    The Biology of Deep Restoration: Understanding DSIP with Dr Lara May

    What if healing isn't about doing more—but about creating the conditions for the body to finally repair? In this Wellness Illuminated episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May explores the fascinating world of nervous system peptides, with a special focus on DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) and its role in deep restoration, stress recovery, and healing. This conversation dives into why the nervous system is the master regulator of sleep, hormone balance, inflammation, immune function, and repair—and why no healing protocol can truly succeed when the body remains stuck in survival mode. You'll learn how chronic stress shifts physiology away from restoration, why nervous system regulation must come first, and how peptides like DSIP may support the body's natural ability to rest, recover, and heal. If you've been struggling with burnout, poor sleep, chronic stress, or feeling like your body just can't seem to recover, this episode offers a powerful new perspective on what healing really requires. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026.

    The Biology of Repair: How BPC-157 & TB-500 Support Healing with Dr Lara May

    In this Wellness Illuminated episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May explores the fascinating biology of tissue healing and repair through the lens of two of the most talked-about peptides in functional medicine: BPC-157 and TB-500. This conversation goes beyond symptom management and optimization to explore how the body actually heals at a physiological level. Dr. Lara breaks down how these peptides function as signaling molecules that support tissue repair, inflammation resolution, gut integrity, vascular communication, and recovery from chronic stress and injury. You’ll learn why peptides are not “magic,” but intelligent messengers that depend on the body’s internal environment and responsiveness in order to work effectively. This is a grounded, science-informed conversation designed to bring clarity and understanding to regenerative healing and the body’s natural repair systems. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026.

    From Shape-Shifting to Self-Worth: Rediscovering Your Authentic Self with Tara Wiskow

    What happens when you spend your entire life trying to become who others need you to be? In this episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May sits down with intuitive healer, energy coach, and life reinvention expert Tara Wiskow for a deeply vulnerable conversation about identity, self-worth, emotional healing, and transformation. After years of shape-shifting to gain love and acceptance, Tara found herself disconnected from her true self—struggling with shame, self-rejection, emotional pain, and eventually weighing 338 pounds. Following years of inner battles and multiple suicide attempts, one life-changing moment shifted everything: learning to love herself instead of punishing herself. Through mirror work, self-compassion, energetic healing, and identity transformation, Tara went on to naturally lose 220 pounds and completely reinvent her life from the inside out. This episode is a powerful reminder that true healing begins when we stop abandoning ourselves and start embracing who we truly are. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026. All rights reserved.

    GLP-1 Explained: Beyond Weight Loss and Into Whole-Body Healing with Dr Lara May

    GLP-1 peptides are everywhere right now—but there’s far more to this conversation than weight loss. In this Wellness Illuminated episode of Light Body Radio, Dr. Lara May explores the deeper role GLP-1 plays in the body as a powerful communication bridge between the gut, brain, metabolism, hormones, inflammation pathways, and nervous system signaling. This episode breaks down what GLP-1 actually is, how it naturally functions inside the body, and why these peptides are being used in both conventional and functional medicine settings. Dr. Lara also discusses why GLP-1 therapies are not appropriate for everyone, how they impact satiety and blood sugar regulation, and why true metabolic healing goes far beyond simply losing weight. This is a grounded, science-informed conversation designed to bring clarity, education, and discernment to one of the biggest wellness topics today. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026.

    Healing Beyond Symptoms: The Six Frequencies That Restore the Body with Cindy Costley

    What if your symptoms aren’t the problem—but the body’s attempt to protect you? In this episode of LightBody Radio, Dr. Lara May sits down with Cindy Costley, founder of The Underlying Answers and creator of the EBD healing system, to explore a powerful new perspective on chronic illness and healing. After decades of severe allergies, environmental sensitivities, and life-altering health challenges, Cindy discovered that the body isn’t broken—it’s responding to unresolved stress, trauma, and a lack of internal safety. Through her work, she developed a framework centered on the six frequencies of human regulation to help the body reorganize and heal from the inside out. You’ll learn how nervous system regulation, emotional patterns, and energetic alignment all play a role in restoring health—beyond symptom management. If you’ve tried everything and still don’t feel well, this episode may shift how you understand healing entirely. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026. All rights reserved.

From receptor sensitivity to mitochondrial energy and the impact of chronic stress and inflammation, Dr. Lara breaks down the biological environment that determines whether peptides can actually do their job. This is a grounded, science-informed conversation designed to bring clarity, not hype—so you can better understand how to support your body at the cellular level. © Light Body Radio-Podcast, 2026.
