The Impact of Childhood Trauma and Strategies for Overcoming It with Alex Howard

Child: Welcome to my Mommy’s podcast. This episode is sponsored by BIOptimizers and specifically their Magnesium Breakthrough product, which I am a huge fan of. I’ve talked so much in the past 15 years about the importance of magnesium, and I really like their specific formula. We probably know that magnesium is one of the most important minerals for all aspects of health and that having low levels of magnesium can cause all kinds of issues. Magnesium is necessary in over 600 different biological reactions in your body. Yet over 80% of us don’t get enough of the minimum amount of magnesium we need from diet alone. This is partially because our soil lacks magnesium. It’s been depleted over the years. So, we’re simply not getting as much from food as we used to. And as I said, magnesium deficiency can increase risk of all kinds of diseases and keep you from performing optimally. It can also really negatively affect sleep, which then has rollover into so many areas of health. BIOptimizers Magnesium Breakthrough is the only supplement on the market that offers a full spectrum of all seven types of magnesium, specifically formulated to reach every tissue in your body and provide maximum health benefits and reverse low levels of magnesium, which might be causing issues for you. In their formula, you get all seven forms of magnesium, which can transform your stress and performance. I personally noticed that it seems to really reduce my stress level and I feel much more relaxed when I am getting magnesium regularly. This also has a beneficial impact on sleep, increasing both the rate at which we fall asleep and our level of deep sleep. Magnesium is necessary for a healthy functioning immune system and to maintain normal heart rhythm as well as to lower cortisol levels and keep stress hormones in check. Like I said, I’m a huge fan of magnesium. I think this form is one of the best on the market, and you can save 10% on it by going to bioptimizers.com/wellnessmama and using the code WellnessMama to save 10%. This podcast is brought to you by BonCharge and specifically their Sauna Blanket. I know you’ve heard me talk about the benefits of sauna before, and I’ve said that if this was a pill, I think everyone would take it because of the really well-researched benefits of sauna on everything from reduction of all-cause mortality, increased longevity, better cardiovascular markers. Sauna is, in general, considered an exercise mimetic, meaning that you get many of the same benefits like sweating, like cardiovascular function, and even lymphatic movement from using sauna regularly. But I know that often it’s hard to fit a sauna in a house, and saunas can be really, really pricey. And that’s why I’m so excited to see things like this sauna blanket entering the market. This can really heat up your wellness routine because you get all the benefits of a sauna, from detoxifying to better sleep to better skin. This is something I try to make a part of my regular routine at least several times a week. And the blanket makes it even easy to do, even if you don’t have a lot of space for a regular sauna, because you can simply pull out this sauna blanket and roll it out, turn up the heat, slip inside, and enjoy the benefits. Easy cleanup with a damp cloth. And then you can just roll it up and store it under a bed or in a closet. I’m a big fan of putting on a podcast or an audiobook and spending 30 to 45 minutes in the sauna. And it feels like a total brain reset and body reset. I love making this a regular part of my routine. You can check it out by going to boncharge.com/wellnessmama and using the code WellnessMama to save 20% on a sauna blanket.
