Today there’s a lot of blonde power in the recording studio! We’re asking two top health & wellness experts your burning health questions. Sophie Uliano is a nutritionist, green beauty expert, and best-selling author of the Gorgeously Green series of books. She runs retreats and events that empower women to transform from the inside out and be the healthiest they can be. This blonde bombshell taught Julia Roberts and Oprah how to go green BEFORE green was cool. Check out previous episodes 178, 185 and 200 for Sophie’s story and more gorgeously green lifestyle tips. Ella Magers was named one of Shape Magazine’s Top 50 Hottest Trainers in America, and we testify that she’s really hot - and vegan. She’s the author of Six Weeks to Sexy Abs, a book that will transform how you exercise for good. Vegan for 23 years, Ella runs online coaching programs helping people make the transition to a plant-based diet and healthy lifestyle. Check out episodes 97, 169 and 170 for Ella’s story. 1: How much exercise do we really need? The latest scientific research says the optimum amount of exercise is 60 minutes a day. Sounds like a lot, but you don’t have to do it all in one go: you can break it up. If you’re busy, do 10 minutes kettlebell in the morning, throw in a bit of high speed walking at lunchtime, and a spot of yoga in the afternoon. Simply being active in your day to day soon adds up when it comes to fitness. Even tidying up can help you work up a sweat. Consider your goals. If you’re focusing on long term health, lower impact exercise is a good choice. If you’re looking for fast results, go for high-intensity workouts. Ultimately, it’s about finding a balance between the two that works for you. 2: I like to drink a glass of wine every day. I’ve got a pretty healthy routine otherwise, but I just need that glass. Is it ok to have wine? Be plant-powered, eat your greens, and enjoy that glass of wine guilt-free. Firstly, wine is packed with antioxidants, in moderation it’s practically a health food (check out Dr. Cabral’s episode where he shares the secrets to drinking healthily). When you deny yourself something you love, you end up compensating by binging on something else. It’s more important to listen to your body. Definitely don’t feel guilty, because guilt changes the molecular structure of our bodies. So pour yourself that glass of wine, and enjoy every sip. 3: What’s the deal with SPF? Is the sun giving us skin cancer or is it good for us? What are you best recommendations for healthy sunscreen? The sun is not the devil. In fact, vitamin D is vital and you should get between 2000-5000 IU every day. A little bit of sunshine is ok (although definitely avoid the baby oil and the aluminum foil), but you need to be cautious and protect yourself from harmful rays. Our top tips: Wear a hat and non-toxic sunblock. You can make your own by mixing coconut oil and zinc oxide. Avoid conventional sunscreens, they’re packed with hormone-disrupting chemicals and don’t even work. Think about your diet. The more toxic you are, the more you’ll burn. 4: Colonics and enemas. Hype or healing tools? There’s a ton of conflicting information out there. Some say it’s lifesaving, others say it might kill you. The truth is somewhere in between. As a short-term fix or to kickstart your healing journey, they can work miracles. In fact, many Food Heals guests have had positive experiences with them. But some say washing away your microbiome is a bad idea, and colonics shouldn’t be relied upon long-term. If you eat clean and if you’re healthy, you don’t necessarily need colonics because you’re giving your digestive system everything it needs to function and support a healthy gut. The body is clever, it naturally detoxifies, and we can assist it in a gentle way by eating certain herbs and vegetables like cilantro, milk thistle and leafy greens. 5: What are the best green products for hair? Evolve H do a great starter kit for hair. Totally green non-toxic hair care. Bogavia do a delicious shampoo, conditioner and serum that really deliver. EO Products shampoos and conditioners are gluten-free, organic, and infused with essential oils that helps your hair grow. 6: How do you kick a Starbucks addiction? If you’re trying to kick the coffee habit, you can try a matcha tea shot instead. It will really energize you without giving you the jitters. Or give Hiball a try, they give you a natural lift. If it’s the take-out coffee habit you’re trying to shift, then look at it from an economic, health, and environment perspective. You can buy really good organic ethical tea or coffee, organic plant milk with no nasties added, make it at home and take it with you in a reusable cup… not only do you save money, but you avoid chemical-packed non-organic coffee and sugary milks (saving your health), and don’t contribute to the mountain of plasticized coffee cups polluting the oceans (saving the planet). When it comes to coffee with benefits, you can’t go wrong with Foursigmatic, instant coffee infused with medicinal mushrooms. 7: What are your thoughts on drinking aloe vera gel? Aloe vera can be good for food poisoning because it flushes you out and helps the intestinal tract to heal. However, you need to use it with caution, because it can be powerful and some people are super sensitive to it. In small amounts it can be delicious, you can mix it with lemon and mint for a healthy healing lemonade.  8: What are some tips to move out of food addiction and into a healthy relationship with our food? The first thing to acknowledge is that food is just a symptom of disordered eating. The cause is deeper. So switching to veganism or vegetarianism doesn’t automatically cure food addiction. You need to begin by exploring what sits behind those behaviors. What are the thoughts and beliefs fueling your eating patterns? Ultimately, when we reconnect to self-love, and are mindful of what is driving us to crave another serving of ice-cream (vegan or not), we can step out of disordered eating and into a healthy relationship with food.  Being hailed as “Sex and the City for Food,” The Food Heals Podcast brings together experts in the field of nutrition, health and healing to teach you the best-kept natural secrets to being a hotter, healthier, happier YOU!

Affectionately known as Mary Poppins for the new millennium, Gorgeously Green’s Sophie Uliano is a New York Times bestselling author passionate about helping people live life in a more holistic way (check out her previous episode 178). And you know our other two guests from episodes 112, 151 and 179, Joy and Jay the Jing Slingers, superfood organic chefs, experts in anti-aging, longevity and tonic herbalism, and authors of the Food with Benefits recipe book. They’ve cracked the code to create culinary masterpieces packed with health-boosting superfoods and tonic herbs. We couldn’t think of anyone better to start the year with! Let’s set those New Year intentions! How can we feel more empowered, more gorgeous, and healthier than ever? First tip: resolutions are out! New year’s resolutions simply don’t work. In fact, over 90% fail. Why? One reason is because when we set ourselves rigid goals, we set ourselves up to not carry them through long term, and this leads to feelings of shame, blame and judgement. The underlying emotion is: I’m not good enough. And that feeling makes positive change almost impossible, and keeps you feeling like a failure. So much for a “happy” new year! We all want change because we think it’s going to make us happier. It might be losing weight, getting a new job, buying a bigger house, getting married. But that’s the lie. Because happiness doesn’t come from external factors. Happiness comes within. If you can be happy by being grateful with what you have right now, you’re vibrating at a higher energy, and that’s when beautiful things happen. So why not ditch the new year’s resolutions, and have a new year’s evolution instead? Evolve to be more at home and comfortable in your own skin, be more present, and be there for those who matter in your life. Here are our New Year VIP Health Panel’s tips on making your 2018 happier and healthier than ever! • Take baby steps—otherwise you won’t keep it up long term. Make small manageable goals that are sustainable. • Return to the present—when you’re present, time becomes more malleable. It’s not about the coming year: it’s about the now. • Change the way your talk to yourself. Set intentions in a gentle way and trust in the flow of the Universe. • Have a rampage of gratitude. Wake up and be grateful for your pillow, the roof over your head, the comfort of your body… If you start your day with gratitude, you open your heart to see the beauty all around you. • Open yourself to guidance. The Universe will steer you to the right path. • Expand your perspective to get yourself out of the ego state that locks you into your mind. • Be willing to take what you want—there’s no need for shame. • Be grounded in the present—what’s going on with you right now? Journaling can help you work out what you’re feeling, and let go of difficult emotions. • Realize that the ups and downs are all part of the experience of life, and part of being human. Experiencing the darker emotions helps you to appreciate the lighter ones. • Allow yourself to feel the whole range of your emotions. Even depression can lead you to something better. Tips to release weight in a healthy way: • Know where your weight came from. • Be really clear about why you want to lose weight and where you want to be. • Get to know your body, it will help you work out the best diet for your unique needs. • Weight-loss is a metabolic and hormonal response—you need to take a long-term sustainable approach. Crash diets don’t work. It’s about quality of food and nutrients. • Exercise is a huge component of health—strength training can turn your body into a fat burning machine. Challenge yourself to do something you couldn’t easily do last week, or change it up and do something completely different. • Focus on a whole food plant-based diet.

It’s almost Thanksgiving — an exciting time of year to be grateful for what you have. But it can also be a stressful time for many. The holidays can be full of triggers — family, food, grief — sparked by an uncle whose politics you deplore, being tempted by unhealthy dishes, or the memory of lost loved ones who used to share the holidays with you. These gatherings can be so emotionally charged that they can destroy your health goals —raising your stress level and leading you to having that third helping of pecan pie. You’re not alone. Today, we’re deep-diving into the emotional triggers the holidays can bring up with special guest, Sophie Uliano, to help you have a happy, healthy Thanksgiving. After all, this is the time for gratitude, togetherness, and love. Sophie Uliano’s Tips for a Healthy Happy Thanksgiving Sophie's mission is to help you feel amazing in your own skin and be excited about who you are. We are delighted our Gorgeously Green girlfriend shared some of her favorite Thanksgiving tips to help keep your vibration high this holiday season: Be prepared on every front. If you’re going into a difficult family situation, spend a few days getting ready. Anticipate what might happen and decide how you will react. Journaling is extremely helpful to begin the process of letting go of those feelings. If you’re going away for a few days, pack some healthy treats to take with you (granola, healthy smoothie mix, nuts, almond milk, etc.). Remember what the holidays are about: It’s about love and spending time with people you care about and being grateful for the good in your life. Underneath the triggers, stress, and possible arguments, we’re all one. We are human beings and we all want to be loved. So let’s give some love and gratitude during the holidays! Stay tuned because Sophie will be back for our New Year special episode to talk about how you can detox your home with organic and natural products.

Group calls Once a month we will work on each person’s business in a small group setting and learn from and help one-another plus make connections in our fields with other like-minded eco-entrepreneurs. Done-For-You Social Media Marketing We will form Instagram pods and share content calendars and agree to promote each other. This is an incredible way to build engagement with new fans and partner with others in the health & wellness niche! Video Trainings Right now I have two video trainings for you: 30+ Ways to Monetize Your Brand and Podcast Secrets: Monetization & Marketing Strategies. As I create new trainings, you will be the first to receive them!   Customized Marketing Plan Everyone is different, and I’ll work with you to create a unique marketing strategy that fits your needs, is tailored to your goals, and takes your business to a whole new level. Accountability Partner You know when you start something new, like a new gym regime, and at first you’re completely motivated, but after a month you just want to give up? Imagine having a friend who simply wouldn’t let you quit. Well, you got it! I’ll pair you up with an accountability partner whose business and goals are aligned with yours, so you’ll have someone to motivate and encourage you, and keep you centered on your goals. Email Access I want to be there for you and help you build your business into something truly amazing. So if you’ve got a question, or are unsure about something, you can simply ping me an email and I will be on hand to help. Social Media and Shout-outs What better way to promote your business than to reach out to a large number of like- minded people? You’ll receive tweets, Facebook Posts and shout-outs on the Food Heals Podcast to help enhance visibility and boost your business. Go for the GOLD Plan and I’ll also interview you on the Podcast, giving you the chance to share your story and connect with a large community of fellow eco-entrepreneurs. Commitment is important, but life happens. Sometimes you need a month off. That’s why this is a flexible, month-by-month agreement — no pressure! Payment plans are also available.
