Neuronutritionist Timothy Frie joins us today to delve into the intricate connections between dietary choices, trauma, and brain health. Tim shares his expertise on how our eating behaviors are often unconsciously shaped by past trauma, stress, and grief, emphasizing the importance of neuro nutrition in healing and recovery. The discussion highlights the transformative power of the MIND diet, which integrates Mediterranean and DASH dietary principles, to enhance mental well-being. We explore the challenges faced by individuals with chronic illnesses and mental health conditions, focusing on the nutritional needs of the brain and nervous system. Key topics include the Cell Danger Response, the impact of protein and micronutrient deficiencies, and the role of neuroplasticity in trauma recovery. The episode underscores the significance of personalizing nutrition to support cognitive function and overall well-being, advocating for a varied and colorful diet to optimize mental health.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaRev. Dr. Jessica Rochester: In an age where plant medicines are paraded like commoditiesand sacred sacraments are filtered through the sterile lens of profit and protocol,there stands a bridge—woven not from theory,but from decades of devotion,grit, and grace.Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester is that bridge.Madrinha. President. Torchbearer.Founder of Céu do Montréal, the Santo Daime Church she brought into being in 1997—not as a rebellion,but as a restoration of sacred memoryto the North.A transpersonal counselor forged in the crucibles of Assagioli and Grof,she speaks the languages of the soul and the somatic,guiding seekers not around, but through the sacred fire of self-confrontation.She walked the bureaucratic labyrinth from 2000 to 2017,securing a Section 56 Exemption—not for fame,but to protect the sacrament of Santo Daime from the cold fists of the state.She is an ordained Interfaith Minister,a Doctor of Divinity,and an author whose two-volume opus—Ayahuasca Awakening—is less a book and more a mapfor those ready to take off their masksand meet the jaguar within.For over four decades she has led workshops,held private practice,stood at the crossroads of consciousness and culture,teaching not how to escape,but how to embodythe radical act of spiritual adulthood.And today,while the psychedelic renaissance sells peak experiences,Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester whispers of something older,quieter,stronger—The long walk home.The humble medicine of self-care,self-mastery,and sacred discipline.So if you came for a keynote speaker,step aside.If you came for a true guidebetween the seen and unseen,prepare your heart.Because the Madrinha is not here to entertain you.She is here to remind you who you werebefore the world told you who to be.⸻https://www.revdrjessicarochester.com/https://psychedelicscene.com/2024/06/20/entheogens-psychedelics-nosc-and-the-search-for-wholeness/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaAsha Caravelli: The Flame Before the AlgorithmsWhile the West holds its ceremonies in PowerPoints,and titrates trauma like a spreadsheet balancing the soul,there are still those who remember—not from books,but from bone.Asha Caravelli is not the psychedelic circus.She is not the TED Talk trip report,not the neon-lit ego death sold for $999 with a weekend certification.No.She is older than the algorithms.Wiser than the wellness branding.A living prayer whispered across lifetimes.For over 14 years, she has sat at the feet of Iboga—not as a technician,but as a servant.Not as a biohacker,but as a torchbearer.In a lineage where silence is sacred and ceremony is not content,Asha holds space like the earth holds grief:with gravity, stillness, and infinite patience.She is a Life, Death and Transition Doula—formally trained, yes,but forged by fire—the kind of fire that only the liminal brings.She doesn't guide you to “optimize” yourself—She walks you to the edgewhere you must lay your false self downand greet the holy terror of who you really are.Daughter of Ross and Paula.Mother to Delani and Roco.Grandmother to Leon Emiliano.This is not a résumé.This is a lineage of Love.And while the psychedelic renaissance obsesses over protocols,Asha cooks.She listens.She prays with her hands in the soiland heals not through dogma,but through dinner.Because the most sacred thingis not found in a quantified molecule.It's in the way she prepares fresh food with Love—like a Eucharist only the initiated can taste.So, if you came for dopamine,keep scrolling.If you came for Truth,stay seated.Because what Asha carries cannot be tweeted,cannot be taught in a three-day course—It can only be transmittedfrom the heart of someonewho has walked through the fireand come back with silence.

In this episode of The Healers Café, Manon Bolliger, FCAH, RBHT (facilitator and retired naturopath with 30+ years of practice) speaks to Kimberly Mitchell to emphasize that mental health recovery is personal, requires self-compassion, and is possible through conscious effort, self-reflection, and a commitment to personal growth.

We grow up being told things, Kimberly Mitchell 17:01 I'll tell you, really, what it comes from is the knowledge, the awareness that I am in control of my entire experience. Manon Bolliger in Bowen College, the methodology has a structure to it, and it really made me think how, when people learn and start they they're fundamentally following the structure, and as the practitioner becomes more intuitive, ABOUT KIMBERLY MITCHELL: Kimberly Mitchell is a mental health advocate, veteran, and transformational leader dedicated to empowering individuals and small businesses. Growing up in a household where independence was a necessity, she excelled academically, earning numerous awards, including the Citizenship Medal from the Daughters of the American Revolution. Her resilience was tested when she lost her father at 16, but she channeled her determination into service, enlisting in the Air Force. As the only woman in her Vehicle Maintenance training class, she set a new standard by earning the highest test scores and later served in Operation Desert Shield/Desert Storm, achieving the rank of E-4 Sergeant. Transitioning into civilian life, Kimberly pursued a career in training and leadership development, working across multiple industries, from technology rollouts to government initiatives. She played a pivotal role in the 2010 Census Project, leading the development of training materials for the first-ever digital data collection. Her work with the Rochester Schools Modernization Program led to the creation of an innovative small business training initiative, impacting local entrepreneurs and serving as a model for other municipalities. Simultaneously, she explored entrepreneurship, running event planning and photo booth businesses before pivoting to a thriving six-figure training business. Despite professional success, Kimberly faced personal challenges that led to a transformative self-discovery journey. Seeking answers through the VA health system, she was diagnosed with mild depression, which became the catalyst for developing the Journey to Joy Personal Transformation System. This breakthrough allowed her to reclaim her happiness, reinforcing her belief that joy is a powerful force for change. Now, she dedicates her time to helping others break free from limiting beliefs and external dependencies, ensuring they recognize their own potential. A founding member of the Greater Rochester Black Business Alliance and an active board member of ROCEDC, Kimberly is deeply committed to community development. She believes that self-sufficiency and joy are the keys to transformation, a message she amplifies through her training programs, mentorship, and advocacy. Living in a community once defined by industrial success and now marked by economic struggle, she is determined to inspire others to reclaim their power and create the life they desire. Her personal mission remains simple yet profound: to make a positive impact on people she may never meet.

Send us a textStep into the raw, powerful journey of Justin, a guest returning to the Self Reflection Podcast, as he joins host Lira Ndifon for an unvarnished conversation on mental health. Justin Witte, author of "The Shadowed Soul" and "A Vicious Cycle," shares his extraordinary experience navigating a life marked by profound childhood abuse, chronic suicidal depression, and a litany of diagnoses including schizoaffective bipolar type, ADHD, dyslexia, PTSD, and an organic brain disorder. Now 19 years sober, Justin reveals how self-reflection, a radical shift in perspective, and the ancient practice of meditation (specifically Chautaka or single-pointed concentration) became his roadmap to rewiring his brain and finding inner peace, even when traditional medications failed.This episode fearlessly confronts the escalating mental health crisis, particularly among men. Lira cites jarring statistics: in 2022, men died by suicide 3.85 times more often than women, with white men accounting for 68.46% of these deaths. Suicide was the 11th leading cause of death in America, with 49,476 lives lost and an estimated 1.6 million attempts. Justin unpacks complex societal factors contributing to this crisis, including the isolating impact of technology, shifting gender roles, economic pressures requiring higher education, and the often-unacknowledged struggles of men in modern society. He argues that the increasing disconnect from genuine human interaction and the curated realities of social media exacerbate feelings of worthlessness and contribute to the alarming rise in depression and anxiety. Justin offers profound insights into the nature of suffering, panic attacks, and the illusion of external reality, drawing from his unique blend of personal experience, Western science, and Eastern philosophies like Vedanta. He vividly describes the terrifying grip of panic attacks and how he overcame them through focused meditation, emphasizing the neuroplasticity of the human brain. This conversation is a vital call for empathy and action, urging listeners to seek support if struggling, and to embrace the transformative power of self-expression and connection. Discover how to reframe your thoughts, challenge perceptions, and navigate your own path to healing, purpose, and a life lived in conscious awareness.Support the showCall to Action: Engage with the Self-Reflection Podcast community!

This man has toured the world selling soul with Jack Johnson, and now he's weaving ritual code into the circuitry of corporate America, transforming screens into shrines and feedback loops into fractal spirals.Jacob Tell is a media mystic. A brand bard. A chaos conductor at the intersection of commerce and cosmic consciousness. He builds platforms like ayahuasca brews — thick with intention, humming with serpents of data and rhythm, asking not for your clicks, but for your initiation.The man doesn't just disrupt — he dismembers the mundane. His new platform, Storywall, is less tech and more technoshamanic mirror — a dancefloor for your digital twin, where memory morphs in real time and each interaction is a prayer.In an era ruled by dopamine loops and doomscroll death cults, Jacob builds holy interfaces — spaces that remind us of the mythic, that connect the neural-networks of community with the blood-wired nodes of the human spirit.If Terence McKenna, Steve Jobs, and the DMT elves held a hackathon in a sacred Redwood Grove during a solar eclipse, the blueprint would look a lot like what Jacob's building.So grab your tuning forks, your vaporwave prayer beads, your legally ambiguous sacrament, and strap your soul to the signal — because this is not content, this is ceremony.This is TRUELIFE with JACOB TELL — and it's about to get… ineffable.Jacob TellAbout — District216 Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Introduction to Mental Alchemy Ever felt like life melted you down just to see what you're made of? I've been there... lying flat on my back after yet another surgery, stripped of my strength, dignity, and purpose. But that moment became my forge. That's when I discovered the real power of mental alchemy. This article dives into a transformational process that most high performers overlook. Mental alchemy isn't about ignoring pain or pushing through it. It's about transmuting it. We'll explore how ancient Hermetic wisdom, blended with modern performance psychology, can help you convert breakdowns into breakthroughs. You'll learn: What mental alchemy really is Why it matters more than ever How to implement it step-by-step Common mistakes to avoid Advanced strategies for those already on the path If you're ready to stop letting pain control you and start using it as fuel for your transformation, read on. What Is Mental Alchemy? Mental alchemy is the process of transforming emotional pain, limiting beliefs, and internal chaos into clarity, strength, and purpose. Rooted in Hermetic philosophy..."As within, so without"...mental alchemy teaches that true change happens from the inside out. Hermetic alchemists believed in transmuting base metals into gold. But modern mental warriors? We transmute shame into self-respect... trauma into triumph. Psychologically, this parallels the process of emotional integration, shadow work, and cognitive reframing. Neuroscience supports it too: by changing our interpretations and responses, we literally rewire our brains. That's mental alchemy in action. Many confuse it with "positive thinking." But this isn't about bypassing or sugarcoating reality. It's about facing darkness with courage, extracting its wisdom, and choosing who you want to become because of it. Why Mental Alchemy Matters More Than Ever In a world obsessed with hustle and optimization, few talk about what happens when your inner world crashes. Mental alchemy matters because breakdowns are inevitable. Burnout. Divorce. Betrayal. Injury. Business failure. I've been through them all. The question isn't if you'll face pain... it's what you'll do with it. Here's why mental alchemy is a non-negotiable skill: -> Clarity through chaos: When emotions cloud judgment, mental alchemy helps distill truth from the noise. -> Self-leadership: It returns sovereignty. No longer are you at the mercy of triggers or circumstances. -> Performance resilience: Alchemists don't crumble under pressure. They evolve through it. In my own life, surviving a deadly avalanche on Mt. Rainier forced me into alchemy. I came out more centered, focused, and connected to purpose than ever before. Pain became my portal. Common Challenges and Limiting Beliefs Mental alchemy sounds powerful...and it is...but many struggle with common mindset traps: "Pain means I'm weak": Truth? Avoiding pain is weakness. Facing it is strength. "I should be over this by now": Healing isn't linear. Alchemy is cyclical. "I can't change my wiring": Neuroplasticity proves otherwise. I used to believe I had to "man up" and push through everything. It wasn't until I confronted my stuttering, shame, and PTSD that true transformation began. The lie that strength means suppression nearly killed me. Mental alchemy means challenging these beliefs and rewriting your internal code. The Mental Alchemy Method: A Step-by-Step Guide Step 1: Calcination – Break the Illusion This is the ego burn. Identify the limiting identities that no longer serve you: perfectionist, victim, people-pleaser. Write them down. Burn them. Feel the loss. Let go. Step 2: Dissolution – Feel It to Free It Stop numbing. Feel the grief, anger, shame. Use breathwork, journaling, or guided somatic release. Emotions are energy. Let them move. Step 3: Separation – Extract the Lesson Look into the pain.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaThe Mycelium Is Moving.A few months ago, I launched something called The Psychedelic Science Art Challenge.No prizes.No promises.Just a call.I said: Submit your art if it speaks to the mystery, the meaning, the madness. I can't offer you money. I can't offer you fame. But I can offer you resonance. Connection. The possibility that someone, somewhere, will see your work and feel a pulse in their chest. The kind of pulse that says—I thought I was alone.One artist—Joshua Moyer—asked if I was accepting music.I said, “Of course.”He didn't send one song. He sent many.Each one more raw, more electric, more alive than the last.An entire album was born. Psychedelic. Soulful. Savage. Sublime.He played every instrument. Sang every note. Sculpted sound like a sacred invocation.And now…His music is the foundation, the score, the sonic bloodstream of the visual art being submitted from creators around the world.Each piece, from every artist, stitched together by sound and spirit.Like spores forming a signal.Like a symphony of the strange and sacred.This isn't a project.This is a remembering.Of what art really is.Of what artists really do.Joshua Moyer didn't just answer the call.He became the call.To the artists who are quietly remaking the world,not with capital but with consequence,not with branding but with bravery—we see you.And to those who still believe art is a product,who think a certificate can make a prophet,who mistake algorithm for altar—you have no idea what's coming.This is what it looks likewhen mycelium starts to dream.https://www.youtube.com@TheDichotomyCollectivehttps://x.com/DichotomyPsychohttps://www.instagram.com/joshuamoyerpsych/https://www.instagram.com/dichotomycollective/https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuamoyernc/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

EP. 213: In this episode of The Dr. Tyna Show, I'm joined by one of the world's leading experts on peptides and cellular medicine, Dr. William Seeds. Dr. Seeds is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with over 25 years of experience and the founder of the Seeds Scientific Research and Performance Institute. He's also hosting the upcoming Peptide World Congress this June 2025 in Las Vegas, where I'm honored to be speaking on the main stage! Together, we dive into a conversation that goes far beyond the basics of GLP-1s. We explore how these peptides can support not just weight loss, but also behavior change, neuroplasticity, and metabolic function. Dr. Seeds shares fresh insights into how GLP-1s affect the brain, why they must be paired with strength training, and the dangers of overreliance or overdosing. Topics Discussed: What are the benefits of GLP-1 medications beyond weight loss? How do GLP-1s like Ozempic affect neuroplasticity and behavior change? Why is strength training essential when using GLP-1 peptides for fat loss? Can you customize GLP-1 dosing based on patient sensitivity and metabolism? What are the risks of overusing or overdosing GLP-1 medications like Ozempic? Sponsored By: Sundays | As a Listener of The Dr Tyna Show, you can Get 40% off your first order of Sundays.

In this episode of the RWS Clinician's Corner, Margaret sits down with Ashok Gupta for a deep dive into the brain's pivotal role in chronic illness—exploring how conditions like Long Covid, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, mold toxicity, and persistent inflammation can often be rooted in neural and nervous system dysregulation. They discuss the distinction between hardware (the body) and software (the brain and nervous system), the science and process of limbic retraining, and practical ways clinicians can integrate these approaches into their practices. In this interview, we discuss: -Brain retraining vs. meditation/stress reduction -The concept of creating and rewiring neural pathways -Acute vs. chronic illness: transition due to overactive protective responses -The role of genetic predispositions (e.g., detox ability, immune differences) -The three “R”s of brain retraining: regulate, retrain, re-engage -Practical considerations for implementation, maintenance, and long-term success -Strategies for integrating these techniques/the Gupta program in clinical practice The Clinician's Corner is brought to you by Restorative Wellness Solutions.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaThere are moments in our lives when the veil lifts—when the illusions fall away and what remains is truth, raw and unfiltered. It is in these moments that we are called to choose: to turn back into the shadows of familiarity, or to walk forward into the fire of awakening. Today, you're about to meet two people who have not only walked that path—but have become guides for those ready to burn away what no longer serves and to stand in the flame of their own becoming.Patrick and Michele Fishley are the founders of Soul Reflections, the world's first global online Iboga/Ibogaine community—a sanctuary for practitioners, providers, seekers, and visionaries alike. But their story isn't just digital—it's deeply spiritual, rooted in blood, bone, and ancient tradition. They are Ngangas—healers and seers—initiated into the sacred Bwiti traditions of Gabon, recognized by the elders themselves, not just for their knowledge, but for their courage, their humility, and their relentless commitment to truth.Patrick, known in the Bwiti tradition as DIBADI Mabunza Mukuku a Kandja—the warrior with the Bwete force and flames of truth from his mouth—is a Registered Nurse with over three decades of experience in Emergency Rooms, ICUs, and trauma bays. A Medical Director and lead facilitator, he has guided over 1,500 Iboga journeys with a perfect safety record. His work bridges the primal and the clinical, the ancestral and the modern.Michele, known as Yakéta—Mother of Twins, Mother of All—is a Licensed Practical Nurse and a transformational integration coach with over 18 years of acute care experience. She is a fierce and nurturing presence in the space, initiated into the sacred feminine lineages of the Nyèmbè and Mabundi traditions. Michele brings the power of the mother, the healer, and the spiritual midwife into every ceremony, retreat, and conversation.Together, Patrick and Michele have turned their lives into a living ceremony. They carry the medicine not just in their hands, but in their hearts. Through their annual pilgrimages to Gabon, they continue to deepen their commitment to the Bwiti traditions—honoring the land, the elders, and the sacred fire of Iboga.Their mission is simple yet profound: to weave ancient wisdom with modern healing, to create safe, soul-rooted spaces for transformation, and to remind us that real healing is not a transaction—it is a sacred initiation.So if you're ready to hear from two of the most grounded, experienced, and spiritually aligned voices in the Iboga space… buckle up.

What happens to marriages and long-term relationships during menopause? Clinical psychologist Kirstin Bouse returns to the podcast to tackle this powerful question, revealing why 70% of midlife breakups are initiated by women.The menopause transition triggers not just hormonal changes but profound psychological shifts. Neuroplasticity during this period reshapes women's brains, often leading to significant evolutions in identity, values, and what they're willing to tolerate. As Kirstin explains, "I hear from a lot of women: I just want to live from me, not from my role as mum or wife. I want to experience joy that's just about me."We explore how these changes impact relationships from multiple angles. For partnerships with potential, we discuss how honest conversations can determine whether couples can evolve together or if paths must diverge. Importantly we discuss that when a woman is living in an unhealthy or controlling relationship, perimenopause may increase vulnerability making it even more important that her safety and wellbeing are the top priority.The conversation doesn't shy away from the challenges of rebuilding life as a single person in midlife, with Kirstin offering practical guidance on finding joy, creating a new identity, and building resilience. Throughout it all, one theme remains constant: the importance of support during this transformative period.Whether you're questioning your own relationship, supporting a friend through changes, or simply wanting to understand this common midlife phenomenon, this episode offers insight, compassion, and a roadmap for navigating relationships through the turbulence of menopause.Subscribe to Dear Menopause for more expert conversations that help you navigate this significant life transition with knowledge and confidence.If you or someone you know is experiencing an unsafe or abusive relationship, please seek support - help is available, and you are not alone.

In this unforgettable episode, Robert sits down with the legendary Wim Hof, also known as The Iceman, for a transformative conversation on the true potential of the human mind and body. Together, they explore how deliberate exposure to cold and conscious breathing unlock powerful physiological and spiritual benefits, awakening dormant capacities that modern society has long ignored. Wim shares how his journey began with soul-searching as a teenager and how his instinctive dive into icy waters led to 26 world records and groundbreaking scientific validation. From suppressing inflammatory responses to accessing subcortical brain regions, Wim explains how his method grants access to states once considered superhuman—but are, in truth, innately human. The two also dive deep into hormesis (growth through stress), the role of intention, the power of love over fear, and their shared fascination with the pyramids and the hidden musical geometry of the universe. This episode is a call to awaken, reminding us that the mind is not limited, and that fear, trauma, and suffering can be transmuted into strength, health, and purpose.

“Integration” is a word that gets thrown around in the healing world, but what does it really mean? In this powerful episode of Trauma Rewired, Elisabeth and Jennifer unravel the true meaning of integration, not as a final step, but as the heart of sustained transformation. Without integration, even the most profound somatic release, emotional breakthrough, or psychedelic insight can quickly fade back into old survival patterns. The nervous system, always seeking safety and familiarity, needs time, rhythm, and repetition to embody change. We explore the neurobiological foundation of integration through the lens of Nneurosomatic Iintelligence. You'll learn about neuroplasticity, minimum effective dose, how somatic preparation sets the stage for transformation, and the dangers of skipping integration in psychedelic or peak somatic experiences. Jennifer shares her deeply personal journey through years of NSI, medicine work, and vision quest, offering lived insight into how patterns like unworthiness get rewired over time. Together, we invite you to rethink healing as an ongoing relationship with your nervous system, your intuition, and your body. Whether you've had a mystical experience, a big emotional release, or a subtle insight in therapy, integration is how you make that change last. If you're navigating your own healing journey, or supporting others in theirs, this episode is essential listening. Topics discussed in this episode: Why integration is the process, not the end The brain's need for pattern repetition and safety What neuroplasticity is and how NSI uses it for lasting change Somatic preparation before peak experiences like psychedelics The three measurable types of psychedelic breakthroughs Emotional, psychological, mystical, and somatic insights Signs your nervous system isn't ready to receive a breakthrough The dangers of bypassing integration Practical examples of integrating new beliefs like worthiness How NSI supports embodied transformation Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Connect with Jennifer https://calendly.com/traumarewired/nsi-1-1-rewire-consultation Learn more about the Neuro-Somatic Intelligence Coaching program and sign up for the next cohort now! https://www.neurosomaticintelligence.com Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join our Trauma Rewired Facebook Group! https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use my exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

Picture Gloria Steinem crossed with Indiana Jones if they were dropped into a Warhol print and handed a bullhorn.Andrew Brown is a tour guide through the simulation—part art historian, part cultural codebreaker. He'll take you from Rothko to Rage Against the Machine without missing a beat, all while interrogating who gets to shape “the canon.”And now joining the fray is the brilliant Lizzie Childress—or as the revolution knows her, Lizzie. She's a triple-threat honors student, history major, political science and museum studies double-minor, and student leader of more clubs than there are TikTok trends in a day. Lizzie's not just studying curatorial power—she's practicing it in real time, zooming in live from the exhibit space itself. She's Phi Alpha Theta meets Schoolhouse Rock meets punk rock historian.Their event? A full-on excavation of the American psyche—from Elvis to drag queens, from Barbie to TikTok backlash. This isn't just nostalgia. It's a reckoning.So if you've ever questioned the gospel of Disney, longed for the days of Blockbuster, or wondered why memes feel more powerful than newspapers—this is your show.Grab your joystick.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaTommy CarriganThey built their empire on graves,stacked bones into skyscrapers,paved over dreams with dead men's lies —and thought we wouldn't notice.But Tommy Carrigan noticed.And he came swinging.Born with rebellion carved into his marrow,gifted with the fire-tongue of his Irish bloodline,Tommy tore through the polite prisons they offered —biology, pharmacy, medicine —and burned their paper chains before they could cuff him.From a crooked rooftop above an old garage,he grabbed a mic like a molotov,sprayed truth like graffiti across the walls of a world rotting from the inside out.They banned him.Erased him.Shut the doors and blacked out the windows.But you can't bury a storm.You can't muzzle a mind that games across star systemsand sees high-rises as tombstones scratching at a deaf sky.Tommy is a cracked mirror, a mad prophet,a workhorse rebel dragging broken truths through barbed wire and throwing them bleeding at your feet.He wears grief like armor —his brother's ghost stitched to his chest like a battle flag,a promise that from ruin, he'll raise something fierce enough to matter.This ain't a show.It's a jailbreak.It's a fistfight in the graveyard of dead ideas.Welcome to Tommy Carrigan —where every word is a brick through their stained-glass illusions,and the walls of the old world are coming down spray-painted, blood-smeared, and loud.Tommy's Podcast Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

That's the frequency we're tuning into today.I'm George Monty, and this is the place where the symbolic goes strategic, where the mystical puts on a clean shirt and walks into the boardroom—but doesn't bow.My guest is Adam Miezio—a rare mind at the crossroads of content and consciousness. He's written for medicine carriers and molecule makers, shaped language around trauma, healing, psychedelics, and transformation. But don't mistake him for a marketer. Adam is something else—a translator between the digital world and the ineffable.In this episode, we're not asking how to “scale” or “optimize.”We're asking what happens when the sacred enters the system.When ayahuasca meets analytics.When a keyword becomes a prayer.This isn't a campaign. It's a conversation between worlds.And you're invited to listen in.adammiezio.contently.comadammiezio.contently.comhttps://www.bizdelics.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima
Episode 062: Is it possible to truly change, or are our personalities just fixed traits we're stuck with? In this episode, we're challenging the belief that “people never change” by exploring the science of neuroplasticity, the truth about trauma-driven patterns, and what Scripture says about transformation. We'll break down the difference between who you are and what you've become to survive—and why healing and growth are not only possible, but part of God's design. Key Takeaways:You're not defined by your patterns—they can change.Neuroplasticity proves your brain can be rewired.Scripture shows that transformation is both spiritual and embodied.Your personality isn't the problem—your past might be.God built renewal into your biology and invites you into it daily.Download the Heart Safety Guide: https://resources.femininegeniuscoaching.com/heart-safety-guideConnect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/femininegeniuscoaching
If you've been feeling stuck in lack, survival mode, or emotional overwhelm, there's a reason—and there's a way out. In this MindBody TV episode, I'm sharing how to use neuroplasticity to shift your brain's wiring, so you can finally step out of the patterns that keep you feeling exhausted, unsupported, or not enough. These loops aren't who you are, they're just old signals your nervous system got used to sending. When you bring awareness, breath, and presence into those moments, you create new pathways: ones that signal abundance, clarity, safety, and freedom. This isn't about forcing positive thinking. It's about creating true energetic and physiological alignment. Join me next week for my FREE live workshop: https://drkimd.com/workshop-2025/
In this deeply personal and science-packed episode, Brandi and Dr. Desiree Caruso, ND return from a transformative Joe Dispenza Weeklong Advanced Retreat and share everything while the energy is still fresh.What really happens when you spend 7 days meditating for over 40 hours, diving into quantum physics, neuroscience, and heart-brain coherence? Can you really change your biology with thought alone? Can meditation alter gene expression, shift your microbiome, and create spontaneous healing?We unpack the real science behind the transformation, including:Neuroplasticity and breaking subconscious programmingEpigenetics and the role of belief in biologyResearch on heart-brain coherenceThe observer effect and the quantum model of realityPineal gland activation and mystical brain statesMeasurable physiological changes during meditationAnd yes, we get into The Matrix, red pill vs. blue pill, and what it truly means to wake up from the systems and beliefs that no longer serve you.Whether you're a longtime student of Joe Dispenza's work or just curious about how meditation can upgrade your mind, body, and life—this is an episode you don't want to miss.

Comments or feedback? Send us a text! Dr. Chris Taplin,a psychiatrist and founder of Ottawa's TMS Life clinic, joins us for a deep dive into one of the most promising frontiers in psychiatric care: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or TMS. As clinicians, many of us have encountered the heartbreak of treatment-resistant depression — watching clients struggle despite best-practice psychotherapy and pharmacology. TMS offers a non-invasive, evidence-based alternative that is reshaping how we approach these cases. In this conversation, we unpack the science, patient experience, clinical decision-making, and broader implications of this technology. Whether you're a skeptic, a curious clinician, or already working with neuromodulation, I think you'll find this a thoughtful, grounded look at where TMS fits in the future of mental health treatment.Topics We Cover:
Send us a textShort Summary: Dr. Alex Kwan unpacks the latest neuroscience research on how psychedelics like ketamine & psilocybin reshape the brain.About the guest: Alex Kwan, PhD, is an associate professor of biomedical engineering at Cornell University. His lab employs advanced imaging to study how psychedelics and other drugs affect the mammalian brain.Note: Podcast episodes are fully available to paid subscribers on the M&M Substack and everyone on YouTube. Partial versions are available elsewhere. Transcript and other information on Substack.Episode Summary: Dr. Alex Kwan discusses how psychedelics like ketamine and psilocybin induce rapid neuroplastic changes in the brain, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, contrasting their effects with traditional antidepressants like SSRIs, and exploring their potential for treating depression and chronic pain through structural and functional brain alterations.Key Takeaways:Ketamine & psilocybin rapidly increase dendritic spine density in the prefrontal cortex, enhancing neural connections within days, unlike SSRIs, which take weeks.These drugs show sustained neuroplastic changes in mice, lasting weeks to months after a single dose, suggesting long-term brain rewiring.Serotonin 2A receptor is critical for psilocybin's neuroplastic effects, as precise genetic knockouts in adult mice eliminate spine growth.Unlike ketamine, psilocybin activates the insula, a brain region linked to chronic pain processing, hinting at new therapeutic potential.Both drugs induce similar gene expression patterns in areas like the prefrontal cortex and amygdala, but differ in specific regions like the insula.Related episode:M&M #30: Psilocybin, Ketamine, Neuroplasticity & Imaging the Brain | Alex Kwan*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

What does it really mean to be?This week on The Skeptic Metaphysicians, we plunge headfirst into the cosmic rabbit hole with Dr. Val Rytova, a brilliant behavioral neuroscientist who fuses science and spirituality like it's nobody's business. She's got degrees in neuroscience, immunology, and anthropology, but don't let the academic chops fool you—Dr. Val is here to talk about the metaphysical study of existence itself: Ontology. From rewiring the brain and changing our DNA expression to navigating fear, awakening consciousness, and dancing with the mysteries of Being (with a capital B), this episode is the ultimate intersection of science, soul, and the slippery nature of time.
In this episode, Sam exposes the myth that confidence is something you're born with. Instead, she reveals how true, unfuckwithable confidence is built through consistent, bold action. For listeners who are tired of self-doubt and ready to take charge, this episode offers practical strategies to crush negativity and build confidence one step at a time. Key Points: The Confidence Myth: Sam explains that confidence isn't innate. Self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and societal conditioning hold people back from reaching their full potential. Action Over Waiting: She challenges the notion of waiting until you “feel confident” before taking action, emphasizing that every bold step—whether it's hitting the gym, posting online, or speaking up—builds your confidence muscles. Practical Strategies: Sam shares actionable tips, such as using power poses, practicing affirmations, and celebrating small wins to overcome self-doubt and build unshakable confidence. Neuroplasticity & Mindset: She discusses how rewiring the brain through consistent action can shift limiting beliefs and ignite unbreakable self-trust. Borrowing Belief:Sam introduces the idea of borrowing belief from others—whether it's a supportive mentor, a trusted friend, or even your dog—reminding you that you are more capable than you think.

If there is a way to enhance movement for aging better - whether we're already exercising or we're in need of getting started - we're in! If you've ever said or felt, “every time I start to exercise I get hurt,” this is for you. This episode will also hit you right where you love to exercise. We know exercise has a major impact on the brain. It's a dose of clarity, problem solving, creativity. There's no lack of science to prove the mind-body-and spirit can no longer be separated. They're an integrated part of all components of wellness. Feeling a little stiff? You may feel better by the end. Know the smart movement for aging better! My Guest: Lara Heimann is an internationally recognized yoga pioneer, Physical Therapist, and founder of the revolutionary LYT Method®—an evidence-based approach to movement that combines the principles of yoga, physical therapy, and functional movement. Lara's passion lies in empowering people of all ages to move better, live pain-free, and optimize their physical and mental well-being. Her work has reached thousands of students and teachers across more than 50 countries, transforming lives with her innovative blend of movement science and spiritual connection. She holds a BA in Biological Anthropology and Anatomy and an MS in Physical Therapy from Duke University, along with a Neurodevelopmental Training Certification through Stanford University. Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:28:13] Why is moving well so important for aging? [00:30:28] What are common misconceptions people have about aging and exercise? [00:18:44] [00:31:10] What role does neuroplasticity play in aging? [00:21:28] How can people optimize longevity and vitality? Neuroplasticity & Movement Neuroplasticity is your brain's ability to grow and change Movement “rewires” the brain - you grow your brain from movement. Use developmental movement patterns to re-educate the nervous system. Your brain craves novelty. Your Guide to Movement for Aging Better The Myth of ‘Aging = Body Decline' Move more with age, not less. Joint mobility and strength are important as we age. Incorporate movement into daily routines (e.g. cleaning your house, climbing stairs). If you look at people who live long and live well, the one common thing is they're active and stay active. If you're in the middle part of your life and you haven't been active, it's never too late. Pain & Movement Inefficient movement creates and sustains pain. Move in a smarter way but don't stop moving. Key Takeaways Movement rewires the brain. It's not just about fitness—movement helps with cognition, mood, and longevity. Neuroplasticity isn't age-limited. You can retrain your brain and body at any age. Already active? You can get even better. Advanced movers have more potential for growth when incorporating neuro-focused training. Repetition isn't always progress. Novelty challenges your brain and creates stronger, smarter movement patterns. Pain is information, not a stop sign. Pain (not injuries) often lingers due to patterns. New movement can break that cycle. Aging isn't a reason to scale back, but a cue to level up.
