It’s the one-year anniversary of the Heart Led Wellness podcast! Woo hoo!!! To celebrate, I am answering listener questions that you sent in on Instagram.

Why does waking up between 1 and 3 am mean your nervous system is dysregulated? Is eating 2500 calories necessary for period recovery? What steps should you take when you want to reach for food to self soothe? Why is living in mold so bad for your health and nervous system?

51: 7 sneaky signs you’re avoiding FEELING your emotions + The magic that happens when you start to feel again
If you are living your life overthinking, overanalyzing, and intellectualizing things, it might be because your body doesn’t feel safe enough to actually FEEL. And when you aren’t allowing feelings to be processed and moved through your body, you will be prone to physical and mental health issues, and life will feel much more challenging. In today’s episode, I’m sharing 7 specific signs that you’re avoiding your feelings and some of the incredible shifts that happen when your body finally unravels years of suppressed emotions. I dive into… The trap of overanalyzing, overthinking, and intellectualizing things instead of feeling Why living in our heads is a sign of an unsafe body 7 specific signs you’re not feeling your feelings Common behaviors I see in clients/people who are avoiding their feelings Why learning more about emotional health is keeping you from actually changing your life How feeling clears space in your system for your intuition to blossom Why you should “feel first, think later” Physical health symptoms that result from not feeling your emotions Where do emotions go when we suppress them? How feeling your emotions changes your posture and confidence? How to feel more happiness than you ever thought was possible Links Mentioned ⁠⁠Free Root Cause Identifier Quiz! ⁠⁠⁠(see what the root cause of your food struggles is) ⁠⁠⁠Heart Led Eating course⁠⁠⁠ information Connect with me on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram @heart.led.wellness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1-on-1 Coaching info ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Acne Safe Skincare (Clearstem Skincare⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) code "HeartLedWellness" for 15% off ashlyn@heartledwellness.com Intro music created and produced by Wavesy!

49: The one FOOD that can lower anxiety, stress, adrenaline, cortisol, and help you HEAL trauma
Eating more of this one food could be a game changer in your nervous system regulation journey. I have seen drastic changes in my own mental health and the emotional balance of my clients when they eat more of this food. Following up on last week’s episode (about how caffeine impacts adrenaline and cortisol), this episode explores a special food that can help lower those stress hormones in your body. I discuss… Where do cortisol and adrenaline go after they are released into the bloodstream? Why does your liver health impact how stressed you get? What is bile and how does it related to stress? The one substance that is magical for lowering adrenaline and cortisol How this substance can prevent your body from recirculating stress hormones The best food sources of this stress reducing ingredient My own experience (and my clients) of eating more of this food How to incorporate this food if you have a sensitive gut How to properly prepare and cook this food Stress reducing hacks using nutrition Links Mentioned ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Free Root Cause Identifier Quiz!⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠ (see what the root cause of your food struggles is) ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠JOIN Heart Led Eating⁠ ⁠My DIY Somatics Masterclass⁠ Connect with me on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram @heart.led.wellness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (I'm on my stories everyday!) ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1-on-1 Coaching info⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email me at: ashlyn@heartledwellness.com Music created and produced by Cam Roberts Disclaimer: Nothing in this episode is to be taken as medical advice.

48: Why I don’t drink coffee and never will: How caffeine impacts your nervous system and healing capacity
Caffeine is the most normalized drug in our society. It’s such a part of our daily lives, that we often don’t sit back to question how this artificial stimulation is really impacting our adrenals and nervous system. In today’s episode, I am sharing exactly why I recommend you stop consuming caffeine if you are wanting to regulate your nervous system or heal trauma. Stay for the end of the episode where I share nervous system friendly coffee brands too! I discuss… Are the “health benefits” of coffee legit? What causes some people to be more sensitive to caffeine? How caffeine impacts your nervous system The relationship between adrenaline and caffeine How trauma and caffeine mimic each other Why I never recommend drinking coffee while working on your nervous system The dangers of artificially stimulating your adrenals How coffee violates your body’s boundaries Why you need coffee to wake up How coffee impacts blood sugar and therefore cortisol How to stop drinking caffeine Nervous system friendly coffee brand recommendations Links Mentioned ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Free Root Cause Identifier Quiz!⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠ (see what the root cause of your food struggles is) ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠JOIN Heart Led Eating⁠ ⁠My DIY Somatics Masterclass⁠ Connect with me on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram @heart.led.wellness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (I'm on my stories everyday!) ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1-on-1 Coaching info⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email me at: ashlyn@heartledwellness.com Music created and produced by Cam Roberts Disclaimer: Nothing in this episode is to be taken as medical advice.

47: Too much of a good thing is a bad thing: How perfectionism, extremes, and all or nothing thinking keeps you stuck mentally and physically
Cold plunges every morning at 5 am! No added fats in your diet! 12,000 steps per day! It’s easy to take things to the extreme in health and wellness in an attempt to feel good. But this extreme approach often backfires and doesn’t bring us the vitality we are truly looking for. Today, I’m diving into why we have parts of us that crave extremes, perfection, and all or nothing thinking. These parts of us are often protecting us from something much deeper and when we bring love and healing to that pain, then we can live our lives with much more ease and flexibility. Listen to learn how! I discuss… Why so many women fall into orthorexic and extreme traps in health and wellness The trap of “all or nothing” thinking The physical health impacts of perfectionism and extremes The mental/emotional impact of black and white thinking The real reasons why you need to do things in an extreme/perfect way Real time parts work with these parts How perfectionism is protecting you from deeper pain Why do you think health routines have to be challenging to get results? How to heal and release all these parts so you can be FREE!

38: When you know what to do but it feels IMPOSSIBLE to do it in the moment: The missing link to healing for good and actually making changes in your life
You’ve read all the self-help books, listened to all the podcasts, and follow all the gurus on IG, but you still feel stuck when it comes to implementing what you know. It can be SO frustrating to be in a moment where you know what you “should” do, but you feel like you can’t get yourself to do it. Maybe you catch yourself over or under eating, but you feel like you can’t get yourself to make a different choice. Listen to this episode to learn why this happens and what you can do about it, so you can actually make choices that align with your goals. I dive into... Being a knowledge junkie but struggling to implement what you learn Why listening to podcasts, reading books, following people on IG won’t create permanent change without this one thing Why you can’t stop overeating, undereating, or being a perfectionist even though you know logically what to do The self-development trap that can keep you stuck Why you are so self-aware but still can’t change your “bad” habits How do habits impact your life? What is a counter desire and why you must bring it out of your subconscious?
