They unpack the revolutionary concept that water in the body exists in a structured, energized form—beyond solid, liquid, and gas—and is central to cellular function, energy production, and health.You'll learn how EZ water acts like a biological battery, how red and infrared light build this water structure, and why cancer cells are deficient in it. Dr. Pollack also explores how mitochondrial health, light exposure, grounding, herbal compounds, and hyperbaric oxygen all influence our internal hydration and vitality at a cellular level.Whether you're into bioenergetics, red light therapy, or hydration science, this episode is a must-listen.Topics covered:• What is EZ Water and how it powers cells• Why hydration isn't just about drinking water• The shocking truth about ATP and cellular energy• How light, movement, and herbs influence cellular water• Implications for cancer, chronic disease, and aging• Dr. Pollack's upcoming book Charged Dr. Gerald H. Pollack is a professor of bioengineering at the University of Washington and a pioneering researcher in the field of water science. He is renowned for his discovery of the “fourth phase of water,” also known as exclusion zone (EZ) water, which exists beyond the traditional solid, liquid, and vapor states. This phase exhibits unique properties that have significant implications for biology, health, and energy.Beyond his research, Dr. Pollack is the founding editor-in-chief of the scientific journal WATER and serves as the executive director of the Institute for Venture Science. He also convenes the Annual Conference on the Physics, Chemistry, and Biology of Water.  His contributions to science have been recognized with numerous awards, including the Prigogine Medal for thermodynamics, the NIH Director's Transformative Research Award, and the Emoto Peace Prize.Dr. Pollack's work continues to challenge conventional scientific paradigms, offering fresh insights into the fundamental nature of water and its role in life processes.If you found the information in today's episode with Dr. Pollack particularly interesting and/or compelling, please share it with a family member, friend, colleague and/or anyone that you think could benefit and be illuminated by this knowledge.

The primary idea is that changing your nutrition can heal both physical and mental health issues by removing interferences that block the body's natural ability to heal itself.KISMETWhile many people associate obesity with visible weight gain, Ben shares that although he was clinically obese at 34% body fat, most people wouldn't have recognized him as such due to his height and body type—suggesting that "hidden obesity" may be more common than we realize.EPISODE SUMMARYBen Azadi shares his journey from being obese, depressed, and suicidal to achieving optimal health by changing his nutrition and mindset. He explains how his severe depression lifted as a side effect of improving his physical health. Ben discusses the concept that our bodies have an innate ability to heal if we remove interferences like high insulin levels, seed oils, and environmental toxins. He emphasizes that changing your self-image is crucial for sustainable health improvements, as "you will never outperform your self-image." Ben reveals how insulin resistance develops 6-14 years before blood sugar problems appear, making fasting insulin testing critical for early detection. He also discusses how restaurants are beginning to return to cooking with natural fats instead of seed oils. The conversation highlights how symptoms are simply the body's "check engine light" signaling something needs attention, rather than problems requiring medication to suppress.NOTABLE QUOTE"God built my body and all of our bodies to heal itself.

We often expect love and relationships to be easy--and perfect--but the best of relationships are much like a bountiful garden that needs regular doses of tender loving care. And, like the weeds that can strangle and overtake a healthy garden, issues such as blame, resentment, and chronic conflict can ruin even the most promising relationship.

A predominantly plant-based diet has been shown to reduce the risk of these diseases, improving health and longevity. Learn some of the key facts supporting plant based diets for health and longevity in today's episode from Plant Based Health Professionals UK at PlantBasedHealthProfessionals.com #vegan #plantbased #plantbasedbriefing #wfpb #chronicdisease #obesity #diabetes #cancer #nutrition   ========================== Original post: https://plantbasedhealthprofessionals.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/THE-KEY-BENEFITS-OF-PLANT-BASED-NUTRITION-1124.pdf  ========================= Plant-Based Health Professionals UK is an non-profit organization dedicated to providing education and advocacy on whole food plant-based nutrition and lifestyle medicine for prevention and treatment of chronic disease. In addition to practicing conventional medicine, they promote health and well-being using a plant-based lifestyle approach. They reaize there is no doubt that conventional medicine has resulted in some astonishing advances in patient care. However, the current model of healthcare in the UK focuses primarily on treating established disease, rather than emphasising interventions that could prevent or reduce the burden of chronic disease. They provide a valuable resource for the education of healthcare professionals and the general public alike and aim to empower individuals to take control of their own health.

Do you know what magical action has the power to boost your mood, bolster your immune system, banish stress, lessen pain, and foster connection? If you guessed "laughter," you're on target. Research consistently shows that laughter truly is one of life's best medicines, yet our stress-filled lives tend to leave little space for self-care and the healing power that laughing brings.

Why You Should Listen:  In this episode, you will learn about Metabolic Vulnerability Index (MVX) as an indicator of mortality and longevity. About My Guest: My guest for this episode is Dr. Darren Schmidt.  Darren Schmidt, DC is the Founder of The Nutritional Healing Center of Ann Arbor which is the largest non-insurance nutrition clinic in the country.  His purpose is to bankrupt pharmaceutical companies by teaching doctors how to improve health rather than treat symptoms.  He uses new and old clinical discoveries to solve complex chronic illness with only diet and supplements.  He uses MVX Plus, the best lab test to measure longevity and health, and it also directs the treatment plan. Key Takeaways: What is MVX? What are the 6 factors and 3 indices that are explored with MVX? How might MVX be a better metric for mortality than many conventionally-used metrics today? Can MVX be extrapolated to be used as a measure of health and longevity? What is GlycA?  What drives it? What tools can be used to lower GlycA? What is the connection between GlycA and hypercoagulation? Why is eGFR and kidney health often used on the context of predicting mortality? What is small HDL particle number?  How can it be optimized? What is the Inflammation Vulnerability Index? What is citrate?  What tools can be used to lower it when elevated? What is the connection between citrate and mitochondrial function? What is lactic acidosis? What is learned from looking at valine, leucine, and isoleucine? What steps may be taken if they are high?  If they are low? What is the Metabolic Malnutrition Index? When might a keto diet be appropriate? What does the Metabolic Vulnerability Index tell us? Is MVX impacted by genetics or epigenetics? What is the 7 Step Blueprint to Optimal Health? How do the 7 steps overlap with the 6 MVX factors?

Are you navigating perimenopause or menopause while also managing chronic health conditions? Or perhaps perimenopause has triggered an underlying, previously dormant issue? Traditional healthcare may not be enough to combat the symptoms, but do not fear! Today's guest is here to teach us how your nervous system, immune system, and hormones can all work together to support healing and longevity. This week, host Jenn Trepeck is joined by Dr. Jessica Drummond, Founder and CEO of The Integrative Women's Health Institute. Together, they explore how seemingly “silent” chronic conditions like endometriosis, pelvic pain, autoimmune disorders or even long covid, can complicate menopause—and what you can do about it. Dr. Drummond shares her insights on calming the nervous system, building metabolic health through nutrient-dense habits, and using tools like heart rate variability (HRV) to guide recovery. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, who discusses wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (00:00) The impact of menopause on silent chronic conditions(05:44) Dr. Jessica Drummond reflects on her professional journey in the chronic condition space(11:11) Common underlying chronic conditions affecting menopause(16:08) Discussion of the silent underlying conditions that can manifest later in life(25:43) Calming the nervous system to heal in a consistent way(30:50) The importance of your metabolic health in the form of nutrient-dense food, strength training, walking, hydration and circadian rhythm(32:09) Discussion of heart rate variability, recovery, and developing the art of sitting quietly(41:36) The importance of working with a health coach to plan for the future of your healthKEY TAKEAWAYS:Menopause and perimenopause symptoms can be overwhelming on their own. Still, when layered on top of chronic conditions like endometriosis, pelvic pain, autoimmune disorders, or post-viral syndromes (e.g., long COVID), it creates a compounded health challenge. Traditional training often overlooks the role of nutrition, nervous system regulation, and lifestyle in healing. Chronic conditions—especially during perimenopause—require a personalized, holistic strategy.Healing during menopause doesn't require drastic changes—small, consistent steps matter most. Start where it feels easiest, like mindfulness, nutrition, or gentle movement. Recovery and nervous system regulation are just as important as action. Tools like heart rate variability (HRV) can help track progress, showing that true resilience comes from balancing effort with rest.Integrating the nervous, immune, and hormone systems is the key to living a longer, more active, healthier life. When these systems are balanced and working together, they support overall well-being and longevity.QUOTES:         (10:04) “In my traditional physical therapy training, nutrition was not emphasized as a healing tool. It was more like you needed adequate nutrients to perform certain physical activities, but we didn't think about it from an anti-inflammatory standpoint.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond(13:59) “Research shows us that acute illnesses like infections trigger chronic diseases.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond(22:36) “It's exposing these underlying things that have been lying dormant, that we just brushed aside or pushed through because they weren't really standing in the way of us doing the things that we wanted to do.”  - Jenn Trepeck(40:19) “I think we make these plans expecting perfection, planning for this optimal, ideal day that never happens. So put these things in place so they happen even on the days where we don't feel a hundred percent, even on the days where nothing goes as planned.” - Jenn TrepeckRESOURCES:Become A Member of Salad with a Side of FriesJenn's Free Menu PlanA Salad With a Side of FriesA Salad With A Side Of Fries MerchA Salad With a Side of Fries InstagramUse Your Heart Rate Monitor to Improve Your Health                GUEST RESOURCES:The Integrative Women's Health InstituteIntegrative Women's Health  - Podcast Integrative Women's Health - PubMedInnovative Approaches to Chronic Pain with The Anodunos Method TeamGUEST BIOGRAPHY:Dr. Jessica Drummond, DCN, CNS, PT, NBC-HWC, is a leading expert in women's health and the Founder and CEO of The Integrative Women's Health Institute.

Money. Hard work. Privilege. Inheritance. Entitlement. Motivation. Success. All of these words can bring up a host of thoughts and feelings. Some of them tend to have positive connotations, yet many of them are super-charged with negativity. Shows such as "Succession" have brought fresh attention to the realm of the uber wealthy and the dramatic flavor of issues such as family feuds, excess, sibling rivalry, manipulation, and mental health issues including addiction.

SummaryWelcome to another inspiring episode of The Metabolism, Muscles, & Mindset Podcast with Ali Novitsky, MD, a board-certified obesity medicine physician and renowned fitness expert. In this episode, Dr. Novitsky explores the intricate relationship between energy and physical health —and why honoring your unique energy baseline is the key to sustainable wellness.Dr. Novitsky distinguishes between vibrational energy (influenced by thoughts and emotions) and natural energy (your innate rhythm). By understanding and respecting your baseline — whether it's calm and reflective or vibrant and fast-paced — you can unlock powerful strategies for physical consistency and vitality. From hormones and sleep to nutrition and exercise, Dr. Novitsky dives deep into how your physical health either thrives or struggles based on your energy regulation.She also introduces practical, science-backed tools for managing stress, creating nutrition strategies that work with your emotional bandwidth, and building an exercise routine that fosters longevity and vitality. Whether you identify as a low-energy “quiet strength” or a high-energy go-getter, this episode equips you to move in harmony with your body's needs and create sustainable results without burnout.Key Points• Understanding Energy Types: Vibrational energy comes from thoughts and feelings; natural energy is your body's default rhythm. Honoring your baseline unlocks consistent physical health.• Hormonal Impact: Elevated cortisol and ghrelin due to stress can drain your energy, affect sleep, increase hunger, and hinder fat loss.• The Power of Rest: Sleep isn't optional — it's foundational. Chronic deprivation leads to insulin resistance, emotional dysregulation, and GI issues.• Emotional Regulation = Physical Wellness: A clean emotional “house” helps manage stress and sets the stage for long-term physical commitment.• Mindful Nutrition Tools: Dr. Novitsky highlights intuitive eating, Mindful Macros®, and calculated macros, offering flexible frameworks for optimizing energy without emotional burnout.• Exercise for Longevity: Finding your “baseline minimum” in movement, not extremes, leads to sustained energy, strength, and vitality.Timestamps• 00:02 – Introduction to energy types: vibrational vs. natural energy• 02:15 – Why honoring your personal energy rhythm supports physical health• 04:29 – Rebalancing after energy overuse: Dr. Novitsky's post-conference crash• 06:46 – Cortisol, insulin, and ghrelin: how stress hormones zap your energy• 09:03 – Hunger, fatigue, and frustration: the hormonal cycle affecting fat loss• 11:13 – The underestimated role of sleep in energy and health• 13:25 – Emotional eating, guilt, and energy collapse• 15:48 – Keeping a “clean emotional house” as a path to regulation• 18:11 – Boundaries and toxic energy: how to protect your physical wellness• 20:13 – Nutrition strategies: macros, mindset, and intuitive tools• 22:34 – Protein, sugar, fiber, and alcohol: their energetic consequences• 24:57 – Being “snobby with extras” for balance and joy• 27:16 – Sustainable exercise: finding your sweet spot for movement• 29:35 – Final reflections: choose your focus area and build consistencyFollow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Socials⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠⁠⁠⁠Enroll TODAY⁠⁠⁠⁠• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment now open!

v DR. MICHELLE JORGENSEN, DDS After a decade and a half of studying and practicing dentistry and medicine so that she could keep others well, Dr. Michelle Jorgensen, DDS' own body was sick. As a young mom of four busy, growing children, she was stretched between a demanding business and a taxing home life. She had no energy and felt like she could barely keep her head above water. She couldn't sleep through the night or hold her dental instruments without pain and numbness in her hands and arms. Her diet had been whittled down to a few “safe” foods that she could eat without stomach pain, and her once very sharp memory couldn't remember crucial details about patients and procedures. Something was very wrong but a plethora of doctors, blood tests, scopes, and X-rays all told her it was stress.  There was one test the doctors didn't run and she asked for at the suggestion from a new practitioner friend—mercury toxicity.  “When my test results came back, I was floored,” says Dr. Jorgensen. “My mercury levels were so high they were off the charts. Finally, I had an answer, and it was simple. The mercury in those seemingly innocent fillings that I had been removing from my patients' teeth was poisoning me and my cells. After learning about my toxic mercury levels, I swung between disbelief and anger that, as a dentist, I hadn't been warned about this inherent danger, and profound relief that I had an answer for what was causing my body's systems to fail.” Her five-year path to recovery led Dr. Jorgensen to discover ways to improve her family's and her own health in all facets of life. Now, her new book breaks down what “health” really means for every cell in your body. In Living Well with Dr. Michelle: A Comprehensive Handbook for Optimal Health and Unlimited Energy (BenBella, May 20th, 2025), Dr. Michelle makes it simple, breaking down the true meaning of health at the cellular level and beyond. Drawing from time-tested wisdom and evidence-based modern science, she provides a clear, practical path to lasting well-being.  Watch Dr. Michelle's intro video here.  We talk about:             ●      How to Have the Energy You Want, Without Getting Lost in Today's Health Trends ●      The Secret to Lasting Energy: Your Cells ●      Fueling Your Body with What It Needs (Eating seasonally, prioritizing whole foods, staying hydrated, including health fats) ●      Creating a Healthy Environment for Your Cells (reduce toxins, manage stress, support you detox system, rest and recover) ●      Protecting Your Cells from Harm (boost your immune system, exercise, avoid overexposure from toxins, connect with nature) ●      Communicating with Your Cells (daily movement, deep breathing, rest, listen to your body's signals) ●      Why medicine is just a band-aid—Your cells do the healing      ●      Why your symptoms are not the enemy—They are the answer  ●      If you can keep one cell well, you can keep them all well—Introducing the Cell Well Model ●      The Fluoride controversy and brain health ●      Mercury toxicity and hidden dangers in dentistry- Dr. Michelle's personal journey  ●      Oxygen's connection to inflammation and what your mouth is telling you about your health   www.livingwellwithdrmichelle.com

How to Protect Your Power & ThriveSummaryIn this episode of Metabolism, Muscles, and Mindset, Dr. Ali Novitsky dives deep into one of the most essential skills for high-achieving women: energy conservation. Not just physical stamina—but the emotional and mental energy we often give away without realizing it.Dr. Novitsky shares how identifying your energy builders and drainers—from thoughts and behaviors to people and roles—can transform your well-being. She explains how control, overwhelm, and scarcity are common drains, and how awareness, boundaries, and neutrality can powerfully restore your energy.Listeners will explore how different roles (mother, doctor, partner, coach) impact energy differently, and how even positive habits can drain us if not balanced. Through practical mindset shifts like “and” and “yet” statements, Dr. Novitsky offers a framework to move from burnout to balance.She also discusses natural energy levels, the emotional triggers that drain us most (like restlessness and comparison), and how to work with your physical needs instead of pushing through exhaustion. This episode is full of real-life examples and tangible strategies to help you show up stronger—for yourself and others.Key Points• Energy Builders vs. Drainers: Awareness is key—what fills your cup and what quietly empties it?• Letting Go of Control: Many drainers are rooted in control and fear. Release equals relief.• The Roles We Play: Your energy response varies by role—mother vs. leader vs. partner. Identify the difference.• Neutrality is Power: Use simple “and” or “yet” thoughts to neutralize overwhelm and emotional charge.• Scarcity vs. Abundance: Scarcity is an energy thief. Abundance and staying in your own lane restore clarity.• Emotional Awareness: Feelings like restlessness and comparison link to old wounds—recognizing them is the first step to reclaiming power.• Natural Energy Levels: Know your baseline. Certain environments or people may require you to flex up or down, impacting energy.• Physical Needs Matter: Sometimes honoring your body's request (yes, even for ice cream!) is the most energy-conserving choice you can make.Timestamps• 00:02 – Defining energy conservation and mindset• 01:30 – The builder/drainer inventory• 02:20 – Role-based energy: different hats, different outputs• 04:45 – The cost of control• 06:00 – Thought reframes that conserve energy• 07:11 – Letting go of emotional responsibility in parenting & partnership• 09:30 – Scarcity, fear, and comparison as major energy drains• 11:50 – The “and” & “yet” tool for neutralizing emotional spikes• 13:30 – Fat loss, mindset, and emotionally neutral thoughts• 15:00 – Emotional triggers: restlessness, food, and history• 18:50 – Understanding and respecting natural energy levels• 21:30 – Creating energetic boundaries• 22:45 – Physical energy: rest, nutrition, and honoring cravings• 24:00 – The “why” behind conservation: alignment, growth, and joyReflection PromptAsk yourself:• What's one thing (a thought, role, or habit) you want to release because it drains you?• What's one energy builder you're ready to commit to right now?Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Socials⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠• ⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠• ⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠• ⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠⁠⁠Enroll TODAY⁠⁠⁠• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment now open!

Do you feel like you're the victim of ageism? Or--whether you're 30, 40, 50, or beyond–that you are too old to make your dreams come true? In Dr. Carla's work with thousands of people (as well as her own life journey), she has found that fears about aging can creep into our minds and cause anxiety and immobilizing self-doubt. And, as the benefits of youth are overemphasized in societies around the world, it's easy to go down the rabbit hole of feeling unworthy, no longer relevant, or stuck. But you have the power to age well–body, mind, and spirit–by making a few positive, simple shifts in your life. Getting older doesn't mean that you're no longer attractive or valuable. You don't need to be a victim of ageism or self-ageism! In fact, many find that their more mature years are the most vibrant and liberating.

Topics discussed include aging, maturity, confidence, sexiness, movement, positivity, body-mind-spirit, yoga, stretching, photography, work, life roles, models, career, film, volunteering, exercise, walking, running, hiking, group support, support groups, friendships, support, positive change, and connection.

SummaryIn this episode, of Metabolism, Muscles, and Mindset, Dr. Novitsky dives into one of her favorite topics as an obesity medicine doc and fitness enthusiast: the transformative link between exercise and energy. Listeners will gain insight into the bidirectional relationship between emotional and physical energy, the hormonal impacts of movement—including insulin sensitivity and cortisol regulation—and how exercise improves emotional regulation and stress resilience. She also touches on the importance of role models, confidence, and community, particularly for women, and how embodying strength becomes a purpose-driven, high-energy experience.She challenges the all-too-common belief that we're “too tired to exercise" and explores how breaking through that initial mental hurdle can unlock powerful benefits across physical, mental, and emotional energy systems.Exercise generates ATP, the body's basic energy currency, ramps up feel-good endorphins, and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) - enhancing mood, cognition, and memory. Consistency in movement builds stamina and lowers the energy cost of exercise over time, making it easier and more enjoyable to stay active.Dr. Novitsky encourages everyone to find their “baseline minimum”—the small, sustainable commitment to movement that keeps energy and confidence high, without burnout.Key Points• Breaking the Mindset Barrier: Exercise can feel tiring before it's energizing—but getting started is the key to unlocking its benefits.• Energy on All Levels: Movement elevates physical, emotional, and mental energy by producing ATP, endorphins, and BDNF.• Stamina Through Consistency: The more conditioned you are, the less energy it takes to move—and the more mental energy you free up.• Sleep & Timing: Exercise can improve sleep quality, depending on timing and intensity. Emotional regulation through movement sets the stage for restful nights.• Hormone Harmony: Strength training boosts insulin sensitivity and regulates key hormones like cortisol, leptin, and ghrelin for steady energy.• Emotional Regulation: Exercise fosters better thoughts by creating a calm, grounded state—reducing spirals and buffering behaviors.• Confidence & Purpose: Strength training enhances confidence, especially for women, and becomes a powerful tool for embodying purpose.• The Power of Community: Supportive environments elevate both energy and belief in what our bodies can achieve.Timestamps• 00:02 – The exercise-energy paradox: feeling too tired to move• 01:35 – How ATP and endorphins fuel physical and emotional energy• 02:20 – Why morning workouts set the tone for your day• 03:30 – BDNF and mental clarity: your brain's “topsoil”• 04:45 – The interconnected nature of physical, emotional, and mental energy• 06:00 – Exercise timing and its effect on sleep and emotional regulation• 07:11 – Bringing a “vacation mindset” to everyday life• 08:10 – Building stamina: why conditioning makes movement easier• 09:30 – Mental energy saved through physical conditioning• 10:45 – Emotional regulation through movement: less stress, better thoughts• 11:50 – Exercise, insulin sensitivity, and avoiding post-meal energy crashes• 13:30 – Hormonal impacts: cortisol, leptin, and ghrelin• 14:15 – Strength as confidence: how exercise becomes empowerment• 15:45 – Role models and community: elevating female strength• 16:30 – Finding your baseline minimum: the smallest step for maximum energyFollow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Socials⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠• ⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠• ⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠• ⁠⁠YouTube⁠Work with Dr. Ali• Beginner Strength Training Program – 12 months for only $199! ⁠⁠Enroll TODAY⁠⁠• Transform® 9.0 – Enrollment now open!

How to Craft the Love Relationship of Your DreamsAre you feeling stuck in a dead-end relationship? Do you want more in your romantic life but are afraid to let go of what you have? From a lack of sex or emotional intimacy to ongoing conflict, issues often arise in relationships that leave one or both partners feeling distressed. And in my work with individuals and couples, I've found that many people can't decide if it's best to leave a romantic relationship or stay in it for the long haul. It's no easy matter. And, the truth is, no one can tell you what path you should take; the decision--as hard as it might be--is ultimately up to you. In this episode, I'm joined by an international relationship and intimacy coach Ken Blackman who will help us dive deep into knowing when you might want to commit fully--or when you might want to let go. Topics discussed include sexual intimacy, infidelity, sex, connection, emotional connection, love, marriage, dating, love life, agreements, conflict, red flags, dealbreakers, divorce, commitment, betrayal, office romance, emotional infidelity, infidelity, narcissism, NPD, narcissistic personality disorder, abusive relationships, gaslighting, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, physical abuse, spiritual abuse, communication, meditation, and mindfulness.Please note that this episode contains sensitive material; listener discretion is advised.Emergency Assistance Note: If you or someone you know needs immediate support, please call your emergency services.
