Energized with Dr. Mariza

There comes a time in every woman's life where we must reevaluate and ask ourselves what we need to change, what we need support with, and what is not working to be better and step into the versions of ourselves we want to be. Now that we have settled into the new year, how are you feeling? Are you ready to leap into the goals you have for 2022 and beyond?

Discovering Your Emotional Grit With Dr. Neeta Bhushan

Dr. Neeta Bhushan is a former cosmetic dentist turned best-selling author, international educator, emotional health advocate & serial entrepreneur. Sparked by her own life experiences overcoming multiple extreme adversities, including being orphaned at a young age, surviving an abusive marriage of domestic violence, and overcoming extensive loss, her breakthrough research in Emotional Grit has been endorsed & utilized by renowned leaders, corporations, students and organizations around the world.

Stepping Into Bravery

Stepping into the bravery necessary to restart our lives, reignite our passions, and reemerge as who we are meant to be can feel a little scary. Dr. Neeta knows firsthand that the only way to embrace this bravery is by giving yourself permission to be vulnerable, ask for help, and get clear on your goals.

When you are able to focus on how to create your own best well-being, you can say yes to the brave steps necessary to give your soul what it wants out of life.

Creating Goals Without Burnout

Creating the success and beautiful life that you want doesn't mean you have to become burned out in the process. By creating your own rituals that light you up, allowing space for the new seasons of your life, and making a commitment to yourself, you can take the necessary steps to make your dreams happen.

By using Dr. Neeta’s GRIT acronym, you can apply these transformative principles to every area of your life and work to improve your emotional intelligence so that you can show up when life doesn't go your way.

What does it mean to be brave to you? Are you ready to take the leap? Share your thoughts with me in the comments section of the episode page.

If you have ever seen mold growing inside your home, most of the time, there is a larger problem that you need to look into immediately. Surface mold is just the tip of the iceberg and can wreak havoc on any system in the body, which is why it is so important to identify these mycotoxins as soon as possible to save your health and your home.

All Things Mold With Bridgit Danner

Bridgit Danner is a licensed acupuncturist, certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, and the founder of HormoneDetoxShop.com. After losing everything to toxic mold herself, Bridgit now educates about toxins and how to detoxify your body and home through a functional healthcare approach. She is my go-to expert when it comes to all things mold and is here today to share how your symptoms could be related to mycotoxin exposure you might not even know about.

Could Mold Be Causing Your Hormone Symptoms?

Bridgit refers to toxic mold like a roommate that you don't want to have. Toxic mold will continue to grow and emit mycotoxins until it is dealt with for good. While you can't always see it, toxic mold can suppress your immune system, damage your cells, cause cancer and birth defects, impair mitochondrial function and the nervous system, and so much more. 

The only way to recover from toxic mold exposure, whether it was recent or long in the past, is to detoxify. If you have been trying everything but still can't shake your symptoms, mold could be to blame.

Daily Detoxification is Key

Cleansing your home and your system of mycotoxins can take a while. This is why Bridgit recommends going step by step and focusing on the basics in order to detoxify your system. Even if you have not been exposed to toxic mold, the toxins we are all exposed to the daily call for consistent detoxifying habits to help you age well and relieve your symptoms. 

Daily detoxification is the key to getting past some of your biggest symptoms. While diagnosing a mold-related illness is critical, there is so much that we can do on a daily basis to detoxify our bodies and feel safe in our homes.

Hormones and gut health aren't often discussed in the same sentence, but the truth is that your hormone issues could very well stem from an imbalance in your gut microbiome. Digestive enzymes can not only help heal your symptoms; they can implement the fundamentals of gut health that we all need to function properly.

Why You Should Love Digestive Enzymes as Much as They Love You

Steven Wright knows about the struggles of gut health first hand. After spending almost half a million dollars overcoming his own health challenges, he decided to take matters into his own hands and graduated from the Kalish Functional Medicine Institute. Since then, he has founded healthygut.com, a service dedicated to helping people alleviate their symptoms through the transformative power of digestive enzymes.

The Importance of Loving Your Microbiome

What you eat every day is shaping your microbiome without you even realizing it. Your microbiome can only flourish if it is provided the necessary tools for it to grow. Digestive enzymes work within a capsule to ensure that you don't have to rely on the food you ate that day in order to uplevel your digestive functioning. 

If you are able to take full advantage of what you are consuming, your cells will have a better ability to break down the foods you are eating and alleviate the symptoms that are causing your challenges.

The Fundamentals Are What Matters

If you are struggling with not being able to eat what you want or live life the way that makes you comfortable due to your symptoms, your microbiome could be the catalyst. By understanding the daily support that your gut needs in order to function optimally, you can get back to the fundamentals of gut health. 

Your enzymes control basically everything that is happening in your body, so why not support them in the best way possible in order to improve your overall daily health? If you are struggling with symptoms that you just can't get to the bottom of, digestive enzymes could be your path to easing your discomfort.

Are you ready to give your microbiome some love through digestive enzymes? Share your thoughts with me in the comments section of the episode page.

Breathwork has been a powerful tool that has helped me reset my stress response patterns and create a greater sense of peace and transformation. Feeling stressed is the new normal for many women, but it doesn't have to be that way. If you can learn how to control your breath, you can rewire your brain and reset your stress response system using something you do every single day.

Creating Breakthrough Experiences with Amanda Laine

Amanda Laine is the co-founder of Othership, the leading digital breathwork content creator. Othership was born out of the desire to help people do breathwork online or in-person to experience the transformative power of breathwork. Amanda combines breathwork, hypnosis, movement, and sound in innovative ways, which has led to thoughts of breakthrough experiences. She is passionate about helping others build resilience and transform their lives through the Othership app.

Don’t Take Your Breath for Granted

One of the reasons many of us have become so bad at responding to stress is because of all of the comforts our lives contain, compared to the hunters and gatherers that came before us. Because we don't need to be running for food or being worried about getting eaten by a bear, our brain has been rewired to stress out about other things instead.

Utilizing breathwork is one of the easiest ways to help calm your central nervous system in times of stress. Most of us take our breath for granted, but it is the key to resetting our body's stress response and bringing ourselves back to equilibrium.

The Best Way to Release Your Stress

Even if you have tried breathwork in the past, you have probably never tried it the Othership way. In as little as 4 minutes, Othership can help you release in the comfort of your own home, which Amanda has found to lead to more intense and more fulfilling breathwork sessions. 

Breathwork can help you rewire your state of consciousness, heal trauma, release stuck energy patterns and those thoughts that aren't serving you. The direct evidence of how breathwork, and stressors like sauna and cold-plunge therapy, can help you shift out of parasympathetic stress is undeniable.

I don't know about you, but my body definitely needs a reset after the holidays. While doing a 14-day detox is great, detoxing your body on a daily basis consistently is the key to moving the needle when it comes to your health. While it may seem overwhelming at times, building habits to detox your body every single day isn't as difficult as you might think.

Getting to the Bottom of Your Symptoms With Dr. Wendie Trubow

Wendie Trubow, M.D., MBA, is a functional medicine gynecologist. After a trip to Paris led to a host of medical problems due to the lead she was exposed to during the Notre Dame fire, she realized how many toxic chemicals women are exposed to daily. She is passionate about helping women optimize their health and their lives through functional medicine and detoxing the body to live their best lives.

Toxins Are Everywhere

Everything from the water we drink to the furniture we are sleeping on, and the cars we are driving, has the possibility of containing toxins. Toxins are so pervasive in our modern lives, but very few of us stop to think about the havoc that these toxins could be causing when it comes to our health. 

If you have done the work to optimize your water intake, food sources, alcohol, sugar, stress, and sleep and still aren't seeing the results you are hoping for, toxins in your body could be to blame.

How to Simply and Easily Detox Daily

Some toxins in your body could have been there for years, while some may be present in your life right now. This is why it is important to get to the bottom of your toxic exposure so that you can make the changes you need to get your health back on track. 

While everybody is different when it comes to their toxic exposure, there are many things you can do to detox your body right now. You don't necessarily have to do a massive overall of everything you come into contact with on a daily basis. But, making small changes can help you level up your health and alleviate the symptoms that ail you.

Are you ready to take action and detox your body daily? Share which of Dr. Wendie’s tips you are going to implement first with me in the comments section of the episode page.

Essentially You Episode #169: Everyday Detox: Strategies for Reducing Daily Environmental Toxic Exposure with Lara Adler

We often forget that our skin is our largest organ in the body and plays a pivotal role in our hormones, longevity, immune system, and overall health. Everything you put onto your skin is absorbed into your body, including your shampoo, lotion, makeup, and household cleaners. When we use personal care products that are filled with chemicals, it can lead to a myriad of health problems and actually age us faster.

Natural Skincare Solutions With Brian Vaszily

Brian Vaszily is a prominent natural health leader, researcher, and advocate with over 20 years of experience. He is the founder of The Art of Anti-Aging and Purity Woods, a premier-quality USDA Certified Organic skincare product line. He is on a mission to help those in their 30’s, 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, and beyond with the most effective evidence-based natural solutions to look and feel their best, avoid and overcome disease, and live longer.

The Problem with Toxins

Feeding your skin is just like feeding your body. Unfortunately, the personal care industry is one of the most unregulated industries in this country, with only 11 chemicals being banned for use in personal care products. Compared to the over 1300 chemicals that have been banned in the EU and other countries, this is a huge red flag.

While consuming these toxic products through your skin may not have an immediate effect on your health, using these products for days, weeks, and years can be detrimental. This is why we have to put as much time and care into selecting products for our skin as we do when feeding ourselves.

Achieving Younger-Looking Skin Naturally

Let's be honest; we all want to look younger. Our skin is a big indicator of youth, which is why we can't separate it from the rest of our health. The goal is to put something on our skin that will keep us looking, and feeling great, without damaging our skin biome and immune system.

Aging is a wonderful thing. But the key to aging gracefully is to use products that nourish us rather than consuming chemicals that can have some seriously negative long-term effects on our health. By educating yourself on the best ingredients for your skin, you can look and feel younger for longer.

Are you ready to achieve younger-looking skin by removing the toxic chemicals from your personal care routine? Share your thoughts on what Brian shared with us today with me in the comments section of the episode page.
