Living Life Naturally

About Dr. Nikki Siso:

Dr. Nikki has a PhD in Holistic Health & Nutrition and a Master's in Sustainability from Harvard. She supports fellow diabetics in using diabetes as a tool for personal development. She teaches how to control blood sugars using a holistic approach of physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.

What We Discuss In This Episode:

In this episode, we discuss an holistic approach to diabetes management. Nikki discusses diabetes resulting from stress-induced blood sugar spikes. Managing emotions through personal development helps control cravings and sugars more than nutrition alone. Checking triggers and beliefs guides healthier choices.

 Nikki Siso was diagnosed at 29 years old, with type one diabetes, which thrust her into studying really hard to understand what she could do to support her body from a nutrition perspective. She learned a lot through that process which included another layer that needed to be addressed and once she did the personal development work, she was then able to actually control her blood sugars even more and better. 

 Nikki shares her thoughts and experience regarding mindset when it comes to diabetic meals. She shares the importance of understanding how your body reacts to different foods. For example, some people get blood sugar spikes from rice, other people spike more from potatoes. Different starches, different carbohydrates, will affect your blood sugar differently. And then a high fat diet leads to high resistance, which also creates an impact. However, Nikki points out how you can do the exact same thing every single day and have different results based on how well you slept, your hormones, your stress levels, and even how much fat you’ve eaten the day before.  All these things play a factor in how blood sugars scale.

 Nikki shares how important it is to look at calming the nervous system. That's one of the primary steps. What are your stresses in life?  How are you responding to life's experiences? And then what are the emotions that come out in you? 

 Getting to know your body, and learning if your hunger is a physical thing, emotional thing or a mental thing. Learning those triggers and knowing what your body Is telling you can be a hard piece of the puzzle for people that have never done that before.  But once you start doing it you can realize how quickly you can tune into your body’s cues on different things.

 Nikki shares a few tricks. For example, you can put a little sticky note on your fridge asking if you’re really hungry - just a little cue to support you in stopping the pattern of just like satiating the craving and like pattern interrupts, right? 

 We then discuss some of the simpler aspects of diabetes, like what are some of the best meals for a diabetic. There's a lot of confusion in the diabetic world. Nikki says the simplest way to break this down is eat high volumes of fruits and vegetables. You think fruits are loaded with sugar, but they're actually loaded with fiber that helps in slowing down sugar digestion.  

 The best starting point is to remove processed foods and everything in the center aisles of the grocery store, and to ideally shop at the farmers market where things are picked fresh, locally, they're organic, they're seasonal, and they're eating with nature, what nature provided. Go back to that way of thinking, “Whatever comes out of the ground is nutritious for a body.”

 We chat about the need for fats in our diet. Nikki explains there are healthy fats like avocados nuts and seeds - healthy ways to get fat in your diet in good portions. Note: Not a whole avocado but half an avocado at most per today.  

And where does the the role of exercise come in – especially when dealing with diabetes? Nikki reminds us that the bigger muscles are, the more we burn sugar. Even just walking can be great for bone density as you age.  Also, lifting weights is a must in your day. It can be body weights, yoga, Pilates, or using your own body weight for strengthening your muscles.  Incorporating a brisk walk in the evening that boosts your metabolism - even if it's just 20 minutes around the block in your neighborhood, you'll burn the excess sugars, you'll boost your metabolism so that you do burn those sugars.  It's also really great for your nervous system, and for calming your system.

Nikki closes out by sharing how we should see diabetes as a blessing instead of a curse. It's an opportunity to check in with yourself and with your body. When you can manage diabetes with grace and self-love you can manage anything life throws at you. It may not always be perfect, but you can use each challenge as a stepping stone to change and better health.

What We Discuss In This Episode

 In this episode, we chat about some of the things that are going on in the body, and the changes that are occurring.

We discuss some of the foundational things we must do to start feeling better and why natural vs HRT.What natural body processes can transform your menopause journey and your well-being?

What other areas of wellness  women need to keep on the radar during menopause.

Weight Gain and Hormones:

The real reason why we gain weight during menopause:

• Cortisol overrides other hormones and causes increased insulin, the fat storage hormone.
• Reducing stress is key to lowering cortisol and managing weight.
• Adaptogens like ashwagandha can help lower cortisol.

Natural Solutions:

Why Eileen recommends that women try the natural route versus take medication & ways to accomplish the natural element.

• Essential oils like progesterone plus help hot flashes.
• Detoxification with chlorella and lemon water is important.
• Gut health from probiotics, prebiotics, and fermented foods is critical.
• Anti-inflammatory diet with no processed foods or added sugars.

Areas of Focus:

• Detoxification, gut, brain, liver, thyroid, adrenals, skin. Must be a holistic approach.
• Toxins cause inflammation and hormone disruption.
• Fragrances can lead to endometriosis and diabetes.

Adrenal Fatigue:

What is Adrenal Fatigue and how does this affect menopause?

• Over-production of cortisol leads to adrenal fatigue.
• Phases progress from overactivation to fatigue, aches, and round-the-clock exhaustion.
• Adrenal fatigue goes unrecognized by mainstream medicine.

Key Takeaways

1. Hormone imbalance during menopause can lead to weight gain, hot flashes, anxiety, depression, and more.
2. Reducing stress and inflammation are key to managing menopause symptoms naturally.
3. Detoxification, gut health, adrenal health, and thyroid health are important areas of focus.
4. Diet and lifestyle changes are critical for long-term improvement.
5. Skin care products can contribute to hormone disruption and toxicity.

About Lisa Dahl:

Lisa Dahl is a Certified Health and Well-Being Coach specializing in Intuitive Eating, Mindful Eating, and Body Image. In addition, she is also host of the TV show and Podcast, Getting Healthy Without Rules.

Her hallmark emphasis on mindfulness and self-compassion helps women find a successful pathway to whole-body wellness. She supports her clients as they discover "Body Peace & Food Freedom" on their journey to break free from dieting and diet culture. Her clients achieve a higher level of well-being as Lisa guides them through visioning, goal setting, and accountability.

What We Discuss In This Episode:

Become the expert on your own needs and desires instead of following external diet rules.

•  Signs of being negatively affected by diet culture.
• Body checking and comparing yourself to others.
• Praising before/after weight loss pictures.
• Most people regain weight, so "after" pictures are often future "before" pictures.
• Envying those who restrict food better.

Ways to challenge diet culture's influence.

• Become aware of actions, behaviors, and thoughts. Awareness helps regain power.
• Create believable new thoughts to replace negative self-talk.
• Use phrases like "I am learning to appreciate" instead of "I accept" if not yet true.
• Focus on how activities make you feel good, not how many calories they burn.

 Body image and age

• Many regret not improving body image and intuitive eating earlier.
• It's never too late to start. Health is most important, not weight.

Weighing yourself

• Lisa doesn’t weigh clients and suggests throwing the scale out the window.
• Weighing can be triggering, even for a coach. Think about only allowing measuring weight for true medical need.
• You can decline weighing at doctor for non-critical reasons.
• Focus on measuring happiness, anxiety reduction, etc. rather than weight.

 Intuitive eating tips

• Ask: "What am I feeling?" and "What do I need?"
• Name emotions beyond "stressed" or "overwhelmed" using emotion app.
• Food is the messenger, not the enemy. Meet needs in other ways too.

About Alexandra Renders:

During this time, she has discovered her gifts and continually honed her skills.

Alexandra talks about her intuitive gift and her ability to help people overcome trauma and emotional conflicts, which can be truly effective via virtual sessions. Alexandra uses various modalities to address issues like codependence and fear of loneliness.

 We go on to discuss the importance of women getting in touch with their anger and expressing it in healthy ways to set boundaries and empower themselves. Alexandra also shares her belief that women need to create a safe space to express their emotions.

 Alexandra shares her view on various topics, including intuitive readings, healings, and living a natural lifestyle.

About Amy Lawrence:

Amy describes herself as being a gal of many talents and careers. Originally a special education teacher, turned self-made entrepreneur she opened a tearoom restaurant and gift shop without any restaurant or business experience, just with the passion of loving to prepare homemade food for others. Her tearoom was #1 best tearoom in US in 2004. This career turned into blending and selling loose leaf tea wholesale and retail and writing many cookbooks with her own recipes.

In 2014, Amy tore her vertebral artery, causing a stroke. This woke her up to life and as a result, she sold her tea business. Very happy to be alive, she ate whatever she wanted and gained a lot of weight.

In 2016, she joined a weight loss program, lost over 40 pounds but hated their recipes so decided to create her own, which is how her blog, Gourmet Done Skinny was born. A few years ago, she was invited to be a guest speaker on Weight Loss Made Real with Cookie Rosenblum to talk about food prep. She was amazed at the response. What she thought was ordinary food prep, thrilled and motivated the listeners. This encouraged her to write the book - The Power of Food Prep - it became an international best seller #1 on Amazon. From there she developed and created her own food prep membership called - Food Prep for Foodies.

In her own words, Amy says, “I am a woman who has had many successful careers, almost died twice, but I am here and thriving! Food prep is self-care - so that you can have more time for the things you love.”

About Brittany Cano:

Brittany Cano is the founder of Faithful Fitness by Brittany & Holistic Nurse Coaches. She has a true passion for guiding overextended women to prioritize their wellbeing so that they can fulfill their life’s purpose with peace & passion. Through medicine, movement, & mindfulness she helps you heal & elevate mind, body, & spirit.

Brittany holds a Bachelor's Degree in Science of Nursing and is certified as a life coach, personal trainer, health coach, EFT practitioner, Reiki healer, and yin yoga instructor. Through her holistic Wellbeing programs, classes, & retreats (both locally and abroad), she utilizes her background as a registered nurse of 15 years combined with her expertise in holistic wellness & healing.

What We Discuss In This Episode:

Brittany and Lynne discuss the concept of busy women's syndrome, which refers to the negative effects of chronic stress and constant busyness on women's health. They shared personal experiences and highlighted the importance of slowing down, resting, and balancing the nervous system to prevent health issues associated with this syndrome.

We also discussed the impact of stress on women's health and the need to change the mindset around busyness and prioritize rest. Brittany emphasized the importance of setting boundaries, questioning societal expectations, and debunking the belief that taking time to rest is selfish.

But at some point you really have to sit down and say, hey, this isn't working. I can't carry the whole load myself.  We have to get help from somewhere. And as women, we really need to speak out. And I'm saying this, I don't find it so easy to do myself.  It's a learned practice and something that we need to start learning.

Brittany reiterates the importance of self-care and advocating for oneself, emphasizing the need to learn how to say no, ask for help, and create inner calm through practices like EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). 

Brittany discusses the benefits of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) for reducing stress and improving social interactions. Brittany shares why she feels EFT is effective. Let’s face it, sometimes people aren’t able to get into a place of calm  right away.  The mind is everywhere. Through EFT on acupressure points, we're able to hold the body's stress response, really connect the mind, the emotions, and the body.  It can also be used if you feel “stuck” in a certain situation – something you find yourself experiencing over and over. EFT is a perfect tool for that kind of situation and Brittany has been able to help clients clear things from 30, 40, 50 years ago.  It’s a powerful modality.

Brittany loves to see women get back into balance in their lives. She encourages us to explore what the impact of being “nonstop busy” is doing to us.  Some people have a huge schedule -  a lot of things that they're up to in life, but they have balance.  And they don't feel that intense pressure, intense anxiety or intense feeling that they have to “perform.” But if you’re not reaching that balance you need - especially if you're caught in that busy nonstop going, stop and asking yourself, “what do I really need right now?”  And then listen to what you really need, and then meet that need. So, it might be that instead of rushing into the next meeting, you need to take five minutes. 

We need to advocate for ourselves, because good chances are nobody else is going to advocate for you.

Key Takeaways:

1.    What is Busy Woman Syndrome?

2.    What are some of the effects of Busy Woman Syndrome?

3.    How can super busy women take care of themselves without feeling it’s selfish to do so.

4.    How can we set healthy boundaries?

5.    We explore some of the other tools we can use to dig deeper into some of the things that keep us in that “Busy Woman Syndrome” space.

6.    What support Brittany recommends for a woman with Busy Woman Syndrome?

About Ruth Fearnow:

Ruth Fearnow is a therapist, author and speaker. Her first book, Therapeutic Mindfulness, is a synthesis of her decades-long meditation practice and her work healing trauma and mental distress.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) practitioner, she has identified and embedded the factors necessary for healing into therapeutic mindfulness, a skill to facilitate one's healing journey.

Ruth's private journey began as a young woman when she found herself studying kung fu and qi gong in Dengfeng City, China, the home of the famous Shaolin Temple. It was there she began a serious meditation practice. While this skill takes years to develop, this was her first big step to understanding mindfulness practices.

Ruth's evolution into a trauma therapist has enabled her to integrate age-old wisdom with trauma-informed insight. As a result, she has developed healing philosophies and the process of therapeutic mindfulness which she practices personally, and teaches to her clientele, many of whom use it on their own. Therapeutic mindfulness has now been adopted for professional use by colleagues in the mental health field.

What We Discuss In This Episode:

• Dealing with feelings directly is transformational and Therapeutic Mindfulness shows us how to do so.
• How Therapeutic Mindfulness is different from other forms of mindfulness.
• Ruth shares with us about coping skills versus healing skills.
• What factors help the mind to heal?
• What role does self-compassion play in this or other healing processes?
• Ruth shares how we can know we I should try this process for ourselves.
