Episode 72 - Living in Rhythm: Embracing Presence, Cycles & Circadian Wisdom with Circadian Health Naturopath Jessica Brosnan
So many of us are living out of sync with our natural inclinations, leaving us exhausted, unwell, and disconnected. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Each of us has the ability to realign with our innate rhythms.
In this episode, Circadian Health Naturopath Jessica Brosnan and I explore how tuning into our natural cycles can transform the way we live and mother.
Jess shares her own journey from disconnection to a life shaped by presence, peace, and surrender, and how these simple yet powerful practices have reshaped her wellbeing.
We dive into the relationship between menstrual and lunar cycles, and how embracing these rhythms cultivates compassion, clarity, and energetic flow, especially in motherhood. We also explore circadian rhythms, and the profound role natural light plays in our physical, mental, and spiritual health.
Jess and I chat about:
- The power of presence, peace, and surrender as daily intentions for a more grounded life.
- How menstrual and moon cycles influence energy, mood, and productivity, and how to mother or live in harmony with them
- Why the moon’s phases matter for letting go, setting intentions, and maintaining energetic flow
- How modern lifestyles and indoor living can confine our nervous systems and create stagnation
- What the circadian rhythms are
- The role of natural morning light in regulating hormones like serotonin and melatonin for mood, metabolism, and sleep.
- Practical tips for evening routines including using blue-blocking lamps, dimmed lighting, and connection to nature to wind down effectively
- Meditation for presence and grounding
