The Live Well Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

For those of us who deal with digestion issues like heartburn, indigestion, bloating, constipation, autoimmunity, and nutrient deficiencies make sure to stay tuned to this episode for a breathwork activity that you can do prior to eating. 

Sometimes our digestive issues can arise when our bodies are not ready to receive food, and so this breathing exercise will help to support your body and digestive organs. I'd love to hear from you - let me know if this exercise helps you and what you normally do to support your digestion. 

In this episode we'll be talking about giving ourselves permission to rest, why we have so much resistance to resting, and how it can actually feel really scary to just slow down.

Rest doesn’t necessarily have to mean taking a day or week off but instead is something that we can simply build into small moments in our daily lives. I also share common beliefs that tend to hinder many of us from finding rest and accepting that we actually deserve to rest. This is one of the most important pillars of healing that I do in my work with my clients and a big way we start to create a life that feels healing, where our interventions can take root.

On this episode of the Live Well Podcast, I’ll be speaking with sisters Lauren Lee-Crane & Catherine Lee, founders of Semaine Health, about their experience with endometriosis and reducing period pain. Both Lauren and Catherine have had experiences with endometriosis throughout their lives, and they’re on a mission to normalize the conversation about periods and period pains. This is the reason why they wanted to start their company, Semaine Health, a health & wellness company that takes women’s pain seriously. Their first product which is natural, plant-based, and rigorously tested, helps empower women by specifically addressing period pain. Today we’ll hear more about their story and learn more about the conventional and holistic tools that have helped them along their journey. To learn more, check out semainehealth.com.

In this episode of The Live Well Podcast, I have special guest Murlene Joseph joining me. Murlene is a registered nurse, board-certified holistic nurse coach, and the founder of Myrrh Wellness. We talk about the importance of mindset on your healing journey.

When Murlene was diagnosed with chronic illness, she had a hard time figuring out what to do and where to go to start feeling better. This inspired Murlene to start her coaching business so she can help others who are navigating similar situations and to teach others how to cultivate self-acceptance and self-love in order to heal.

In today’s episode, we explore the functional timeline which helps identify the root cause of a disease and how your history influences this. This is a very important tool, in my opinion, which is why I take all my clients through this at the very onset of our work together. We also talk about the ATMs or the antecedents, triggers, and mediators of health. 

I’d like to hear your insights regarding your own functional timeline, and if you’re confused and having a difficult time moving forward, I’d like to hear that as well. I’m always here to help you - that is my passion. You can check out my free 30-minute discovery call at christinatidwell.com if you're looking for support and guidance.

In this episode, I talk about wellness burnout which I define as a state of increased stress and overwhelm that comes from the constant pursuit of health and wellness practices. We have good intentions, and then we start to feel like we need to do all of the things all of the time. So, if you’ve gone from bringing in helpful, supportive practices to feeling like your daily wellness routines are a chore or something that’s becoming really overwhelming then you may be dealing with wellness burnout. 

This mini-training will share the importance of having a toolkit and a few questions that you can use as soon as you feel that your body needs it. Stay tuned!

Today I’ll talk about how I support my energy and productivity while working from home. To me, this is a very timely topic as most of us have shifted to a work-from-home setup over the past few months. I made this transition myself and had to create new habits & routines when I went from working in a hospital as an RN to taking on this business and work full-time from home. 

In this episode, I share some tips that revolve around personal boundaries, routines, transitions, and activities that will help you support yourself and your energy. Especially if working from home is feeling overwhelming, this episode is for you. 

In today’s episode, I share with you the things that I do on a daily basis to keep myself healthy - physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s been a while since I shared what I do for my health on a daily basis! Those who have been following me will know that I never recommend anything to a client that I haven’t personally tested.

I’m going to go through my favorite healthcare routines that have stuck with me over the years. So stay tuned to get a glimpse of what my day looks like, from meditation to nutrition, and what I do to wind down to sleep.

This episode of The Live Well Podcast is a great discussion with Kelsey Cohrt about effective meal preparation. She is the founder of Northwest Health Coaching which helps people incorporate healthy eating habits and starting feeling good. 

We talk about how you can feed yourself, and of course, prepare meals in a straightforward manner. Kelsey also shares her own food experience, the challenges, and her wins while on this journey.

This is such a very important topic to discuss especially now when we are all asked to stay at home. We have all the time in the world to prepare our meals, right? Well, not all the time. Tune into this episode for more, and get to know Kelsey and her business. Check out www.northwesthealthcoaching.com.

How do you feel when you wake up in the morning? Rested? Content? Anxious? Stressed? Overwhelmed?

The morning is our golden opportunity to tune into where we are at in the present moment and consciously decide how we want to feel that day. One of my mentors calls it “deciding which bus to get on” in the morning that’s going to take you down a certain path in your day.

Reclaiming the morning and deciding how you currently feel and how you WANT to feel before anyone else gets to tell you is the best practice I know for reducing stress and coming into the present moment. Tune in to this episode for tips on how to reclaim your morning to reduce your stress!
