Ep 144: How to Thoroughly Test Your Home for Mold and Mycotoxins With Brian Karr

1h 21m · Just Enjoy Health with Dr. Meghan Birt · 20 Sep 15:56

Living in a home that could be making you sick is a reality for a lot of people. It happened to me when we moved to our current house. My symptoms flared and my health crashed. Only to find out that a bacteria from our sump pump was making me sick. Listen more about that here.

Through my experience, I learned a lot about testing your house for mold and mycotoxins and what to look for. But I don't know it all. I brought in an expert in the field to interview today to give you a deep dive into testing your home to see if your home could be making you sick.

Brian Karr is a second generation indoor environmental consultant. He specializes in working with hypersensitive individuals with complex medical conditions. He knows how to test and remediate mold and mycotoxins in your home.

Ep. 153: Working with the natural rhythm of your body

Dr. Meghan shares how she read a book (Slow Productivity by Cal Newport) and how this book so deeply relates to the healing of the body.

And if we take Cal's 3 points and apply them to health, it is very profound!

  1. Do less
  2. Work with the natural rhthyms of the body
  3. There are times of push and times of rest

Let me know what you think after you listen to the episode!

Ep. 152: Are you lying to yourself about holistic health

In this episode we chat about how when you first got into holistic health you wanted to be healthier, take care of your body, and because you know holistic health creates health and the traditional medical model doesn't.

But somehow you ended up stressed, fearful, overwlemed and all consumed with holistic health. And you want to know how did you get here and how do you get out but still follow this natural health lifestyle.

This episode is here to help you.

You can have knowledge, information and use wisdom on how to create balance in your health.

We talk about

  1. Balancing holistic health and the western medical model
  2. Only worrying what you have agency over
  3. Simplifying (and how you can do that in this complex health world)
  4. Finding more fun and joy
  5. What is motivating your health choices (I get passionate about this one becuase this is something I have recently discovered for myself).

Are you lying to yourself thinking that you are in this lovely balanced place and healing but you're really stressed out and controlled by fear in your health decisions? This podcast is to help you figure that out.

Ep. 151: Mini episodes are here... Voxer Chats with Dr. Meghan

Hey friend-

I haven't put out a podcast in a long time and I thought this chapter of podcasting was over because they take so much time.

But sometimes we neeed to clear our mind and ask if we can do things differently. And that is where this podcast idea was born.

I want to put out mini episodes, like you and I are chatting on Voxer. They will be short and sweet (15-25 minutes) and will allow me to go into a little more details versus IG stories. And you can listen on your phone anywhere and play it on 1.25x speed.

Let me know what you think and what topics you want me to share about simplifying your health!
