We believe that vibrant health cannot be cultivated in a lab, engineered through modern technology or found through “improving” nature. On the contrary, “life in all its fullness is mother nature obeyed,” as Dr. Price put it. We thrive when we live as our ancestors did, and we can look to the past for clues on how to go about it. This show, sponsored by the Weston A. Price Foundation, is an invitation to follow ancient health ways and to embrace alternative healing modalities to live our best lives. Our host, Hilda Labrada Gore, known as Holistic Hilda, interviews experts on a wide variety of topics—ranging from nutrient-dense foods to improving mental health to homesteading to detoxing to healing emotional trauma to the power of sunshine and mitigating EMFs. Every episode offers the listener a new (ancient) way to heal, grow, and live a happy life, brimming with vitality.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-06T20:18:11.149134+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-7013628"},"episode":{"title":"562: The Mental Health Crisis Is Not What We Think It Is With Laura Delano","slug":"562-the-mental-health-crisis-is-not-what-we-think-it-is-with-laura-delano","published_at":"2026-01-19T11:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-7013628/562-the-mental-health-crisis-is-not-what-we-think-it-is-with-laura-delano","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wise-traditions-7013628","url":"https://www.spreaker.com/episode/562-the-mental-health-crisis-is-not-what-we-think-it-is-with-laura-delano--69504754","audio_url":"https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/69504754/audio_final_wt_562_laura_delano.mp3","summary":"There is DEFINITELY a mental health crisis in the U.S. right now. But it's not about a lack of access to treatment or meds. Nearly one in four adults is on psychiatric meds, and nearly one in ten children is, as well. The crisis has to do with med-induced harm, according to Laura Delano, the author of \"Unshrunk\". And Laura speaks from her own first-hand experience with the American mental health industry. Since her early teen years, she has been on countless meds, including Seroquel, Prozac, Effexor, Provigil, Ambien, and Klonopin, all without any improvement in her worsening symptoms. Today, she describes her own mental health journey, offers insights about what sparked her questioning of the system, and why she's concluded that we would do well to question the nature of the crisis and to get curious about how to promote wellbeing with alternatives to psychiatric drugs.
