The sun has always been around- so why are skin cancer cases rapidly rising despite our obsessively using sunscreen and spending the majority of time indoors? Something doesn’t add up and I break down some different aspects of sunlight and how our body uses it to hopefully show you that the sun may be powerful, yes, but when we live in alignment with it, it can be a very beneficial healing tool.

Hope you guys enjoyed this episode! If you have any questions, drop them in the comments below!

If you wanna work with me, send me a DM over on insta, @livingwellwithliza and we can set up a discovery call to decide if we’d be a good fit!

Hey hey everybody!

This is the LAST pillar from my 10 Pillars of Wellness series and it is a doozy!

Did you know your home could be filled with invisible toxins — in the air you breathe, the water you drink, and even the clothes on your back?

In this video, I break down the most common environmental toxins lurking in every part of your home, including:

1:40-4:06🍳 KITCHEN — Non-stick coatings, plastic utensils and cutting boards shedding microplastics in your food, and how heating up plastic makes it worse 

4:06-7:11🌬️ AIR — VOCs, particulate matter and importance of air filters 

7:11-7:58💧 WATER — Lead, chlorine, microplastics & PFAS ("forever chemicals") in tap water, the importance of filters not only for drinking water but showers and baths as well

7:58-9:40🛏️ BEDROOM — Flame retardants in mattresses, plastics in sheets and comforters

9:40-10:18💡LIGHTING— Incandescent bulbs > LED to regulate circadian rhythm

10:18-13:13🧴SKINCARE- how fragrance is a major hormone disruptor found in many skincare products and other negative health effects

13:13-16:42👕 CLOTHES — Dyes, PFAS in workout clothes, fast fashion and its implications

Hey guys!

Today I’m going over how dangerous sitting and leading a sedentary lifestyle can be. I also go over how adding movement throughout your day ( think of these as “exercise snacks”) in addition to a workout can help mitigate the risks of a sedentary lifestyle. 

In this video, I break down the latest research on how movement — from simple walks to squats and strength training — combats the effects of sitting all day. Whether you're at a desk job or just living a low-movement lifestyle, this video is for you.

I also mention how women especially can benefit from strength training, needing less time than guys to reap the benefits. I go over briefly, too, how cycle syncing your workouts can be so beneficial to really work with your body instead of against it. 

I hope you learn something new in today’s video and as always, if you have any questions, drop them down in the comments below!

Most people think low energy is just about sleep, stress, or needing more coffee… but the real issue goes much deeper.

Your energy is created at the cellular level—inside your mitochondria.

In this video, I break down:

• What mitochondria actually do (in simple terms)

• What damages your cells (and what strengthens them)

• Practical ways to improve your energy naturally

If you’ve been feeling constantly tired, unmotivated, or burned out—it’s not just in your head. There’s a biological reason behind it, and the good news is… you can fix it!

This is about working with your body, not against it.

Are you tired of the "hustle harder" approach to health? In this video, we’re shifting the focus from human effort to divine grace. We often treat our health like a secondary chore, but what happens when we place God at the center of our physical and mental well-being? We move from striving—constantly burnt out, dieting, and failing—to thriving in the strength He provides.

Join me as we explore a God-centered approach to nutrition, movement, and rest. We’ll dive into how to honor your body as a temple without the crushing weight of perfectionism.

Struggling with an all-or-nothing mindset in your health journey? This toxic thinking pattern may be increasing chronic stress and sabotaging your ability to build sustainable healthy habits.

In today's video I'm going over how a toxic mindset about health can be detrimental to your health journey and ways to combat it! True health is not about perfection but consistency! When we are striving for perfection, that can stress out our brain and body leading to worse health outcomes, even if we're doing all the "right" things.

Hello!!

If you struggle with falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up tired, your sleep problems may actually be starting during the day!

In this video, I break down what sleep hygiene is and explain how your daytime habits affect your circadian rhythm, hormones like cortisol and melatonin, and your ability to sleep well at night. Sleep isn’t just about what you do before bed; it’s about how you live your entire day.

In this video, I cover:

• What sleep hygiene really means

• How circadian rhythm controls your sleep-wake cycle

• Morning habits that support better sleep at night

• Blue light and its effect on melatonin

• Nighttime wake-ups

• Evening routines that help your nervous system wind down

If you’re looking for natural ways to sleep better, want to improve your energy during the day, or feel like your sleep schedule is off, this video will help you understand why that’s happening and what to do about it.

If you’re tired of guessing what’s affecting your sleep and want personalized support, I offer 1:1 health coaching to help you regulate your nervous system, support circadian rhythm, and build sustainable habits that actually work for your life.
