    How can creativity, mindfulness, and emotional intelligence transform Gen Z mental health? In this powerful episode of Inner Voice – A Heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan (E445), Dr. Foojan sits down with creative director, artist, and youth mental health advocate Rafael McMaster, founder of Indivisible Arts, a Los Angeles–based nonprofit dedicated to helping teenagers develop emotional resilience, self-awareness, and inner strength through creativity and mindfulness practices. After a successful career as a Creative Executive at Creative Artists Agency, Rafael shifted his focus from the entertainment industry to youth empowerment and mental wellness. Through Indivisible Arts, he developed the groundbreaking Creative Wisdom Tools curriculum, which has been accepted as a California state-approved English curriculum. The program teaches students practical mental health tools, emotional regulation skills, mindfulness techniques, and creative expression. Rafael also shares insights from his new book, FundaMentalife Tools, a hands-on toolkit designed to help young people develop emotional intelligence, self-control, intention setting, radical acceptance, and visualization—essential skills for navigating today's fast-paced digital world. In this episode, Dr. foojan and Rafael explore how Gen Z can build mental resilience, self-awareness, and emotional intelligence through art, storytelling, journaling, and creative expression. Rafael explains how teaching young people to separate their identity from their thoughts can significantly improve confidence, reduce anxiety, and strengthen overall mental well-being. Through initiatives such as the Resin Creative Lab and the student-driven platform streamofconsciousness.life, teenagers are sharing authentic stories about how these tools have helped them overcome personal challenges and build stronger emotional foundations through peer-to-peer learning. Dr. Foojan and Rafael also discuss the urgent need for mental health education in schools and why traditional education systems often fail to equip students with the emotional and cognitive life skills they truly need. This inspiring conversation offers valuable insights for parents, educators, mental health professionals, and anyone passionate about empowering the next generation to thrive emotionally, mentally, and creatively.

    Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…    Emily: My sibling was diagnosed with ADHD at a very young age and has been taking ADHD medication for at least 5 years. In the IHP level one course we were learning about neurotransmitters and you were speaking about how having to much adrenaline and dopamine can cause behavioral issue among many other issues. My sibling has had behavioral issues such as compulsive lying, very impulsive, and it seems that she does not think though any of her actions as if her actions have no consequences. Its beyond the normal rebellious teen. I was curious if this could possibly be due to the adhd medication that she has been taking? If so, can you please explain? What labs should we run? How would someone wean off adhd meds? Any other recommendations? Thank you!       Andy: I'd love to get your professional opinion on Mitopure (urolithin A). What does the current research say about its effectiveness for mitochondrial health and longevity, and do you see real-world benefits in your patients or practice?      Sarah: Hello! My husband and I own and operate a diesel truck repair shop and have been in business for 11 years. During that time, I've had regular exposure to diesel exhaust, fumes, solvents, and shop air. Over the past few years, I've experienced some ongoing health concerns (inflammation, fatigue, gut issues) and am wondering whether long-term exposure could be contributing. I'm interested in a functional medicine approach to evaluate possible toxic burden or inflammation and to understand what testing, lifestyle changes, or supplements might help support lung health, detox pathways, and overall wellness. I'm looking for a proactive, preventative approach while continuing to run our business. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!      Anonymous: I started listening to your podcasts a few years ago, and I've learned how to improve my health and quality of life in many ways—so thank you for sharing your knowledge! Question: My heavy metals test showed high levels of mercury and aluminum. Recently started processes to remove them: functional medicine detox (5 days) > intestinal cleanse (2 days) > heavy metal detox (30+ days, still going), and another intestinal cleanse (2 days on 30th day). Feeling mentally and physically better - like my "old self" again. When I started the HM detox, my bowel movements started having a strong smell and causing my anus to itch. Is that due to an elimination of heavy metals or due to ingredients in the detox or cleanse? Thanks.      Pete: Hi Stephen, Thanks for the great work you do. I wake up every night once (sometimes twice) to urinate and would love your thoughts on how to sleep through the night. Some background: I'm a 40-year-old male, generally healthy, eat clean, and don't drink alcohol. I stop eating about three hours before bed and limit fluids in the evening. No caffeine after noon. During the day I also urinate frequently, which I can manage. At night the volume is small, but the urgency signal is strong. I've been checked by a doctor (including prostate), everything looks normal, and I've tried a few medications with limited effect. I'd really appreciate your thoughts on any protocols or angles that might be worth exploring.

In her early twenties, a severe medical reaction led to a near-death experience where she found herself in a vast white space watching a life review unfold from a mysterious book. Later medical crises brought additional near-death experiences that deepened her connection to the spiritual realm and helped her understand unusual states like sleep paralysis and out-of-body awareness. Today, she believes those experiences reawakened the intuitive gifts she was born with and led her to help others connect with loved ones beyond this life. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Recovery is possible, and it's probable. Poison Prevention Educators talk to students and communities about substance abuse prevention. Opioid use disorder has many possible entry points, including using pain killers from surgery or dental work, experimentation, and accidental use. Pharmacists have the opportunity to counsel on proper use and storage of MOUD. Counsel to take oral doses in private, so vulnerable individuals cannot see. Vulnerable individuals, like children or DD adults want to imitate the behavior of others. Avoid medication errors. Remove distractions while taking or giving medications, and read the label every time. Keep a personal MAR, if needed, to remember if a dose has been taken.  If a medication error happens, get help (Poison Help or 9-1-1), forgive yourself, and continue your road to recovery.  Narcan is import for anyone in recovery from opioid addiction to have. But, a person experiencing an OD will be unable to give themselves Narcan. Make sure your patients educate the people around them about what Narcan is, when to use it, and how to administer it.  As a general rule, counsel on calling 9-1-1 after giving a dose of Narcan. It can wear off.  Pharmacists should counsel on risks of keeping MOUD in the home: accidental use by a curious, opioid-naive child, confusion with other meds, accidental second dose, etc. Call Poison Help right away with exposure concerns, but skip right to 9-1-1 if the person is not breathing, unconscious, or having a seizure.  Poison Center Staff are experts in poison information. They help healthcare professionals and the general public with questions. If you call, you're in good hands. Adults of all ages may be in recovery. It's not just a health condition for young people.  Get Poison Help Line magnets for your pharmacy, and share them with your patients. If you need some magnets, call 1-800-222-1222.  March is Poison Prevention Month in the United States. National Poison Prevention Week in the US is March 15-21, 2026, and the theme is, "When the unexpected happens, Poison Help is here for you." There is a partner toolkit with images and talking points on https://piper.filecamp.com/s/i/OOt8k1JlBFCc08KH  A complete health history is important. Ask about recovery. Include "in recovery from opioid addiction" as a health condition at the pharmacy and with medical providers.  Advise patients to inscribe, "Do not give opioids" on medic alert jewelry. Similar advice, advise patient to include "do not give opioids" in the "health app" on their smartphone in case of emergency. Pharmacists (this is a tough one). If you see something, say something. Protect your patient's recovery. If something on your prescription monitoring program suggests that your patient is in recovery, but they are trying to fill prescriptions for opioids, protect their recovery. Maybe a well-meaning dentist, doctor, or surgeon wrote a prescription and didn't know the whole story. Or, maybe your patient wants to relapse. If you see something, say something, even if it feels awkward. Prevent relapses and maybe overdoses with patients who have a lower tolerance for opioids.  Be skeptical of natural products and supplements that have been promised to help with opioid withdrawal.  Terminology matters. Know your audience, and reflect their preferred language back to them. Avoid terms that are stigmatizing, like "junkie." When in doubt, ask the person you're speaking with how they prefer to call themselves.    Kim's websites and social media links: ✅ Guest Application Form (The Pharmacist's Voice Podcast) https://bit.ly/41iGogX  ✅ Monthly email newsletter sign-up link https://bit.ly/3AHJIaF  ✅ LinkedIn Newsletter https://bit.ly/40VmV5B ✅ Business website https://www.thepharmacistsvoice.com ✅ The Pharmacist's Voice ® Podcast https://www.thepharmacistsvoice.com/podcast ✅ Pronounce Drug Names Like a Pro © Online Course https://www.kimnewlove.com  ✅ Pharmacist Podcaster Book https://amzn.to/4iAKNBs  ✅ Podcasting Online Course https://www.kimnewlove.com/podcasting  ✅ Private Podcasting Coaching or Consulting https://www.kimnewlove.com/private-coaching  ✅ LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimnewlove ✅ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/kim.newlove.96 ✅ Twitter https://twitter.com/KimNewloveVO ✅ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/kimnewlovevo/ ✅ YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA3UyhNBi9CCqIMP8t1wRZQ ✅ ACX (Audiobook Narrator Profile) https://www.acx.com/narrator?p=A10FSORRTANJ4Z ✅ Start a podcast with my coach, Dave Jackson from The School of Podcasting!

    Can you get your morning back? Thyroid patients are familiar with the "morning starvation hour" -- that hour after you take your morning thyroid pill when you're not supposed to eat, or grab that life-sustaining first cup of coffee.  But how critical is that window — and what happens if real life gets in the way? In this episode, we unpack the science behind thyroid medication absorption and why food, coffee, calcium, and even fiber can interfere with how well your medication works. Taking levothyroxine on an empty stomach can improve absorption, while certain foods and drinks may reduce its effectiveness if consumed too soon.We also explore the growing recognition that rigid fasting rules don't work for everyone. Research shows that taking thyroid medication with breakfast — when done consistently and sometimes with dose adjustments — can still maintain stable thyroid levels for many patients. The key isn't perfection; it's consistency. When timing varies day to day, hormone levels can fluctuate, but a predictable routine helps your provider fine-tune your dose and keep symptoms under control.Most importantly, this episode helps you design a morning routine that supports your thyroid and your lifestyle. Learn when you can safely drink coffee, how long to wait before supplements, and whether bedtime dosing might be a better option for you.

    Send a textWhat if a lower LDL comes with a quiet cost to your strength and resilience? We dig into a massive biobank analysis linking long-term statin use with declines in grip strength and appendicular lean mass, then connect the dots to sarcopenia, mitochondrial function, and the daily choices that shape metabolic health. Strength is more than performance; it predicts independence, glucose control, and longevity, which is why any therapy that erodes muscle demands a closer look.We walk through the study's design, what “appendicular lean mass” really measures, and why the findings held even after adjusting for lifestyle and genetics like SLCO1B1. From there, we peel back the LDL-centric mindset and focus on terrain: insulin, inflammation, triglycerides, HDL, and LDL particle quality. You'll hear why refined carbs, seed oils, and chronic inflammation push lipoproteins in the wrong direction—and how protein-forward meals, resistance training, and lower insulin load tip the balance toward larger, less atherogenic particles with benefits that extend well beyond a single lab value.We also compare statins with hydrophilic options, alternate dosing strategies, and newer PCSK9 inhibitors, clarifying where they may fit for secondary prevention and where big questions remain—especially around muscle preservation and all-cause mortality. CoQ10 gets a fair review: low risk, mixed evidence, and not a proven fix for long-term function. Most importantly, we share practical steps to protect your muscle: track grip strength, prioritize 1.6 to 2.0 g/kg daily protein, lift two to three times per week, walk after meals, and align circadian rhythms with sleep and sunlight. Medications can lower numbers; only your muscles move you through life. Let's make treatment plans that respect both.If this conversation helped you think differently about risk and resilience, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so more listeners can find thoughtful, evidence-informed health guidance.For slides, open source references and video go to: www.thehealthedgepodcast.com

    GI Issues in Eating Disorder Recovery: Why Bloating, Constipation, & Stomach Pain Happen & How Healing Is Possible

    If eating disorder recovery has made your stomach feel worse instead of better, you are not alone. Many people experience bloating, constipation, reflux, stomach pain, and fullness during recovery. These symptoms can feel frightening and discouraging, especially when they show up after you start nourishing your body more consistently. In this solo episode, Dr. Marianne Miller, LMFT, explains why gastrointestinal symptoms are common during eating disorder recovery and why they do not mean recovery is failing. You will learn how restriction affects the digestive system, why symptoms sometimes intensify during early recovery, and what helps the gut heal over time. Dr. Miller also shares practical strategies for coping with GI discomfort while continuing recovery. This episode offers compassionate guidance for navigating one of the most misunderstood parts of eating disorder healing. Why GI Issues Are Common in Eating Disorder Recovery Many people are surprised when digestive symptoms worsen after they begin eating more consistently. Bloating, constipation, reflux, nausea, and stomach pain can make recovery feel confusing or even frightening. In this episode, Dr. Marianne Miller explains how restrictive eating, purging, inconsistent nourishment, and limited food variety affect the gastrointestinal system. When the body does not receive enough energy, digestion slows in order to conserve resources. Motility decreases, stomach emptying may become delayed, and the muscles of the digestive tract lose strength over time. When nourishment increases during recovery, the digestive system must relearn how to function. This recalibration process can temporarily intensify symptoms. While uncomfortable, these changes are often part of the gut rebuilding normal digestive rhythms. Common Digestive Symptoms During Eating Disorder Recovery People in eating disorder recovery frequently report symptoms such as bloating, constipation, reflux, abdominal discomfort, nausea, and early fullness. These symptoms may appear during early refeeding or after increasing meal consistency. Dr. Miller discusses how slowed gastrointestinal motility, microbiome changes, and nervous system activation contribute to these experiences. She also explains why bloating can feel especially distressing in a culture that places intense pressure on stomach appearance and body size. Understanding the physiology behind these symptoms can help reduce fear and prevent the eating disorder from using GI discomfort as justification for returning to restriction. The Gut Is Adaptable and Healing Is Possible One of the most important messages of this episode is that the digestive system is highly adaptable. With consistent nourishment, hydration, and medical support when needed, the gastrointestinal tract can recover significant function. Over time, stomach emptying can improve, bowel patterns can normalize, and abdominal discomfort can decrease. The gut lining regenerates, digestive enzymes adjust, and the microbiome can become more balanced. Recovery does not always follow a straight line, but healing is possible when the body receives consistent energy and care. Practical Ways to Cope With GI Symptoms in Recovery This episode also explores practical ways to cope with digestive discomfort while continuing eating disorder recovery. Dr. Miller discusses the role of mechanical eating in helping retrain digestive rhythms and why regular meals often support gastrointestinal healing. Sensory supports can also help regulate the nervous system, including wearing loose clothing, using a heating pad on the abdomen after meals, and creating calming eating environments. Hydration can support bowel function, and gentle abdominal massage may help stimulate motility. For some individuals, medical providers may recommend medications or short term treatments to reduce symptoms such as constipation, reflux, or delayed gastric emptying. Dr. Miller emphasizes that any movement during eating disorder recovery must be cleared by a medical provider first. If a physician has determined that movement is safe, gentle activities such as short walks or stretching may sometimes support digestion. Medical clearance is essential before incorporating movement into recovery. The Role of Medical Support in GI Healing Because digestive symptoms can overlap with other medical conditions, collaboration with an eating disorder informed medical provider is important. Physicians can help assess symptoms, rule out other causes, and recommend appropriate treatments when needed. Medications or medical supports may be helpful for constipation, reflux, nausea, or delayed gastric emptying. Seeking medical care for GI symptoms does not mean recovery is failing. It means symptoms are being treated compassionately and responsibly. Intersectionality and GI Symptoms Dr. Miller also highlights how systemic bias can affect how digestive symptoms are treated. People in larger bodies may have GI concerns dismissed as weight related rather than recognized as recovery related. People of color may experience undertreatment of pain. Neurodivergent individuals may experience sensory distress that is misunderstood or minimized. Acknowledging these realities helps contextualize why some people struggle to receive appropriate care and why compassionate, informed providers are so important. A Message of Hope for Eating Disorder Recovery GI distress during eating disorder recovery can feel discouraging, especially when symptoms appear after you begin nourishing your body more consistently. But digestive discomfort does not mean recovery is harming you. In many cases, it means the digestive system is relearning how to function. With time, consistent nourishment, appropriate medical support, and nervous system regulation, many people see meaningful improvement in digestive symptoms. Your body is not failing you. It is adjusting and healing.

Cozy Earth makes it easier to get the cozy, breathable sleep your body (and your little one) deserve. Use code HEHE at https://cozyearth.com/ for 20% off your order and treat yourself to the sleep you've been dreaming of. In this episode, HeHe sits down with Dr. Kristin Lasseter to unpack perinatal mental health with a focus on postpartum anxiety (PPA) versus postpartum depression (PPD), how they differ, and when “baby blues” may signal something more. While mood shifts are common in the early postpartum days, symptoms that persist beyond a couple of weeks, disrupt sleep, bring constant anxiety or sadness, intrusive thoughts, or thoughts of death deserve real support. They talk candidly about the guilt, shame, and fear of judgment that keep many women silent, and why telling one safe person can be a powerful first step. The conversation explores common risk factors like fertility struggles, pregnancy or birth complications, and PMDD, along with the significant hormonal shift that happens after the placenta is delivered and why the brain can feel especially vulnerable during that window. HeHe and Dr. Lasseter also navigate the often-stigmatized topic of psychiatric medication during pregnancy and postpartum. They discuss why abruptly stopping medication is usually unsafe, how to thoughtfully weigh medication risks against the risks of untreated mental illness, what research tells us about breastfeeding compatibility, and what to expect when starting or adjusting treatment. They touch on newer, faster-acting postpartum depression options, therapy modalities like CBT and EMDR, and additional treatments such as TMS and ECT. The episode closes with an honest conversation about bounce-back culture, social media pressure, and choosing support systems that protect a mother's mental health. Throughout, the message is clear: evidence-based care matters, suffering in silence isn't a badge of honor, and there is no shame in using medication when it's needed. 0:00 - Introduction: Mental Health Medications in Pregnancy & Postpartum 4:36 - Postpartum Anxiety vs Postpartum Depression: Key Differences 6:01 - Normal Baby Blues vs Red Flags: When to Seek Help 9:51 - Intrusive Thoughts & Breaking the Stigma 17:26 - Medication Safety in Pregnancy: What You Need to Know 24:43 - Should You Stop Your Meds When Pregnant? 30:03 - Hormones & Mental Health: The Postpartum Crash 43:56 - Breastfeeding While on Psychiatric Medications 51:26 - How Long Should You Stay on Medication? 60:50 - Fighting the "Bounce Back" Culture & Social Media's Impact   Guest Bio: Kristin Yeung Lasseter, MD is a Board-Certified Psychiatrist in Texas who specializes in Reproductive Psychiatry and Women's Mental Health.  She graduated cum laude from Southwestern University with a Bachelors of Science in Biology prior to attending medical school at the Long School of Medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio.

    Antiarrhythmic medications are some of the most complex and high-risk drugs pharmacists encounter in clinical practice. In this episode, we break down the most important concepts pharmacists need to understand about antiarrhythmics, including the major drug classes and the clinical situations where these medications are commonly used. A major focus of the discussion is medication safety. Many antiarrhythmics carry risks such as QT prolongation, proarrhythmia, and significant drug–drug interactions. Pharmacists play a critical role in identifying these risks, monitoring electrolytes and ECG changes, and recognizing situations where therapy adjustments are necessary. We also highlight why certain medications require inpatient initiation and careful monitoring. The episode also covers practical clinical pearls, including the unique toxicity profile and interaction potential of amiodarone, how to think about rate control versus rhythm control strategies in atrial fibrillation, and the most common medication-related problems pharmacists should watch for. Whether practicing in ambulatory care, hospital, or long-term care settings, understanding antiarrhythmics can help pharmacists prevent serious complications and improve patient outcomes.

    The future of mental health in America and the world may depend on a growing number of brave psychotherapists like our guest today, Dr. Teralyn, who defy conventional psychiatry by voicing their own opinions on the shortcomings and dangers of psychiatric drugs.  These criticisms are grounded in hundreds and thousands of hours of meetings with psychotherapy clients, meeting face to face an hour at a time and hearing the stories of their patients which places them in a better position than prescribers, who spend much less time with the people they are medicating and who have much less insight into how much medications interfere with human relationships and with love. Dr. Teralyn Sell, PhD, is a licensed psychotherapist who specializes in understanding mental health when standard explanations and treatments fall short. Her work integrates psychology with principles from nutritional psychiatry and functional medicine, examining how brain health, sleep, stress, and medication effects shape emotional and cognitive health. Dr. Teralyn is particularly interested in long-term outcomes, informed consent, and helping people make sense of mental health decisions. She is the author of Your Best Brain and co-host of The Gaslit Truth Podcast, where clinical insight meets candid conversation about where mental health care breaks down and how clearer thinking leads to better choices. She also writes a regular blog, Dr. Teralyn. Her style is thoughtful and engaging, grounded in science, and focused on making complex ideas understandable without oversimplifying them. This fascinating and fun interview with Dr. Teralyn, PhD, and the Breggins on The Breggin Hour is truly worth your time.  We hope you will join us.

    Is weight loss really the answer — or is the real work about healing your relationship with food and your body? In this episode of NHA Today, host Eileen Kopsaftis sits down with registered nurse and wellness educator Mary Marshall, creator of Mindset Over Weight, to explore a powerful shift in the conversation around weight, dieting, and health. Together, they unpack: Why weight cycling (losing and regaining weight) may be more harmful than maintaining a stable higher weight How dieting disrupts hunger and fullness hormones (ghrelin & leptin) Why intuitive (or attuned) eating is not "eat whatever you want" The neurological impact of chronic dieting The real risks behind GLP-1 medications How shame and self-criticism sabotage long-term health Mary shares why health can exist across a wide range of body sizes — and how learning to listen to internal signals can restore peace, metabolic balance, and self-trust. This is a compassionate, research-informed conversation about moving from self-judgment to self-care. Guest Information
