Have you been put on an elimination diet? Are you unable to reintroduce foods (no matter how long you’ve been on your diet) without your symptoms flaring up? Do you feel your symptoms flare up even when you’re being strict with your diet? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, tune in!
Are you taking supplements, and you feel like they’re not working? Have you jumped from one supplement to another, wondering if you’ll start to feel better if you just get the right brand or the right herb that you haven’t tried yet? Have you been recommended by your doctor to take supplements (such as calcium, B12, iron, or Vitamin D due to being low)? Yet your numbers are barely budging and you don’t feel any different? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, today’s episode is for YOU!
We just concluded a series of episodes on ways the gut is connected to other parts of the body: the Gut-Skin, Gut-Breath, and Gut-Sinus connections. In honor of the Gut-Sinus connection, I wanted to bring in an EXPERT in the orofacial complex: Madison Scott, RDH, Myofunctional Therapist! Myofunctional therapy is a treatment that examines how the tongue and oral muscles move and function, utilizing exercises to improve muscle tone and therapies to change habits.
Today, we begin part one of our Gut Connection series! We’ll explore three different gut connections over the next weeks: skin, breath, and sinus. Our gut and skin are deeply intertwined. To heal the skin, the gut needs to be healthy. If you’re healing your gut, you may have already noticed skin improvements! From hormones to toxins, we’ll dive into what connects and influences both organs in this episode AND how you can begin healing your skin from the inside out.
Last week’s episode, I discussed the anatomy behind brain toxicity and ways to reduce toxins. One of the methods to reduce brain toxicity needed its own episode: MEDITATION! Meditation is the ultimate freebie for reducing brain toxicity! No tools are required and it can be done almost anywhere or anytime.
Brain toxicity: What does it look like? Symptoms of brain toxicity: Fatigue, Moodiness, Memory problems, Difficulty focusing (ADD/ADHD), Speech/language problems (Autism), Mood disorders (OCD, depression, etc.), Stiff, uncoordinated muscles (Demyelination. More severely: Multiple sclerosis, ALS, or other diseases), Neurodegenerative diseases (such as Dementia/Alzheimers)
Do you experience any of those symptoms? Let’s go over the physiology: how we intake toxins, how we absorb them, and ways that our bodies struggle to excrete them.
Does sleep elude you? Often, we are told if we improve sleep hygiene or reduce stress, our sleep will improve. This episode, I want to let you in on a secret: It’s not your lack of willpower getting in the way of better sleep. It’s your GUT!
Why do our clients get such good results? What do we do differently?
Lately, I’ve been getting these questions a LOT. After pondering the answers, I’m here today to share them with you! Some key things? We don’t use insurance, we invest TIME with our clients, and we get creative! I’ll go in depth about things we do (or don’t do) and WHY.
This episode, let’s talk about the mental component of health!
By no means is every sickness coming from the mind, but also, the mind – including subconscious processes and emotions – cannot be extricated from ANY experience of the body, be it pain or pleasure, sickness or health, success or failure. I encourage you to always seek a happier, healthier mindset even as you seek a happier, and healthier, body.
OMG! Yes, I need this!
