In this episode, we unpack how we have to create a new "program" or "story" when we are healing. We know our current lifestyle and where that trajectory has gotten us, but how do we break that? How do we undo past conditioning, thoughts, feelings, and beliefs?We talk about a possible addiction to a life we don't even life and I talk more about this on stress hormones and addiction to them in this previous episode. I also have chatted in the past about neuroplasticity and times in the day where we are most open to change in our subconscious here. We also talk about how to take a step back, how to notice, and how to start setting boundaries, habits, thoughts, behaviors, and beliefs that are in alignment with our future and not our past. We talk about our influences, how to assess if these things are helping or harming us? Next, we talk about looking at insomnia on a "lifestyle medicine" perspective.It is SO much more than just taking a supplement. It involves assessing the lifestyle, connecting with the sun and the body's natural circadian rhythm, things that block melatonin, so many ways that we can assess and address the lifestyle so that we can find balance, get to a restful state of sleep on a regular basis.I also talk about testing that can come in handy, specifically a DUTCH and OAT to look at what may be happening with the hormones and the gut. Those can be requested here. I also talk about red light therapy for some and PEMF mats. This is my favorite brand for these: https://www.therasage.com/?rfsn=6701944.26322f&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6701944.26322fCODE: DRSTACYFor more on these things and SO MUCH MORE, follow me on IG @dr.stacy.nd

In the episode, I speak more on the topic of thyroid health, how it is a symptom of a larger imbalance in the body, and how the hierarchy of hormones needs to be considered when it comes to "healing" the thyroid. We also talk about how important gut and liver play a role as most of our thyroid is actually converted in these two areas! We also chat about the things that blow thyroid receptors including heavy metals, halogens, and even insulin. We can test minerals, metals, and toxins through functional labs and those can be requested here. I also talk about the importance of knowing what blood sugar, insulin and cortisol are doing in regard to thyroid, and I always encourage testing your individual response to know for sure with a CGM, like Nutrisense! CODE: DRSTACYND25Next, I talk about coffee, while there can be many therapeutic benefits from any polyphenol contains foods, we all have different responses to caffeine and coffee, so I speak on some of the signs to look for is it is not working for you, testing your own blood sugar response, of course, and emphasizing QUALITY as well if it is something you continue in your day to day!Lastly, I talk about the power of intention setting when it comes to the new year and really anytime! When it is a heart led or intuition led decision or idea, it is going to stick that much more, we are OUT with the resolutions that are based off of fear, guilt, and shame. We work better in a place of love and empathy for where we are while working on the higher version of ourselves we are working towards!Thank you so much for the support, for more on all of these, head to my IG @dr.stacy.nd and stay tuned for more topics and questions I take from my social!With Gratitude, Dr. Stacy

I talk about my years as a trainer, how dieting culture did the opposite of what it was supposed to do for me, and how to supportively create sustainable fat loss.I also talk about how thyroid and hormones are blamed, but uncovering how these are not causes, but SYMPTOMS.I also talk about lifestyle factors that keep up with metabolic optimization like our lifestyles, our environments, and our chronic stress.I talk about insulin (the fat storage hormone), how and why it's a problem in today's society, and how to learn how to start supporting it.

I talk about things that affect our neurotransmitters, like pathogens and toxicities. Testing for those can be requested here. Also, some times, limbic training can come in hand along with the other options I mentioned.

Secondly, I chat about healing tools, are they helping us more than they are harming us with more and more data than we know what to do with? Are we losing our intuition in the name of having these fun tools? How to incorporate them into your healing journey without causing more stress and disconnect of the mind and body.

I use an OAT test for that. I also discuss Folic Acid and how it interrupts your methylation.
