About BeReleafed

BeReleafed is a movement rooted in a “wholistic” philosophy that views every person as their own first and best doctor. Too many people feel powerless in the face of chronic conditions, autoimmune challenges, or everyday health struggles. This is a safe, supportive space where healing meets science. Here, members learn practical, science-backed natural strategies to reduce inflammation, support detoxification, balance immunity, and restore vitality, all while being guided to trust their own inner wisdom.

   Movement-Based and Somatic Approaches to Healing Trauma

   This episode focuses on movement-based and somatic approaches to healing trauma. Kristin Maloney discusses how trauma is stored in the body and fascia, and how movement can help complete stress responses, regulate the nervous system, and release emotions. The conversation highlights the importance of somatic awareness for emotional regulation, explores transgenerational and epigenetic aspects of trauma, and discusses how neural pathways can be reframed and healed from birth. The episode compares movement-based therapies like equine therapy, yoga, and dance to traditional talk therapy, emphasizing that safety is the gateway to healing. Practical advice includes incorporating small, regular movements, such as five minutes a day, to begin the healing process, and recognizing that the body often reveals trauma before the mind. Additionally, the BeReleafed event, "The Healing Power of Movement," scheduled for March 15 at 6 p.m. EST, promises a deeper exploration of fascia, nervous system regulation, and somatic awareness for long-term resilience.

   Reconnecting with Nature: A Path to Emotional and Physical Harmony

   In this episode of BeReleafed, I sit down with K. Miller, a Harmony Coach who is passionate about helping women reconnect with their natural rhythms. Together, we dive into the vital link between our biology and the natural world, exploring how modern life has pulled us away from the environmental cues that guide our health. K shares her wisdom on recognizing when we’ve lost touch with our bodies and nature, and how cultivating that awareness can transform both our emotional and physical well-being. We also discuss practical ways to restore this connection, including getting intentional sunlight, practicing mindful breathing, and tuning into the body’s natural cycles.In this episode of BeReleafed, I sit down with K.

   Nitrates: Superfood or Silent Risk? The Truth About What’s Really on Your Plate

   Are nitrates dangerous—or are they essential for heart health and circulation? In this episode of BeReleafed, Ashlee unpacks one of the most misunderstood and controversial topics in nutrition: nitrates in our food supply. From leafy greens and beets to processed meats and environmental exposure, nitrates can either support healing or contribute to disease—depending on context. You’ll learn: What nitrates actually are and how they function in the body Why vegetable nitrates behave differently than those in processed meats The role of nitric oxide in circulation and cellular health How environmental contamination and soil quality affect nitrate exposure The hidden factors that determine whether nitrates become protective or harmful This episode bridges nutrition science, environmental health, and natural healing, helping you move beyond fear-based food narratives and understand how your internal and external environments shape health outcomes. 🎟️ Save your seat for our free online event: BeReleafed: A Fresh Start – Reconnecting Mind, Body & Nature 📅 January 31 at 11am EST 🔗 Register here: https://bereleafed.com/op/bereleafed-events (https://bereleafed.com/op/bereleafed-events) Join us as we explore how to realign with nature, regulate the body, and build a foundation for true, lasting wellness.

    The Gut: Where Health Actually Begins

    Your gut is doing far more than digesting food, it’s communicating with your immune system, hormones, and even your brain. In this episode of BeReleafed, Ashlee explores the science of the gut microbiome and why true healing often begins in the digestive system. From immunity and inflammation to mood, cravings, and chronic illness, the gut plays a central role in how the body functions and heals. You’ll learn: What the gut microbiome is and why diversity matters How gut health influences immunity, inflammation, and mental health The gut–brain connection and its role in stress and mood regulation Common myths about probiotics, detoxes, and “gut cleanses” Natural, science-backed ways to support gut healing with food, herbs, and lifestyle shifts This episode helps you understand why symptoms often show up far from the gut and how restoring digestive balance can create ripple effects throughout the entire body. If you’ve struggled with bloating, fatigue, skin issues, frequent illness, or brain fog, this episode will help you see your gut as a powerful ally in healing, not something to fight or suppress. https://linktr.ee/ashleethehealthscientist (https://linktr.ee/ashleethehealthscientist) References: NIH – National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH)https://www.nccih.nih.gov (https://www.nccih.nih.gov) Mayer, E.

    Cold, Flu & Allergies: The Immune System Isn’t Weak

    What if your cold, flu, or allergy symptoms aren’t signs of a weak immune system but evidence that your body is responding exactly as designed? In this episode of BeReleafed, we explore the immune system through a different lens — one rooted in biology, terrain, and resilience. We discuss why suppressing symptoms doesn’t always lead to healing, how nutrient status and inflammation influence immune response, and what natural supports research actually backs. This episode is educational, science-informed, and designed to help you ask better questions about your health. 🔗 Join us live for our online event: A Fresh Start: Reconnect with Mind, Body & Nature 📅 January 31 | ⏰ 11am EST 👉 Register at https://bereleafed.com/op/bereleafed-events (https://bereleafed.com/op/bereleafed-events) https://linktr.ee/ashleethehealthscientist (https://linktr.ee/ashleethehealthscientist) References from today's discussion: NIH NCCIH – Immune support botanicals Calder et al., Nutrients (2020) – Vitamin D & immunity Gaby, Alternative Medicine Review – Zinc & viral response WHO – Traditional medicine & immune modulation Wikipedia (Epigallocatechin gallate): Defines it as "Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), also known as epigallocatechin-3-gallate, ... the most abundant catechin in tea."

    “If Natural Remedies Work, Why Aren’t Doctors Prescribing Them?”

    If Natural Remedies Work, Why Aren’t Doctors Prescribing Them? In this first episode of BeReleafed, host Ashlee Nycole, a degreed health scientist, explores why natural remedies, despite their deep roots in modern medicine, are rarely discussed or prescribed in conventional healthcare. This episode examines gaps in medical education, the plant origins of many pharmaceuticals, and how the body’s natural healing processes are supported through herbs, nutrition, and lifestyle practices. Rather than positioning natural remedies against medicine, this conversation highlights where science and nature intersect. BeReleafed is a space for informed curiosity, credible research, and rethinking what true wellness looks like. https://linktr.ee/ashleethehealthscientist (https://linktr.ee/ashleethehealthscientist) References & Research (For Listener Review) The following sources are provided so listeners can explore the research and history discussed in this episode: National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) https://www.nccih.nih.gov (https://www.nccih.nih.gov) Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) Research highlighting gaps in nutrition and lifestyle education within medical training programs World Health Organization (WHO) WHO Traditional Medicine Strategy https://www.who.int/teams/health-product-policy-and-standards/traditional-medicine (https://www.who.int/teams/health-product-policy-and-standards/traditional-medicine) Raskin, I., et al.
