Communicating With The Spirit Of Your Baby

Beauty isn’t skin deep. With Eczema Coach Tamae Takahashi, we are peeling back the layers to learn more about beauty from the inside out. Yes Mama, you can heal your eczema (and your little one’s too) holistically! First, let’s take a look at what we mean by Eczema. Eczema is a skin condition that shows up on the crease of your elbows, behind your knees, on your neck, and even your eyelids. It typically presents where you have sensitive skin and is dry, itchy, or scaly in appearance. What We Covered:  Detox from the inside out. Consume more organics Topical Steroid Withdrawal: When your skin actually becomes addicted to the topical steroid prescription treatments. Topical steroids are a bandaid and not an actual treatment. Eat a wide variety of vegetables and look into their nutritional content. Brown rice is more detoxifying than white. Red beans are helpful as well. Conventional meats can have antibiotics and different chemicals that you are indirectly consuming. One cause of the increase in eczema is having antibiotics prescribed easily today. They can change your gut microbiome. Reducing toxic load that can relieve symptoms of eczema Eczema triggers  Fast food Stress Toxicity in personal care products around you Reduce inflammatory load in body with nutrition

Healing Eczema Holistically

In this episode of The Mamaverse Podcast we are diving into the topic of pain and its relation to our overall health and wellness with pain specialist, Robert Hull. Robert wasn’t always super keyed into his health. His education started when he lost 100 pounds in a year and wanted to inspire others to be able to reclaim their health.  What We Covered:  Movement is medicine: There are preventative measures you can take when it comes to experiencing pain in your body It is common for people to have an imbalance of strength, flexibility, and even mobility. A discrepancy greater than 10% can actually cause pain. Sometimes, we seek concrete causes as the root of our pain, and when initial assessments don’t diagnose the pain we turn to MRI or other imaging techniques.  Imaging can be more mentally harmful for people than helpful, especially when the cause of pain is stress related and not tied to a direct injury visible in imaging. The Medical Community might over diagnose the pain seeking a treatment such as surgery to cure the pain, when noninvasive exercise, flexibility training, and stress reduction can make a major impact

Living Life Pain Free

Welcome Sheree Beaumont to The Mamaverse Podcast! Sheree started her wellness journey when she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition at just 22 months old! Later in life, Sheree experienced burnout attending university and working full time. She was exhausted and couldn’t get a handle on her health and wellness. To find answers, Sheree began exploring holistic and functional medicine What We Covered:  Women struggle the most when it comes to hormones and gut health. Many women are unaware of the effects stress has on our body, how stress drives burnout. Moms are trying to do it all between careers and raising a family, and living in a constant state of stress.  Exercise is a form of stress, but a good stress. Inflammatory foods: Gluten, Caffeine, Dairy, and Sugar. These inflammatory foods cause stress on your body. We are in an Obesity crisis: Gluten concentration has increased by 4 times. One slice of toast now actually equals 4 slices of toast. When added up, this can cause a massive inflammation response in the body.  Gut health is connected with hormones: All disease begins in the gut. Sit down with your child and teach them to chew their food until it is liquified. Women of reproductive age should not be practicing intermittent fasting. Fasting research was done on men If you don’t feed your body, it produces more cortisol, holds on to extra weight, and dysregulates your hormonal cycle because your body thinks it’s starving  Stay in touch!

Achieving An Optimum Lifestyle Through Nutrition

We’re back with another episode of The Mamaverse Podcast! In this episode of the podcast, we cover being bullied, raised by a single mom, and the impact of physical wellness can have on someone. Paul Antonelli shares his personal story of finding confidence in himself through physical fitness. Together we dive into how important it is to model physical fitness and wellness to inspire these for our children.  What We Covered:  Paul started working at 15 and was able to start training as a martial arts student. We’ll explain the difference between exercise physiology and personal trainers.  Exercise physiologists require a four year degree from an accredited university, passing an exam from the American College of Sports Medicine accreditation, and then it requires continuing education yearly.  With this certification, Paul maintains an advanced scope of practice, and areas where he is required to hand off the work or the client to someone with different training. Be intentional by carving out time for yourself whether it's a hobby, fitness, or just meditating. Women tend to seek more educational information, ask questions, and take feedback more productively when it comes to training and coaching. Women are generally more in tune with their physical bodies and wellness than male counterparts.  The five leading causes of death over 45 are obesity related

How stress levels, diet, and lifestyle are impacting your health and overall wellness. Illness starts emotionally. Khristee dives into the importance of emotional wellness as an aspect of your overall physical wellness. If you haven’t resolved and healed trauma, it goes into the body and manifests as disease. Khristee incorporates shamanism, chakra healing, and reiki healing into her wellness practice and works to balance the body, mind, and spirit.  Be curious about your body, and see how it connects with how you feel.

We’re keeping it real y’all as we speak about formula (and why it’s not the failure option), why things that are totally out of your control are not your fault and how breast milk is not actually free when you consider how much energy and work goes into producing and feeding your baby.    Join us as we sit down and share why every decision you make is a very personal decision you make for your family. You're doing great, mama!    What we covered:  Formula: there’s a lot of talk about this on social media which might overwhelm all the moms. We’re here to give the BeauGen perspective- fed is best and we don’t formula shame.  Unlocking a new level of empathy once you become a mom Fault: why it’s time to stop internalizing something that is totally out of your control as a major personal failure  When it comes to breastfeeding and even motherhood focus on one pump session (or step) at a time  Free: it’s common to think that breast milk is free, but there is a hidden cost to breastfeeding  Related Episodes:    A partner’s perspective on breastfeeding  Mindset Mastery for Moms    Learn more about Beaugen and our products:   https://www.beaugen.com/  https://www.beaugen.com/collections/beaugen

F Words in Motherhood

When it comes to food and its impact on our bodies, medicine, and the functional nutrition community are demonstrating that the link between our digestive health and overall health matters immensely.     As moms, we have a busy schedule and often we are focusing on nourishing our children and less so on nourishing ourselves. Considering 70% of our immune system lives in our gut, it shouldn’t be the last thing we consider when we try and get back on track with our health.   In today’s episode, Tu-Hein and Maggie are talking with Courtney Podany,  a nutritional therapy practitioner with an emphasis on gut health. Her focus is to help clients find the most supportive foods for their unique bodies, teach them how to optimize their digestion, and provide everyday tips to begin healing their gut.   During our powerful conversation, Courtney speaks on making the connection between nutritional health and gut health, the importance of nourishing foods over packaged foods, and common examples of food and trends that lead to poor gut health.    What we covered:  Courtney shares her journey and how signing up for a nutritional therapy practitioner certificate completely changed her career trajectory How Courtney made the connection between nutritional health and gut health after  being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes  How to keep nutrition simple as a busy mom Common pitfalls you can avoid as a mom when it comes to nutrition Examples of food and trends that lead to poor gut health Addressing poor gut health can help fix symptoms like bloating, low energy, and even acne Top 3 ways you can prioritize your food intake for gut health     Related Episodes:   https://www.beaugen.com/blogs/beaugen-mom-podcast/super-moms-need-superfoods   https://www.beaugen.com/blogs/beaugen-mom-podcast/18-from-failure-to-thrive-to-thriving-through-nutrition     Link section:    Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nourished_living_/?hl=en Website: https://trainwithcourtney.com/   Guest Bio:   Courtney’s goal as a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner is to simplify health and wellness for her clients with an emphasis on gut health.
