Dr. Ira Rashbaum specializes in mind–body care and treatment of patients who have tension myoneural syndrome, previously known as tension myositis syndrome, a condition that causes pain and symptoms associated with tension and stress factors. His expertise is in diagnosing and treating individuals who have psychosomatic pain disorders. He has an extensive list of publications, national meeting presentations, and media appearances. As study guide committee chairperson of the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, he led a project that compiled information on advances in rehabilitation medicine for more than 10,000 physicians worldwide. This position placed him at the forefront of all aspects of rehabilitation medicine. Dr. Samuel Mann is a physician and researcher, specializing in hypertension. He has spent the past 40 years as a specialist in this condition, combining patient care, research and teaching at his institution. As a researcher, he has published 65 articles in medical and psychology journals, along with 10 book chapters on hypertension, and three books. His most recent book is “Hidden Within Us; A Radical New Understanding of the Mind-Body Connection (2022). He emphasizes that in most patients, hypertension is not a mind/body disorder. But when it is, it is not related to emotions, such as anger and anxiety that patients report, but to powerful repressed emotions, often related to a past history of stress or trauma, that are completely hidden from conscious awareness. Part 1 The discussion included the following topics: definitions of repressed and suppressed emotions; common emotions that patients tend to repress; extent to which the biomedical model may have to be augmented or replaced as a means of having a greater emphasis on emotions and their unrecognized relationship to some physical health conditions; strength of evidence supporting a connection between emotions and physical health conditions; and the role played by emotional trauma on the onset of various physical health conditions.

This week I'm sharing a conversation that could completely shift how you think about healing from trauma and chronic illness. My guest Lisa Erickson went from tech worker to energy healer after her own health crises showed her something profound: when we're dealing with trauma or chronic illness, we often disconnect from our bodies as a survival mechanism. But that same disconnection can block our healing.Lisa breaks down how chakras work as the organs in your energy anatomy, bridging your physical body, emotions, and spirit. What I love about her approach is how practical it is - you don't need to be "woo woo" or spend hours meditating. She shows you how to link simple energy practices to things you already do, like brushing your teeth.We dive deep into why the root chakra at your tailbone is the foundation for all healing (hint: it's connected to your immune system and adrenals), and she maps out how each energy center connects to specific body systems and healing opportunities.This isn't about bypassing medical care - it's about adding another layer of support that helps you feel safe in your body again.

August is National Wellness Awareness month which includes tending to our holistic health. Physical wellness matters and has been defined as "The ability to improve the functioning of our body through healthy living and good exercise habits."

Is porn anti-feminist? As a recovering feminist — my answer is yes. But the truth goes deeper: porn is anti-human.I'm Dr. Trish Leigh — cognitive neuroscientist and author of Mind Over Explicit Matter. When I spoke on Jubilee's Middle Ground with porn performers, I stood up for this: porn isn't empowerment — it's exploitation. Too many performers are groomed into the industry because they lack real education and support.Education is empowerment — that's why I'm here. To help you break porn's grip on your brain, your connection, your intimacy, and your humanity. Everything I share is backed by neuroscience, real data, and decades of study.

Leyla shares personal insights and practical advice for incorporating exercise into daily routines for better sleep.

In this conversation, Kyle Thompson discusses his journey in creating Undaunted Life and The Daily Blade, focusing on the need for a strong, biblical masculinity among Christian men. He explores the cultural influences that have led to a perceived softness in Christian masculinity, the importance of creating man-friendly churches, and the role of physical health in a man's life. The discussion also highlights the significance of equipping men to push back against darkness in society and the success of The Daily Blade as a daily devotional for men.

Does porn disrupt loyalty in relationships? Yes — and science backs it up.I'm Dr. Trish Leigh,  a cognitive neuroscientist helping men break free from porn-induced brain dysregulation and intimacy struggles. As the author of Mind Over Explicit Matter, I combine science and empathy to guide people toward real connection. When I sat down with porn performers on Jubilee's Middle Ground, this prompt came up. One performer said she used porn to spice up her relationship — but the truth is, that just ties your intimacy to hypersexuality, not real connection.Studies show porn rewires your brain for objectification, not bonding. Men who watch porn are more likely to see women as objects, not partners. Underneath it all is brain dysregulation — a hijacked reward system that kills true trust and real intimacy.Jubilee & LoveCommaNectar opened the door for this conversation — so if you haven't seen the episode yet, check it out. Just a heads up: if you're in recovery, stick here with me. I'll break this all down with the science and help you rebuild real loyalty and healthy intimacy that lasts.Send us a textSupport the showHi.

I wasn't addicted to porn — but I am here because someone I love was. And that changed everything.Is Masturbation Harmless or Harmful?I'm Dr. Trish Leigh, cognitive neuroscientist and author of Mind Over Explicit Matter. On Jubilee's Middle Ground, I sat down with porn performers and NoFap voices to bring a different perspective: not personal addiction, but years of deep neuroscience, brain maps, and real recovery work.Most porn users don't even know they're addicted—they just feel anxious, unfocused, disconnected, and stuck in a loop. I've seen thousands of brains that prove how porn hijacks your dopamine, rewires your reward system, and blocks real intimacy. This ties into the larger question of: Is Masturbation Harmless or Harmful?Huge appreciation to Jubilee & LoveCommaNectar for hosting this raw, important discussion.

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I'm sitting down with RNTer Archna Mehta who joined us a year ago after hitting a breaking point when she was trying on clothes during a shopping visit.

One of the big questions on Middle Ground was, “Were you addicted to porn?”If you've been here with me, you know — never. Not then, not now.I'm Dr. Trish Leigh, cognitive neuroscientist and author of Mind Over Explicit Matter. I sat down with porn performers on Jubilee's Middle Ground because people need to hear the truth: porn addiction is a silent tsunami wrecking real lives and genuine relationships.The only reason I'm in this work is because someone close to me — my friend Sam — almost lost his marriage to porn.

Hanna Kok shares her expertise on the surprising link between forgiveness and physical health, revealing why holding onto grudges causes hormonal imbalances and weakens the immune system. We explore the scientific evidence behind this connection and discuss a practical method for making forgiveness easier.• When we hold grudges, our muscles tighten, restricting blood flow and nutrient delivery throughout the body• Brain function decreases dramatically during conflict—the prefrontal cortex (responsible for wisdom and problem-solving) can switch off up to 85%• Stress emotions attach to cell receptors, triggering responses that put cells in overdrive and eventually lead to health problems• Different organs are sensitive to specific emotions—the liver responds to anger, lungs to grief, and the gut to feelings of abuse• Unforgiveness reduces energy available for immune function, making us more susceptible to illness• The forgiveness method includes identifying what triggered you, recognizing what it reveals about your own healing needs, and seeing the situation as an opportunity for growth• Practical techniques for releasing unforgiveness include journaling, mirror work, and meditationFor more information on improving health through forgiveness, download Hannah's app at hannahcook.com or visit ithrive.zoneSend us a text

Have you ever asked yourself: Am I sacrificing too much time with my wife and kids in pursuit of my career or financial goals? What small changes could I make right now to build more connection points and memories with my family? Am I making choices that line up with the kind of legacy and example I want to set for my children? Whether you're a career-driven dad, a business owner, or just trying to do your best for your family, this episode is an honest look at why intentional time, connection, and legacy matter far more than your next paycheck. This week, Larry takes us on a heartfelt journey inspired by his recent 50th birthday, reflecting on the advice he wishes he could have given his younger self during his 30s and 40s. With deep sincerity, he opens up about the “rookie mistakes” he made by spending years grinding in a demanding career—sacrificing precious time with his wife and kids in pursuit of financial success. Drawing from powerful examples, including an emotional moment from Tom Brady reflecting on the cost of greatness, Larry reminds us that while hustling to provide is noble, it often comes at a price that money can't buy back: time, connection, and memories with our loved ones. He shares statistics on how finances often strain marriages, highlights the importance of intentional living, and encourages dads to pause and assess what their hard work might be costing them outside the office. So if you've ever questioned if the grind is worth it, or worried about missing out on what truly matters, this one's for you.    Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: The Hidden Price of Success: Working 60, 70, or even 80 hours a week is celebrated by many men. Yet, as Larry reveals, this dedication is often worn as a badge of honor. While providing for a family is noble, the cost can be severe. Countless hours spent at work are hours lost with children, spouses, and friends. Larry's own journey included long weeks on the road and executive-level sacrifices in the medical industry. Despite earning a good living, he found himself disconnected and unfulfilled. The Irreplaceable Asset: Time with Family: Time is the one thing every parent has in equal measure—24 hours each day. Although bank accounts and careers differ, the hours we have with loved ones are finite. Larry highlights this by referencing Tom Brady's emotional reflection on his father. Even with record-breaking success and financial security, Brady admitted to sacrificing precious moments with his children. This lesson resonates with many fathers who struggle to strike a healthy balance. Wealth, Marriage, and the Stress Factor: Finances play a leading role in marital stress. In fact, 37% of divorces are linked primarily to money disagreements. Arguments about spending, saving, and debt are rampant in households. Sometimes, financial infidelity—like secret spending—can quietly erode trust. Moreover, differences in money personalities between spouses can further complicate things. One partner may be a saver while the other prefers to spend, creating ongoing tension. Rethinking the Grind: Society tells us we must stick with what we know, even if it costs us happiness. Larry demonstrates that it's possible to shift careers, learn new skills, and pursue passions. He provides examples of his own path, as well as others who made midlife career changes successfully. There are more ways to generate income today than ever before. From real estate to side hustles, passive revenue is accessible for those willing to be creative and disciplined. Practical Advice for Fathers: Larry urges fathers to pause and consider what the grind is truly costing them. Is it worth missing key moments with your children? Instead of only focusing on earning, he recommends open communication with your spouse. Aligning financial goals can ease the burden and reduce the need for endless overtime. Fathers don't have to choose between security and connection. With intention, you can build both. This episode is packed with raw, practical wisdom on finding balance, embracing new opportunities, and living with intentionality. Here's what research and observation highlight about financial issues in relationships: Almost 3 out of 10 couples are secretly spending money that the other person doesn't know about. Money fights show up in nearly 40 to 50% of all marital arguments. 27% of couples or partners admit to secretly spending, and 10% say it will lead directly to divorce thedadedge.com/friday517 thedadedge.com/mastermind Brady on Family vs football  

In this episode, the host republished an interview with guest Robbie Holz to highlight an important discussion about the secrets of Aboriginal healing. Robbie delves into her late husband Gary's transformative journey into the Australian Outback, where he sought healing from multiple sclerosis through Aboriginal spiritual practices. She shares how the Aboriginal philosophy intertwines the body, mind, and spirit for holistic healing. Robbie also recounts her own healing experiences and the profound lessons learned from the Aboriginal people she met. Together, they explore emotional and spiritual alignment, highlighting the significance of letting go of negative emotions and embracing higher frequencies of love. The episode also touches on the role of guardian angels, the power of willingness, and the importance of self-love in one's healing journey. About Robbie: Robbie Holz is an internationally respected healer and medium, frequent media guest and an author of the award-winning books read in 43 countries: "Secrets of Aboriginal Healing" and "Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening." Robbie's life was drastically altered in 1985. After a difficult 36-hour delivery, while giving birth to her child, Robbie was given a blood transfusion to "perk her up faster".  Unfortunately the transfusion was tainted with Hepatitis C, a disease often referred to as the silent killer. Like a Trojan horse, the virus hid in her body--until it confidently and openly declared war seven years later. Robbie was in for the fight, and spiritual awakening, of her life. Due to her reaction to the experimental Hepatitis treatment, Robbie developed fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, temporary brain damage, and became bedridden for 7 months. Since Western medicine was no longer able to help her, Robbie set out to find alternative ways to survive and recover. She ultimately healed herself of Hepatitis C, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome and treatment-induced temporary brain damage, described in her award-winning memoir Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening. Her latest book is "Angels in Waiting: How to Reach Out to Your Guardian Angels and Spirit Guides." The companion guidebook is "Vibrant Living: Braving the Pandemic with Help from Your Guardian Angel."
