Sleep is incredibly overlooked in today's society, and so many of us struggle to get a good night's sleep. We're human, not robots. We need a good night's rest to perform our best the next day. A poor night's sleep can lead to focus issues, not being alert, and a slew of other issues that build on top of each other. Inadequate sleep can also lead to poor immune response, resulting in sicknesses.

There are so many gaps in therapy in general that are the reason why people aren't getting the tools they need to heal themselves from chronic illness. Therapy is a great tool to have if you're going through a life event and need support in how to approach situations better. But therapy alone isn't enough to heal chronic illness. Listen to this week's episode to see what I believe medical professionals and therapists should be educated on.

In this episode, Amy talks about how coming out of survival can feel on your body and talks more about her childhood traumas that have led to limited communication with her parents.

Welcome back, Friends! This week's episode marks a new direction that I'm taking my podcast in. No one talks enough about how being raised in an emotionally unstable and toxic environment can lead to all sorts of health issues. In this episode, I go into my experience as a child and how it's affected my health over the years. Talking about our childhood traumas is extremely challenging, and I commend anyone who stands up for themselves and decides to share their own. While this topic can seem dark, my goal is to create a safe space for us to release these traumas and break generational curses so we can heal.

We've been brainwashed to believe that the only way to make a living is by working for someone day in and day-out and only have our older years for retirement. Many people don't know how powerful they truly are until they decide that enough is enough and take their power back into their own hands and start to create a life that they're proud of. It all starts with pouring back into yourself and allowing yourself to do things that make you happy, fueling yourself with foods that love you back, and respecting yourself enough to no longer interact with people who are committed to misunderstanding you.

Welcome back, friends! Birth control is an extensive topic, which is why I wanted to have a part 2 to the series. There is so much about our bodies that women are not taught from a young age. Doctors prescribe birth control like it's candy and women are getting sicker than ever. There's a way to track your cycle naturally and become more empowered with what's really going on with your body. I cover how to track your cycle naturally, what tools I use, and how I am learning more on balancing my hormones!

Birth control is considered a class 1 carcinogen, and yet, it's being handed out like candy by medical providers to girls as young as 14. It's a crime to not provide education on the side effects, given that it has a black box warning. As someone who was on birth control for 8 years, getting off gave me my sense of self back. I discuss my experience on birth control and the truth about what it really does to womens' bodies. Part 2 will cover natural remedies and how to take your power back!

Welcome back, Friends!! In this episode, I talk about how doing something, even if it's just one thing, is better than doing absolutely nothing at all. We live in a world where we're exposed to so much toxins on a daily basis, so it's crucial to do what we can to protect ourselves. You don't need to have all of the money to make healthier choices. It's all about doing what you can for your situation and controlling the things that you can! Don't stress about what's out of your control. EWG Shopper's Guide

Welcome back! Supplements and pesticides are probably two things that you would never think would be talked about together, but there's a connection between the two that I believe are important to talk about. Chemical treatments are widely used in the US and are unfortunately being treated on produce and being released into the air that we breathe. There are proper ways to make sure that your body is protected through supplementation. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a DM on Instagram @healingwavespodcast

We live in a world where there's so much information (and misinformation) to where people are so confused on how to live a healthier lifestyle. Health really is simple and doesn't need to be overcomplicated. Whole foods will never be bad for you. Big industries have the money to be able to push marketing onto consumers to try and sway them in a different direction. Before following a new health trend or influencer, ask yourself: is this aligned with me? Is this going to help me with my health and wellness goals? We all start somewhere. I'm so happy that you are here and bettering yourself on a daily basis!

There's always a reason for a diagnosis. Chronic illnesses, diseases, and chronic symptoms don't happen for no reason. Our bodies are always telling us when something is off. Episode 7 goes deep into why chronic illnesses and diseases are skyrocketing among both adults and children recently, who's profiting from it, and what we can do to protect ourselves. This podcast is now available on Amazon and Apple podcasts as well and we're working on getting it available on all platforms! Be sure to follow @healingwavespodcast on Instagram for any updates :)

Hi beauties!! I am so excited for you to listen to this episode. I was chronically dehydrated for so many years, leading to many chronic symptoms that I had no answers for.

I am forever grateful for the foods that have helped to heal my body from chronic illness. I discuss what foods I avoid, how I approach grocery shopping, and what foods I consume in abundance.

Join me as I share the importance of cutting out certain inflammatory foods and how it can cause chronic illnesses to worsen.
