The secret power of your hormones, energetics, and self-healing - with Poornima Vamsi

Untethered with Jen Liss

What was the pivotal moment that led you down a journey of self-healing?
In today's episode, I dive into my own personal health and healing journey with Poornima Vamsi, who shares her own. Together, we unravel insights on the often-neglected impact of hormonal imbalances and energetics on women's health.
Poornima came to her own expertise in healing when two unrelated, but huge events rocked her world
1. Her hair started falling out in clumps
2. Her mom was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer (and she lived halfway across the world)
When "traditional" medicine gave no answers or hope, Poornima set out on a quest to heal herself and and mother. (Spoiler alert: She did it!)
In this conversation, we discuss the power of listening to ourselves, exploring "untethered" healing modalities, and aligning with our body's natural rhythms through reflective practices such as journaling and breathwork. All of this as Poornima explains the role energetics and our hormones physically impact the body and our health.
The conversation unfurls the potential of holistic healing in nurturing not just the body, but the soul too. We go into the tough choices women face when balancing personal aspirations with familial obligations, and explore the cultural conditioning of women as natural caregivers and the cascading benefits of self-care on our families' health.
MEET POORNIMA VAMSI
I have struggled with Thyroid for 5 years, taking every single day medicine on empty stomach and then waiting for 30 mins to eat/drink something. I have also gone through post-partum depression, ankylosing spondylitis, plantar fasciitis - taken steroids to reduce pain and was frustrated living a life where I also weighed 90kgs/188 pounds.
I knew there had to be a way out. My turning point majorly was when my mum was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer overnight and was bed ridden. It is then that I researched, studied, certified and implemented my learnings to reverse my hormonal imbalances which allowed me to go off Thyroid medication, stopped taking steroids, reversed ankylosing spondylitis and plantar fasciitis and dropped a whopping 30kgs. It is mission that 'every woman deserves to live life medication free so that she can do more for herself and her loved ones'
