Have you ever wondered how birth control might be silently impacting your body beyond its intended purpose? 

In this episode, Sydona shares crucial information about the complexities of stopping birth control and restoring natural hormone balance. She outlines several concerning effects of hormonal contraceptives, including their impact on vitamin depletion, particularly vitamins A, C, and E, and their potential role in autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and MS. The discussion explores how birth control can affect everything from partner selection due to altered pheromone perception to mental health challenges like anxiety and depression. Sydona emphasizes the importance of a gradual, supported approach when stopping birth control, recommending specific nutritional support starting three months before discontinuation. 

She advocates for gentler exercise routines, suggesting a shift from high-intensity workouts to calming activities like morning or sunset walks, and reducing workout frequency from five to two-three days weekly. The episode provides practical guidance for menstrual cycle recovery, highlighting the significance of listening to your body's signals rather than rushing the process. Particularly noteworthy is her emphasis on gut health and its connection to hormonal wellbeing, explaining how birth control can trigger inflammation that may lead to various health issues. 

Rather than viewing the transition off birth control as merely a medical process, Sydona encourages women to see it as an opportunity to reconnect with their natural rhythms and understand their bodies on a deeper level, leaving listeners with a powerful realization: sometimes the path to optimal health requires us to trust our body's innate wisdom rather than relying solely on synthetic solutions.

Can somatic healing and breathwork techniques unlock the emotions we've buried in our psyche? 

In this conversation about overcoming anxiety with meditation, Jon Orsini shares his transformative journey from experiencing debilitating panic attacks at age 18 to discovering mindfulness and breathwork for mental health. His personal story demonstrates the remarkable benefits of somatic breathwork when a seemingly simple breathing exercise unexpectedly revealed years of suppressed anger from his high school days – emotions he had unconsciously buried beneath the surface.

The discussion sheds light on how unresolved trauma and unconscious tensions can manifest as physical and mental dis-ease, and how specific stress management through breathwork can help bring these hidden patterns to light. Jon's evolution from actor to practitioner showcases the profound impact of combining mindfulness for anxiety relief with somatic healing practices. 

His wisdom reminds us that "You can't want healing for someone more than they want it for themselves" – but when someone is ready to embrace change, could these powerful techniques be the gateway to lasting transformation?

Have you ever considered that the root of your hair loss or hormonal imbalances might lie within your gut? 

In this Holistically Healthy podcast episode, host Sydona Tregoning talks about healing autoimmune conditions by exploring the intricate connections between gut health, emotional well-being, and bodily symptoms. Autoimmune conditions, hair loss, and weak fingernails are not isolated issues but manifestations of underlying digestive issues and emotional stress. The episode emphasizes the critical role of the gut-brain connection, highlighting that it's not just about what you eat, but what your body assimilates. Stress and poor gut health create a vicious cycle where weakened hair follicles and fragile nails worsen, amplifying the problem of stress management and highlighting the importance of understanding the causes of hair loss.

The discussion highlights how repressed emotions and societal pressures impact physical health, particularly through an emotional connection to health. Many autoimmune conditions have emotional roots linked to people-pleasing patterns or environments that stifle emotions. The episode advocates for a holistic healing approach, emphasizing the importance of addressing gluten intolerance within the context of gluten and autoimmune diseases, alongside dealing with chronic stress and digestion issues. It challenges listeners to explore stressors by asking "why," aiming to dismantle societal perceptions that elevate anxiety. 

Could unlocking the secrets of your gut and inner self be the key to restoring balance and vitality in your life?

Have you ever wondered if your digestive symptoms are a sign of something deeper? 

In today’s episode, Sydona talks about the root causes of common digestive issues like constipation, diarrhea, and bloating, revealing how stress, poor hydration, and gut imbalances like SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) could be behind your discomfort. Your Host, Sydona Tregoning, explains how stress can trigger a fight-or-flight response, disrupting digestion and leading to symptoms like constipation. On the other hand, diarrhea may be a result of food intolerances, bacterial overgrowth, or poor fiber intake, causing your body to expel food before water can be absorbed. 

Bloating, often misinterpreted as simple fullness, could be due to low stomach acid or harmful bacteria fermenting food in the gut, leading to gas and discomfort. The episode also highlights the importance of proper bile production for fat digestion, as oily substances in the stool can signal malabsorption issues. 

To combat these problems, the host suggests practical solutions like proper hydration, increasing fiber intake, and managing stress. The elimination diet, covered in the host's masterclass, offers a way to identify food sensitivities and take control of your symptoms. 

Are your digestive issues trying to tell you something? It's time to listen—because true healing starts from the inside out.

Have you ever wondered how your gut health might be influencing your mood, energy levels, and overall well-being? 

In this special episode of "Holistically Healthy," the tables are turned on our host, Sydona, as SHE is interviewed by (prior guest) Jessica West of Empower from Within. Sydona and Jessica recently did a “Guest Swap”. Together they explore a holistic approach to addressing health issues. The conversation begins with Sydona sharing her personal journey that includes sexual abuse, bullying, and anxiety. She emphasizes the need for identifying root causes of health problems, having consulted a registered dietitian and undergoing stool tests, which she found to be inadequate in comprehensively diagnosing her issues. 

And of course, since this is the Holistically Healthy Podcast, the discussion turns to nutrition, gut health, and comprehensive stool tests in uncovering underlying health problems. Sydona’s personal experience with gluten sensitivity and other gut imbalances, discovered through detailed testing, led her to make substantial dietary changes.

The conversation also explores the gut-brain axis, discussing how stress and emotions impact gut health and vice versa. Sydona and Jessica highlight how unaddressed trauma can influence everything from energy levels to immune and digestive health. They discuss how a calm nervous system is essential for proper digestion and how gut health can affect neurotransmitter production, including serotonin and dopamine.

In a world where we often overlook the importance of our gut health, this episode serves as a powerful reminder: nurturing our digestive system might just be the key to unlocking a healthier, happier version of ourselves.
