In this episode, I spoke with Pierce Salguero, Ph.D., about his new book Buddhish: A Guide to the 20 Most Important Buddhist Ideas for the Curious and Skeptical, published this year by Beacon Press. Pierce is a Professor of Asian History and Religious Studies at Pennsylvania State University, and is Editor-in-Chief of Asian Medicine: Journal of the International Association for the Study of Traditional Asian Medicine. Pierce received his PhD in the History of Medicine at at John Hopkins School of Medicine, his Masters of East Asian Studies at the University of Virginia. He is a transdisciplinary scholar who is fascinated by historical and contemporary intersections between Buddhism, medicine, and cross-cultural exchange. He is a prolific scholar and has a fascinating background that includes a former career as a practitioner of Traditional Thai Medicine, along with having been a monastic for a few years in the Thai Buddhist Forest tradition. We had a fascinating discussion about his new book Buddhish – and how approaches this topic in ways that offer newcomers – both those curious and the skeptics – a way to get tour-bus ride of the vast terrain of Buddhist philosophical ideas and practices across various schools and traditions.

You've learned Polyvagal basics, the states of protection, the state of connection but did you realize there are blended states? In today's final recap Maegan, Cameron and Lauren discuss the nuances of blended states which are more common than you might realize. And then just to take it up a notch we play a bit with the idea of the Vagal Brake. This biological function is exactly what permits mobilization without fight or flight. In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.
In addition to your two states of survival, your nervous autonomic nervous system has one state for connection. That state is the ventral vagal state. It is where you not only feel a connection with yourself but also desires connection with others. In today's third recap session you will hear more about this state and how Cameron, Maegan, and I use people, places, and activities to anchor ourselves in ventral vagal. In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.
Your nervous system comes well equipped with two states of survival. One of those is the sympathetic state that provides you with the energy to fight or flee and the other state allows you to disconnect and is called the dorsal vagal state. Knowing the terms is one thing but learning what they feel like is another. Step into our second recap session and hear how Cameron, Maegan, and I experience each of these states and what that might mean for you. In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.
Catch this first of four review episodes in our months of polyvagal explorations. Today we go back to basics and look at the terms hierarchy, neuroception, and co-regulation and what they have come to mean for us. In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.
When your autonomic nervous system sends you into a place of a shutdown and disconnect what do you crave? I believe you need reminders that you exist. What those look like for you might be different for me because of our different trauma histories. That is exactly why an individualized approach to trauma is critical. In this episode, we explore this idea and more diving deeper into discovering pathways to heal complex trauma. In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.
This week on the BrainTap Business Journal Podcast we sat down with Naturopathic doctor, Val Franc. Dr. Val has a passion for helping people achieve levels of health and human performance they never thought possible through proper nutrition and lifestyle choices.

Her newest book (coming soon), Starved, Poisoned and Lied To, confronts the current food industry and the damage it’s doing to our bodies on a daily basis. What You’ll Learn: -How to avoid the over 40 hormone imbalances that cause weight gain, fatigue, and lack of energy -How you can reverse the aging process naturally -The one antioxidant that is integral for good health and vitality -How the weight loss industry is lying to you -How to gain vitality through nutrition -The three questions to ask yourself before consuming any food Links: Beyond Botox Workshop: https://drvalfranc.com/services/workshops/?fbclid=IwAR1wJtlQhjEsHNkpvCaqIbK6dPQ6zIQGHwlfrgUKyXtZ0lEn309SnEU0gsg Website: https://drvalfranc.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drvalfrancnd To schedule a Fireside Chat with Dr. Val: https://secure.massagezone.biz/synergynaturopathic39/?page=tpltsched2_req&pageid=42382&sessionType=&id=
Deb Dana shares with us that the dorsal vagal pathway responds to cues of a life-threat, causing us to shut down, become numb, and disconnect from others. But what are the different flavors of dorsal vagal and what does that state ask from us? Those are the questions I can not stop asking myself and others who share my interest in Polyvagal Theory. Step into the room with Cameron and I as we explore these themes together. In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.
Do you or someone you love suffer from the effects of developmental or complex trauma? If so you won't want to miss a minute of this conversation. Listen in as we make serious inroads into understanding the subtle but significant challenges that disrupt the process of healing trauma. Six months ago we set out to explore what Polyvagal Theory could add to what we already knew about Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy. We knew for certain that our current tools weren't reaching all the nooks and crannies where trauma likes to hide. But what could we discover by blending all three together? Might we be able to better meet individuals where they are with exactly the energy that would provide the necessary cues of safety? While we don't claim to have all of the answers we are closer than ever before. In this organic series, Gemmotherapy expert and educator Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp, and the Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the blended use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.
This new year deserves our pausing to consider what in our day to day interactions could benefit from some updating. In today's episode, we consider updates for a few everyday words. Listen in to our conversation as we explore words like vision, invite, and allow and revision them together. In this organic series, Health educator and Gemmotherapy expert Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp and Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection. The polyvagal theory helps us build an understanding of emotional patterns enough to interrupt them and change the ways in which we habitually react.
You won't want to miss this pilot episode offering live support to Art teacher and mom Ashley Dalme, who is finding the continued challenges of the pandemic weigh her down. You"ll hear our suggestions from the Polyvagal, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy lens. In this organic series, Health educator and Gemmotherapy expert Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp and Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection. The polyvagal theory helps us build an understanding of emotional patterns enough to interrupt them and change the ways in which we habitually react.
We're back and so excited to share our holiday tales and lessons learned. Pour a cup a tea and come along on our Polyvagal adventure as we out brief together what worked and what didn't this holiday season. In this organic series, Health educator and Gemmotherapy expert Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp and Passionate Polyvagalist Cameron Scott explore the use of the Polyvagal Theory, Asian Medicine and Gemmotherapy extracts to restore a sense of safety and connection.

In today's episode you will discover how to get some of that goodness for yourself. With all that 2020 continues to deliver you might want to listen in to our conversation and take some notes. This one's packed with Asian Medicine, Polyvagal, and Gemmotherapy resources you will want to access for yourself and your loved ones. The polyvagal theory is the masterful work of Dr. Stephen Porges that in short, helps us see and understand habitual emotional patterns enough to interrupt them. In this organic series of on the spot learning, Health educator and Gemmotherapy expert Lauren Hubele, Japanese Acupuncturist Maegan Lemp guests explore the use of the Polyvagal Theory as a guide for selecting extracts.
Steeped In the Ten Thousand Things: a research digest & integrative medical discussion
During this week's episode, we begin looking at a paper to learn what the 'syndemics' model of disease is, why it reminds us of East Asian medical approaches and perspectives, and how the concept of "Damp" might be a valued concept to include in addressing complex 'biosocial' complexes of disease formation and complication. We follow up by talking about the challenges of identifying with 'Chinese Medicine' in a politically complicated time, the value of building trust between doctor and patient, and how acupuncture can be a type of exposure-therapy to therapeutic 'trauma' or discomfort. We end the discussion by focusing on the current solar term named "Autumn Begins", which marks a clear transition from Summer to Autumn and comes with a list of ways (including a soup like this) to offset Damp-Heat conditions in the weather/climate and how to prepare mentally for the arrival of Winter.

"It's said in Tibetan medicine that you have to have all five elements plus karma in order to be incarnated at all. So, even to obtain the precious human body you have to have all five elements in karma. So you're going to choose certain parents and situations. They're going to give you some genetic factors which are going to influence your inner elements and then also you're going to have the diet and the behavior that your mother has during your pregnancy is going to influence it. The outer environment is going to influence it and then very early on in life -- your life situations are also going to influence it. So, family systems, psychology, all of that has an impact on the choices we make. So, somebody could be inherently one type of being and perhaps their family system either didn't recognize or support that and so they made a choice in order to compensate on a psychological level." Special Guest: Nashalla Nyinda.

Natural Treatment For Menopause http://learntruehealth.com/menopause/ Weight Loss & Menopause With Herbs And Chinese Medicine I have Dana LaVoie here today to teach us about menopause. Even if you're not menopausal yet or past menopause, it is important to know this important stage in a woman's life. LaVoie is a licensed Acupuncturist and Herbalist practicing for about 14 years. Women's health and menopause are her specializations as well as in tonic herbs. There are so many of her clients who have benefitted so much from Chinese medicine. I remember my mom going through menopause and she for 5 years, only saw an Acupuncturist which is a traditional Chinese doctor. She was cooking herbs on the stove every day. I never saw her go through hot flashes. Hence, it was like she never went through menopause. It's amazing to see Natural Medicine give her so much relief. Consequently, if we're really healthy, we don't have to have symptoms. Understanding Menopause Weight loss is a hot issue around women of all ages but especially around menopause or during menopause. Most women complain of the sudden weight gain. "During menopause, your hormones are changing. If you're really healthy, your body will be able to keep hormones in balance. Your metabolism stays good," LaVoie said. Understanding Weight Loss & Weight Gain "If your body can't keep up, that's when you get the menopausal symptoms like weight gain," said LaVoie. "What you eat is a lot more than losing weight. Think of diet as a way of nourishing your body to be healthy. Only then it becomes a lifestyle." LaVoie suggests eating a warm, easy breakfast like congee is easy to digest. Congee is a Chinese comfort food that is easy to digest. It's grains that are cooked for a long time in a large amount of liquid. Like a porridge. "If you're having trouble losing weight, look at how much cold, raw or frozen food you're eating," explains LaVoie. "Because that puts out your digestive fire which is your metabolism. You can gain weight just by eating cold, raw or frozen food." My husband eats frozen organic blueberries. And he started gaining weight. He just eats a handful of cashews, some vegetables or meat or some eggs for breakfast. But whenever he eats frozen blueberries, he gains weight. LaVoie has a client with the same situation. The client's diet is smoothies made with fruits and ice, salads which are raw and cold, and yogurt yet she's still gaining weight. LaVoie immediately knew what the problem was. Hence, It was an easy fix. Foods For Certain Body Types I know Ayurvedic medicine is not Chinese medicine but I know they have identified different body personalities or 'dosha' wherein somebody types should eat more warm foods and another type. "There are people whose symptoms or problems they have, are primarily due to excess heat that they have inside their body," LaVoie said, "They have excess conditions caused by heat. Hence, they need to eat more raw or cooling foods." Furthermore, LaVoie explains that others have a body personality where digestion is a weak area. If they eat a lot of cold and cleansing food, they get half-digested. She says that accumulates and turns into weight gain. It's called 'phlegm' and 'dampness' in Chinese medicine. Fire And Water Energies LaVoie says a woman can feel hot for two reasons. You have fire and water energies in your body so sometimes when you feel hot, it means you don't have enough water. She says this is called deficiency fire. It tends to come and go in flashes usually worse at night. As a result, you tend to get dryness. Using herbal tonics to treat menopause, results are usually seen after a couple of weeks. But the first big change happens after 3 months. Anyone who starts a tonic herbal program, they first do a foundation combination of herbs for 99 days to cleanse and reset. That's how long the body cycles through the first big change. And then move on to the next phase. Avoiding Diet Pitfalls "You don't want your body to think you're in starvation mode. The primitive part of your brain starts to think something is wrong," LaVoie cautioned. "It takes 6 months for your metabolism to recover from being in that starvation mode." "Your brain chemistry starts to change and your hormones start to change. Your metabolism immediately starts to go down but your cravings go up. This increases your stress hormones," said LaVoie. LaVoie shares what Dr. Mark Hyman said on her blog, as to why diet fails. He says that the average person gains 11 pounds for every diet that they go on. And Dr. Hyman says when they lose weight, they lose muscle, not fat. When they gain weight back, it's all fat. "If you can just keep your metabolism up by not starving and instead of satiating yourself 5 times a day every 3 hours with nutritious food, weight loss is easier," concluded LaVoie. Boosting Metabolism La Voie's program is boosting metabolism naturally. While there are benefits from different kinds of fasting, the Chinese medicine approach to a healthy digestion is to eat regularly. "Insulin and sugar hugely contribute to weight gain. It ties in with the hormone cortisol, your stress hormone," LaVoie said. "If your insulin level is uneven it increases your stress hormone levels and inflammation." Earth Energy Furthermore, she explains that in Chinese medicine, your digestive system is considered your earth energy. It's where you make blood and your watery essence from. If your digestive system is poor, your body can't make blood and your watery essence. In menopause, watery essence controls the fire in our body, moisturizes our body and keeps you calm. "Without watery essence, your mood spikes and fly all over the place," LaVoie said. "Lack of watery essence leads to dry tendons, frozen shoulder, carpal tunnel and lack flexibility. Some women can also get dry eyes and mouth during menopause." Our mucous membranes also become dry and that leads to painful intercourse. Women are less likely to have a sex drive if they have all these imbalances. LaVoie also said that recurring urinary tract infection is really unpleasant. Because if your vaginal tissues are dry, they are less plump. So the opening becomes bigger. If they are plump, it's hard for bacteria to get in. Foods To Improve Water Essence LaVoie suggests that having a high amount of fruits and vegetables helps in making sure your water essence is sufficient. Because those foods are cooling and moistening. Pears, seeds, black beans are particularly good to include in your diet. She also said that as you approach menopause, there are estrogen-rich foods which are safe. Flax seeds, organic, fermented and non-GMO soy, as well as sesame seeds, are good. Healthy fats are going to be a great basis. Make sure you're not iron-deficient as well. When I was growing up, my mom took us to Dr. D' Adamo. James D'Adamo. The father of the original creator of the "Eat Right For Your Type" blood type book. Going to him growing up, he had us on this kick. He had us do this every morning---freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and his mysterious protein powder and flaxseed all blended together with our Vitamix. If you don't drink it fast enough, it turns to gel which I personally prefer. I never had a problem with constipation and I always had perfect digestion. LaVoie's Daily Morning Smoothie Here's what LaVoie puts in her warm smoothie which she drinks every morning. You can mix match the bases to give you a different flavor every day: Liquid - Water/ Coconut water/ nut milk/ herbal tea (make sure the liquid base is warm) Herbs - Herb capsules Seeds - flaxseeds/ chia/ sesame / Brazil nuts/ almonds Healthy fats - coconut oil/ egg yolk Spices - cinnamon / ginger/ ginger root (good for digestion) Protein powder - pea protein/whey protein from grass-fed cows Sweet fruit drops (alternative to stevia) Green powder Fruit powder Fruit Vegetables Superfoods Cocoa powder Pinch of salt Yogurt Herbal Program LaVoie noticed that the ones who benefits the most are the ones to take the herbs regularly for 3 months up to 2 years. She thought,'How can I make more people excited about taking their herbs more regularly?' So she created a program. The program is a one-on-one thing that is customized to your health goals and your budget. It is delivered to you every month. You have to use up all the herbs in the box before the next box comes. And then LaVoie usually calls in her clients and re-evaluate their progress after 3 months. There's also a weekly Q & A with her as well as a resource library. The program is very affordable so more women can avail of this program. LaVoie expanded it for menopausal clients. She came up with 16 herbal combinations specifically for menopause. Menopause Basics: What To Eat First of all, LaVoie says to eat a good diet and have a healthy lifestyle. Combine that with herbs and you get amazing results. "Eating the right foods is the way to start. In this program, everything you want to include in your diet to make your hormones balance naturally," said LaVoie. "Any age is ok. It's not a diet. This is just what to include in your diet." She adds, if you want to have coffee or doughnut, it's fine. But you need to balance it with healthy foods. You need to have them often enough. By getting that healthy food in your body, it evens out your hormones, energy, blood sugar and mood. LaVoie's 4-Steps To Hormonal Balance 1. What you include in your diet is more important that what you leave out. 2. By practicing stress management and eating protein and healthy fat often enough throughout the day, you can help balance cortisol and insulin levels, which helps your other hormones immensely. 3. Avoid the worst of the hormone disrupting chemicals. 4. Add adaptogenic superfoods into the diet. Finally, LaVoie advises," Adapt the Chinese medicine into your menopause. It's called the "second spring". If you get some healthy habits in place now, it will stay on track for the rest of your life." Dana LaVoie is the founder and creator of Menopause Basics.

"Creating a sanctuary for all spectrums of people to come together and heal" Jeff talking about Oakland Acupuncture Project. Jeff received his California acupuncture license and M.S. in Asian Medicine from AIMC in 2008. After a year of successfully working in private practice, Jeff decided to make a change. He met with the founders of Oakland Acupuncture Project (OAP), Roselle and Whitney, in 2009, to find out more about community acupuncture (CA). He started working at OAP in early 2010 as a substitute acupuncturist while still maintaining his private practice. By August 2010, they had hired him on for two permanent shifts. When the time came for him to open his own community clinic, they asked him to stay with the company and help them open a 2nd location on Grand Ave. Since then they have continued to grow. Oakland Acupuncture Project opened a third clinic location, Sacramento Acupuncture Project, in 2015. Aside from continuing to personally providing an average of 80 acupuncture treatments a week, Jeff oversee’s (with his co-owner Whitney) the operations of the three clinic locations and manage 8 permanent acupuncture employees and a handful of substitute acupuncturists. He started training staff in 2012. Since then he has refined all the training systems and have taught over 30 acupuncturists how to do CA the OAP way.

It's an online mini-course on how to get all the right building blocks into your diet for hormonal balancing during menopause. "I'm most passionate about discussing how setting the right foundation for diet & lifestyle paves the way for a woman's body to balance hormones naturally during menopause. It's then easy to add a few herbs on top of that for fantastic relief from Menopausal symptoms. I have a 4-Step plan that sets the foundation for hormonal balance. For many women, these 4 steps are enough to relieve hormonal symptoms. With this foundation in place, it becomes much easier to get relief by adding herbs, acupuncture, supplements, or any other method of hormonal balance. I also love to discuss herbs in general and the difference between medicinal and Tonic Herbs, whether it's for hormonal balancing, the immune system, or one of my favorite topics - anti-aging and longevity." Dana LaVoie's 4 steps to hormonal health: 1. Step 1 is that what you include in your diet is more important that what you leave out. (and I'll explain why and most important things to add in first) 2. Step 2 is lifestyle. By practicing stress management and eating protein and healthy fat often enough throughout the day, you can help balance cortisol and insulin levels, which helps your other hormones immensely. 3.Step 3 is avoiding the worst of the hormone disrupting chemicals. I would love to talk about where to find some of the really bad sneaky ones like the phthalates in artificial fragrance! 4. Step 4 is adding my favorite adaptogenic superfoods into the diet.
