In this week’s episode Anna & Anna have an important conversation with Dr. Lee Beers about Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES), and the ways in which mental health is linked with other health issues. Dr. Beers is a Professor of Pediatrics, and the Medical Director for Community Health and Advocacy at Children’s National Hospital. Dr. Beers was also selected by peers in 2019 to serve as the president of the American Academy of Pediatrics president in 2021. We discuss: How children who experience ACES are at risk for long-term chronic health conditions The link between eating disorders and ACES The idea that a higher BMI may be a confounding factor in poor health outcomes, rather than a cause — how treating the trauma, rather than focusing on weight, could be far more productive What dietitians and other health professionals should know about trauma informed care The harm of stigmatizing children with higher BMI Where the field of pediatrics is headed in terms of health promotion The importance of addressing mental and/or behavioral health concerns and improving access to quality care Links: Dr. Lee Beers Sunny Side Up Nutrition Podcast Pinney Davenport Nutrition Lutz, Alexander & Associates Nutrition Therapy

In this week's information-packed episode, Brigitte interviews Dr. Will Cole about the functional medicine approach to autism. Dr. Will Cole, IFMCP, DNM, DC, is a leading functional medicine expert who consults people around the world via webcam and locally in Pittsburgh. Named one of the top 50 functional medicine and integrative doctors in the nation, Dr. Cole specializes in clinically investigating underlying factors of chronic disease and customizing a functional medicine approach for thyroid issues, autoimmune conditions, hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, and brain problems. He is the bestselling author of Ketotarian and The Inflammation Spectrum. Dr. Cole has also cohosted the popular podcasts goodfellas and Keto Talk and will be hosting the new podcast, The Art of Being Well, which launches in early 2021.Dr. Cole grew up in a household where health and wellness and adaptogenic tonics were the norms of the family and he soon went into the field of integrative medicine to further pursue his passion in health and wellness. He explains how functional medicine is different from mainstream medicine in that it combines the best of conventional and alternative medicine where it's strongly evidence-based and at the same time getting to the root cause of the problem. He discusses the alarmingly increasing rate of autism along with conditions like Hashimoto's, autoimmune conditions, digestive disorders, and many more, and believes that there's "genetic epigenetic mismatch" where our genes have not adapted to the fast-changing environment around us, resulting in many dysfunctions we see today. He believes that each patient is unique and requires a highly individualized approach to achieving their optimized health but he also believes that inflammation is the commonality in most cases. He talks about the connection between gut inflammation and the dysfunction of the brain and reveals the 4 foods that are most likely to disrupt your child's microbiome and raise inflammation in their brain. He also talks about the importance of intuition and says to not let your intuition be delegitimized even by your doctors when it comes to your health and your child's health. Furthermore, he gently reminds moms to take good care of themselves because they simply cannot afford not to and they can only give what they have.

In this week's episode, Brigitte Shipman interviews Dr. Michelle Trias to talk about the importance of self-care for all mothers but especially for autism moms. Dr. Michelle Trias is a graduate from the University of Central Florida and completed her Doctorate in traditional naturopathy from the New Eden School of Natural Health and Herbal studies. She is passionate about helping people find their way back to health through natural foods and herbs. Dr. Michelle defines self-care as taking steps each day to help your mind, body, and spirit so that you feel regenerated and rejuvenated and ready to take on the next part of the day. She tells how easy it is for autism moms to end up in a place of upset and resentment because they keep giving to other people without getting their own cup refilled--they keep giving from a depleted place.She says that your ability to be present in the moment is hampered unless you spent time loving yourself doing self-care on a regular basis. She shares her own experience with her children when she lacked patience and understanding because her self-care tank was empty. She makes sure to fill her own cup daily so that she is able to have more patience and understanding in difficult situations. "More I love myself, the more patience, the more understanding I have," Dr. Michelle says. She urges autism moms to nurture themselves the way they nurture their children because when there is no love in the tank, there is no love to give and the person who is ultimately responsible for the love that is in their cup is them. She offers tips on how to implement self-care even when you think you don't have time and what foods to eat to relieve stress and anxiety.She reminds moms that they are the heartbeat of their house and what happens to them will affect everyone else in every way, emotionally and physically.

TITLE How to Identify a Healthy Relationship GUEST Lindsay Gibson, PsyD. EPISODE OVERVIEW Dr. Lindsay Gibson, author of Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents describes healthy relationships look like, and she identifies characteristics of a person who is capable of having a healthy relationship. She talks about what to look for at the beginning of a relationship. She also talks about deal breakers and red flags, and why people who had unhappy childhoods tend to get involved with difficult partners. She explains why it can be hard to end a relationship that isn’t working.  HIGHLIGHTS Emotional Immaturity—These people respond like young children or adolescents.  They lack empathy and are not able to see things from another’s point of view.  They lack the ability to self-regulate and they are NOT self-reflective.  They have a strong sense of self, but not of others.  There may be attachment injuries, and a secure attachment is essential to develop a healthy sense of self. What are the elements of a healthy relationship? The relationship supports and builds the energy and individuality of each person One has the ability to be empathic—you can imagine your internal experience and the internal experience of the other One is interested in their partner, their well-being, they enjoy their partner’s success and are supportive One is willing to learn One keeps it interesting What are some personality characteristics of a person who is capable of a healthy relationship? One is sensitive and can tune in to the other person One’s personality is complex enough to support individuality (the partner doesn’t have to think, believe, act, do things exactly like the other person to make them feel secure) One automatically takes the other person into account One is able to take turns with problem-solving, compromise One is creative and resilient One knows their own needs and preference and can voice them One can tolerate conflict One can be vulnerable  One can manage having competing needs Mature coping mechanisms like humor, or asking for support Why are some people aware of their unhappy childhoods, yet they find themselves involved with difficult people in their adult relationships? HSPs have great insight and great memories HSPs are altruistic and function at a high level If a person doesn’t do the emotional work to heal from childhood, they recognize the patterns, but continue to engage in relationships/patterns that don’t work You must have the emotional experience of what happened to you in childhood When one hasn’t done the emotional work, one doesn’t have the gut feeling or instinct that informs one that this isn’t healthy What signs should a person look for at the beginning of a relationship in order to assess its potential for becoming a healthy relationship? One feels fully seen One is even tempered One is able to own and accept their mistakes One has the ability to apologize and make amends One has the capacity to receive One is enjoyable, playful, has a sense of humor There is a realistic and reliable foundation One can work with reality and they try and understand what’s going on One can think and feel at the same time (one’s brain doesn’t get hijacked with emotion) One can be reasoned with One is respectful of boundaries—if you set a boundary, one might be curious about it (but not defensive or try and push the boundary) One doesn’t psychoanalyze or label or call names (sensitive, overreacting, emotional, unreliable, etc.) One can talk from a feeling place  One won’t tell you how you should be feelings One can wait and be patient One can handle stress well (if you see impatience and irritability in the beginning BEWARE!) What are the biggest red flags that indicate that you might be getting involved with an Emotionally Immature Person? You feel like you can’t completely be yourself Not opening up, not completely at ease, watching yourself Your thoughts are scrambled You don’t think as clearly or concisely The person has a history of conflictual relationships, and tends to see themselves as a victim or a rescuer What are deal breakers in any close relationship?  If you’re doing a lot of the work, and you can’t communicate your feelings, and you don’t feel safe or confident with the other person The other person is constantly telling you that you’re the problem Why is it difficult to end a difficult relationship? We bond with others for a sense of survival.  It’s familiar and there is emotional intensity (this isn’t necessarily a positive attribute) The more emotional stimulation (even if it’s negative—fighting, abuse), the tighter the bonding GUEST BIO Lindsay Gibson, PsyD. has been a licensed clinical psychologist for over thirty years and specializes in individual adult psychotherapy with adult children of emotionally immature parents. She is the author of three books. Her most recent book Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents remains a #1 Amazon Best Seller. The follow up to this book is Recovering from Emotionally Immature Parents, and the 2nd edition of her first book Who You Were Meant To Be has just been released on Amazon. In the past Dr. Gibson has served as an adjunct assistant professor teaching doctoral psychology students, and she writes a monthly Well-Being column for Tidewater Women magazine in Virginia Beach, VA.

What role does disgust play in our fear of disease?  Why should we be careful about the language used to describe disease?  Dr. Tyler Davis is back to discuss how exotic foods are associated with “otherness." Neophobia (fear of new things) creates stigmas.  Bonus, Michele expresses her feelings about snakes. It's a great start to Season 7! Dr. Tyler Davis is an associate professor of psychological sciences at Texas Tech University, where he directs the Cap Rock Lab. The Cap Rock lab is something that uses functional in neuro imaging to study cognitive neuroscience in categories, categorization, attitudes, and preference. Key points: We need to be careful about the language we use to describe disease because if we are unfamiliar with something there is more chance of misinformation. If people believe a disease, such as Covid-19 originated from an exotic food source it is perceived as more risky and this creates a stigma around the disease and the country of origin. In the United States, we don’t typically eat bats or snake (although some people eat rattlesnakes). We often don’t understand the importance of these animals to the food chain.  For example, bats control malaria by eating insects and are pollinators. People also generalize the perceived risk of exotic foods (or disease) with the people who eat it. Neophobia is the fear of new things. This plays into food bullying as identity-based avoidance technology, such as non-GMO, contributes to fear. Labels like “natural” prey on this fear. To change perceptions we need to focus on the values of the group and how they identify around a fear. Three tips to overcome food bullying: Think about how food relates to your values Check that food claims actually mean what you think they mean. Ask why people want you to believe or identify with the claim.  Don’t assume people are different because they eat differently.

We are excited to be joined on the show today by Dr. Susan Wolver. Dr. Wolver spent ten years serving as a flight surgeon in the military, did her internal medicine residency at VCU, is certified in obesity medicine, and is currently working at a multi-disciplinary practice in Virginia. In this episode, we discuss the mental and dietary components of finding success with low-carb, the emotional aspect of dealing with hunger, the connection between childhood adversity and chronic disease, and the importance of emotional support in achieving success on your diet. For more information, see the links below. Thank you for listening!

We are joined today by a very inspiring doctor, Dr. Philip Ovadia. Dr. Ovadia is a cardiothoracic surgeon and has seen great results using a low-carb dietary intervention with his patients. Having struggled with obesity earlier in his life, he realized that he had to make a change and needed an answer to his weight problem. That answer came in the form of low-carb which he discovered after attending a lecture by Gary Taubes. We discuss the causes of heart disease, the metabolic markers for heart disease, the appropriate time and place for the usage of Statin drugs vs. lifestyle change, and the central role that insulin resistance plays in virtually all chronic disease.  Eighty-eight percent of Americans are metabolically unhealthy. We discuss in this episode how it is vital for the health of our nation’s citizens that doctors, medical professionals, and professionals from other fields work together to address this problem together.

Dr. Eben Alexander spent over 20 years as a renowned academic neurosurgeon, before waking up one morning with horrible back pain. Within 3.5 hours Dr. Alexander had slipped into a coma, that would take him away from this world for 7 days. When Dr. Alexander returned, his ability to regain his knowledge from this world, and the world he had experienced while unconscious, shocked medical professionals and the world alike. Proof Of Heaven with Dr. Eben Alexander The extraordinary world Dr. Alexander experienced within his coma has been the basis for his book, Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon’s Journey into the Afterlife by Dr. Eben Alexander, as well as brought key insights to the mind-body discussion and to our human understanding of the fundamental nature of reality. With his son’s encouragement, Dr. Alexander wrote down his experience in over 20,000 words and dove into other experiences of near-death experiences. What he found was shocking similarities, unexplainable healing, and a passion for sharing information about near-death experiences and other spiritually transformative experiences, and what they teach us about consciousness and the nature of reality. Dismissing Myths Between Consciousness and Reality While traditional science chooses to focus on the materialistic aspect of consciousness, Dr. Alexander’s life-changing experience has brought into clarity the ‘Cloud of Possibility’ and the many fundamental truths of consciousness. Dr. Alexander views near-death experiences as the tip of the consciousness sphere, and act as a way to remind the soul of something that they already know. By awakening yourself to participate in our shared duty to participate in our evolution of consciousness, you can become one with the divine and step into our true interconnectedness. The Infinite Healing Power of Unconditional Love Above all else, Dr. Alexander’s experience showed him the power that unconditional love has to heal and overcome all else. Through the understanding that love is what binds us together, you too can have a spiritually transformative experience and begin to accept the truth of the Universe and your role in it. Nothing is stronger than love, and by dismissing the false thinking of separation and embracing the true healing that comes from self-exploration and looking from within, you can embrace the relationship of our hearts, love, and consciousness. Have you ever had a near-death or transformative experience or known someone who has gone through it? Share your insights with your experience or your belief in love as the ultimate healer with me in the comments on the episode page.   In This Episode Recognizing the disconnection between quantum physics and consciousness (4:40) Learn about the emerging scientific model of ‘Filter Theory’ and how it affects your consciousness (14:34) Recount the amazing and inexplicable events that lead to Dr. Alexander’s Proof Of Heaven and complete recovery (18:40) How to become and embody the love that you are and be in touch with your heart resonance (30:55) The role of love and sound in the healing power of mind-body medicine (39:40)   Key Takeaways The three most important things that you can take away from Dr. Alexanders near-death experience are: Traditional science cannot begin to understand the deep connection between consciousness and the mind-body debate Love can truly conquer all when we are able to accept our role in the creation of an unconditionally supportive world Sound, reincarnation and the spiritual Universe play a massive role in our ability to heal and love one another   Quotes “I think it does resonate, I like to think that it reminds souls of something they know deep down. Because we have all been through this cycling of multiple spiritual realms and into these physical incarnations and this is really just about getting to a deeper wisdom that is closer to the truth about the nature of reality.” (3:35) “I see near-death experiences as really kind of the tip of the sphere, to kind of force us into a much richer interpretation of consciousness and the brain-mind relationship. And this is very refreshing because it leads us away from this kind of simplistic and false materialism that is part of our modern science.” (17:37) “In fact, the best topics that map out our ascendence along this pathway of growth is a compass that leads us to make choices out of love, compassion, acceptance, mercy, and forgiveness. And these are the most direct pathways, these point out the lessons that humanity is challenged to learn in this millennia of our current epoch.” (24:24) “To put this love in perspective was really was more of becoming the love that I am and that we all are.” (30:20) “Each and every one of us can serve as a point of light. We can all come to a higher truth about all of this, realize the power we have to manifest this perfect world, and we can bring it into being. This is not some wishful thinking, pie in the sky kind of idea, but actually something that is a practical part of the awakening that I see coming to this world now.” (38:15)   Links Dr. Eban Alexander's website Follow Dr. Alexander on Facebook | Twitter | YouTube Sacred Acoustics Find all of Dr. Eben Alexander's books here Dr. Eben Alexander's reading list Eternea Find the full show notes for this episode here Keep up with all things Love Is Medicine Follow Razi on Facebook | Instagram

We are excited to be joined on the show this week by Dr. Eric Westman. While working as a VA Doctor, Dr. Westman had the opportunity to witness two of his patients have great success with a low-carb dietary intervention. Following this experience, he began to read books written on low-carb dieting and ended up meeting Dr. Atkins as a result of his research. Since then he has been following a low-carb diet personally, using low-carb to save lives, teaching people about low-carb, and doing research on the uses of low-carb diets. In this episode we discuss the effects of the pervasive messaging of the conventional nutritional position on patients who could benefit from a low-carb intervention, the anxiety surrounding weight-regain, and the notion of ‘one size fits all’ diets.

What if you could see your doctor as much as you wanted and never have to pay a deductible or co-pay? What if your doctor was not paid based on how many patients they see on a given day? This week, Dr. Felecia Sumner joins me to talk about the Direct Primary Care  model of healthcare. It’s the Netflix of Healthcare. You pay a monthly subscription fee and get to see your doctor as much as you need to without dealing with insurance providers. This can be a great thing for stroke survivors and other folks with chronic conditions where you have not only complex needs and more of them than the general population, but you also need a provider who is interested in staying on top of your complex medical history. Bio From Dr. Sumner’s website: https://drfsumner.com/about-me/ Dr. Felecia Sumner is a family medicine physician, national speaker, best-selling author, and wellness strategist dedicated to improving the health and overall wellness of her patients and their communities. She is also the co-founder and Vice President of Synergizers Inc – a health and wellness service company. Dr. Sumner completed her undergraduate work at Saint Joseph’s University and obtained her medical degree from the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine (PCOM). While at PCOM, Dr. Sumner earned the highly coveted Student National Medical Association’s PCOM Member of the Year award. Dr. Sumner is actively involved in community health education and has presented across the country at a number of community, school, and church-related events about healthy lifestyle, nutrition, and disease prevention. Dr. Sumner’s medical philosophy is inclusive of both traditional and alternative therapies and is focused on providing patient education and explaining things in non-technical language. Thus, her patients gain an increased sense of personal management of their own health, and family members are invited to attend appointments. She is particularly interested in medical media and preventive medicine, in addition to women’s health, nutrition and wellness. Of personal note, Dr. Sumner lives in Pennsylvania, with her husband and two young daughters. In her free time, Dr. Sumner enjoys reading, singing, cooking, and spending quality time with her family and friends. Is Racism Real? This is one of the questions Dr. Felecia answers on Instagram and Facebook about race.   Dr. Felecia mentioned the Tuskegee Experiment. You can read more about that here: https://www.cdc.gov/tuskegee/timeline.htm Here’s an article that talks about several books exploring the history of gynecological care in the US and how it started with brutal experiments on enslaved women: https://www.aaihs.org/black-subjectivity-and-the-origins-of-american-gynecology/ It’s August 2020 and protests are going on in Seattle and around the country. Before our interview, I reached out to Dr. Felecia to see if race was something she wanted to talk about on the podcast. She agreed. The medical field, like many has failed many times to take care of folks based on race. Differences in care based on race, gender identity, disability, and more continue. Since disparities in treatment can happen even when most providers mean well, it means there must be an unconscious bias at play. Sharing stories and listening to the stories of others is just one way to address this. The Real Rx The Real Rx is where I first hear Dr. Felecia. I started listening because one of the other co-host is Dr. Kimberly Brown, an Emergency Room physician who was a guest on Strokecast back in episode 40. The Real Rx describes itself as “Real problems. Real talk. Real doctors. Talk to our group of women physicians just like one of your girlfriends. It is like having a virtual house call!” I enjoyed listening to season one, and I learned stuff. It’s a nice balance of the personal and the professional.

Dr. Drew (David Drew Pinsky) is a doctor of internal medicine and addiction specialist who became globally recognized through his appearances on Loveline, Celebrity Rehab, Ellen, Oprah, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and much more. I was fascinated to hear Dr. Drew's expansive knowledge about history and philosophy, and how he applies it to lead a more fulfilling life. We also dug into human attraction and why we're attracted to certain types of people, attachment theory, how he makes time for self-care and growth, why social contracts like marriage are important, and much more. This has been one of my favorite episodes to date, and I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did.

We are happy to be joined on the show today by Dr. Charlene Lichtash who is the co-author (along with Drs. Megan Ramos and Jason Fung) of an amazing case report on diabetes reversal published in the BMJ. In this episode, we discuss the potential of fasting and a ketogenic diet practiced in conjunction to reverse diabetes. In discussing this topic, we delve deeply into the aforementioned case report as well as many relevant individual test cases. What types of people benefit from a marriage of keto and fasting? What types of people see benefits from just fasting or from just eating a ketogenic diet? What is the role of exercise in increasing insulin sensitivity? How does psychology factor into a patient’s success? We discuss these questions and more with Dr. Lichtash in today’s show.  To read Dr. Lichtash’s case report, see the links below… Thanks for listening!

We’ve all heard the argument that animals aren’t useful models for drug development, so take a minute and listen to Dr. Cooper break down the facts on this one and tell us why they are indeed the absolute best model for this and why they are still 100% necessary. Go check out Dr. Cooper’s guest article from a couple years back for Speaking of Research titled, “Predictability and Utility of Animal Models”.Topics discussed in this episode:Dr. Cooper’s extensive background and experiences throughout his education and career.A brief overview of the drug development process and alternatives that are utilized before ever testing a drug in an animal.The ability of animals to successfully predict potential toxicities and safety of a drug before testing it in humans.Whether or not the use of animals for drug development and testing could be skipped altogether, going straight into human testing instead.How a drug obtains approval to move from an animal model into human testing and ultimately on to the market.Notable quotes:“Some people will think about drug development in a particular animal research as if you one run study on one drug, and that gives you all your answers, and that couldn’t be further from the truth.”“The vast majority of people, even if they won’t admit that they’re okay with animal research, they are driving the demand that essentially is there asking us to develop drugs, develop within a certain timeframe, within a certain cost, and with a certain level of safety.”Sign up for the Lab Rat Chat newsletter!https://www.amprogress.org/raising-voices/lab-rat-chat/Resources & Links:Dr. Cooper’s Guest Post: Predictability and Utility of Animal Models (https://speakingofresearch.com/2017/07/25/predictability-and-utility-of-animal-models/)Americans for Medical Progress (https://www.amprogress.org/) PHS Policy on Humane Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (https://olaw.nih.gov/policies-laws/phs-policy.htm) Animal Welfare Act (https://www.nal.usda.gov/awic/animal-welfare-act) All Lab Rat Chat episodes are edited by Audionauts: https://audionauts.pro/ Support the show (https://www.amprogress.org/donate/)

SHOW NOTES My guest this week is Dr. Nicole Beurkens. As a licensed clinical psychologist with advanced degrees in psychology, education, and nutrition, Dr. Nicole Beurkens is the world’s leading holistic child psychologist. She has dedicated her 22+ year career to providing parents with research-based strategies that get to the root of children’s attention, anxiety, mood, and behavior challenges so they can reach their highest potential. She runs a multi-disciplinary evaluation and treatment clinic and is a best-selling author, published researcher, award-winning therapist, and experienced mother of four. Big Ideas One of the best things we can do for our kids is stay grounded ourselves and model that for them. There is often not a “right” or “wrong” choice. It’s important to look at what is best for your family to help you decide. It’s important for kids to have independent time either by themselves or with their siblings. It’s helpful to pay attention to our coping skills and model healthy ones for our family that do not always involve screens. Quotes Dr. Nicole Beurkens: Parents and kids are now facing starting a year in a really different way. And just the uncertainty of that is generating a lot of anxiety and a lot of distress for kids. But I would say even more so for parents. I get asked all the time, “What do we do for the kids? What do we do for the kids?” And the reality of it is it's really how we're dealing with it as parents that sets the tone for how our kids deal with it. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: The first thing is to realize exactly what we're talking about—that the tone that we set as adults, as parents really makes the most difference. If we're able to manage our own emotions and behaviors around this in healthier ways, that really goes a long way to helping kids do that. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: We need to figure out how to keep ourselves more stable and more regulated. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: We need to find some time to ground ourselves and to help ourselves through the feelings and the things that are going on for us. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: It's super healthy and important for kids to have time when an adult is not structuring or generating and initiating activities. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: Please realize you can step back and take some time to do the work catch-up that you need to do, to sit down with a book and a cup of tea for a few minutes, if that is soothing to you, to go out and take that walk, to do the things that help keep you healthy—your kids can go navigate that time by themselves. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: Ultimately what happens is they start to find things to do. And that's really where an increase in creativity and self-generated activity and initiative comes from is when we allow them to have times where they have to figure it out either independently or with their siblings. Audrey Monke: I think part of it is that when both parents work outside the home, I think what they're used to is when the time that they are home, maybe it's dinner time or whatever, it's very concentrated family time. So I think this shift when your kids are always there, maybe that's an issue that people think, “Oh, it's supposed to always be this like full on work.” Dr. Nicole Beurkens: Screens do not always have to be an option for kids and shouldn't always be an option for kids. And in fact, they should have times during the day when they're not options and there's other things they need to do. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: It's so true that very often now for kids their default, if no one is engaging them in something, is just passive screen time kinds of things. So we need to be intentional about setting times and spaces where that's not happening and here's the secret to that: 100% expect they will not like that. And that is okay. It is totally okay. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: It's something I'm seeing in a lot of older teens and young adults now in my practice that they have not learned how to tolerate uncomfortable feelings, how to be with themselves and their own thoughts because their generation has just grown up sort of defaulting to using passive scrolling through social media or, you know, doing things online and on their devices as a way to kind of numb that. And while that works in the short term, it is not a good longterm strategy and it's not a strategy for helping kids grow up to be more resilient, to be emotionally and behaviorally regulated. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: Now you may be on the computer for many hours a day for work related things, but to even be intentional about things like device-free meal, times to be intentional about when I'm doing something with you, playing a game, taking a walk, doing some kind of play with you. I don't have my devices there. To be intentional about your children seeing you doing activities and things where you're taking a break from the devices where they're not part of the picture, seeing you doing things for yourself to relax and engage in self-care without resorting to devices. Those are really important models. And I think those are far more powerful than the things that we tell them about. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: That's the thing we've had conversations with the kids about. Okay, let's think about all the possible scenarios. And let's just kind of think through some plans for that. And I think that's really helpful strategy for parents and kids to be doing. Especially if you have kids at those milestone kinds of situations. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: I think what that does in thinking that through is it just brings that anxiety down because anxiety is all about uncertainty and about things that we can't control. And while we can't control those things, just by thinking through and making some plans and having like a Plan A, a Plan B a Plan C and even just talking through and anticipating how that will feel and how we'll respond to that. That's a really productive way of helping kids process and work through those emotions. Audrey Monke: I think all of us need to be flexible and that's in workplaces, in families, in schools, teachers, everyone, because like you said, everyone's kind of doing the best they can. Audrey Monke: We've all been talking about mindfulness and how important that is, but it's almost like we're being forced now to be aware and totally better with what is going on inside of us. I think when you slow down, all the stuff comes up. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: A lot of our typical coping strategies have been taken away because at least in the United States, a lot of the default coping is to stay busy. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: What are the silver linings here? Or what are some of the benefits? Dr. Nicole Beurkens: Nothing that's going to happen is all bad. Dr. Nicole Beurkens: As families and as parents, we can support each other and realize that there is no right or wrong, there are options. And you need to look at what is in the best interest of your family's health, wellness, wellbeing. Audrey Monke: Like you said, you can pivot if it seems like it's not working.

Welcome to Protecting Your Nest. Dr. Andy Phung is a board certified Family Medicine and Obesity Medicine doctor who has been using low-carb and intermittent fasting to address metabolic disease in his patients. The discussion today revolves around the difference between conventional medicine and functional medicine. Dr. Phung explains that functional medicine is a philosophy of medicine that seeks to understand and treat the root causes of disease. In this very informative dialogue, Dr. Phung also defines and explains common terms such as insulin resistance, syndrome, and others. Naturally, the conversation also turns to the metabolic effects of different combinations of macronutrients in the diet, traditional cultural inhibitors of metabolic disease, the ‘Americanization’ of cultural diets, the place of intermittent fasting in the treatment of diabetic and obese patients, and the link between dementia and diet. This episode is rich with expertly conveyed and easy to understand information about metabolic processes and the connections between different diseases.

In the tradition in which I sit… we always use Metta Bhavana which is loving-kindness at the end of our session. It is the balm that we have consistent access too, and it elevates us. And it heals us, love, completely.” (43:16)   Links Dr. Sarita Elizabeth Cox Website Take the 5 Elements Quiz Here Element Wisdom Card Decks Healing With Whole Foods by Paul Pitchford Find the full show notes for this episode here Keep up with all things Love Is Medicine Follow Razi on Facebook | Instagram

UPMC Sports medicine physician Dr. Jeanne Doperak joins Tim to talk about how athletes of all ages can get back to playing sports again in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. She’s one of the people behind the new UPMC Youth Sports Playbook designed to help get young athletes back to competition. In this episode, Dr. Doperak details the thinking behind that playbook, and how to get your young athlete back into sports with confidence, with the right approach and the right mindset. https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/UPMC_Get_Back_to_Play_auphonic.mp3 In 2015, the Aspen Institute published a report on youth sports. They looked at youth sports participation among boys and girls from 6 to 12 years old. They found that across the country, roughly 5.5 million kids participate in organized basketball leagues. 5 million play in soccer leagues. 731,000 participate in track and field. 4.5 million kids play in baseball leagues. 1.3 million kids play organized football. And 862,000 kids play in softball leagues. The National Federation of State High School Associations, reports that roughly 8 million teenagers compete in high school sports. And the NCAA reports that 460,000 men and women compete in NCAA collegiate sports. That’s a total of 26.4 million young athletes in the United States. That’s 26.4 million young athletes who had to stop training, practicing and competing a few months ago when the COVID-19 pandemic changed life in America as we know it. Gyms went dark, courts and fields went empty. Locker rooms….locked. Now, as the country moves forward with a gradual reopening process, sports are set to resume at all levels. This may create some concern on the parts of athletes, their families, coaches, teachers, school administrators and athletic directors. It was with this in mind, that UPMC Sports Medicine in Pittsburgh assembled a multidisciplinary team of clinicians and researchers to create guidelines for the people in charge of creating a safe environment for youth athletes as they start to return to play. Dr. Jeanne Doperak is a UPMC primary care sports medicine physician. She led the development of the UPMC Youth Sports Playbook for a return to sports.

Most of us have heard of Impostor Syndrome. I have certainly dealt with bouts of it in my lifetime, but do we truly understand what it is, how to identify and manage it? I didn't before I started researching this episode. This topic was one of my most requested. I talk about what it is, how to identify it within yourselves or others, types of impostors and coping mechanisms. This is an important topic as 70% of the population identify with having it at some point, we can all do better by knowing more.Links:Dr. Valerie Young, Ed.DAshley's Blog PostThe Surprising Solution to the Imposter Syndrome, Lou Solomon, TEDxCharlottePink Power Ranger

If you ask me, fear is the biggest reason we stay stuck in our lives. While fear is at the root of almost everything, it is only by understanding the differences between irrational and realistic fears and constructive and destructive fears that we can reach the power of transformational fear. Dr. Carla Marie Manly is a clinical psychologist, author, and advocate who is here today to help us understand the different types of fear, how to work with them, and how to minimize them so that we can take action in a way that serves us best. With a direct and honest approach with a dose of humor, Dr. Manly is here to help you navigate the soulful adventure into self-awareness. Instead of getting used to the voice of destructive fear that is prevalent in our society, Dr. Manly wants you to slow down and regain your power over your fear.  When going through a betrayal it is easy to stick to what you know and stay in your pain because it is familiar. Through the application of Dr. Manly’s strategies, you can start to strengthen the constructive over the destructive and stop giving your betrayal wiggle room. It is possible to overcome what is keeping you stuck, and with the help of Dr. Manly, you can gain insight into this challenging topic and find a way to focus on your optimal wellness.  The feelings you are having are universal and nothing to be ashamed of. By pushing through the shame you can start on your journey to healing and the joy that has been in you all along.

Destructive fear does not like the light. Destructive fear does not like clarity. Destructive fear does not like written agreements at all because destructive fear likes to be able to be manipulative and sneaky.” (12:56) “When we make goals for ourselves, when we put things in writing, it becomes much more understandable for the psyche. That is why so many of us will make wishlists in our heads or think in our heads and not want to put it in writing. Because the minute we put something in writing, we feel a sense of clarity and accountability.” (19:04) “There is something beautiful and connective about being held in a safe place where you can hear other women’s stories. Their lows, their successes, and know that if they can do it, I can do it too.” (21:48) “Everything is to do with a reminder to the self when you get weak, that these are real things that happen. Is that in line with the kind of life I want in my future?” (26:20)   Links Dr. Carla Marie Manly Website Joy From Fear by Dr. Carla Manly   Find the full episode post here: https://thepbtinstitute.com/117 Do you have Post Betrayal Syndrome?

Throughout this pandemic, we've been sharing articles on our social media from multiple publications in which Dr. Erich Anderer is frequently quoted. Rather than just post the articles, we thought we would reach out to the source.  When we did, we learned that he is a founding member of the North Brooklyn Runners and a Boston Marathoner.  Dr. Anderer couldn't have been more gracious with his time.  He's a busy guy.  In addition to serving as the Chief of Neurosurgery at NYU Langone – Hospital  Brooklyn, and an assistant professor in the Department of Neurosurgery  at the NYU School of Medicine, he's a runner, yogi, musician, and a dad.  Dr. Anderer was born in Japan and grew up in NYC,  where his family utilized a Reiki and shiatsu practitioner in  conjunction with the family physician for preventative health care and  maintenance. Dr.  Anderer performs about 200 spine and brain surgeries a year, but his goal is to keep patients out of his office.  As a result, he has a special nterest in self care as a  means to prevent and treat most causes of neck and back pain. He is also  helping to investigate ways to reduce the use of opiates in  post-surgical patients, and eliminate their use in chronic pain. When COVID-19 spread to the NYC area, all elective surgeries were canceled, and as a result, Dr. Anderer became a key physician in treating coronavirus patients.  We learned SO much from Dr. Anderer, and we hope our listeners do as well.  Please share this information with your friends and family,He provided  a lot of sound advice.
