473. Trauma Is Causing Autoimmunity

Author: Almost 30 June 17, 2024 Duration: 13:04
In today’s episode, Lindsey is joined by Dr. Sara Szal Gottfried MD, Director of Precision Medicine at the Marcus Institute of Integrative Health at Thomas Jefferson University, and multiple New York Times bestselling author, to journey into the world of psychedelic medicine and autoimmunity. Ahead, Dr. Gottfried shares her personal battle with autoimmune disease and the methods she used to heal, including an elimination diet and other innovative therapies. She also points to childhood and transgenerational trauma as key factors of our present-day health. Dr. Gottfried helps us understand how stress impacts the endocrine system and urges us to consider alternative treatments, including breathwork and psychedelic-assisted therapy, which you can read more about in her new book, THE AUTOIMMUNE CURE.

Finding this space might feel like a happy accident, but there's a reason you're here. Morning Microdose, from the team at Almost 30, is a daily practice designed to replace that initial, often mindless, scroll through your phone with something that actually nourishes you. We recognize how vulnerable our thoughts are in those first waking moments, and how frequently we surrender that time to digital noise instead of our own intention. This podcast offers a concise, sub-ten-minute experience crafted to consciously prime your mind, body, and spirit for whatever the day holds. Each episode weaves together perspectives from education, culture, fitness, and holistic health, creating a short but potent blend of ideas for self-improvement. You'll hear reflections on societal trends, practical wellness tips, and thoughtful insights that challenge the usual morning routine. It's about making those first few minutes count, setting a tone of awareness and purpose that can ripple through your entire day. Tune in and discover how a small, consistent dose of mindful content can fundamentally shift your morning-and by extension, your outlook.
