Jill Crista, ND: A Conversation About PANDAS and PANS | The Healing Grove Podcast

10/16/23 • 58 min

This week I would like you to meet Dr. Jill Crista.
Dr. Crista is a pioneering naturopathic doctor, best-selling author, devoted educator, and creative innovator. Her superpower is to make complex medical concepts simple and digestible for the average person, and having been on the other side of her talks and teaching for the past few years, I can personally attest to this superpower.
Dr. Jill’s passion is to elevate the well-being of the planet by elevating the well-being of her inhabitants. Her books, memberships, and online courses support folks looking for concrete steps to conquer their own health challenges, and in that regard, I really feel we are kindred spirits.
Dr. Jill focuses on conditions that cause injury to the brain and nervous system, including mold, vector borne infections such as Lyme, and the debilitating autoimmunity that can develop from these exposures, called PANDAS and PANS.
She has now turned her efforts to supporting children and teens struggling with PANDAS and PANS. As a mother of children affected by PANS, she has combined the knowledge gained through her clinical and personal experience into an indispensable book titled A Light In The Dark for PANDAS and PANS.

Anne Van de Water: True Self Mastery | The Healing Grove Podcast

I am over the moon this week to introduce you to a new friend: Anne Van de Water.
About a decade ago, I found my way onto Anne Van de Water's mailing list. My sister, Bethany, had been on a retreat of some kind with Anne, and she suggested I follow her newsletter for regular blasts of high-vibe positivity and goofy, heart-centered, down-to-earth advice for spiritual seekers. That all sounded pretty good to me, and let me tell you: Anne Van de Water did not disappoint! I have followed her journey ever since, and when I started a podcast, I secretly hoped that Anne would accept my request out of the blue to sit with me for an interview. And it finally happened!
Anne is a life coach, a yoga teacher, a spiritual mentor, and the founder of True Self Mastery and Wellness, where she helps her clients to align with their true selves, and achieve their potential. Her mission aligns closely with mine, and can be summed up in her words: "We need you and we need your gifts."
