Do you find yourself saying "I'll be good tomorrow" while beating yourself up for every imperfect choice?In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Orlena reveals the hidden mental patterns that are secretly sabotaging your health goals - and why willpower alone will never be enough.Drawing from the groundbreaking work on Positive Intelligence, she exposes the nine "saboteurs" living in your head: from the Controller who demands perfection, to the Pleaser who puts everyone else first, to the Victim who blames circumstances for every setback.Here's what you'll discover:The Judge and Nine Saboteurs Framework - Learn to identify the specific negative thought patterns that keep you stuck in cycles of self-defeat, starting with the inner "judge" that kicks off every bout of self-criticismWhy Your Strengths Become Your Weaknesses - Understand how the very traits that make you successful in other areas of life (like being a high achiever or wanting to help others) can actually work against your health goals when they tip into negative brain modeThe Reframing Revolution - Master the art of shifting from destructive self-talk to empowering inner dialogue, transforming thoughts like "I'm failing" into "I'm learning and growing"Through a powerful real-life story about a neighbor trapped in victim mentality, Dr. Orlena shows how these patterns play out in daily life - and more importantly, how awareness and reframing can set you free.If you're ready to stop fighting your own mind and start working with it, this episode will give you the tools to identify your personal saboteurs and begin the transformation from negative to positive brain.Your health journey starts in your head - isn't it time you got your mind on your side?Podcast Index and Sign up for Weekly Emails: https://www.drorlena.com/blog/index-of-podcasts-and-blog-posts Looking for support?

Send us a textBONE HEALTH REVOLUTION: THE 3-MINUTE SOLUTION FOR LIFELONG STRENGTHIn this eye-opening episode, Dr. Orlena speaks with bone health expert Dr. Tracey Clissold about the "silent epidemic" affecting millions of women and the surprisingly simple solution that takes just minutes a day.Did you know we only have until age 30 to build the skeleton that must last us a lifetime? After that, we begin losing bone density—with losses accelerating dramatically during menopause when women can lose up to 20% of their bone mass in just a few years. This hidden decline puts two-thirds of women at risk for life-altering fractures as they age.The good news? Dr. Clissold reveals her groundbreaking research showing how specific "bone-jarring" movements performed for just 2-3 minutes daily can increase bone density by 3-5%—effectively reversing years of natural bone loss. And contrary to popular belief, walking and most other exercises don't create enough force to stimulate this bone growth.You'll also discover the critical nutritional triad supporting bone health: proper calcium intake (most women only get 70% of what they need), optimal protein consumption for both muscle and bone strength, and the often-overlooked vitamin D connection.Whether you're 30 or 60, this conversation offers actionable strategies to strengthen your skeleton and prevent the devastating fractures that can derail healthy aging. Listen now to transform your bone health in just minutes a day!For more information about the OSTEO-GAINS Bone Health Program, please visit our Website and Instagram.
