About the Episode:
IN this episode Muneera shows us how the Ancient wisdom of Ayurveda can provide guidance for supporting today’s modern teenager.
Ayurveda examines health and systems through an understanding of the five elements and the way they combine in three dosas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Each individual will have their own primary dosha and there are different times of day, year, and a lifetime more influenced by each particular dosha. The teenage years are particularly influenced by the fire and water elements associated with pitta. Muneera discusses diet, daily rhythm, healthy eating, and practical ways to handle stress gleaned from her years using Ayurveda with clients and her own family and teenagers.
Listen in and see how this ancient wisdom can be applicable to our modern times and teens.

Where we as parents take all the curiosity, self-empowerment, and other parenting tools that got us this far and apply them to understanding our teenagers better and hopefully shepherd them to becoming curious, self-empowered, caring and courageous citizens of the future. On Today’s episode I interview author, podcast host, and Fertility educator Lisa Hendrickson Jack about all things fertility and your teen. And we ask: What is your teen not learning in sex ed?
About the Episode
Did you know that though teenagers and young adults account for only one quarter of the textually active population, but half of all STI transmissions and are in general at greater risk from them than older adults? STI rates in adolescents have been on the rise since 2014 and are currently at an all-time high according to the CDC.
Lisa Hendrickson Jack discusses the basics of fertility health, why a push towards chemical birth control not only may damage your young teenager’shealth, but may also be contributing to the rise in STIs, and asks why more adults (and teens) don’t know how to properly use condoms. (Hint: you can’t use them with oil-based lubricants!) Why aren’t teens taught anymore that condoms, used correctly, are 98% effective at preventing pregnancy and remain the only way to protect against most STIs other than abstinence? What else is behind these distributing trends and what can teenagers and young women especially learn about their bodies, health, and fertility to help prepare them to take charge of their health and sexuality? She covers it all and then my teenager simplifies it in her “Teen Splain”.

I’m your host Manda Aufochs Gillespie and this is the Raising Greener Teens podcast, where we as parents take all the curiosity, self-empowerment, and other parenting tools that got us this far and apply them to understanding our teenagers better and hopefully shepherd them to becoming curious, self-empowered, caring and courageous citizens of the future. In this episode I interview author Jennifer Block about her most recent book Everything Below the Waist: Why Health Care Needs a Feminist Revolution.
I’d suggest this is one of the most important books a woman will ever read. But what does it mean for our teenagers, especially our daughters? We will learn more today. And then, at the end, my daughter will Teen Splain the issue. Stay tuned. Stay curious.
About the Episode:
American women visit more doctors, have more surgery, and fill more prescriptions than men. In Everything Below the Waist, Jennifer Block looks at the stories behind some scary stats to question why one third of mothers give birth by major surgery; roughly half of women lose their uterus to hysterectomy; and life expectancy of women are declining relative to women in other high-income countries, and relative to the generation before them. Our teenagers are growing up in a world where feminism has some serious unfinished business in women’s healthcare. Jennifer Block leads us in a discussion of how we might help guide our teenagers to enter adulthood, eyes open to the possibility of improving healthcare for all people. She covers it all and then my teenager simplifies it in her “Teen Splain”.

Her work has appeared in The Washington Post Magazine, Pacific Standard, The Cut, Newsweek, The Los Angeles Times, and many other publications. Her first book, Pushed, led a wave of attention to the national crisis in maternity care and was named a Best Book of 2007 by Kirkus Reviews. A reporter with Type Investigations, Block won several awards for her investigative reporting on the permanent contraceptive implant Essure, which has since been discontinued. For early chapters of Everything Below the Waist, she won a Whiting Creative Nonfiction Grant. She lives in Brooklyn, New York, with her son.

Traditional Chinese Medicine educator and Feminine Rhythms instructor Janine Mila guides us through the physiology and psychology of the menstrual cycle and how to support and work with its potential.

And what is at stake when young women are encouraged to push through or negate their bodies natural rhythms? Learn more about the four aspects of the cycle, when you will have the most energy for starting new things, the support to have those difficult conversations, when you will have the power of your most creative self, and when you will be most in need of extra rest.

About the Episode:
What is acne and how can you treat it while also improving your overall health? In this episode Caralyn Hale helps explain where a teenager (or anyone) struggling with acne can get started to help heal and stop breakouts. She explains what a healthy skin routine looks like, how to find the right products and insure you aren’t destroying your skin barrier. She goes on to also look at what is happening internally when acne is an issue, how to tell if your acne is hormonal, and what to do if it is. She covers realistic diet strategies to help maintain a healthy relationship to food but also understand how to increase nutrient dense foods and to decrease known acne triggers. She also talks about how she helps women dealing with post-pill acne and why the pill doesn’t fix—and can even cause—acne. “Things will get better!” she says to teens struggling with acne. “Acne has been my greatest teacher. It has encouraged me to find the best version of myself.” If your teenager wants more, but doesn’t want to listen to this whole episode, then my teenager simplifies the episode in her “Teen Splain”.

About the Episode:
Social Media is changing the teenage brain and interfering with the work a teenager must do to prepare for their future selves, but teens are also more dependent on social media than ever. What can a parent (and teen) do? In this episode Hayley Newell explains how the teenage years are the time for individuation where teens go from relying on an outside authority to an internal authority. To do this, dopamine forces them to feel more at this time to light the emotional spark and help them overcome the fear and reservation needed for them to “launch”. Social media interferes with this dopamine response and encourages passivity, it puts your teenager (and you) into situations ruled by mob mentality, and their social interactions are being controlled by an outside influence that makes money from grabbing their attention. Hayley guides us in thinking about how to question and survive social media, cancel culture, and our own relationship with our phones. Then my teenager simplifies it all in her “Teen Splain”.

Perhaps most importantly Dr. TeWinkel gives us strategies for helping us to trust our guts as parents and to guide our teens to do the same. What’s truly essential and what’s not.
