Today's episode of the Period Chats podcast is all about matching your pleasure with your menstrual cycle. We're chatting with Blaire Horton from Holistic Rendezvous, who is a certified Nutrition Educator, certified Natural Chef, and a Holistic Nutrition Consultant. Blaire shares insights on the effects of hormone level changes on our libido and pleasure. Many people struggle with the topic of pleasure in general, and it may be the case that we don't take the time to explore the interplay between our moods, interest in sex, and needs in general with our menstrual cycles. This episode will give you tips on a myriad of ways you can find pleasure in each phase of your cycle, so you can work with your natural rhythms instead of being eluded or even frustrated by them. And, it will help shatter whatever taboos may be present for you around the topics of libido, the menstrual cycle, pleasure, and sex. Blaire explains that the follicular phase is like spring and tends to make us more adventurous. Ovulation usually increases sex drive as well as self esteem in general, so we brainstorm how to channel that to our advantage. The early luteal phase is sometimes known as the “romantic” phase, so we talk about what interpersonal interactions look like during that week. Then in the later luteal phase many of us transition into nesting and organizing. Many people get more introverted, and some of us have more negative self-talk compared to other phases, so we share tips for how to get rest and good nutrition during that part of the cycle. We also talk a lot about what self-care looks like, and how it may change throughout the menstrual cycle as well. The main point is that pleasure is personal. It doesn't necessarily mean sex with a partner, or anything sexual at all. It's what feels good to you. We hope everyone can have a pleasure routine because it's an important part of empowerment in our lives. Connect with Blaire: www.holisticrendezvous.com

Many female entrepreneurs are challenged with confidence blocks in their businesses. I talked with Cathy Cochrane about women feeling their power and how our experience with hormones affects how we feel in our business. To learn more about Cathy and her business: As a holistic nutrition consultant, Cathy Cochrane looks beyond calories and nutrients to what it takes to truly nourish yourself. She sees your relationship to food and eating as a doorway to a deeper relationship with your Self. For over 13 years, Cathy has been guiding women through that door by exploring their physiological needs from a place of the soul. http://wholehealthservices.ca/ https://oihc.ca/services/nutrition-coach Books recommended by Cathy: The Hormone Cure, Dr. Sara Gottfried, MD Mary Magdalene Revealed: The First Apostle, Her Feminist Gospel & the Christianity We Haven't Tried Yet by Meggan Watterson

If it asks you to put in a web address for the podcast, this is the one you want to use: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2019-hormone-summit/id1481771518. THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking the time to vote!!** This week's episode is with Ellie Thomas, Holistic Nutrition Consultant & Deep Transformational Coach, and it's all about nourishment. Ellie focuses on teaching women how to properly nourish their bodies in order to support not only hormonal health, but overall vitality. I love this approach, since most women need nourishment in their lives - it's a BIG missing piece. Particularly during Covid times, women put themselves last - and sometimes, what they focus on for themselves is pretty far away from being truly nourishing. In this interview we cover: -What the heck is nourishment, and what does it actually look like? -Why it's not just about WHAT you eat, but what your body does with it -How nourishing yourself reconnects you to your body, helping with a plethora of issues from PMS to disordered eating -How food is just as important to your community as it is to your hormones -What kicked off her personal health journey (there's probably some similarities to yours!) -Freebies! And how you can connect with Ellie Sink into the wisdom that Ellie has to share! As a Holistic Nutrition Consultant & Deep Transformational Coach, Ellie helps her clients nourish, step into, and love the extraordinary people they were created to be. Through her journey of learning to nourish and love her full self, on the mind, body, and soul levels, she has come to believe that stabilizing and nourishing the body allows us to visit and heal deeper aspects of our being, and that true health goes beyond the food. Ellie is the host of the Deeply Nourished for Life podcast, the creator of the Well Woman Reset Program, the co-founder of the Well Together Collective, a speaker and mentor for women aspiring to impact others on their health and wellness journey. You can find her at her website.

We’re conditioned to respect the medical community and follow our doctor’s advice. But when Julia Crozier was prescribed a drug that didn’t address the cause of her inflammation (and only offered a 0.1% improvement in masking her symptoms), she knew there had to be a better way. Julia did her own research and healed from the inside out, leveraging an understanding of nutrition to transform her gut health. Julia has a master’s degree in molecular biology with a concentration in stem cell research from Oakland University, and she is working toward a Holistic Nutrition Consultant certification. She also serves as a Research Assistant at Karmanos Cancer Institute where she is involved in ovarian cancer research. In light of her own experience, Julia is committed to helping others improve their gut health to achieve optimal performance. On this episode of Destined to Be, Julia joins us to share her struggle with bloating, acne and inflammation, discussing what inspired her to look for answers beyond what the doctors told her. She walks us through the process of using an elimination diet to identify food sensitivities and transform your gut health, explaining how the human body was designed to eat mostly greens—despite what we’ve been conditioned to believe! Listen in for Julia’s insight on the link between a strong microbiome and an effective immune system and learn what simple steps you can take TODAY to improve your gut health. Key Takeaways Julia’s background in molecular biology, stem cells and holistic nutrition How Julia struggled with bloating, acne and inflammation What inspired Julia to look for answers beyond what the doctors told her The difference between functional/holistic and western medicine Julia’s surprise that doctors are not required to take a single nutrition course How the elimination diet works to identify food sensitivities + transform gut health How to develop an abundance mindset around starting a plant-based diet Julia’s insight on how the human body evolved to eat mostly greens The steps you can take NOW to improve your gut health Add one serving of fruit or greens to meal Start with one liter of water per day Address sugar addiction with baby steps How the skin functions as our biggest organ of elimination The link between a strong microbiome and an effective immune system Connect with Julia Julia on LinkedIn Julia on Instagram Julia on Facebook Connect with Jeremiah & Mallory Destined to Be Jeremiah on LinkedIn Jeremiah on Facebook Jeremiah on Instagram Mallory on Instagram Resources PubMed Google Scholar

In Episode Ten of The Supercharged Podcast, we sit down with the ever magnetic, vibrant, + full-of-life Luka Symons to discuss our diet-driven society + take a closer look at what may be truly adding value + what may be potentially stripping our bodies from the important building blocks + nourishment that it needs for optimal health. Luka is a pillar within the Canadian School of Natural Nutrition, a Holistic Nutrition Consultant, committed teacher, devoted Mother, wife, + is hands down one of the most passionate (+ whew, knowledgeable!) food leaders we have ever had the pleasure of knowing. You will find Luka's approach to healing through food simple + straightforward, all the while celebrating + honouring the biochemical uniqueness we each possess. Her toolkit for healing with food includes the acknowledgment of the time honoured traditions like eating your good fats (yes!), filling your plate with rainbows of colour (to support your best friend, your liver), mandates that we follow our food supply chain closely (do you know where your food comes from?), + perhaps most importantly, paying honour + respect to the meals that both our direct ancestors + those from the land we are living on, have made. In following such a simple recipe for holistic wellness, we begin to witness drastic changes (for the better) in the amounts of inflammation we find running rampant in our bodies, our disorderly mood swings, acne, constipation, migraines, sensitives (the list goes on). While our conversation feels all too short + the need for so many of us to heal is vast, we encourage you to explore Luka's site + her Vitality Series which touches on topics from your brain, heart, + thyroid, to even histamines. It was truly our pleasure to speak with Luka of her story, her inspiration, + on-going commitment to supporting all of us in welcoming a healthier body, mind, + spirit which we all have the capacity to achieve, if we so choose.

I have been reading a lot about gut health, and gut feelings, and am intrigued. Do you believe that our gut truly affects our mood, and how does this work?   -Liz in Cooperstown Q2 - 7:27  I am a recovering sugar addict, and a mom of one. I want to know how to curb my sugar cravings and eat healthier in general! BUT, I get hung up on the fact that I have Oral Allergy Syndrome which causes my body to be oversensitive to the pollen in most fresh fruits and veggies. I get an allergic reaction including throat and tongue swelling. Common foods I cant have are apples, bananas, pears, peaches, plums, carrots, green beans, and celery. Help!!! -Mira. (Sounds like Mee-ruh), Eau Claire, WI  Q3 - 11:32 I can NOT shake this funk I am feeling! I haven’t felt like myself in months. I am tired all the time, even though I am getting the same amount of sleep I’ve always got. I have been following your 80/20 principle and eating clean 80% of the time, and have even been keeping an eye on my gluten and dairy. I had my doctor run a panel and he said that everything looked completely normal. What could be wrong?  -Angel in Harrisonburg  Q4 - 14:14 I am trying so hard to get more sleep because everyone tells me how important it is when I am trying to lose weight, but I just can’t seem to make myself go to bed early! I try to get in bed around 9 and usually end up staring at my ceiling or my phone until atleast 11pm or almost midnight. Sleeping in is not an option for me, so I need to figure out how I can make myself go to bed earlier and sleep through the night. * Brenna in Massachusetts  Q5 - 16:28 I read online that being outside and getting sunlight will help with my gut health which I think is CRAZY! I have no idea how the two are connected, but I am wondering how I can implement this, how much time do I need to spend outside to enjoy the benefits of sunlight and fresh air, and do you have any tips to squeeze this into my day? * Michelle in Hampton Q6 - 19:11 I’ve recently been diagnosed with Adrenal Fatigue, and I am trying to figure out how to get a handle on it the natural way. What are some foods that I should be focusing on eating, and what are the foods that I should be avoiding? Are there any natural supplements and vitamins that you recommend I take? * Holly in Atlanta  Q7 - 29:30 I am working hard to regulate my blood sugar naturally and am focusing on foods with a low glycemic index. What are some of the best things that I should be eating? Also, do you think buying organic makes a big difference? * Katherine in SC Q8 - 37:28 I’ve recently started making smoothies in the morning and try to squeeze as much green stuff in there as I can! A friend recommended buying frozen organic spinach, because it’s cheaper than fresh spinach AND it makes the smoothies cold and icy which I love. I am just curious if frozen spinach has all the same properties as fresh spinach? Is there any difference? * Rachel in Columbia Q9 - 41:06   I’ve always heard that weight loss is 90% what you eat, and that exercise isn’t as important, but I want to start moving and trying to kick my weight loss up a notch. I work a full time job and have two kids, so I don’t have a ton of time, but I am committed to carving out atleast 30 minutes a couple times a week. What is the best exercise I can do to maximize this small amount of time? -Kate in New York   --------------------------------------- To learn more about the principles of intermittent fasting, purchase Chantel's book, Waist Away: The Chantel Ray Way NOW by visiting http://amzn.to/2CVmTgs YouTube Channel Link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCteFjiVaY6n0SOAixcyZbWA Like us on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/TheChantelRayWay     Things we love: https://chantelrayway.com/things-i-love-2/  Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheChantelRayWay   ***As always, this podcast is not designed to diagnose, treat, prevent or cure any condition and is for information purposes only.
