Episode 76: The Highly Sensitive Person

9/27/2019

Laura and I are back behind the mic, coming at you with a topic that means a whole lot to us, personally. She and I each score quite high on Dr. Elaine Aron's Highly Sensitive Person questionnaire and have found both camaraderie and relief from being able to talk with other HSPs about some of our "quirks" more thoughtfully. Today we talk about what an HSP is, how this trait effects our health, and some of our most successful ways to cope with the onslaught of sensory input in our world. Let's get into it!

I'm putting on my "yogi" hat today as Leah interviews me on my VERY favorite form of movement. I'll talk about why yoga resonates with me and my sensibilities and how I reconcile an eastern spiritual tradition with my own faith tradition. As Adriene says..."I'll meet you in downward dog..."

Episode 73: Why Diets Don't Work

This topic is a big one! After hinting at it for months now...we're here with a definitive stance on dieting once and for all. Today, Jackie and I are talking through why diets don't work and how to approach areas of health that still want attention in light of this fact. Hang tight 'til the end even if this one makes you a little squeamish because I'm offering some help that I hope will feel super practical. So, adopting this quote I love from June Tomaso Wood, say it with me: "My mind is not allowed to bully my body!" Now, let's dive in.
