What Happens When You Stop Following Every Wellness Trend | Dr. Brook Sheehan

46m | Nov 13, 2026

Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right for your health, yet something still doesn't feel right?

You're following the recommendations, trying the latest wellness trends, tracking your progress, and making changes to your routine. But somewhere along the way, taking care of yourself starts to feel more like another responsibility than an act of love.

What if the answer isn't doing more? What if it's learning to listen differently?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Brook Sheehan, chiropractor, speaker, creator of the bodyOS framework, and host of the Beyond Wellness Culture podcast. We explore what it means to reconnect with the wisdom of our bodies, especially when we're navigating midlife changes, burnout, and the overwhelming amount of health advice coming at us every day.

Dr. Brook shares her own journey from being disconnected from her body to becoming so consumed with wellness that it began taking over her life. At one point, she was taking 28 different supplements and constantly searching for the next thing that would improve her health.

Her experience eventually led her to a different understanding of what it means to care for the body.

In This Episode, You'll Discover

  • Why listening to your body starts with building a relationship with it.
  • The bodyOS framework and how to recognize when your body is speaking quietly or loudly.
  • A simple this-or-that practice to develop body awareness.
  • How to recognize your body's signals without overthinking every decision.
  • Why midlife changes may require a different relationship with your body.

  • Simple ways to support your body when you're experiencing burnout.
  • How gratitude can help rebuild trust between you and your body.

Your body has carried you through so much. Perhaps it's time to stop treating it like something that needs fixing and start building a relationship with it that allows you to live with greater trust, peace, and joy.
