If you think about all the foods we eat, products we use, air we breathe and water we drink just in a day– there are so many opportunities for toxins to enter into our bodies. 

In fact, by the time you’re born you’ve already been exposed to 150 chemicals– you’re born with it in your umbilical blood. When we look back at the progression of toxins and how many more there are nowadays that have been overlooked, we see a correlation with chronic disease and autoimmunity.

From products we eat, use, clean with and put on our bodies, we’re getting totally blasted with toxins. However, this IS fixable with some effort and knowledge. 

Dr. Wendie Trubow– an expert on how to reduce the amount of toxins we’re exposed to in our day-to-day– joins me in this podcast to provide everything we need to know to minimize our toxic load and reduce exposure. 

We’ll discuss the impact everyday toxins can have on our hormones and our bodies as a whole. And she gives us so many great ideas that we can implement right away to start minimizing the toxins in our homes and in our lives. It’s essential we’re aware of toxins that could be compounding our systems and leading to chronic disease. And more importantly, how we can gently start to remove them over time. 

Plus, we go through some self-care detox strategies to help rid your body of toxins while improving your overall physical and mental health. 

From foods to household products, to what water you drink or how much you sleep– you won’t want to miss all the details Dr. Wendie Trubow goes through to help rid our bodies of toxins and promote our well being! So, listen here for the tips you need to make progress towards a healthier, more detoxed version of you.

EPISODE SUMMARY
In the ever-changing world of technology, we’ve grown so much as a society with unlimited access to information. But as you and I both know, often times this ability to search for anything, anytime– from the palm of our hands– can be taken advantage of. 
How often have we been told generation after generation that our patience and attention span is declining? We know it's true. Even I’m guilty of hopping onto social media or my smartphone when I’m supposed to be doing a million other things. 
But did you know– the average attention span back in 2004 was roughly 2 and a half minutes… and today, the modern attention span has declined to 47 seconds. That’s how much our population has changed in less than 2 decades. And this rapidly changing mental capacity certainly has implications on our overall health. 
In this podcast, attention expert Dr. Gloria Mark is here to shed light on the connection between constantly shifting our focus and attention all over the place– and the eventual burnout that comes from it. 
Dr. Gloria Mark has been studying the effects of technology on our attention span for years, so she’s here to educate us on how detrimental certain aspects of technology can be to our mental state– and to our overall health. 
She talks about some of the most popular social media apps, and how these can quickly lead to burnout in your day-to-day– without you even realizing it. 
But don’t worry, she goes through some much-needed recommendations that we can all implement to help us reduce the burden society today has put on our minds and bodies because of our multitasking efforts. 
You won’t want to miss the strategies she discusses, and how important it is to keep our focus on the present and not jump around from one thing to the next. Recognizing this distraction is the first step to making the change to preserve our mental capacity, therefore improving our overall quality of life! So listen here, and start making simple changes to reduce burnout and feel your best.
