How Conventional Medicine Is Ruining Our Kids | Dr. Larry PalevskyTurn online alignment into an offline community — join us at TheWayFwrd.com to connect with like-minded people near you.We're watching an entire generation of children get sicker, and the medical system still won't admit it's out of answers. Parents see it. Practitioners see it. And the gap between real-world patterns and the official explanations around childhood illness keeps widening.In this episode, Dr. Larry Palevsky breaks down the observations that pushed him to question the pediatric model from within. Standard protocols weren't helping. Some interventions were making symptoms worse. And the infection-based framework he was trained to follow simply didn't explain the chronic inflammation, neurodevelopmental issues, or immune dysregulation showing up in real kids.Looking for clarity, he stepped outside the conventional lane—into nutrition, Chinese medicine, chiropractic, reiki, herbology, and other holistic approaches that offered a fuller picture of children's health. That search opened deeper questions about vaccine ingredients, aluminum adjuvants, immune overload, environmental toxicity, and whether our definition of “infection” actually matches what's happening inside children's bodies.This conversation is for anyone who already knows the system is breaking kids—and wants the language, context, and coherence to understand why, and what truly supports long-term health.You'll Learn:[00:00:00] Introduction[00:06:23] The lost art of Clinical Medicine[00:07:38] The emergency room revelation about ear infections and antibiotics[00:12:21] Discovering the concept of "the body has the innate capacity to heal"[00:17:09] Using reiki in the delivery room to save babies[00:23:24] The pivotal moment a mother asked about mercury in vaccines[00:26:42] The premature baby saved by fish oil[00:33:14] Why Dr. Larry stopped vaccinating and started educating[00:42:18] The troubling science of aluminum adjuvants in vaccines[01:03:08] Three brain regions where nanoparticles travel[01:06:29] What sorbitol in MMR might actually be doing[01:18:21] Why vaccines are "safe and effective" is the wrong debate[01:24:10] The real contagion theory no one talks about[01:34:07] Acute illness is rarely an infection[01:48:42] The 15-year-old diagnosed with autism who actually had addiction[01:41:59] The autism debate, diagnostic labels, and the dozen causes of brain injury in children[02:04:26] The parenting advice that sounds cruel but builds resilience[02:08:40] What "making children well again" actually requires [02:22:15] Symptoms are just the body doing its job[02:16:53] The two-part vision: reforming pediatrics and reclaiming allopathic medicineResources Mentioned:Danish Study on 1.2 Million Children Settles the Vaccine-Autism Debate | ArticleCan You Catch A Cold?

This week's episode is part two of the whispers from the five spirits of Chinese Medicine. In part one, we covered the Shen, the spirit of the heart and fire element, the Hun, the spirit of the liver and wood element, and the Yi, the spirit of the spleen/stomach and earth element. Now, we are diving into two aspects of the soul which exist within the earthly aspects of our entire being: the Po and the Zhi. The Po is the spirit of the lungs and the metal element. The Zhi is the spirit of the kidneys and water element. They become activated when we are born from our mother's wombs, and they return to the Earth when our body dies. Highlights: - What we can experience when these spirits are in disturbance and when they're in harmony - Simple ways to access these aspects of your spirits and enable harmony within them - The spirit animal related to each spirit, and their lore within ancient Chinese culture Related Episodes: Whispers of the Five Spirits of Chinese Medicine p 2 Whispers of Qi and BloodWhispers of Exploring Religion, Philosophy, and Mysticism with Jonas KilkerIf you'd like to work with me and/or connect: Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com DISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.

For so many women, sexuality and intimacy feel like the missing piece in living a fully embodied life, especially as we age. Our culture rarely teaches us how to move past the superficial and toward deeper pleasure, healing, and connection. In this episode, longtime teachers and practitioners of tantric and somatic healing, Leah Piper and Dr. Willow Brown, join us to demystify tantra, explore its potential for personal transformation and show how it can help us gently release even the oldest wounds we've been carrying. We'll unpack:What tantra actually is, beyond buzzwords, and how it turns sex into soul-to-soul connection and prayerSimple, practical ways to shift from goal-oriented sex to intentional intimacyWhy so many women hold emotional weight in their bodies and how to begin clearing grief, numbness, and old stories to make room for pleasureWhy women carry so much in their bodies and how to begin to release old wounds, grief, and numbness to make space for pleasureThe science behind the nervous system's role in pleasure and healing, and how ritualized practices can help us release what's no longer serving usWhy giving your own sexuality permission and curiosity is the gateway to up-leveling every relationship in your lifeOUR GUESTS: Dr. Willow Brown and Leah Piper are leaders in tantric, somatic, and holistic sexual healing whose combined decades of experience have helped individuals reclaim deeper pleasure, embodiment, and emotional freedom. Dr. Willow Brown, a Doctor of Chinese Medicine, weaves ancient Taoist philosophy with sexual and spiritual practices to open the body's innate pleasure pathways and facilitate profound cellular and somatic transformation.

We tend to think of eyesight as a technical problem—retinas, optics, refractive errors, clearer lenses. But eyes don't just see—they interpret. They blur when the world feels too intrusive, or sharpen when clarity feels like safety. The eyes are woven through with story, memory, emotion, and the ways we've learned to look—or to look away.In this conversation with Dr. Marc Grossman, optometrist, acupuncturist, and lifelong investigator of vision, we explore how eyesight is more than biology—it's biography. He's spent decades asking not just what eye problems are, but why they appear in this person, at this moment, in this way. His work lives at the intersection of physiology, psychology, Chinese medicine, and the soul's need to see clearly—not just out into the world, but into one's own experience and heart.Listen into this discussion as we explore how nearsightedness can emerge from emotional overwhelm, why some people develop tension in just one eye, how the optic nerve can reflect sensitivity and empathy, and why prescriptions sometimes don't correct—but instead freeze—a moment in our story.This isn't a conversation about fixing eyes. It's about recognizing eyesight as a living conversation between body, spirit, and the world we orient ourselves toward. It reminds us that inquiry—not protocol—is often the most powerful medicine.

Chinese medicine may help explain why stored trauma causes old patterns to resurface when we least expect it. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Lorne Brown, a leader in integrative reproductive health and Chinese medicine who brings 25 years of clinical experience to the conversation. We explore the concept of qi stagnation and how it aligns with chronic functional freeze. Dr. Brown explains why the body stores overwhelming experiences in layers as a survival mechanism, and why that strategy begins to unravel around midlife when our resources shift. If you're in perimenopause or menopause and noticing old symptoms or emotions stirring again, this conversation offers a new lens for understanding what the body is trying to communicate. In this episode you'll learn: [00:02:00] The Body's Layered Storage System: How Chinese medicine understands stored trauma as a three-layer defense mechanism designed to protect our vital organs [00:05:30] Why Around Age 40, Everything Changes: The body stops using resources to suppress stored energy and begins asking us to finally process it [00:08:00] Perimenopause as a Tipping Point: Why hormone fluctuations shrink our window of tolerance and reveal what we've been holding [00:11:32] The Second Spring: Chinese medicine's perspective on menopause as a spiritual awakening where resources redirect to the heart center [00:13:24] Qi Stagnation & Functional Freeze: The connection between stuck energy and chronic patterns of protection in the nervous system [00:17:00] The Radio Metaphor: How emotions are meant to move through us like a song, and what happens when we hit repeat [00:21:14] When Healed Trauma Returns: Why perimenopause can bring back symptoms and emotions we thought we'd resolved [00:28:40] Safety as the Foundation: Why Chinese medicine agrees that creating safety is the essential first step for allowing stagnation to move [00:34:44] Sound, Laser & Frequency Medicine: Tools that bypass the mind and work directly with the cells and nervous system [00:43:07] Notice, Accept, Choose Again: Dr. Brown's NAC process for metabolizing uncomfortable feelings and restoring flow Main Takeaways Emotions are the number one cause of disease in Chinese medicine. The classic Stored trauma is intelligent, not broken. The body stores overwhelming experiences to protect us. This isn't a fault—it's a brilliant survival mechanism that keeps strong emotions from reaching vital organs where serious disease develops. Around age 40, the body changes its strategy. Resources that once kept difficult experiences suppressed get redirected toward longevity. The body essentially says: "You're not four anymore. It's time to deal with this." Perimenopause reveals capacity gaps. Hormone fluctuations create internal stress. If our window of tolerance is already narrow, perimenopause shrinks it further—and stored patterns surface as symptoms. Qi stagnation is functional freeze. When we resist, suppress, or fight what we feel, energy gets stuck in tissues. When we allow feelings to move through us, we restore flow and health. Safety creates the conditions for release. Without felt safety, the body contracts and stagnation deepens. Creating safety—through breath, movement, acupuncture, sound—allows the system to finally let go. The healing journey is ongoing. If something still triggers a somatic response, there's more work to do. This isn't failure—it's an opportunity to clean up the system and restore flow. Notable Quotes "It's not always the situation that causes the experience inside. It's how you perceive it." "When we're children, we don't have the capacity to process and metabolize these strong emotions. But as we get older, the body eventually says, you need to deal with this." "It's in the name—emotion. Energy in motion. So emotions are you feeling the flow of qi in your body." "You have to feel it to heal it. And if you resist it, it persists." "I don't care if you've worked it a million times. If it still has a somatic response, that's your message from your body that you get to work it one million and one times." Episode Takeaway This conversation gave me language for something I've felt in my own body for years. Dr. Brown's explanation of why the body stores overwhelming experiences in layers—and why it eventually stops spending resources to keep them hidden—makes so much sense when I think about what happens around midlife. For so long, I resisted my own freeze response. I hated it. I didn't want to accept it or feel it. And yet it was always there, waiting for me. What I've come to understand, and what Dr. Brown articulates so beautifully through the lens of Chinese medicine, is that resistance creates stagnation. Fighting what we feel amplifies it. The invitation here isn't to dig up the past or analyze every event. It's simpler than that: when something surfaces, can we notice it without taking it personally? Can we let it move through rather than hitting repeat? Our body has been protecting us brilliantly. Now it's asking us to finally tend to what it's been holding. That's not a setback—that's partnership. Resources/Guides: Biology of Trauma book — Available now everywhere books are sold.

In this episode of Toxic Silence, we explore one of the most surprising and intimate relationships in the body:the connection between the Heart and the tongue.In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Heart “opens to the tongue,” governing speech, truth-telling, and the Shen — the light of spirit that animates us. And modern science is now confirming what the classics have always known: nearly half of the body's bitter taste receptors are not on the tongue… but on the human heart.Together we explore:Why bitter is the elemental flavour of the HeartHow the tongue reveals the emotional state of the ShenWhat bitterness means emotionally, energetically, and physiologicallyHow grief, joy, anxiety, or suppression change someone's voice and toneWhy patients are shocked when they realise their tongue has been telling their heart's storyHow modern genetics is validating ancient Chinese wisdomThis episode bridges ancient lineage and modern science to help you understand:your Heart has been speaking through your tongue all along.My Guest today is Dr. Maz Roginski. A Doctor of Chinese Medicine and an expert in Qi, the life-force energy that animates every system of the body. Drawing from 13 years of clinical experience, she blends classical Chinese Medicine with modern science to create precise, embodied rituals that restore vitality, radiance and inner coherence. Her work treats the whole system — nervous system, hormones, digestion, body, mind and soul — through the lens of Qi.Having rebuilt her own health through the practices she now teaches, Maz guides clients through profound whole-system resets that reignite clarity, resilience and aliveness. Her mission is simple: to help people return to their life force and remember themselves as part of the great flow of nature.LinksWEBSITE http://drmaz.earthPOD - Balanced Natural HealthApple https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/balanced-natural-health-with-dr-maz/id1490364806Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/7oqV2zCD7rr9PGJGJDv2ke?si=c6d5f13b0eb64267IG, YT, Telegram - drmaz_qiFB - drmaz.qiToxic Silence Playlist - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1UsNwZQP74SbTAsin5aXr9?si=3aqbjsx3TeGouLn-U9a7og&nd=1&dlsi=4c8ffc5d2ad24cdd 

Why do so many people feel emotionally flat, disconnected, or joyless even when life looks “successful” on the outside? In this episode, we explore the Chinese Medicine Fire Element, the Heart, and the growing crisis of mediated happiness, burnout, and flat depression in the modern world.The Heart in Chinese Medicine is more than an organ—it is the home of the Shen (spirit), the center of joy, meaning, connection, and emotional coherence. When the Fire Element is balanced, life feels warm, meaningful, inspired, and alive. When it is disturbed, people may feel chronically numb, restless, depressive, over-stimulated, or trapped in external validation and endless striving.We explore:• Why modern happiness often feels empty and unsatisfying• The difference between pleasure, dopamine, and true joy• How “working for infinity” burns out the Heart• Flat depression and emotional numbness through the Fire Element lens• How the Heart protects itself through withdrawal, shutdown, and over-stimulation• What a balanced Heart actually feels like• How real joy returns when Fire is regulated, not exploitedThis conversation bridges Chinese Medicine, psychology, nervous system regulation, somatic experience, modern culture, and spiritual development—offering a deeper understanding of why so many people feel emotionally exhausted in a world obsessed with stimulation and productivity.

Do you automatically reach for icy drinks, ice cream and giant salads as soon as the weather heats up – then wonder why you feel heavy and your gut doesn't feel great?In this episode of The Eating for You Podcast, I am joined again by Chinese medicine practitioner and Qigong teacher Tania Grasseschi, based in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney. Together we explore how to eat in summer so you feel cool, calm and nourished – without putting out your “digestive fire” or getting caught in diet rules.From a Chinese medicine perspective, summer is the most yang season – warm, active and drying – and is linked to the fire element and heart energy. Tania and I unpack what that means in everyday terms: the kinds of foods and cooking styles that support digestion in hot weather, why raw and icy foods can be a problem in excess, and how to use bitter and cooling foods in a balanced way.We also discuss “heat” as inflammation, how processed foods, alcohol, caffeine, stress and a sedentary lifestyle contribute to chronic heat in the body, and why self-care has to include sleep, movement, emotional awareness, not just what you put on your plate. You'll hear how Qigong, mindful breathing before meals, and honouring your body's natural rhythms can all support healthier summer eating.If you've ever wondered, “What should I actually eat in hot weather so I feel well?” This conversation is for you.In this episode, you'll learn:☀️ How Chinese medicine views summer—yang, fire, heart energy, cooling foods, and protecting digestive fire through seasonal eating.

Traditional Chinese medicine looks at your sex life very differently than Western medicine and honestly, it's VERY refreshing. In this episode, we're joined by Jaiming Ju, a 2nd-generation Chinese medicine practitioner and founder of Kun Health, to talk about how TCM understands libido, pain during sex, ED, arousal, and overall sexual wellbeing. We get into body patterns, energy balance, lifestyle habits, and what your symptoms are actually trying to tell you. We cover: How Chinese medicine understands sex and pleasure. Jaiming explains why sexual health is seen as a major indicator of overall wellbeing, not an isolated issue. Why pain during sex is never “just in your head”. How TCM views dryness, pelvic pain, tension, and discomfort and why it's almost always linked to imbalance, depletion, or circulation issues. Understanding libido changes. How arousal, desire, and lubrication map to warmth, energy, and hormonal patterns + how aging, stress, lifestyle, and depletion impact the body. ED from a TCM perspective. Why erections are about circulation, warmth, and “yang energy,” and what it means when interest and performance don't match. Tongue diagnosis and what it reveals about your sex life. Yes, your tongue really can show dryness, heat, coldness, stress patterns, or issues affecting libido. Why stress and exhaustion shut down desire. How nervous system overload, burnout, and irregular routines drain the body's resources and impact arousal. Practical pleasure support from a Chinese medicine lens. Food, warmth, routines, habits, and small changes that help your body feel safer, softer, and more responsive during sex. How to support long-term sexual health at every age. Daily practices Jaiming recommends to maintain circulation, lubrication, desire, and overall balance. Connect with Jaiming HERE!

Some people find acupuncture after a twisted ankle, a twist of fate, or some stubborn health condition that finally surrenders to a few needles. But every now and then you meet someone who caught the spark early—before the world had a chance to talk them out of their own curiosity.In this conversation with Will Martin, we trace the path of a high-school kid who dove headfirst into Chinese medicine—ordering textbooks at sixteen, poring over ideas he could barely pronounce, and never letting that fascination go. Will brings a mix of youthful boldness and genuine reverence for the medicine. He's thoughtful about the landscape of healthcare, clear-eyed about the challenges in our field, and articulate in how he sees acupuncture stepping more fully into the role of primary care.Listen into this discussion as we explore why he thinks the medicine needs less defensiveness and more confidence, what it means to keep your treatments simple, how to stand in your authority as a new practitioner, and why the future of acupuncture might be brighter than we've been telling ourselves.

The Metal element in Chinese MEdicine reveals why humans struggle with grief, fairness, justice, and the craving for righteousness. Yet beneath the surface these noble qualities lies a powerful shadow: structure that can turn into rigidity, discernment becoming judgement and order shifting into propaganda and the pursuit of power for control.Great episode for those looking to explore psychology, spirituality and emotional patterns.

Punk rock and Chinese medicine might seem worlds apart, but both pushed back on dominant systems. Punk challenged the mainstream music industry; Chinese medicine, the dominance of biomedicine. Each created space for alternative voices, for people questioning authority and rewriting the rules.In this conversation with Tyler Phan, we explore how rebellion, identity, and power intersect in the making of American Chinese medicine. His research looks at how a healing tradition that arrived through the Chinese diaspora was caught by the imagination of white countercultural movements, shaped by state regulation, and often distanced from the very communities that carried it here.Listen into this discussion as we unpack Foucault's ideas of power, the counterculture's fascination with the East, the formation of professional standards, and how the DIY ethos of punk still hums beneath it all.Tyler's perspective challenges us to see that medicine is never just about healing—it's also about who gets to define what counts as knowledge, and who that power ultimately serves.

Imagine an Anarcho-libertarian future wherein philosophy, reason, and science prevail. The cathedrals of corruption looming over every nation, governments have been replaced by direct democracy on an unhackable blockchain. And with the absence of the state, perverse economic incentives, monopolies, and dogma in healthcare. In that future, will traditional allopathic medicine and healthcare be relegated to the dustbin of history and replaced entirely by frequency medicine?That's the question I explore with Dr. Zulia Frost. I interview the woman behind the Flexbeam, my favorite red light therapy device, and Clinical Director of Recharge Health. She is a world-renowned expert in neuromodulation and photobiomodulation. Her professional profile is distinguished by three decades of direct patient care - blending Western medicine with traditional modalities (Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture) and rigorous academic training, providing an authoritative lens through which to examine the burgeoning field of wearable photobiomodulation.1:22 About Dr. Zulia Frost3:48 Will allopathic medicine be replaced by frequency medicine?6:35 A case for optimism about the future8:13 Her story - a wounded healer12:53 Traditional chinese medicine and acupuncture22:04 Red light therapy cofactors24:48 Recent red light therapy science30:16 Red light therapy for sleep33:06 Red light therapy vs S.A.D.36:09 Methylene blue and red light therapy39:24 Parenting questions: red light therapy for babies (and boobies)?45:58 My experience with the FlexBeam51:45 The Recharge Health community53:15 Convincing the stubborn (and suffering) to try alternative medicine?58:06 Rant on subscription-servicization of Biohacking productsRead

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our conversation with Anthony DiSalvo, Maria's personal acupuncturist and California Board-Certified Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner, and this one's all about real-life healing tools you can use daily. In this episode, Anthony breaks down how to naturally relieve constipation, allergies, and hormonal imbalances through simple acupressure points, herbal support, and daily habits. He also shares how hot water therapy can transform digestion, what your cravings reveal about your body, and how Chinese medicine helps with fertility, postpartum recovery, and UTIs. Maria and Anthony dive into how consistency and self-discipline are the secret ingredients for healing, and why you don't need to rely only on external treatments to feel better. You'll learn how to reconnect with your body, support your organs, and build harmony from the inside out! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Consistency creates healing. Acupressure isn't a one-time fix, it's a daily dialogue with your body. The more you show up, the faster your system learns to rebalance on its own. Hot water is medicine. Swapping cold drinks for warm or hot water soothes digestion, boosts circulation, and relaxes your body from the inside out. Healing allergies starts with strengthening your organs. Instead of masking symptoms, support your lungs, liver, and spleen so your immune system can finally calm and reset. Your hormones want harmony, not control. Chinese medicine works with your natural cycles to ease PMS, improve fertility, and make transitions like perimenopause smoother. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Thrive Causemetics: https://thrivecausemetics.com/healsquad Get 20% OFF with this link!  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tlcholisticlife/?hl=en  Website: https://www.yudayimedicine.com/about-anthony-disalvo You can check out his courses here! https://courses.yudayimedicine.com/tlc-holistic-life ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

In this episode, Dr. Greg Jones talks with Dr. Tom Ingengno, a Doctor of Acupuncture, author of The Cupping Book, and founder of Charm City Integrative Health. Together, they explore the surprising science behind cupping therapy, from its ancient roots to how it's finding a place in modern integrative medicine.Dr. Tom shares how a family memory led him from pre-med to acupuncture, the evolution of cupping practices across cultures, and the science that supports its benefits for circulation, inflammation, and even anxiety.

This week's episode is part 1 of a two-part series about the 5 spirits within Chinese medicine. In this medicine, there is no separation of mind, body, spirit, and emotions in diagnosis and treatment. It's why this medicine is extremely effective in treating nearly any ailment one could experience. Working with the spirits of Chinese Medicine is another one of the many ways that we can improve our health, remember why we came here, and find fulfillment and liberation within this life. Within this episode, we dive into the Shen, also known as the spirit of the Heart and the fire element, the spirit of the Hun, aka spirit of the Liver and the wood element, and the spirit of the Spleen/Stomach and the earth element.We discuss what it feels and looks like when these spirits are in harmony or in disturbance and well as the different seasons, movements, colors, emotions, acupuncture points and characters or spirit guides associated with each spirit.

On today's show, I am excited to sit down with Dr. Josh Axe and Jordan Rubin to explore their new book The Biblio Diet, a powerful blend of biblical health principles and modern functional medicine.

We also talk about her new book, The Concussion Breakthrough, and how it's helping patients who've been struggling with long-term symptoms finally find a path forward.If you want a deeper understanding of how the brain heals — and how functional neurology can help you or someone you know recover faster and more completely — you'll get a ton out of this conversation.Sponsors:Beyond Power Voltra 1: https://www.beyond-power.com/michael13Tecton Ketone Esters: https://tectonketones.comAvailable now:Grab a copy of the Triphasic Training II book I co-wrote with Cal Deitz here.Episode Chapters:00:46 Exploring Functional Neurology01:23 Concussions and Eye Movements02:09 Dr. Wolf's Book and Newsletter02:42 Starting the Conversation02:49 Dr. Wolf's Lecture at Northwestern03:40 Better PowerPoint Presentation Tips04:29 Challenges of Creating New Talks05:57 AI in Research and Presentation07:22 Cadaver Lab Experience in Toronto09:07 Acupuncture and Anatomical Research09:54 History and Acceptance of Chinese Medicine11:47 Skepticism and Evidence in Acupuncture13:41 Research Design Challenges17:18 Innovative Acupuncture Studies21:34 Psychedelics and Research23:15 Dr. Wolf's Journey into Acupuncture27:08 Favorite Herbs and Their Benefits29:16 Introduction to Functional Neurology33:18 Case Studies and Clinical Insights35:59 Sensory Tricks for Migraines38:13 Mechanisms Behind Sensory Tricks39:32 Light Sensitivity and the Midbrain40:45 Personal Experience with a Health App41:31 Understanding Light Sensitivity42:59 Case Study: Pupil Response and Eye Pain44:09 Eye Movements & Concussion Diagnosis47:06 Gaze Stability and Neurological Insights52:19 The Concussion Breakthrough Book55:45 Complex Cases in Functional Neurology01:04:27 Visual + Vestibular Integration01:14:55 Final Thoughts and Resources Flex Diet Podcasts You May Enjoy: Episode 132: The Effects of Creatine Supplements on Brain Function, Concussion, and Sports Performance with Dr Eric RawsonYouTube: https://youtu.be/g7f8yHNlawU Episode 311: Maximizing Athletic Performance with Neurology: Insights from Dr. Dylan SeeleyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnuYQ-GJ6toConnect with Dr Wolf:The Concussion Breakthrough: https://www.amazon.com/Concussion-Breakthrough-Discover-Missing-Recovery/dp/B0FDBLVDVHWebsite: https://www.acupunctureneurology.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ayla_wolf354Get In Touch with Dr Mike:Instagram: DrmiketnelsonYouTube: @flexdietcertEmail: Miketnelson.com/contact-us

In today's webinar, Tom read the first chapter of a new writing project: Principles of New Biology, a foundational exploration of how life is formed and maintained through wave-like, electromagnetic forces rather than random chemistry.He discussed how traditional systems like Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda recognized this creative process—long before modern science abandoned the concept of a creator or blueprint—and how our health depends on remaining faithful to the original “word” or organizing frequency that gives us form.Q&A topics included:- Is DNA testing accurate?- What is the role of heat (fever, hot flashes) in healing?- Crystalline structure and species resonance- Cavitations and dental healing- Straphanthus and its safety with cardiac medications- Hydroxychloroquine, quercetin, and ivermectin – what do they really do?- The role of electromagnetic fields in heart function and circulation- Updated insights since Human Heart, Cosmic HeartSupport the showWebsites:https://drtomcowan.com/https://www.drcowansgarden.com/https://newbiologyclinic.com/https://newbiologycurriculum.com/Instagram: @TalkinTurkeywithTomFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrTomCowan/Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/CivTSuEjw6Qp/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzxdc2o0Q_XZIPwo07XCrNg

"I reclaimed my Power to create. ... There's no amount of suffering that is beyond what can't be healed." Dr. Angela Le Dr. Angela Le specializes in women's reproductive and hormonal health through acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, and Somatic Experiencing. In 2014, Angela was going through a Dark Night of the Soul. She was desperate. She then remembered hearing about the Hoffman Process twenty years earlier. Feeling great relief to finally ask for help, she registered and then arrived for her Process three weeks later. In hindsight, Angela shares she "would have had a miserable life" if she hadn't done the Process. But she wanted something more. Angela as a baby “There was just this fortitude in me that wanted more and actually knew I could have more, but I was just in this cycle and this pattern that needed major disruption, and that's really what Hoffman was, for me. It just disrupted patterns in a way that allowed for tremendous change and transformation." On the other side of the Process, Angela found that one of the gifts of doing the Process was that it “opened up the permission field to have a different experience." She learned that she had the power within her to change her own experience. These many years later, Angela has come to embrace the mystery of life. Letting go of the need to control, to be good, to be "all the things," has ushered in a new way to live. The change she found through the Process brought a reclamation of her power to create. At its root, the work Angela does supports and heals the deepest of creativity - that of women's reproduction. Angela, a healer, experienced healing through her Process, and she, in turn, deepened her ability to heal others through her love's everyday radius.

Host Risa Morimoto interviews TCM (Tradtional Chinese Medicine) food therapist and registered dietician Zoey Xinyi Gong, who combines ancient Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles with modern nutrition science to dive deep into the world of food therapyZoey, a dietician and author based in Shanghai, shares her personal healing journey and explains that TCM is a holistic approach focused on solving the root imbalance rather than just treating symptoms, leading to improvements in physical health and mood. Unlike Western nutrition, which relies on quantitative goals like counting calories and vitamins, TCM focuses on qualitative goals such as balancing hot, cold, warm, and cooling energetics in a highly individualized manner. The audience will learn how to identify their body's constitution, distinguishing between imbalances like coldness (manifesting as fatigue or cold joints) and heat (which may manifest as hot flashes or anxiety) by recognizing associated symptom patterns. Additionally, listeners will discover how to use specific common foods and powerful medicinal herbs, such as cooling cucumbers to treat heat, or bone broth and spices like cinnamon to treat coldness, and how rose tea can help relieve liver Chi stagnation.

Dr. Amy Albright is a Doctor of Chinese Medicine and clairvoyant healer with 23 years of experience reading and transforming the human energy field. She's the co-founder of Holon, where she partners with leading neuroscientists to deliver intensive neurological transformation retreats that produce EEG-verified brain changes in just four days.But here's what makes Amy different: she doesn't believe in processing trauma. She believes in paradigm shifts so profound that the wound doesn't just heal—it disappears entirely, leaving you stronger, wiser, and more expansive than before.Most of us have been taught that healing means understanding our problems, labeling our pathologies, and slowly working through the pain. But what if that's the exact reason we stay stuck? What if the mind's need to process keeps us trapped in the story, while the energetic body holds the key to instant liberation? In this transformative conversation, Raj and Amy dismantle everything you thought you knew about healing and reveal the quantum mechanics of true transformation.In this episode, discover:• Why most healing modalities keep you stuck in your story—and what actually creates lasting change • The "tailbone technique" that activates biological safety in seconds (you can do this anywhere) • How to identify when you're truly healed vs. when you're still carrying trauma you don't realize • Why "processing" emotions mentally keeps you trapped—and what the energetic alternative looks like • The "coordinates method" for flipping paradigms instantly instead of analyzing problems for years • How to hold space for others' pain without getting pulled into their suffering • The foundational ingredients required for transformation that most people miss entirely • Why becoming grounded means remembering you're an "endless soul on an infinite journey"You are not broken. You never were. You are an energetic being capable of quantum shifts that transcend everything you thought was fixed. This conversation will show you how to stop swimming in circles and start embodying the freedom that's already yours.Connect with Dr. Amy:Instagram: @dramyalbrightWebsite: https://www.holonexperience.com/Connect with Raj:Website: http://www.rajjana.com/Instagram: @raj_janaSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/22Hrw6VWfnUSI45lw8LJBPYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@raj_janaLegal Disclaimer: The information and opinions discussed in this podcast are for educational and entertainment purposes only.
