Womb Wisdom, Addiction, & the Way of the Wounded Healer - Anja Robinson

Womb Wisdom, Addiction, & the Way of the Wounded Healer - Anja Robinson

IN THE INTRO:

  • Evolutionary health, symptoms as adaptations, why there's no such thing as the optimal diet, and why we didn't necessarily evolve to be healthy
  • One of our last remaining collective/ancestral rituals

IN THE INTERVIEW:

  • Why to start herbally & nutritionally preparing for your period at ovulation
  • Understanding nutritional needs throughout the menstrual cycle
  • Tracking your period
  • Coffee & chocolate for the cycling woman- good or bad?
  • Iron, blood, oxygen, and women
  • How Anja overcame six years of alcohol and drug abuse and built a healthy, healing life
  • We share our stories of growing up with an alcoholic parent, and of our mothers' deaths, and what it feels like when you get that phone call we all dread
  • A super important but always overlooked perspective on nutrient deficiency in addicts and the role of nutrition in recovery
  • It's never too late to change your path
  • When Anja found out about her German great-grandmother being the town mystic and Tarot reader, and how this ancestor's sensitivity has echoed down through the motherline
  • Food, drink, and herbs for winter nourishment
  • Carminitives: a simple, delicious, and healing class of herbal medicine that you already have in your kitchen
