THE WILDCRAFT APPROACH

Wildcraft is a term used to describe gathering herbs and plants growing wildly in nature, that are unadulterated or purposefully harvested. This is how our ancestors used medicine from the earth to heal each other. They gathered these plants to form remedies that could heal all sorts of ailments. Our craft is in taking this ancient wisdom in combination with our advanced scientific knowledge of today to create a holistic and unique protocol to heal and enhance your health and well-being.

Dear Wildcraft Patients,

Dear Wildcraft Patients,

It is with mixed emotions that I announce that I have accepted a new position and will no longer be seeing patients in clinical practice. If you would like to schedule any follow-ups before I leave July 21st, please give Kevincy a call at (858) 255-8244. If you would like to continue your care at Wildcraft Medicine, we have two other fantastic doctors who are taking new patients – Dr. Sierra Sugrue and Dr. Samantha Larkin. You can schedule free 15-minute phone consults with either of them to see if it would be a good fit. It has been an honor and privilege to help guide you all through your health journeys the last several years and I will miss you all greatly!

In good health,
Dr. Katelyn

Hi! I’m Dr.Sierra. I approach naturopathic medicine with the understanding that the body is intelligent and therefore symptoms are messengers guiding us to the root cause of disease. I guide you to support this natural intelligence so that wellness is long lasting and requires less interventions. When I investigate your health history, it is with its prenatal and intergenerational origins in mind. Before becoming a physician, my field of study focused on healing generational trauma with the goal of nervous system integrity. Nervous system integrity creates resilience which is required to maintain health.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I earned a degree in naturopathic medicine from Bastyr University in 2019. My undergraduate study was in psychology from the University of Hawaii. Psychology and the role of the mind and emotional health are foundational in how I view human function and guide my patients. I have studied and am certified in oriental energy medicine, yoga, and massage therapy. These eastern healing systems add physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions to my approach to care
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My clinical interests include but are not limited to: perinatal care, pediatric and infant care, hormone balancing for men and women, menopause, sexual function, digestive health, longevity, mental and emotional regulation, nervous system balance, immune system integrity and balance, chronic inflammatory diseases, chronic pain, cancer care and idiopathic disease.

RELAXING APPLE PIE SMOOTHIE! This smoothie is sure

RELAXING APPLE PIE SMOOTHIE! This smoothie is sure to chill you out before your period & make you feel all cozy inside 😊
Recipe:
✨1-2 cups almond milk
✨ 1 inch ginger
✨ ½ cup banana
✨ ¾ cup steamed cauliflower
✨ ½ cup green apple, chopped
✨ 1 tsp. cinnamon
✨ 1 tbsp. raw honey
✨ 1 cup cilantro

In a blender, put in all ingredients and blend until smooth. Sip & enjoy!
Avoid PMS symptoms with a gentle detox so you feel calm, cool, and collected. Cilantro will help your liver (you won't taste it), raw honey contains live enzymes that benefit your gut, while ginger aids digestion.
Banana contains tryptophan, an amino acid that makes serotonin, a feel good hormone that naturally dips before your period. This dip can make you over analyze yourself and life, while criticizing others.
Using food to support your hormone balance will help you smooth out your symptoms as you flow through the month. I hope you liked these delicious smoothie recipes perfectly tailored to your cycle!

xoxo, Laura

Join us the last Wednesday of every month for a Wo

Join us the last Wednesday of every month for a Women’s tea and Spiritual Healing Circle. This month we will be focusing on activating our solar plexus to tap into our personal power, enhance our intuition and support digestion both physically and energetically (your appetite for life!)
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In energetic medicine, your gut is part of your Solar Plexus. Physically it is located in the center of your trunk around your belly button, but your solar plexus energetically is one of the main chakras or energy centers and is a source of personal power.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It relates to self-esteem, identifying as your true authentic self, trusting your intuition, and the power of transformation. A lot of deep-rooted emotions, trauma, and memories can be stored in this chakra. When energy is stagnant or perhaps in excess it creates imbalances and leads to symptoms like feeling lost, low self-esteem, difficulty making decisions, self-criticism, control issues, and even physical symptoms like fatigue and digestive issues.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Without focusing on your energetic and emotional health it is almost impossible to truly heal your gut or any aspect of your health for that matter. Come learn more at our women’s tea circle! Link in bio for tickets.

When: March 29
Time: 6:30 pm
Where: @yardandsea

All Women Welcome!

While practicing diaphragmatic breathing, you are

While practicing diaphragmatic breathing, you are activating the parasympathetic system, which can be thought of as the relaxation response of the body or the “rest and digest” state. Our digestive system works best in this state!
1.Sit or lie in a comfortable place. Close your eyes.
2. Place one hand on your chest and one hand on your abdomen. The bottom hand should do the moving. The top hand should remain still or only move as the bottom hand moves.
3. Inhale through your nose for about 4 seconds, feeling your abdomen expand. Hold your breath for 2 seconds.
4. Exhale very slowly and steadily through your mouth for about 6 seconds. The mouth should be relaxed.
5. Repeat for a few minutes!

Hey Wildflower!

Hey Wildflower!

Our guts containing our microbiome full of bacteria, yeast and other microbes are like wildflowers. A garden full of diverse and abundant growth. Like having good soil for a garden, our guts need the right nutrients!

Here’s how you can help your inner garden thrive:

-Eat more fiber! Found in veggies, fruits, whole grains, nuts and seeds, and legumes. Fiber directly feeds the bacteria in the gut so it can produce important nutrients for us like b vitamins, vitamin k, and short chain fatty acids.

-Eat fermented foods like sauerkraut, kimchi, kombucha and kefir. Fermented foods have predigested enzymes and probiotics to help feed the flora in your gut

-Eat more gut friendly and gut healing foods like cabbage- high in glutamine which heals the gut lining, bone broth high in collagen and protein, and ghee high in SCFAs!

-Take deep breathes before eating and make sure you are sitting down and in a calm state while eating. This is HUGELY simple yet important because our guts are controlled by our parasympathetic nervous system. If you are stressed or on the move while eating then we don’t get into that rest and digest state and our digestion doesn’t function properly. Enzyme production drops and the ease in which we move food and stool through our GI tracts decreases. This can lead to things like heartburn, acid reflux, indigestion and constipation.

Did you know the best determinant of microbiome diversity is the number of plant foods we eat!?

The American Gut Project showed that regardless of the type of diet prescribed to, participants who ate more than 30 different plant foods per week had more diverse microbiomes.

So want to improve your microbiome? Try to eat plants from every color category over the next week!

Let's talk about why the microbiome is so importan

Let's talk about why the microbiome is so important to our overall health:

First off, the amount and variety of microbes that makes up your microbiome is determined by what you are exposed to - diet, geography, environment, toxins, stress, health status, gender, and even your genes.
As you can imagine, our microbes are constantly changing. And knowing the above information we can influence our microbiome to help support all aspects of health.

The relationship between you & your microbiome is symbiotic, meaning both parties thrive & benefit from the presence of the other. Here's what your microbiome is doing for you:

-Produces enzymes that support digestion especially of polysaccharides, healthy complex sugars found in plants

-Provides B vitamins, Vitamin K & short chain fatty acids

-Directly involved with communicating to the immune system when there are invaders

-Controls the HPA axis involved in the release of hormones like (Cortisol, TSH, Sex hormones)

-Role in regulating metabolism

-Supports mood through production of neurotransmitters
Regulates cognition, and pain through the gut-brain axis.

Ready for a digestive reset? Then you should be looking at your microbiome! At Wildcraft Medicine we offer extensive stool testing to access the status of your microbiome and gut function and this helps us to determine specifically what your system needs to heal and thrive. Reach out today!
