When a trauma happens, it changes us. Literally, it causes a chemical change in our DNA. The best way to say it is we're born into fears, feelings, anxieties, and depressions that aren't ours. We do not enter the world with a clean hard drive; there is an operating system that's already taking place containing the fallout of our parents', grandparents', and maybe even great-grandparents' traumas. We're born in the dark with thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that we can't explain. - Mark Wolynn What if your thoughts, reactions, and even just ways of being aren't even yours but just parts of your family's history that you have inherited?

It Didn't Start With You Click here to buy your own copy It Didn't Start With You A groundbreaking approach to transforming traumatic legacies passed down in families over generations, by an acclaimed expert in the field Depression. Anxiety. Chronic Pain. Phobias. Obsessive thoughts. The evidence is compelling: the roots of these difficulties may not reside in our immediate life experience or in chemical imbalances in our brains—but in the lives of our parents, grandparents, and even great-grandparents. The latest scientific research, now making headlines, supports what many have long intuited—that traumatic experience can be passed down through generations. What You Will Learn It Didn’t Start with You builds on the work of leading experts in post-traumatic stress, including Mount Sinai School of Medicine neuroscientist Rachel Yehuda and psychiatrist Bessel van der Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score. Even if the person who suffered the original trauma has died, or the story has been forgotten or silenced, memory and feelings can live on. These emotional legacies are often hidden, encoded in everything from gene expression to everyday language, and they play a far greater role in our emotional and physical health than has ever before been understood.

The Wellness Force M21 Guide Wellness Force Community on Facebook Power Quotes From The Show Uncovering Our Trauma Language "I find that when a trauma happens, there's something else that goes on; trauma language is left which we also carry with us. Clues after a trauma are left behind in the emotionally charged words and sentences. This leaves behind a bread crumb trail and if we know how to follow it, it'll lead us to the missing piece of the picture that finally gives us context for why we feel, think, and act the way we do." - Mark Wolynn Shaking The Family Tree "We've got to shake the family tree and see what falls out. We have to find out what stories have never been told, what secrets were hidden, and what traumas were never fully healed. Then, we have to do our own healing work, understand how we're reliving those traumas, and what we can do to bring strength and peace to ourselves and future generations." - Mark Wolynn The Residue From Traumatic Events "Just as we inherit eye color and blood type, we also inherit the residue from traumatic events." - Mark Wolynn Links From Today's Show Cured Nutrition 302 Mark Groves Alan Watts Bruce Lipton Bert Hellinger The Wellness Force M21 Guide Wellness Force Community on Facebook Three Generations of Family History - Inherited Family Trauma Creating an Inherited Family Traumagram The Legacy of Unfinished Business The Family Constellation Institute, The Inherited Trauma Institute The Hellinger Institute of Northern California It Didn't Start With You Mark Wolynn Facebook Instagram Twitter About Mark Wolynn Director of The Family Constellation Institute, The Inherited Trauma Institute and The Hellinger Institute of Northern California, Mark Wolynn is North America’s leader in Inherited Family Trauma.

What does it even really mean to be intelligent? What is intelligence? For a long time, I used to think that intelligence was how smart you were and that's part of it but what we're really shifting into at Wellness Force is answering the question, what are the real, tangible courses and products out there in our world right now that are the best, what are we working towards as a society, and how can we apply the embodied lessons we learn? That's what we're all looking for. The gathering and application is part of the intelligence process. - Josh Trent My friend, we’ve arrived, this is it, episode 300 of Wellness Force Radio!

We Have Arrived If you’ve been listening to Wellness Force for a while, or if you’ve been with us since the beginning, you know by now that great things tend to take us time, effort, and the hardest one of them all - trusting the process - especially when it comes to our wellness. For episode 300, I am sharing the 10 biggest lessons I have learned thus far on this journey. I want to share my truth: This entrepreneurial and podcast path has not been 100% rainbows. Even since early childhood, I have known, deep down, that I march to the beat of a different drummer. Maybe you feel that too, and that’s why you’re here. I’ve faced inner and outer demons I wouldn’t wish on anyone, and since I woke up in 2014, I’ve done some really, really, hard work to let go of old stories about genetics, beliefs, and the people and things that don't serve my wellness. But yet as hard as this has been, I’ve also learned that when you operate from a place of love and service to others, and if you really want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it. This podcast has been my home, my work, and my life for 4 years now, and today, I get to give thanks to YOU. Top Lessons Learned From 300+ Shows 1.

My friend, I know you already know this, but thank you for being here and being a part of this community who are up to big things, and doing the physical and emotional work needed to live life well. Until I see you again real soon, I’m wishing you love and wellness. - Josh Trent Power Quotes From The Show Just The Joy Of The Conversation Is A Gift "I had no idea that my life would be this rewarding and this challenging. I say I have both because if you look at any relationship, whether it's with friends or a significant other, it's when we go through the challenges of travel and connection and schedules and work to actually get the podcast out there or even just going to a new town and meeting new people, there's always going to be a bitter before there's the sweet. So, the sweet is getting to be able to text Dr. Jade Teta or email Dave Asprey or connect with some of these people that I had idolized when I was a personal trainer but I've only done that because I did the work brick by brick, day by day, year by year to let these people know that when it was time for us to have a conversation, that I really cared and that I was really adamant about letting them know how much I respect them and whether or not I get anything from them besides a conversation, just the joy of the conversation was the gift. That is a great way to build friendships." - Josh Trent Healing Ourselves Every Day "If I'm always in the process of being my best self then I'm always in the process of being healed, cured, or evolving into whatever the new version of me has let go of. In other words, did I let go of stress, physical trauma, emotional trauma? Every single day, what am I being cured from? What am I stepping towards? That's the whole point of this life. If we don't constantly look at how we can heal and cure the spiritual malady that we have as a society; as a human race, then we're not going to make it. I believe in humanity; I believe we're going to make it but only if we look at this life through the healing and cured lense." - Josh Trent Doing The Work Together "When I think about the evolution of my healing, it comes through this podcast, and it's what I want people to feel from me every episode. Not only am I doing this work but we're also doing this work together so that when we're out of the spaces of doing the work, we can actually show up and live our life well. We can actually show up and have loving relationships and full joy and full expression and full connection with our friends and partners." - Josh Trent Links From Today's Show Civilized Caveman The Cured Collective Podcast The Tim Ferriss Show CURED Nutrition Joe Sheehey, CURED Nutrition Founder Paleo f(x) Oura Ring FitTech Summit Collective Podcast with Joseph Sheehey WFR 071 Melissa Hartwig The Whole 30 WFR 275 Paul Chek 23andMe WFR 214 Mansal Denton Nootropedia WFR 214 Jesse Lawler Smart Drugs Smarts Podcast Neurohacker Collective WFR 096 Daniel Schmachtenberger WFR 250 Dave Asprey WFR 293 Dr. Jade Teta Onnit WFR 196 Aubrey Marcus WFR 219 Kyle Kingsbury WFR 285 Luke Storey Rythmia WFR 269 Live From Rythmia: Gerry Powell & Jay Brown Carl Jung The Shadow Archetype - Carl Jung Jordan Peterson Biologic Effects of Stress and Bonding in Mother-Infant Pairs Living 4D with Paul Chek: Making A Love Connection - A Conversation With Josh Trent Living 4D with Paul Chek: The Revolution Is Coming: My Conversation With Josh Trent Connor Beaton of ManTalks M21 Breathwork.io Letting Go by David R.

Power Quotes From The Show "You are the CEO of your health and all change starts with people speaking up. Slowly but surely that becomes a movement against the current healthcare industry" - Adrienne Nolan Smith "All of us deep down know when we don't feel whole and we don't feel like we're really on the right track to living our best life or preventing and reversing from chronic illness when it might arise. It's important to do the work to arrive at a place where you feel whole and are able to experience everything that life has to offer from joy and movement to relationships and self-love." - Adrienne Nolan-Smith "You are the CEO of your health and all change starts with people speaking up. Slowly but surely that becomes a movement against the current healthcare industry and we truly have no choice because if you look at the rate of this chronic disease epidemic, it's just skyrocketing and there are no signs of it slowing down." - Adrienne Nolan-Smith "The conventional healthcare system loves scores, charts, and tests. So, I'm sure they could come up with some way to create a quiz or a test to score emotional intelligence if they haven't done so already. You can use those results to help any practitioner, doctor, or insurance company to understand the baggage that people with illnesses are holding onto as well as the fact that they're not self-aware or very emotionally intelligent to be able to work through what they're going through." - Adrienne Nolan-Smith "It's absolutely worth investing money into helping people quantify their emotional intelligence, understand their thoughts and feelings, and unpack what's inside. Sure it may take time to see trends and quantified results but I believe that anyone who invests in holistic health will see the impact of certain activities that either worsen or improve one's health." - Adrienne Nolan-Smith Links From Today's Show Dr. Kelly Brogan Rythmia The National Institutes of Health (NIH) PubMed The NIH Human Microbiome Project Dr. Laura Belus The HEAL documentary by Kelly Noonan Gores Kelly Turner Former surgeon general sounds the alarm on the loneliness epidemic Michael Pollan Johns Hopkins Psychedelic Research Unit 9 Key Factors Affecting Radical Remission From Cancer The "Loneliness Epidemic" Patient advocacy Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) Research WFR 236 Dr. Michael Ruscio WFR 129 Gretchen Rubin WFR 192 Jason Prall WFR 199 Peter Crone WFR 226 Paul Chek The WellBe Podcast How WellBe Are You? Quiz WellBe Guides WellBe Health News & Research WellBe Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube About Adrienne Nolan-Smith In her personal and professional experience, Adrienne Nolan-Smith has seen how integrative health and wellness are key to preventing and reversing disease. When she was 11, Adrienne was diagnosed with Lyme disease. Her conventional doctor prescribed antibiotics, but they didn’t work and her mother was then told there were no other options. Two years and multiple integrative therapies later, Adrienne was Lyme-free. Over the years, other health issues came up and each time it became clear that conventional doctors had tools to treat her symptoms, but they never got to the root of the problems, nor did they really try to cure them. In 2010, Adrienne lost her mother to suicide while she was on antipsychotic and antidepressant medications to treat schizoaffective disorder. At that point, Adrienne knew she needed to completely switch careers and began working for a healthcare technology company, hoping to fix the system from the inside. After several years working with hospitals, she realized that, until wellness is the standard of care, the current chronic disease crisis would only continue to rise. She also realized that until people demand wellness from their doctors, their brands, their employers, their governments and ultimately, from themselves, nothing will change. Adrienne founded WellBe to facilitate this change by helping you get and stay well, and demanding a system that supports you in this endeavor. Adrienne received her BA from Johns Hopkins University, her MBA from the Kellogg School at Northwestern University, and is a board-certified patient advocate (BCPA). She lives in New York City, where she was born and raised. Adrienne gets WellBe with acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and eating (mostly!) clean, real food.

Discover how you can reconnect with your inner source by disconnecting from the outside world and remember who you are at your core Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill Buy Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill by Udo Erasmus here Healing fats are among the necessary nutrients needed to prevent and reverse degenerative disease, heart disease, cancer, and Type 2 diabetes. They can also help reverse arthritis, obesity, PMS, allergies, asthma, fatigue, skin conditions, and yeast and fungal infections. At the same time, more health problems come from damaged oils than any other part of nutrition. Udo Erasmus exposes the manufacturing processes that turn healing fats into killing fats, explains the effects of these damaged fats on human health, and discloses the knowledge you need to avoid the damaged ones and choose health-promoting oils. He also explores the therapeutic potential of flax, hemp, olive, fish, evening primrose, borage, and black currant. "Peace is the deepest state of being and out of that comes love. On that level, love is the superlative state of being because love is all about giving." - Udo Erasmus Listen To Episode 272 As Udo Erasmus Uncovers: Why he chose to take a job spraying pesticides and how that came back to haunt him by poisoning him. The revelation he had on his wellness journey that health is our own responsibility. The incredible amount of damage that happens to oils when they are processed which then leads to poisoning the human body. How he naturally cured his body of the pesticides' poisons by fasting, moving, taking supplements, and paying attention to his nutrition. His North Star for staying true to himself and being present in real-life relationships. The message of his brand to help people find health from within and be content with their lives. The revelation his sister had about how people feel about death while visiting a hospice center. Why feelings of heartache, sorrow, and sadness are a reminder of the disconnection we have with ourselves. Why heartache is actually a gift, a reminder of being alive, and the starting part of feeling real joy.

The 8 steps designed by nature to lead you to wholeness. The importance of simply being honest if you don't know something instead of lying and saying or acting like you do know the answer. The biggest struggle for him in growing the Udo's Oil brand and his plans for the future. Why omega 3 and omega 6 oils are so essential for the human body and what happens when the body doesn't receive enough of them. The most common myths and misconceptions out there about natural oils. Why mistreating oils and using them to fry our foods is the worst thing we could ever possibly be doing to them. How you can heal the damage done by unhealthy products and foods. The benefits of sweating via saunas and exercising to detoxify the body for better health. Power Quotes From The Show "When you're fully present in the space that you occupy and you're not lost in your thoughts, it feels so good to be alive." - Udo Erasmus "While we're here on this planet, knowing that it's temporary, why don't we push to thrive rather than just try escaping from the pain by chasing carrots? We were made to thrive." - Udo Erasmus "Peace is the deepest state of being and out of that comes love. On that level, love is the superlative state of being because love is all about giving. Giving doesn't happen until we feel full or more than full with love. When that feeling happens, there's nothing else to do but to give and help others." - Udo Erasmus "Oils are the most sensitive of all of our nutrients so they should receive the most care including protection from light, oxygen, and heat. Unfortunately, we're mostly giving them the least amount of care. We're just throwing them into a frying pan and turning them into smoke. When we burn the oils, they burn us. When we fry the oils, they fry our health. They're vindictive and treat us like we treat them." - Udo Erasmus "How can food not be medicine? Your entire body is made out of light, oxygen, water, and nutrients. Nothing else. According to nature, drugs are not part of making human body's that already work. No one has ever had a drug deficiency. We throw drugs at problems to suppress symptoms but that is not fixing the cause. We can fix the cause by coming back aligned with nature. People aren't well, they're either out of line with their awareness, life energy, inspiration, movement, relationships, or the big picture." - Udo Erasmus Links From Today's Show WFR 265 Jennifer Sodini WITMA Live Fats That Heal, Fats That Kill by Udo Erasmus Man awarded $80M in lawsuit claiming Monsanto's Roundup causes cancer Abraham Maslow Joseph Campbell Finding Joe What is Health?

He was born in Poland during the Second World War to parents from Latvia and Estonia. His family emigrated to Canada when he was ten years old. He began his university studies at the age of sixteen and gained a B.Sc. in Zoology with a major in Psychology. This was followed by graduate studies in Biochemistry and Genetics at the University of British Columbia. In 1980, Erasmus was poisoned by pesticides, and, as a result of the experience, began to research the relationship between nutrition and health. He gave special attention to the effects of fats and oils on human health. Erasmus had become intrigued by the fact that Eskimos consumed largely fats, such as whale blubber, yet remained relatively healthy well into later life. In his research he discovered what he considered "healthy fats", that is fats which were beneficial rather than harmful to health. His thesis for his Ph.D. in nutrition was published with the title Fats and Oils in 1986. It was revised and expanded under the new name, Fats That Heal Fats That Kill (1993). Udo Erasmus has partnered with natural foods company Flora Inc., of Lynden, Washington, and Burnaby, British Columbia to produce the essential fatty acid blend called Udo's Choice Oil Blend as well as a line of probiotics and nutritional supplements.

How, without realizing it, centuries of socialization has programmed our expectations for human behavior. Words and phrases that have boxed women such as 'rational,' 'emotional,' or 'abrasive.'

The biggest challenges she faces as a therapist and how she has personally evolved in her profession. Power Quotes From The Show "If you don't speak your truth because you're afraid of being heard, then that will guarantee it'll never be heard." - Dr. Alessandra Wall "Women oftentimes know what's making them mad but they don't feel like they can say it because it wouldn't be 'nice,' it would result in conflict or something else. We don't think we're going to be heard so we don't put it out there but that then guarantees that we will never be heard if we never put it out into the world. If we at least put it out there then maybe we'll find out that either we're not communicating clearly, the person doesn't understand what we're saying, or the person doesn't care about what we want or need in which case we have this great piece of information that will help us decide what we want to do with this relationship." - Dr. Alessandra Wall "If there is a friend, family member, or partner who doesn't consistently care what you need or want, the answer is to walk away from that relationship because otherwise, you're always going to be resentful and unhappy with that person." - Dr. Alessandra Wall "Speaking up truly is that simple. All it takes is being in that space where you are okay with who you are so that you can put it out into the world and not be constantly walking in this space of being worried that if you admit that you have two versions of Vanilla Ice's, 'Ice, Ice Baby,' on your iTunes playlist that other people will judge you for it." - Dr. Alessandra Wall "Our lives aren't determined so much by our circumstances so much as they're determined by the choices that we make. If you don't like the way your life is going, you have to do something different and speaking up is just one way to make that happen." - Dr. Alessandra Wall "If you don't speak up, say what you mean, and mean what you say, then you're being the most dishonest, shallow, and untrue version of yourself. The kindest thing you can do with someone is to be honest with them about what you think, feel, how they make you feel, and what you need from them. That will create the strongest relationships." - Dr. Alessandra Wall Links From Today's Show Dr. Alessandra Wall LinkedIn Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube Pinterest Life In Focus Podcast Back To Me by Dr. Alessandra Wall Speak Up with Dr. Alessandra Wall Bridge The Gap with Dr. Alessandra Wall In Her Shoes Be More Confident: What Confidence Is And Is Not, And How To Build It Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking by Susan Cain Irresistible: The Rise of Addictive Technology and the Business of Keeping Us Hooked by Adam Alter Myers–Briggs Type Indicator Eckhart Tolle WFR 103 Robb Wolf WFR 183 Dr. Kyra Bobinet WFR 206 Dan Pardi About Dr. Alessandra Wall Dr. Alessandra Wall is a clinical psychologist, a coach, and an international speaker.

Power Quotes From The Show "Plant medicine and breathwork are the top two methods that we use at Rythmia. The plant medicine is inherently the earth's way to usher in transformation and a new level of consciousness." - Christian Minson "Taking plant medicine is truly a soul contract. You are changing the neurological pathways in your brain. Yes, you can do that on a certain level by detoxing or attending motivational seminars and receive the essence of it but plant medicine is the deepest level of transformation and it sticks because you are rewiring your brain and making a soul contract. There is nothing else in the world that I have experienced, seen, or heard of that can do that." - Candice Marie-Fox "People have a concept of who they are in a labeled box. So, when they come to Rythmia and that box gets blow open and they finally have an awakening and see that they're so much more than that box they've put themselves in. The mastery is then going home and applying that awakening. However, once they go home, the real work starts as they have to apply that awakening to their thoughts, actions, and lifestyles in order to maintain and grow this realized awakening of who they are." - Christian Minson "Not every thought that comes into your head is necessarily yours. They could be guidance, intuition, or awareness for you to take the next step in your life." - Candice Marie-Fox "If you're dissatisfied with something in your life, it's because you're either thinking in the future or dwelling in the past. Breathwork will bring you back to the present because the only place where you can breathe is the present." - Christian Minson "We're all trying to get to a higher state of consciousness and getting involved in other people's energy will just lower our vibration. Don't take life too seriously; none of us get out of this alive and this is not the end. Our true home is that energy in heaven and it's so beautiful beyond belief. Sometimes we just get lost but once you drink the plant medicine, you're reminded to just be present, be a good person, and act from love. Literally let your thoughts, speech, and actions be in true alignment and the universe will act in your favor." - Candice Marie-Fox "Fear is the compass needle pointing north. Whatever you're the most afraid of, go in that direction. It's an uncomfortable sensation but it'll become easier to face that discomfort once you see the results.

Power Quotes From The Show "The heart's intelligence is actually much more powerful than the mind." - Jay Brown "There comes a time when your soul has learned its lessons and it wants back in. When that happens, you have to be truly willing to lay your life on the line to merge back with your soul." - Gerry Powell "If you don't let your guard down or if you only lay it down a little bit, you're not going to go as deep. Your soul is not going to be able to come fully into the experience with you." - Jay Brown "I'll never be healed. Healing is an endgame. I don't want to be healed because I like being alive." - Gerry Powell "The heart's intelligence is actually much more powerful than the mind. So, when you connect the heart with the mind, you're in an even greater realm of manifestation and creation." - Jay Brown "What does the question, 'Are you happy?' even mean? Ask others, 'Are you content?' To be content means to be healed in this world. I don't want to be healed; I want to be content and fulfilled with my life." - Gerry Powell Links From Today's Show Rythmia Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Gerry Powell Facebook LinkedIn Instagram Jay Brown Facebook Instagram Evo Experience Facebook Instagram Twitter Sh*t The Moon Said by Gerry Powell HeartMath Rythmia Founder Gerard Armond Powell Heal Yourself with Plant Medicine | Rythmia Life Advancement Center | Ayahuasca Costa Rica Gary Vaynerchuk 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos by Jordan B.

Powell was the personification of the American Businessman: Rich, Powerful, and Unhappy. He opted to try anything available to hide from himself and his “perfect” life. Most of his existence he suffered from addiction and depression, incessantly trying to fill the hole deep within, with little or no success. Ultimately, after much trial and error, he found the key to true success and happiness. Today, he serves as a conscious entrepreneur, thought leader, philanthropist and public speaker on a mission to share the modalities and philosophies that transformed his life. And so, Gerry founded the Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Guanacaste, Costa Rica which is a medically licensed life transformation center that is focused on drug and alcohol addiction, general health and wellness and spiritual development. Their team of naturopathic healers, health specialists, and spiritual teachers are all working in tandem to create the most integrative programs in the world. Their goal is to continually provide the best healing practices anywhere for a complete mind, body, and spiritual renewal for each and every person. Their gift is the gift of being able to bring true healing to you, and offer you the setting and tools to do just that. About Jay Brown Jay Brown is a life hacker and professor of play.

Power Quotes From The Show "No one ever finishes their inner work because the mystery is bottomless." - Steven Kessler "Most of us are so used to being in one or more patterns that we think that's who we are. If you ask someone, 'Why do you behave that way?' They'll respond, 'That's just the way I am,' or 'That's all I know,' or 'That's me,' because they're not used to experiencing themselves as presence. They're only used to experiencing themselves in pattern." - Steven Kessler "To be present in the moment is to be here and fully here rather than have an automatic mechanism from the past running in the background that is distorting your perception, thoughts, and feelings. In order to be present now, you cannot be in your personality pattern." - Steven Kessler "We'll select the safety strategies that work the best for us and then repeat them over and over again. As we repeat our favorite safety strategies, they become conditioned into our body and develop into personality patterns. These patterns run automatically as soon as we even feeling slightly overwhelmed." - Steven Kessler "I don't use the term, 'personality types,' because this is not who you are from birth to death. A Personality pattern is a map of safety strategies or what you do rather than who you are." - Steven Kessler Links From Today's Show Steven Kessler Facebook LinkedIn YouTube Pinterest The 5 Personality Patterns by Steven Kessler Your Personality Profile EFT Therapy Center with Steven Kessler Steven Kessler on 5 Personality Patterns: Understanding Yourself & Others Diamond Heart Meditation School Lynda Caesara Be Here Now by Ram Dass Abraham-Hicks Publications Dr. Gabor Mate WFR 250 Dave Asprey About Steven Kessler Steven Kessler has been studying people his whole life.

Power Quotes From The Show "If you don't share your unique gifts, talents, and passions, it'll eat you up inside. It's just a matter of time before it makes you miserable because you will be further and further away from your purpose." - Charles Clay "The body is able to heal when we learn how to breathe properly. Proper breathing allows us to relax the nervous system in a way that we might not have been used to before. My breathwork practice has now evolved to what I call expansion breathing which is a really simple, experiential breath technique that starts recalibrating the way we breathe. Once you combine that with the optimal activation of your core and the alignment of your body, you have yourself a technique called the Bulletproof Core." - Charles Clay "When people have the tools to really feel, let go, and transmute anger into something constructive, then they can easily move into courage, hope, and back to their natural state of joy." - Charles Clay "Neurokinetic therapy gave me incredible results and has become this amazing tool that I now use to uncover the deeper layers. Through it, we can address the metaphysical, emotional, and physiological aspects to help release tension, activate muscle, and restore function in the body. Once you restore function, there's no need for pain. Pain is the check engine light and understanding that has changed my whole mindset about pain. Pain has now become one of my greatest teachers because it's really allowed me to dive in, appreciate the signals from my body, and improve that relationship I have with it." - Charles Clay Links From Today's Show Connect with Charles Clay via: Facebook Email at fitlifesd@gmail Instagram YouTube The Bulletproof Core Program Roadmap to Self-Mastery, 8 Week M Powered Men’s Group Training The 4 Keys to Happiness FREE Gift The Better Business Book How Death Opens The Masculine Heart Neurokinetic Therapy Valsalva maneuver David Hawkins Larry King Answers the Question: "What's Life All About?"

Vital nutrients that are in meat and not plants such as bioavailable vitamin B12. The EAT-Lancet study on meat and why they recommended eating only 2 oz of meat a day with the environment in mind.

The carnivore diet that has recently taken off in the last couple of years. Power Quotes From The Show "If you can afford to eat grass-fed, then eat fattier cuts of meat but if you can only afford to eat traditional meat, then eat as lean of meat as possible." - Shawn Mihalik "Crops such as wheat, rice, and soy take a lot of resources and deplete the soil. In comparison, regenerative farms, take us to a whole other level of farming. If done right, they can be carbon positive. If you were to eat animals that were raised this way, you would be actively helping the environment because it nourishes the soil, actively restores grasslands, and new wildlife if brought into the area." - Shawn Mihalik "Most animals that we eat today are not fed the grasses that they were evolved to eat but wheat, soy, and corn which are heavily modified. This then leads the animals to develop a whole different omega 3 to omega 6 ratio than what our ancestors ate. We can still find the same type of meat that our ancestors ate but the majority of us are eating animals that have been raised in these stressful, abusive environments and we're eating the energy of these animals." - Shawn Mihalik "Most of our current cropland is actually being used to grow the wheat, corn, and soy that is feeding factory farmed animals; not to grow what's feeding humans and that is part of why we currently have a food shortage. So, if everybody ate sustainably grown meat, we would be repurposing a lot of that land and replenishing that soil as well. In addition, we probably wouldn't be eating as much meat as we currently do now but we would be eating higher quality meat." - Shawn Mihalik Links From Today's Show Shawn Mihalik Twitter Facebook Paleo Magazine Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Pinterest Paleo Magazine Radio PMR #249: Can We Fix Meat?

We all face wars inside of us. Some are self-doubt, regret, loneliness, fear of failure, and the need to be in control but we have weapons. Our weapons are love, good friends, exercise, nutrition, rest, and living in each and every moment. - Dr. Theresa Larson Are you holding back from asking for help out of fear of judgment, shame, or appearing weak? ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | *REVIEW THIS PODCAST In Wellness Force Radio episode 261, Author of Warrior: A Memoir, Physical Therapist at MovementRx, Host of the My New Normal Podcast, and former Marine Corps Engineer Officer and Combat Veteran, Dr. Theresa Larson, shares how the loss of her mother led to her bulimia, why it's a sign of strength to ask for help, and what helps her stay centered, balanced, and focused on herself by setting healthy boundaries. Discover how to become your own warrior of wellness with Dr. Theresa's LOVE Principle: Lead Oxygen Vulnerability Elasticity Warrior by Dr. Theresa Larson Click here to read Warrior: A Memoir by Dr. Theresa Larson In this inspiring memoir, a former female Marine platoon leader recalls the wars she has fought—on the playing field, the battlefield, and inside her own soul—revealing how overcoming the harrowing circumstances in her life helped her ultimately redefine what it means to be strong and what “perfect” really is. Theresa Larson has lived multiple lives. At ten she was a caregiver to her dying mother. As an adolescent, an All-Star high school, college, and professional softball player. As a young adult, a fitness competition winner, beauty pageant contestant, and model. And as a grown woman, a high-achieving Lieutenant in the Marines, in charge of an entire platoon while deployed in Iraq. Meanwhile, Theresa was battling bulimia nervosa, an internal struggle which ultimately cut short her military service when she was voluntarily evacuated from combat. Theresa’s journey to wellness required the bravery to ask for help, to take care of herself first, and abandon the idea of “perfect.” In Warrior, she lays bare all of these lives in intimate and vivid detail, examining extremely personal and sometimes painful moments and how, by finally accepting the help of others, she learned to make herself whole. From growing up in a log cabin outside Seattle to facing down the enemy in Iraq, Theresa’s journey demonstrates that good health and happiness is a daily, intentional act that requires persistence and commitment. Theresa hopes that through sharing her story, she will help inspire others to empower themselves, embrace their inner warrior and re-define strength. Startling and funny, terrifying and triumphant, heartbreaking and inspirational, Warrior is at heart a story of perseverance and success—of a determined woman who is model for everyone struggling to conquer their own demons. Theresa shows that asking for help can be an act of courage and that we are stronger than we think when faced with seemingly impossible odds. "We all face wars inside of us but our weapons are love, good friends, exercise, nutrition, rest, and living in each and every moment." - Dr. Theresa Larson Listen To Episode 261 As Dr. Theresa Larson Uncovers: Why a true warrior is someone who is open to being vulnerable, asking for help, and taking ownership for yourself. How her bulimia began and how she transitioned out for it when she finally asked for help and received the outside support she needed. Her childhood and the story she told herself after her mother's death that to be loved, she had to achieve. The special relationship she had with her mother and why The Phantom Of The Opera meant so much to them. The words of advice and love from her mother that have made a lasting impact on her own life and wellness journey. Why there's always a way out if you're struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts. How the sport of softball helped give her power, control, and positive affirmations. The need she had to win and be noticed by everybody as a young athlete which then led to her struggling to take care of herself. How she and her brothers helped their father improve his health and bounce back with purpose after the passing of his wife. Why the more pressure people face, the more it exasperates undealt demons. Why eating disorders aren't about food but an addiction that begins in the soul and the lack of belief in oneself. The judgment she felt from other people when she went on medical leave during her deployment in Iraq. Why judgment and dismissing opinions will only feed a person's addiction and negative behavior patterns. The various tools of distraction we face today in modern society and how they affect our health, relationships, and wellness journey. Steps she takes to set up healthy boundaries to stay true to her purpose, take care of her health, and be there for her family. How she handles being the North Star in her own life without her parents no longer being there to support her. What skills we can focus on obtaining to learn how to live in and embrace the present moment. Why multitasking is taking away from your self-care practice and attention to life. How to fill your cup by first spending time alone to self-reflect, get your thoughts out there, and get to know yourself. The toll that invisible wounds like eating disorders can take on people and why you should never compare your issues to other people's. Power Quotes From The Show "People shouldn't have to wait as long as I did to ask for help. There should be support already there for these individuals that are going to war. As our children grow up, we should be teaching them coping skills and that it's okay to be vulnerable. I find that the more vulnerable I am, the more authentic and powerful I am as an individual." - Dr. Theresa Larson "You can look great from the outside and have all of this success but I want to know how you truly are, how you handle stress, and how you're coping with what you're experiencing. Asking other people or even yourself those kinds of questions matter. How are you coping? Do you have anything going on in your life where you just feel empty inside? Find out why that is and what's causing you to feel that way because that is not living." - Dr. Theresa Larson "Life is chaotic as it is and we have to let go of distraction. Put your technology away and don't have it with you at the dinner table or when you go out to eat lunch with your family. When you're doing a task whether at work or at home, solely be present with doing that task. Multitasking actually makes you really ineffective and scatterbrained. The key is to clear your attention when you're feeling overwhelmed, let distractions go, and be present with the person in front of you because that dopamine response you get is going to be so much greater." - Dr. Theresa Larson Links From Today's Show Dr. Theresa Larson Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Movement Rx Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Warrior: A Memoir by Dr. Theresa Larson My New Normal Podcast MobilityWOD The Low Back Fix The Knee Fix The Shoulder Fix What Being a Warrior Really Means | Theresa Larson | TEDxUCSD From Sports to Inner Struggles, Former Marine Lieutenant is a Warrior Helping Others Michael Phelps Gets Real About Mental Illness Organifi - Ashwagandha Study Body For Life War and the Soul by Edward Tick Gabor Mate Simon Sinek WFR 164 Anders Varner About Dr. Theresa Larson Dr. Theresa Larson (aka “Dr. T”) has become one of the fitness world’s most sought after experts on movement health.

Can we really afford to just wait and only treat people when they're chronically ill? No, we simply cannot continue to fund this problem. Through KNEW Health, we’re creating a new story that empowers people to own their wellness, save money, and receive the healthcare they actually need. - James Maskell Are you ready to take your health into your own hands without insurance, bureaucracy, and high healthcare costs holding you back? ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | *REVIEW THIS PODCAST In Wellness Force Radio episode 259, Creator of The Functional Forum, CEO & Founder of The Evolution of Medicine, and Author of The Evolution of Medicine, and Founder of KNEW Health, James Maskell, discusses how the healthcare system is set up to keep people hooked on long-term medications and actually lead them to worse health, why functional medicine's focus is turning towards whole health treatments, and why reversing chronic disease should be our number one priority right now in the world of healthcare. Discover how functional medicine, community micro practice, and direct primary care will change the future of healthcare as we know it. KNEW Health Finally, the alternative to expensive health insurance you've been waiting for. Click here to learn more about KNEW Health today. KNEW Health is not an insurance company. We are a community of healthy, happy, wellness-minded individuals like yourself, who work together to stay well and contribute to a community fund to support one another’s large medical bills. Think of this as a safety net for large, unexpected medical costs. Because you take care of your health, you’re likely to need less medical expense support — so why should you pay insane insurance premiums when you can have your large expenses supported by our Medical Cost-Sharing Community that is over 10,000 members strong? With conventional health insurance, you–the healthy person who exercises, doesn’t smoke, and eats fresh fruits and vegetables–are subsidizing the medical expenses of people who smoke, don’t exercise, and eat junk food all day. How unfair is that? Furthermore, with health insurance, it’s likely you’re paying these high premiums and yet not using many of your benefits. That’s money down the drain each and every month. At KNEW Health, you’ll be paying so much less each month–which gives you more money to invest in wellness and preventative care, such as fitness classes, acupuncture, massage, healthy fresh food, and herbs and supplements. Wouldn’t you rather invest your monthly health expenses into life-giving wellness care, rather than sending that money to faceless health insurance bureaucracies, never to be seen again? By making a commitment to living a healthy lifestyle, you’re helping transform health care. "Many of us don't need these expensive medical visits, lab tests, and pharmaceuticals. Most chronic disease is driven by lifestyle and can be fixed by lifestyle." - James Maskell Listen To Episode 259 As James Maskell Uncovers: KNEW Health - What it is, how it can help you, and how it's changing the narrative around healthy lifestyles and self-awareness. Why he did the KNEW Health Tour - a 4-month family trip to launch evolution of alternative health. Why functional medicine goes much further into our health's journey than just a couple of lab tests. How functional medicine can help prevent the body from degrading, slowing down, and experiencing chronic disease. The Community Micro Practice - how it's benefiting the world of functional medicine and changing the lives of both healthcare practitioners and their patients. The vital importance of looking at our emotions and past traumas so that they do not manifest into a disease. Steps people can take to begin looking for a functional medicine practitioner that's right for them. What Direct Primary Care is and how it can improve a doctor's relationship with patients and the ability to afford healthcare. His 3-part strategy for the true transformation of healthcare explained. The high amount of insurance he was facing while living and working in New York City and what answers he found when he sought out different opportunities. His mission to begin his own program to help people save money on insurance and encourage others to reach out to functional medical doctors when they really need it. The experiences that transformed his life and drove him to keep going in his mission and see this functional medicine movement through. How the company, Heal, is changing healthcare by having practitioners go straight to the patients' homes. The flood of new applications and tools that are available right now such as GoodRx and MDSave which can help you cut down on the price of healthcare. His explanation for why it's unlikely that functional medicine will be delivered through health insurance anytime soon. Why it's easier to change your behavior and reduce chronic disease while in a group environment compared to working one-on-one with a singular healthcare provider. How healing with psychedelics and marijuana can play a part in functional medicine. The first step you can take towards shifting your health by finding a community environment that can help you. "More medicine doesn't actually equal better health outcomes. In fact, the more you use the medical system, the worse your off your health outcomes are going to be in the long run." - James Maskell "Functional medicine is a new operating system of delivering health that is focused on three main principles: root cause resolution, holistic viewpoint, and participatory system. What really differentiates functional medicine from integrative, naturopathic, or holistic medicine is that it's a reproducible system and structure which helps everyone follow the same steps. In that sense, it prioritizes what you should be doing in a specific order and that makes it much more efficient than other methods." - James Maskell "The most effective way that functional medicine is being delivered is through a group format such as that at The Cleveland Clinic. There's really something powerful about the vulnerability of being in front of a group and the community that's created by being amongst supportive peers." - James Maskell "What will it take to facilitate a consciousness transformation in how we view healthcare? There is a very clear engine of transformation consciousness that happens when people go to a functional medicine doctor. When you go to an empathetic provider like that, they will empower you to take action to form a new story about your life." - James Maskell "If you can get people to change behavior in a group environment, a lot of the chronic disease will go away. Many of us don't need these expensive medical visits, lab tests, and pharmaceuticals. Most chronic disease is driven by lifestyle and can be fixed by lifestyle, we just need structures that are efficient enough to deliver it." - James Maskell Links From Today's Show James Maskell Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn KNEW Health Facebook Instagram YouTube The Functional Forum The Evolution of Medicine The Evolution of Medicine by James Maskell Rythmia GoodRx app MDSave app Heal.com ICEERS - International Center for Ethnobotanical Education, Research Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies - MAPS Dr. Mark Hyman Valerian/lemon balm use for sleep disorders during menopause.

Masculinity and femininity are inherently beautiful, yet the media has distorted these words with the phrase “toxic.” Together, now we get to decide as a culture how to move forward with a new narrative. Society is changing, and we’re not going backward. - Boysen Hodgson What factors of our culture and society are no longer serving the feminine and masculine? How can we come and work together to create something new that fits what we want? ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | *REVIEW THIS PODCAST In Wellness Force Radio episode 258, Marketing & Communications Director for The ManKind Project USA and author of The New Macho, Boysen Hodgson, explains what has created "toxic" masculinity and feminity, how men and women can process and connect through safe spaces, and the #IAmResponsible Campaign that MKP has launched in response to #MeToo. Learn how men can support each other to heal from their past traumas, come to their whole masculine and feminine selves, and realign with women. The ManKind Project Presents: The New Warrior Training Adventure Click here to sign up for The New Warrior Training Adventure The New Warrior Training Adventure: A life-changing 48-hour experience brought to you by the ManKind Project, an international nonprofit organization. The New Warrior Training Adventure is a challenging real-time hero's journey. It's safe, supportive and cutting edge. It is not a retreat, a conference or a workshop. It is unlike anything you've done before. Many men say that this experience is a turning point in their lives, an event that marks the beginning of a new way of being in the world. It is a singular type of life-affirming event, honoring the best in what men have to offer the planet. We are only able to recognize the powerful brilliance of men because we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating ... and suffering. This is the paradox of modern masculinity, and it is a lesson we are dedicated to learning and teaching. The New Warrior Training Adventure is a modern male initiation and self-examination. We believe that this is crucial to the development of a healthy and mature male self, no matter how old a man is. It is the "hero's journey" of classical literature and myth that has nearly disappeared in modern culture. We ask men to stop living vicariously through movies, television, addictions, and distractions and step up into their own adventure - in real time and surrounded by other men. What we practice at The New Warrior Training Adventure and why: Emotional Authenticity - Because we believe in honesty and wholeness ... we practice emotional intelligence and self-awareness. Personal Responsibility - Because we value integrity and accountability ... we take 100% responsibility for our feelings, and we own the impacts - both positive and negative - of our choices and actions. Leadership Mastery - Because we believe that role models change lives ... we practice highly principled personal, interpersonal, and group leadership. Empowered Mission - Because we value generosity, service, and connection to spirit ... we explore and live from our deepest purpose. Supportive Community - Because we care for ourselves and the generations to come ... we create a place for men from all walks of life to learn and teach in a safe, respectful, challenging, and inclusive peer-network. "We need emotional expression, vulnerability, and softness in men. We need men as nurturers. What is a farmer if not a nurturer? We need that in our world today." - Boysen Hodgson Listen To Episode 258 As Boysen Hodgson Uncovers: The ManKind's mission as a non-profit and the work they do which includes men's groups all over the US, over 150 global training programs, and The New Warrior Training Adventure. Some of his top influences including David Deida and authors of King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine, Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette. Why more than ever we need to teach men that they can express their emotions, be vulnerable, and more nurturing. The narrative and division we see in the media focusing on "toxic" femininity and masculinity. Where the phrase, "toxic" masculinity comes from as a counterpoint to "deep" masculinity. "Toxic" masculinity compared to "toxic" femininity in a world of disconnection and the wave of the feminist movement. How today's modern world is affecting men in the workplace, at home, and higher rates of depression and suicide. Epigenetics and long legacies of trauma that has been inflicted on portions of our society. The powerful practices of moving, zen, and sitting meditation. How they use various archetypes to embody different energies during their Men's Work at MKP. Why the archetype, Sovereignty, is so important for both the masculine and the feminine. The power of purpose and how it and the sovereign energy directly impact your life. Where he was at in his purpose, thoughts, and relationships during his 20s vs. now as a husband, father, and part of MKP's mission. Lessons he learned from observing his father's relationships, his own unhealthy relationship, and processing all of that before he could let go and become his own purpose. How men and women can process and connect together and alone through safe spaces. How men can support each other to heal from their past traumas, come to their whole masculine and feminine selves, and realign with women who've also done the work. How "pink collar jobs" such as teaching have created a divide between men and women as far as what careers are acceptable for each gender. How doing men's work has helped him tap into his himself and his inner Golden Child to help the relationship he has with his children grow. Power Quotes From The Show "As a society, we have to slow down, be present, and get quiet. It's only in that quiet that I can hear my soul or that I can create the possibility to hear yours." - Boysen Hodgson "We have launched a campaign, #IAmResponsible, in response to #MeToo. It's not about, 'Hey, Brother - I'm responsible for your actions' but 'I'm 100% responsible for my actions, for creating the type of culture that I want to live in, and for what masculinity looks like today." - Boysen Hodgson "At men's group, 'breathe' is probably the first and most powerful incantation that I can do with a man doing a piece of emotional process work. Where are you breathing, how are you breathing into your body, where do I see you inhabiting breath into your body? When you stop breathing, that tells me something about what you're going through." - Boysen Hodgson "Both men and women whether individually or in groups, let's trust each other enough to let us do that work. Society has changed and we're not going backward. What the world needs from us as men is different than what the world needed from us then. Let's move toward the evolution of creating beautiful hearts that want to be connected, loved, shared, and protected." - Boysen Hodgson "The environment has to be painful enough to motivate a man enough to take action. Men will have a sense in their gut that it's time to do something. So, what we can all do as men is to create and hold a space for when you see a man in your life who you know is experiencing that." - Boysen Hodgson "Men will show up. Men are hungry to be healthy influences and role models. We can fix our community by showing up as men. Through #IAmResponsible, we're stating that we are 100% responsible for our actions, for creating the type of culture that we want to live in, and for what masculinity looks like today." - Boysen Hodgson Links From Today's Show Boysen Hodgson Facebook Twitter LinkedIn The ManKindProject Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube The New Warrior Training Adventure The New Macho by Boysen Hodgson #IAmResponsible Campaign David Deida King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine by Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette Dr. Robert Augustus Masters Iron John by Robert Bly The Art of Charm Podcast Dr. Shepherd Bliss The End of Men by Hanna Rosin We Believe: The Best Men Can Be | Gillette (Short Film) Integral Meditation by Ken Wilbur Planet on Purpose by Brandon Peele Amber Ward of Life UnLtd The M21 Guide from Wellness Force WFR 149 Johnny Blackburn About Boysen Hodgson Boysen Hodgson is the author of ‘The New Macho,’ a credo for the mature masculine.

When you do that, you're making an active choice to not show up and be the best version of yourself that you can be." - Harpreet Rai Listen To Episode 252 As Harpreet Rai Uncovers: How Oura is helping people with their weight loss progress through tracking and teaching them about their sleep status. The guilt he first faced when leaving work to go exercise and how he got over that feeling. The three barriers we face that keep us from focusing on our health: time, money, and guilt. How the Oura ring acts as a mirror of mindfulness to help us keep showing up in life. The alarming amount of Americans that are currently taking medication for sleep How social media, smartphones, and even Netflix are amplifying our stress and anxiety which then leads us to poor sleeping habits. The little amount of sleep he was getting a night at 4 hours while being an investment banker and how that led to gaining a pound each week. The importance of starting our day at the exact same time every morning and being exposed to sunlight throughout the day. How self-monitoring our sleep patterns can be just what we need to help change our behavior and habits. The wellness journey of one Oura ring user and how cutting out the 4 o'clock coffee helped him go back to a normal sleep cycle. The latency feature of the Oura ring that tells you how long it takes you to fall asleep and why you shouldn't be falling asleep right away. How breath is integrated into Oura and the technology aspect with the respiration rate. Why they chose a ring as their product from both a comfort and accuracy standpoint. Why no single wearable is 100% accurate but the most important thing to consider is precision in the day to day data. How they've designed the Oura ring to be very accurate in its precision to help the individual track their sleep and health. Results Oura users have seen reflected in their data when they've made changes to create a better sleeping atmosphere. How the 5 senses change when we're sleeping and how to create your best night's sleep experience. The benefits of relaxing and stretching before bed that we don't normally consider. How Oura can lead the charge in conversations about personal development through the use of mindfulness and wellness technology. Power Quotes From The Show "If you don't measure something, how does it get mastered? But is sleep the be all end all? No; I think there are so many things we need to do to be great humans and sleep is a great place to start." - Harpreet Rai "Addiction to our phones and social media has completely amplified our poor sleeping habits. Our stress and anxiety are leading to poor nutrition and weight gain. We can't sleep well if we're being pulled in different directions by every notification that pops up on our phones." - Harpreet Rai "When people start to see personal data that pertains to themselves, they begin to question those findings. You might ask yourself, 'Why am I not getting any deep sleep?' and then you seek answers from other Oura users, podcasts, or books. Once you just start to see the data becoming personal, you'll start to reflect, change habits, and notice patterns." - Harpreet Rai "If you rewind thirty or forty years ago and before the Internet, we probably used to be able to naturally tell whether or not we got a good's night rest and feel the difference. We used to feel and think about our sleeping patterns a lot more but now we're so distracted and I don't think we have time to feel. Now that we're busier than ever, it's harder for us to take the time to concentrate on what our bodies are telling us and therefore, tracking makes more sense now than it ever did before. Tracking holds you accountable as you start to look at the data and ask yourself simple questions that can lead to lifestyle changes." - Harpreet Rai "If you don't measure something, how does it get mastered? But is sleep the be all end all? No; I think there are so many things we need to do to be great humans and sleep is a great place to start. If you don't sleep properly, it's probably going to be harder to eat better, exercise more, and just be a good human being. Sleep sets you up on the right track to succeed." - Harpreet Rai Links From Today's Show Harpreet Rai LinkedIn Facebook Instagram Twitter ŌURA Twitter Facebook Instagram YouTube Vimeo WFR 160 Petteri Lahtela - Co-Founder, President, and CIO of Oura The NEW Oura Ring The Philosophy Behind Oura Oura user @sandiegojoey on Instagram Find Your Own Circadian Rhythm Ten Ways to Sleep Better Right Now Heart Rate While Sleeping: Look for These 3 Patterns Nobel Prize for discoveries of molecular mechanisms controlling the circadian rhythm Why Your Brain Feels So Foggy From Sleep Deprivation Sleep deprivation and hippocampal vulnerability A single night of sleep deprivation #53 Harpreet Rai | Human Optimization Hour w/Kyle Kingsbury Strategy of Monitoring: Gretchen Rubin Center For Sleep And Cognition Joe Rogan Experience #1109 - Matthew Walker - YouTube Nick Littlehales' Guide to Understanding Sleep Ethan Weiss | UCSF Profiles Kelly Starrett Dr. Rebecca Robbins Dr. Joseph Mercola Ben Greenfield The Morning 21 WFR 125 Dr. Kirk Parsley WFR 129 Gretchen Rubin WFR 206 Dan Pardi WFR 250 Dave Asprey About Oura Health Join The Wellness Warrior VIP Club: **Click on the photo above to get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** More Top Episodes 226 Paul Chek: The Revolution Is Coming (3 Part Series) 131 Drew Manning: Emotional Fitness 129 Gretchen Rubin: The Four Tendencies 183 Dr. Kyra Bobinet: Brain Science 196 Aubrey Marcus: Own The Day 103 Robb Wolf: Wired To Eat Best of The Best: The Top 10 Guests From over 200 Shows Get More Wellness In Your Life Join the WFR Community on facebook Tweet us on Twitter: Send us a fun tweet (or a what's up) Comment on the Facebook page Rate & Review Wellness Force

Yoga understands that we are all divine beings and we are also a product of our imprinting. Yoga is designed to allow you to break free of those chains of your human conditioning."- Niraj Naik "Everything is divine and we choose to either tune into it or not. That choice comes from your level vibrational energy of L-O-V-E. The more love you have for yourself and others, the more connected you'll be to this divine energy." - Niraj Naik "Heavy emotions such as fear, anger, rage, rage, and guilt are what really binds us to the earth in a way that we end up in survival mode. Specifically, guilt is a really, really terrifying emotion to experience for a long period of time and it can just paralyze you. If we can change that emotional state without using drugs, antidepressants, or even having to resort to psychedelics and do it naturally through our own body instead, then we're getting somewhere. That's what I focused on through pranayama, yoga, and Ayurveda." - Niraj Naik "What is the best thing that the yogis have done for us? They taught us how to have an off switch for stress which is the breath and the exhale. By learning how to exhale properly, hold your breath, and control your breath, in certain ways, we actually learn how to control the entire physiology of our mind." - Niraj Naik "The exhaled breath is our off switch for stress. By learning how to control, hold, and properly exhale our breath, we can actually discover how to manage the entire physiology of our mind." - Niraj Naik Links From Today's Show Niraj Naik Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn SOMA Breath Facebook Community Instagram The Renegade Pharmacist Facebook YouTube The 21-Day Awakening Breath Protocol Program Scientific Explanation Of Soma Breath What Happens One Hour After Drinking a Can of Coke Niraj Naik – Healing with The Power of Breath 24 Questions with Niraj Naik Renegade Health Test: How healthy are you really?

Hawkins WFR 209 Jamie Wheal WFR 226 Paul Chek About Niraj Naik Niraj Naik is a qualified pharmacist who comes from a background of working long hours for several years as a community pharmacist. Becoming a certified “legal drug dealer” at the ripe age of 24, he got to witness first-hand, many clients going home with shopping bags full of drugs each month, rarely getting better and usually going on to suffer from other diseases. He also learnt of the debilitating side effects of the prescription medication which drove many of the patients to have to take more and more drugs to ease the side effects. Curious to find ways to improve his own health he attended several health seminars and discovered an in-depth approach on how to reach optimum health and vitality by understanding the true origin of disease and how to prevent it. After experiencing great benefits with his own health, Niraj was motivated to devise a scheme to see if he could also help his suffering patients. He incorporates a lifestyle plan called his "healthy shopping lists' that includes simple food swaps, tools, and websites to support their specific condition. Niraj is now a professional musician, holistic health expert, and entrepreneur. He runs several successful websites that help others who suffer from stress-related, chronic diseases through his self-composed, captivating meditation music, and online courses. Niraj has composed music for healing centres, spas, and therapists worldwide.

It's not necessarily food that's leading to obesity. It's what's inside our food, what's wrapped around our food, and even what we're cooking our food on that's creating this epidemic.- Dr. David Friedman ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

Discover why obesogens like pesticides, chemicals, and Monsanto can be the cause of obesity, gluten sensitivity, and digestion problems instead of solely food itself. "Food controls the essence of who we are and has the power to either heal or harm. When we alter our nutrition, our health can be improved in a matter of days. Food is medicine." - @drdavidfriedman Food Sanity Click here to get your own copy of Food Sanity by Dr. David Friedman During his 25 years as a holistic practitioner and health expert on syndicated TV and radio, Dr. David Friedman has interviewed hundreds of world-renowned doctors and bestselling authors. From proponents of a Vegan, Paleo, Mediterranean Diet to a Gluten Free and Low Carb Diet, the opinions are as different as night and day. After becoming frustrated with all the conflicting research and opinions, Dr. Friedman wrote Food Sanity, which explores all the fads, facts and fiction. Using a common science meets common sense approach, this groundbreaking book finally answers the big question: WHAT THE HECK ARE WE SUPPOSED TO EAT?!! Readers will discover never-before-heard nutritional and dieting advice that will ensure they get the maximum benefits from their food and dietary supplements. Food Sanity offers a definitive blueprint on how to eat in the unhealthiest developed country in the world... the good ole USA. Listen To Episode 246 As Dr. David Friedman Uncovers: Why we should follow the saying, "If it's white, keep it out of sight," and avoid processed foods including flour, sugar, milk, salt, or corn-based foods etc. to help balance our blood sugar, increase energy, lose weight, and sleep better. The list of white natural, unprocessed foods that are okay to eat such as cauliflower, garlic, mushrooms, bananas, white fish, and white poultry meat. How he lost the extra 15 pounds he had by deciding to take out organic, USDA approved popcorn from his nightly routine. What obesogens are and how they're the culprits that are wreaking havoc on our digestion and causing all sorts of stomach issues like leaky gut and inflammation. How genetics comes into play with our ability to digest certain foods and keeping our hormones in check. Other precautions we should make besides avoiding processed foods, chemicals, and certain cookware. Simple remedies for removing harmful plastics from your life that could be in your shower curtains, receipts, and skincare or beauty products. The importance of avoiding plastics with the recycling code 3 and 7 and instead look for plastic coding with either 1, 2, or 5. Why the label "microwave safe" doesn't mean it's actually safe for you and you should never microwave plastic. Why it truly matters to eat free-range, grass-fed, organic meat to avoid toxins and hormones. The importance of looking for supplements with the label, "Certified GMP" and avoiding the label, "GMP Methods Are Used" to know that it's been audited, checked, and it's a legit product. His interest in being a chiropractic and how that led him to study neurology, naturopathy, and nutrition as well. Why there was a fight between medical doctors and chiropractic practitioners that has improved but is still going on today. How connecting to a higher power can be a sustainable tool for weight loss for life. The actual amount of calcium and magnesium that is found in milk compared to better sources like plant milk including almond, hemp, and coconut milk. Why it's possible that you're more likely to develop colon cancer by eating red meat and where to find better meat alternatives such as bison. Milk alternatives such as cashew, almond, hemp, and coconut milk that many different diets from Paleo and Keto to Vegan and Vegetarian can all agree on. Whether or not there's a problem with using coconut products. Why we should eat slower for the sake of our body's health, to lose weight, digest better, and actually enjoy the food. Power Quotes From The Show "Eat until you're satisfied; not full. You should eat until you're satisfied and eventually that level of satisfaction becomes your fullness as your body gets used to that amount of food." - @drdavidfriedman "Let's face it, we didn't have this problem with gluten sensitivity and digestive problems 20, 30, 40, or 50 years ago. I don't blame food; I blame something called obesogens and these are chemicals that are actually found inside of our food, wrapped around our food, and sometimes even in the cookware that we cook our food on. These obesogens wreak havoc on our digestive system and make us unable to digest these foods which lead to inflammation and leaky gut. We can pinpoint starches and flours and blame them but it's really our inability to digest a lot of these foods. How could people eat a pizza 50 years ago and be fine with gluten? Now it seems to be such an issue and you can't blame gluten; it's the chemicals." - Dr. David Friedman "You can't blame your genes for why you can't fit into your jeans. Unless you are in the rare 3% of the population in which high blood pressure and being overweight runs in the family, you have to take control and stop blaming your ancestors. Of course, there are diseases that are genetic but I don't think our DNA is to blame when it comes down to food sensitivities. Our great-great-grandparents didn't have those issues with gluten nor faced this obesity and diabetes epidemics that are now happening." - Dr. David Friedman "We know the saying, 'You are what you eat,' but you are also what your meat eats and this includes the hormones used to increase the weight of cattle. So, when you eat the cattle, these same substances can increase your weight. Not only are hormones in meat production a contributing factor to our obesity issue but the antibiotics found in chicken to make them larger are fattening us up too." - Dr. David Friedman "I think our connection with food all begins in the mind. If you have a little bit of candy, don't beat yourself up about it and just give up on your nutrition goals. A lot of our food cravings are based on our mindset but they're also stress related. People will use food as a stress reliever and their best friends, Ben and Jerry, to give them comfort. If they can realize that food is not their antidepressant but fuel for their body, then they can ease into letting go of those unhealthy cravings in the beginning process of losing weight. They'll feel better, be less depressed, have more energy, improve their blood sugar, and sleep better because they will have fed their bodies with good nutrition. If you can make it through the first 21 days, then that last week will be easy." - Dr. David Friedman Links From Today's Show Dr. David Friedman Facebook Twitter LinkedIn YouTube Food Sanity by Dr. David Friedman A Cup of Coffee with 10 Leading Chiropractors in the United States by Dr. David Friedman Dr. David Friedman’s “To Your Good Health Radio” Chew On This Podcast 9 Foods That Are High in Resistant Starch The Sneaky Culprit Preventing Weight Loss Healing Power of Food Summit 23andMe Jack Canfield Bayer Just Bought Monsanto, Here's Why You Should Care WFR 226 Paul Chek WFR 236 Dr. Michael Ruscio About Dr. David Friedman Dr. David Friedman is an award-winning, #1 national best-selling author, Doctor of Naturopathy, Clinical Nutritionist and Chiropractic Neurologist.

There’s a big difference in following your passion and following your potential. Following your passion is a comfort zone in which you feel good because there is no challenge.

What unfolded next has become a masterclass in how to turn adversity to your advantage.

How we can go with the flow when unexpected events come up in life. What guidance he was missing in high school that led him to leave in order to pursue more from life as an entrepreneur. Why the ultimate resource we have is being able to be resourceful on our own. The pros and cons of the modern education system in this century. The path he went on to become successful through personal growth and entrepreneurship. Why knowing one thing but doing another are completely different and you have to apply what you've learned to really see results. The revelation he had that by applying himself, he had nothing to lose by trying. Why we have this need to be right in order to feel validated whether that's in relationships, politics, or war. Our brain's chemistry connection to our physical sensations and how that applies to negative or positive thinking. How our brain is built to adapt to different environments, stressors, and situations. His book, The Inside Track, and what he witnessed and experienced while spending 6 months in one of the toughest jails in the UK, Pentonville, and how that was his 'graduation event'.

How anyone is capable of reinventing themselves in order to reach their full potential. What it truly means to surrender from a higher power of vibration. Power Quotes From The Show "'The difference between freedom and liberty is that freedom is a state of mind and the only thing that can be reduced is your liberty. No one can take away your freedom.' - @PeterSage007" "An entrepreneur is simply being independent. Do you rely on something or someone else in order to get what you need to move forward or are you able to create that? That's the essence of an entrepreneur whether they're a parent, mother, or a business owner." - Peter Sage "Depending on where your progress is at, the word, "surrender" will come into play at different levels of meaning. If you're in a lower vibrational aspect or state of consciousness, you're going to hear the word, "surrender" from a place of acquiesce or giving up and being dominated. If you're coming from a place of power and you're swimming with the river of life rather than against it, then you can come from a place of surrendering in which you're allowing for yourself to be taken from something that's greater than you because you're putting your trust in the universe or whatever you believe in." - Peter Sage "The biggest challenge with money when it comes to the frustration and feeling wounded by it can be narrowed down to one false belief that our net worth is tied to our self-worth because the greatest fear we have as human beings is that we're not enough. Money is nothing more than a way that we perceive value. Most people will compromise their values around money faster than anything else to avoid the fear that they're not enough." - Peter Sage Links From Today's Show Peter Sage Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube The Inside Track by Peter Sage Peter Sage: Keeping It Real Behind Bars Peter Sage's Top 10 Rules For Success Peter Sage - How To Stop Thinking Negative Thoughts Team Sage – Our 2020 Vision Peter Sage - Lessons From My Skiing Accident Motivation vs Inspiration Steve Jobs Connect the Dots Quote Tony Robbins Wallace Wattles Napoleon Hill Michael Pollan Marathon des Sables WFR 226 Paul Chek WFR 236 Dr. Michael Ruscio About Peter Sage Peter Sage is a well known international & serial entrepreneur, author, philosopher, and teacher.

Be on the offense of strategy because today's an opportunity. We're not just surviving; we're going to thrive." - Matt Vincent @matSOawesome of HVIII Brand Goods on @WellnessForce Radio episode 240 wellnessforce.com/240 Click here to learn more about and buy from HVIII Brand Goods HVIII (sound it out: H+Roman Numeral 'VIII') is a strong term that many will find negative. Good. So do I. I refuse to not get better. It is not an option. I will make the sacrifices necessary to be the best. This attack on the self is necessary because if I don’t train every day with the intention of destroying the old me, then I’m missing something. This is the fire I feel, that I want you to feel. This is the fire, the hate, the motivation for improvement. HVIII Brand Goods is a lifestyle brand that is based on a very simple philosophy: Turn negativity into positive results. Everyone has doubts, everyone worries about just how much they can accomplish. Don't hide from those thoughts; let them drive you. Find adventure, chase strength, build something. Whatever you choose to do, put your whole self into it and enjoy yourself in the process. The process is everything. At HVIII Brand Goods, we make apparel and accessories with an emphasis on style and quality. Every item we create starts with a basic idea: Is this something we would want for ourselves? If the answer is 'yes' then we obsess over getting it just right so we can share it with you. Carrying the HVIII Brand Goods message on your body is a statement of support, and we take that seriously. Loyalty above all. You deserve our best, and we attack every day with the purpose of giving it to you. Listen To Episode 240 As Matt Vincent Uncovers: How he created the philosophy of HVIII Brand Goods: "The spirit of self-improvement through self-loathing." This renewal of reconnecting with others and really looking for a tribe through groups like CrossFit. The power of going outside of your own suffering and still be there for your team so you can win together. His morning routine being relaxed vs. getting fired up with exercise, movement, cold tub, and coffee. What he learned from the process he went through when his dad passed away from pancreatic cancer. What the term 'hate' means to him and why he finds it so motivating. How he stays authentic in his social media platforms, videos, and the HVIII brand. His past experience working in sales and what he took away from it. Levels of consciousness: How much he has grown since he worked in sales to beginning HVIII. What he's learned about himself, success, and hard work by completing tasks by himself compared to with his team. Why pain and trauma are not a competition and we're all dealing with our own issues at our own full capacity. How he balances all aspects of his health, business, and relationships. What he does when finds he's out of balance with work and personal relationships. The inner work he did before he met his wife and how they've both grown since then. How he defines himself and stays authentic to who he is. What the Highland Games is and what he loves the most about throwing and being an athlete. His experience with injuries and what he went through mentally during some of the toughest moments of his throwing career. Where he's planning for his company, HVIII Brand Goods, to go in the future. The power of saying 'no' to what you don't want to do and focusing on getting to do what you love. The most he's learned from his wife when it comes to strength training and mindset. Power Quotes From The Show "I'm not obligated to train; I get to train. You can't outsource progress. If you want to become stronger, more fit, and healthy, all of that takes time and you get to put the time into it."- Matt Vincent @matSOawesome on @WellnessForce Radio episode 240 wellnessforce.com/240 "No one owes you success; the universe doesn't care. If this is what you want, you do it but you do it for yourself and nobody else. Quit focusing on the mindset of, 'If I just get there, all of this will be okay,' because there is no 'there;' it's all just a journey and a process. So, learn to live in that because that's where we are now." - Matt Vincent "'At some point, we have to realize that pain and trauma are not a competition.' Everyone is dealing at 100% all the time for them. People are just doing the best they can with the tools they're given." - Matt Vincent quoting David Choe. "Knowing yourself is so important. You have to dive into the dark parts of yourself. Pretending they don't exist doesn't make them not exist. If you've got darkness, that's okay. You don't get to experience the good without the bad." - Matt Vincent "I don't want me to care more about your success than you do. That can't work; you have to care and be the one to instill it in you that this is the standard, this is the line that we hold, and this is non-negotiable. You have to hate yourself enough to do the work. Good enough isn't good enough today. Perform when it counts and like anything else, that's a knife that can be sharpened." - Matt Vincent " 'Comparison is the thief of joy.' Own your work and do it for you. If you're doing it for someone else, that's not sustainable either." - Matt Vincent Links From Today's Show Matt Vincent Instagram Twitter YouTube HVIII Brand Goods Facebook Twitter Instagram UMSO Podcast Training Lab by Matt Vincent Spartan Race World Championships Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook - Gary Vaynerchuk Jordan Peterson Alan Watts Carl Jung Brené Brown Joe Rogan Tony Robbins Dana Linn Bailey Kelly Starrett Mark Bell WFR 086 Mark Divine WFR 196 Aubrey Marcus About Matt Vincent Matt Vincent is a traveling strength athlete, two-time Highland Games World Champion, and founder of HVIII Brand Goods.

The NativePath is a journey; it's an invitation to go down a journey to reclaim your health and remember who you really are. As a species and an individual, we've forgotten who we are because we've been brought into this world where we've been given a name and a label. We're taught who we are as far as race, political ideology, or religion and we get caught up in those things. We also might get caught up in our diseases and think that's who we are. Eventually, all of this starts to manifest itself as a little voice inside our heads. So at NativePath, we're trying to remove all of that and give people a way out so they can realize that they're the creator of their life. - Dr. Chad Walding JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE What is the key to staying curious about your own mental, physical, and spiritual wellness?

Through this experience, we bring products and services that provide the framework for humans to return to their native health and natural way of being. Listen To Episode 211 As Dr. Chad Walding Uncovers: The sitting cycle we've become so accustomed to which actually impacts us on a deep, spiritual level. His childhood and how the high levels of emotional anger in his home environment affected both him and his brother. The adolescent and young adult depression he faced growing up. Generational depression and anxiety we could be experiencing without realizing it. His own struggles with self-love and feeling worthy. The different levels of depression and anxiety that can vary from person to person. Our search for life fulfillment and how he is able to fill that need through giving and learning. What he and the NativePath and Lexicon Health brands want to teach people about wellness. His own path towards coming aware of who he truly is despite all the labels, media, and his own ego telling him otherwise. How teaching about health and wellness throughout his community helped him realize his true purpose and shifted his paradigm. His regular practices including a daily intention of what he wants to accomplish in 90 days. Why we're all empaths no matter if we're actually paying attention to it or not. His relationship with his wife and how he knew he would marry her the moment he met her. The journey he and his wife went through when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. His future plans as he continues to help people become more aware of how they can focus on their own health. Why you have to meet people on their level in order to sell them what they want and give them what they need. The importance of community when helping people to focus on changing their life. What he's the most excited about for the future of health and wellness. Where our self-doubt comes from that is holding us back from living a healthy life. How we can be more intentional about watching TV, being on social media, and getting tasks done. Power Quotes From The Show "It's okay to have a difficult time trusting the process. It's okay if you're feeling those feelings and you're in a bad place. Just keep going strong and looking at yourself. Move forward and do the best you can. That's all you can do." - @PaleoSecret http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "We're on a mission to help the individual cultivate happiness, health, and kindness within themselves as well as spread those ideas to their community. We want to let people know that they were brought up in a world with a lot of toxicity - their food, the way they've been moving, and the thoughts they've been thinking have all been inherited but that's not who they are; they're not a victim and we're going to show them a way out. It's almost like we were born into a room with toxic perfume. The more time we spend in that room, the sooner we become desensitized to its toxicity. We're trying to get people out of that room to help them discover who they really are." - Dr. Chad Walding "As someone who was working in the conventional healthcare system, I felt like I had no purpose. However, what that experience was doing was just showing me what's actually happening in healthcare and building up a desire to change something about it. That experience was exactly what I needed and it was my purpose even though I didn't know it was my purpose. Back then I didn't understand why I was in that situation but now I do." - Dr. Chad Walding "I always try to live in a state of wonder. I literally wake up every day and say, 'May I be in a state of wonder?' I always wonder about other people and how they're doing, how things might be occurring to them, or even how the universe works. Our curiosity is quite infinite but that's what makes it fun. Isn't learning so much fun when we're in that state of wonder?" - Dr. Chad Walding Links From Today's Show Dr. Chad Walding Facebook NativePath Facebook Twitter Instagram Lexicon Health Paleo Secret Facebook Instagram YouTube Sitting Solution Facebook YouTube The Anti-Inflammatory Diet Guide by Dr. Chad Walding and Dr. Brenda Walding Chad Walding - How to Stand Up Straight in a World That Sits Pain relief exercises - Crucifix Stretch & Womb Squat Amy Cuddy’s TED talk - Your body language may shape who you are The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle David Deida Landmark Forum ManKind Project Rising Strong by Brené Brown Byron Katie WFR 113 Nic Bartolotto WFR 183 Dr. Kyra Bobinet About Dr. Chad Walding Chad Walding is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, holistic health, and fitness coach, lifetime athlete, and speaker.

Metal detoxification and addressing the body bioenergetically is really important. I actually haven't seen anything that works as well as bioenergetics as far as addressing health issues. Heavy metals and chemicals are definitely a huge threat to our health on so many levels. - Wendy Myers JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE What are the various metal detoxing strategies for adults, athletes, and children? In Wellness Force Radio episode 205, Founder of Myers Detox, Host of both the Live to 110 and Supercharged Podcasts as well as NES Health Practitioner, Wendy Myers, uncovers the proper order for metal detoxification, the differences between light and heavy metal detoxing, and whether or not fluoride is actually good for us. Learn all about the various, simple approaches you can take to detox, heal, and avoid metal toxins every day of your life. "Energy medicine is the future. The energy that we put out into the world comes back to us. My clients have experienced profound, amazing changes from metal detoxes so it's a privilege to be able to offer that to people." - @MyersDetox http://bit.ly/wfpodcast Are heavy metals making you sick? Take Wendy Myers' Metals Quiz to find out! Heavy metal toxicity is often behind digestive issues, systemic infections, stubborn weight gain, brain fog, autoimmune disease, and chronic health conditions. Have you been to many health professionals and not been helped? Are your symptoms robbing you of your joy (and your life)? You’re not crazy. The simple reality for ALL of us is that we have been accumulating metals and chemicals for our entire lives. No matter how healthy you eat or take care of yourself, you CANNOT achieve true health unless you purge heavy metals and environmental chemicals from your body and replenish mineral deficiencies. Heavy Metal Detoxification is the only way to truly reverse disease, heal the body and meet your health goals. Today, a healthy diet and lifestyle alone are not enough to achieve optimal health given the levels of toxins in the environment and our bodies. Listen To Episode 205 As Wendy Myers Uncovers: Myths and mistakes people make about detoxication including juice cleanses. The various health discussions she would have with her father while he was alive and how that inspired her to live a life full of wellness. How big pharmaceutical companies aren't just harming the health of patients with prescribed medication but also censoring what holistic health practitioners and natural medicine experts are sharing online. What being an NES Health Practitioner is all about and how their bioenergetic program can help those who need to detox. Her three-step process to help people start thinking about doing a detox called the Mitochondria Detox that includes a binder, bioenergetic supplement, and an activated silica. How to detox through nutrition and which foods she recommends eating including those with tons of fiber. Why a juice fast isn't the best choice for a detox because there isn't any fiber included in the nutrition. If the liver naturally helps us detox, do we really need to go through a detoxification process? Why coffee enemas are such a great way of keeping the liver healthy. Whether or not it's actually necessary to test yourself to see if you need to detox. The order of steps you should follow for proper detoxification. How detoxification works for children compared to adults. The fact that toxic metals are everywhere - in air, food, water, and even beauty products like deodorant. Simple approaches you can take to detox and avoid metal toxins every day. Photobiomodulation - Can infrared lights help us detox as well? What other benefits do they have? Types of detoxing protocols athletes can follow. The differences between light and heavy metal detoxing The real truth about fluoride and whether or not it's actually good for us. Ongoing misconceptions that simply aren't true about detoxing from heavy metals. The fact that we just cannot escape metal toxins even if we live outside of a largely populated city. Power Quotes From The Show "Since I started bioenergetics, I have a lot more awareness around energy and how other people's energy affects us. It's about how you utilize your energy, will, thoughts, and attitude for your life, decisions, and happiness." - @MyersDetox http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "There's only so much you can do to reduce the number of metal toxins but there are some obvious things you can do like not eating sushi every day and drinking tap water, but no matter how hard you try, you can't protect yourself from everything. Believe me, I've tried. So, that's why you should have a simple, sensible lifelong detoxification strategy whether it's taking a supplement, a coffee enema, or infrared sauna; just focus on doing something small every single day to facilitate and help your body remove these toxins." - Wendy Myers "Detoxification takes energy so that's a price that a lot of athletes don't want to pay while they're trying to train or competitions. So, just taking binders or doing a mitochondria detox is a really great way to detox and facilitate your body's ability to detox. When an athlete has some downtime, that's when they can focus on doing a more hardcore, intense detoxification protocol." - Wendy Myers "We don't want fluoride in our body at all. You need trace amounts of it but the fluoride that's in toothpaste is actually an industrial waste product and it's something that we do not need. The fluoride that's in our drinking water was a very, very bad idea because it's known to cause cancer, interfere with thyroid function, reduce the number of minerals in our bones, and decrease our ability to produce melatonin. So, fluoridation is very toxic to our body and I recommend that everyone removes all fluoridated based products from their body as well as drinking and shower water." - Wendy Myers Links From Today's Show Wendy Myers Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn YouTube The Metals Quiz Live to 110 Podcast #232 Physical & Emotional Intelligence for the Modern World with Josh Trent Supercharged Podcast The Myers Detox Store Myers Detox Protocol NES Health Bioenergetics Harry Massey and NES Health Sterling Hill NES Health Testimonial Mike Adams and Natural News The Body Keeps The Score by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk WFR 121 Dr. David Minkoff WFR 149 Johnny Blackburn WFR 184 Scott Nelson About Wendy Myers Wendy Myers, FDN-P, NC, CHHC is an expert in detoxification, heavy metals, and minerals, and host of The Medicinal Supplements Summit and Heavy Metals Summit.

An authentic expression of oneself is right at the center of what mastery looks like and feels like. That is available to all of us, but it requires an inward journey. There's a real journey that's required to get to the core insights of what makes you 'you.' Fulfillment, peace, happiness, and high performance all happen in the present moment. - Dr. Michael Gervais JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE Is there a common thread connecting how the greatest performers in the world use their minds to pursue the boundaries of human potential?

By the end of this episode, you'll be equipped with the tools to train the internal noise, self-dialogue, and meaning-making machine that is your mind.

Listen To Episode 201 As Dr. Michael Gervais Uncovers: What you can do to better handle ongoing distractions in your life. Why multitasking doesn't exist and its true name is, 'cognitive shifting.' What it actually means to say, "I'm busy," today compared to in the past. The old wealth of material possessions compared to the new wealth of being able to have a quality life experience. The importance of people sharing their own experiences of self-discovery and how they've connected the mind, body, and soul. How the human body is able to maintain so much stress for so long and how it can let go of those negative emotions. The process of creating adaptations by utilizing the right amount of stress.

How to overcome your fears through systematic desensitization. What you can do to get started on your own spiritual path to create more space for yourself. Mindset training and how to go about it in your own terms. Power Quotes From The Show “The work is not to avoid stress. The work is to ask and understand, ‘How do I stop creating stress that is not needed and how do I facilitate the right amount of stress so that I can create adaptations?’ “-@michaelgervais of @CompetetoCreate http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "The new currency is attention. Today we are aware that multitasking doesn't exist and it's actually called 'cognitive shifting.' When we shift cognitively from one thought or activity to another, there's cost to it. There's a cost of time and a cost of depth. So, multitasking is a symptom of wanting to do a lot in life. Being busy used to be a badge of honor but it's no longer like that. When we say we're busy, it doesn't mean that we're in high demand and we're doing good work; it means that we're not organizing our life purpose well enough and we haven't figured out how to have dignity and regard for the way we spend our time as far as quality and quantity." - Dr. Michael Gervais "The old wealth was having a big car, nice watch, and getting a lot of attention, but the new wealth today is not that. The new wealth is the output of the quality of the inner experience. Today, people are deeply committed to exploring the nuances of their talents." - Dr. Michael Gervais "The idea is not to escape stress but to understand how we create it and how we work with it. No one is going to get good at anything without a little stress. Stress is really about change and eventual adaptation. So, what we're really looking for is the ability to trust ourselves in the present moment so that we can be present enough to embrace the unpredictable, unfolding unknown which is always right now. That's not easy to do; especially when we have this internal noise, self-dialogue, and meaning-making machine of our mind that's often times undisciplined because it's untrained." - Dr. Michael Gervais "If the new currency is attention, there is no 'extra.' Attention is what allows us to come back to the present moment and we need the mental skills to be able to do that. Therefore, there is no time for anything 'extra' because there's always an option to do more and I think many of us have come to be based this way based on the Industrial Revolution and we have this intense pride of work. This idea that we always have to be working hard around the clock has migrated across several generations. We've come to believe that we need to do more in order to be more. We can do all we want, but it will never provide what it feels like to be 'you.'

If you're feeling a certain way, you're going to know to a certain degree what state you're in. If you're feeling sad, apathetic, resigned, or depressed, these are all indicators that you're in some form of resistance. Realizing that is actually a gift because how else are you going to know what your relationship is with reality? Conversely, if you're feeling joy, freedom, or a sense of peace or love in your relationship, these are references to the soul or true essence of who you are. That is your guiding force. - Peter Crone JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE How can daily emotional hygiene practices help you stop the negative emotions, thoughts, and anxieties you might be hoarding in your mind? In Wellness Force Radio episode 199, leader in human potential and performance, Founder of Be Alive, and Mind Coach for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Peter Crone, reveals his own practice for emotional hygiene, what the 6 Stages of Disease are, and why living with a 'good vibes only' attitude all the time is impossible. Discover how inner child work can help you to pause and reflect in order to create a better understanding of your suffering and heal the relationship with your ego. "A failure is an event; not a person. It's just something that happens. The way that we articulate events is usually to our detriment and it's where the ego reinforces its sense of inadequacy. Failure is just something we did or didn't do." - Peter Crone http://bit.ly/wfpodcast Whether we realize it or not - we exist within mental constructs. Albeit invisible, they dictate our thoughts, feelings, actions, and consequently results. All psychological problems, suffering, and unfulfilled desires are the byproduct of these invisible mental constraints. To create an extraordinary life, we have to both consciously reveal the current limiting frameworks of our perceived reality as well as create new contexts for an expanded existence. In order to realize our potential, it’s necessary to step outside of the world as we know it, which naturally brings with the new possibilities of an entirely new experience of oneself and life. Peter’s work breaks through these constraints and takes a mindset of surviving to one of thriving. Peter has worked with corporations, individuals, and athletes by offering them assistance as a Mind Coach in: 1-on-1 Coaching Intimate Conversations Digital Programs Corporate Speaking & Workshops Listen To Episode 199 As Peter Crone Uncovers: How he helps top performers be able to heal and trust others. His inspiration to ask others, "Is that true? Is the thought that you're thinking actually true?" How you can embrace your humanity and the capabilities you were born with. The currency of attention and how he decides what he needs to focus on. Issues with social media and 'liking' something and getting attention from others. How his parents' deaths lead him to isolation and dealing with the experience of physical separation. His own practice for emotional hygiene each day and his advice for others. Why yoga isn't about the physical aspect but rather the focus of self-realization. The 6 stages of disease and how he avoids it through emotional hygiene. How humans can be hoarders in their minds and what you can do to end it. Mental hoarding tendencies in professional players and how he helps them to deal with it. His experience working with the professional Arizona Diamondbacks baseball team. The relationship that he has with his own ego and his observations of professional athletes dealing with their egos. Inner child work practices that you can use in order to pause, reflect, and see the reality of your suffering. Why we suffer when we don't want things that are the way they are. How the everyday athlete can use emotional hygiene tools to improve their performance and life. Why living by only happiness or 'good vibes only' is impossible unless we do the actual inner work and we can choose our emotional state. What he's most excited about with working with professional baseball players. How he defines 'happiness' and why he prefers the word, 'joy.' His views on social media and why he isn't involved in it yet. Power Quotes From The Show "We can either focus on where we're seeking attention or where we're putting our actual attention. I put my attention on what I'm creating. I just don't think about what people think of me. I just know what I do and the difference I make." - Peter Crone http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "In terms of helping, I allow people to embrace their humanity. So, regardless of their abilities or talents, I help them to bridge the gap between this man-made, fabricated image that supersedes any human capacity and their humanity. Many people become so blown up by their ego that their downfall is them trying to sustain it which is just impossible." - Peter Crone "If you look at social media and the actual mechanism of 'liking' something, it's really saying, 'like me.' Talk about attention seeking! To me, that is a facet and an extension of the egoic part of a human being which by design is not liked, is not loved, and is not enough. So, here is this external validation which will never ever actually overcome the belief that 'I'm not that.' This is the catch; this is the addiction that we can never get enough of something that almost works. It doesn't matter if you have a million likes; you want to get 1.5 million likes because you're being driven by something that is inherently not something." - Peter Crone "The ego doesn't want to be healed; it wants to be held. By its design, the ego is an entity that we human beings have and its foundation is inadequacy, scarcity, and insecurity. These are just the qualities of the ego and if we can accept that, then we can be the bigger being and be aware of its presence in order to hold space for it. The ego is just like a child that needs to be held and hugged when it becomes upset. When the human adult has their woes and their sadness, they tend to judge and resist. That's where a lot of the suffering comes from." - Peter Crone "Suffering is resistance and resistance is suffering. When we don't want things that are the way they are, we're going to suffer. I have this intimate relationship with reality; I allow things to be what they are and simultaneously I consider myself the master of my own destiny. Not in an egotistical control way, but I am doing the best I can to generate, create, and design the life that I choose. It doesn't always work out but there's harmony in that." - Peter Crone "Even though it looked like my friend was experiencing sadness when she found out that her grandfather had passed away, to me, it was a reflection of love. That to me is freedom versus happiness on a positive scale. There's something beautiful about grief or missing somebody you love. That to me is the full gambit of human experience and that's joy. I'm not resisting any of my feelings; I'm allowing allow of my feelings to be shared." - Peter Crone Links From Today's Show Peter Crone YouTube Be Alive Workshops and Speaking Topics with Peter Crone Banyan Botanicals Byron Katie Heal Documentary Official Trailer Peter Crone on Living an Inspired Life 'Chief Inspirer' Peter Crone works his magic on Jacobson, Howell MLB Interview: JD Martinez and Mind Coach Peter Crone Mental approach raises Goldschmidt's game Paul Goldschmidt Doesn't Care If You Don't Know Who He Is Guinea Pig of Love: The Mind Architect Experiment Master Golf's Mental Game About Peter Crone Peter Crone is a thought leader in human potential and performance as well as the founder of Be Alive.

The desire to tune into your body comes from wanting to feel good and discover what allows you to actually vibrate with this high frequency and become something greater than yourself. An amazing way to do that is through art. When I'm editing, filming, or taking photos, I am not operating from my ego; I'm allowing the light to pass through me and the same can happen to others when they're singing, writing, listening, or doing anything else creative. When you're singing, you're not thinking about singing; it's just flowing through you and your body is the tool that gets to be sung from. - Jordan Taylor Wright JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE How can being creative allow you to self-reflect, meditate, and feel your best every single day?

Why your life is like watching a movie: you get to witness and be present with what is happening and see the beauty that's actually going on in the world.

What you can do to stay true to yourself and your intentions in order to live a life full of wellness. Power Quotes From The Show [tweetthis]"We are always changing and we are always this light that continues to move. Time doesn't exist; it's our perception of what's happening. Allow yourself to sit with the fact that we are nothing and everything at the same time." - @TaylorCutFilms http://bit.ly/wfpodcast[/tweetthis] "I included this quote by Stephen Hawking, 'If you're lucky enough to find love, remember it is rare and don't throw it away,' in my video because 'love' in this case isn't about finding love in another person. Simply loving someone will never fill you because we are everything and nothing at the same time. Once you're able to find a feeling of love whether that's through consciousness, the state of awareness, or meditation, hold onto that feeling and that will be your compass within your life. Every decision you make is based on that feeling of love." - Jordan Taylor Wright "There is a beauty that exists in pain because pain is fear and fear is just the ego's notion of not existing. Fear doesn't exist; fear comes from death and death doesn't exist; death is light. Light never dissipates; it travels forever and becoming enlightened means that you are in this state of knowing that you are light and that continues forever." - Jordan Taylor Wright "If you're trying to find yourself, you're going to be searching forever because there's nothing to 'find.' You don't have to already go searching for yourself because it's already there as stillness. When you allow yourself to be still, you're not reaching outward to control or reach for something. All of those are outward emotions, but being still is about tuning inward, being at the very base of who you are, and being okay with vulnerability." - Jordan Taylor Wright "Notice when you are feeling emotions and if you aren't able to rid yourself of the thoughts by witnessing and labeling them, be open to writing about what is happening. Within two to three minutes of writing what you're thinking, you're going to pause and forget why you were even feeling those emotions or thinking those thoughts in the first place. Be open to expressing your emotions as well; don't let them bubble up like a volcano. There's no weakness in crying; there is strength in expressing yourself." - Jordan Taylor Wright "Our wellness is our intention; we are our intention. So, remove that 'I' from 'Intention' and allow your intention to express and feel love. Know what your intention is when you're speaking and be true to what you're saying. Allow your intention to be truthful. If you are intending for your life to be well, happy, and full of love, then that's what your existence will be and that's what other's existence will be as well." - Jordan Taylor Wright Links From Today's Show Jordan Taylor Wright Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Taylor Cut Films Spotlight Interview With Filmmaker & Instagrammer, Jordan Taylor Wright of Taylor Cut Films The Art of Not Thinking With Jordan Taylor Wright We Are Infinite The Fable of the Awakened Child The Body Keeps the Score by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk The Present Process by Michael Brown Elon Musk: We're Probably Living in a Video Game Will AI Become Self-Aware?

More people are now changing their diet, exercising more, or getting into yoga and meditation. I truly see that as a growing trend." - Lisa Dougherty of @MedFitNet http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "I always felt like there was something that I was supposed to do with my life and I really do think it's my ability to bring people together. While my dad was ill, he was still my mentor and very supportive. There were many times when I wanted to give up because everything was so overwhelming, but he kept telling me, "You can't give up," and that mantra became a part of me." - Lisa Dougherty "I want to leave something behind that's greater than me. The MedFit Network is a very important project for me because I feel like I'm positioning myself to really influence and change a lot of people's lives in a positive way and improve their quality of life. We really need as much help as we can get because we're more obese and sicker than ever as a population right now." - Lisa Dougherty "The Internet and trying to figure out healthcare can be overwhelming. I really wanted to make MedFit Network be the go-to place for people. We have doctors who helped create this and we even have an entire medical advisory board who have come together to create this project. So, this is a trusted website and that's why we have 30 different medical and health organizations that all recommend MFN to people who need to get help." - Lisa Dougherty "Some people are becoming caregivers and they want to try to get in better shape and health to be able to take care of a parent. There are also older people who are being motivated to make changes in their life to spend better quality time with their grandkids. Then, we have the circle of aging people who want to retire, but they can't so they have to work longer and they're looking at trying to get healthier so they can do their job for more years. So, there are several different motivational factors that are pushing people out there to maybe do something that they might not have otherwise done. More people are now motivated to change their diet, do more exercise, or get into breathwork and meditation.

The example she's putting out for the world of volleyball right now. Differences between indoor and outdoor volleyball and why she chose outdoor volleyball.

How she sets up her mindset whenever she experiences an injury. Why she's so vocal about her love of video games. What it means to be fearlessly authentic despite what other people believe. The example she's setting for teenagers, young adults, and future generations. How she remains true and centered in her beliefs around social media.

How she gets over bad habits and picks up on new skills. How parents can instill this passion in sports and athletics in their children's interests. How she uses gaming as a way to recover, decompress, and recharge. Power Quotes From The Show "I fell in love with outdoor beach volleyball because it's just you and one other person on the court. The chemistry that goes into a partnership is so important. It's so vital to know that other person both on and off the court." - @kellyclaes3 http://bit.ly/wfpodcast "Any type of a rotational athlete that's unilateral - a pitcher, quarterback, or volleyball player, there are inherent dangers to only playing with one side of your body. Whether right handed or left handed, we use one side of the body differently than the other. So, I encourage all my athletes to be ambidextrous and use both sides of their body because the body will become more balanced that way." - Dr. Tim Brown "My love of video games is what makes me 'me' and I think everybody's interests are different and whatever you love, you speak more passionately about, you do better at it, and those are the things that you should advocate for and do. Don't try to be anybody else. If you see somebody else being successful in a field, but it's not your passion, then don't try to copy them just because they're doing it. Do what you love." - Kelly Claes "It's just a matter of taking the imbalances that volleyball creates and that life has created in Kelly and testing her body through movement methods that allow me to understand what's been overused and overstretched versus what's been underused and undertoned. In the areas that are underused and undertoned, I create length and circulation to allow Kelly and others like her to move towards that symmetry that we never, ever reach." - Dr. Tim Brown "Being fearlessly authentic means becoming comfortable with yourself. It is recognizing that you are unique and your path is unique. Most people don't want to walk down the same path that others have walked before so they choose to be bold and take a different approach to things and that's what we need to celebrate with future generations. That's what's going to help us grow as a community." - Dr. Tim Brown "It didn't really click with me until I was a Junior at the university that there were a lot more factors to wellness. I would wear the Intelliskin a lot to study and to get my posture in check, but I didn't really think about food as a huge factor or how sleep and recovery can greatly affect your performance. There are so many little nuances to wellness and I began to integrate that focus into my life." - Kelly Claes Links From Today's Show Kelly Claes Facebook Twitter Instagram Dr. Tim Brown Facebook LinkedIn Intelliskin Facebook Twitter Instagram IntelliSkin & Wellness Force Partnership USC Women's Beach Volleyball - Kelly Claes Team USA - Kelly Claes SANDCAST No. 3: It’s finally (finally) video-game season for Kelly Claes Sara Hughes & Kelly Claes: Set to Become The Next Superstars of Beach Volleyball Stand Up Tall: IntelliSkin Posture Apparel Put to the Test Why Intelliskin?

Before you come to Rythmia, the real work is what you did before. Living your life upset and sad about not finding the right partner, getting out of a financial loop, or not being able to find peace with your family; that's the hard work. Going from one job to the next and experiencing the fact that the jobs you love don't pay, and you don't love the jobs that do pay- that's hard. Then, to have gone through all of that and in one night be able to see it shift so much that you can look back and see all the joy in everything you've been through, that's what changes you at your deepest core.

I was feeling so elated that I told the moon I had a special request. I explained that this life had been so full of pain for me that I didn't think I could do it all again. So I asked her if in my next life she could make sure that I found the plant medicine as soon as possible. Her reply floored me. She typed, 'Gerry, that's a request for next time, but it's the same one you used last time.'" Plant medicine? The moon typing? It probably seems incomprehensible. Gerard Armond Powell was a rags-to-riches success story―a member of the 1 percent―but also an extremely unhappy person with multiple addictions. On a fast track to destroying every relationship that ever mattered to him and considering suicide, he was looking for a miracle, a way out. He found it in the form of plant medicine and a shaman who introduced him to the truth of his life and laid the groundwork for a psycho-spiritual journey that would lead him to reconnect with his soul, heal his addictions, and, finally, achieve a lasting sense of peace and happiness. This experience changed Powell and convinced him to share the universal truths he learned with as many people as he could, which he does at the acclaimed Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Costa Rica, and now with readers in Sh*t the Moon Said. This mesmerizing story gives readers a blueprint to chart their own course to happiness. The first step is to learn who they really are and the possibilities of what they can still become. Second, they have to achieve a reconnection with their souls. And third, they must heal their hearts. Sh*t the Moon Said provides us with an irreverent way of highlighting our shared unconscious wisdom and its life-changing potential. Powell's candid tale and the unlikely journey will help inspire readers to know themselves better and to find the path to their own greatest redemption. Listen To Episode 185 As Gerry Powell Uncovers: What his beliefs were about life for the first three decades of his life. The moment he decided to turn his life around and how he now feels more peaceful and happier than ever before. Why he has taken part in over 209 plant ceremonies at Rythmia. What most people get wrong about plant ceremonies and what myths exist about this ancient medicine. Why plant medicine ceremonies can cheapening because it forces you to come face to face with yourself. Why one night with the moon completely changed his life around and inspired him to write, Sh*t The Moon Said. The struggles he has faced in order to let go of what didn't serve him and the realities he's now learned about life. The amazing healings he has witnessed since starting Rythmia. Why all of our lies are what is weighing us down and keeping us from the truth. What moment of truth Josh experienced during his breathing workshop at Rythmia. The power of data and tracking information for repetitive analysis to really see if your wellness is improving. How to heal your soul by looking deep down at what's inside of your heart. Why we're designed to break and separate from our soul at a young age in order to grow into out best selves as adults. How Gerry was able to change his mindset around money to serve humanity. Why there is no such thing as "safety" or "danger" and how they're actually a construct of our mind. Power Quotes From The Show "There are people who have money or don't have money and it's not a big deal to them. Then there are people who have an allergy to money; they're convinced that they can't have money. What the plant medicine does is put money in a whole new perspective for you. The same goes for other factors such as love or happiness. This idea that we can't have money, love, or happiness is all a lie." - Gerry Powell "We're all in this together and that's what's so beautiful about life. The shortcut to happiness is truth. However, it's so hard for people to get to the truth because they don't want to hurt anybody and we're constantly protecting ourselves. Once you've discovered the truth, keeping your balancing sheet clean is easier and everything changes." - Gerry Powell "Your soul is always in your aura; it's just that you are one and you split from it. So, in order for your soul to come back, it has to know that you see who you've become. Once you see who you've become, you don't have to change yourself, you just have to see it. Change happens on its own." - Gerry Powell "Money has a completely different value to me now than it did back then. Money was something I had to have because it was my identity. Now it's something that I have to have in order to pay payroll. Now I need money in order to pay these people at Rythmia because they do this incredible work with such an open heart. In the grand scheme of life, I had to go through all that past bullshit with money so that this place could exist." - Gerry Powell Links From Today's Show Rythmia Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Gerry Powell Facebook LinkedIn Sh*t The Moon Said by Gerry Powell Mrs. Moon's Medicine The Reality of Truth AWAKEneurs Ayahuasca-Assisted Therapy for Addiction Setting Intentions for Plant Medicine The 5 Habits of Highly Spiritual People How Plant Medicines Change Lives Rythmia Life Advancement Costa Rica: (Plant Medicine Review) The Hungry Ghosts Inside Us Truthenomics Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) MAPS Pineapple Fund Dr. Cortney Warren at TEDxUNLV WFR 177 Dr. Cortney Warren About Gerry Powell Gerard A. Powell was the personification of the American Businessman: Rich, Powerful, and Unhappy. He opted to try anything available to hide from himself and his “perfect” life. Most of his existence he suffered from addiction and depression, incessantly trying to fill the hole deep within, with little or no success. Ultimately, after much trial and error, he found the key to true success and happiness. Today, he serves as a conscious entrepreneur, thought leader, philanthropist and public speaker on a mission to share the modalities and philosophies that transformed his life. And so, Gerry founded the Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Guanacaste, Costa Rica which is a medically licensed life transformation center that is focused on drug and alcohol addiction, general health and wellness and spiritual development. Their team of naturopathic healers, health specialists, and spiritual teachers are all working in tandem to create the most integrative programs in the world. Their goal is to continually provide the best healing practices anywhere for a complete mind, body, and spiritual renewal for each and every person. Their gift is the gift of being able to bring true healing to you, and offer you the setting and tools to do just that.

I want everyone to see themselves as designers of their own lives because that's truly what we're doing. We're co-creating this reality and we're all an active part of it. Essentially, there are two types of people: designers and those who are still struggling with the concept. Brain science is really how your brain works and why it does what it does whereas design thinking focuses more on the future. Design thinking is what we can become and what we can transform ourselves into. - Dr. Kyra Bobinet JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE Do you want to change in some way, shape or form, but you're too comfortable fitting a specific mold of other people's expectations? In Wellness Force Radio 183, CEO and Founder of engagedIN, Author of Well Designed Life, and teacher of health engagement at the Stanford School of Medicine, Dr. Kyra Bobinet, shares how we can all live a well-designed life. As you listen to this episode, you will learn all about how to become a designer of your own life, your unique connection between the heuristic link and self-image, and how you can set yourself up for a future self that will thank your past self. Learn how your current self can live up to the expectations of your future self and how to create a life you will love. Get Your Copy of Well Designed Life Click here to get your copy of Well Designed Life by Dr. Kyra Bobinet I know what I should do...I just don't know why I don't do it." This phrase captures a universal human experience--we can't always get ourselves to do what we know is best for us. In Well Designed Life, you will learn that the solution to this stumbling block resides in coupling two disciplines: brain science and design thinking. Brain and behavior sciences have exploded in recent years. This catalyzes new insights into why we do what we do--and how we can change. Meanwhile, major advances in consumer technology, service industries, and public health are rapidly changing how we live. This boom of innovation has been fueled by a creative approach to solving problems called design thinking. We are living in the age of design--and designers are the new rock stars. Dr. Kyra Bobinet brings together over 25 years of successfully designing interventions, products, and experiences that change lives--to empower you as the designer of your life. Dr. Bobinet has gathered her top ten key concepts from psychology, behavior, and neuroscience and shows you how to apply each of them to change your health, relationships, and well-being. Bobinet insists that the success or failure of changing our lives hinges on both understanding what's going on inside our head and applying the flexible mindset of a designer. You have a choice: design your life or let it design you! Infused with relatable narratives that are at once witty and gripping, professional and personal, Bobinet takes you on a journey through the origins of your self-image, motivations, decisions, and unconscious behaviors--leaving you with the keys to free yourself from your conditioning and lead a well-designed life. Listen To Episode 183 As Dr. Kyra Bobinet Uncovers: Her book, Well Designed Life, and the process she went through to write it. How she defines behavior change and how you can change your own behavior for the long-term. The difference between brain science and design thinking. The connection between the heuristic link and self-image plus their connection to behavior change. The difference between fast brain and slow brain; intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation; inspiration vs. motivation; and stable motivation vs. unstable motivation. How she was able to design her own life in order to step into her own for her family. Her unconscious stress and how her poor eating habits caused by the heuristic link affected her health. How she was able to apply design thinking to her life after facing various health concerns. Her advice for listeners to take the first steps towards redesigning their lives and how iteration actually helped her scenario. What the habenula is and how it functions as the record keeper of all your failures. What her narrative was in the past versus now in the present. How you can build the mindset of a designer and ignore the habenula. Why self-love is an excellent companion to your mindset and behavior. Your current self vs. your past self vs. your future self and how you can design your life around them accordingly. Why the A-Type personality and high performers have such a tight relationship between the past self and future self. Why the self-image of the future self is so important in moments of decision making. Why relapse should be recognized as a critical stage for behavior change and how you can face it. How suffering helps us either become more flexible or take on the role of the victim. How gaining emotional intelligence can truly strip you of your ego. What practical steps you can take after listening to this episode. Power Quotes From The Show "Our brains are super lazy and it wants to make everything a shortcut. So, the way you get ready in the morning is a heuristic. All those automatic, heuristic actions are meant to conserve energy so we can live our lives on autopilot for most things that we repeat every day. So, when you are exhausted or stressed, you're most likely going to use your fast brain and heuristics to get through decision-making moments. But the more you can think ahead and put the slow brain into action when scheduling your week, the more powerful your thinking is so that you don't have to make things up as you go through the week." - Dr. Kyra Bobinet "As a mother, I was unconsciously stressed so I would automatically go buy a chai latte every single day and I wouldn't burn it off because I was working on a laptop all the time. Having that warm, comforting drink of a tiny shot of caffeine with a huge amount of sugar really got me going in the morning and that was my treat to myself. But I wasn't doing any long-term thinking; this was my short-term reward. The brain is very good at short-term rewards and going through these dopamine cycles and it really kicked me into this addiction of chai lattes." - Dr. Kyra Bobinet "The previous part of me didn't know that I had to design my life. Back then, I knew what I should have done, but I didn't know why I wasn't doing it and I didn't have a how to do it. What I notice between people who can design their behavior and those who cannot is that the people who can don't have to spend a year in frustrating feedback looks and constantly feeling bad about themselves for not doing what they know they should do." - Dr. Kyra Bobinet "The habenula in our brain basically tracks our failures. If we fail at something, we won't want to try it again because the habenula down regulates our motivation to try it again. The only way to get around the habenula is to iterate and to think that the story that you tell yourself is 'I'm just figuring it out. That's my job.' Not to do it, but to figure out how to do it." - Dr. Kyra Bobinet "Your self-image is the filter of everything you do and don't do. We just don't always know in the moment which self-image is governing. Is it the self-image of myself as this fiery and healthy person or as an overweight kid? We're constantly in the midst and struggle of different self-images. In the end, it’s really the self-image of the future self that is going to matter when the time comes. - Dr. Kyra Bobinet Links From Today's Show Dr. Kyra Bobinet Facebook Twitter YouTube LinkedIn Change Training Center engagedIN Facebook Twitter Instagram Well Designed Life Course Well Designed Life by Dr. Kyra Bobinet Stanford School of Medicine Healing by Design: Kyra Bobinet, MD, MPH Mindfulness-based stress reduction Food Decision-Making: Effects of Weight Status and Age Habenula: Crossroad between the Basal Ganglia and the Limbic System Tao Te Ching Laurence Gonzales BJ Fogg WFR 048 Nir Eyal WFR 088 Dan Pardi About Dr. Kyra Bobinet When it comes to health engagement, Dr. Kyra Bobinet has 5 words of advice: be caring, authentic, and useful.

People begin to eat low-sugar or cut this and cut that out of their diets. Those things might be helpful, but they're not going to apply to everybody. What if I like sugar and some carbs? You can't fit everybody into the same mold. Instead, we should teach specific principles that come across different dietary strategies for people who are Vegan, Keto, or Low-Carb." - Brian St. Pierre "A lot of us have this fear of taking the first step. 'What if I do it and it doesn't work?' We want people to approach the fundamentals as small experiments. You're just playing with these factors to see what happens. If it doesn't work, you can go back to doing something else." - Brian St. Pierre "What worked for us in high school or college doesn't work for us anymore as full-grown adults.

Research has shown that NEAT can vary by up to 2,000 calories a day between people which is an enormous difference." - Brian St. Pierre "Your feelings and your emotions are not separate from your body. Your emotions impact your physical world and vice versa. They may be separate systems, but they're fully integrated with each other.

Change is difficult and terrifying in general. To make a huge, dramatic shift in your life is terrifying because what you do is so based on your identity and that's probably the hardest part about that experience. There's more to it than just quitting a job and starting something new; it's about answering the question, "Who am I now?" It's all about the identity and the most difficult fear to overcome is regret. - Dr. Cortney Warren JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE Doesn't it drive you crazy to not know why events, whether good or bad, happen in life? Well, here's the answer: just don't even think about it because we don't know why things happen and we never will. It's actually better for us if we just accept something and move on by focusing on our present reality. In Wellness Force Radio episode 177, Clinical Psychologist, Researcher, TEDx Talk Speaker, and Author of Lies We Tell Ourselves: The Psychology of Self-Deception, Dr. Cortney Warren will share why the only certainty in life is change, how to observe and accept yourself without judgement, and how you can develop the psychological strength to change your life despite feelings of fear. By the end of this episode, you will be able to uncover which of your thoughts are actually lies in order to end self-deception once and for all. When you are ready for change, you are ready to grow. Lies We Tell Ourselves: The Psychology of Self-Deception Get your copy of Lies We Tell Ourselves: The Psychology of Self-Deception by Dr. Cortney Warren. Humans are excellent liars. We don’t like to think of ourselves as capable of lying; it hurts us too much to admit. So we lie to ourselves about that, too. As a clinical psychologist, I am regularly confronted with the brutal truth that we all lie. I am not talking about deliberate, bold-faced lying. No, this type of dishonesty is far harder to detect and admit. It is the kind of lying that comes from not being psychologically strong enough to be honest with ourselves about who we are. And I believe that it is our biggest obstacle to living a fulfilling life. I wrote this book for anyone interested in becoming more honest. In it, I present a range of self-deceptive examples couched in psychological theory to help us explore ourselves. Although it is a relatively short book—indended to be read in about an hour—I hope that the content provokes deep thought. For only when we are honest about who we really are, do we have the opportunity to change. Listen To Episode 177 As Dr. Cortney Warren Uncovers: What the terms "honest liars" and self-deception mean to her as well as why it's vital that you don't let your emotions manifest within yourself. The choice that you have to make: Not change at all because you're afraid of what it will cost you or actually do something different. A healthy way that you can rebound from painful experiences and external tragedies. Why therapy is not only a tool but a gift that can help you with your struggles. How you can begin to better understand yourself by taking the time to look at your childhood. In her clinical experience - how men and women compare and differ when it comes to feeling emotions such as sadness or anger. Analyzing cultural messages and why standards about emotion aren't right at all when it comes to what's appropriate for the individual. Why she decided to leave her academic profession for a different career path. How people develop the psychological strength to change their lives even though it might be scary. Why it's so difficult to overcome regret. The importance of becoming self-aware and observing yourself without judgment in order to confront your thoughts and behaviors. Why writing down your personal observations of yourself can be so beneficial for your emotional wellness and to help you stop lying to yourself about who you are. Addictions to technology and how you can improve your relationship with your phone. How she uses yoga breathing and progressive muscle relaxation to help her patients. Designing your home and work environment to avoid any stimuli that will trigger a response. The power of systematic desensitization and how it helps improve cognitive behavior. How you can become more honest yourself now and forever by beginning to challenge the lies that you tell yourself every day. The lies that adolescents tell themselves about who they are and their appearance. How you can analyze and improve your binge eating habits. Her own revelation that she needed to let go of her addiction to perfection. Power Quotes From The Show "The biggest predictor of change is misery. Someone is more likely going to change when they can't stand living their life the way it is today. That's when people are ready to change their lives because what they're doing now is not fulfilling." - Dr. Cortney Warren "We need to stop asking why bad things happen. We don't even know why and you just can't know nor do you necessarily need to know. What you need to know is that this is your reality today. So, what are you going to do with it?" - Dr. Cortney Warren "Therapy is a gift. Therapy is indicative of you being brave and willing to look at yourself on a more deeper, internal level. That takes a tremendous amount of courage because it's much easier to go ahead and just avoid it." - Dr. Cortney Warren "Just allow yourself to pause. When you're in the midst of a strong, emotional experience, it is the worst time ever for you to make any big-time decisions. If you act out in the moment based on your emotions, you're denying yourself the opportunity to learn more about yourself." - Dr. Cortney Warren "Start to think of your life as a big experiment and you are the scientist. Say to yourself, "I'm going to try something different and I'm going to see what I learn about myself in the process." How does it feel to be without your phone for example? Are you fine or is it incredibly uncomfortable? See this as a self-awareness process without any negativity or judgment." - Dr. Cortney Warren Links From Today's Show Dr. Cortney Warren Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Google+ YouTube Choose Honesty Lies We Tell Ourselves: The Psychology of Self-Deception by Dr. Cortney Warren The Naked Truth Blog Dr. Cortney Warren in Psychology Today You Are An Excellent Liar Denial Documentary My Name is _____ and I'm a Recovering Liar I am NOT an Addict! The intertwined world of self-deception and addiction. Your Right to an Opinion Does Not Make Your Opinion Factual Minimizing Anxiety, Honestly Dr. Jordan B. Peterson David Deida WFR 055 Gay & Katie Hendricks About Dr. Cortney Warren As the child of two college professors, Dr. Cortney Warren was raised in an academic environment. In addition to attaining a formal education in the classroom, she traveled extensively, getting a “real-world” education. Before the age of twenty, Cortney had lived in Australia and Argentina and traveled throughout Central America, South America, Russia, Scandinavia, and Western Europe. Exposed to a diversity of cultures and lifestyles from an early age, she was intrigued by the ways cultural and environmental conditions affected the psychological well-being of individuals, groups, and even entire societies. Her interest in psychology and issues of cultural diversity took academic shape as an undergraduate at Macalester College in St. Paul, Minnesota. Under the exceptional mentorship of Drs. Jaine Strauss (Macalester College) and Nancy C. Raymond (University of Minnesota), Cortney developed a strong interest in the cultural components of eating disorders and undertook supporting research and clinical activities. Through her formal and informal learning experiences, Cortney saw the ways in which we lie to ourselves on a daily basis and the danger that it posed to our emotional well-being. Helping people understand themselves and see their own self-deception became a fundamental part of her clinical practice, research, teaching, and personal way of life.

The injury that left him bedridden for two months and how that experience changed his focus on life. His decision for leaving Miami Beach for Thailand this year. Why stress doesn't have to define who you are and what you do with your life. How you can figure out what approach to getting healthy is best for you and your unique lifestyle and needs. His own social anxiety and what daily habits or eating patterns worsened it for him to the point of insomnia. Why where you live and the people you're around have an incredible impact on your health How you can continue to lead a legendary life throughout your lifetime. What it means to leave a legacy behind and what he wants to be remembered for. How do you know whether or not you're on the right path in life? Why he wants to move abroad to help grow his online entrepreneurship business. Josh's practice of going on a date with himself by exploring his emotional inventory once a month. The importance of observing your emotions and understanding what's going on with yourself below the surface. Purpose of not seeing workouts as not a check out from reality, but a check in with yourself. The power of now and trusting that everything is going to be okay as far as feeling safe and secure. Power Quotes From The Show "My injury lead me to realize that I needed a huge change. I've been in this same environment for so long that I'm actually becoming more and more negative about where I live. I don't feel like I'm in the right place anymore and so I'm ready for a new challenge." - Ted Ryce "Sometimes our greatest fear can be our greatest teacher. In addition, it's only natural that we allow change to happen." - Josh Trent "When we're in our 40s, 50s, and beyond, HIIT training isn't the answer to curing stress nor is steady state cardio. If we're talking about just being happier and healthier, it's really about getting that movement throughout the day. It doesn't put a lot of stress on our joints like running or burpees and you really notice the difference." - Ted Ryce "The feeling of being alive is more important than just living. With "living," you're going to be safe and stay alive, but to really feel alive, that's going to produce anxiety, stress, and moments of overwhelm. I'd matter much live that way where there's uncertainty and I'm at least moving in the direction I want to go." - Jost Trent "Despite our beliefs, we're not in control. We're not these autonomous, free-willed human beings that we'd like to believe we are. There's constant pressure from our wiring to react in certain ways to different scenarios. We're fighting with ourselves all the time." - Ted Ryce Links From Today's Show: Ted Ryce Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube WFR 099 Ted Ryce: Eat, Sleep, And Move Your Way To Legendary Health WFR 049 Ted Ryce: Your Guide To Live A Legendary Life Legendary Life Podcast Sex, Stress, and Exercise – Are Your Hard Workouts Preventing You From Getting Results? 10 Ways to Cope With Stress and Overwhelm The Blue Zones by Dan Buettner Cubii Pro Under Desk Elliptical 12 Rules For Life by Jordan B.

Why you don't have to feel afraid to feel your emotions like anger. How your deeper anger can actually serve you and your goals. Power Quotes From The Show "I think it's great to pick a date for when you're going to do something new with your life. Dates can be a huge guiding star for you if there's some big or small goal you want to obtain. The date that you do pick is only as important and real as you make it. If you mean it, you'll commit to that date. If not, you'll let it pass and that's okay." - Mark Shapiro "When you get a flood of Facebook posts on your birthday, how many of those do you actually see? How many of them actually land and touch your heart? I'm guessing that you don't even notice the ones that simply say, "Happy Birthday," on them. A 15-second video goes against the norm; it's creative, personal and the results speak for themselves." - Mark Shapiro "What drove me at the beginning of my journey was for me to become the best human being that I could be, but only for me and my personal fulfillment and joy. Today, that's still a big part of the equation, but serving others is also incredibly important. Serving others is what brings me joy and makes me feel like I'm here for a reason." - Mark Shapiro "We are not all of our feelings. Perhaps we're feeling an emotion in the moment, but that doesn't need to define who we are. In reality, our feelings of anger and frustration are only temporary. It's okay to be angry from time to time; that's what makes you human." - Mark Shapiro "Before you post something on social media, make sure you're being authentic to yourself and you don't have any outside motives for sharing it. Before you click "enter," ask yourself: Who are you posting this for? Is it for you or is it to impress someone else?"- Mark Shapiro Links From Today's Show: Mark Shapiro Facebook Instagram Twitter LinkedIn YouTube Are You Being Real?

Let's stop storing food in plastic containers or drinking from plastic water bottles. Instead, let's convert to using glass. Start looking at the chemicals that you're putting on your skin such as lotions and perfumes. It's about examining your entire environment so that it's as clean as possible and you're not putting that stress on your body every day." - Colleen Flaherty "Pregnant women are able to push their limits safely and specifically to be more athletic. Because of the adaptations that their bodies are going through, they're able to hit their PRs and run longer distances. They can do this because they have more blood cells and plasma so that they can recover faster plus their lungs are more efficient and their hearts are stronger." - Colleen Flaherty "You have to be smart about working out while pregnant. You have to know yourself and your body before you become pregnant. That way, you can be aware of what you're able to physically do including how much you can lift and how far you can run. Collect all that data so that you can exercise according to it while pregnant." - Colleen Flaherty "Your body has so much more power while you're pregnant. So, if you can still push yourself and be comfortable with the exercises that you love to do, go for it!" - Colleen Flaherty "What is your purpose for spending hours at a gym or having a job?

Men can help the #MeToo cause by first listening to the women in their lives. In the case of my wife, she just wants to be heard. As men, we naturally want to fix things, but we need to remember to simply pause and just listen. Instead of going into a "fix it" mode, try to solve the issue together with your wife or partner. Solving is something you do together; fixing is what you do on your own. Ask her what you can do together to make things better. - Michael Neeley JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE In the light of #MeToo, female or male, what can you do to help the cause and be a leader of change? In Wellness Force Radio episode 173, Writer, Motivational Speaker, Personal Development Coach, Creator of the transformational program, The Art of Forgetting, and Podcast Host of both Consciously Speaking and the upcoming Buy This Not That Podcast, Michael Neeley will teach you the difference between mindset and consciousness, how to let go of false stories in your mind, and the steps we can take to look after one another. Get ready to discover your inner courage and be a positive force in this world. Learn More About The #MeToo Movement In 2006, Tarana Burke founded the #MeToo Movement to help survivors of sexual violence, particularly young women of color from low wealth communities, find pathways to healing. Using the idea of “empowerment through empathy,” the #MeToo Movement was ultimately created to ensure survivors know they're not alone in their journey. The #MeToo Movement has built a community of survivors from all walks of life. By bringing vital conversations about sexual violence into the mainstream, we're helping to de-stigmatize survivors by highlighting the breadth and impact sexual violence has on thousands of women, and we’re helping those who need it to find entry points to healing. Ultimately, with survivors at the forefront of this movement, we're aiding the fight to end sexual violence. We want to uplift radical community healing as a social justice issue and are committed to disrupting all systems that allow sexual violence to flourish.

What he's done to cultivate more courage in his life. His upcoming planned live event for 2018 - Your Authority Blueprint Live. Power Quotes From The Show "Sometimes our purpose is to simply be still, be patient, and find out what our next purpose is in life." - Josh Trent "Our inner turmoil leads us to think that we have to lie to other people; even our partners. However, when our consciousness kicks in, it helps us realize that the other person is an adult and they can handle the truth. In a loving way, we can tell someone the truth. Don't try to sugar coat, lie, or make something up just to appease someone because it won't serve them in the end anyway." - Michael Neeley "If your relationship isn't working, don't try to hang onto it. Be honest with yourself and be honest with each other. Then, move away from each other lovingly. Just because you're no longer in the relationship doesn't mean you have to stop loving them. You can love them in a different way and still be friends." - Michael Neeley "To master The Art of Forgetting, you have to ignore all these made up stories. You have to successfully remove the made up thoughts and ideas you've invented in your mind." - Michael Neeley "If everything is done from love, then you're on the right path." - Michael Neeley Links From Today's Show: The Art of Forgetting Michael Neeley Facebook Twitter Vimeo LinkedIn Consciously Speaking Podcast Facebook Twitter The #MeToo Movement Facebook Twitter Instagram Consciously Speaking Season 3, Episode 325: #MeToo - A Conversation from the Male Perspective The Art of Forgetting by Michael Neeley Your Authority Blueprint Live Conscious Divorce: Turning Pain Into Pleasure by Michael Neeley Chasing Our Thoughts Down The Rabbit Hole by Michael Neeley The Key To Creating A Limitless Life by Michael Neeley TEDxUNLV Honest Liars: The Psychology of Self-Deception Psychosis The Eightfold Path of Buddhism David Deida Alan Watts The Untethered Soul by Michael A.

What you can do now to start living a more productive life with Jeff's Cut the Nonsense method. Power Quotes From The Show "You have to achieve balance if you're going to have long-term ambition and productivity. It will not work forever if you just continue to push harder. It has to be an intentional shift in how you operate to make sure you're getting your work down and there is a break built in." - Jeff Sanders "It takes some time to get used to taking a break and not work when you love what you do. You have to have these intentional boundaries in place to make sure that your workplace can still operate when you're not there. That way, you can comfortably use your free time as your moment to replenish your energy and creativity. When someone doesn't take a break, that's when burnouts happen." - Jeff Sanders "There is a corollary between our work and our ability to set these healthy boundaries. This is so important because if we don't set these healthy boundaries and we pressure ourselves to work harder, the body will suffer. That's exactly what happened to me." - Josh Trent "I want to make sure that I'm eating and sleeping well along with working out every single week. I'm doing that because I see how it helps my productivity and improves my results. My work is better when I'm healthier.

Every possible thing that we do or could interact with is a distraction from the one thing that we're trying to get done.

Functional Soft Tissue is a concept to help evaluate, treat, and stabilize soft tissue injuries through several different pathways: provocation, motion, resistance, functional positions or activities and proprioception. All of these pathways are neurological bombardments of the central nervous system which lead to the ultimate Control-Alt-Delete and reset of all of those tissues to allow for proper neurological function. - Dr. Greg Doerr JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST 20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE Even with continuous use and the latest developments, taping still continues to get a bad rap about not being an effective form of healing the body's muscle tissues. However, there is, in fact, many beneficial uses of taping to help you move better and heal faster. In Wellness Force Radio 168, chiropractic, lecturer, owner of Bergen Chiropractic and Sports Rehabilitation Center, and developer of Functional Soft Tissue, FTMI and FAKTR, Dr. Greg Doerr uncovers the truth behind how taping helps as long as you follow the "if this, then that" methodology that was taught to him by Dr. Tim Brown. Tune in and learn the many benefits of taping for the human body including: Postural Correction Improvement of Instabilities Neuro Resetting Discover The Functional Soft Tissue Method Functional Soft Tissue is a resource to train clinicians to evaluate and treat motion. We offer an extensive video library with two HD video collections – Soft Tissue and Taping. Functional Soft Tissue featuring Functional and Kinetic Treatment with Rehab (FAKTR) with Gregory H. Doerr, DC, CCSP is a 14.5-hour hands-on seminar including an introduction to movement and kinetic chain evaluation in the treatment of soft tissue dysfunction, the use of FAKTR Concepts, and Rehabilitation for soft tissue remodeling. Functional Taping for Musculoskeletal Injuries (FTMI) with Gregory H. Doerr, DC, CCSP is a 12-hour hands-on course designed to demonstrate several different taping techniques to be used on a number of musculoskeletal injuries of the spine, upper extremity, and lower extremity. Dr. Doerr has been certified in kinesiotaping, spider tech, SPRT, and has developed many of his own signature taping styles. He has over 16 years of clinical taping experience. Listen To Episode 168 As Dr. Greg Doerr Uncovers: His decision to become a chiropractor and continue the family tradition. How his experience with sports medicine has helped him to become a better chiropractor. Why someone would tape in the first place and the importance of knowing what you're doing with taping. How kinesiology tape helps your body align by helping improve your movement and range of motion. Approaching Functional Soft Tissue and how tape plays a role with it. What he learned from his father about the art of healing and the emotional component to recovering from a physical injury. The difference between allopathic medicine and its approach to helping patients compared to other types of medicine like a holistic approach. How you can connect the soul to movement in order to heal. Why science is unclear about what kinesiology tape is and how it helps because of the lack of research available. How to use the "If then, then that" methodology to properly use taping for healing. The three application methodology for applying tape: neurological, postural structure, or anti-inflammatory focus. Tactile taping application and how it can help improve the postural structure and position. The main benefits of taping for the human body: postural correction, instabilities, and neuro resetting. Why good posture is vital for every single body part and good health. How long kinesiology tape lasts for and what to do if you plan on going for a trip. What to do if you notice any skin irritation from taping. How long it takes to teach someone proper movement and posture plus how to decide if taping is right for them. The starting steps to go down the road of healing your body. Power Quotes From The Show "A lot of people are taping, but actually don't even know what they're doing. First of all, you need to know whether or not taping is right for the situation by following different algorithms. The initial step is deciding whether or not you have an area that's dysfunctional." - Dr. Greg Doerr "I'm the hugest placebo on the planet. I'm upbeat, happy, and smiley. I have this constant high energy that would actually put a patient in a positive, emotional state. When someone can transpire that type of excitement, happiness, and energy to a patient, that patient will want to get better." - Dr. Greg Doerr "Since taping is a neurological stimulation, there's no such thing as sham taping. Whether you put the tape from top to bottom, across, or on a diagonal, you're still going to touch the same exact skin receptors. So, the significant change between somebody who's sham taped for somebody who's taped, it's not going to be large enough to make taping look like a relevant form of treatment. That's why we need better research on taping." - Dr. Greg Doerr "All of our injuries start with poor mechanical posture. When we talk about proper posture, everyone immediately thinks about the spine. However, every single body part needs good posture: the shoulder, the hip, the knee, foot, and ankle. All of these have their own neutral posture position and we can assist them with taping techniques." - Dr. Greg Doerr "We cannot eliminate stress from our lives, but we can have proper outlets for it. Television is not a proper outlet, but exercise and music are proper outlets. Ask yourself if you're finding ways to actually relieve your stress so that you can create some kind of balance within your own brain. That is our greatest challenge; trying to find some type of homeostasis within our mental well-being." - Dr. Greg Doerr Links From Today's Show: About FAKTR of Functional Soft Tissue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4s-Vez8QOjk Dr. Greg Doerr Twitter LinkedIn Functional Soft Tissue Facebook Twitter YouTube Bergen Chiropractic and Sports Rehabilitation Center Facebook FAKTR - Functional and Kinetic Treatment with Rehab FTMI - Scoliosis What Is The Graston Technique?

When we cannot love, accept, and fully embrace everything about ourselves, we're always going to find that one thing that sabotages us." - Heather Hemmer "Anytime you have an emotional charge and you reach for something - whether it's food, alcohol, or even shopping, it's important that you notice your habits. If you're doing something habitually like eating out of boredom or when you want a distraction, it shows that you have an addiction. Then, you have to go back and discover why you're eating like this in the first place." - Heather Hemmer "When you start to eat healthy, your body is going to do things that you're not comfortable with and you're going to feel physically ill. You'll be mentally frustrated and feel irritable. A lot of people find excuses for why a detox isn't working for them, but letting your body go through those symptoms will give you a lot of clarity about your health." - Heather Hemmer "You actually start to see yourself when you look in a mirror and you talk to yourself. That's when you're really reflecting on who you are and you can finally understand that you're the most important person in your entire life because you'll always have yourself. That thought process can really shift your perspective on life." - Heather Hemmer "Stress can be highly inflammatory and perhaps you're eating the best you can, but nothing else is shifting and you still have gut problems. Unless you look at all the other aspects of your life, you're going to miss something and you're not going to feel your best." - Heather Hemmer Links From Today's Show: Heather Hemmer Instagram The 30 Clean Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Pinterest Google+ The 30 Clean Coaches The 30 Clean vs. The Whole 30 The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz Oprah's SuperSoul Sunday Quest Nutrition WFR 150 Dr. Joe Anderson & Andrea Duchonovic of LEVL WFR 140 Chris Kresser WFR 131 Drew Manning WFR 129 Gretchen Rubin WFR 088 Dan Pardi WFR 072 David Zappasodi WFR 071 Melissa Hartwig About Heather Hemmer Heather Hemmer is the Co-Founder of The 30 Clean as well as a Certified Health & Life Coach, Fitness Trainer, and Motivational Speaker. Each and every day, she feels blessed by the good fortune to love what she does. However, it wasn't always easy for her. As a self-proclaimed sugar addict, she has a very good understanding of what it takes to make lifestyle changes. She has seen the bliss that accompanies using food as medicine and what a sugar-free diet will do for increased energy, hormonal balance and emotional stability. She understands that changing deeply rooted habits is not always easy and will look different for everyone. Through her own health journey, she knows that when you have a health-advocate and coach and are ready to commit, change is possible. She takes the journey to better health & fitness seriously, but also believes in having fun and never feeling deprived. Heather helps others to uncover the root of their problem and slowly implement solutions to create lasting change.

With an app for everything and more apps and wearables becoming available, shopping for a fit tech device can become a little overwhelming. This episode will help you become more conscientious about your tech purchases and what's really out there that's worth your investment. Attend Future CES Events! CES is the world's gathering place for all those who thrive on the business of consumer technologies. It has served as the proving ground for innovators and breakthrough technologies for 50 years — the global stage where next-generation innovations are introduced to the marketplace. Owned and produced by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), it attracts the world's business leaders and pioneering thinkers CES, formerly The International Consumer Electronics Show (International CES®), showcases more than 3,900 exhibiting companies, including manufacturers, developers and suppliers of consumer technology hardware, content, technology delivery systems and more; a conference program with more than 300 conference sessions and more than 170K attendees from 150 countries. And because it is owned and produced by the Consumer Technology Association (CTA)™ — the technology trade association representing the $292 billion U.S. consumer technology industry — it attracts the world’s business leaders and pioneering thinkers to a forum where the industry’s most relevant issues are addressed. Listen To Episode 163 As Justin Andrews & Josh Trent Uncover: Some of the technology products that have caught their eyes while at CES including what they're excited about the most. Why it's so easy to want to give in to an impulse purchase with 1-click buttons and even facial recognition on phones. What it was like for Justin to try the NuCalm Topical Calming Cream. The immense amount of different products at CES that were focused on improving sleep and tracking it for better wellness. Benefits of using Justin's Axon isometric training tool. Which body movements are best for strength training and staying in motion compared to what's not efficient. How to take tangible data and incorporate it into behavior change. Why we get so excited about new fitness technology, but then the stability and novelty wears off over time. What characteristics or features a piece of fitness technology would actually have to have in order to be a game changer and really benefit our lives. Sex tech: from robots to the idea of pheromone implanted chips. Fitness technology and business: marketing and promotions - how to tell which products are all about the hype and aren't actually beneficial to your wellness. Why wearable companies need to focus more and more on providing their customers with tangible results that will actually aide them with their health goals. How some apps and products can improve their service for customers to fully benefit them and help improve their wellness journey. Products that help improve emotional wellness and relieve stress. The benefits of red light therapy to give you a boost of energy and speed up the recovery process. What technology can do to help us become more conscience and how to avoid technology addiction. How your relationship with technology (good or bad) can be a direct reflection on your other relationships. Family and baby tech - smart home connections, baby monitors, and how technology is shaping home life and how we raise children. Power Quotes From The Show "On one side, we have technology that's making life easier. On the other side, we still have to remain conscience about our freewill and choice." - Josh Trent "Training the human body often gets overlooked and it's a stepping stone. People just aren't connected to their bodies like they should be. They want to go all out at the gym or try the latest trendy informational workout just because so-and-so said they had great results. A fit tech device isn't going to give you overnight results. You can use it to aide you in your mission, but it's still your own wellness journey." - Justin Andrews "Wearable devices give us so much great information, but sometimes it can be too much and it can be a distraction from our health goals. Just because you use a wearable, is it really going to make you change your life? As Dani Pardi has said, "Knowing is not the same thing as doing." Actually, if you know and you don't do, it's the same as not knowing." - Josh Trent "The data from our wearbles is like a check-in mirror. It forces us to see how we're showing up and that's where the real change occurs. If you want a real life change, just checking in with what you did yesterday to know how you can improve today can be enough." - Josh Trent "You can measure sleep, but what are all the other variables that are contributing to it like stress? Maybe on paper your sleep looks good, but you have to consider all these other factors. Once we look at all of that, we can create the best plan to move forward." - Justin Andrews Links From Today's Show: Consumer Technology Association Show (CES) Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Justin Andrews Facebook Instagram Linkedin Axon Mind Pump Media WFR 124 Justin Andrews & Yaron Hadad WFR 128 Mind Pump 2018 FitnessTech Summit NuCalm SleepScore Max Yaron Hadad The Sleep Doctor's Diet Plan by Dr. Michael Breus ResMed Fitbit Healbe GoBe2 Joove Red Light Therapy Halo Sport Bigger Leaner Stronger by Mike Matthews WFR 162 Dr. Jordan Shallow & Dr. Jordan Jiunta WFR 160 Petteri Lahtela of Oura Ring WFR 159 Dr. Heidi Forbes Öste WFR 150 Dr. Joe Anderson & Andrea Duchonovic of LEVL WFR 140 Chris Kresser WFR 134 Andy Galpin WFR 088 Dan Pardi WFR 011 Ariel Garten of Muse About Justin Andrews Justin Andrews has an incredible passion to disrupt the personal training industry and create ground breaking programs and tools that fitness professionals and clients alike can benefit from. The fitness industry in general needs a massive face lift to speak more to the generation growing up with a more advanced technology tool kit. Justin’s approach is to create programs that utilize technology as it advances and cut through the millions of options people face every day when seeking specific information relating to their fitness needs. The great thing about where we are today is how easy it is to access information, the bad part about accessing all this information is how much misinformation is out there to weed through. As a health and fitness professional with a proven track record here in the heart of the Silicon Valley, Justin will keep working tirelessly to keep people educated and connected to quality personal trainers long into the future.

Power Quotes From The Show "I'm in the 'moment' when I'm unconditionally present. By that, I have a string of several moments put together in which I feel unconditional acceptance and love. That could be acceptance of someone else, of a situation, or of myself. However, if I'm not experiencing unconditional acceptance and love of myself, then I cannot give it to others." - Adam Markel "We're not taught how to love ourselves and there's no manual to follow to understand what unconditional self-love looks like. So, we become programmed to see ourselves as either incomplete or unworthy based on how we're judged or observing different examples." - Adam Markel "Intimacy isn't really about the sensual part of the relationship. It's actually about you being vulnerable and feeling comfortable with your true, authentic self. Too many people believe that a relationship will fix them and make them feel whole. We cannot put that burden on someone else; it's our own responsibility to make ourselves feel complete." - Adam Markel "We express gratitude as a part of our family rituals, to each other, and as much as possible every day. As far as I know, it's the highest form of spiritual practice and it's a blessing to experience that in my relationship with my wife." - Adam Markel "The things that you try to hide are the thorns in the relationship. When you try to control or sedate them, you begin walking on eggshells to try to avoid the pain. However, pain is a part of life; it's just another thing in the universe. If the pain controls you, then how can you be present when you're trying to avoid it?" - Adam Markel Links From Today's Show: Adam Markel Facebook Start My PIVOT Community Facebook Group Twitter Instagram YouTube LinkedIn Pivot: The Art and Science of Reinventing Your Career and Life by Adam Markel Success from the Heart by Adam Markel The Conscious PIVOT Podcast with Adam Markel The Conscious PIVOT Podcast - Resilience & Wellness Intelligence with Josh Trent – Show #29 RiseUp: The Movie Dr. Joe Dispenza Gary Vaynercheck The Untethered Soul by Michael A.

Maybe you want to start something, but you're too afraid. However, there will never be a 'right' time and you just have to take the leap. You may fall on your face many times, but that's okay. That's part of the journey. - Ali Reti Discover the power of progress over perfection by focusing on small wins rather than stressing over the bigger picture.

In Wellness Force Radio #153, Ali Reti of RetiFit joins us to share how she activated a life she loves and how she's now helping other people do the same through health and wellness. A recovering perfectionist, as well as former national fitness trainer turned life coach, public speaker, and podcast host of the The Ali Reti Podcast: Activate A Life You Love, Ali understands that completely changing life around is no easy task. However, if you take small steps and focus on daily achievements, anything is truly possible.

Listen To Episode 153 As Ali Reti Uncovers: What she learned from her parents' experiences and challenges as entrepreneurs. Why you should focus more on progress over perfection. The power of small wins over time to make your progress last. How showing up and being present will keep you on a steady path. What you can do to make yourself more comfortable with the future and unknown by being in touch with your spirituality. Where Ali's past drive for perfectionism came from in the first place. How can you be vulnerable from a healthy standpoint? Why it's normal to be tested by life and the universe when you're trying to improve and move on up with life. How shame and guilt can hold you back from reaching out for the help that you need and why you should reach out to someone if you're struggling. Dealing with the great unknown and anxious thoughts about the future. The power of finding the daily joys and knowing that something cannot just happen overnight. How she worked as an Uber driver to stay financially secure while working hard towards her career goal. Why a dream job might not be all that you thought it would be and those who you once idolized aren't what you thought they were. The difference between taking massive action and the more calm, center-focused, and inspired action. Why no one single method of discovering inspired action exists because it's different for each person. Different ways to discover your own inspired action as long as it resonates with you. Shutting down the negative 'monkey mind' voice in your head. Power Quotes From The Show "Fitness and nutrition are both very important, but there are so many different aspects to our lives such as our relationships, home life, or work. So, if those things not going well and we're not happy, then everything else will suffer." - Ali Reti "I believe that our intuition will always guide us to exactly where we need to be." - Ali Reti "I cope with anxious thoughts about the unknown by telling myself that if it's not this, then it's something better. I trust that if this is not what I'm supposed to be doing, then I can't even fathom how amazing my life will be with my next decision." - Ali Reti "As humans, we're meant to collaborate and go through experiences together. Whatever you're experiencing right now, you're not actually meant to go through it alone. Know that and be brave by reaching out to someone for help." - Ali Reti "When you put 'good' out into the world, that comes back to you. When you give to others, you have no idea how that will come back, but it will certainly impact your life." - Ali Reti Links From Today's Show: Ali Reti Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube LinkedIn The Ali Reti Podcast: Activate A Life You Love Episode 76 - Coping with the Unknown The Law of Attraction Wellbridge Brené Brown On Air With Ella Les Brown - The Chinese Bamboo Tree (Lesson on Patience) Tony Robbins Finding Joe Past Life Regression EPIC Bar RXBAR WFR #129 - Gretchen Rubin WFR #127 - Ella Lucas-Averett WFR #055 - Gay and Katie Hendricks About Ali Reti A recovering perfectionist, Ali Reti is intimately familiar with how losing sight of the forest for the trees can cause crippling stress and anxiety on a regular basis.

We all have a different body and metabolism that can change from day to day. LEVL allows you to take measurements to actually see where your fat metabolism is at and what your body is using for fuel.

Power Quotes From The Show "It turns out that the Keto diet is great for therapeutic uses as well. There is some evidence to demonstrate that an elevated level of ketones can help with therapy of cancer, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's. However, even though there will be range of people who have a disease and benefit from ketosis, there will be those who do not benefit from it." - Dr. Joe Anderson "My keto-flu period lasted a long time. It lasted from 2 weeks to a month and so I tell people to give it 1-3 months. I was in a state of nutritional ketosis, but I wasn't feeling good and I almost wanted to give up, but I couldn't give up on myself that easy. I've been a sugar burner all my life and I knew that I wasn't going to be able to switch to becoming a fat burner in just a month." - Andrea Duchovonic "When you are losing fat, but you haven't been keto-adapted for a long period of time, eating foods with sugar can really hit you hard. Whereas, if you're around 6 months into a keto program and you're eating high fat and low sugar, you might be able to recover more quickly from eating a slice of cake because the machinery inside your body has already been ramped up.
