Episode 336: The Lymphatic System: A Whole Body Approach to Healing with Dr. Perry Nickelston
Overcoming chronic pain requires an understanding of how different parts of the body (and the mind) influence each other in the healing process. Today’s podcast guest, Dr. Perry Nickelston, focuses on healing chronic pain and inflammation via the lymphatic and vascular systems. What this conversation emphasizes, however, is the fact that nothing heals in isolation.
Erin and Dr. Perry delve into why blood flow and lymphatic health are essential for the health of the rest of the brain/body (and visa versa), the importance of the vagus nerve, diaphragmatic breathing and how it keeps the lymphatic system pumping efficiently, the lymph and brain health, and more.

Episode 334: Circadian Rhythm Support for Daylight Saving Time
Daylight Saving Time is a challenging transition for many of us. Circadian rhythm disruption is one of the major contributors to hormonal imbalance and is very common in our modern-day lifestyle, making recovery from Daylight Saving Time even more difficult. Learn more about the importance of supporting your circadian rhythm and how to do so through lifestyle changes and hacks.
While it’s normal to experience some level of fatigue after Daylight Saving Time or a time change, if you’re constantly exhausted, feeling burnt out, or generally depleted, this may indicate that something deeper is going on.

Episode 333: Functional Stool Testing: What It Is & How to Know If You Need It
If you have obvious GI symptoms going on (digestion, bloating, gas, heartburn, acid reflux, loose stools, diarrhea, constipation, or sluggish bowels) you might want a stool test. But there are some non obvious conditions that also have a GI component, such as autoimmune diseases, hormonal imbalances, and skin conditions, that would also benefit from results of a stool test. Learn about functional stool testing, what it is, how you know if you need it and how it can help you.
