Send a text Most people come to my work when they’ve hit an impasse. They’ve tried the diets. The protocols. The lab tests. The supplement stacks. They’ve run parasite cleanses, gut protocols, detoxes, hormone panels, food sensitivity tests — sometimes for years. And while pieces helped, nothing rebuilt their body in a way that felt stable or sustainable. In this episode, I’m naming what I see happening underneath that cycle. Many people aren’t failing at healing. They’re trying to force cohe...
Send a text If you’ve been listening to the first few episodes of this year, you know I’ve been walking us through something intentional — not adding more information, but helping us feel what’s been happening underneath the surface in our bodies and nervous systems. In the first episode, I named the shadow crisis beneath the wellness movement. In the second, I talked about how oversimplified, certainty-based wellness backfires in real bodies. In the last episode, I unpacked how science and s...
Send us a text Welcome back to the Rewilded Wellness Podcast. I’m your host, Lydia Joy. Today’s episode builds directly on the last two I released this year: In The Shadow Crisis Beneath the Wellness Movement, we named the bigger paradigm people are trying to heal inside of—over-treatment, information overload, loss of containment, and the way modern wellness inherited an intervention-first mindset. In The Epidemic of Oversimplified Wellness — and Why It Backfires, we looked at how single-nut...
Send us a text In this episode, I take a close look at how health misinformation spreads in modern wellness culture — and why it’s so destabilizing to the nervous system, especially in the Information Age. People often ask me to review things they see on Instagram or explain whether a claim is “true.” I’m not here to fact-check the internet — but I am here to help you build discernment. Because when you don’t have a filter, your nervous system becomes the filter. That’s how people end up over...
Send us a text In this first episode of 2026, I’m naming something that’s been building beneath the wellness world for years — and has now reached a breaking point. Modern wellness has become excessive, incoherent, and deeply disconnected from how bodies actually heal. This episode isn’t about tearing wellness down. It’s about telling the truth about what’s blocking real progress. We’re living in an information-saturated culture where healing has become something people research relentlessly,...
Send us a text The Phase No One Talks About: Slow Rebuild, Nervous System Repair, and Why I Went Quiet Hey friends, it’s Lydia. It’s been a little quiet here on the podcast — not because I didn’t want to show up, but because my own system needed a pause. My body was asking for space to recalibrate, to integrate, to just be. And as I slowed down, I realized something: the pause itself was a signal — not just for me, but for the people I work with every day. We rarely talk about the phase that ...
Send us a text This episode dives into the alchemy of Scorpio season and the minerals that guide the body through transformation. Discover how sulfur, iron, manganese, and copper support the natural “composting” of old patterns—physiologically, emotionally, and spiritually—so decay can be metabolized into new life. Explore the interplay between seasonal shifts, gut microbes, and mineral metabolism, and how these processes mirror the quiet, internal work of Scorpio season. Learn about Calcarea...
Send us a text As we move deeper into mid-fall in the Northern Hemisphere, the light is changing. The days are shortening, the sun sits lower in the sky, and our bodies are adjusting — whether we’re aware of it or not. This episode explores that seasonal recalibration through a biological and seasonal lens. We’ll look at how shifts in daylight influence the circadian rhythm, hormone timing, sleep patterns, energy levels, mood, and even our immune function. This isn’t about forcing ourselves t...
Send us a text This week, I’m taking you inside a sauna and cold plunge gathering that sparked a much deeper reflection on electrolytes, minerals, and what it really means to be charged — physically, emotionally, and energetically. We’ve all heard “just add salt to your water,” but in this episode, I unpack why electrolytes aren’t one-size-fits-all and how your unique mineral balance determines whether a sauna session feels nourishing or totally depleting. I’ll walk you through the physiology...
Send us a text Today’s episode is all about what it really means to integrate healing — the part most people skip over because it’s not flashy, linear, or fast. It’s where the body begins to reorganize itself after long periods of stress or depletion, and where so many get stuck thinking something’s gone wrong when, in truth, deep repair is underway. I share what I’ve noticed in my own journey after reviewing my latest hair test results — how the nervous system recalibrates once it no longer ...
Send us a text Struggling with sleep that never feels restorative? It’s not always about habits or stress hormones — mold exposure can silently hijack your minerals and throw your whole system off balance. In this episode, I unpack how magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium set the rhythm for your nervous system, and how mold toxins can “steal” minerals like copper and iron, locking them away so your body can’t use them. The result? Wired-but-tired nights, energy crashes, and a nervous sys...
Send us a text Have you ever felt frustrated with your healing journey — like no matter what you do, it never feels fast enough, linear enough, or obvious enough? You’re not alone. That frustration often shows up right before we discover that real healing doesn’t look the way we’ve been conditioned to expect. In this episode, I’m talking about the shift from frustration to flow — and why recognizing your body’s natural healing process is the key to lasting transformation. Instead of chasing q...
Send us a text Building Your Voltage: The Thyroid-Gut-Circadian Triangle Welcome back to the Rewilded Wellness podcast! In this episode, we dive deep into one of the most foundational aspects of human health: building your cellular voltage — and why it’s the key to supporting your thyroid, gut, and overall circadian biology. I share my personal story of recovery after leaving a water-damaged home, a period when every small trigger — from sneezing to brain fog — reminded me how vulnerable my b...
Send a text Terrain Work: Why Your Body's Story Matters More Than Your Symptoms After 11 years of tissue mineral analysis and 44 personal tests, I've learned that sustainable healing isn't about chasing symptoms or following one-size-fits-all protocols. It's about understanding your unique terrain - your genetics, constitution, life story, and the environmental factors that shaped your health journey. In this vulnerable birthday episode, I share the biggest insights from my decade-plus healin...
Send us a text In this birthday month deep dive, I'm sharing the profound realizations that have emerged from 11 years of quarterly hair mineral testing and my journey into constitutional herbalism. As we transition from Leo's fixed fire into Virgo's mutable earth energy, it's the perfect time to explore what real, lasting health transformation actually looks like. Spoiler alert: it's not what wellness culture has taught you to expect. After 44 hair tests and working with hundreds of clients,...
Send us a text In this episode, I'm calling out the spiritual bypassing that's everywhere in the wellness space right now. From "you just need courage, not healing" to "you're not broken" - these oversimplified messages are missing the complex reality of being human. After 11 years of quarterly hair mineral testing and watching my body respond to life, I've learned that we need BOTH courage AND healing. We need nuanced conversations that honor the whole human experience - the beautiful AND th...
Send us a text I've been soaking up this magical Leo season, picking berries at local farms and making plant infusions that feel like exactly what my body needs. It got me thinking about flow versus force - and how we've all been conditioned to swim upstream against our bodies instead of working with their natural wisdom. In this episode, I'm sharing what my garden taught me about healing, why I've made some bold boundary decisions in my practice, and how to move beyond the endless root cause...
Send us a text I've never met a single person cured by a parasite cleanse. Yet everywhere you look, someone's pushing the latest elimination protocol. What if the obsession with cleansing parasites is actually keeping you trapped in cycles of depletion? In this episode, I break down why the warfare mentality toward parasites fails, what these organisms are actually doing in your ecosystem, and how our cultural shift from Capricorn rigidity to Aquarian innovation is changing everything about h...
Send us a text Your Body Isn't Meant to Be Forced Into Submission What if the way we've been approaching healing is fundamentally imbalanced? In this episode, I share a deeply personal journey from forcing protocols to embracing flow, and why this shift matters for all of us - especially women. I open with a story from my recent new moon ritual at the wild spring where I collect my water, exploring how our relationship with the elements can become medicine rather than just another item on our...
Send us a text Making Sense of Detox: What Hair Tests and Methylation Really Tell Us Why aren't your detox protocols working? In this episode, Lydia breaks down the missing piece most people overlook - your cellular electrical system. Learn why supporting individual detox pathways fails when your foundational cellular charge is compromised, and discover what your hair test is really telling you about your body's ability to eliminate toxins. Topics covered: • Why your cells need electrical cha...
