Episode 57: Dr. Serena Goldstein on the Connection Between Stress and Hormones

May 18, 2020

During this pandemic, I’ve really been enjoying touching base with some of my previous guests who have relevant wisdom to share. In today’s episode I’m chatting with repeat guest Dr. Serena Goldstein, a Naturopathic Doctor who specializes in hormone health and the mind-body approach to hormone balance and weight loss. Through individualized treatment plans, Dr. Serena offers her patients the necessary tools to help them feel empowered and understanding of their own self.

 

I appreciate Dr. Serena’s holistic approach to her practice and have learned so much from her. Here are some of my favorite takeaways from my chat with her:

•     Our hormones are affected by stress just as our response to stress is affected by our hormones.
•     When it comes to our hormonal health, it’s important to achieve balance, and to remember that that balance changes at different times within our life cycle.
•     Spirituality plays an integral role in our overall health and well-being.
•     It’s important to love and understand your individual evolution and where you come from because it has brought you to this point in life.
•     Our healing journey is never linear, so learn to trust yourself and the universe.
