,” complementing (not replacing) conventional care and fitting seamlessly alongside nutrition, exercise, and mindset work.They wrap with a beginner's roadmap: pick one essence, build a tiny daily ritual around it, and notice shifts in mood, posture, and self-talk over a few weeks. If you've been curious about non-pharmaceutical, nature-based support for stress and sleep—or you simply want a gentler way to change stubborn habits—this conversation offers an accessible place to start.Key Takeaways:Flower essences = the flower's energetic imprint in water; different from herbs/oilsWork on emotional/energetic patterns that drive habits and health choicesPassionflower essence helps quiet “monkey mind” and support sleepPeony softens scarcity/lack; attracts possibility and easeDaisy dissolves rigidity/over-seriousness; restores lightness and joyRose opens the heart; supports healing from heartbreak/guardednessJasmine supports self-acceptance and radiance (helpful for body-image ruts)Lotus amplifies all essences; accelerates insight and growthForest bathing can lower cortisol and boost immunity with lasting effectsMaking essences: solar/lunar infusion → preserved “mother” → serial dilutionsDilution increases depth of action (pattern-level), akin to homeopathic theoryHow to use: 5 drops, 5x/day in mouth or water; mists and anointing oils also workUse intuition: we're drawn to the flowers we most need right nowEssences complement (not replace) medical care; think “emotional root support”Start simple: take the quiz, choose one blend, and build a daily ritualWhere to Discover More with Katie Hess:Website: http://lotuswei.com/fitfamilyUse discount code FITFAMILY at checkout and receive 10% off your order (one per customer).Take the Master Flower Quiz to discover your most resonant flower essence.

Music is more than just sound, it's a universal language that connects us and heals us. In this episode, I sit down with Alison Hughey, a gifted music therapist who brings people together through the power of music. From adults who are neurodivergent and struggle with stillness, to individuals living with dementia, Alison creates pathways of safety and belonging through sound. Our conversation explores how music reaches the into the unconscious parts of us, and deep into our body and stirs powerful memories and emotions. Alison shares how the nervous system can be calmed through melodies, beats, lyrics, singing and movement. We also talk about music as a tool for emotional expression. For trauma survivors, songwriting or playing music can help release a variety of feelings from anger to grief to anxiety. For those with dementia, familiar songs can connect them to happy moments in their past. Alison's dogs even joins the conversation, adding to the ambience and authenticity of the episode by singing their own rendition of, “Let's All Bark at the Lawn Mower Guy.” It was such a pleasure speaking with Alison about music, and taking a deeper dive into the magic of music therapy.

Dr. Keira Barr is a board-certified dermatologist and pioneer in psychodermatology who diagnosed her own melanoma — and discovered that the real culprit behind most skin struggles isn't bacteria, hormones, or even genetics. It's your nervous system, stuck in stress mode. Inside this episode, you'll discover: • The stress–skin pipeline: Why cortisol breaks down collagen faster than age. • Acne + anxiety: 75% of acne sufferers also struggle with stress — and why flare-ups mirror your emotions. • Eczema, psoriasis & hives decoded: The specific emotions tied to each, from grief to suppressed anger. • Skin as armor: How trauma imprints on your skin, even decades later. • The 2-minute ritual: A self-touch practice that activates oxytocin and calms your skin from the inside out. • Generational echoes: Why mom's stress during pregnancy predisposes babies to eczema. • The vacation effect: Why your skin clears when you leave your stress behind — not because of creams. • The shame loop: How picking and prodding are coping strategies, not bad habits. • Beauty, redefined: “Why would I be anti anything about myself? Beauty is acceptance of who we are in our skin.” This isn't about adding more steps to your routine. It's about understanding that your skin is your nervous system's billboard. Dr. Barr shows you how to address the root cause of inflammation from the inside out. Stop fighting your skin and start listening to it.

He channeled his experiences into stand-up comedy, eventually creating The GIs of Comedy Tour in 2010, a groundbreaking comedic troupe that has performed across the United States and in nearly two dozen countries, bringing healing laughter to military and civilian audiences alike. Lynn and Thom dive deep into how humor became his lifeline, the challenges of transitioning from military to civilian life, and his mission to help other veterans through the transformative power of comedy.

Can depression be healed without antidepressants? Josh Trent welcomes Pixie Acia, Spiritual Wellness Coach, to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 771, to share how nutraceuticals helped her transition off 15 years of antidepressants, why trauma shows up in our bodies until we face it, and how breathwork, community, and cycle-breaking practices can unlock healing far beyond pharmaceuticals. Nutraceuticals from Altrient (LivOn Labs) In order to repair the structural damage caused by a continual barrage of toxic substances and pathogens, your body requires a constant supply of phospholipids. Whilst humans can synthesise some phospholipid compounds, others are sourced from food. Phospholipids that are obtained from the diet are called ‘essential phospholipids'. The liposomes used in Altrient products are made from essential phospholipids that include a high percentage of Phosphatidylcholine (PC). These liposomes not only provide optimum protection and transport, but they also satisfy the body's need for PC, omega-6 fatty acids, and choline. Now Altrient has taken the power of LET out of the laboratory and put it into your hands. It's why Altrient products are so effective. High-performance nutrients delivering enhanced absorption! Try it for yourself In This Episode, Pixie Acia Uncovers: [01:10] Nutraceuticals: Natural + More Efficient than Anti-Depressants The role of nutraceuticals in treating depression.

Why depression is a combination of trauma and imbalances in the brain. We can't heal from depression with just one practice.

They help not just build the foundational blocks in the brain, but also in the gut, affecting the serotonin and giving you the essential support that it needs to not be depressed." — Pixie Acia "Your nervous system is looking for familiar situations to identify whether it's safe or not. When we're used to repressing it, we aren't listening to the body to know if we're safe or not. And then we'll end up finding ourselves in similar situations again." — Pixie Acia
Ever tried a plant based diet but it didn't quite “work” the way you hoped? Maybe you saw a little progress, but the fatigue, brain fog, stubborn weight, or nagging symptoms didn't fully budge and stay gone. You're not alone, friend—and it doesn't mean your body can't heal.
Welcome back to Beautifully Broken, where healing meets high performance. In this episode, I sit down with Dean Hall—an inspiring adventurer whose story blends tragedy, survival, and extraordinary feats. Dean's life was upended by the sudden loss of his wife and a severe cancer diagnosis. Instead of surrendering, he swam the entire 187‑mile length of Oregon's Willamette River, while living with active cancer. That grueling, frigid journey led to a radical remission—one medicine declared impossible.Dean then turned to forest bathing—walking and sleeping under ancient trees—to heal physically and emotionally. Through intentionally connecting with nature, including ice‑bath practice, he not only restored his body but resurrected his spirit. His path reframes traditional psychology around "BioWild," a nature‑rooted approach emphasizing flow, recharge, and giving from abundance. It's a story of resilience, purpose, and honoring your body's intelligence. Tune in for lessons on mindset, radical ownership of your health, and how to find healing in wild places.Episode Highlights[00:00] - Dean's life-changing swim and the shocking moment his leukemia seemingly vanished[02:16] - Holding two world records and the physical toll of cold, open water endurance swims[05:14] - The technique behind “total immersion” swimming and the deeper mindset required[10:23] - Losing his wife to a brain tumor and the raw truth about navigating profound grief[22:08] - Moving back to Oregon, rediscovering purpose, and a sixth-grade journal that sparked the dream[30:45] - Rebuilding from rock bottom—Dean's first swim back and the power of momentum[36:10] - The unexpected hero: Dean's 79-year-old dad joins him for the 187-mile river journey[51:26] - Radical remission: the first blood test results that stunned Dean's oncologist[58:08] - Healing in the forest: how nature, solitude, and emotion unlocked true recovery[1:08:13] - Introducing “BioWild Psychology”—Dean's nature-based model for lasting mental and emotional health[1:15:10] - A message for anyone facing illness: reclaim your identity and be your own advocateLinks & Resources:Dean's Website: https://www.thewildcureway.com/“The Wild Cure” book: https://www.thewildcureway.com/booksUpgrade Your HealthThe Biological Blueprint Course: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintEarn 200 in BitCoin + Change your health BEAM Minerals: beamminerals.com/beautifullybrokenCode: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENLightPathLED: lightpathled.pxf.io/c/3438432/2059835/25794Code: beautifullybrokenSilver Biotics Wound Healing Gel: bit.ly/3JnxyDD30% off with Code: BEAUTIFULLYBROKENStemRegen: stemregen.co/products/stemregen?_ef_transaction_id=&oid=1&affid=52Code: beautifullybroken CONNECT WITH FREDDIEWork with Me: https://www.beautifullybroken.world/biological-blueprintWebsite and Store: (http://www.beautifullybroken.world) Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/beautifullybroken.world/) YouTube: (https://www.youtube.com/@freddiekimmel Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Looking 4 Healing Radio with Dr. LeAnn Fritz – The reality is—you are what you digest and assimilate. You can eat the cleanest diet in the world, but if your digestive system isn't working optimally, those nutrients never fully reach your cells. The result? A cascade of symptoms that may appear obvious—such as gas, bloating, or irregular bowel movements—or not-so-obvious, such as acne, low energy, brain fog...
