Episode 003: 5 Pillars of Balance

Episode 227 of my Curate Your Health Podcast is out! Link below.

 

Dr. Sheilagh Maguiness is here today to talk about skin care. As tweens enter puberty it is important that they know how to have healthy hygiene, with both body and skin care habits. There are big differences between girls' and boys' hygiene. It is important that we educate and show our tweens and teens how to care for themselves. Mental health and depression can be tied into low self esteem from skin issues. Acne can be a result of hormonal changes, genetic components, and how your immune system responds to bacteria. We can help our kids by having them wash their face twice a day with a gentle cleanser, and make sure to keep the products simple, hypoallergenic, and fragrance free. If you are looking for a local pediatric dermatologist, you can find them here: www.pedsderm.net.     

 

Dr. Sheilagh Maguiness is a double board-certified Dermatologist and Pediatric Dermatologist with a busy practice in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She currently serves as the President of the Society for Pediatric Dermatology. She is a mom to two tween boys and co-founder of Stryke Club, a personal care brand made just for boys. Dr. Sheilagh is passionate about education and prioritizes teaching with every patient encounter. She strives to educate the next generation of dermatologists and pediatricians in her practice, and teaches families and caregivers through content created for national pediatric and dermatological societies and her social media presence.

She’s a board-certified pediatric dermatologist with a busy clinical practice and a passion for teaching. She is devoted to educating patients, families, and primary care providers about childhood skin conditions.

 

Through Stryke Club, Dr. Sheilagh helped develop a personal care brand to address the needs of boys in particular. Along with her Stryke Club partners, she set out to fill the gap in boys’ skincare. The team found the perfect combination of mild surfactants (ie: cleansers) and a common, effective ingredient (ie: sodium hypochlorite) to help fight dirt and bacteria – and put them together to make a cleanser specifically for boys.

Tess Jewell-Larsen is here today to talk about how she empowers women from feeling exhausted to finding balance. It is so easy to get caught up in our thoughts. She focuses on where these women are lacking or overdoing something, and she tries to help them find one thing they can do for themselves to get to a balanced state. It is important to feel all emotions and allow them to be there, and not push them away. When we don’t process these emotions, it can cause unease. Processing can be done through many different avenues, such as: gardening, movement, talking, and drawing. We need to be fully aware and find what nourishes us. By making tiny changes in our lives, it can affect how we show up. 

Tess Jewell-Larsen empowers women professionals, entrepreneurs and juggling-it-all’ers to go from exhausted and overwhelmed to balanced and thriving. Tess is a certified mindfulness coach, somatic healer and a Yoga Therapist in training.

Adele Spraggon is here to ask our listeners if your patterns of behavior are continuously getting in the way and stopping you from getting the things you want most in your life? She says forget commitment, willpower, positive-thinking, mindset techniques, or better goal-setting. These approaches are a thing of the past. We were told to use our mind to fix our problems, but this is simply not the case. Current brain research proves that you are not in control of your choices. Instead, your decisions are the result of decision-making patterns that were created early in life and that continue to control your life. To take different actions, you need to change your patterns. That means no blame in your past, no shame in your future, and nothing to fix in your present. There are only patterns and patterns can be changed. She wrote an award-winning book that provides the necessary knowledge and step-by-step instructions to change any of your behaviors, actions, or beliefs – permanently – in less than six weeks.

 

Adele Spraggon is an award-winning author, thought leader, international trainer and a fearless speaker. She has been awarded the 2020 Woman of Inspiration Award and in 2021 she was recognized as the Top Behavioural Expert of the Year.

Dr. Valerie Cacho is here to discuss how to get a better night’s sleep. As we get older, we have less REM and less deep sleep and more light sleep. We need all 4 stages of sleep and if you are not sleeping well, your mood can be affected. She recommends reserving the last hour of your day for yourself to slow your brain waves so you can sleep better. She suggests slowing your breath, meditation, taking a bath, listening to music, or journaling for better sleep. One practice that she discusses is using your five senses. Think of somewhere you want to be, somewhere where you are at rest, and what are five things you are seeing, four things you are feeling, three things you are hearing, two things you smell and one thing you can taste.  

Valerie Cacho, MD, is an integrative sleep medicine specialist. Her interests and expertise include diagnosing and treating medical sleep disorders, women's sleep concerns, mind-body approaches to insomnia, self-compassion training, clinical hypnotherapy, and promoting sleep health and wellness.

Medical school and a lifelong history of reading and studying about diet, exercise, and supplements and their relationship to good health.
