Thyroid healing: It's an inside job | Stacey Robbins | Ep 62
It would be so much easier if simply taking a pill would solve all of our thyroid woes. We ALL wish that was the answer. The hard reality is though that it's not. Yes, thyroid medication is helpful if you need it, but it's not the 'magic pill' we all wish it was.Instead, my guest on the show, Stacey Robbins says that YOU ARE THE MAGIC PILL YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR.Living with a thyroid condition is a lifelong journey - it's a process. What is it trying to teach you? Why do you have a thyroid condition? Why would it be an autoimmune thyroid condition and not just a hypothyroid one? You need to get good at asking questions.We need to be prepared to do the INSIDE work, to take responsibility for our actions (& inaction). We need to take loving actions and we need to be the leader in our own healing journey.Meet Stacey RobbinsStacey Robbins, CHC, RYT 200 is a Health and Mindset Coach, specializing in Hashimoto’s and is the award-winning Author of several books including You’re Not Crazy and You’re Not Alone: Losing the Victim, Finding Your Sense of Humor, and Learning to Love Yourself through Hashimoto’s.Connect with Stacey:www.staceyrobbins.comInstagram: @lovestaceyrobbinsFacebook The Girlfriends’ Guide to Hashimoto’s Group---------------Let’s Talk Thyroid is a podcast where we explore different aspects of living thyroid-friendly lifestyle positively & practically to help you thrive and not just survive.

Lynne's Thyroid Story | Ep 56
Lynne was diagnosed with Hashimoto's about 12 years ago. It was feeling depressed despite it being a very happy time of her life, unexplained weight gain and exhaustion that were her main symptoms. Fortunately she was diagnosed fairly easily and put on medication but after a year or so she didn't feel any better.Then began many years of research, reading, taking her health into her own hands, changing medication, diet and healing to the point where she has been off thyroid medication for a number of years.Lynne is a very fit and active woman - you'll find her most days walking the moors near her home in the UK or hacking through ice in her local pond to swim in the cold! Actually she has been able to reflect that her cold water swimming has probably been a key factor in keeping her thyroid healthy! I think she's a super ice-woman!Here are the key topics we cover:Being your own health advocate.Being prepared to do what's necessary to heal.T3 medication.Recovering with T3 by Paul Robinson and his Facebook group.Dietary changes (in particular gluten, sugar, dairy and unprocessed food).Cold water swimmingEssential oils and reducing chemicals around the home.-------------------Let’s Talk Thyroid is a podcast where we explore different aspects of living a healthy thyroid lifestyle positively & practically to help you thrive and not just survive.
