Podcasts about after surgery

I'm excited to welcome Dr. Anthony Youn, a nationally recognized board certified plastic surgeon who is known as America's Holistic Plastic Surgeon. I've never had a plastic surgeon on the show before, but I was drawn to Dr. Youn's unique, holistic wellness-based approach. Dr. Youn's philosophy is that surgery is a last resort. He's devoted his career to helping people look and feel their best naturally. In today's episode, he fills us in on what autojuvenation is and why it's the key to turning back the clock. We also talk about why our skin ages, and how to combat inflammation and oxidative stress through nutrition and lifestyle shifts. Dr. Youn shares his pro tips for a simple skincare routine – (you don't need tons of steps and products!) Plus, he answers burning questions about collagen supplements, sunscreen, retinol, lasers, and even vampire facials. I'm proud to share such a uniquely informed and empowered voice with the Be Well community today.We also cover:(00:01:53) Plastic Surgery Is a Last Resort(00:09:45) Holistic Healing Before & After Surgery(00:12:57) Nutrients To Support You for Surgery(00:14:33) Can You Turn Back the Clock Naturally?(00:18:52) Should You Supplement With Collagen?(00:24:29) Fighting Oxidative Stress on the Skin(00:29:09) Striving for Progress Over Perfection(00:32:34) How To Create a Simple Skincare Routine(00:36:35) Shining a Light on Sunscreen(00:39:40) Building a Bedtime Skincare Routine(00:46:12) Beyond Creams: Lasers, Light Therapy & Vampire FacialsThis episode is brought to you by:BWBK Protein Powder | Get $10 off your order with PODCAST10 at bewellbykelly.com.AG1 | Get a FREE 1-year supply of Vitamin D3K2 AND 5 free AG1 Travel Packs with your first purchase at drinkAG1.com/bewell.Cozy Earth | Get 35% off site wide when you use the code BEWELL at CozyEarth.com.Resources:Click here for full show notesWebsite: dryoun.comPre-order: Younger For Life and get over $100 value of free bonusesTikTok: @doctoryoun Instagram: @tonyyounmdYouTube: @DoctorYounPodcast: The Holistic Plastic Surgery Show Connect with Kelly:kellyleveque.comInstagram: @bewellbykellyFacebook: www.facebook.com/bewellbykellyBe Well By Kelly is produced by

Intro  (0:00) This episode is about my journey for my new listeners.  I have shared a lot of other stories with others, but it is rare that I share my story often and my Ostomy journey.  What led me into having an Ostomy. What I have done over the years. Cancer and ending up in an Ostomy. My mindset and my growth.   How It Began (2:19) Back in September of 2015 I was working in direct sales, built a large business, and joined a company with Tyra Banks in her cosmetic line.  I wanted to be a part of her affiliate program.  Was selected as the first 200 people to start that company in the direct sales route she was taking.  I was busy all the time and building my team, but something didn't feel right.  I was 44 years old at the time and my periods started hurting and were very painful. Sweating a lot so I just assumed going through menopause.  Summer of 2015 I earned a trip to go meet Tyra in person, but couldn't go to meet Tyra not feeling good.  The doctor did an exam and immediately saw something. Thought it was just a cyst, but because of family history they thought I should just go and see an oncologist.  So I went to meet Tyra then came home for my doctor's appointments.    After The Trip (5:42) Doctors' appointments after I got back showed that I had something called Lynch Syndrome.  This leads to Colon Cancer, Uterine Cancer, and those types of cancers.  The oncologist said we can do a full hysterectomy and take everything out. Test it and make sure it's not cancerous.  Had surgery and a full hysterectomy. And everything there was clean with no signs of anything.  However, they didn't get the “blob” out. It was still there.  So far embedded into the pelvis floor that they could not reach it.  The colorectal surgeon said to leave it there while I heal from surgery. And then they can do some testing on it to see what is there.  Biopsies, CT scans, and samples were sent off to another hospital to be tested.  Looked like a soft tissue sarcoma. And wasn't sure the type of tumor it was.  2 months of its just cysts, no big deal.  2nd surgery date was January 15th  Between that kept going back and forth wondering if it was cancer.  And knowing what the outcome could be, I did not want to be in a bag.  I wanted to be able to beat it without having to remove everything.    Mindset Spirituality (10:20) Had too much living to do and things I wanted to do in life. Could not let this take me away from that life.  Meditated for years, and would just meditate to understand why I was going through this.  I sat with myself a lot to just listen and find my purpose as to why this was happening.  Ask the tumor why it was here, what was I to learn from it? Slow down, stop working so hard, spend more time with family.  The only way to save my life was to end up in a bag.  Had a few successful businesses, top 1% of direct sales.  Came with a lot of work.  Day and night  Had a lot of stuff, but at the end of the day, stuff doesn't mean anything. Money is great but I needed to slow down.  I would meditate on my body being healthier, running health through my veins.  I prayed a lot. I am a spiritual person and I prayed so much.  I started reading the Bible and through those months and that year, I read the entire Bible. I tried to understand the words and I meditated on those words and passages.  Felt closer to God. There is something bigger out there and more than where we are today.  There is something more that we cannot see, but it is very close to us.  I could feel the energy around me at times.  I felt closer to God than I have in a while. Had a connection to Him right before surgery. I could feel Him touching my shoulder, and I felt a sense of peace and calmness run through my entire body.  I knew no matter what happened out of this, it was going to be okay.    After Surgery (17:40) Came out after a 9-hour surgery.  And immediately asked the doctor if we got that blob!  And I knew at that moment I was in an Ostomy bag.  I fought this so badly. I THOUGHT it was ugly, I thought it would ruin my life.  I got up walking and moving because I wanted to get to California to see Tyra again for the 2nd time.  Out of the hospital Tuesday and on a plane Saturday! I needed to do that. I believed there was something bigger out there and for us, I knew I had so much I needed to share.  My journey wasn't over.  Came back from California and shared my story, but I am not running as hard.  Moved to NYC for 3 years, and stopped working so hard in the direct sales.  Don't want to build a team right now, but still share products with a company I am in and I share what I love.  My journey isn't there anymore. It's here with you guys talking to you about my Ostomy and doing this podcast and bringing awareness to this lifesaving medical device. At 51 years old I just signed a contract with an acting and modeling agency. And this brings me to the point of our lives never over. Our journey and our lives are ever evolving.    Closing (22:00) There is a reason why we ended up in an ostomy and why we are in one.  Slow down your life? Or live bigger?  Someone you will inspire?  Whatever that is, there is a reason you are here and give us a second chance at life.  You are in this position for a purpose and you are making a difference whether you know it or not.  I thought it was important for me to share my cancer journey with you all!  “Regardless of whatever is going on, we are beautiful and it does not matter. So know that life doesn't have to be different. Yes, there are going to be struggles, yes, there's going to be things that you're going to have to overcome. But it's through that journey that you learn how strong you are and on the other side you are always so good!” What you believe is true and you can do anything you put your mind to.

Christina, Britt, and Regina Sara Ryan sit down for a conversation wrapped around a conversation of being, aim, death, and practice. They discuss the numinousness of "being-presence" as a quality, the importance of clarity of aim, and how, when we reckon with impermanence, we invite in gratitude and a certain urgency in living. Regina is a prolific writer, author of many books, and Christina's mentor and book editor. Regina Sara Ryan is an author, editor, writing coach and seminar & retreat leader. A former Catholic nun, Regina has studied contemplation and mysticism throughout her adult life. After leaving the convent in 1971, she explored other religious traditions and was inspired by the lives of the great women of Hinduism, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism and Sufism who had lived these ways. Since meeting her own spiritual teacher, the Western Baul master Lee Lozowick in 1984 (d. 2010), Regina continues to follow what she calls a path of “unashamed devotion” in which she works to bring her life of contemplation into action. Her books include: Wellness Workbook , co-authored with John W. Travis, M.D.; The Woman Awake: Feminine Wisdom for Spiritual Life; After Surgery, Illness, or Trauma; Praying Dangerously; Only God: A Biography of Yogi Ramsuratkumar; Breastfeeding: Your Priceless Gift to Your Baby and Yourself and Igniting the Inner Life. Recently widowed, after a 46-year marriage, she lives on her Teacher's ashram in Paulden, Arizona. Regina is currently writing a book on retreat practice, available in Spring 2021, called I Invite My Soul.Find the transcription of this episode here.Become a supporter of the podcast by becoming a Patreon member!To check out Christina’s live stream and on-demand classes, workshops, and intensives, visit christinasellyoga.com.Find Britt’s Live Stream classes, library of offerings, Tarot readings, and other work here.To send questions, feedback, or get in touch about sponsorship inquiries, email us at hello@livethelightofyoga.com.Contributors: Christina Sell (co-host).

Janine interviews dietitian and therapist Megan Moore. Megan holds a Bachelor’s of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition from Washington State University and has been working with bariatric patients since 2013. We discuss: What a pre-surgery bariatric diet looks like, and why it is so restrictive. The flexibility of a diet post-surgery, including the best foods to eat and whether a strict low-carb or high-protein diet is necessary after weight-loss surgery. The stages of weight loss after surgery, and the healing process the stomach must go through to return patients to their best selves. Examples of recommended meals for bariatric patients, both before and after surgery. Ways bariatric patients can cook food that will minimize complications post-surgery and make tasty meals. The “three week stall”, and what bariatric patients can expect from weight loss in the early months. The commonality of struggles bariatric patients face, and the resources those patients can turn to. Megan can be found at her website, My Bariatric Dietitian. Her website is a comprehensive resource for bariatric patients at any stage of their weight-loss journey, and provides understanding and encouragement. She is also active on Pinterest and Instagram, where she posts recipes that she suggests for bariatric patients. Her book of recipes, “The Complete Bariatric Cookbook and Meal Plan: Recipes and Guidance for Life Before and After Surgery”, is available now on Amazon. This podcast wouldn't be possible without our sponsor, BariatricPal.com.

  Imagine 2 patients, exactly the same both inside and out. The first patient gets a knee tear and goes the regular routine, an x-ray, an MRI, they find out it's a knee tear and Doctors say, okay we're doing some surgery. After Surgery he's put in a brace that locks that knee in place which will cause atrophy. Now that leads to physical therapy and more doctor visits and he won't even have maximal activation of the muscles around the knee. Then when he's finally released from his brace that muscle is going to need more work on it from being denied a normal routine. Let's breakdown the negatives from Surgery: Atrophied Muscles, which means more recovery time after you're heald Multiple Doctor visits even though everything should be healed More money being spent, why waste the money when you can do physical therapy while you heal? Our 2nd patient in contrast with no surgery,no painkillers, and guess what all he had to do was take time out exercise a certain way and all it does is take up time and you'll probably end up sweating a little more.

If you work in healthcare and haven’t read the book “In Shock: My Journey from Death to Recovery and the Redemptive Power of Hope” I really hope you will. In the meantime listen to intensivist and best-selling author Dr Rana Awdish on this week’s episode of Mastering Intensive Care and you’ll understand why. In her book, Rana brilliantly tells the real-life story of her near-death experience and subsequent recovery into which she weaves insightful observations and reflections on both the good and the bad of the healthcare she witnessed. Whilst Rana would have died without the excellence of the team who managed her sudden medical crisis the seeming lack of humanity was stark and frequently counterproductive. At the time Rana was in the final days of her Critical Care Fellowship in Detroit. Now an intensivist and frequent public speaker she has ample experience and expertise to assist intensive care clinicians to improve, the aim of this show. Rana graduated from Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit, completed Internal Medicine residency in New York, and then Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Fellowships at Henry Ford Health System in Detroit where she now works. She is Assistant Professor at the Department of Internal Medicine, Director of the Pulmonary Hypertension program, Senior Staff Physician in the Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine and Medical Director, Care Experience. Amongst many accomplishments she is the Physician Facilitator for the CLEAR Conversations program, teaches on communication, bioethics and physician wellness, and has won the National Compassionate Caregiver of the Year Award at the Schwartz Center for Compassionate Healthcare. Apart from beautifully describing how it really felt to be a patient, Rana also talks about: The suboptimal communication encounters she remembers Her gratitude for the skill and grace she received The benefits of being more engaged and connected with our patients Why first impressions matter The value of curiosity Using mindfulness to enhance presence What being cut off from knowledge as a patient felt like Her experience of asking for working suction in her own operation The value of community in unburdening ourselves as health practitioners How Schwartz rounds can be helpful The very first patient she met after recovering from her illness Her belief that showing compassion will make you more efficient The healing effect of family member presence The benefits of self-care (and what Rana does herself) The part spirituality might play in healthcare Better understanding the use of opiates and pain management Going home after a chronic critical illness How the whole experience has affected how she acts on ward rounds Our own healthcare experiences should not be the main driver towards the compassionate and caring practitioners our patients need. But as you’ll hear in this episode, they can deliver the sort of truth and learning we may not otherwise find. Please enjoy listening to Dr Rana Awdish.   Andrew Davies   --------------------   About the Mastering Intensive Care podcast: The podcast is aimed to inspire and empower you to bring your best self to the intensive care unit, through conversations with thought-provoking guests.
