In this episode of Prescribing Lifestyle, I reflect on my recent experience at the Regenerate Health Retreat hosted by Dr. Max Gulhane and Paula in beautiful northern NSW.
It was a much-needed reset — and a powerful reminder of how nature, light, and rhythm can transform our wellbeing. From morning sun to cold plunges, nourishing food to mindful movement, this retreat was all about realigning with our circadian rhythm for optimal health.
✨ What we explore in this episode:
– How modern light exposure disrupts metabolism, sleep and hormones
– Why circadian rhythm is foundational to every system in the body
– The healing benefits of sunlight beyond just vitamin D
– What grounding and cold exposure do for inflammation and nervous system reset
– My daily shifts after the retreat: blue light blockers, bone broth, no coffee (yes, really!)
– Simple ways you can support your body’s internal clock — even with a busy schedule
This episode is packed with takeaways that anyone can try, no matter where you’re starting from. If you’re feeling tired, inflamed, or stuck in stress-mode, tuning in might give you the gentle nudge to reconnect with nature and your own rhythms again.
🎧 Listen now and let me know what resonated for you.
