How would you like to start the new year with a focus on health rather than weight loss? This time of year, after holiday indulgences, many of us turn to the scale as a measurement of supporting our health. In this episode I’d like to offer a different perspective on supporting your health that can improve your immune system and have the beneficial side effect of leading to a healthier weight in many cases. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m sure you’ve heard the craze of intermittent fasting for weight loss. But do you know that fasting has many more beneficial effects that can strengthen your immune system and even support you in the cancering process? Listen now and get an eye-opening view on the importance of when to eat. &nbsp; Referred to in this episode:

S4E11: Overlooked Cancer Care- A Conversation with Dr. Thomas Seyfried

When it comes to living the life you desire after breast cancer, it can be difficult to overcome deeply ingrained belief systems and worry about how others will think of or judge you for changing your life.&nbsp;   The fear of change can be so powerful that some people will cling to being ill because illness seems like a valid excuse to escape the things they don’t want to do.&nbsp;   But, trying to show up as a sick person doesn’t support healing, living joyfully or creating a full life.&nbsp;   So why do we think that we have to prove we’re too sick to go back to a life that may have contributed to our illness to begin with?&nbsp;   Why do we let other people’s thoughts stop us from pursuing our happiness?&nbsp;   Why do we continue to choose thoughts that keep us stuck and hoping for something bad to happen to give us an out?&nbsp;   In this episode I’ll tell you some of the reasons I hear and some of the thoughts I had to work through when I was faced with making a big change in my own life.&nbsp;   I’ll also offer you some mindset shifts to help you work through some of these common thought errors so you can create a life you love that’s better than before breast cancer.™&nbsp;&nbsp;   Referred to in this episode:&nbsp;   &nbsp;   Follow me on:&nbsp;   &nbsp;   &nbsp;

#313 The Truth About Breast Cancer and Self-Care - It Isn't All About Bubble Baths

Sometimes, I really wish we could unlearn all the scary, limiting things we’ve been taught throughout our lives.&nbsp;   Imagine if we could stop believing that we have no power, that cancer isn’t curable, that we’ll never be able to live without fear, that we shouldn’t rock the boat, that we shouldn’t make more than our husbands etc, etc, etc…&nbsp;   How many things have you learned that result in you playing small, keeping your emotions, thoughts, and expectations stuffed somewhere inside your body, and feeling sick and exhausted?&nbsp;   What if you could decide to unlearn all of it and what if breast cancer was your entrance to the school of unlearning?

#315 Could Breast Cancer Be The School of Unlearning?

Today’s episode is a special one for my fellow breast cancer survivors. We’re going to explore the world of mitochondrial health, and the impact of synthetic fragrances, and discover how natural essential oils can support our metabolic health.&nbsp;   Our focus begins with the mighty mitochondria, these tiny organelles are crucial for energy production, and we discuss how their health is vital, especially for breast cancer survivors.&nbsp;&nbsp;   Then, we shift gears to discuss the hidden impact of synthetic fragrances. While these fragrances may seem harmless, they can have unseen effects on our health, particularly on our sensitive mitochondrial function. I share insights into how these synthetic elements can disrupt our body's natural processes and why being mindful of what we inhale is as important as what we eat or drink.&nbsp;   We explore how natural fragrances not only uplift our spirits but also provide health benefits. From their mood-enhancing properties to respiratory benefits.&nbsp;   If you’re a breast cancer survivor or someone interested in holistic well-being, this is your invitation to learn, grow, and thrive.

Should you try the Atlantic diet—the Mediterranean diet’s trendy rival?

<p>Dr. Elisa Song is one of those clinicians that I could just keep talking to! She's a respected colleague and pioneer in pediatric functional medicine with so many practical tips for navigating childhood illness and health. Need to get your kiddo/patient through a blood draw they don't want to do? Or get your picky eater to take their supplement? Dr. Song has the answers. I appreciate her candor as she talks about how and why her practice has evolved in certain areas (such as in the use of targeted probiotics and even "psychobiotics" for autism, ADHD, anxiety, OCD and more) and in spelling out which supplement brands and doses she uses and why. Dr. Song tackles the immense challenges impacting the health of our kids and teens head on with positivity and smart, doable strategies for lasting success. This is a fascinating and empowering discussion with many clinical pearls that I will be implementing both in practice and for my own daughter going forwards. I hope you enjoy it too! ~DrKF</p>
