Dr. Deb Muth 00:03What if bloating, back pain, and low energy aren’t separate problems, but clues from the same root cause? What if your posture and the way your fascia moves are changing how your digestion works and how you feel every day? Today, we’re unpacking why symptoms like bloating, fatigue, and persistent pain often come from deeper, whole body issues, and how a multimodal, root cause approach speeds real recovery. You guys can, put our advertisement in here for Venari before we do the intro.Welcome back to Let’s Talk Wellness Now, the show where we uncover the root causes of chronic illness, explore cutting-edge regenerative and integrative care, and empower you with practical tools to heal.I’m Dr. Deb, your medical detective, and today we’re talking about whole body recovery, how movement, fascia, gut health, and personalized medicine come together to restore function, energy, and confidence in your body. If you or someone you love struggles with bloating, pain that won’t quit. Slow recovery after surgery or postpartum, or chronic low energy, this episode is for you.So get comfortable, grab a warm drink, And let’s get into it.So today, I’m joined by Dr. Shalini Bhat, founder of the Movement Boutique in Toronto. She is a chiropractor and double-certified functional medicine practitioner who builds care around root causes, lady after my own heart. And rather than just treating the symptoms, as we all know, and you guys have heard me talk about before, that is how we get to the other side of things. So, what I love about your work is you blend the clinical expertise and that lived experience, and just before we started recording, we were talking about the difference of fascia.and chiropractic, and even when you’re looking at bringing in acupuncture and Pilates and functional medicine, having all those modalities together is so amazing. So, before we dive into all of this stuff. Tell us a little bit about your own story. Shalinibhat 02:49Yeah, well, my own story is that I grew up very steeped in Western medicine. My father’s a surgeon, and I had, you know, access to all the allopathic care that was out there, but I kind of had all that, what I call, gray area symptoms. That doesn’t make it into, you know, an allopathic answer, so to speak. And so, having access to all of… you know, the best… this specialist and that specialist didn’t really give my IBS you know, some type of help, and it didn’t really give my chronic back pain some type of help. And I kept, like, tearing my meniscus. I was a dancer, and I just kept, like, thinking, I’m doing all the same things as all these other girls in my class. Why am I the one who keeps tearing my meniscus? Like, what is up with… they… like, we all have the exact same tissues. Why is my tissue resilience so low? that this keeps happening to me. And I seem to be the only one in, you know. from dancing from 3 till I was… when I was 3 till when I was 18, and experiencing this, and I’m looking at everybody, like, what’s the deal? And I sort of felt different, but I couldn’t really pinpoint what was going on, and probably similar to your story. all the things that were coming at me were just labels and diagnoses, and like, you know, same with my meniscus, they were like, the first time, they were like, alright, we do surgery. I was like, okay, sounds good, like, went and did the surgery. The second time it, tore, I was like, that obviously didn’t, do it, because they took out 30% the first time, and then, you know, some of the 70%, you know, tore. And I said, there has to be… there has to be some reason why my My tissue resilience is low, and why that shear force is going through on my left knee every single time, like that same mechanical strain is happening, and fast forward to today, I realized that fascia is this fabric that runs all over the body in huge swaths, and in very large, sort of movement patterns, which we’ll get into, but basically, the way that I was, like, standing, the way that I was… my tissue resilience was less, that’s what was setting the stage for me to re-tear that meniscus, but nobody was asking those questions. My IBS, like the stealth infections I had, the leaky gut I had, all of those things creating excessive inflammation just in my body in general was decreasing my tissue resilience and making me re-injure that same area. So instead of, oh, I’ll just keep getting it, you know, shaved down or taken out, like, why was that same mechanistic injury and strain happening? on that knee, and I started asking different questions, which led me to, instead of going to medical school, say, oh, wait, chiropractors can actually, like, you know.Actually move the body, understand what’s going on, spend the time with patients to properly diagnose, and then actually use our hands, because I’ve always been a very tactile person. Being a dancer, you know you’re always using your body, I understand my body, so when I started my kinesiology degree. I… kinesiology was a no-brainer. I’m like, I have a body, I want to use it, I want to learn… you know, when I’m learning about the muscles and the hands and the… like, I have that, so it’s… I’ve always been a touch kind of person, and that makes sense to me, learning about the body. And, that’s why I ended up studying in such, let’s say, asking alternative questions, so to speak, and that’s why even when I finished my kinesiology degree, and even when I finished my chiropractic training, I still went to school to learn acupuncture training, because I still had more questions, and thenI… and concurrently, I was teaching Pilates as well, and Pilates always resonated with me because I thought, yeah, if you have this really strong powerhouse and this really strong core, that always helped my back. And it always helped my knee. And so, translating kind of all four of these modalities, the chiropractic, the fascial release, the acupuncture, and the Pilates, became sort of my… my own little method that I created on how to help people. I probably… a lot of people listening to this, think of chiropractic as, like, you go somewhere and you get crack, crack, crack top to bottom. That actually is not how I’ve ever practiced, either, because even when I was chronically inflamed with all these issues, even an adjustment would send me into more inflammation, and I would be, in… having aches and pains, so that was not even… I needed it so much gentler, and that’s why I started working with fascia and thinking, like, what else is here? And, like, if someone’s so inflamed, maybe an adjustment is too aggressive for, somebody in the moment. And there’s a time and a place for everything, don’t get me wrong, but that wasn’t my personal, you know, go-to, so to speak, and so that’s why I started working more gently around fascia, and that’s why I used acupuncture needles, and pilates training, and rehabilitation, and looking at people’s movement patterns, and seeing, okay, where are things going off here, and what’s the actual… I hate the word root cause, but that’s where we all come from, it’s just gotten so crazy. But really, truly, if you have back pain, why are we just looking at the back.Like, if your entire pelvis is off, if your entire, like, body is leaning to one side, and you’re putting way more weight on one foot than another, like, why are we… why are we just treating the back? Why are we just adjusting the back? Why are we just, you know, putting ice on the back, or put… or putting painkillers, or rubbing things on the back? We gotta look at the entire body as one whole system when it comes to injury, and that’s my very long backstory to tell you how I… sort of amassed these different things that I do, And in my training. Sorry, I forgot one piece in there, and that’s… with my gut thing and my IBS, I went back to school and did functional medicine training to figure out what that was about, because, and even when my uncle mentioned it, I think, oh gosh, early 2000s, he said, leaky gut, and I thought, well, people probably think these days, like, wait, there’s holes in my stomach? You know, like, what isAnd at that time, you know, way back in the day, the first test was, like, that, flakulose mannitol, like, that really. Dr. Deb Mut 08:53Boom. Shalinibhat 08:53You can get tests. Yeah. Now, obviously, we’ve come a long way. So yeah, that’s how I ended up with all these five random modalities that are sort of enmeshed into one, and that’s what we do in my practice. My clinical practice is literally all of those modalities, and we really meet people where they are. So we invite anyone to come to us with, whether they have an MSK issue, and that’s the primary thing they want to work on, we can do it by starting Pilates. We can do it by starting fascial training. We can do it by starting acupuncture. We can do it by running labs and seeing where you are functionally if you want to lower that inflammation, or those stealth infections, or whatever it is that you have going on. So we invite anyone to come in and sort of pick their service menu, because I feel we… we should help everyone, but not everyone feels… like, not everyone’s like, wow, I want to run a school test with you first. They may have the capacity to be like, okay, I’ll try a workout, or I’ll try a Pilates class, you know? And then once they’re in our space, they’re like, oh wait, what else do you offer here? This is really different than where I’ve been. So that’s sort of what my practice is all about. Dr. Deb Muth 09:58I love that. I love that blending of all of the different things, and I think, you know, some of the best practitioners are those who’ve been through things, and it doesn’t have to be that way, but we kind of explore all the different things that could be causing our issues, which allows us to have a little bit bigger reach, across modalities, because there’s never the one thing that fixes everything. It’s kind of like in the conventional medicine world, we’re looking for the one pill that fixes everything, and there just isn’t that. And so, when you’re looking at blending all of these things, eventually you will find the right thing for each person, because it could be very different. You know, what works for me might not work for you, or it might be a different combination, and I think looking at each person as an individual is really important these days. Shalinibhat 10:44Totally, yeah, and I can’t… like, I just have to emphasize what you said again, because everyone is looking for it to be… you have patients like this, I have patients like this who come and they’re like, I’m just looking for that one guru, that one person who’s gonna finally tell me what it is that I have. Finally, I’m looking for that one answer, I’m looking for that one supplement, and like, if I can just reiterate exactly what you said, like. there will be 10 different kind of things that could be bothering you, and 10 different kind of solutions that will be the best for any given person, and if we just change our mindset around that, like, just say, oh, there won’t be one exact thing, and one exact solution, and I should be bucketing myself into 10 different things, and like, just… even just the sheer change of mindset and expectation, I think would help like, everybody, including practitioners, right? Because people will come to us and say, what is the one thing? What is the one, like, what is the one supplement, right? Dr. Deb Muth 11:38Yeah. Shalinibhat 11:39it’s too much pressure, right? Dr. Deb Muth 11:41It is, yeah. Shalinibhat 11:42Yeah. Dr. Deb Muth 11:44Yeah. Yeah, when they come and say, you’re my last hope, and you’re like, oh boy. I hope not, but that’s how we get sometimes. We’re looking for that person with that final answer, and and there is… there’s not just one answer, and I think that’s the important takeaway. So, let’s dive into, fascia. It’s a word that a lot of people might have heard, but don’t really understand what that is. Tell us about fascia and how it fits into the influence of movement and pain, and how can we change that for people? Shalinibhat 12:19Yeah, I love this question, because even one of my own patients who I manually treated for, you know, 14, 13 years, she said to me, Charlie, you know what’s becoming so hot? There’s the word fascia. I’m hearing it all of a sudden. I was like, what? So, yes, even people receiving fascial care, sometimes don’t even put two and two together. Fascia is basically when you cut open a chain chicken breast. When you cut open a steak, there’s that sort of film that’s on, you know, the chicken, or there’s that kind of film around a steak, and those white kind of areas, that we sort of cut off. That is fascia, and if you picture it in a chicken breast, it’s really that… it’s really that thin layer that comes off of that chicken. And what’s really cool about fascia is it’s highly resilient when it’s stretched, so if you actually were to picture stretching that chicken, you know, piece, if you actually, like, you know, hit it with your finger, it would be pretty tensile.But if you kind of let it go and be, relaxed, it’s very flexible. So you could actually take your finger and almost put your finger through that piece of that film, and it would almost make it all the way. So fascia is very flexible, but it’s also extremely resilient. And that is… those two qualities of that fabric are what will give us more tissue resilience.The other thing that we need… sorry, I should also back up. Fascia, by the way, is just a fabric that encases everything in your body. So, it’s a support structure, it holds our organs up in the places where they’re meant to be, otherwise gravity would pull them all down into our pelvis. It surrounds every, you know, blood vessel and nerve and, lymph, area, and then let alone all your muscles and your bones. So, even when we’re talking about something like bone health and bone strength, you know, often people are talking just about this calcium conversation when we’re talking about bone, for example, and fascia is encasing that bone, right? So I just talked about the resilience of that type of, what’s on a chicken breast. I’ll actually change analogies here just to… for people to understand a little more. If you take women’s nylons, of those thin nylons, same thing, right? If you pull them really tight, and you were just holding them in your hand, and someone were to flick it, it’s very strong, right? But again, if you held it single layer and kind of put your finger through, it’s very flexible. So, in… as we age.If that tissue’s getting really tight and dehydrated and, you know, it’s not flexible as bone moves, right? That fabric is what’s holding that bone and creating that sort of shock absorption if we’re doing anything. It’s that women’s nylon that’s kind of shock absorbing that bone when it’s coming down you know, jumping, landing, whatever, running, whatever it is that we’re doing. So that’s why one of the big things of, you know, strength training or keeping your body moving as you age is because it continues to make that fabric that’s actually around the bone. So yes, we talk about things in such isolation. Oh, we need bone health, we need bone strength. Okay, that’s great, but what’s actually intertwined right around that bone, creatingthat integrity is fascia. And one of the ways to keep it, again, flexible and tensile and strong, which are the two qualities we wanted it, is to keep it very hydrated. And there’s, you know, another kind of way to think about hydrated and not hydrated fascia. If you think of beef jerky, but you think of steak, you can… a raw steak, sorry guys, if anyone’s vegan. The beef jerky spirit, you can tear it super easily. Right? But you can’t take a piece of raw steak and tear it with your bare hands, right? You can’t. It’s so strong. So the same thing goes for that type of hydration. You want to keep that tissue really hydrated, and that’s why in a lot of scenarios with chronic aches or pains.The tissue is really dehydrated, and so that’s why, when someone goes for a massage, or they go for fascial release, or they have direct stimulation to that tissue, that’s actually breaking those adhesions and kind of, almost like a sponge, it’s compressing and releasing, which is actually bringing more moisture into that gel-like matrix that is fascia which allows those fibers to move again, so again, we’re bringing that flexibility and that tensile strength back, which gives you more of that raw steak texture versus that beef jerky, right? That beef jerky’s so vulnerable. You go to do a workout on beef jerky, you’re ripping your muscle. I’m so sore, I can’t get up and, you know, people who are so unusually sore the next day, for example, versus those people who have nice, hydrated fascia that they… that they’re great, they’re working on a raw steak texture, they’re not going to rip something or have that feeling of being so vulnerable. So that’s basically, yeah, to answer your question about where fascia fits into, everything. And again, just to reiterate fascia it actually… when you look at… I don’t know if you know any of the work of Tom Myers, that’s who I studied way back in the day, like.In the early 2000s he, you know, wrote this book called Anatomy Trains, and what it, illustrates is how long the connections of fascia are. So, the exact same sheath might start from our forehead and our scalp and go all the way down the back of the skull, all the way down the spine, through the pelvis, down the back, down the hamstrings, down the calves, right into the plantar fascia. So, I… I say plantar fascia because that’s the one area I think people have heard the word fascia before. So, although they’ve heard plantar fasciitis probably more. Dr. Deb Muth 18:06But no. Shalinibhat 18:07you know, it’s from the plantar fascia. And the plantar fascia is a continuous sheath of fascia all the way up to our head. So, you know, at any point along that entire chain, there might be a dysfunction. So you might be having… you might be experiencing plantar fasciitis, but you’re… that… you could address that person’s fascia anywhere along that entire line. To be able to truly again, within quotation marks, root cause, address that plantar fasciitis, because someone might have plantar fasciitis, it hurts when they step out of bed in the morning, they have that exact classical pain, they’ve been to the GP, GP says, yep, you got plantar fasciitis, they go, okay, and now they’re, you know. no better off, they might give them, like, a few things to do, but really, if they actually address that entire channel of fascia, they would give themselves more space, and consequently decrease a lot of that inflammation in that one area that’s, again, getting… just like my knee injury at the beginning, why is that one area taking so much brunt? there’s an issue along the chain. And I’m giving you one train, but there are many different trains that work in long sheets throughout the whole body. And another way I, like, sort of. I like analogies because I’m a visual person. Again, back to that dance mindset. I think another way people can really get on board with, like, fascia being in long sheaths is picturing a woman in a one-piece bathing suit. If you pull up the shoulder straps of that one-piece bathing suit, can you give her a wedgie? Like, she can pick that wedgie all day long. Dr. Deb Muth 19:42Right. Shalinibhat 19:43actually the shoulder straps that you need to release to get rid of it completely. So that’s kind of, like, the easiest example I can give to someone to relate, like, because they might have that wedgie-type experience or symptom, and they go to their doctor, I’m having a wedgie, I’m having a wedgie, and they’re like. Dr. Deb Muth 19:58No. Shalinibhat 19:59let’s pick it, let’s glue the bathing suit down, let’s do this, let’s do that. Really, someone’s up here franking those shoulder straps way up. You’re never going to get rid of that wedgie unless you actually see where it’s getting, pulled. And really. rings true for the gut as well, which is what I’ve learned. And… like I mentioned, fascia’s encasing our entire organ and organ systems as well, so if people are, you know, messed up and torqued in their spiral line, for example, and if they also are having tightness in different areas of their, you know, whatever, stomach, small intestine, large, like, anywhere along the actual gut, that that does make a big difference for bowel habits, gas, you know, trapped gas, IPS, all that kind of stuff as well. So the musculoskeletal component. And this fascial tangling, for example, also does make a big difference with IBS and stomach aches and all that kind of stuff as well. Dr. Deb Muth 21:02Yeah, and I think, too, one of the biggest things that we disregard, or maybe just don’t think of when it comes to GI issues, is the psoas muscle. Like, when people are constipated, and you start pushing around on that psoas muscle, they’re not gonna like you very much. But even for, like, that low back, that pelvic pain, if we start adjusting that and start doing movements, or yoga, or just massage of that psoas muscle and do a release on the psoas muscle. it can make a huge difference in somebody’s lower back pain. Do you want to speak a little bit to that? Shalinibhat 21:39Yeah, I mean, so there’s… yes, and, I mean, the psoas also right there, fascially, is, on the same train as the diaphragm. So, right under there, how that rib cage is sitting. And how the diaphragm tightness related to exactly what you’re saying, let’s say the top of the psoas fascia, for example, that’s going to change our breathing mechanics, which is also going to change the pressure, you know, kind of pressing down through the gut and everything which we need. It’s also going to change how we’re breathing. So, you know, you and I know taking lower, slower belly breaths and full breaths Better than shallow, breathing up through the neck, which people can relate to by, you know, people always are like, oh, are you sure breathwork’s gonna help? I’m like, if I gave you a paper bag right now and told you to hyperventilate for a scene of a movie like you were an actor, would you actually induce a panic attack on yourself? Potentially. even go the other way, that yes, maybe, you know, sitting down and proper breathing could actually, yes, bring you into this relaxed state, which we, of course, know that, but sometimes people are like, breathing, whatever, that can’t make a difference, right? And you’re like, oh, let’s do the hyperventilation one, let’s give you the bag and start just going, right? See how you feel. Dr. Deb Muth 22:54Yeah, exactly. Shalinibhat 22:56that breathwork and changing someone’s breathing mechanics, and I mean this in a gross, sense of actually, because I’ve done a ton of hands-on work for the last 16 years, when you actually release… a lot of people have tight diaphragms, they don’t even realize, and when you actually get in there and can release that fascia. Not only are a lot of those peoplethose tight, psoaszy people that you just mentioned. But it can dramatically, change how the gut is moving and how they’re feeling in that area as well, right? Again, that pressure change, moving gas, all of that. And then. Going down, how the psoas goes from right under the rib cage to the front of the hip, and I know this is a podcast, so I’m trying to speak it out for people who don’t… who can’t, visualize it, but it comes off the front wall of the lower spine, and then goes all the way down to the hips. And when this muscle can feel tight, to your point, this could feel like appendicitis on one side, you know? At some point, this can be very uncomfortable. I had a patient, actually, very similar story recently. had, like, almost a psoas spasm with a torque through her spine, and diaphragm tight, that’s exactly what I was telling you about. Went to the hospital, thought she had appendicitis, had every, like, ran every single test, was in agony, came to see me, we did all this fascial release of all that exact area. She was like, my pain’s gone. And, like, that’s not something they would ever evaluate there. Dr. Deb Muth 24:21No, they don’t even think about it. Shalinibhat 24:24No, it wouldn’t even cross their mind. So, Yes, there are definitely postural consequences. to not only people who are having tummy aches, gut issues, stomach pain, but it will affect breathing mechanics, and to your point, releasing… I find releasing anywhere in that mid-area, so diaphragm, top of the psoas, like, getting in the obliques, like, anywhere that people can start to relieve in that area is fantastic, and if people need, like, a kind of at-home way to do that, you can take… you can, like, roll up a washcloth and even just put it under where your ribs kind of connect at the front, and just lie on it and let your rib cage kind of fall over it. If you have, we have a little cork ball here, that’s a thing you can sort of put in that area, like, kind of just, under the rib cage. And on either side of the midline is sort of where you would start. If anything felt completely uncomfortable, anyone listening, absolutely adjust it, and start with something less. But that can be such a big, tool, just opening up the front wall of that deeper fascia, for sure. Dr. Deb Muth 25:36That’s awesome. How do you use Pilates? Pilates is well known for so many things, right? But when you’re using Pilates, how do you use it to retrain the movement patterns to reduce pain long-term? Shalinibhat 25:50Okay, so that’s such a good question. So I did training in Pilates 20 years ago. so I would say it’s Pilates-informed, but it’s certainly not directly Joseph Pilates work that I, use by any means, if people are picturing his sequence or anything like that. But that basically informed my… understanding of the core, and I was teaching for 20 years, you know, like, just watching movement patterns, movement patterns, and what I noticed, which is so fascinating, the number of, men, actually, who have diastasis, who, you know, they maybe reach midlife and just Like, suddenly got that belly fat or something, and, like, they’re… they have a diastasis, and, like, they maybe play hockey, or they’re playing, you know, they’re weekend warrioring, kind of, their workouts, and suddenly get really bad back pain, and they have the tightest hips because they’re not really doing any type of cross-training, but they’re… They’re working… they’re doing so much hockey. And they have this back pain, and they’re like, I have no idea what’s going on. And again, they go to the… practitioner that myopically is like, it’s back pain, let’s do an image, oh, it’s a disc bulge here, and like, okay, you know, let’s do these XYZ. And I’m like, dude, these people… this is a diastasis, like, you have literally separated your. Dr. Deb Muth 27:06Nope. Shalinibhat 27:06You are not using your deep core at all. It’s completely, un, what’s the word? It’s unconnected. Like, they actually training as if they had a baby. So it’s really… it’s a population that I think is, like, not, because sometimes when we’re in school, you and me both, we learn these very textbook things that we know when a woman’s had a baby to evaluate her abdomen, you know, to look for diastasis. Dr. Deb Muth 27:33Right. Shalinibhat 27:33Or retraining, that’s a time in a woman’s life during school that we were very much, you know, that’s a… that’s where diastasis, that’s where you hear that word, right? Listening, sorry, diastasis is when your abdominal wall separates in the front from a quick or fast, abdominal expansion, which is why we think of it with, Prenatal, postpartum-type, situations. But we’re… we’re completely omitting this, this… you know, just evaluating people in general. I just saw, a young lady yesterday in her 20s, and she does Pilates every single day. Every single day she does Pilates, and she’s like, I can’t feel my obliques. And I was like, come in here, come in here, let me check this out. And her superficial, her, rectus abdominis, which is her most superficial abdominal layer, it was compensating For her obliques. And that shouldn’t be the case when you’re 20, and I had to undo a whole bunch of different kind of fascial torques that were happening, because When somebody… like, if you picture… if you picture blocks standing on each other and they’re not, sort of, perfectly aligned. then they’re gonna topple, right? And I’m just saying that for the people listening, like, that’s when I say fascial torque, it means that the structure isn’t, isn’t optimal in how it’s going to fire, and how the muscles are going to signal to contract. And so what I had to do, I had to say, wow, it’s actually so cool how your superficial rectus abdominis has compensated for your obliques in this way, and it was, like, really fascinating to watch it, actually, and how she would get around doing it. But we had to completely undo those torques, and then she was able to use her obliques afterwards. So I think there’s a huge miss in abdominal evaluation when it comes to chronic low back pain, or back pain, or, yeah, when you’re talking about, like, where does Pilates fit in, I think Pilates is great when you have somebody who’s really good at teaching it, and I use, principles from it to evaluate people’s core. I mean, so hard to say, because I’ve been doing it for so long now, where I’ve pulled the tools from, but yes, it’s definitely Pilates-informed of how I get their core firing back again, and I would be… you would be absolutely shocked, at the number of people who do work out tons, or do Pilates tons, or… and I own a Pilates studio, okay? I’m very openly admitting that, a ton of people are doing these things that are quote-unquote good for their course. Sit-ups, going to the gym, doing this.Thing, and they actually aren’t three-dimensionally training that area due to, again, these huge, long fascial chains that are just… they’re just not trained how they should be, and what I mean by that is we are so sedentary as a population, this, like, in 2026, like, we’ve never, ever, ever been more sedentary in our whole. like, lives, and we… these fascial chains, we are meant to be up and out, and, like, walking tons, and hanging off trees, and picking things up, and, like, we’re meant to be doing huge movements, and we don’t. We sit in chairs, and then we stand up, and we’re like, I’m gonna go to the gym, and we get on a bike, and we do this much range of motion, and then we do some bicep curls, and do this tiny bit of range of motion. We don’t do huge ranges of notion. things that we should be doing with… to keep that, again, those long swaths of fascia really healthy. And so that’s what ends up happening, because when we do those huge ranges of motions in all those different ranges of motion, like, we have many that we can access.And when we miss a lot of those, those huge swaths don’t get trained, and that’s why the core ends up so weak. And to your point about the psoas earlier, the psoas gets, you know, tight in the wrong ways, and we get weak as a result. But yeah, if I could just say back to… Pilates is not synonymous with a good core, and I think every single person listening should have a good, proper core evaluation, and that’s actually one of the things I’m working on, is for people to be able to self-evaluate properly their core, and their breathing mechanics on how to undo this for themselves, because I’ve done it now with so many people, and it’s been so changing, and it seems so easy to me, it’s almost like it’s like my side gig, because I do, like, oh, I’ll run your labs, and your gut health, and this, but this… it makes… You know, it makes such a huge difference that people… we should all be, you know, educated in looking at this. Dr. Deb Muth 32:14Yeah, so since we’re talking about core, let’s kind of talk about gut health. That seems to be something that you’ve dealt with before. So when we’re talking about people who have bloating and brain fog and low energy, which is half the population, if not more these days, right? What are you seeing as the most common underlying patterns from a physical standpoint, if not a, you know, an infectious standpoint as well? Shalinibhat 32:42I mean, from physicality alone, I would say, again, this… prescriptive, chronic, like, diagnosis of sedentation. Like, I… I can’t… I cannot say enough, like, if you go to work from 9 to 5, and then you go on your spin bike for half an hour in the day, and then sit and watch Netflix, I know… like, and I mean this from the nicest place, I know the person’s intention is correct, like, I know that they really are, like, yep, tick mark, did my workout today. I love that for you. Also, like, that is not an active person. Like, that’s not. Like, you know, 10,000 steps or, like, aiming to be mobile, like, moving as much as humanly possible in a day, like, really, that’s the goal. How much can you possibly move in a day? Because that is where a huge piece… bloating, brain fog, and low energy, let’s just cut to the chase. Hydration and lack of circulation, that’s just, like.Basically, here we go. So that’s… that’s one and two, right? So let’s just talk about move as much as humanly possible, because A, you’re going to move that gas, so trapped gas is going to move, you’re going to actually help digestion and peristalsis, you’re going to help your blood sugar. Then, when we’re talking about brain fog, you need, you know, circular… and again, you and I know there could be many issues, but let’s… let’s stay very high level, because you asked physicality. Moving tons is going to help that, too. Oxygenating those tissues, right? Again, breathing, right? So those breathing mechanics we talked about, our breathing mechanics are going to be better when we’re standing up than if we’re just sitting… like, collapsed, right? So, again, moving more is the ultimate prescription that I would give for every single thing that you just mentioned, energy included, because almost like, you know when you nap in the afternoon and you wake up, you feel less energy? That’s sort of where I think of, like, you know, non-moving, right? And you gotta… yes, there’s gonna be a point to everyone listening who’s like, I can’t even move that much, my weather sucks, or like, whatever.Just walk around your office, like, you know, make a… you’ve got to put the timer. Unfortunately, in the world we live in, we have to use timers, right? Because we’re just going to be, you know, not able to do that. The second thing I would say is even just in that sense of physicality is meet, which I’m sure you know about non-exercise activity time, right? Which is just standing more. So, even just setting your your phone timer for every 20 minutes, because every 20 minutes is when you know, your body’s going to… or every 15-20 minutes, A, it’s when your fascia just goes, oh, okay, you’re kind of not moving, so I’m just gonna, like, I’m just gonna sort of relax here, and that’s where it loses resilience. So that’s something called tissue creep. So that’s why, if you sat all day long, you were kind of semi-stretching it and, like, in a seated position, and that’s why when you then are at home showering, you go to reach for your razor, and you’re like. My god, I just, like, put my back out. It wasn’t that you went to go pick up a razor, it was that all day. Dr. Deb Muth 35:41long. Shalinibhat 35:41That tissue was semi-stretched in this one, you know, sedentary range of motion, for example, and that’s something called tissue creep. And when we have tissue creep, we are so prone to injury in that. So when you stand up every 15-20 minutes, you bring that recoil back to that fascia. So, like I said, we have that flexibility to it, and we have that tensile strength to it, and actually just standing up and sitting back down. will bring both of those qualities back to it, because it will hydrate it. So that’s another thing that, I think people could incorporate more in their day, is that non-exercise activity time called MEAT. That would be my answer for your physicality questions. Dr. Deb Muth 36:19I love that. I remember when I learned about the atomic habits, and I was reading that book, and one of the things that he had talked about was moving more, right? And how do we create these habits? And one of the things that he did was, every time he went to the bathroom, he would do 3 wall push-ups, 3 squats. And so, as you got up every day, you know, multiple times you get up to go, by the end of the day, you had a complete workout in, and you didn’t really even have to overexert yourself, you were just moving your body more, and I think we think of workout as, I have to go to the gym, I have to spend a half hour, 45 minutes there, I have to sweat, it has to be all at one time, and it really doesn’t have to be that way. It can be these small movements throughout the whole day, and by the end of the day, you’ve had your whole workout in. And for those people who are listening to us going, I don’t have time for a workout. I just gave you the time for the workout. Shalinibhat 37:15Yeah, exactly. And just one thing to add to that, only because you said squats and push-ups, I love that, but squats and push-ups are in the exact same range of motion as, cycling and running. So I think that… I think we actually spend too much time in that plane of motion, so if everyone thinks of sitting, standing, cycling, running, squatting, push-ups, they’re all in the same range of motion. We actually all need way more Twisting, like, huge twisting ranges of motion. Dr. Deb Muth 37:43And… Shalinibhat 37:44Need side bending. So if we can include, you know, jumping jacks, that’d be the side bending kind of thing, or side stretching, kind of think on that plane of motion, and big, huge twisting motions, those are two categories of planes of motion that we’re missing, so I would, like, just if someone thinks of, like, what do I do all day? Oh yeah, I do bicep curls, and I do push-ups, and I do squats, and I do lunges, and I… cycling, you are literally working on a range of motion, and, you know, again, back to that, how do we create fashion resilience? Dr. Deb Muth 38:18One Shalinibhat 38:19I’m twisting and side bending as well, those types of movements in our day, big time. Dr. Deb Muth 38:24I love that. That is… that is so great. I love that. So, when we put all of this together, you’re… you’re doing some acupuncture, you’re doing some chiropractic, some Pilates, some fascial release, and… and obviously functional medicine together, too. What does a coordinated, week-to-week look like for somebody who’s taking on all of these modalities to fix their chronic pain, or just to make their body move better? Shalinibhat 38:52Kind of what I said at the top of the call, meet yourself where you’re at, and look for results in what moves the needle for you. So let’s say you did go to a Pilates class, and you’re like, wait, I’m, like, actually feeling so much more energized in my, you know, from the twisting I did in this class, my digestion’s feeling a little bit better. Awesome, double down, go again.If you went for a treatment, and you were like, you know what? That fascial release made my back finally feel open, and I’m feeling great, and that’s made my mood lighter, and my sleep got better, amazing, go again. If you went to acupuncture and, you know, you felt that the needles, like, gave you this sense of calm and a nervous system reset, and that helped your digestion and your sleep, awesome, go back to it. Whatever, like, you can get those huge bucket you know, wins in any type of modality you’re going to… to start, you just gotta start it and notice whether there was a shift for you. If you went to a practitioner and you were like, then that’s not the person for you, and that’s not… and I should say the person, maybe, because maybe that modality is for you, but it was just the person. But do more stuff that makes you feel good. So, and I say that because I’ve had patients that are like, oh, I went to this person for 10 years, yeah, I felt okay, it was fine, they told me to come back. I don’t know, they told me to do this. Like, seek results, because, like, I’m a results-oriented person. When you come to see me.like, if I haven’t changed… if I haven’t made a huge difference in one session with you, like, please don’t come back. Like, you know, be like, that didn’t work for me, right? Dr. Deb Muth 40:26Number 7. Shalinibhat 40:26Reason it was complicated, and I explained to you why… like, if someone’s in major acute pain, and you can explain, this isn’t going to be the one-shot thing right now. Right. You know, and there are, like, listen to your practitioner like that, but you want to find a personal fit, first of all. It’s really important when we’re talking about these types of modalities, whether it’s acupuncture or hands-on care, fascial release, Pilates, you need to find someone who’s the right fit for you, because it has to be motivating and exciting, and you want to be able to want to go back. So, if you’re like, I don’t know, my friend kind of, like, goes, and like, they said I should go back next week. If that’s your energy going into it, you’re not going to get the best, most out of it, right? So just do whatever it is that, you know, I’m somebody… if I hear of someone through the grapevine with… through three people, that’s my thing. If three people say, so-and-so’s awesome, I’ll go try them. And then how I built my practice, I kept trying all these people that people would refer, and I would take the best bits of what they did through treatment and stuff, and I’d be like, okay, and I slowly started incorporating that into what I do as a clinician. And I would say the same for… not that you guys would be amassing it to do it as a clinician, but same thing when you go to seek any type of care, number one, make sure you have some type of a positive feeling when you’re coming out. Number two, don’t be… like, go back again. All of these things are meant to be compounded, so, you know, whether you decide to yourself, I’m going to do acupuncture once a month, then I’m gonna do fascial release twice a month, then I’m gonna do Pilates twice a month, and then I’m gonna make sure I get my walks in every single day, and I’m, you know, doing my breathwork and my relaxation techniques, and I’m just gonna prioritize my nutrition, drink my water, and go to sleep on time. Like, hello, you’ve already. Dr. Deb Muth 42:05I’m gonna leave our… Shalinibhat 42:07you’ve already done, you know, you’re gonna be better for it. So, put into your schedule whatever fits, and don’t make it overwhelming, because if something’s overwhelming, you’re also not going to do it, and then it’s not going to work either. Dr. Deb Muth 42:18Absolutely. This is a great conversation, I love this. I have one last question for you, and I ask this question of all of my guests. If you could change one thing in healthcare today, what would it be? Shalinibhat 42:31Oh my god. That’s such a good question. I… does it have to be realistic? Dr. Deb Muth 42:41It does not. Shalinibhat 42:43I would put someone with expertise like myself, and I’m not saying this, like, oh, I’m so good, like, just somebody with outer knowledge of the body and inner knowledge of the body from a gray area functional perspective in acute care. And what I mean by that is for example, that patient I gave earlier that went to the hospital with acute abdominal… within quotation marks, acute abdominal pain, seeking, like, is this appendicitis? If that person sought somebody who… or… That person sat and waited in the, you know. at ER for so long because they’re not bleeding from the head, you know what I mean? Right. And then you put a functional person in there, not only are they going to say, hey, you want to know what this is? That makes that patient feel great, because they feel heard, they feel seen, they now have an answer for what’s going on, and… they didn’t have to clog up the system. I think there’s a lot of functional, from an MSK perspective, people in the ER, and I think there’s a lot of functional you know, things that you and I would see in our practice in the ER. And I wish people were more equipped with the type of tools you and I might have that we take Granted, because if you or I have a symptom… I remember one day, actually, I had this… such an acute neck pain all of a sudden, and I knew exactly what it was, and I knew exactly what to do to, like, how… like, how to move, and how to lie, and what at that moment, and I said to myself, I said to my husband, I said, if I was a layperson right now, I would think death was on my door, I would make you run me to the ER right now in an ambulance, like, I would call an ambulance because of how I felt, but because I actually knew what it was, A, you have that locus of control. You’re like, oh, okay, I’ve seen this before, I’ve treated this before, I know how to deal with it. Okay, it’s gonna be 48 hours, here’s how it’s gonna start, like, here’s the position I need need to be in, blah blah blah.But if you don’t know that, that’s highly alarming. And so, the second… You didn’t ask me for two things, but I’m giving you two things anyways. That’s okay. The thing would be making sure that in schools, all of the children, all of the teenagers are extremely equipped with their own understanding of the body and understanding of tools available to them Should non-emergent things be happening to them that they could empoweringly address themselves. Dr. Deb Muth 45:12I love that, that’s great. I think you’re right, like, we’ve taken so much of how the body functions away from the general population of knowledge and made it so complicated that people can’t help themselves, and they’re so fearful of Any little thing that happens in the body. And I guess rightfully so, you know, there’s a lot of terrible things that can happen, and everybody’s afraid of the worst thing possibly happening, but I think if we could give power back to people so they understood their bodies. That would make all the difference in the world between them being a nervous wreck about something and waiting to see the doctor versus, I can treat this myself, and it’ll be better, and it’s okay. Because I think we’re… we’ve lost a lot of that magic of, folk medicine, so to speak, or the things we pass down from family generations, but we were able to treat a lot of things back then and make people not afraid of it, and we need to go back to learning that. Shalinibhat 46:10We do, and I think the other, like, one thing that I noticed with my son, even, like, all, like, immediate… like, if he even shows a sign of anything, I’m like, oh, immediately putting him on, like, homeopathic this or whatever, and that’s when to use those things, right? Is, like, at that. Dr. Deb Muth 46:26Right. Shalinibhat 46:26So, like, if we could teach people that, like, you know, the signs of when you’re feeling off, like, and really tune into that, so, like, how do I feel today? Like, what’s norm… what’s my normal, and what’s not, so that they can always catch things really. Dr. Deb Muth 46:41early. Shalinibhat 46:42When you catch things really early, all the amazing things that we have, you know, access to can make such a big difference. It’s when it goes on and on and on and on and on so long that you’re suddenly like, oh my gosh, now what’s wrong with me? And that’s the other thing, is like.That if, again, we could shift the mindset of when something happens to someone, they’re like, the hospital will fix me, the doctor will fix me, something’s wrong with me, you know? Dr. Deb Muth 47:03And then… Shalinibhat 47:04Like, oh, my neck is feeling like this because I XYZ, and now… and you know what? It just needs this. Instead of that, I’m going to take this body that’s kind of not mine and take it to the ER, you know, to fix it. Dr. Deb Muth 47:16written. Shalinibhat 47:17You know, and so that’s, like, yeah, that’s a piece that’s missing, too, that I wish we had. Dr. Deb Muth 47:22Awesome. This has been such a great conversation. Thanks for joining me. Is there any last comments or things you want to share with our audience today? Shalinibhat 47:31Yeah, I mean, you guys can come find me.

On March 1, ferries from Japan's main Island of Honshu to Sado Island (Niigata Prefecture), started running again after their long winter slumber waiting for the frothy Sea of Japan to settle and for calmer winds to set in for reliable crossings. Let's celebrate Spring in Japan with this previous Books on Asia episode with author and travel-writer Angus Waycott who talks about his  8-day walk around Sado Island.  Waycott gives us in-depth accounts of: a mujina (tanuki-worshipping) cult, funa-ema (literally "ship horse pictures"), exile (including those of Zeami and Buddhist priest Nichiren), and the controversy behind the Kinzan gold mine and its "slave labor," all topics that he recorded in his book Sado: Japan's Island in Exile, originally published by Stone Bridge Press in 1996 and re-issued as an e-book by the author 2012 and 2023. Book Description: "Given the choice, no-one ever went to Sado. For more than a thousand years, this island in the Sea of Japan was a place of exile for the deposed, disgraced or just plain distrusted — ex-emperors, aristocrats, poets, priests and convicted criminals alike. This book rediscovers the exiles' island, explores the truth about its notorious gold mine, tracks down a vanishing badger cult, and drops in on the home of super-drummer band Kodo. Along the way, it paints a vivid picture of one of Japan's most intriguing backwaters, now emerging from a long exile of its own." About the Author Angus Waycott is an author and travel writer whose books have been published in the UK, USA, Japan and the Netherlands. He has been the voice of TV news broadcasts, commercials, and award-winning documentaries, voiced "character" parts in game software and anime productions, and worked as a copywriter, publisher, teacher, translator, lighting designer, and staircase builder. His books are Sado: Japan's Isand in Exile, Paper Doors: Japan from Scratch (2012), The Winterborne Journey: along a small crack in the planet (2023), and National Parks of Western Europe (2012).

What if you just picked up the phone and called someone?Today I want to introduce you to Dylan, I had the pleasure of meeting Dylan while in Barcelona and what stood out immediately was the way he reads others, how someones sincerity causes him to press in and share his own, and how that creates space for connections to be made We chat about how curiosity causes growth, how it can at times be motivated by fear, and how seeking ways to learn and grow reminds us how precious life is. We chat about something we both fear, how my response is at times to simply sleep and ignore it and how superstition plays a role for him We chat about how reciprocation impacts connection, how those that show in action and effort that relationships matter, how it impacts the way we hold on to those relationships in our lives. How there have been times when not being invited was hard, but how knowing yourself and not needing to be present in places we aren't thought of is not just ok, but important for our own selfHe shares the joy he has in building something, both business and life with his girlfriend, how he is excited for what lies ahead, and how their creating home in different parts of the world has changed them for the betterDylan is a sincere, gentle, and fun soul, one that will remind you to show up for yourself, to create consistency in your own life in ways that go beyond any career or relationship, and one that will inspire you to look to what you want to do in this life and know just how possible it isSo tune in today and meet Dylan, a human living life in a way that reminds us all just how possible joy, fulfillment, and an ability to be present with those close to us truly isAnd to you Dylan thank you, thank you for taking the time to sit with me and share part of your journey, for the chance to know more of how life has impacted you, for your curiosity about humanity and the person in front of you, for you joy and heart to share life with others. It says something powerful when we make time and show up to connect with others, and I am honored to have had the time to share such a space with you.

Most people assume baptism for the dead has ancient roots—but it didn't even exist in early Mormonism. In this epidsode, we trace the origins of the LDS temple ordinance and compare it to what the Bible really teaches.We'll look at:The Book of Mormon's warning against postmortem salvationJoseph Smith's evolving revelations in the 1840sWhy 1 Corinthians 15:29 is not what the LDS Church claims it isAnd what the Bible says about death, judgment, and salvation⛔ Don't miss why this doctrine is more dangerous than it seems.

So today's episode is ALL about a concept that might sound super depressing at first glance, but is actually one of the most powerful tools we have for emotional growth. I'm talking about encountering futility - yep, that word you probably haven't tossed around since your college philosophy class (if ever)!What Is Futility Anyway?

Kyle Preston is someone who deserves every bit of success he gets. His work ethic is unmatched and to hear his journey and how he has stuck to the plan even when he wasn't getting the rewards was truely inspiring. Having had one of the all time great Super Rugby debuts a few weeks ago scoring 3 tries, it was an opportunity for Kyle to show the world he was as ready as he knew he was. Whether it was doing body weight exercises till tears, kicking and passing at the park by himself for 2-3 a day or avoiding all junk food from a young age, Kyle has definitely made plenty of sacrifices to get his opportunity.Some other parts that stood out for me were..Where this drive for Kyle to train like he does come fromHow he handled non selection for being "too small"How hard the juggling of roofing and chasing the professional rugby dream isWhy he decided to move to the Crusaders over his hometown HurricanesKyle clears the air on who is dad really isAnd heaps more!As you'll hear Kyle is committed to being the best player he can be and its clear that he has a huge future ahead of him.

Jõulude vägi ei seisne üksnes Jeesuse sündimises. Jõulude vägi on see, et Jumal oli rääkinud oma sünnist tuhandeid aastaid varem ja Isand inspireeris prohveteid Tema sünnist kirjutama aastasadu enne Tema sündi. Tema sündimise teeb väeliseks viis, kuidas Ta suri ja üles tõusis — see kõik toimus täpselt nii nagu Isand oli öelnud.     -----     The power of Christmas is not just that Jesus was born. The power of Christmas is that God had spoken of His birth thousands of years before, and prophets were inspired by the Lord to write about his birth hundreds of years before He was born. What makes His birth so powerful, was the way He died and rose again — it all happened just as the Lord said it would happen.

Author and travel-writer Angus Waycott talks about his  8-day walk around Sado Island off Niigata Prefecture in the Japan Sea. He gives us in-depth accounts of: a mujina (tanuki-worshipping) cult, funa-ema (literally "ship horse pictures"), exile (including those of Zeami and Buddhist priest Nichiren), and the controversy behind the Kinzan gold mine and its "slave labor," all topics that he recorded in his book Sado: Japan's Island in Exile, originally published by Stone Bridge Press in 1996 and re-issued as an e-book by the author 2012 and 2023.Book Description: "Given the choice, no-one ever went to Sado. For more than a thousand years, this island in the Sea of Japan was a place of exile for the deposed, disgraced or just plain distrusted — ex-emperors, aristocrats, poets, priests and convicted criminals alike. This book rediscovers the exiles' island, explores the truth about its notorious gold mine, tracks down a vanishing badger cult, and drops in on the home of super-drummer band Kodo. Along the way, it paints a vivid picture of one of Japan's most intriguing backwaters, now emerging from a long exile of its own."About the AuthorAngus Waycott is an author and travel writer whose books have been published in the UK, USA, Japan and the Netherlands. He has been the voice of TV news broadcasts, commercials, and award-winning documentaries, voiced "character" parts in game software and anime productions, and worked as a copywriter, publisher, teacher, translator, lighting designer, and staircase builder. His books are Sado: Japan's Isand in Exile, Paper Doors: Japan from Scratch (2012), The Winterborne Journey: along a small crack in the planet (2023), and National Parks of Western Europe (2012).

Taavet: Alanda ennast Jumala ees ja Ta ülendab sind! Kuigi isegi Taavet ei olnud täiuslik, oli Jumalal tema jaoks plaan. Keegi teine ei näinud tema suurust alguses. Aga tema usu ja julguse tõttu nägid varsti kõik, et Isand oli koos temaga. Hoia oma suhe Isandaga tugev, isegi kui sa vigu teed, ja Jumal saab sind jätkuvalt kasutada!     -----     David: When God looks at you, He looks at the heart, so stay humble! Even though David was not perfect, God had a plan for David. No one else could see greatness in him at first. But because of his faith and courage, soon everyone could see that the Lord was with him. Keep your relationship with the Lord strong, even when you make mistakes, and God will continue to use you!

When we were early in our marriage, I often said to Mark, “Sex! I could go the rest of my life without it!” And he totally believed me. True story! Needless to say, we had all kinds of challenges in that area of our marriage, and eventually, we sought out sex therapy. And it was a game-changer for us!It's no secret that sex is an important part of any marriage, but we are often hard-pressed to talk about it honestly with one another. It can be hard to find Christian resources to dig into this somewhat taboo topic, and yet it is one of the areas that can drastically impact your marriage for the better!Today, we are talking about how to get a different perspective on sex. Helping us do that is Shaunti Feldhahn and Dr. Michael Sytsma. They are the authors of a new book called Secrets of Sex & Marriage: 8 Surprises That Make All the Difference. Shaunti is a bestselling author, social researcher, speaker, and has a graduate degree from Harvard. She uses her analytical background to help relationships thrive. And Dr. Michael Sytsma is an ordained minister, licensed professional counselor, Certified Sex Therapist, professor, and national speaker.In this episode, you'll hear:How they collected information about sex and marriagesThe two primary ways desire worksWhat the true gatekeeper to having more sex isAnd more!I pray this is exactly what you are needing to hear today!Show Notes: https://jillsavage.org/feldhahn-sytsma-131

Sina oled see, keda Jumal armastab. Hea uudis kõigile on see, et Jeesus, meie Messia, meie Päästja ja Isand on tulnud. Ta tuli, et päästa sind sinu pattudest. Sa ei pea olema talle väärtuslik, et ta sind armastaks, aga Tema tingimusteta armastus on see, mis teeb sind väärtuslikuks ja eriliseks. Ta tuli sinu pärast, sest Ta armastab sind ja sa oled tema jaoks oluline.     -----     You are the one God loves. The good news for everyone is that Jesus has come, our Messiah, our Savior, and Lord. He came to save you from your sins. You do not need to be valuable for Him to love you, but His unconditional love is what makes you valuable and special. He came for you, because you are loved, and you matter to Him.

I apologize that it has been nearly a month since my re-introduction post and Episode 101. I have been overwhelmed with thoughts, ideas, tangents, trailheads, and rabbit holes regarding this new direction for my blog/podcast/and YouTube channel. In this Episode, and over the next 4-5 I will start to unravel this rats' nest into what I hope to be an interesting adventure.An acid test is a generic or colloquial term to refer to an assessment of value. Often, it is referencing something like a pH indicator test, where an acidic substance will turn color when the indicator is added, and an alkaline substance will not.Many may also know of the "Electric KoolAid Acid Test", a book by Ken Kesey that describes the adventures of the Merry Pranksters when the new drug LSD leaked out of the controlled labs and spilled out into the streets of San Francisco. In the last Episode I talked a bit about this and got a few things wrong that I correct this week.My point in using the term Acid Test is not to take LSD (though I am curious about having a new psychedelic experience) but to reference another acid: Deoxyribonucleic acid, to be specific. Or DNA.I intend to use DNA as a proxy representative measure of Nature and pose the question of whether Nature can inform us about life's Big Questions. Specifically, I wonder if we can use Nature to inform The meaning of lifeWhy we are hereWhat our purpose isAnd as a measure of how well we are doing as a species on planet Earth.It will take me 4-5 Episodes to unload, but I hope you will come along with me on the journey. You can subscribe to my podcast on all the big podcasts hosts and the YouTube channel, of course.

Meie vereleping Jumalaga tähendab, et Ta teeb rohkem kui see, mida Ta meil teha palub. Läbi Jeesuse vere on meil juurdepääs kõigile tõotustele ja Aabrahami õnnistusele. Astu välja usus ja ole Jumalale sõnakuulelik. Isegi kui me ei tea, kuidas Isand meid õnnistab, teame, et Ta seda teeb — nii ka meie võime...     -----     Our blood covenant with God means that He will do more than what He asks of us.  Through the blood of Jesus, we have access to all the promises and blessings of Abraham.  So step out in faith and obey God.  Even though we do not know how the Lord will bless us, we know He will — so we can…

The NFL Show Episode 31 - Out Now This week on ‘The Huddle' on we tackle the Denver Broncos, and their difficulties within the management of the team In ‘The Match' we discuss Younghoe Koo and Mason Crosby and debate who the best kicker isAnd to finish off the show we have ‘Rapid Fire', we discuss which team has the best offence in the league right now ~ Alex, Dan, Stacey, Bec

Here's the final instalment in the little series I've been running on faith, love and hope, as the essential nature of the Christian life. So far we've had:* why ‘these three' are so important, and why we sometimes neglect them* ‘faith' as the foundation of Christian living* the two kinds of love, and what Christian love really isAnd now we come to hope …Hope feels a bit like a third wheel in the Big Three Christian virtues.We all appreciate the foundational importance of faith as trust in God and his Son and his promise. The Christian life starts with us gratefully grabbing hold of God and his promise in Christ. Faith is our trusting, outstretched hand that grabs hold of the Lifesaver's hand, and is drawn out of the waters of death into a new life.Love is the basic character of that new life. Faith sets free from the darkened mind of our inwardness and pride. The lights go on in our brain, and we see the goodness of God and through him the goodness of all that he's given us to love—including most especially the people around us. Love summarizes not only our ongoing relationship with God, but our essential stance towards everyone and everything in our world.But what about hope? Would we miss it, if it wasn't in the Big Three?I suspect many contemporary Christians wouldn't particularly. And I suspect that this is because we under-appreciate just how future-focused the Christian gospel is. We tend to see the gospel as mainly about the forgiveness and salvation that we receive now by faith; and the blessed new life we start living now in love.Which of course is true.But it's only half true—or should I say two-thirds true. What we receive by faith now and live out in love now is a guaranteed place in God's future. It's a faith and love that are exercised in hope.Many Christians don't grasp this. Nor did everyone in New Testament times.When Paul wrote to the Ephesians, the thing he wanted them to really grasp—to have the eyes of their hearts opened up to see—was just how extraordinary their future was. He wanted them to understand the ‘hope' that awaited them, and to live accordingly. If I can paraphrase the rather complicated paragraph in Eph 1:11-22, Paul says something like this:By being ‘in Christ', we Jewish believers (who were the first to believe in Jesus) have become what God destined us to be—his very own possession, the people whom he will gather around his Son for all eternity. And it's even more extraordinary, because it's now become clear that his eternal plan was always to include you Gentiles in this as well. That age-old plan of God has now come to fruition—because when you heard the gospel that came to you, and trusted in Jesus Christ, you too became united with him, and therefore with all of us as well. You too are now redeemed. You too are now part of the fellowship of love that we ‘saints' all share in Christ. And you too have received the Holy Spirit as the guarantee and downpayment of the inheritance that is to come, when God finally makes us his own for all eternity.But if there's one thing that I would pray for you, it's that you would come to appreciate just how massive and glorious and mind-blowing that future hope is—the one that you now share with all of us. I pray that God would open up your heart to see and know and grasp and long for what lies in store for all of us, because of our union with the majestic risen Lord of all, Jesus Christ.Or words to that effect. He wants them to lean into their future—to grasp it, and understand it, and long for it, because that's what the gospel is about. It's the guaranteed promise of having a place in the eternal kingdom of Jesus Christ.The logic of the first chapter of Colossians is much the same (it's funny how often Colossians and Ephesians line up). Col 1:3-5 speaks of a gospel that came to them, that spoke of a hope laid up for them in heaven—a gospel that they trusted and that gave them a new love for all ‘the saints' (probably, again, the original Jewish believers that they have now joined up with in Christ). In 1:9f., Paul then prays that their spiritual wisdom and understanding would grow so that (among other things) they would endure with patience and joy until they receive the glorious inheritance that they have been qualified for—that inheritance being a place (with all the saints) in the eternal kingdom of the risen supreme Son, Jesus Christ.Paul prays this way because the more they grasp and understand the glories of the coming kingdom of his beloved Son, and their place in it, the more they will endure now with patience, joy and godly living. When Paul gets down to what godly living means in chapter 3, he continues along the same line of thought. You're already crucified and raised with Christ, he says. Your life is with him. Your future is with him, and that will one day be made clear to all. So set your hearts and minds there, on Jesus Christ and your eternal future with him, and as a consequence put to death everything that belongs to this current earthly age (3:1-5). In light of what is to come, get rid of the vices of the earthly now, and put on instead the virtues of the heavenly then—the ultimate of which is love (Col 3:14).In other words, the gospel announces the extraordinary future of the crucified and risen King, Jesus Christ, and invites and calls everyone to enter his kingdom, and to live now as kingdom citizens. This is the sense in which the gospel offers a future ‘hope'—a ‘living hope' as Peter calls it, because it is essentially the expectation of one day living and reigning with the living, reigning Jesus Christ (1 Pet 1:3f.). It's the ‘hope of righteousness'—of standing justified and blameless before God on that great future day, because we trust in Christ Jesus (Gal 5:5); it's the ‘blessed hope', the appearing of our great and Saviour Jesus Christ (Tit 2:13).We can sometimes get confused about hope, because it has two senses—and perhaps you've already noticed this in some of the verses I've been quoting. ‘Hope' sometimes describes the thing in the future that I'm waiting for—like the “blessed hope” of Jesus' return (in Titus 2), or the “hope of righteousness” that we are waiting for (in Gal 5:5).But the noun ‘hope' also often describes my present experience of waiting for it (as does the verb ‘to hope'). Suffering breeds endurance which breeds character which breeds hope—a confident waiting for what will be ours, a hopeful waiting and expectation that won't be disappointed because God has already demonstrated his love for us by justifying his enemies now by the blood of Christ (Rom 5:2-11).It's in this second sense that ‘hope' is one of the cardinal virtues of the Christian life. Hope is something we do and experience in response to the gospel (like having faith, or loving others). In response to the gospel, we wait and expect and long to receive the inheritance that is stored up for us. We hope.Hope flows out of faith. Faith grabs hold of the truths of the gospel and trusts them—Jesus is the crucified and risen Lord; we are justified now by his blood; we are raised up with him now in the heavenlies. Yes, I believe and trust in these things.Hope is the necessary consequence of that trust or conviction. It is the patient, joyful longing and waiting for the promised inheritance in Christ to arrive.Here's one last NT example that illustrates the connection. It's seen in the Thessalonian response to the gospel (recounted by Paul in 1 Thess 1). The Thessalonians heard the word of God about his Son, the saving, reigning Lord Jesus Christ. They trusted this word with full conviction and joy by the work of the Holy Spirit, so much so that their faith was famous everywhere. It was famous because everyone saw how they turned away from their idols and began a new life, of love and service of the true and living God. And how they waited, even in the midst of affliction, with a joyful steadfastness of hope, for Jesus to come from heaven, to rescue them from the wrath to come.This experience of confidently waiting and longing for the glorious future that we are guaranteed to inherit—this is the sense in which ‘hope' is one of the three great Christian virtues.We enter the Christian life through the door of faith; it's a new life of love for God and for others; but it is an inescapably future-oriented life of hope. It stretches out like a road before us, with a glorious inheritance at the end of it. That forward lean, that keeps its eye on the glorious future that the gospel promises, that strains towards it, that seeks to live now in light of it, that joyfully endures suffering in the meantime—that's hope.When our Christian lives lack hope, they stop leaning forward and become overpowered by the present.The sufferings of the present dumbfound us and dismay us. We don't see them as part of a future-oriented plan that builds endurance and character and hope, but as catastrophic interruptions to the blessed life of now. When hope is weak, we respond badly to suffering and trials—we either descend into bitterness, doubt and despair, or else we try to wish our troubles away by insisting that they should not be part of our experience now (which is what the prosperity gospel in all its forms essentially does).But it's not only suffering and troubles. When we lack hope, the goods and blessings of the present are also a problem for us. They dazzle and distract us. We forget who we are and where we're going. We become obsessed with the comforts and possibilities of now, and lose sight of the infinitely greater joys and glories of then.I suggested at the beginning that many people today don't grasp how significant hope is as one of the three pillars of the Christian life. Our difficulties in dealing with both suffering and blessing are symptoms of this.Let us keep teaching and reminding each other to hope in the glorious future that the gospel promises, and keep praying that God would open the eyes of our hearts to know it.PSI've finished each of these little pieces on the faith and love and hope with a strong sense of how brief and inadequate they are. In the case of hope, an excellent way to explore the ideas further would be via Bryson Smith's fine little book, Hope (subtitled ‘The best is yet to come'). And in a useful coincidence—and yes it really is a coincidence!—the good people at Matthias Media are offering 20% off that book (and a bunch of others) at the moment. Grab a copy or three.

His name is Trevor James or also known as "The Food Ranger," who is a Canadian-born food blogger. I first stumbled upon his YouTube Channel a year ago when he was featuring the street food of Chongqing. I guess it was natural for me to be interested in his content because I'm Chinese, and he was featuring our food culture, but I was completely stunned when he spoke our language eloquently. I kid you not, I was blown away by how articulate he was, and on that instant, I rushed to Google and learned that in 2014, he moved to Chengdu where his YouTube Channel, The Food Ranger, was born and heavily influenced. A year later in Turkey, he met the love of his life who is a fellow Chinese, and knowing this fascinated me even more, I guess I find it rare to see a foreigner marry a Chinese, let alone speak one of the most challenging languages to learn. Other than that, I must say that his YouTube content is undoubtedly engrossing as even the videos that were captured in other countries show how exquisite and diverse our culture is. With this, I'd say that I'm a fan and, I'm definitely hoping to meet him someday.

 Paul Dallaghan has a yoga retreat that I can only describe as the Richard Branson's Isand for yoga...  Any yoga "real thing" you'd like is there at his place in Ko Samui, Thailand (I've been to the place twice). For example: ayurvedic treatments, infrared saunas, pool, steaming showers, excellent food, exceptional yoga and pranayama instruction and amazingly beautiful accommodations by the ocean... And he is one of the most humble people I know. What We Talked About He drops a bomb on me. I get news about his life right off the start which I did not know. Paul does NOT get jet lag... and he gives tips on how to avoid it as much as possible His start in yoga in New York after business school Since he got clear that yoga was his thing, doubts melted away and he felt a surrendering come over him. Paul is one of ONLY two students of pranayama and yoga master Tiwariji (of the Kayvalyadhama Institute in India)  we talk about it and Paul says it all happened very naturally... We talk about how he met him One thing to notice is that every time he started building the beautiful retreat centers, he had NO money. How the amazing yoga retreat he maintains in Ko Samui Thailand came to be in a very organic way The daily contemplation practice that Paul does in 4 steps, to prepare for the day and practice And how this practice continues to be very useful and helpful for him after more than decade of practice Paul says:  This practice comes from a place where we acknowledge that: "I need help because I don't know anything... And then there is life... And dealing with it... And that is why we ask for help" The Gayatri Mantra and how it helps on clarity He proposes we could all meet together in 20 years and see how the practices helped each of us Paul notices as he sees students around the world a lot of tension in the upper part of the belly and why this is What took Paul a long time to understand...

Altucher:   Hello, everyone. Welcome to The Yoga Podcast. I am over the moon to have this guest with me because I've been looking for him for over, I'm gonna say, seven to eight months, and he's just so busy, but I have Paul Dallaghan. He is the co-founder with his wife, Jutima, of Yoga Thailand and Samahita Wellness – Paul Dallaghan:         Ex-wife. Claudia A. Altucher:   Excuse me? Paul Dallaghan:         That's ex-wife. Claudia A. Altucher:   Oh, I didn't know. I'm sorry to hear. Paul Dallaghan:         [Laughs] Nothing to be sorry about, but yeah, go ahead. Claudia A. Altucher:   Oh, okay. So that's news, I guess. Last December, CNN named them as one of the top ten wellness resorts in Asia. He has been trained personally in a one-on-one capacity with Sri O.P. Tiwari, a true yogi master, master of pranayama, and head of the Yoga Institute Kaivalyadhama in India. And amazingly enough, Paul was also trained in advanced asana practice with the great Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, who's the man himself, the founder of the Ashtanga Yoga Vinyasa system as we know it. Both centers – I had the opportunity to visit it twice in the beautiful island of Koh Samui, and he is also, at the moment, on top of all of this and having two children, he has been taken by the Emory University in Atlanta in the USA in the field of biological anthropology, and he's following a Ph.D. program, bringing the yogic practices and philosophy to the scientific field. Paul, welcome. So grateful to have you on the podcast. Paul Dallaghan:         Yeah, thank you, Claudia. Claudia A. Altucher:   So it is 3:38. I guess there have been major changes in your life. I know you just returned from a teacher training in Thailand for a full month. Are you still in Koh Samui time or are you in Atlanta time? Paul Dallaghan:         I'm in Atlanta time. Claudia A. Altucher:   Yeah? You've totally recovered from jetlag, no problem? Paul Dallaghan:         Well, I'm in – I never – naturally, there's a certain amount of drag that goes with the flight, but I find that it's not that big of an issue, and especially, I suppose, when you just kinda regulate yourself or maybe some of the benefit of the breath practice, I think, helps a lot. I mean, I once asked my own teacher, Tiwari G., who had just flown back from Europe to India, I said, "How are things? Any jetlag?" And he said, "What jetlag?" And this is him at 80 years of age, and he said, "What jetlag? If you do the practices, that doesn't really bother you." Now, I'm not saying that, "Oh, this magical thing and everything goes away," but rather, that a certain, I suppose, respect in working with our own natural rhythms, our own internal clock, and – if you can kind of manage the length and the detail of the flight, along with how much and when you're eating, along with when you go to bed, and your own kind of rhythmic, internal setting, which you can kind of play with a lot just via the breath, then I think jetlag is way less. In my case, I feel its presence, but it's sort of minimal. Claudia A. Altucher:   That's very interesting, 'cause I remember in 2009, you gave us sort of like a – somewhat of some suggestions to avoid the jetlag, and you suggested, "Eat before, a healthy dinner, like three or four hours before; don't eat when you're in the airport, and try to relax and move the body, and then in the morning, if you want – " and you said, "Start singing some mantras and – " [laughs] – and it was funny because you looked around like, "What would be the reaction of other passengers if you started singing mantras and do some pranayama?" – all of which I tried, and none of which worked, and it probably is because I haven't been practicing 13 years nonstop like you have, so it didn't work for me. Paul Dallaghan:         Yeah, I mean, I don't know how or what you did, so – but you know, I think the biggest thing is eating, and how long the flight is and when and how much you eat is a big factor. I mean, a lotta people get on the plane and it's around midnight and the time they get on, and then they're given the plate of food and they eat it, and – which they wouldn't be doing if they were just normally at home or whatever, you know? So avoiding those kinda little mishaps can help a lot. The rest, if you're doing any mantra singing, do that in your head, obviously. Claudia A. Altucher:   Right, yes. [Laughs] Paul Dallaghan:         And that's up to any individual for what they wanna get into, their preference, you know? Personally, I like to relax and watch a movie, you know? But usually, there's work to do. Claudia A. Altucher:   Right. So you started – you discovered, you say, yoga in 1995 in New York City, and you were on course to become an actor? Paul Dallaghan:         No, I had a academic background in economics and business, and I had done a bit of work in that after graduating in Europe, and I came interviewing on Wall Street, but something other, shall we say, was calling me. I wasn't that interested in getting a job, per se. You know, 23, 24, I felt, "Well, there's other things in my heart, and some of them just require exploration, and some, I can't put a finger on or express," but given a space and given a kind of a freedom, which is what I felt New York embodied and which is why I wanted to be there was to pull off the tie, quite literally, and explore. And one of the things I was interested in was the expression that might come through acting, et cetera, and so I went in and out of that over a couple of years there, and in the sense, sort of satisfied that urge or interest, but at the same time, the word "yoga" came into my vocabulary. When maybe I should've been looking at The New York Times help wanted section, instead, I was looking at obscure pages, say, on The Village Voice or whatever, and out of there popped the word "yoga" and my curiosity and so on from there. Claudia A. Altucher:   And so then you began a – it happened kind of fast because you began teaching in New York in 1998, so I guess – and you started with Sivananda, you had mentioned, I think, and had some explorations in that time? Paul Dallaghan:         Well, the first yoga session I ever took was Sivananda, but I also had a – got a job in a restaurant in the East Village, and I found a room in the top floor of that same building, but in between me and the restaurant was a small, young Jivamukti yoga studio. Claudia A. Altucher:   Wow. Paul Dallaghan:         So I used to have a key to the studio to go to my room, and – it just turned out, you know? So I sort of found myself, without any prior intention, in a sort of a yoga world zone. And early on, I got sort of a mental message, "Oh, you should teach yoga," but then the slightly erroneous, but rational side, said, "No, you've got other things to do." Claudia A. Altucher:   But when you say you got a message, what do you mean? You got a message from the universe? Did you read it in a billboard? How did that message come in? Paul Dallaghan:         [Laughs] Must've been a text message back in 1996. Oh, they didn't have text messages back in 1996. Claudia A. Altucher:   Right. [Laughs] Paul Dallaghan:         What I mean is you just get – I don't wanna go too much into that, but you just get sort of inner insights – or in this sense, it literally was an inner kind of voice or message that I chose to ignore until I couldn't ignore it after a few years – Claudia A. Altucher:   Well, no, once it puts the Jivamukti studio before your – between your bedroom and the world, it becomes kind of a – I mean, the mythology of that image is just enormous. [Laughs] Paul Dallaghan:         Yeah, but I – I was still intent – and I suppose I had to explore other aspects of my character or desire and ambitions, and they took a couple of years not so much to get satisfied, but to get extracted and somewhat beaten, even, so that I kind of realized what really speaks to me or interests me is, you know, to embody it in a yogic path, but it is sort of working within, working on the inside, working and – you know, via, I suppose, these practices on who I am, and I said, "Okay, let's go with life that way." Claudia A. Altucher:   So that's very interesting to me. So you – because you were very young, and to have that realization at such a young age, "Okay, let's go with what life takes – is sort of guiding me to do," is a little bit of a blessing. Paul Dallaghan:         Yes, but at that age, you don't think you're very young, you know? [Inaudible due to crosstalk] If you're 26, you don't think you're young. You're like, "Well, shouldn't I have done stuff already?" And that was part of my problem before that. It was like, "Well, I'm supposed to have got into this or done that or made that," and that's what was the kind of trajectory coming out of a academic and university setting, and that path, in itself, had to unravel. And if anything, it wasn't – there's no sheer intelligence or genius on my part; it was more just, "Let me explore and take a risk," and in the process, it was kind of frustrating or a little bit challenging to, I suppose, ego and the mental side, but on the other side, it was exciting to just sort of be free and look at things. And within that, I suppose, because being willing to explore within that came a realization, which if you look at a life, you could say it came early, but I mean, I could almost say, "Well, why didn't it happen at 18 instead of 26?" Claudia A. Altucher:   Right, yeah, the mind can always complain. Paul Dallaghan:         Not – no, I wouldn't call it complaining, but it's more like the process of going through things is important to the process, you know? It's important to the discovery, to the understanding. So if you don't allow the process to go through, then it's always something that's one step away or at a distance or – so it's not just the, "Oh," you wake up at 18 or 48, you know, and there it is; it's rather that either life has kicked us into some difficulty or challenge or something inside is unsettled or dissatisfied or wants to search and look, and that actual process is the benefit in and of itself and the kind of revealing factor. So whenever that comes up for – for me, you could say it was coming up early. It wasn't – the thoughts were there as a college student, but you're in kind of a nice, boxed world. You step out of that and then you're in the world, and so then those thoughts really came up, you know? "Okay, I can have a job, but that seems too easy," you know? Or it doesn't seem – "It won't satisfy me, so what else is there?" is the way my mind was looking at things at, I suppose, 24. Click HERE for the full Transcript
