Gilles Marin from Chi Nei Tsang Institute on Sunlight and the Taoist Understanding of Healing

In this episode of the Sunforlife.info [https://sunforlife.info] Sunny Podcast, Ania Draus is joined by Gilles Marin, founder of the Chi Nei Tsang Institute [https://www.chineitsang.com/] and teacher within the Taoist healing tradition, for a conversation about sunlight, circadian rhythm, adrenaline, and the physiology of healing. We explore how light influences serotonin, sleep, digestion, and nervous system regulation, and why chronic stress and excess adrenaline may block the body’s ability to restore itself. This conversation looks at sunlight as a fundamental biological signal - one that shapes rhythm, sleep, and recovery. It invites us to reconsider light not as a trend, but as a daily foundation for regulation and wellbeing. You’re warmly invited to listen.

Jen Aliano from GrassRootsHealth.net on vitamin D, pregnancy, and lifelong women’s health

In this episode of the Sunforlife.info [http://Sunforlife.info] Sunny Podcast, Ania Draus is joined by Jen Aliano, Executive Director of GrassRootsHealth.net, for an interview on vitamin D, sunlight biology, and women’s health. We talk about pregnancy, breastfeeding, and maternal health, but also look beyond: exploring how vitamin D and omega-3s influence long-term child health and women’s health across the lifespan. The conversation touches on the unique biology of pregnancy, the importance of measuring vitamin D levels, the safety of supplementation, and why supporting women’s health before, during, and after pregnancy truly matters. This is a science-informed yet accessible discussion about simple biological foundations that are often overlooked in everyday healthcare, and how small, informed choices can have a generational impact. You’re warmly invited to listen.

How the sun shapes our food, our gut, and our health: A conversation with Dr. Anita Wasik

In this episode of Sun for Life – Sunny Podcast, Ania Draus speaks with Dr. Anita Wasik - a scientist, herbal medicine practitioner and intuitive healer who works with chronic illness by addressing root causes rather than symptoms. Together, they explore sunlight not only as energy, but as information, and how it shapes the soil, the plants we eat, the gut microbiome, and ultimately human health. Dr. Wąsik explains how light influences food quality, seasonality, digestion and circadian rhythm, and why local, sunlight-grown food is deeply aligned with what our bodies need at different times of the year. This conversation invites us to rethink “healthy food” through the lens of light, place and season, and to see every meal as part of a living system connecting the sun, the earth and our biology.

On the island, they found sunlight, community and a way of living that restored their health, presence and sense of purpose. This conversation is about courage, everyday choices and what can happen when we allow ourselves to start again — in the light.
