Hormones are a complex and important topic so I was grateful to have the opportunity to interview America's Holistic Gynecologist, Dr. Shawn Tassone for the My Child Will Thrive Podcast. I invited Dr. Tassone to share his six-step approach to women’s hormonal imbalances called SHINES and more about his brand new book, “The Hormone Balance Bible.” As Moms under a lot of stress supporting our children to thrive, Dr. Tassone reminds us that “normal isn’t always normal” and while tests and doctors may tell you otherwise, listening to your own body is always the most important.
If you’re curious to learn more about female hormonal imbalances from the best of the best, this episode with Dr. Tassone is full of takeaways that’ll help you on your own journey.

Robin and I dove into the many helpful takeaways I had from her book, “Heal Your Child from the Inside Out: The 5-Element Way to Nurturing Healthy, Happy Kids” and how the use of acupressure can change the way you look at your child’s health.

Say what? Books Over Blogs to Build Your Knowledge? You heard me. Learning from books beats blog learning any day. It’s true. Every time I write a blog post, I try to squeeze in as much information as possible to be both concise and complete. It's hard. In order to keep my post lengths easily consumable, I sometimes need to leave details out. That being said, blogs can be the catalyst for change. A blog post can inspire a new direction that you may never had learned elsewhere. However, your best bet is to use blogs to introduce you to new information and then take that learning further by finding the right books. The experience of reading a book enhances your knowledge and often is just what you’ll need to take action.

The Book That Kickstarted My Childs Recovery. Probably like you, I have read many books on how to recover my child. Early on, when looking for answers to my daughter’s health issues, I didn’t know where to start because my daughter’s signs and symptoms didn’t really fit into any diagnostic box, so I was left on my own to figure it out. The one diagnosis we did eventually receive around the age of five was dyspraxia. Dyspraxia only accounted for a few of her symptoms, however, and most of the interventions were speech- and occupational therapy-based (which we pursued vigorously for several years and made gains as a result). Than there was The Book That Kickstarted My Childs Recovery.
One day, during a regular Google search for “dyspraxia,” I came across a book that stood out from all the others: Gut and Psychology Syndrome (GAPS), Natural Treatment for: Dyspraxia, Autism, ADD, Dyslexia, ADHD, Depression and Schizophrenia by Dr. Natasha Campbell-Mcbride MD, MMedSCi (neurology), MMedSci (nutrition) and mom of a child she recovered from autism with the GAPS Nutritional Protocol she developed. This book was different. It taught me that these conditions could be reversed or significantly improved through diet and nutrients and that they were medical in nature. It gave me hope and scared me at the same time. (more…)
