Today, Commander Divine sits down with Melanie Sliwka, Certified Unbeatable Mind Coach, to discuss one of the most pressing issues of our time: mental health. This important episode covers a lot of ground, from the state of veterans' mental health to the best techniques to take our well-being into our own hands. Key Takeaways: Always remember to PBTA. Due to childhood trauma and other traumatic life events, most of us are operating in a constant hyper aroused state. (And for veterans, combat stress can exacerbate underlying trauma that already existed.) The acronym Pause, Breathe, Think and Act can be a literal life-saver to bring the body out of “fight or flight” and back into “rest and digest” mode. Who's your swim buddy? If you're having trouble managing your own internal dialogue and thinking processes, it's important to reach out to a positive person you can trust. Think about it right now: who is your go-to swim buddy when shit gets really bad? And how can you be someone else's swim buddy? Pharmaceutical drugs are a short-term solution. The rate of suicide among those who are taking SSRIs vs interventions through other nonpharmaceutical means is 2:1. While antidepressants can be great for short-term mental health interventions, it's important to include nonpharmaceutical interventions for long-term well-being. Get re-balanced with the basics. The big four practices for physiological rebalancing are: breath training, proper nutrition, exercise, and sleep. For 20 minutes every morning, try box breathing: inhale for five counts, hold your breath for five counts, exhale for five counts, and hold your exhaled breath for five counts. This is a completely free anti-stress medicine that you can do anytime, anywhere. Balancing the physiological system then leads to psychological space, which enables you to make better decisions across all areas of your life. The 3 best healing modalities for vets. Mark recommends electrostimulation (especially for TBI), EMDR therapy, and psychedelics. Electrostimulation works at the brain level, EMDR therapy works in the heart, and psychedelic assisted therapy works at the heart and the psycho-spiritual level. There's no one thing that works for every person. Everyone should try multiple things on their healing journey. The most important thing is for healing to be multi-dimensional.
BenGreenfieldFitness.com/katalystpodcast In a recent weekly roundup, I reported on what I called "Possibly The World's Most Efficient (New) Workout: The "Katalyst", and told you to get ready for the next frontier of electrical muscle stimulation. In my Boundless book, on my podcast, and elsewhere, I've talked in the past about how I use electrical muscle stimulation, also known as “EMS,” ...but with all other forms of EMS I've used in the past, although getting great results for injury rehab, muscle growth, targeted muscle "re-training" and more, I've also had to deal with all sorts of wires, time-consuming electrode attachment, confusing user interfaces, and a pretty clunky experience that takes up a lot of time. But this brand new electrical muscle stimulation suit called the “Katalyst” is a total game-changer. You literally just pull on the suit and select from any of the workouts on the app and a personal trainer not only walks you through the entire workout, which involves functional fitness moves like squats, side lunges, presses, cardiovascular and power movements, and a whole lot more… …but the intensity is automatically adjusted by your trainer as you go, and so it also creates a highly customized workout. This is one of the coolest time hacks for exercise that I've discovered in a long time and—coming from a guy who has done a lot of different workouts—I can tell you that this thing is not some gimmicky “As Seen On TV” technology that you use to get a six-pack while you're sitting on the couch eating Twinkies. Instead, I think this technology is going to take the fitness world by storm. Pro athletes can train muscles they've never used before and retrain injured muscles while complete exercise beginners or those in rehab can lift weights without excess stress on the joints. Again, the Katalyst suit is a total game-changer, and this thing is flying off the shelves now as folks discover the magic of EMS. Here's where you can get the Katalyst suit today (that link gives you "early access" to getting a unit for yourself). But I also wanted to get the Founder and CEO of Katalyst - Bjoern Woltermann - on the show to take a deep dive into exactly how this new technology works. Bjoern is the Founder and CEO of Katalyst, a revolutionary home fitness product that can actually improve your fitness through every phase of life. Using proven Full-Body EMS (Electro Muscle Stimulation) technology, Katalyst removes common barriers to fitness like time, ability and motivation, and replaces them with a 20-minute, full-body workout that works with your body rather than against it. Because there are no weights and no joint impact, Katalyst empowers all people to live longer, healthier and happier lives. A startup veteran and economist by trade, Bjoern was introduced to Full-Body EMS as a way to fit strength training into his busy travel schedule and to rehabilitate a back injury. After training every Monday for six weeks, Bjoern was amazed to find himself both pain-free and in better physical shape than he had been in years. He soon realized that this technology had the potential to significantly improve millions of lives. Driven by an innate desire to serve people, Bjoern founded Katalyst in 2015 to bring Full-Body EMS to the United States. Aside from Katalyst, Bjoern is a devoted husband and uncle who loves to travel the world and is committed to a healthy lifestyle. During our discussion, you'll discover: -How Bjoern got interested in EMS...8:54 2012, had a corporate job flying all over the world This resulted in chronic back pain Advised to strengthen core and lower back, otherwise serious injury would be incurred Introduced to an EMS clinic (20 minute treatment is too good to be true) Two different reactions: horribly uncomfortable or relatively manageable Breathwork is important for the comfort level After 6 weeks, he was pain free, no pain meds, etc. Body Street studio EMS EMS is far more popular in Germany than the U.S. -Brief history of EMS training...15:10 BGF podcast w/ Jay Schroeder (old, may not be available) Science discovered by Russians in the 60's TENS treatment is a different treatment than EMS Early 2000's, body transformer was a more efficient means of delivering EMS First commercial device was around 2007 Used by elite soccer teams (athletes signed NDA's because of it worked so well) -The science that backs up the efficacy of EMS...19:10 FDA-regulated category Hurdles too high for manufacturer's to expand in the U.S. Some European universities carry out 2-3 full-blown studies on EMS per year Hockey players 1.5% faster after EMS New way to activate muscles; easier to target specific muscle fibers -Why EMS induces a high amount of soreness...23:20 Previously unused and dormant muscles "No muscle left behind" Much more complete muscle activation Increasing the recruitment of muscle fibers in each rep Get to exhaustive state of the muscle faster Activate more muscle fibers at the same time - subconsciously this is how it's supposed to feel Need extreme loads to activate fast-twitch muscle fibers or very quick movements w/ conventional weight training Cardio mode causes the muscle to be active, transform energy into motion Aerodyne bike is the ultimate EMS workout -Why does the body get so hot in an EMS suit?...34:05 How much muscle activation is going on at a given time A workout that takes over one hour is condensed into 20 minutes Body simply needs to cool off Water provides adequate conductivity -Why different ranges of motion are used in EMS...37:00 No shortened muscle No tension One of Ben's training clients had knee pain disappear after using the Catalyst for a couple of sessiosn Unused muscles are in a tight state, protective measure Previously injured areas become loosened Relax the muscle, get back to a natural function -About the recovery setting on the Katalyst...40:45 Promotes blood flow Very low frequency Pumping effect to the muscles -How EMS may affect longevity and anti-aging...42:20 Study of 100 women over age of 75 Two of the women dropped out, not because it was too stringent Gained muscle mass, reversed atrophy Increased walking speed 10-20% Walking speed, grip strength and ability to get off the floor are good metrics for longevity Gained bone density -How to mix the regimens to get the most out of EMS...45:20 Do strength/power one day; followed by 10 minutes of cardio Day 2, cardio only Day 3-4, do strength again -Topicals or cold packs that can improve the efficacy of EMS...47:30 BGF podcast w/ Jeff Spencer Vasper machine -How the EMS routines are conducted in real time...50:20 Things are in the works to do EMS detached from the current system Trainers are actually getting the treatment while the user does Roles of customer and trainer are very different Immersive experience for the customer The system learns over time Levels are always individual to a person -How to access the Katalyst and skip the waitlist...58:30 -And much more!

Hi everyone, With this episode of BFR Radio I was inspired by a recent post from a colleague who started to use a combination modality of BFR and Electrostimulation (EMS) for an athlete who was going through post ACL surgery rehab. Traditionally EMS requires a high level of intensity for it to be effective which is problematic for those who are in the acute postoperative stage. This is where the authors thought that the combination of BFR with a lower level of EMS may prove to be useful. Before you head off and listen to the podcast, a few exciting updates: This week I am at the ASCA annual conference on the Gold Coast. I will have my Sports Rehab Tourniquets there to try and I am also debuting a new strength machine that I have developed. To date I haven't not seen this machine before so potentially a world debut. I am running a Brisbane BFR workshop on Saturday 23 November. Tickets can be purchased online only through eventbrite. There are lots of links through my social media and blog post.

The Effects of Blood Flow Restricted Electrostimulation on Strength and Hypertrophy. Slysz JT, Burr JF. J Sport Rehabil. 2018 May 1;27(3):257-262. doi: 10.1123/jsr.2017-0002. Epub 2018 May 22. Abstract CONTEXT: The combined effect of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and blood flow restriction (BFR) on muscle mass and strength has not been thoroughly investigated. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of combined and independent BFR and a low-intensity NMES on skeletal muscle adaptation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Subjects had each leg randomly allocated to 1 of 4 possible intervention groups: (1) cyclic BFR alone, (2) NMES alone, (3) BFR + NMES, or (4) control. Each leg was stimulated in its respective intervention group for 32 minutes, 4 days per week for 6 weeks. Mean differences in size (in grams) and isometric strength (in kilograms), between week 0 and week 6, were calculated for each group.

Welcome to my virtual therapy room! I am Dr Lori Beth Bisbey and this is Sex Spoken Here. Remember that this podcast deals with adult themes so if you don’t have privacy you might wish to put on your headphones. Today I am continuing my series on sex toys. So far in this series, I looked at vibrators and vibrating toys, dildos and butt plugs, and talked with Chrystal Bougon of Curvy Girl and Bliss. If you haven’t had the opportunity to listen to the first three episodes in the series, I encourage you to do so. Today, I am talking about pervertables and other interesting toys. A pervertable is an ordinary item that can be turned to sexual or perverted purposes. Later in the show I will talk about electro-stimulation toys. The first question I usually get about pervertables is why bother? There are a few reasons: The first is if you are not sure if you will enjoy certain types of sensation or activities, you probably don’t want to invest money in the toys or items. For example, you want to try a toy that will produce a thud type sensation, and see if you enjoy that type of pain mixed pleasure. You could go out and buy different paddles or you could go into the kitchen and get a wooden spoon or use the back of a heavy hair brush. The second reason is that you don’t have lots of money to spend. This is the most common reason someone decides to explore pervertables and creating their own toys. The third is the associations we form with items that we will see every day can add some excitement and on-going turn on. For example, if you have children or live with parents or roommates, you won’t keep that gorgeous flogger out and so you won’t get the thrill of seeing it regularly. But, if your lover uses a belt instead, every time you see the belt, every time they wear the belt, you will get an intense thrill. It can be like being hot-wired: You are doing something ordinary and you see the belt and suddenly you are soaked or rock hard or both. Pervertables for sensory play and sensory deprivation play: Sensory deprivation can increase the sensation for the senses that are still available. It also adds the extra thrill of surprise. The mildest form of sensory deprivation (and the most common) is blindfolding. Blindfolds can be made from ties, towels, shirts, belts, strips of fabric. One of the most arousing scenes I ever took part in, my lover tore off my t-shirt and cut it into strips, using one to blindfold me and the others to tie my hands to the bed posts. Your underwear can be used as a gag. Sensory play involves using all our senses and different types of sensation to increase excitement. Sometimes sight is removed (as many of us rely on sight as a primary sense). Alternate textures can be used to stimulate and enflame. There are tons of pervertables in the home that are ideal for this type of play. You can use sandpaper, the edge of tweezers, a feather, a fan, the tines of a fork, leather gloves, silk gloves or fabric, a safety pin, a rubber band. Using smells is also enlightening. In this case, I recommend pleasant smells and smells that whet the appetite like vanilla, cinnamon, chocolate, musk, civet, labdanum, leather, tuberose, amber, or gardenia. Taste is also a lot of fun to play with. I recommend using fresh fruit, chocolate, olives, lemon or lime, fresh ginger and for the truly adventurous various chilli peppers. Ginger can be used for figging which is when it is peeled and inserted in either the vagina or anus. It will cause an intense burning sensation. It shouldn’t be left in for too long. Some people also use chilli for this but I don’t recommend it because it is too hard to remove. Please make sure you aren’t allergic to anything you are going to put on or in your body. What about pervertables for dildos? There are loads of things you can use that are insertable pervertables. Please use common sense before putting something up your coochie or ass. Make sure that it isn’t going to cause damage – so make sure it is clean, use condoms, lots of lube, and nothing too sharp! (Even if you like pain, shredding your insides is never advised). Warnings finished. You can use carrots, zucchini (courgettes), candles. If you want to try some forms of BDSM and kink, there are lots of pervertables you can find at home or at B&Q or Home Depot. For restraints, ribbon can be used. Ribbon can feel cutting though so make sure to pay attention to how you feel and make sure the person who has tied you with it is checking in with you about how you feel. Any time you use restraints you must take care not to cut off circulation by tying too tight. You can use various sizes of chain for restraints. You can use regular rope but this tends to chafe. Try using rope over some fabric (like a sock or a tie) in order to avoid chafing. Nipple stimulation can be sensual or intense. If you want to experience some of the intense, clothespins are great pervertables. They may seem easy at first. The real hurt comes when they are taken off and all the blood rushes back into the nipples. Chopsticks can be used to tap on the nipples. For impact toys, you have incredible choices all throughout the house. In the office, rulers make great impact toys. They can also be easily integrated into a role play scene. My first piano teacher used to hit my hand with a ruler when I didn’t play correctly. School role plays can include being spanked with a ruler. Spoons are great impact toys. You can use wooden, plastic or metal and they will each give you a different sensation. You can use spatulas as well. Try a long-handled shoe horn (wooden ones are the best). Belts (the end without the buckle) are old standards for a good spanking. The back of a brush or a shoe are ones that many people in their 40’s and older experienced when they were children and naughty. If you want a more challenging sensation, a beating with the business end of a hair brush is pretty challenging. Rubber bands are very challenging. How do you use them, you ask? Just like when you were kids, you snap them on someone. The worst places to have them snapped on you are predictably the most sensitive places. Rubber bands look really innocuous but they are NOT. Remember that using different fabrics and textures all over your body can be really arousing. Alternating textures raises excitement. For example, using something furry over the breasts and following that with light scratching with finger nails. Playing with temperature is also lots of fun with pervertables. Paraffin candles are perfect for wax play. If you’ve never done it before, do get some instruction (either in person or on line) so that no one gets burned. Ice cubes are fantastic for raising your temperature. They can be rubbed lightly over the body or held tightly to the juicy parts. Electro-stimulation toys are finally more affordable. Electrostimulation or e-sex involves the applying of electrical stimulation to the nerves for sexual pleasure. If you use a pace maker, please don’t try this. If you have heart conditions, this is not recommended. And it is not advisable to place electrodes so that current passes through the chest cavity as even at low current and low voltage there is a risk of cardiac problems. Having said this, if you are using a violet wand these warnings don’t apply. If you are going to try this, it is best to get some instruction so you know all the risks, hazards and the best techniques. OK, warnings over. The use of electricity for entertainment dates back to the 1740’s. In the 1830’s insertable electrodes were first designed. In the 1920, some electrostimulation devices were used as a ‘cure’ for impotence. In the 1950s, a EMS machine that was designed for relaxation was re-purposed and used for sexual stimulation. That was an advanced pervertable!. Violet rays were developed for various medical treatments in the 1920’s and 30’s. From there they went to the beauty community and some treatments originally derived from violet ray use still exist today. Edgar Cayce found metaphysical uses for these devices and they found popularity again in the 60’s and 70’s. The original repurposed units are TENS and EMS units. Erotic units began to be devised in the 1980s. Battery powered units are preferred as they reduce the likelihood of injury. Violet wands are modified telsa coil type electrical transformer. It is usually engineered specifically for sexual play. The electrode attachments are made of glass or plastic and they glow when the electricity passes through them. The most common colour is purple hence the violet in the name but there are lots of different colours you can find. There is a phallic shaped electrode made for insertion and this has a fine spray output versus the long slim tube which concentrates into larger single sparks. Some electrodes feel tickly, others like a gentle tingling, others a bit more spicy and some very intense. There are a wide variety of techniques you can employ using these devices. Some allow you to electrify yourself and use your fingertips to be the contact point. So you can stroke your partner with a finger that gives them little sparks as you stroke. There are floggers and canes that can be electrified through your hand so you can add that extra spice to the flogging. Violet wands are lower amperage than other electro stimulation toys and therefore are the safest. They can be used above the waist without fear. There are so many different sensations produced by these making them a great toy to use long term, More information can be found from the International Violet Wand Guild – violetwands.org.

And it is not advisable to place electrodes so that current passes through the chest cavity as even at low current and low voltage there is a risk of cardiac problems. Having said this, if you are using a violet wand these warnings don’t apply. If you are going to try this, it is best to get some instruction so you know all the risks, hazards and the best techniques. OK, warnings over. The use of electricity for entertainment dates back to the 1740’s. In the 1830’s insertable electrodes were first designed. In the 1920, some electrostimulation devices were used as a ‘cure’ for impotence. In the 1950s, a EMS machine that was designed for relaxation was re-purposed and used for sexual stimulation. That was an advanced pervertable!. Violet rays were developed for various medical treatments in the 1920’s and 30’s. From there they went to the beauty community and some treatments originally derived from violet ray use still exist today. Edgar Cayce found metaphysical uses for these devices and they found popularity again in the 60’s and 70’s. The original repurposed units are TENS and EMS units. Erotic units began to be devised in the 1980s. Battery powered units are preferred as they reduce the likelihood of injury. Violet wands are modified telsa coil type electrical transformer. It is usually engineered specifically for sexual play. The electrode attachments are made of glass or plastic and they glow when the electricity passes through them. The most common colour is purple hence the violet in the name but there are lots of different colours you can find. There is a phallic shaped electrode made for insertion and this has a fine spray output versus the long slim tube which concentrates into larger single sparks. Some electrodes feel tickly, others like a gentle tingling, others a bit more spicy and some very intense. There are a wide variety of techniques you can employ using these devices. Some allow you to electrify yourself and use your fingertips to be the contact point. So you can stroke your partner with a finger that gives them little sparks as you stroke. There are floggers and canes that can be electrified through your hand so you can add that extra spice to the flogging. Violet wands are lower amperage than other electro stimulation toys and therefore are the safest. They can be used above the waist without fear. There are so many different sensations produced by these making them a great toy to use long term, More information can be found from the International Violet Wand Guild – violetwands.org.

Dr. Donald Rhodes. my guest today, invented VECTTOR treatments, a gentle form of electrostimulation designed to stimulate nerves to augment the production of certain essential nerve chemicals throughout the body. VECTTOR treatments are painless, noninvasive, and are showing encouraging results in diseases exacerbated by oxidative stress, such as Parkinson's Disease. The basis of this therapy stems from acupuncture, reflexology, physiology, and cellular physiology. Dr. Rhodes is a former foot and ankle surgeon, has spent his career studying the effects of electrostimulation on the body. He has successfully treated patients from all over the world in his clinic in South Texas. However, the advent of VECTTOR will soon allow this treatment to be available worldwide.
