One of Sakara’s Nine Pillars Of Nutrition, body intelligence is about honing your ability to listen and respond to your body’s needs through awareness, knowledge, and engagement. It’s a dynamic intersection of science and spirit, and an essential skill for feeling and showing up as your best at every stage of life.

We’re so excited to have Dr. Taz Bhatia back on the podcast to discuss the five life shifts every woman experiences, as chronicled in her best-selling book, The Hormone Shift. As a board-certified Integrative Medicine physician and wellness expert, a fellow of the University of Arizona Program in Integrative Medicine led by Dr. Andrew Weil, and the founder and CEO of her nationally recognized integrated medicine practice, CentreSpringMD, Dr. Taz serves patients holistically by pulling from multiple vantage points of functional, and integrative medicine spanning Western and Eastern modalities.

In this conversation, we get into how women’s major hormonal shifts mirror common social phases of life; why supporting our body intelligence through all of life’s phases requires breaking through culturally imposed boundaries and rebuilding connection with other women; and the steps we can take at every stage to nourish our body intelligence and set up our bodies, minds, and spirits for optimal vitality.
