Holistically Healthy

What if your body is not breaking down, but trying to get your attention in the only way it knows how?In this episode of Holistically Healthy, host Sydona Tregoning sits down with Dr. Erin Hayford, a Naturopathic Doctor and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, to talk about what really happens when symptoms do not respond to plans, protocols, or positive thinking. Erin shares her personal experience living with chronic illness, including a Crohn’s disease diagnosis, and why being labeled with a condition does not mean you are sentenced to a fixed future.This conversation focuses on the nervous system and why regulation comes before healing. Erin explains how the body responds to long term stress and unresolved trauma by staying in survival mode. When that happens, symptoms become signals. Pain, fatigue, inflammation, and digestive issues are not random failures. They are attempts by the body to communicate that something is not safe or supported.Sydona and Erin explore somatic experiencing as a practical way to reconnect with the body without overthinking it. Instead of asking what is wrong with you, Erin encourages asking what your body needs right now. She explains how trauma can live in the body long after the original experience has passed, and why talking alone often is not enough. Healing requires learning how to notice sensation, slow down reactions, and build capacity for safety inside the nervous system.You also hear why symptom management can sometimes keep people stuck. When the goal is only to quiet the symptom, the message gets ignored. Erin describes how working with the body rather than against it can open a new path forward, especially for people who feel exhausted by doing all the right things with little relief.This episode is for anyone who feels frustrated, confused, or disconnected from their body. It is for those who sense that healing is possible but do not know where to begin. The starting point is not more effort or more control. It is learning how to listen.What if the breakthrough you have been chasing actually starts with listening instead of fixing?Connect with Dr. Erin HayfordWebsite: aurora somatic.comINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/drerinhayford/YOUTUBE: youtube.com/@sacredillnessSUBSTACK: Substack: drerinhayford.substack.com CONNECT WITH SYDONA TREGONINGWebsite:  Vitality Coaching  Instagram: Instagram (@sydona_t)For supplementsFullscript https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/stregoning/signupUse the link above and get 15-20% off physician grade supplements when you create an account

What if your success is coming at the expense of your wellbeing? Many high achieving women feel proud of their drive, but they also feel exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed. In this episode, Sydona Tregoning explains why this happens and how the imbalance between masculine energy and feminine energy plays a major role.Women who spend years operating in masculine energy often do it to survive. They push harder, control everything, and stay focused on outcomes because uncertainty feels unsafe. For many, this pattern forms after anxiety, trauma, or instability. Sydona breaks down how this survival mode leads to scarcity mindset, chronic tension, and difficulty connecting with others.She also explains how feminine energy works in the body. Feminine energy is tied to creativity, play, expression, and emotional movement. When women suppress these states, the nervous system pays the price. Many listeners will relate to her examples of procrastination, emotional shutdown, or feeling frozen when trying to create. Sydona connects these experiences to nervous system regulation and shows how oxytocin-based activities, relationships, and connection support female wellbeing.This episode challenges the idea that relationships are distractions. Sydona explains why healthy masculine energy can actually help women feel safe, supported, and stable. This safety allows feminine energy to open, which improves health, stress response, creativity, and connection.Listeners who feel stuck in masculine energy will walk away with clarity about what their body is trying to tell them and why shifting into balance matters for long term health.Are you building a life from fear or from alignment with who you really are? Think about it…. But answer AFTER you listen to the episode.

What Your HRV Is Trying to Tell YouWhat if your constant fatigue, bloating, or brain fog isn’t about what you’re eating—but how your nervous system is functioning? In this solo episode of Holistically Healthy, host Sydona Tregoning reveals how heart rate variability (HRV) acts as a secret diagnostic tool for understanding your body’s stress response.Most people obsess over supplements, workouts, and morning routines without realizing that a low HRV is their body’s SOS signal. It means chronic stress has hijacked recovery, hormone balance, and digestion. Sydona breaks down why staying stuck in fight-or-flight keeps you exhausted no matter how healthy your lifestyle looks on paper—and how tuning into HRV can change everything.How to Rewire for Calm and Real ResilienceSydona teaches the steps she uses with clients to retrain the body’s stress response and rebuild resilience from the inside out. By bringing awareness to your stress patterns, shifting daily behaviors, and learning how to rest without guilt, you can literally reprogram your biology toward healing.She explains how balancing cortisol, improving gut health, and supporting your autonomic nervous system all start with one thing—listening to your body’s signals instead of fighting them.If your “healthy habits” still leave you anxious or drained, this episode shows you how to reconnect with your body’s natural rhythm and restore genuine balance.Your body already knows how to heal. The real question is—are you ready to listen?Access to the Workbook https://sydona-tregoning.mykajabi.com/pl/2148711026 CONNECT WITH SYDONA TREGONINGWebsite:  Vitality Coaching  Instagram: Instagram (@sydona_t)Hormonal Harmony Free MasterclassHormonal Harmony Replay with wait listFor all other supplementsFullscript https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/stregoning/signupget 15-20% off physician grade supplements when you create an account

What if your health challenges are not just physical, but rooted in the subconscious mind and unprocessed emotions?In this episode of Holistically Healthy, host Sydona Tregoning sits down with healer, educator, and meditation teacher Anni Eza to explore how real transformation begins when we look beyond surface symptoms. Anni shares her personal journey from feeling disconnected and carrying deep grief to discovering energy healing as a path to integration. She explains how subconscious patterns shape 95 percent of daily choices, often keeping people stuck in cycles of anxiety, trauma, or depletion.Why the Mind Body Soul Connection MattersTogether, they discuss the mind body soul connection and why bridging functional medicine with spiritual healing practices creates lasting change. Supplements and protocols can only go so far if emotional wounds and subconscious beliefs remain unresolved. Anni reveals how her unique method combines meditation, intuitive guidance, and subconscious reprogramming to help clients release stored trauma, heal digestive issues, and restore vitality.Healing Beyond the SurfaceListeners will hear why energy healing is more than restoring balance, it’s about addressing the root cause of suffering. Anni and Sydona also highlight the upcoming holistic health masterclass designed to blend functional nutrition, energetic healing, and practical tools for self-awareness. Participants will not only experience a group healing session but also leave with insights to shift patterns that drain energy and block progress.Reclaiming WholenessIf you’ve tried every supplement, every diet, every quick fix without finding relief, this conversation will open new possibilities. Healing is not about fixing what is broken, it’s about remembering your wholeness and reclaiming your power.Connecting with Anni EzaWebsite: https://seedsofbliss.life/en/Facebook: @seeds.of.bliss/Instagram: @seeds.of.blissTikTok: @anni.ezaYouTube: @SeedsofBlissDigest Your Life: Emotional & Physical Gut ResetSunday, October 19 · 11:30am - 1pm CDThttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/digest-your-life-emotional-physical-gut-reset-tickets-1735378627189?aff=oddtdtcreatorCONNECT WITH SYDONA TREGONINGWebsite:  Vitality Coaching  Instagram: Instagram (@sydona_t)Hormonal Harmony Free MasterclassHormonal Harmony Replay with wait listFor all other supplementsFullscript https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/stregoning/signupget 15-20% off physician grade supplements when you create an account

What if your symptoms weren’t proof that your body was broken, but proof that your body was doing everything it could to protect you?In this episode of Holistically Healthy, host Sydona Tregoning sits down with Nina from Humans Unplugged, a therapist and coach who knows firsthand the complicated journey of healing. Nina’s story challenges the conventional idea that doing “all the right things” automatically leads to health. She ate clean, moved her body, practiced breathwork, and meditated. Yet, her symptoms grew worse, eventually leading to a cancer diagnosis.The turning point? Realizing that true healing wasn’t only about food or supplements—it was about identity. Nina explains how trauma, emotional repression, and survival patterns quietly shape the nervous system and, over time, the body itself. Suppressed emotions—like anger or grief—don’t disappear. Instead, they fuel stress responses that can eventually show up as illness.Through her own experience and work with clients, Nina reveals that health isn’t just a checklist of habits but a deeper process of breaking survival patterns, dissolving old identities, and reclaiming emotional expression. She also discusses the profound role of generational trauma, and how cycles passed down through families can manifest as recurring health struggles—until someone chooses to break them.Listeners will come away with a new perspective on what it means to heal. This conversation is both practical and deeply human, reminding us that our bodies are not failing us; they are adapting. True transformation happens when we stop fighting symptoms and start listening to what they’re telling us.So, ask yourself: Are your symptoms the problem—or are they the map pointing you toward real healing?Connect with NinaWebsite: .humansunplugged.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/mindbodyninaX: https://x.com/mindbodyninaTikTok: Find 'mindbodynina' on TikTok | TikTok SearchCONNECT WITH SYDONA TREGONING:Website: Vitality Coaching                                                            Instagram: Instagram (@sydona_t)Hormonal Harmony free masterclass  Hormonal Harmony Replay with wait list Sydona is an affiliate for JUST MEATS                                                  Use Sydona’s code: SYDONAT15 https://www.justmeats.com/For all other supplements:Fullscript https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/stregoning/signupget 15-20% off physician grade supplements when you create an account

The truth about Mold and how its not just here to hurt you, but here to uncover what you've tried to bury. On this episode of Holistically Healthy, host Sydona Tregoning sits down with Morgan Glodowski to share her experience with mold and how it led to a near-death experience, leaving her bedridden with more than thirty symptoms in just three months.Through this powerful conversation, Morgan explains how mold affects the immune system and why so many people are misdiagnosed. She shares how traditional medicine failed her and why a holistic approach focusing on detox, trauma release, and nervous system regulation was key to her recovery. Breathwork, Kundalini practices, and an unwavering belief in the body’s ability to heal became game changers on her path.This episode also explores the emotional side of mold illness—how stagnant environments can mirror unprocessed trauma and how healing often requires going deeper than just physical detox.

Have you ever wondered what true holistic wellness looks like when you strip away every mask you wear?On this week’s episode, host Sydona Tregoning sits down with holistic wellness practitioner Deana to uncover how authenticity is the cornerstone of deep healing. From the moment Deana hit “rock bottom” in her recovery journey, she knew that superficial fixes—quick‑fix diets or trendy detoxes—would never sustain real change. Instead, she’s championed a return to regenerative nutrition, emphasizing whole, organic foods that actually nourish our bodies and the planet.Together, Sydona and Deana talk about the unseen culprits lurking in everyday meals—common food industry toxins that silently undermine our gut health and throw our nervous systems out of balance. Deana explains how even a handful of conventionally grown produce can introduce chemicals that disrupt digestion, mood, and energy.But it’s not all doom and gloom: they explore actionable steps like mindful eating rituals, where slowing down to savor each bite becomes an act of self‑respect. Deana guides listeners through simple practices—pausing before meals, checking in with hunger cues, and breathing deeply—that reclaim the body’s natural wisdom. These small shifts, she says, lay the groundwork for a vibrant life infused with intention.Throughout the conversation, authenticity weaves through every topic. Deana reminds us that when we align our choices—food, movement, even the company we keep—with our truest selves, we unlock a ripple effect of healing: physical, mental, and emotional.If you’re ready to step off the wellness hamster wheel of one‑size‑fits‑all fads and embrace a holistic wellness path tailored to your unique story, this episode is your roadmap.Are you brave enough to peel back the layers and discover what regenerative nutrition and mindful practices can truly do for your body—and your life?Tune in to learn more about how food can be used as a powerful tool to actually improve your health!

What if the missing piece in healing your gut isn’t another supplement but your mind? On the latest Holistically Healthy episode, “What Happens When Holistic Nutrition Meets Meditation,” host Sydona Tregoning sits down with Albina Albek—a seasoned holistic nutritionist—to reveal how a consistent meditation practice can revolutionize gut health and overall well-being.Albina’s journey began when intense workouts, a big move, and multiple rounds of antibiotics devastated her gut microbiome. Every “gut health tip” and specialized diet she tried failed until she discovered meditation for healing through Dr. Joe Dispenza’s guided practices. “Those meditations allowed me to process buried stress,” she explains, “and rewired my brain’s response to food.” Albina, who trained at Integrative Nutrition Institute, crafted a personalized protocol blending whole foods, targeted supplements, and daily meditations.In this conversation, Albina breaks down the science of the mind body connection and explains why true holistic nutrition demands calming the nervous system first. She combines practical gut health tips—such as removing inflammatory foods and supporting detox pathways—with daily five-minute visualizations and gratitude exercises. By imagining her body healed and repeating affirmations like “I am whole,” her subconscious shifted, allowing her physiology to follow.Albina also shares advice on identifying emotional blocks that manifest as digestive issues. “When you feel anxious about eating,” she says, “journal the fear, then meditate on a future where you’re thriving.” Her holistic nutritionist advice offers clients not only solutions for leaky gut and food sensitivities but also tools for maintaining inner peace and resilience.If you’ve tried every diet without success, this episode could be the game changer. Discover how integrating meditation for healing with holistic nutrition not only repairs your gut microbiome but also cultivates vibrant energy, balanced hormones, and mental clarity. Are you ready to trust your body—and mind—to guide you toward true health?To connect with Albina AlbekWebsite: https://www.instagram.com/holisticwithbina?igsh=dW0xdng1ODUxcjJv TikTok: Albina | Holistic Nutritionist (@holisticwithbina) | TikTokInstagram: Albina Albek | Holistic Nutritionist (@holisticwithbina) • Instagram photos and videosTune in to learn more about how food can be used as a powerful tool to actually improve your health!

Are you struggling with persistent fatigue, stubborn weight gain, or the complexities of PCOS? In this solo episode, host Sydona Tregoning talks about the foundational aspects of blood sugar regulation and its profound impact on overall health. Sydona begins by demystifying the concept of blood sugar, explaining how carbohydrates are broken down into glucose, the body's primary energy source. She highlights the crucial role of insulin in transporting glucose into cells and discusses how imbalances can lead to energy crashes and fat storage, particularly around the abdomen.The episode explores the significance of muscle mass in glucose storage and the benefits of incorporating resistance training, such as calisthenics or Pilates, into your routine. Sydona emphasizes the importance of meal timing and composition, advocating for balanced meals rich in protein, fiber, and healthy fats to stabilize blood sugar levels.Listeners will gain insights into the symptoms of dysregulated blood sugar, including energy dips, sleep disturbances, and hormonal imbalances associated with PCOS. Sydona also touches on the psychological aspects, discussing how chronic stress can perpetuate blood sugar issues and hinder weight loss efforts.For those seeking a deeper understanding and practical strategies, Sydona introduces her six-week program, "Nourish," designed to empower individuals to take control of their health through informed nutrition and lifestyle choices.Are you ready to transform your relationship with food and reclaim your energy?

What if the real route to feeling strong isn’t another punishing workout plan but a deeper conversation between your mind and your muscles? That’s the invitation in this week’s conversation, where host Sydona Tregoning sits down with Jon Orsini, an accomplished teacher in Somatic Breathwork, to explore how listening can be just as transformative as lifting. Sydona opens by confessing her old bodybuilding mindset: five‑day splits, macro spreadsheets, and the stubborn belief that soreness equals success. Yet, as she began coaching women through her Nourish program, she noticed an unsettling pattern. Data‑driven routines delivered gains on paper but often left clients disconnected from their bodies—especially during hormonally challenging phases of the menstrual cycle. Pushing through fatigue wasn’t discipline; it was downright exercise addiction, a self‑inflicted stress response that spiked cortisol and stalled genuine growth.In his breathwork circles Jon Orsini meets high‑achievers—many of them women—who have mastered spreadsheets but lost touch with sensation. He explains the nervous system regulation paradox: when stress hits, the brain’s survival hardware can trigger dissociation, the very disconnection that lets someone power through another set even as their knees buckle. Over time that protective wall becomes a prison, blocking the subtle cues that would guide smarter, kinder training choices.Through guided breathwork exercises, Jon helps clients re‑enter those numb zones. A simple body‑scan paired with cyclic sighing can unearth layers of tension—and unexpected emotions—stored in quads, hips, or a clenched jaw. As participants reclaim those signals, their definition of “high performance” shifts. The new metric isn’t six‑pack symmetry; it’s sustainable energy, stable moods, and a cycle that actually cycles. That’s hormone balance for women in real life, not just on a lab report.The duo also tackles the social narrative that glorifies grind culture. When pain is worn like a badge, stepping back feels like failure. Jon reframes it: “Treat yourself like an object and you’ll attract people who do the same. Treat yourself like an ecosystem and you’ll glow from the inside out.” That mind‑body connection becomes a magnet for healthier relationships, both in and out of the gym.Listeners leave with practical takeaways:Swap one intense session a week for mindfulness meditation or yin yoga to boost recovery.Use Jon’s three‑breath reset (inhale, hold, prolonged exhale) whenever the urge to “push through” overrides intuition.Journal post‑workout feelings; flag red‑lines like dizziness, joint pain, or emotional numbness.By the end, Sydona and Jon prove that real strength is cooperative, not combative. Muscles grow in rest, lungs speak wisdom, and your body awareness—once reawakened—makes every rep, breath, and choice more powerful than any algorithm could prescribe. Press play and start breathing your way back to wholeness. Connect with Jon OrsiniWebsite: https://www.jonorsini.com/Instagram: @jonorsiniYouTube: @Jon.OrsiniCONNECT WITH SYDONA TREGONING:Website: https://sydona-tregoning.mykajabi.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sydona_t/Nourished Wait List: https://sydona-tregoning.mykajabi.com/signup-7870187c-f7d7-4112-960c-fc7b0c07930d Fullscript https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/stregoning/signupget 15-20% off physician grade supplements when you create an account

Are you overwhelmed by life's demands, feeling as though there's never enough time for yourself? In the latest episode of the Holistically Healthy podcast, host Sydona Tregoning speaks with life coach Michelle Gauthier about overcoming chronic stress and the sense of never doing enough.Recognizing Overwhelm and its ImpactMichelle suggests start by recognizing the signs of overwhelm, which often manifest as physical sensations like tense muscles or rapid heartbeat. Realize that this state can limit your capacity to think and act clearly. Identifying these moments is the first step in overcoming them.Transforming Thoughts to Alleviate StressMichelle proposes shifting negative thoughts to more manageable ones, allowing for action in a grounded state. For example, turning “I don't have enough time” into “I know the first thing I should work on” can significantly lower stress levels, enabling you to approach tasks with greater focus.Creating Space for CalmLastly, the conversation highlights the importance of making small lifestyle changes. Whether it's taking a moment to savor your lunch or allowing silence instead of reaching for your phone in idle moments, these habits can carve out room for calm in a hectic life.The essence of the episode is clear: it's possible to navigate life with less stress and more fulfillment. As you reflect on your own habits, ask yourself: what one small change can you make today to begin living more holistically healthy?Connect with Michelle GauthierInstagram: @michellegauthiercoaching/Podcast: Overwhelmed Working Woman: Boost Productivity, Master Time Management, Overcome Overwhelm & Stop People PleasingCONNECT WITH SYDONA TREGONING:Website: Vitality CoachingInstagram: Instagram (@sydona_t)Elimination Diet:  Resources PageOne Time Consultation  the code is 50OFFPTo watch the replays of the Hormonal Harmony Masterclass contact me on Instagram: @sydona_t Sydona is an affiliate for JUST MEATSUse Sydona’s code: SYDONAT15 https://www.justmeats.com/ Sydona’s Favorite Collagen:Further Food | Collagen Powders, Plant-Based Protein, Supplementsuse SYDONAT to get 18% off. For all other supplements:Fullscript https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/stregoning/signupget 15-20% off physician grade supplements when you create an account

Why Detox Cleanses Do Not Work and How to Detox the Right WayHave you ever tried a detox cleanse, expecting to feel amazing, only to end up exhausted, bloated, or worse? The truth is, most detox programs don’t work because they ignore the real reasons your body struggles to eliminate toxins.In this episode, Sydona welcomes Lindsey Walker, an intuitive health coach and bioenergetic root cause practitioner, to explain why traditional detox methods often fail. Lindsey shares her personal health journey and how energy work, emotional release, and muscle testing can transform the way we approach detoxing.Why Most Detox Methods FailFrom juice cleanses to liver detox pills, the wellness industry is full of quick-fix solutions. But Lindsey reveals why these approaches don’t address the root cause of toxicity. If your body’s detox pathways—like the liver, gut, and lymphatic system—aren’t functioning properly, no amount of supplements will fix the problem.More importantly, detoxing isn’t just physical—it’s emotional and energetic, too. If your body is holding onto unprocessed emotions like stress, anger, or grief, those blockages can keep toxins trapped inside, making cleanses ineffective.The Emotional Side of DetoxingDetoxing isn’t just about food—it’s about how you process emotions and energy. Lindsey explains that people who struggle with chronic symptoms often have unresolved emotional trauma stored in their bodies. If you’re constantly stressed or emotionally stuck, your nervous system stays in fight-or-flight mode, making detoxification nearly impossible.By using breathwork, emotional release techniques, and energy healing, Lindsey helps clients clear these emotional blocks, making physical detoxing far more effective.Are You Energetically Attracting Toxins?One of the most surprising insights Lindsey shares is that your energy frequency determines what your body holds onto. If you’re surrounded by toxic relationships, stressful environments, or draining situations, your body may resonate at the same frequency as parasites or toxins, making it harder to get rid of them.She explains how clearing this energetic pattern makes detoxing easier and more effective—without endless parasite cleanses or restrictive diets.How to Detox the Right WaySo, if traditional detoxes don’t work, what does? Lindsey outlines a better approach to detoxing:Regulate Your Nervous System – Stress shuts down detox pathways. Breathwork, meditation, and grounding exercises help.Open Drainage Pathways – Support the liver, kidneys, gut, and lymphatic system before starting any cleanse.Use Muscle Testing for Supplements – Take what your body actually needs, not what the internet suggests.Release Emotional Blocks – Addressing stored trauma helps remove physical toxins more effectively.Shift Your Energy and Mindset – Stop identifying with illness and start focusing on healing.The Truth About DetoxingThis episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about detoxing. If you’re tired of ineffective cleanses and endless supplements, Lindsey’s holistic and intuitive approach offers a powerful new way to heal.Are you ready to stop guessing and start detoxing the right way?

What if PCOS wasn’t a permanent condition, but rather a sign from your body calling for balance? For many women, dealing with PCOS means battling irregular cycles, acne, weight gain, and hormonal imbalances. Yet, by addressing core drivers—insulin resistance, stress, and inflammation—you can begin to heal PCOS naturally and restore your health.Take insulin resistance, a common cause of PCOS. While the advice to eat fewer carbs and exercise harder is widespread, it can backfire, worsening symptoms instead of easing them. Strategies like balanced meals, stable blood sugar practices, and supportive movement are far more effective in addressing this root cause sustainably.Stress and its impact on hormones also play a pivotal role. Chronic stress elevates cortisol levels, derailing hormonal balance and amplifying PCOS symptoms. Mindful practices like yoga, meditation, and self-compassionate inner dialogue not only reduce stress but also help create a mindset needed for healing.Inflammation, fueled by diet, toxins, or chronic stress, is the third key driver. Transitioning to anti-inflammatory foods and reducing toxin exposure promotes healing from within, easing PCOS symptoms over time.The functional medicine approach emphasizes addressing these three factors holistically, not just masking symptoms. Healing PCOS also involves reframing self-talk and building confidence. It’s not merely about symptom relief—it’s about inviting a better quality of life.PCOS can feel overwhelming, but what small step can you take today to show your body it’s safe to heal? Transformative change begins with just one choice.Tune in to learn more about how food can be used as a powerful tool to actually improve your health!

What if your body holds onto every emotion, every stress, every moment of trauma, storing it like an archive, just waiting for the right moment to be heard? This episode unpacks the profound connection between the body, mind, and trauma, revealing how suppressed emotions and energy can linger within our physicality, manifesting as pain or discomfort. Through discussions about bodywork, cranial osteopathy, and emotional processing, the conversation unravels how unresolved energy trapped in our tissues influences not only our physical well-being but also the way we attract experiences and interact with the world. By harnessing techniques that allow the release and reintegration of these emotions—along with fostering gratitude and safety within—the body can achieve a state of balance and healing that transcends simple symptom management. It challenges the listener to think: Could your persistent pain or anxiety actually be your body trying to protect and speak to you?

What if the key to unlocking your physical health lies in addressing unresolved emotional trauma?SYDONA'S PERSONAL JOURNEY The Onset of Health Issues  About five years ago, Sydona experienced a range of health issues including daily panic attacks, eczema, and digestive problems despite living a healthy lifestyle.  Unprocessed Trauma as the Root Cause  Her personal crisis revealed that unresolved childhood trauma was stored in her body, manifesting as physical ailments. These health challenges were linked to gut infections, thyroid issues, and hormonal imbalances.REDIFINING TRAUMA Breaking Common Misconceptions  Sydona highlights that trauma is not limited to severe events like war or assault. She introduces the concept of complex trauma, which stems from repetitive yet seemingly minor experiences, such as parental yelling, lack of emotional nurturing, or emotional invalidation.  Trauma's Impact on the Body  Unresolved trauma keeps the body in a chronic fight-or-flight state, leading to overproduction of cortisol. This hormonal imbalance disrupts various bodily functions, such as digestion, sex hormone production, and magnesium levels.LIMITATIONS OF TRADITIONAL THERAPY Advantages of Talk Therapy  While talking through trauma can validate experiences, Sydona acknowledges its benefits.  The Downside: Potential Retraumatization  However, for some individuals, repeatedly discussing trauma can be counterproductive and exacerbate their distress.  Exploring Alternative Approaches Sydona advises exploring new therapeutic methods for those seeing little progress in traditional therapy.STRATEGIES FOR HEALING  **Holistic Healing Practices**  Sydona shares the following strategies from her own healing journey:  1. Building a supportive network to validate experiences without judgment.  2. Practicing meditation to observe thoughts without attachment.  3. Exploring somatic healing to release stored trauma in the body.  4. Using breathwork techniques to regulate the nervous system.  5. Implementing cold therapy to build resilience.  6. Identifying personal triggers and developing coping strategies.  7. Reframing past experiences to promote healing.  **The Role of Mind-Body Connection**  Sydona emphasizes the importance of addressing both mental and physical aspects of health. Healing is an ongoing journey, not the absolute elimination of symptoms, but rather fostering a better awareness of one’s body and its needs.IN CONCLUSIONCould the key to lasting health lie in addressing unresolved emotional trauma, rather than focusing strictly on physical symptoms?

What does it take to heal from an "incurable" disease? For Timothy Tynan, the journey to overcoming Crohn's disease challenged everything modern medicine told him was possible. In this episode with podcast host Sydona Tregoning, Timothy Tynan shares his remarkable path from being diagnosed at age 11 - when he dramatically lost 90 pounds in six months - to achieving complete healing from a condition that doctors insist can only be managed, never cured. After losing his father to Crohn's complications when Timothy was 21, he realized the conventional route of immunosuppressant drugs and steroids wasn't his path to wellness. This devastating loss became the catalyst for exploring alternative healing methods, though even these proved insufficient on their own. The true breakthrough came through an unexpected combination of physical and spiritual work, including sessions with a shaman who helped Timothy understand that his emotional state was intrinsically linked to his physical symptoms. The shaman posed a life-changing question: "What if you don't get better? Can you still find peace in what is in your life?" This shifted Timothy's entire perspective, leading him to realize that healing required surrendering to the present moment rather than constantly fighting against his condition. In her interview, Sydona draws out the details of Timothy's unconventional healing journey, including his work with a practitioner who personalized his treatment every two weeks, adapting to his body's responses rather than following a predetermined protocol. The proof of his healing is remarkably simple yet profound - where once a piece of sourdough bread would have left him ill for days, Timothy can now enjoy normal foods without any adverse reactions. As a Licensed Massage Therapist and Structural Energetic Therapist, he now helps others understand the crucial connection between emotional, spiritual, and physical healing. In a world where chronic illness is often accepted as a life sentence, Timothy's story represents a ray of hope and possibility. His journey proves that sometimes the most powerful healing comes not from fighting harder against disease, but from finding peace in the present moment while remaining open to unconventional solutions. Ready to challenge everything you thought you knew about chronic illness and healing?Tune in to learn more about how food can be used as a powerful tool to actually improve your health!

Holistic Approach to Health: The episode emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach to health that goes beyond just physical aspects. This includes managing stress, supporting gut health, and fostering body literacy. By cultivating a deeper understanding of your body and its needs, you can better support your hormonal health and metabolism, ultimately aiding in fat loss and overall wellness.The conversation touches on the complex interplay of various hormones, including estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, and thyroid hormones, and how they can affect fat loss.
