Send us a textWhat happens when we move beyond the limits of the medical model and begin listening to the body's wisdom?In this inspiring first episode of our BioEnergetic Wellness Trilogy, Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes two pioneering voices — Kate Montgomery and Denise Cambiotti — to explore how simple, energy-based techniques can transform pain, restore function, and open the door to vibrant living.Most people discover energy medicine only after they've tried everything else — when the medical system has no more answers. But what if true healing comes not from fixing symptoms, but from reconnecting with the body, mind, and spirit as one intelligent, living system?Kate and Denise share their decades of experience using bioenergetic wellness tools, muscle monitoring, and frequency-based healing to help people shift pain, tension, and emotional blocks in just minutes. Their stories reveal that these techniques aren't “woo woo” — they're rooted in the physics, biophysics, and quantum principles of how energy flows through and around us.As we sip Just Chill'n tea — a calming blend of black tea, cranberry, and calendula petals from the Cape Breton Tea Company — we explore the spiritual essence of relaxation, grounding, and illumination that parallels the healing journey itself.

In my academic pursuit of a degree in broadcast journalism, I learned the importance of gathering information for a news story. The emphasis focused on the the five w's - purpose being to capture the whole story in the most concise and entertaining or dramatic form possible, using true facts , not speculation. The Goal: to inform the reader with reliable, factual infotmation that have they a full accountability of the fire, the accident, the act of violence etc. They got answers . They were not left wondering what, or where, or who. ******In our spirit life, by contrast and , to the chagrin of so many, we never get the whole story. Rather, we get bits and pieces at a time. As we act in faith, we get a little bit more and a little bit more. For those who don't understand the faith walk this can be quite concerning. These anxious ones need to know all the details. They need to know all of the five w's to their life story. Please be awakened to this reality: that's not going to happen. God reveals these details on a “need to know” basis. So, can I say “Just Chill” and trust your Shepherd to lead you? Even though you may not know “where”,you know “Who”, and thats enough. Now listen to “The 5 w's..,” by Coach Shelley aka Eld. Michelle. and May your soul be blessed!❤️

My grandson Lawson Cole turned 1 years old this past week, and before I get started can we all just address the elephant in the room...."Grandson?"...I know, right?!   It doesn't really make sense for me to have a grandson considering how young I look and feel.  But somehow it happened and I love it!!   Anyway...now that I've gotten that off my chest...let's talk about some serious and important life lessons.   As I watch and observe this little Rockstar Lawson...I have literally learned some valuable and insanely helpful lessons about life and I want to share 3 of these lessons with you in a quick post.   1-STOP WORRYING ABOUT WHAT EVERYONE THINKS ABOUT YOU   As you can tell Lawson doesn't give it a second thought.  I mean who doesn't love that hair.  lol   I know you are thinking, but George, he is 1 years old.  I hear you, but think about it.... ...all of our programming that has shaped our beliefs, philosophies in life and our behaviors are all caused at a young age and continue to work against us as we get older.    So it doesn't really make the lesson any less important.  JUST STOP IT!   Stop worrying about how you look, how you appear, and what people think about you.   Here's a crazy thought you have to eventually accept...Nobody cares how you look.  They are too worried about how they look and how they are perceived.  Just stop spending energy on stupid stuff.  Focus on spending your time and attention on what really matters, like Your Family, Your Business, Your Present Moment Memories you are creating.   Life is too short to get caught up in what other people think...PERIOD!!   2- JUST CHILL!!   Lawson is a pretty chill little kids.  His brothers on the other hand are like little tornadoes that tear up the surrounding l12 foot radius of everything their path).  Well, not literally, but sort, definitely, some of the time.  lol   Lawson will sit on the floor in the middle of the chaos and just take it all in and when he sees something he wants he just goes and gets it.  It's that simple for him.   I think in life sometime we let our ENVIRONMENT, PEOPLE AROUND US, and OUR CIRCUMSTANCES completely affect and shape how we Behave, React, or even Deal with events in our lives.   Learn to just sit back and take in the craziness and not let it AFFECT you so much or CHANGE how you live your life.  March to the beat of your own drum.  Do what you want.  Find ways to create peace of mind so that you don't get thrown off course.    You cannot control the bat shit crazy people around you (and there are a ton), but you can certainly choose how you are going to react to them.    3- LEARN TO HAVE FUN & ENJOY LIFE!!   My daughter Megan does an awesome job of making sure her boys are enjoying life, loved unconditionally, and given the time and attention they need.  Throwing a World Tour Rock Star birthday party is just one example.  Megan had all kinds of stuff she was dealing with and all kinds of problems, circumstances and things that she had to "deal with" to make sure he had an awesome birthday.    And guess what, Lawson wasn't caught up in all the events, stress, and circumstances.  he just enjoyed his little party...smashing cake, eating candy, opening gifts and enjoying the crazy and wild people surrounding him.    Believe me...I know that most 1 year olds are "oblivious" to the real world, but how often do we allow ourselves to get caught in the the drama of the past or the stress of the future only to MISS OUT ON THE PRESENT MOMENT.   I am not saying that we can be as innocent or "oblivious" as a little child, but we can certainly find times that we can just SET ASIDE our problems and ENJOY A LITTLE BIT OF LIFE in the PRESENT MOMENT.   And when you learn to enjoy life a little, it helps you deal with life even better.   Learn to get grounded in the moment and CREATE A FEW MEMORIES. Enjoy the life that you are living at times because there is plenty of time for stress, work and priorities.   Oh and one more thing I like to say a lot on my Podcast...   DON'T LET YOUR VISION OF THE FUTURE ROB YOU OF THE JOY IN THE PRESENT.   Too many of us have listened to that stupid phrase..."grind now so you don't have to tomorrow"...I've done that most of my life and its a bunch of crap.  I believe you can have BOTH.   Work Hard, Play Hard and Learn to Have a little Fun!   Anyway, I hope you learn a few lessons from Lawson like I did and I'll post a few pics of the crazy birthday party so check out my next post.  Have a great day.  G
