Struggling with low moods, especially as the days get darker? Wondering if moving your body could actually improve your mental health more than medication? In this encore episode of the “Better Than Fine” podcast, host Darlene Marshall —personal trainer, wellness coach, and positive psychology practitioner—dives headfirst into the science connecting physical activity to depression, anxiety, and psychological distress. You'll hear the surprising truth behind recent headlines claiming, “exercise is 1.5x more effective than meds” and learn what a meta-analysis really says about movement and mental health. Is daily exercise really necessary, or is there a “sweet spot” for mental health benefits? Are all movement modalities equally effective—or do resistance training and yoga offer unique boosts for your mood and mind? Darlene Marshall unpacks massive new research covering over 128,000 adults, distilling complex science into practical, relatable takeaways you can use—whether you're a fitness professional, therapist, or just trying to feel better through winter.

You can be passionate about your exercise or sport, and still burn out from it. Have you ever pushed yourself so hard to “do better” or beat a personal best, that the joy disappeared? For many perfectionistic or ADHD minds, exercise can be too much of a good thing, so how to balance that is exactly what this episode unpacks. In this episode of the Pause Purpose Play podcast, Clinical Psychologist Michaela Thomas speaks with Dr. Josephine Perry, Chartered Sport and Exercise Psychologist, about the complex relationship between ADHD, high performance, and perfectionism in sport and exercise. Together, they explore how the drive for achievement can become both a strength and a struggle — especially for those with busy, high-achieving minds. Whether you're an athlete, a coach, or someone using exercise to manage ADHD, this conversation offers insights into balancing motivation, wellbeing, and self-compassion. Dr. Perry shares her practical ‘coins system' for tracking energy expenditure and understanding when you're pushing too hard, offering strategies to prevent burnout, injury, and loss of joy in movement. Michaela brings her signature compassionate approach to exploring how ADHD traits such as hyperfocus, impulsivity, and perfectionism can show up in exercise habits — and how to turn these into sources of balance and fulfilment instead of exhaustion. You'll hear: How ADHD and perfectionism affect motivation, recovery, and performance The fine line between discipline and overtraining Why self-compassion is the missing piece for sustainable success How societal pressures and body image ideals shape our relationship with sport Ways to bring more joy, purpose, and play into your training or movement routines About the Guest Dr Josephine Perry is a chartered Sport and Exercise Psychologist who works with high performers in sport, stage and a range of sectors where people will be working outside of their comfort zones. She specialises in those struggling with performance anxiety and those who have ADHD. She is the author of 6 books including Performing Under Pressure, I Can: The teenage athlete's guide to mental fitness and, most recently, ADHD in Sport: Strategies for Success.

Podcast Episode SynopsisEpisode Title: Distress' Impact on Your BodyHost IntroductionIn this episode, Dr. Ali Novitsky, expert in obesity medicine and founder of The FIT Collective, continues her series on stress—this time focusing on how stress impacts the body. Dr. Ali keeps this episode concise and reflective, encouraging listeners to pause and connect with how stress shows up physically.Key Points Discussed1. Physical Impacts of StressJoint Pains and Muscle Recovery: Dr. Ali explains that elevated cortisol during stress can delay recovery and increase joint or muscle pain.Heightened Irritability and Tension: Stress raises irritability and muscle tightness. Dr. Ali suggests a quick body scan—especially noticing how high the shoulders are—as a simple stress check.Perimenopause and Stress: Stress can amplify perimenopausal symptoms such as night sweats and hot flashes. Dr. Ali references research showing that gentle, low-impact exercise (like walking or stretching) can lessen these effects.Immunity and Hormones: Chronic stress impacts immune function through cortisol and insulin dysregulation. High insulin promotes water retention and inflammation, increasing risk for long-term conditions such as heart disease and cancer.2. Personal Reflection and Daily PracticeDr. Ali invites listeners to notice the specific ways stress manifests in their own bodies. She shares that for her, stress often looks like:Speaking rapidlyPoor sleepEmotional eatingDigestive issuesHeadaches or muscle sorenessShe encourages creating a daily “body check-in” practice—noticing tension, breath, and posture throughout the day. Awareness is the first step to release.3. Self-Compassion Over CriticismDr. Ali emphasizes that judgment and self-criticism amplify stress, while self-compassion lowers it. She reminds listeners that it's normal to feel stressed and that progress, not perfection, is the goal. Replacing inner criticism with phrases like “I'm doing my best right now” supports both emotional and physical resilience.4. Actionable StepsDr. Ali closes with three takeaways listeners can begin today:Acknowledge Stress: Recognize how stress physically shows up in your body—fatigue, muscle tension, or irritability.Daily Check-In: Build a brief daily practice to notice posture, breath, or areas of tightness.Self-Compassion Plan: Practice kindness toward yourself—affirm that stress is a human experience and that rest and recovery are productive.ConclusionDr. Ali concludes by reminding listeners that acknowledging stress is the first step in managing it. The body keeps the score, but with awareness, movement, rest, and self-compassion, we can heal and thrive. She encourages listeners to be gentle with themselves and to prioritize recovery just as much as performance.Timestamps00:00:06 – Introduction & Overview00:01:10 – Physical Impact of Stress00:01:20 – Joint Pain & Delayed Recovery00:02:13 – Perimenopause & Stress00:02:24 – Exercise & Menopause Symptoms00:03:17 – Immunity & Hormones00:03:38 – Cortisol and Insulin00:04:21 – Inflammation & Water Retention00:05:03 – GLP-1 and Heart Health00:05:14 – Body Carries Stress00:05:24 – Personal Stress Symptoms00:06:09 – Daily Body Check-In00:06:31 – Exercise as Emotional Regulator00:06:53 – Personal Experience with Stress00:07:45 – Managing Stress Strategies00:08:07 – Daily Awareness Practice00:09:20 – Rest, Nutrition, Activity00:09:41 – Self-Compassion Practice00:11:06 – Movement & Stress Relief00:12:11 – Transform Program & Stress QuizWork with Dr. Ali

Thriving through Menopause with Fitness, Fat Loss and a Focused Mind
Are you working out faithfully but still staring at stubborn belly fat that won't budge? You're not alone — and it's not your effort, it's your approach. In this episode of The Menopause Makeover Podcast, Coach Kris (a.k.a. "Honey") breaks down three science-backed reasons midlife women stop losing weight — even when they're exercising consistently. Drawing from Dr. Stacy Sims' research and years of menopause fitness coaching, Kris explains why traditional cardio might actually be slowing your fat loss and what to do instead. You'll learn: ✅ Why long, steady-state cardio (Zone 2) isn't the best way to burn fat or balance hormones after 40 ✅ How adding intensity through HIIT and SIT workouts helps your body adapt, build muscle, and reignite fat burning ✅ Why recovery matters more than ever — and how over-training raises cortisol, stalls weight loss, and drains energy ✅ The surprising brain benefits of interval training: sharper focus, better mood, and stronger memory If your workouts feel harder but your belly fat isn't budging, this episode will show you how to train smarter — not longer — to support your hormones, metabolism, and energy in menopause.
OVERVIEWCreatine is one of the most researched supplements available, it's safe to consume, and it has been receiving renewed interest in endurance cycling.

In this "how-to" episode, we will examine revival. What does it mean? What are the conditions that cause it? What did Jesus have to say about this season of awakening and revival? Dr. Patty looks at what can be learned by the first revival in the book of Acts. Then she shares stories and pulls out those conditions in both the Azusa revival in the early 1900s and the Toronto Blessing of the 1990s. She comments on the five lessons about revival learned by a new believer who experienced the Toronto Blessing. Finally, Jesus shares his heart for revival, what motivates Him to show up in a group setting with His manifest presence, and a bit about why spiritual warfare accompanies every revival and how to navigate those waters. Jesus shows you what part of your heart needs to be resurrected and how He wants to use you in unity with other members of the body of Christ in your Experience Jesus encounter time.

Today's live clears up three big themes that keep people stuck:Centralisation is good news—leg pain retreating to the low back usually means you're reversing the sciatica process. Don't “elephant-walk” your spine into more flexion to chase flexibility while it's healing.Relief that helps vs hurts—use massage gun, hamstring work (with a neutral spine), towel/bed decompression, and contrast bathing to manage end-of-day stiffness while you build strength. Skip the knee-hugs/rounded-back routines that tug on healing tissue.Exercise is the safest part of your day—with strategy + tutorials, squats/hinges are safer than the uncontrolled loads of daily life. If someone says “no squats,” ask how you're meant to stand up from a chair.We also cover hydrotherapy logistics (why the trip can provoke more than it helps early on), how to sit through a theatre show (recline/towel + fidget), home-gym buys (adjustable dumbbells/vests), nerve symptoms timelines, walking as a relief “micro-pump,” and more.Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:

This week we discuss changing the outcome of your health with nutrition & exercise. Our guest today is Dr. James Thompson, the author of Fearless Wellness and a passionate advocate for transformational change. He completed medical training 35 years ago and has dedicated my career to empowering others to live healthier, more fulfilling lives. He experienced a life-changing event in 2012 and participated in a 21-day Daniel Fast with my church community. Though the three-week diet, equivalent to a whole food plant-based diet, was intended to emphasize prayer, the impact of the food intrigued him. By the end of the second week, he had more energy, fewer joint aches, more mental clarity, better sleep, and lower blood pressure. He surmised the benefits were mainly from consuming real food and omitting processed food. He decided to take a year-long certification course in integrative holistic nutrition which was the start of his transformation to a whole food plant-based lifestyle. His training course, combined with a decade of studying nutrition science, love of animals, and concerns about climate change, has led me to the current space where he resides, a vegan. Here is the basic outline & links to his Blog and his new book : "FEARLESS Wellness: Transform Your Life, One Step at a Time" F – Food: Embrace plant-based eating E – Exercise: Stay active regularly A – Avoid toxins: Eliminate harmful habits (e.g., tobacco) R – Restorative sleep: Prioritize quality rest L – Lessen stress: Manage and reduce daily pressures E – Engage your mind: Stimulate mental growth S – Social energy: Cultivate empathy and connections S – Spiritual connectivity: Foster a sense of purpose and belonging

Today we are going in a slightly different direction. It has been 20 years since Al and I started the Balanced Body Education department and I am reflecting on the many different ways a Pilates or fitness professional can practice our craft and support our community. If you are at a turning point in your career or are looking to create a vision for where you want to go and how you might get there, this episode is for you. Reaching your goals takes persistence, work and training but mostly it takes knowing where you are headed. Once you have defined your destination, the universe often aligns to take you there.Moving Conversation Socials Brian's Book on Low Back Pain and Conditions: Back Exercise; Stabilize, Mobilize and Reduce Pain https://a.co/d/8IUb7L6 Email: movingconvos@gmail.com IG: @movingconvos FB: Moving Conversations Brian IG: @fit4lifedc FB: https://www.facebook.com/brianrichey/ Nora IG: nora.s.john.7 FB: https://www.facebook.com/nora.s.john.7
Living a life with a busy schedule is very common for most people and this can still be true as we age. Finding the time to fit in healthy habits like regular exercise can be challenging. Fortunately you don't have to spend hours exercising just to stay healthy. Currently we've released a few "5 Minute Series" workouts that are designed to give you a variety of movements and challenges in a short period of time. But just how effective are 5 minute exercises? In This Episode You Will Learn: 1). Why Meredith decided to create a new exercise series called "5 Minute" workouts and what is included in this series. 2). How this new series is built on the foundation that you should always focus on some kind of intentional movement throughout the day even if only for 5 minutes. 3). The different varieties of 5 minute workouts that we offer (now and in the future) and how they encompass all levels of fitness. 4). Some of Meredith's thoughts on how often you should exercise during the week and how our 5 minute series plays a role in that. 5). Why it's important to sometimes "slow down" your workouts even if you are at an advanced level of fitness. /// We hope the information we've shared in this episode is helpful to you especially if you're having a hard time trying to find time to exercise on a regular basis. You don't need to spend countless hours everyday to maintain your physical health. The important thing is to always choose to keep moving even if it's only for 5 minutes. Installing healthy habits is what it's all about to giving you the chance at a long and healthy life ahead. Team MeredithSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Episode 2718 - Vinnie Tortorich and Anna Vocino discuss unwinding the habits you've learned, missing the world around you, and more. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/11/unwinding-the-habits-episode-2718 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Vitamin Club Pure Coffee Club NSNG® Foods VILLA CAPPELLI EAT HAPPY KITCHEN YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE - @FitnessConfidential Podcast Unwinding the Habits The days of Grunge. (2:00) Vinnie recently witnessed a common misconception at the gym. (8:00) One exercise, too many sets. Vinnie can get a full workout in within 35-45 minutes, and he's guided people to do the same. He shares a story from his gym about a woman doing multiple sets. Her real name is not Leona. The woman was doing more sets than necessary; she admitted that, despite his advice, she was still relying on information that had been told to her years before. Anna knows that it can take time for people to unwind the habits they have learned. It took Anna a while to adjust to the idea that eating higher levels of fat was beneficial. (16:00) Vinnie understands the origin of the idea of multiple sets, but it isn't always necessary. (17:30) Vinnie made a tuna dish for a quick, easy protein and used Anna's spices. (30:00) Vinnie has gotten back into rollerblading and shares a story. (40:00) He witnessed a woman who was also on the track, who was watching her phone the entire time during her 45-minute walk. (43:00) She had an opportunity to be outside and enjoy her environment; however, her head was cranked down, looking at her phone. The constant engagement with phones creates disconnection, and people are missing the world around them. (46:15) Battling Bad Information Bad fitness info is all around all the time. (53:00) Exercise is a poor way to lose a lot of weight. However, if you are eating correctly, the weight will come off more quickly. (55:00) Exercise is the fountain of youth—getting strong will help with metabolism and longevity. (57:00) You may feel tired at first, but as your body adjusts and your metabolism improves, you will gain more energy.

Unfocused. Not living up to potential. Dr. G thought that about himself for decades… until at 41, he discovered he actually has ADHD. Suddenly the lost keys, unfinished projects, chronic lateness, sensory overwhelm, and shame all made sense. In this intimate solo episode, Dr. G breaks down the neuroscience of adult ADHD, the trauma-based model Gabor Maté teaches, why the default mode network hijacks focus, how stimulant medications impact dopamine long term, and the lifestyle + supplement strategies backed by research. In This Episode: • How ADHD shows up in adults (and why it gets mislabeled as character flaws) • Why high-functioning people go decades without knowing they have ADHD • What the brain science actually reveals about focus, motivation & time perception • The Gabor Maté trauma model — ADHD as adaptation vs disorder • The stimulant conversation: benefits, risks, and dependency realities • Lifestyle anchors that support the ADHD brain (sleep times, routines, movement) • Research-backed supplements that can help support attention Key Takeaways: ✅ ADHD isn't laziness — it's neurodevelopment + nervous system wiring ✅ Trauma in childhood shapes time perception and attention patterns ✅ Medication can help, but informed consent is essential ✅ Exercise, structure, breathwork, and key nutrients truly support regulation ✅ Compassion — not shame — is what actually unlocks change Timestamps: 0:00 - Discovering I Have ADHD at 41 1:04 - My Entire Life Suddenly Made Sense 2:39 - The Idyllwild Moment: How I Found Out 4:45 - Everyone Knew But Me 7:31 - The Real Science Behind ADHD 13:56 - Childhood Signs I Missed 17:31 - What ADHD Actually Is (Not Laziness) 19:33 - Gabor Maté: ADHD as Adaptation to Stress 22:39 - Breaking Free from Shame 24:03 - The Truth About Adderall & Stimulants 26:49 - Natural Tools That Actually Help 28:15 - My Action Plan Moving Forward

We are pregnant! In today's special episode, we want to dive into our fertility story, how we planned for this season, and what shifted in our hearts and lives leading up to trying. I open up about her early fears around motherhood, how family jokes once shaped her identity, and the moment she knew Omar would be an incredible father. We talk about praying for guidance, timing, and acceptance — and how those prayers brought a deep sense of peace. We also want to share the unexpected way this journey began: a planned fast interrupted by getting sick, a wedding we stayed home from, and Vanessa's Oura Ring signaling that something was different. You'll hear the story of the very earlypregnancy test, how she surprised Omar at the airport, and his reaction when we took another test at home just to be sure. From the beginning, we made the intentional choice to tell our community and loved ones right away, so we could walk through this experience with the people we care about, not in secrecy or fear. I want to talk through the supplements I'm taking, the changes in my energy, and what nutrition and movement look like right now — including six smaller meals, simple foods, ginger and peppermint tea, and keeping 10k steps and workouts while paying close attention to my body's signals. And yes… the Mexican flavor cravings are very real. We're honored to share this part of our story with you. If pregnancy, family planning, or listening to others' journeys has ever brought up emotions for you — we see you, and this episode is shared with so much love and compassion.

Exercise helps college students manage stress! In 2002, certified personal trainer Holly Kouvo had a vision: to create an independent personal training company that teaches clients innovative ways to fit exercise into their daily lives. You can improve balance and strength using chairs, build strength by doing arm curls with a gallon of milk while waiting in line at the grocery store, or exercise with bands in a hotel room. Holly's philosophy differs from the traditional "create-a-standard-routine-for-the-gym" mantra. She prides herself on creating customized programs that fit each client's unique lifestyle. Holly takes your goals, likes and dislikes, strengths, and time constraints, and helps you to fit fitness in to your day. In episode 614 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out what inspired Holly to dedicate her life to helping others "fit fitness in", how college students in their 20s can start investing in their long-term brain and body health, some of the biggest misconceptions young adults have about aging and wellness, how exercise helps college students to manage stress, what are some simple, creative ways college students can "fit fitness in" throughout their day, how much exercise does a college student really need to see benefits, how nutrition plays into brain health and longevity, how fraternity and sorority leaders can model this within their chapters to build healthier, more energized communities, and what lessons we can learn in her upcoming book, "Fitting Fitness In: Staying Fit, Sharp, and Independent as You Age".

Author Jonathan Gluck says most cancer stories take one of two forms: “He or she fought valiantly and died, or he or she fought valiantly and survived.” But Gluck, who was told in the prime of life that he had an incurable type of blood cancer, has a different kind of story. Dr. Sanjay Gupta sits down with Gluck to discuss his new book, “An Exercise in Uncertainty: A Memoir of Illness and Hope,” and what two decades of living with cancer have taught him – and might teach us – about living well.
