HELLO angels and WELCOME back to part 2 of this conversation with the amazing Karinda Wholistix.
If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, I'd definitely recommend starting there first, as we covered the foundations of circadian health, why light is one of the most powerful inputs for your body, and simple ways to start supporting your circadian rhythm 🌞
In Part 2, we take things a step further and explore how your circadian rhythm influences your hormones, fertility, metabolism, liver health and mitochondria. We also dive into the connection between circadian health and conditions like PCOS, why light is such a powerful regulator of hormone production, and how small changes to your daily habits can have a huuuuge impact on your overall health.
Whether you're navigating PCOS, hormone imbalances, irregular cycles, PMS, fertility challenges, low energy or simply want to optimise your health, this conversation is packed with practical, science-backed information that you can start applying today. WOO!
In this episode we chat about:
- How your circadian rhythm influences your hormones, menstrual cycle and fertility
- Why circadian health can play an important role in supporting conditions like PCOS
- The connection between light, your mitochondria and hormone production
- Why supporting your circadian rhythm is often a missing piece before reaching for more supplements (!!!)
- The role your liver plays in hormone balance, detoxification and overall metabolic health
- Why artificial light at night may be impacting your hormones, fertility and long-term health
- Practical ways to support your circadian rhythm if you're a shift worker or spend most of your day indoors
- Why getting outside throughout the day can have such a profound impact on your energy and wellbeing
- The emerging research around mushrooms, mitochondrial health and longevity
- Karinda's daily non-negotiables and the habits she prioritises to support her health
This episode is a beautiful reminder that supporting your hormones doesn't always have to start with another supplement. Sometimes the most powerful changes are the simplest ones - getting outside, seeing the sunrise, reducing artificial light at night and working with your biology instead of against it.
