Over the years, topics about sex and sexuality has been a delicate subject matter to talk about. Even the names of our body parts have been given other names. Everything goes back to sexual shame. And to avoid this, we have to first identify what we have and understand that it is part of our body.

The experience for mothers with children on substance use disorder is very traumatic, and oftentimes they also isolate themselves from the world.  They even stay out of touch with friends for fear of judgment.  But the greatest impact for mothers is the hurt they feel seeing their child go through this disease.  They are the first people that reach out for help on behalf of their children, they are the first responders to their children's well being. That being said,  mothers need recovery, too, for their own physical and mental well-being.  Listen to this powerful conversation of two loving mothers, Gail and Shelly Young who found in themselves a common connection to allow themselves to be just their authentic self, with no judgment, no blame or guilt. Highlights of the episode … - What inspired Shelly to create the newsletter "Recover the Mother"?  - Shelly's thoughts on the stigma and shame associated with addiction that she felt as a mother. - Why does Shelly disapprove of the language used to refer to people with substance use in conversations or even in the recent book she has read by Martha Beck? - Why is there a need to focus on teaching children early on about taking care of the body, the mind and spirit? - Why can mothers be at risk of isolating themselves from people? - No matter how hurt mothers feel, it can't disconnect the love for their children.  - Why did Shelly choose the non-traditional path for her own recovery? - What is the objective of the newsletter, “Recover the Mother”? - Shelly's words of wisdom for mothers in remembering self-love.  - Is there a  book in the offing for Shelly Young?

Society has a backlog in the understanding that drug addiction is a disease just like diabetes is or any kind of disease. There is also a stigma that society has attached to people with drug addiction, for them to feel the shame, being an outcast or a junkie. In this episode, Gail speaks with Gary Mendell, the founder of Shatterproof, who as a parent was impacted by a child with addiction. After his son Brian died, he made a promise to his son that he would spare others of this tragedy. That promise has now become a movement, something that the country needed to bring people together for awareness of the disease. Highlights of the episode … - What drove Gary Mendel to start the foundation Shatterproof? - In what ways does Shatterproof work in changing the stigma attached with drug addiction? - How was the foundation able to change the knowledge and attitudes of people in Pennsylvania about the disease in just 12 months? - Is Shatterproof going in the direction of going to the media or Hollywood to share stories and information that drug addiction is a disease? - They say that there is a higher chance of addiction when started at a younger age, what should be the role of schools in educating the kids? - Gary's website, its impressive line up of Board of Directors and the resources and programs available for addiction treatment. - What recommendation can Gary give to parents who undergo the same emotional experience and are impacted by addiction? - Words of wisdom on self love and self care that Gary passed on to listeners, especially those who have the drug addiction disease.

Sometimes the impediment to our success in life is not really understanding about ourselves. We are a combination of conditioning from outside forces and our natural human design, but there is an inner authority which somehow leads us to a better outcome in our decisions. We all can learn profound lessons from my conversation with Lucas in this episode of I Love Me Lab Podcast. One is that by living outside of our design, we are bound to be frustrated, bitter, and depressed. It is also one of the reasons why we suffer health crashes and correspondingly hurt our mental health, as well. Make sure you listen all the way to the end and gain insights that can help us improve our lives. Highlights of the episode … - What is human design? (...How are we all unique despite our commonalities?) - How can human design reveal about us? - In what ways can human design help people to love and trust themselves more? - When you become aware of your human design, how do you balance what you're conditioned to be and what is natural for us? - The four main distinctions or types of human design. (...An example of what happens when a projector businessman is coached by a generator coach.) - How can human design work with couples, partners in business, in any relationships? - What is the difference between human design and astrology? (...How do our dual consciousness interplay together?) - Human design can also help with how we can cope with the rapidly changing global imprint. - What does Lucas think about the controversial concept of human design that people have "no choice"? - One piece of wisdom that Lucas can impart on self-love and self-care.

There are myriads of emotions  that go inside of you when you have an adult child still suffering from drug addiction.  This affects the parents especially with the mothers because it is the natural responsibility of the mothers to rear for their child. There is guilt, denial and anger but most of these emotions can be dealt with when you know how to stay grounded.  It is very crucial for parents to feel grounded so that they are not operating in a crisis mode - emotionally, mentally, financially.

Parents who have adult children who have addictions find it hard to reconcile where they went wrong in their parenting.  There is that guilt that they may have something to do why their adult child turned to addiction.  Gail has been very passionate about this topic because she had to go through grief and guilt over an adult child with addiction for years.  In this episode of I Love Me Lab Podcast, Gail had a very enlightening conversation with Mike Speakman, a Life Coach and Licensed Substance Abuse Counselor.  He is also the founder of the support group called Parents of Addicted Loved-ones or PAL.

Emile Allen, MD, BCH, CI is the Director and Founder of The Pharmacy Within, a drug-free pain therapy solution for chronic pain, and a Board Certified Hypnotist (BCH) and Clinical Instructor (CI) of Medical Hypnosis. He is the former Chief of Urology and Vice-Chair of Surgery at Scripps Memorial Hospital-La Jolla, California. Dr. Allen enjoys teaching people globally, how to manage their chronic pain drug-free through his online classes and sessions. His passion for helping people worldwide has made him a two-time international award-winning author and an internationally-recognized speaker.

He had a traumatic brain injury and injured his left hand, as well. Through that he has to learn how to manage his pain drug-free and learn of alternative types of therapy, which led him to learn hypnosis. His medical mission to Haiti reinforced the belief that pain is created in the subconscious. In Haiti, people don't have easy access to anesthesia and operations are performed without it. After the operations, people don't complain about pain because they knew that they have to have this operation, so they prepared their mind. This is a powerful episode of the ‘I Love Me Lab Podcast', because it opens our minds to the possibility that pain can be managed drug-free. Prepare your mind! Highlights of the episode … - What is in the story of Dr. Emile Allen that created that shift into hypnosis and dig deeper into the subconscious to manage chronic pain? - In a retreat that Dr. Emile attended, he understood how his subconscious mind and the emotional grief of losing his father linked up to the pain in his right shoulder. - Dr. Emile Allen's realizations from a medical mission in Haiti. - How our mind works, the conscious and the subconscious? - Thoughts that are very wrong and people don't understand about pain. - What is hypnosis, the misconceptions and what can it do to manage conditioned pain? - The placebo aspect of how our bodies are able to heal, how our bodies are able to control conditioned pain. - The soon to be released book of Dr. Emile Allen, "The Pharmacy Within: The Amazing Ability to Relieve Chronic Pain Drug Free" - You can cure certain chronic illnesses/diseases with the subconscious mind and definitely put them in complete remission. - Last word of wisdom on self-care and self-love.

In this episode of I Love Me Love Podcast, Gail was able to have a great conversation with Ivette Pinela, an Advanced Practitioner of Structural Integration and a Rolfing expert.  Ivette fell from an accident at a restaurant where she was working at that time.  She was advised that she would not be able to stand or sit for more than 20 minutes, but she was not ready to accept that at 23.  She got introduced into the Rolf Method and although it was rough at first, in less than six sessions her body was healed.  Today she continues to help people in more ways than they can imagine to be pain-free.   Highlights of the episode … - Why did Ivette Pinela do a lot of traveling? - What is access consciousness - What are Access Bars?  - How is Rolfing different from massage - How many sessions does the process of structural integration take and why is it important to take all the sessions? - What is the proper way of breathing - Is Rolfing going to be good as preventative medicine?  - What will Ivette offer as one ingredient for that cocktail on Self-love?

Losing someone you love can be one of the most painful experiences you'll ever have to endure. While there's no one way to avoid intense feelings of grief, there are healthier ways to come to terms with your loss.  In this episode, Gail had a very engaging conversation with Alison Pena aka “The Bad Widow”,  who had to deal with the loss of her husband of 25 years. Alison's husband was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer but it did not stop him from still playing tennis even as his balance was waning or completing his last painting days before his death. It was that kind of spirit that made them LIVE to the fullest all the days they have left together.  Highlights of the episode … - Why does Alison call herself the Bad Widow? - What were the things that Alison was doing before her husband got sick? (...Was she able to do those things even when her husband got sick?) - When emotions come up at an inconvenient time, what should you do? - What are the types of grieving shifts in the grieving process? - Why is grieving difficult when you don't have someone else to have a sense of touch with? - What was the form of self-care Alison did to get through her grief? - In the coaching that Alison did, what was the difference between before and after her husband passed away?  - Gail shared her grieving experience over an adult son with a drug addiction that has lasted for several years. - What is the real essence of being called "The Bad Widow? (...How do you come back to yourself after grieving?) - How did Alison reinvent herself with the dating site Bumble and found true love again?  - What was different about Wayne (her new love) that Alison was able to get past the feelings of betrayal and guilt from the death of her husband? - Did Alison have to rebuild her network differently after her husband's death? - Some insightful parting words from Alison Pena.
