Staying Fit on Energy and PerformanceWelcome back to another episode of the Your Best Lifestyles Health and Wellness Podcast.Today, I want to talk about how music artist can stay healthy on their journey. Here are some of my tips:1. Staying Fit On Tour: Effective Workouts For Traveling Artists:Staying Fit On Tour: Effective Workouts For Traveling ArtistStaying fit on tour can be a challenge, but it's essential for maintaining energy and performance. As traveling artists, we often have limited access to standard gym facilities. However, effective workouts can be done anytime and anywhere. Bodyweight exercises, like push-ups and squats, require no equipment and can easily fit into our busy schedules.Incorporating short, high-intensity interval training sessions is another great option. Aim for 20 minutes of intense activity followed by short rest periods. Remember to stay hydrated and prioritize proper nutrition. By making fitness a priority, we can enhance our overall performance and well-being while on the road.2. Nutrition On The Go: Healthy Eating Tips For Busy Musicians: As busy musicians, we often find ourselves on the go, juggling rehearsals, gigs, and travel. This can make it difficult to maintain a balanced diet. One key to healthy eating is preparation. Pack nutrient-rich snacks like nuts, fruit, and whole-grain bars to keep your energy levels up during long days. Stay hydrated by carrying a reusable water bottle, ensuring you drink enough throughout the day. When eating out, opt for grilled over fried options and choose salads or vegetable sides to enhance your nutrient intake. With these simple tips, you can fuel your passion for music while nourishing your body. 3. Sleep Hygiene: The Importance Of Rest For Creative Professionals Sleep is an essential pillar of overall well-being, particularly for creative professionals. Quality rest enhances cognitive function, boosts mood, and fosters innovative thinking. When we neglect our sleep hygiene, we jeopardize our creative potential and productivity.Establishing a consistent sleep routine, creating a restful environment, and limiting screen time before bed are vital for optimal rest. Investing in our sleep not only improves our health but also elevates our creativity, allowing us to bring our best ideas to life. Prioritize sleep, and watch your creativity flourish. 4. Building A Support Network: Connecting With Fellow Artists For Well-beingBuilding a support network is essential for artists seeking to enhance their well-being. Connecting with fellow creatives allows us to share experiences, gain valuable feedback, and inspire one another. These relationships can be a lifeline in challenging times, providing encouragement and motivation when we need it most.As artists, we often work in solitude, which can lead to feelings of isolation. By fostering a community, we not only uplift ourselves but also contribute to a culture of collaboration and support. Let us invest time in building meaningful connections with fellow artists and prioritize our collective well-being.

These might include exercise, spending time in nature, listening to music, or engaging in hobbies.

1. Where are you from? How was your upbringing?My family escaped the Khmer Rouge regime and found a safe spot where I was born, in a refugee camp in Thailand, and then we moved to America in 1989 when I was still a baby.My upbringing started rough. My parents raised my sister and I in the Tenderloin. It's compared to Skid Row and it doesn't have the greatest reputation, but it raised me to become a wiser than normal person. Since Asian gang violence was big in the 90's, I went outside the Tenderloin and found myself making friends with everyone else, staying away from Asian gangs.If it wasn't for music, I think I would be gang banging, selling drugs, or doing god knows what. It doesn't mean I wasn't mixed in the dirt but it wasn't easy growing up there. My parents are still there, waiting for me to get them out one day. I will.What really saved my life growing up was music, sports, and being forced to volunteer at church. My sister and I grew up listening to Tupac, Timbaland, Naughty By Nature, The Fugees, Boyz II Men, Lauryn Hill, and so many more Hip-Hop and R&B artists that helped with us cope with the outside world. I looked for artists that I was able to connect with. 2. How did you begin making music?I tried making music several times growing up since my church had a band but it never really came to fruition. When I was 14, my friend, DJ Frisko Eddy and I started a DJ group called “The Untouchablez” with 2 other people at Horizon Youth Center in the Mission District. That's when I learned how to scratch and mix, but I stopped because I needed to get a “real job.” Things were always getting in the way, but I found creative ways to keep myself in the music scene like promoting for clubs, connecting talent, and managing local artists.I never really started making music until just recently last year, when my long-term girlfriend and I broke up. It was the worst breakup that I ever had because of what I gave up to be in that relationship. But…it brought me back to music. Maybe, music is my first love but I never paid that much attention to it before. It's like a memory that I'm feeling again, a familiar nostalgic feeling of love. 3. How did you get your rap name?I don't think it's a rap name. I chose Crossed The Golden Gate because my family flew over and crossed the Golden Gate Bridge when we immigrated to America. I don't think I rap like that. 4. How would you describe your musical style?I don't know yet. All I know is that I wrote poetry and spoken word my entire life, and it comes out like that in my songs.5. Tell me about “Own Nothing”.My parents and I had never owned anything in our lives. I watched my parents help other families get what they wanted by helping them with their bills and mortgage, but I had never seen my parents help themselves.I'm sitting on major debt and student loans right now and it's only because I never had support. My parents couldn't support me and my sister had to help me out a bit, but she was also struggling. My parents sacrificed so much for us and their relatives that it became normal for them. So, it's a deeper meaning to “Own Nothing” than people think. Owning anything on Earth is not appealing for me anymore since we really never owned anything. I die without it anyway, so why even care? 6. What inspired you to create Own Nothing?The struggle of my parents and my upbringing that I couldn't tell anyone about. 7. How is it different than previous drops?My first drop was a fun dance song, so this is really my first project that I dropped. 8. Is it part of a project? If so, can you tell me more about that?I am the project. 9. What message do you want fans to walk away with after listening to “Own Nothing”?Be a friend.I want people to know that people aren't what they seem and everyone is struggling. You just don't know what they are struggling with. Stay curious but don't judge a human just because you had issues with your projections. Just ask them how they're doing. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/yourbestlifestyles/support

Hangry for Happiness? How Hunger Affects Your Mood Have you ever noticed yourself turning grumpy or easily irritated when you're feeling hungry? Turns out, there's a scientific reason behind this phenomenon. Hunger doesn't just affect your stomach; it can significantly impact your mood and emotions. Why does this happen? When you haven't eaten in a while, your blood sugar levels drop. This triggers the release of hormones like ghrelin (the hunger hormone) and cortisol (the stress hormone). Ghrelin stimulates your appetite, while cortisol increases your body's alertness and prepares it to find food. However, these hormonal changes have unintended consequences on your mood: It's not just about blood sugar: Beyond the hormonal and physiological responses, your relationship with food and perceptions of hunger can also influence your mood. For example, individuals with disordered eating or negative body image beliefs may experience heightened anxiety or guilt when feeling hungry. What can you do? Remember: Taking care of your physical needs through healthy eating habits and mindful choices can not only support your physical health but also contribute to a more balanced and positive mood. By understanding the connection between hunger and emotions, you can make informed choices and nurture a well-being that encompasses both body and mind.

My Top benefits for detoxing your body for better health. Improved Digestion: Certain dietary changes, like increasing fiber intake and staying hydrated, can help your digestive system function more efficiently, potentially leading to reduced bloating, constipation, and improved nutrient absorption. Enhanced Energy Levels: Processed foods, sugar, and unhealthy fats can contribute to sluggishness and fatigue. Choosing nutrient-dense foods, getting enough sleep, and managing stress can contribute to increased energy levels. Clearer Skin: Inflammation and oxidative stress can manifest as skin issues. Eating anti-inflammatory foods, staying hydrated, and getting enough sleep can potentially improve skin health. Weight Management: While not a magic bullet for weight loss, focusing on whole, unprocessed foods and mindful eating can help manage calorie intake and promote healthy weight management. Stronger Immune System: A healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can provide essential nutrients that support immune function. This doesn't guarantee immunity to illness, but it can contribute to your overall well-being. Improved Mental Clarity: Studies suggest that gut health can impact mood and brain function. Choosing a balanced diet and managing stress can potentially improve mental clarity and focus. Remember: Focusing on sustainable, healthy habits like nutritious eating, regular exercise, adequate sleep, and stress management is the best way to support your body's natural detoxification processes and promote overall well-being.

Taming the Treat Tiger: How to Resist Food Temptations and Slay Snack Attacks We've all been there. Staring longingly at the donut stand, reaching for "just one more" chip, or succumbing to the siren song of the late-night ice cream carton. Food temptations can seem like an unstoppable force, leaving our healthy intentions in the dust. But fear not, fellow warriors of wellness! By understanding the enemy and wielding powerful strategies, we can rise victorious over these tempting treats. Know Your Triggers: The first step in the battle against food temptations is self-awareness. What are your typical triggers? Is it boredom, stress, social gatherings, or certain times of day? Once you identify your weak spots, you can create a plan of attack. Fortify Your Defenses: Preparation is key! Stock your pantry and fridge with healthy alternatives that satisfy your cravings without derailing your goals. Fruits, vegetables, nuts, and whole grains are your allies in this fight. Keep them readily available for when hunger strikes. Distract and Delay: Temptations are often fleeting. When the urge hits, don't cave in immediately. Distract yourself with a quick activity like taking a walk, calling a friend, or doing some stretches. The craving will likely subside within a few minutes. If it persists, delay gratification by telling yourself you'll have it later, but only after enjoying a healthy snack or meal first. Mindful Munching: Sometimes, indulging in moderation is okay. If you truly desire a specific treat, do so mindfully. Savor each bite, noticing the taste, texture, and how it makes you feel. This mindful approach can help prevent mindless overeating and create a more balanced relationship with food. Seek Support: Remember, you're not alone in this battle! Share your struggles with friends, family, or a support group. Having someone to cheer you on and hold you accountable can make a world of difference. Remember, progress, not perfection: Don't be discouraged by occasional slip-ups. They are a normal part of the journey. Just learn from them, dust yourself off, and get back on track. Celebrate your victories, big and small, and remember that every healthy choice brings you closer to your goals. Bonus Tip: Visualize your future self. Think about how you want to feel and look. Let that image motivate you to make choices that align with your long-term vision for yourself. With these strategies and a dose of self-compassion, you can transform food temptations from fearsome foes into manageable challenges. So, go forth, conquer those cravings, and claim your throne as the master of your own healthy destiny!

Fear and Forks: Navigating Unhealthy Pressures on Your Weight Loss Journey So you've embarked on a brave and admirable quest: to improve your health through weight loss. But amidst the excitement, a shadow looms – the fear of social pressures and lack of support. You're not alone. Let's delve into these common anxieties and explore tools to combat them: Fear #1: "The Guilt Trip": Imagine declining cake at a friend's gathering, only to be met with accusatory "Are you on a diet?" or concerned "You look too thin!" These comments, though often unintentional, can trigger guilt and derail your resolve. Tip: Prepare your response! Practice a polite, firm statement like, "I'm making some healthy choices, but thanks for the offer!" Emphasize your personal journey, not a restrictive diet. Fear #2: "The Peer Pressure Party": Social gatherings often revolve around food, and opting for healthier choices can feel isolating. The pressure to indulge with the group can be immense. Tip: Be proactive! Offer to bring a healthy dish to share, suggest alternative activities like walks or games, or gracefully excuse yourself for healthier pursuits. Remember, true friends will respect your choices. Fear #3: "The Familial Friction": Home, unfortunately, isn't always a haven for support. Family meals might not cater to your new choices, leading to tension and discouragement. Tip: Open communication is key. Explain your goals and needs calmly, suggest healthier modifications for family meals, and involve them in your journey. Seek understanding, not perfection. Fear #4: "The Sabotage Syndrome": You might encounter individuals who offer "help" in the form of unhealthy treats or dismissive comments. This can be incredibly disheartening. Tip: Set boundaries politely but firmly. Explain how their actions impact you and suggest alternative ways to offer support. Remember, you can't control others, but you can control your reaction. Beyond the Fears: Building Your Support System: Remember, your weight loss journey is yours. Don't let fear or negativity dictate your path. By acknowledging these anxieties, developing coping mechanisms, and building a supportive network, you can navigate social pressures and turn them into fuel for your success. Take a deep breath, believe in yourself, and remember, every healthy choice is a step towards a happier, healthier you!

The Weight Loss Rollercoaster: Battling Slower Progress and Inconsistent Results We've all been there: the initial weight loss excitement fades, the scale seems stuck on repeat, and motivation plummets faster than a rogue sock in the dryer. Slow progress and inconsistent results are enough to make anyone scream into a pillow (or maybe a pint of ice cream, let's be honest). But fear not, fellow weight warriors! We're here to talk about it, dissect it, and offer tips to navigate this frustrating plateau. First, let's acknowledge the elephant in the room: slow progress and inconsistency are normal. Our bodies are complex ecosystems, and weight loss isn't a linear journey. Hormones, stress, sleep, even the weather can impact the scale (yes, really!). So, before you spiral into self-doubt, remember: you're not alone, and this is part of the process. Now, let's tackle the frustration: Okay, so how do we navigate this? Remember: This is your journey, not a race against others or the scale. Embrace the ups and downs, celebrate small wins, and focus on building healthy habits that become a sustainable lifestyle. With the right mindset and support, you can overcome the frustrations and reach your goals!

Hitting a Weight Loss Wall? Conquering Plateaus and Setbacks Like a Champion We've all been there: the initial weight loss excitement fades, the numbers on the scale stubbornly refuse to budge, and frustration sets in. Hitting a plateau or experiencing setbacks is a normal part of the weight loss journey, but it doesn't have to derail your progress! Here are some empowering talking points to help your clients navigate these roadblocks: Understanding Plateaus: Physiological Adaptations: As your body gets fitter, it becomes more efficient at using energy, making further weight loss challenging. But remember, even small changes in body composition are significant! Calorie Creep: Unconsciously increasing portion sizes or indulging in more treats can subtly sabotage your progress. Mindful eating practices are key. Muscle vs. Fat Loss: Building muscle burns more calories at rest, even if the scale weight stays the same. Celebrate non-scale victories like strength gains and improved endurance! Conquering Setbacks: Forgive Yourself: Everyone slips up! Dwelling on guilt only amplifies negativity. Embrace setbacks as learning opportunities and recommit to your goals. Identify Triggers: What situations lead to unhealthy choices? Recognizing your triggers empowers you to develop coping mechanisms, like having healthy snacks readily available. Adjust Your Approach: Sometimes, tweaking your workout routine or meal plan can reignite progress. Consult your coach or a registered dietitian for personalized guidance. Maintaining Motivation: Focus on Progress, Not Perfection: Celebrate small wins and milestones, no matter how seemingly insignificant. Remember, progress, not perfection, is the key to long-term success. Find an Exercise You Enjoy: Working out shouldn't feel like punishment. Explore different activities until you discover something you genuinely love. Build a Support System: Surround yourself with positive and encouraging people who believe in your goals. Share your journey and seek their support during challenging times. Remember: Weight loss is a journey, not a race. Enjoy the process, focus on healthy habits, and celebrate your overall well-being, not just the number on the scale. You are not alone! Many people experience plateaus and setbacks. Seek support from your coach, community, or online resources to stay motivated and empowered. By understanding the reasons behind plateaus and setbacks, developing strategies to overcome them, and maintaining a positive mindset, your clients can navigate these challenges and achieve their weight loss goals in a sustainable and healthy way.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy: Understanding the Potential Benefits (and Risks) Testosterone, the quintessential male hormone, plays a crucial role in various aspects of men's health. From regulating sex drive and muscle mass to influencing mood and bone density, testosterone levels naturally decline with age. This decline can lead to a range of symptoms, often referred to as hypogonadism. So, what is Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)? It's a treatment aimed at restoring testosterone levels to the normal range using various methods like injections, gels, and patches. While TRT may seem like a magical solution to age-related concerns, it's crucial to understand both the potential benefits and risks before considering it. Potential Benefits: Enhanced Sexual Function: One of the most common reasons men seek TRT is to improve their sex life. Studies suggest TRT can increase libido, improve erectile function, and enhance overall sexual satisfaction. Increased Energy Levels: Low testosterone can lead to fatigue and sluggishness. TRT may help boost energy levels and improve physical performance. Improved Mood and Well-being: Studies indicate TRT may positively impact mood by reducing symptoms of depression and irritability. Increased Muscle Mass and Strength: Testosterone plays a vital role in building and maintaining muscle mass. TRT can help increase muscle mass and strength, especially when combined with exercise. Improved Bone Density: Testosterone contributes to bone health. TRT may help prevent osteoporosis and reduce the risk of fractures. Important Considerations: TRT is not a magic bullet: It's not a treatment for aging itself and won't turn back the clock. It's crucial to have realistic expectations about what TRT can and cannot achieve. It's not for everyone: TRT is only recommended for men with confirmed low testosterone levels and symptoms of hypogonadism. Self-diagnosing and self-treating with testosterone can be dangerous. Potential side effects: TRT can come with side effects like acne, oily skin, mood swings, and increased risk of prostate problems. Regular monitoring by a healthcare professional is essential. Long-term risks are still being studied: While short-term studies show potential benefits, the long-term effects of TRT are still being investigated. Remember: TRT is a complex medical decision. Consultation with a qualified healthcare professional is crucial to understand its potential benefits and risks, determine if it's right for you, and develop a personalized treatment plan. This blog is for informational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice. Always consult with your doctor before making any decisions about your health. I hope this blog provides a starting point for your understanding of TRT. Remember, responsible research and consulting with a medical professional are key to making informed decisions about your health.

Food as Fuel, Not Foe: Reframing Your Relationship with the Plate For decades, food has been a battleground: the enemy in the war against weight, the saboteur of our sculpted physiques, the source of guilt trips and deprivation diets. But what if it didn't have to be this way? What if, instead of a foe, we saw food as our fiercest ally, the fuel that powers our lives, our ambitions, and our very existence? This is the revolution of Food as Fuel: a shift in perspective that reframes our relationship with what we eat. It's not about counting calories or chasing fad diets; it's about nourishing our bodies and minds, providing them with the tools they need to thrive. Imagine your body as a powerful engine, capable of incredible feats of strength, creativity, and endurance. But just like any engine, it needs the right fuel to run smoothly and efficiently. Would you pour sugary soda into a high-performance sports car? Of course not! You'd choose high-octane gasoline, designed to optimize performance. This is where the fuel-focused mindset comes in. We start to see food not as a source of pleasure or punishment, but as a strategic toolkit for building health, resilience, and vitality. Every bite becomes a conscious choice, an investment in ourselves, a whisper to our cells saying, "I have what you need to do amazing things." This doesn't mean we turn into bland robots, consuming kale smoothies and protein bars as emotionless fuel units. Food can still be joyful, delicious, and a celebration of life's richness. But within that celebration, we cultivate an awareness of what truly nourishes us, what gives us energy, and what leaves us feeling sluggish and depleted. Here are some tips to kickstart your Food as Fuel journey: Remember, this is a journey, not a destination. There will be stumbles, detours, and cravings that beckon you off the path. But with each conscious choice, you build a stronger, healthier relationship with food and empower yourself to reach your full potential. So, let's ditch the "foe" mentality and embrace Food as Fuel. Turn your plate into a power source, and watch your body and mind light up with the energy you've been giving it all along. The road to a vibrant, fulfilling life starts with every bite, every choice, and every delicious step on this Food as Fuel adventure. Ready to ignite your engine? Let's get rolling!
