Wondering what lies at the intersection of your gut health, diet, and overall wellbeing? Join us as we decode this with Reneè Barash, the Tummy Whisperer, a certified digestive health coach who has made it her mission to help people understand the myriad connections between gut health and facets of our life including sleep patterns, skin conditions, and hormonal balance. We delve into the possible role a Western diet and genetically modified foods play on our bodies and underline the significance of a clean lifestyle for a healthier gut. Whatever that means for you. Next, we tackle an age-old question: what is the relationship between our mind and our digestive health? The answer might surprise you! We discuss the importance of a balanced diet, but also highlight how our minds and even our emotions can influence gut health. In a fascinating twist, we also explore the role of sound and energy in healing and relaxation; with a few simple tips. Reneé takes a very personalized approach to discover the right path each person needs to optimize their body systems. She encourages the opportunity to look beyond traditional medical tests and consider other factors like stress and diet, in the quest for achieving a balanced state.Lastly, we take a deep dive into the more intricate aspects of health. We discuss how our bodies hold onto trauma and negative emotions, and how that impacts our physical health. We also confront the challenge of navigating through the overwhelming amount of dietary information and debunking a few myths that are doing the rounds. Reneé emphasizes the power of intuition in health and the need to experiment with different foods to discover what works best for us.
