Listen "How Stress Rewires Hormones (and What Actually Helps): Mind–Body Strategies That Work — Faith Nelson ND & Amoree Wilde ND"

Episode Synopsis








On The Mindful Journey with host Sana, naturopathic duo Faith Nelson ND and Amoree Wilde ND unpack how chronic stress reshapes hormone balance and shows up as sleep disruptions, skin issues, thyroid slowdowns, and brain fog. We dig into mindset, breathwork, and practical habit shifts; how men and women experience stress differently; and what to do when you’re stuck in the stress–sleep–hormone loop. The conversation is direct, myth-aware, and focused on safe, do-able changes you can discuss with your clinician. Keywords: stress hormones, women’s health, perimenopause, menopause, cortisol, thyroid, mindset, breathwork, naturopathic, herbal support, Fiducia Apothecary, holistic health.
About the guests:
Faith Nelson ND & Amoree Wilde ND are a mother–daughter team—both certified naturopathic doctors and master herbalists—who combine generational wisdom with modern practice. Their work emphasizes education, nervous-system regulation, and gentle, evidence-informed lifestyle supports. They also create small-batch tinctures through Fiducia Apothecary and consult with clients remotely.
Key takeaways:

Medical Disclaimer: The following takeaways are for educational purposes only. They do not substitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult your licensed healthcare provider before making changes to your health regimen.

 

Stress is not just a feeling; it shifts hormone patterns and daily function. Aim to change your relationship to stress rather than “eliminate” it.

Men and women can respond differently to stressors. Personalize routines (nutrition timing, training, sleep) with professional guidance.


Short-term stress can be useful (alertness, performance). The issue is living in chronic “fight-or-flight,” which disrupts sleep, digestion, skin, and weight patterns.


Foundational resets beat quick fixes: consistent meals, steady sleep windows, light morning movement, and breathwork to downshift the nervous system.


Breathing and simple affirmations are low-risk tools to lower perceived stress and support better choices through the day.


If you’re in a stress–sleep loop, start with one lever: regular wind-down time, screens off, room cool and dark, gentle breathing before bed.


Supplements and herbs can be supportive for some individuals. Use them to complement—not replace—clinical care and lifestyle basics.


“Cleanses” and hormone products are not one-size-fits-all. Always review plans with a qualified healthcare professional, especially if you have a diagnosis or take medications.


Education matters: learn how stress, sleep, and blood sugar interact so you can spot early signs and course-correct sooner.


Progress is practical: pick one change you can keep for 30 days; then add the next.
