Show Notes: What is Terrain Medicine? Terrain medicine is the practice of aligning our bio terrain with our eco terrain resulting in a healthy and beautiful environment for both the body and the world We all have ‘bio-terrain' - our organ systems, DNA, epigenetics, our microbiome We are surrounded by our ‘eco-terrain' - water, soil, sun, wind, food    Practicing Gratitude and Awe Gratitude practice has been shown to positively influence our physiology Examples of benefits: Reduced anxiety, lower blood pressure, minimized depression, lower cortisol levels, improved sleep and more Getting back outside in nature Try earthing/grounding - time outdoors is essential  Examples of outdoor benefits: Lower cortisol levels, higher anti-cancer proteins, increased executive function, creativity, happiness and more Dirt is Not Dirty We have been raised in a world that teaches us that perfect hygiene is to remove bacterias and stay far away from getting “dirty” - that being sterile is important A study in Europe showed that in home or schools that use more bleach the exposed children to those environments were more likely to have chronic respiratory infections We were intended to come in contact with dirt and to get dirty Germ diversity is essential for a healthy and happy life   Steps You Can Take Right Now  The simplest thing is to start by going outside Take your lunch outside on a picnic blanket, sit on a rock, hug a tree Take your computer outside and get some sun and breathe fresh air while you work Home cleaning  Replace chemical cleaning products with natural cleaners - many of these you can make with just a few simple ingredients Look for easy swaps and be aware of what you are ingesting (diet) and the environmental factors around you (products)   Timestamps: Episode Intro … 00:00:30Dr. Shetreat's Story … 00:01:30What is Terrain Medicine? … 00:05:34Practicing Gratitude and Awe … 00:13:00Dirt is Not Dirty … 00:20:51Steps You Can Take Right Now … 00:34:10Episode Wrap-Up … 00:45:10   Connect with us: Instagram: Better Biome Facebook: Better Biome  Website: Better Biome

Catherine is here today with Dr. Maya Shetreat. Dr Maya Shetreat is a neurologist, herbalist, urban farmer, and author of The Dirt Cure where she reveals the shocking contents of children's food, how it's seriously harming their bodies and brains, and what you can do about it. Dr Maya's current work started when her 7-year-old son had a seizure, at the time of her son's crisis, she knew that focusing on his physical body wasn't the answer. It was something that seemed far more intangible. It was his energy body that needed help. It was his spirit. It was his soul. Dr Maya realized that this was exactly what had been missing all along in her training and travelled all over the world and learned from plants, teachers, elders, and indigenous communities from Ecuador and Mexico to Australia and Africa. And ... while she still (and probably forever will) love to geek out over the brain and mitochondria and science, her specialty is showing sensitive, empathic people how to heal, how to care for themselves and how to recognize and hone their gifts. She has been featured in the New York Times, The Telegraph, NPR, Sky News, The Dr. Oz Show and is the founder of the Terrain Institute, where she teaches Terrain Medicine™, earth-based programs for transformational healing.

In today's episode, we're talking all about a baby's brain: when it develops, how it develops, and how preconception health influences a baby's neurological development.  Our guest is Dr. Maya Shetreat, a neurologist, herbalist, urban farmer, and author of The Dirt Cure. She has been featured in the New York Times, The Telegraph, NPR, Sky News, The Dr. Oz Show and more. Dr. Maya is the founder of the Terrain Institute, where she teaches Terrain Medicine™, earth-based programs for transformational healing. She works and studies with indigenous communities and healers from around the world, and is a lifelong student of ethnobotany, plant healing, and the sacred.

On Part 2 of this episode, we continue the discussion with our special guest,  Dr. Maya Shetreat, M.D., a thought leader in Medicine and a pioneer who has helped redefine how we think about health.  After her conventional training as a Pediatric Neurologist she continued to grow intellectually and philosophically and is now also an herbalist and urban farmer.  She is the author of the groundbreaking book, The Dirt Cure: Growing Healthy Kids with Food Straight from the Soil, which has been translated into multiple languages. Her work has been highlighted in The NY Times, The Telegraph, the Dr. Oz Show, and a multitude of other media forums.   She is the Founder of the Terrain Institute - which fosters the field of Terrain Medicine: earth-based programs for transitional healing.  Dr. Maya picks up on her discussion of the microbiome, including details of the mitochondria and the concept of quorum sensing. She highlights that we are many organisms functioning as one unit and the relationships we have with the world around us. This has been her motivation for starting the Terrain Institute, to promote our alignment internally and externally - the Ecoterrain -  to attain health.   Dr. Maya and Dr. Fethke enter into a discussion of Epigenetics - the idea that we have a genetic code and depending on the particular interactions with our environment can turn on or off disease-causing genes. Dr. Maya explains the concept of Resiliency and Hormesis in which a little regular stress actually makes us stronger. Getting a little messy with a diversity of foods and exposures creates a healthy internal terrain. If we make the environment around us too clean, then we may be handicapping our systems. This thesis underlies the title of her book - The Dirt Cure.   Together they touch upon the implications of this thesis for the current Covid-19 pandemic, here and abroad,  and the the impact of healthcare disparities as a major contributor to negative epigenetic effects - racism-induced lack of Resiliency - in our own country.  Dr. Maya finishes our episode with a retrospective look at the professional and intellectual hurdles she overcame in creating her approach to health. She is now more confident than ever as her ideas are increasingly gaining validity as a part of mainstream research and scientific thought. She emphasizes that to be healthy we must establish a good relationship with the environment around us.  References:  1. The Terrain Institute - shtreat.mn.co, 2.  Drmaya.com 3.

On this episode, our special guest is Dr. Maya Shetreat, M.D., a thought leader in Medicine and a pioneer who has helped redefine how we think about health.  After her conventional training as a Pediatric Neurologist, she  continued to grow intellectually and philosophically and is now also an herbalist and urban farmer.  She is the author of the groundbreaking book, The Dirt Cure: Growing Healthy Kids with Food Straight from the Soil, which has been translated into multiple languages. Her work has been highlighted in The New York Times, The Telegraph, the Dr. Oz Show, and a multitude of other media forums.   She is the Founder of the Terrain Institute - which fosters the field of Terrain Medicine: earth-based programs for transitional healing.  Dr. Maya begins Part 1 of this episode by opening up about how her professional and personal life became intertwined early in her career. Her journey was triggered by one of her children's health issues that took her from the mainstream of Medicine into a direction that questioned certain traditional doctrines and continues to challenge conventional wisdom. She faced limitations in treating her son, even from the best experts in the field , who fell back on their predictive coding - another form of implicit bias in healthcare - instead of keeping an open mind.  Feeling abandoned by standard approaches, and caught between her responsibilities to her son and her medical training, Dr. Maya's investigations led her to a whole new world that emphasizes the profound impact of nutrition on our health.  Soon enough she found herself forging a novel path that led her to become an expert in the microbiome and gut-brain connection of our bodies. She remains a passionate advocate for all of us to attain the mutually beneficial interaction with our planet and the other life forms we cohabitate with.   In easy to understand terms, Dr. Maya takes us through the details of how we define the microbiome and how the gut-brain connection actually works. She describes the immune system under stress as constantly in alarm mode.  She has added to an extensive literature that explains how this constant stress mode, the cell danger response, when unable to turn off, leads to other medical conditions including mood disorders, autism, seizures and ADHD.   Dr. Maya finishes Part 1 of this episode with us by warning that, more than ever before, our latest food processing mechanisms may be inciting our immune systems to remain constantly on alert - unable to take a break -  thereby adversely affecting our health.  She emphasizes that this over-purification of our food and environment is particularly harmful to our growing children.    Dr. Fethke finishes this episode by summarizing Dr. Maya's theme that How we start off life as infants and children has lifelong implications. He asks us to consider wether this concept should be part of Healthcare Reform.  References: 1. The Terrain Institute - shtreat.mn.co,   2.  Drmaya.com   3.

If you struggle with your child's health or your own, this is the episode that you need. We are so excited to have her with us today. This episode is also great for you if you have a child who keeps getting sick all the time, or if you succumb to infections all the time. Is your poor sleep also contributing to low immune function? What does the health of your microbiome have to do with your sleep? This is a show that every parent should listen to! This episode shatters the horrendous aspect of gaslighting a mother for having instincts about her child. Its time to listen to your inner voice and be the best champion for you and your child.   In this episode, we dive into:  “Hygiene Hypothesis, Dirt Cure, Microbiome and Sleep" Dr Maya's story of being ignored by the medical fraternity in spite of being a doctor herself and how that led to her authoring the brilliant book, The Dirt Cure What is the hygiene hypothesis, the microbiome and the dirt cure? If there is a history of excessive antibiotic usage and antacid usage, the microbiome has less diversity and less bacteria. This does put immunity at some risk. Why are we seeing so much of this? What is happening within the microbiome of someone who is hyper clean versus someone who has a robust microbiome? What are some of the sleep challenges that you are witnessing today? Is this linked to the microbiome? Dr Maya's work is the intersection between cutting edge science as a board certified Paediatric Neurologist and a fascination for Earth medicine and everything magical and symbolic. How does she bring in both these approaches into looking at someone with microbiome dysbiosis, sleep challenges and neurological impact. How can someone heal from the inside out with the dirt cure? What is her personal practice of earth medicine?  For more on Dr Maya, you can follow her: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drmayashetreat Website: https://drmaya.com Instagram: @drmayashetreat -For more on Deepa, The Sleep Whisperer, be sure to follow her on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/mysleepwhisperer/  and https://www.instagram.com/phytothrive_yogini/ and on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/sleepwhisperer and you can also mail Deepa at deepa@phytothrive.com or find her at www.phytothrive.com and www.sleepwhisperer.pro

In today's world, germs are the enemy. We are constantly washing our hands, wiping down surfaces, and slathering on the hand sanitizer. But what does this over-sanitization mean for our skin and overall health? Maya Shetreat, MD is a neurologist, herbalist, urban farmer, and author of The Dirt Cure: Healthy Food, Healthy Gut, Happy Child (Simon and Schuster, 2016), which has been translated into ten languages. She has been featured in the New York Times, The Telegraph, NPR, Sky News, The Dr. Oz Show, and more.

She works and studies with indigenous communities and healers in Ecuador, and is a lifelong student of ethnobotany, plant healing, and the sacred. Has spending more time in nature improved your overall health? Let me know in the comments! In this episode: The problem with over-sanitization How antibiotics affect the gut Connection between the immune system and the skin Does over-sanitization as children affect us as adults? Quotes: “Everything's connected in the body. And this is a thing I think that unfortunately is forgotten about by all doctors and especially by dermatologists. Dermatologists are always thinking topical. Like, what will I do topically rather than thinking that, you know, how we heal skin is from the inside out.” [5:51] “The immune system is a remote system. So when something's activated in one place, like the gut, it can totally cause symptoms in another place like the skin.” [8:56] “What you need for a healthy immune system, particularly in infancy and childhood but throughout life at any point in life, is you need small stressors. And that's a concept called hormesis, which is the idea that something that might be toxic in a large amount, in a very tiny amount it actually optimizes health.” [13:20] Links: Find Dr. Maya Online Download Dr. Maya's FREE Earth Medicine Transformation Bundle HERE Follow Dr. Maya on Facebook | Instagram

Today’s guest is the remarkable Dr. Maya Shetreat, MD. When I first met Maya I thought she could be my best friend. I was so taken with the way she shows up in the world and her rebellious side of doing things in her life that are true to her, even if others don’t approve or understand. Maya is a western trained medical doctor and she is a woman that lives her life listening to the sounds of the universe and touching the earth and being connected to it. During our conversation she shares with me various initiation points (as she calls them) in her life that have led to radical shifts such as a health crisis with her son and her divorce. She talks about the connection she feels with the invisible world and how that has guided her during these hardest moments of her life. Maya also talks about why she thinks in recent times many have lost this connection to the spiritual world and whether or not we’ll find it again.   “The unseen world is a very real entity. It always has been. It’s what we might think of as magic. It’s woven into the history of humans through ritual and ceremony. Through our relationship with plants, animals, wind, and water.” ~ Maya Shetreat, MD   Maya believes in heart intelligence and the idea that we can alchemize our greatest losses and darkest moments into wisdom, gifts and even our superpowers. I especially loved speaking to her about how she has used this wisdom to stay connected to her integrity and making hard choices, when it could have been easier to stay the course and tow the line. I can’t wait for you to listen to this conversation and to be inspired. I hope that it will spark an idea or maybe encourage you to be a little bit more rebellious in your own life! I’d love to hear what you think of this conversation. Be sure to comment below or connect with me on Instagram to tell me all about it.

My guest this week is Dr. Maya Shetreat, a neurologist, herbalist, urban farmer, and author of ‘The Dirt Cure: Healthy Food, Healthy Gut, Happy Child' (Simon and Schuster, 2016), which has been translated into ten languages. She has been featured in the New York Times, The Telegraph, NPR, Sky News, The Dr. Oz Show and more. Dr. Maya is the founder of the Terrain Institute, where she teaches Terrain Medicine™, earth-based programs for transformational healing. She works and studies with indigenous communities and healers in Ecuador, and is a lifelong student of ethnobotany, plant healing, and the sacred. In this episode, Dr. Maya and I discuss the importance of children spending time in nature and how that exposes them to a diversity of essential germs needed in order to build a stronger immune system and a healthier gut and brain. All children can greatly benefit from time outdoors including those with simple to severe learning and behavioral disorders such as autism, dyslexia, ADHD, and nonverbal or degenerative issues. Learn more about Dr. Maya Shetreat here.   Why Getting Dirty Is Important Immune systems are ‘social' and want to meet compounds, foods, and organisms and have contact with them This allows the immune system to go into alert mode when something problematic comes along A restricted immune system can be over-reactive. Variety is the spice of health Gut health is the foundation for immune health and immune health is the foundation for brain health   Designed For Exposure To Dirt We are evolutionarily designed for our immune system to be exposed to many different germs Ex: babies learn how to crawl on their hands and knees and stick their hands and whatever they can grab in their mouth. We were designed to be exposed to dirt. Children who grow up in homes where bleach is routinely used have a higher risk of chronic bronchitis and seasonal respiratory infections Being exposed to a variety  of germs helps to keep anyone organism from growing out of control and causing a problem   What is Hormesis and Why It Is Important Hormesis: where something would normally be toxic in large amounts can be beneficial in tiny amounts Ex: fasting - if you do it for a month you will have negative effects, if you fast for 12-24 hours it can greatly benefit you Small challenges like this, though slightly uncomfortable, cause our mitochondria to step up and function more optimally Getting into dirt, into soil, exposes us to billions of compounds and organisms that inspire every cell in our body to function effectively Soil is nature's free probiotic   Benefits of Time in Nature “Shinrin-yoku” (forest-bathing) - Asian cultures encourage this time out in nature to immerse oneself in the beauty of the forest regularly Studies show that this results in better sleep, focus, organization, executive function, higher accomplishments at work and school, and feeling happier As well as, increased production in anti-cancer proteins   Get Your Kids Outside Let your children build a relationship with nature Playing outside on the grass, gardening, having a picnic If your child is suffering from a simple to severe developmental issue (ADHD, dyslexia, behavioral issues, non-verbal, degenerative issues, birth trauma)  they can benefit from being outdoors Every single child can benefit and was designed for their nervous systems to be stimulated by the outdoors   What Our Kids Illnesses & Challenges Can Teach Us Parents have a lot of pressure to FIX their child's issues Dr. Maya says, “Your child is actually your teacher” She encourages parents to stop trying to fix their children and instead listen to their symptoms as their way of showing you how to take care of them better 3 things to do for your children: Love them, advocate for them and offer them resources   Where to learn more about Dr. Maya Shetreat...

Wouldn't it be great to know the earth better, and understand its earth wisdom for us? Years ago we honored the earth as our teacher and its consciousness and knowledge. We knew ourselves and our connection to earth more fully, and now is a time where we are being called up to remember it.

This week’s guest is - simply put - awesome. We have such a wonderful chat about her book: The Dirt Cure, as well as a general exploration into the power of connectedness with our earth, neurology advances, healing and more. Dr Maya Shetreat is a neurologist, herbalist, urban farmer, and author of The Dirt Cure: Healthy Food, Healthy Gut, Happy Child, which has been translated into ten languages. She has been featured in the New York Times, The Telegraph, NPR, Sky News, The Dr. Oz Show and more. Dr. Maya is the founder of the Terrain Institute, where she teaches Terrain Medicine™, earth-based programs for transformational healing. She works and studies with indigenous communities and healers in Ecuador, and is a lifelong student of ethnobotany, plant healing, and the sacred. Dr. Maya’s philosophy is that the health of our inner terrain—our bodies– is a reflection of the health of our outer terrain, the natural world around us. Gut, immune and nervous system—and the many microbes therein—are a direct reflection of the food we eat and where that food comes from, from the soil it’s grown in to the water it swims in to the synthetic chemicals that it’s bathed in. Fresh food, microbes (that’s right, germs) and elements of nature—soil, sunshine, water, and fresh air—make children resilient and prevent or reverse their illness.
