Could your anxiety be coming from somewhere other than your thoughts?

Most people think anxiety starts in the mind—but what if your gut is playing a much bigger role than you realize?

This Friday on the Lunar Counseling Podcast, I'm joined by Dani Tschudy, LPC, a therapist and functional nutrition practitioner, for a fascinating conversation about the gut-brain connection and how nutrition, inflammation, hormones, and lifestyle habits can impact mental health.

We discuss:
✨ Why gut health matters for anxiety and mood
✨ The connection between nutrition and emotional well-being
✨ Common wellness myths and quick fixes
✨ Small changes that can make a big difference
✨ Why healing often requires looking at the whole person

If you've ever struggled with anxiety, brain fog, low energy, or feeling like something is "off" despite doing all the right things, this episode is for you.

Coming this Friday to the Lunar Counseling Podcast.

Your body remembers everything — even the things your mind tries to forget.

In this episode of the Lunar Counseling Podcast, I’m joined by Laura Anderson, certified yoga instructor and breathwork facilitator, for a powerful conversation about trauma, nervous system healing, emotional release, and the body’s innate ability to heal.

Your body holds onto more than you think.

Stress. Anxiety. Trauma. Emotional shutdown. Chronic tension.

In this week’s episode of the Lunar Counseling Podcast, I sit down with breathwork facilitator Laura Anderson to explore how trauma becomes stored in the nervous system — and how breathwork, sound healing, and nervous system regulation can help reconnect the mind and body.

We talk about:
• why most people don’t actually know how to breathe deeply
• how emotions become trapped in the body
• nervous system healing and regulation
• breathwork for anxiety and overwhelm
• emotional release and healing through the body
• the connection between sound, breath, and trauma recovery

This conversation was grounding, validating, and honestly incredibly powerful.

Coming this week to the Lunar Counseling Podcast.
