16: Brenda Rosenfeld – Stress, Adrenal Fatigue and Healing

June 01, 2016

It’s a huge honour to have Brenda Rosenfeld on the show to chat about a topic really personal to me.
Brenda Rosenfeld for the last 18 years has been a Nutritionist, Naturopath and Herbalist, following on from 10 years as an Intensive Care nurse, and she is a phenomenal Nutritional Coach and Wellness Mentor. She has spent over 5 years lecturing and supervising students at Nature Care College, has been a speaker at over 25 events and works from a number of clients across Sydney.
Brenda focuses on the mind-body connection and the way our body reflects everything that we think and feel. She bridges the divide between orthodox medicine, nutrition and naturopathy because her experience has shown how strongly these all work together.
Along with her wealth of knowledge and experience Brenda utilises a number of testing tools like live blood screening, bio-impedance cellular age and health testing and food intolerance testing to help identify deep body inflammation, stress and fatigue that may be contributing to particular health issues.
I absolutely love this woman. Brenda is such a beautiful person and just hearing her voice is like a big hug and soothing cup of turmeric latte for me.
As you may have already heard me talk about, I had Adrenal Fatigue, and in some respect am still recovering, and it took a huge toll on my health and life. Brenda was one of my practitioners and I just loved the way she approached my health, not just for her professional approach but her heart approach.
But if you are thinking this episode isn’t for you because you don’t have Adrenal Fatigue, then please still hit play because Brenda talks so much deeper to so many issues we face with stress in our life, and lets be honest – we are all a lot more stressed these days an ever before. Brenda also beautifully talks about mind-body connection and the role emotions have on our health and our recovery. There is something in this episode for everyone, I assure you. And I really hope you love it.
Questions we cover:
What is adrenal fatigue? How is it different from chronic fatigue syndrome?
What tests does someone need to have done to diagnose Adrenal Fatigue?
Why does mainstream medicine miss this diagnosis?
What can happen when the body is subjected to constant high levels of stress?
What is the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous system and what role do they play in our health?
What is homeopathy? How does it work?
What impact do emotions have on health?
How can people best manage stress do ensure they don’t get to adrenal fatigue or support themselves through adrenal fatigue? What should people be considering about diet and exercise?
What Brenda is most grateful for?
Her relationship with herself, her health and that she can still dance.
What Brenda thinks needs to change in the world?
We need to love ourselves, be gentle and know that body image and materialistic things are not the important things in life.
Advice Brenda wants her clients to know?
That they can heal.
