A dysregulated nervous system will stall body recomposition no matter how dialed the nutrition is or how consistent the training is. Inside today's episode, I dig into trauma as a physiological variable rather than a soft emotional topic, and why most coaching certifications skip this conversation entirely. I break down the autonomic nervous system and HPA axis interplay, the two nervous system presentations , and why the cortisol literature looked contradictory for years.Topics discussed: - Trauma as a Spectrum- Autonomic Nervous System Dysregulation- HPA Axis and Cortisol Output- Sympathetic Dominance Presentation- The Dissociative Subtype- Cortisol Patterns Over Time- Childhood vs Adult Trauma- Inverted Diurnal Rhythm- Lifestyle and Clinical Interventions- The Coach's Role and Scope---------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.metabolismschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- Stay Connected: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: SamMillerScience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Elite performance does not come from chasing more hacks. It comes from knowing what matters, cutting what does not, and executing when conditions are not perfect. In this episode of The Game Changing Attorney Podcast, Michael Mogill sits down with Dr. Andy Galpin to break down what separates truly high performers from everyone else. From toughness and self-talk to sleep, strength training, and resilience, Dr. Galpin explains why better performance starts with fewer distractions and better constraints. Here's what you'll learn: Why toughness means producing even when the conditions are working against you How to identify the real constraints holding back your energy, focus, and performance What it takes to build resilience through sleep, strength training, and smarter recovery Stop chasing every new protocol. The people who perform at the highest level focus on what actually moves the needle.

Performance nutrition in elite sport is often discussed in terms of meal plans, supplements, and macronutrient targets. However, effective practice in professional environments depends just as much on education, trust, communication, and the ability to translate scientific principles into decisions athletes can act on under real-world constraints. In this episode, Dr James Morehen discusses his work across elite rugby, football, and combat sports, with particular attention to the demands of professional rugby. The conversation explores how practitioners support athletes in a high-impact collision sport, including fuelling for training and match play, managing body composition without reducing athletes to arbitrary numbers, addressing recovery from muscle damage and injury, and developing practical systems around game-day nutrition. The episode also provides insight into the realities of building a career in performance nutrition, including the importance of applied experience, interdisciplinary collaboration, and learning how to coach athletes rather than simply prescribe to them.

Important correction: this appears as 101144, not 101176. Good for anxiety, depression, sleep quality, cognition, autistic behavior, and EEG-related outcomes while still keeping the evidence cautious.Lin, F. W., et al. “Effects of Tibetan Singing Bowl Intervention on Psychological and Physiological Health in Adults: A Systematic Review.” 2025. Useful as another recent review angle, especially for psychological health, physiological measures, HRV, and brainwave-related discussion. Keep it secondary behind Stanhope and Cai.Landry, Jayan Marie. “Physiological and Psychological Effects of a Himalayan Singing Bowl in Meditation Practice: A Quantitative Analysis.” American Journal of Health Promotion 28, no. 5 (2014): 306–309. Use for the controlled relaxation study: 51 participants, randomized crossover design, singing bowl exposure or silence before directed relaxation.Goldsby, Tamara L., Michael E.

Mills. “Effects of Singing Bowl Sound Meditation on Mood, Tension, and Well-Being: An Observational Study.” Journal of Evidence-Based Complementary & Alternative Medicine 22, no. 3 (2017): 401–406. Use for reductions in tension, anger, fatigue, depressed mood, anxiety, and stress after singing bowl meditation. Good, but frame as observational, not definitive.Rio-Alamos, Cristina, et al. “Acute Relaxation Response Induced by Tibetan Singing Bowl Sounds: A Randomized Controlled Trial.” European Journal of Investigation in Health, Psychology and Education 13, no. 2 (2023): 317–328. Use for Tibetan singing bowl treatment compared with progressive muscle relaxation and a waiting-list control in anxious nonclinical adults.Walter, Nina, et al. “Neurophysiological Effects of a Singing Bowl Massage.” Medicina 58, no. 5 (2022): 594. Use for EEG, ECG, and respiration during singing bowl massage; the authors interpret the results as a shift toward a more mindful or meditative state.Goldsby, Tamara L., et al. “Mood, Emotional, and Spiritual Well-Being Interrelationships.” Religions 13, no. 2 (2022). Useful follow-up for spiritual well-being, emotional interpretation, and how people understand sound-healing experiences.Sound, Anxiety, HRV, and Brainwave CautionMallik, Adiel, and Frank A. Russo. “The Effects of Music & Auditory Beat Stimulation on Anxiety: A Randomized Clinical Trial.” PLOS ONE 17, no. 3 (2022): e0259312. Use this carefully for the broader point that sound-based treatments can reduce somatic and cognitive state anxiety. Do not use it as proof that singing bowls automatically entrain brainwaves.Ingendoh, Ruth Maria, Ella S. Posny, and Angela Heine. “Binaural Beats to Entrain the Brain? A Systematic Review of the Effects of Binaural Beat Stimulation on Brain Oscillatory Activity, and the Implications for Psychological Research and Intervention.” PLOS ONE 18, no. 5 (2023): e0286023. Very useful caution source. Use it when warning against overclaiming “brainwave entrainment” and frequency-healing claims.Vilímek, et al. 2022. Low-frequency sound / HRV / vibroacoustic-related research. Use cautiously if you want to discuss low-frequency vibration, body sensation, and autonomic response.

Strong source for questioning popular origin stories around “Tibetan” singing bowls.Joffe, Ben. “Anthropology and Tibetan Buddhism / Cultural Commodification / Tibetan Mystique.” 2015. Use for the larger argument about how Tibetan/Himalayan aura gets packaged in Western spiritual markets. Good support for the “Tibet as imagined storehouse of hidden wisdom” point.Scheidegger, Daniel A. “Tibetan Ritual Music.” Use for actual Tibetan Buddhist ritual sound: bells, cymbals, long horns, drums, chant, and liturgical soundscape. This helps separate real Tibetan ritual sound from overblown modern singing-bowl mythology.Lopez, Donald S. Prisoners of Shangri-La: Tibetan Buddhism and the West.

You're already doing the hard part, showing up and training. This is about getting MORE results from what you're already doing.What you'll get by dialing in recovery & nutrition: Better energyBetter recoveryBetter body compositionSmall changes → big results over timeRecovery is the body's process for restoring homeostasis.The human body is designed to tackle stress—we either adapt or perish. Physiological stress that is not followed by adequate recovery can, over time, compromise homeostasis and immune function, increasing the probability of injury, illness and the onset of nonfunctional overreaching or overtraining. Listen to this episode on how to actually incorporate active recovery and the tools to help you get the best results in the gym!!!Connect with Me:Instagram: sarahtmwellness1:1 Coaching: Schedule a free discovery call! Join my newsletter!!!!!Zebra- My favorite lip gloss & deodorant- code: sarahdavies Thesis- Nootropics to help with focus & stress- code: sarahtmwellness LiveHealthIllie - All low-toxic finds in one shop- code:sarahdavies Sun & Moo Tallow-Based Skincare - code: sarahdavies Prime Protein- 15% off Discount (my fave protein powder) Buoy Electrolytes (no sugar, 87+ trace minerals)- 20% off Find the Good Brand - code: sarahdavies10Royo Bread- High Protein, High Fiber Bread & Bagels- Code: sarahda10If you found this episode helpful, don't forget to share it with a friend or a family member and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform!

In this episode, Rahul Shah, MD, interviews Roger Härtl, MD about how physicians can sustain long, demanding careers by building “physiological reserve” and maintaining balance between work, family, personal interests, and physical well-being. They discuss how regularly stepping back to identify what truly matters in life is key to maintaining resilience and continuing to find meaning in patient care.

What is cultural distress? It is a negative response rooted in a cultural conflict where the patient lacks control over their situation. It results in more physiologic effects on the body resulting in allostatic overload. To prevent this, healthcare practitioners must use strategies such as cultural humility to help patients navigate healthcare. Come find the best ways to deliver culturally sensitive care in any setting.

Contributor: Alec Coston, MD Educational Pearls: What are nasal intubations and when do we use them? Nasal intubations function similarly to oral intubations with the end goal of passing an endotracheal tube (ETT) through vocal cords and into the trachea to allow for a patent and secure airway, but differ in the main access point for the ETT (nare v.s. mouth). Nasal Intubations are seldom preferred to oral intubations as they carry risk for inducing bleeding from trauma to the nasal passages.  Indications for nasal intubations include: Anatomical abnormalities that may make access through the mouth difficult (i.e. tumors, macroglossia, or rare dental hardware that clenches the jaw shut). Physiological states such as severe angioedema.  Nasal intubations are often done with the patient awake and could be advantageous if the patient is presenting in a severely hypoxic state such that prolonged hypoxia in a traditional RSI protocol may be detrimental. A 2023 retrospective analysis in Germany found that nasal intubations were associated with requiring less sedation than oral intubations and had more spontaneous breathing during hospitalization than oral intubations. How is a nasal intubation performed? Consider the use of an anxiolytic medication such as versed to calm the patient down but not fully sedate them. If there is adequate time without immediate patient compromise, consider glycopyrrolate to reduce airway secretions and dry up the mucous membranes. Consider the use of Afrin or other local vasoconstrictor in target nare to minimize epistaxis.    Use 5% lidocaine ointment and lubricate an NPA and place it into the target nare. This will allow for local anesthesia as well as help to open up the nare slightly more.  Take 5% lidocaine ointment and place it on a tongue depressor and move it around the back of the tongue, allowing it to further anesthetize the oropharynx.  Remove the NPA and atomize/nebulize 4% lidocaine liquid into the nare and into the oropharynx for further anesthesia.  Insert the ETT without the bronchoscope through the nare and allow it to pass about 10 cm until visible in the oropharynx. This allows for a "clean" plastic tunnel to pass the bronchoscope through. Advance both the ETT and bronchoscope, spraying lidocaine through the bronchoscope while advancing to allow for continued numbing.  Pass the ETT through the cords and inflate.  At this point, stronger sedation medications such as ketamine and propofol may be considered but the use of a paralytic like succinylcholine and rocuronium may not be needed to allow the patient to maintain their own negative pressure ventilation.  Which nare is the best to go through? Most patients will have their right nare be the best (away from the septal deviation) according to a meta-analysis by Tan et al.  The right nare was generally associated with less epistaxis and lower intubation times.  However, do not always default to the right nare, and test which nare is more patent by occluding one nare at a time and assessing which one is less resonant  (less resonant = more patent).  Key Takeaway? Nasal intubations are rarer than oral intubations and can be more technically difficult, but may offer advantages in patients with difficult oral airways, but should never be first line.    References: Grensemann J, Gilmour S, Tariparast PA, Petzoldt M, Kluge S.

In this episode of The Light Inside, we delve into the complex interplay between trauma, visibility, and reintegration (healing). Our guest, Steve Sapourn, shares his deeply personal journey of working through the lasting effects of sexual abuse trauma. Steve speaks with striking honesty about the struggle to feel worthy, known, and fully seen while also carrying the impulse to remain hidden and unnoticed.We explore the concept of witnessing as a powerful tool for healing. Witnessing involves the paced, relational experience of staying with what once felt too overwhelming to hold, without rushing it or turning it into a character verdict. This approach can help restore sequencing, meaning, and contact, thereby softening self-attack, reducing performative coping, and making more room for intimacy, grief, worthiness, and repair.Steve shares his experiences with various therapeutic approaches, including traditional talk therapy and somatic practices. He emphasizes the importance of understanding one's nervous system and how it can be conditioned by early trauma. Steve also discusses the need for clinicians to provide a clear framework for therapy, helping clients understand the goals and processes involved.Throughout the conversation, we touch on the challenges of couples therapy, the importance of building trust, and the role of self-compassion in the healing journey. Steve's story is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of being truly seen and held within relational spaces. Subscribe on Substack for additional clinical resources as we explore how witnessing can help reintegrate unresolved trauma, reduce shame, and foster a deeper sense of connection and belonging.Timestamps[00:01:46] Healing through witnessing trauma.[00:04:29] Witnessing as an alternative.[00:10:39] Trust building in therapy sessions.[00:12:44] Physiological responses in relationships.[00:16:58] Nervous system and therapy dynamics.[00:20:45] Performance in therapy sessions.[00:24:44] Predictive nature of the brain.[00:29:12] Childhood trauma and self-identity.[00:34:34] Vulnerability and personal growth.[00:37:55] Inner child healing through love.[00:42:47] Inner child's resilience and strength.[00:45:40] Growth through self-acceptance.[00:50:49] Self-acceptance and emotional support.[00:54:22] Parentification in childhood experiences.[01:02:49] Hero's journey and personal growth.[01:06:22] Worthiness of being helped.[01:11:08] The importance of witnessing.[01:12:34] New learning and the past.CreditsHost: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest: Steve SapournExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzProduction Team: Aloft Media GroupMusic: Courtesy of Aloft Media GroupConnect with host Jeffrey Besecker on LinkedIn.

Dr. Mike Hart interviews Dr. Russell Kennedy about chronic anxiety as a childhood safety adaptation that never turns off, driven more by a body-based "alarm" than by thinking. Kennedy explains why understanding anxiety and talk-based cognitive approaches often have limited effect because subcortical systems communicate through feeling; alarm sensations trigger the mind to generate worries, which can become dopamine-reinforced and addictive. He discusses sensitivity (often cited as 15–20% of the population), modern stressors like smartphones and social media reducing discomfort tolerance, and high-functioning anxiety in high achievers and physicians, with sleep as a key regulation marker. Kennedy emphasizes reconnecting mind and body and adult self with younger self using somatic techniques (body scanning, hand placement, "sensation without explanation," and the SHOULD acronym), notes trauma can occur without an overtly traumatic life, links dysregulated autonomic states to varied symptoms, and shares rapid tools like the physiological sigh and alternate nostril breathing, plus his "Sanity" app and AnxietyMD resources. Dr. Russell Kennedy is a physician, author, and anxiety expert whose work explores the deeper roots of chronic anxiety, especially the role of childhood stress, nervous system dysregulation, and the body's stored alarm response. In this episode, he explains why anxiety is not just a thinking problem but a feeling problem, how worry becomes a coping pattern that keeps people stuck, why high performers often live in a state of hidden dysregulation, and how self-connection, somatic awareness, and better sleep can help break the cycle. Through a blend of clinical experience, neuroscience, and personal insight, Kennedy helps listeners better understand where anxiety comes from and what it actually takes to heal it at the root.   Official site: https://www.dr-russ.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theanxietymd/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DrRussellKennedyTHEANXIETYMD   Therapies Mentioned Internal Family Systems (IFS): https://ifs-institute.com/ Somatic Experiencing / somatic therapy: https://traumahealing.org/ Physiological sigh: https://www.hubermanlab.com/newsletter/breathwork-protocols-for-health-focus-stress Alternate nostril breathing: https://www.health.harvard.edu/healthy-aging-and-longevity/alternate-nostril-breath   Pain / Neuroplasticity Resources Alan Gordon / Pain Psychology Center: https://painpsychologycenter.com/our-team Pain Reprocessing Therapy: https://www.painreprocessingtherapy.com/   Experts Mentioned David Goggins: https://davidgoggins.com/ Joseph LeDoux: https://www.joseph-ledoux.com/ Dr. Ethan Russo: https://ethanrusso.org/ Clinical endocannabinoid deficiency paper (PubMed): https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15159679/   Show Notes 00:00 Welcome to the Hart2Heart Podcast 01:19 Anxiety Starts in the Body 03:17 Sensitivity and Modern Stress 05:58 The Dopamine Worry Loop 08:08 Self Connection Over Self Punishment 09:09 High Functioning Anxiety and Burnout 12:41 Redefining Success Internally 17:19 Discipline vs Dysregulation 21:46 Mind Body Child Separation 27:10 Finding the Alarm Sensation 29:16 Somatic Steps to Soothe Alarm 33:18 Why We Should Say Alarm 35:07 Medicine Limits and SSRIs 35:36 Medicine Misses Root Causes 36:57 Trauma Behind Weird Symptoms 38:58 Fibro IBS and Nervous System 42:31 Forgiveness and Doctor Burnout 50:51 Biohacking Anxiety Spiral 56:56 Somatic Healing and Spirit 01:02:50 Psychedelics Need Foundation 01:03:39 Physiological Sigh Tools 01:06:24 App Plug and Farewell   The Hart2Heart podcast is hosted by family physician Dr. Michael Hart, who is dedicated to cutting through the noise and uncovering the most effective strategies for optimizing health, longevity, and peak performance.

Nausea is a common side effect when ingesting psilocybin mushrooms, usually most pronounced during the “come up” and typically leveling out for the remainder of the trip, although the extent and duration of nausea can vary greatly among individuals.Today, we'll look at a few different perspectives on why nausea can happen, as well as some tips for avoiding it. We'll also share how nausea played an integral part in one client's intentional psychedelic experience, so tune in for a comprehensive conversation surrounding nausea and psilocybin!Key TakeawaysDiverse Biological Triggers: Nausea is primarily caused by the interaction of fungal compounds (like indigestible chitin, tannins, and beta-glucans) with the human body, as well as the activation of 5-HT2A and 5-HT3 receptors in the gut.Physiological vs. Psychospiritual Lenses: Identifying the specific causes of discomfort is essential for choosing the right approach; symptoms may stem from physical digestion or from "somatic resistance" and emotional baggage.Strategic Remedies: Depending on the trigger, the transition can be managed through remedies like lemon tekking and dietary preparation, or by intentionally "leaning in" to the experience as a beneficial psychospiritual purge.-This episode is supported by North Spore, helping people explore the wellness benefits of legal functional mushrooms.

A new trend of young people battling stress by rediscovering beauty in their surroundings is sweeping through Chinese social media, amassing millions of views on platforms such as Dou yin and Xiao hong shu.通过在周边环境中重新发现美来缓解压力，这一新趋势正在中国社交媒体上流行开来，在抖音和小红书等平台上积累了数百万浏览量。Color Walk, as it is called, involves participants selecting a specific color theme before heading out and then documenting everything that matches the chosen shade during a leisurely stroll through a neighborhood, or even during daily commuting.Color Walk（色彩漫步）指的是参与者先选定一个颜色主题，然后在街区悠闲散步甚至日常通勤时，记录下与该颜色相关的一切。Yang Zheng, 29, who works in the publishing industry in Qingdao, Shandong province, said the idea of Color Walk had thrilling resonance when she first came across it on Dou yin. "Whether one is experiencing cultural settings or passing through natural scenery, it's a great thing to share," she said.29岁的杨铮在山东省青岛市从事出版行业。她说，当她在抖音上第一次看到Color Walk的想法时，产生了强烈的共鸣。"无论是在文化氛围中还是在自然风光中，分享都是一件很棒的事情，"她说。A week ago, Yang started a Color-Walk sharing group on WeChat, which has since attracted about 45 members, mostly from Generation Z. Every evening, the group decides on a "Color of the Day" and members share photos matching the theme.一周前，杨铮在微信上成立了一个色彩漫步分享群，吸引了约45名成员，其中大多数是Z世代。每天晚上，群里决定一个"今日颜色"，成员们分享与主题相符的照片。The activity is aimed at helping people rediscover amusement in their otherwise monotonous lives, she said, adding that it also helps participants unwind and relieve stress.她说，这项活动旨在帮助人们在原本单调的生活中重新发现乐趣，并补充说，这也有助于参与者放松身心，缓解压力。Yang cited her own example. A few days ago, when she got carsick on her way home from work, she remembered the day's Color Walk theme and started looking for matches in the passing scenery outside the window.杨铮以自己为例。几天前，她在下班回家的路上晕车，她想起了当天的色彩漫步主题，开始在窗外的风景中寻找相匹配的颜色。"Quite unexpectedly, it slowly relieved my motion sickness. In addition, I also happened to notice things that I had barely noticed before," she said."出乎意料的是，它慢慢地缓解了我的晕车。此外，我也注意到了以前几乎没有注意到的东西，"她说。Hu, a 19-year-old university student in Lu'an, Anhui province, was drawn to Color Walk as a natural extension of his love for documenting life.胡先生是安徽省六安市的一名19岁大学生，他被色彩漫步吸引，因为这满足了他对记录生活的热爱。"It lets me record my days in a more interesting way," he said, adding that the activity's core appeal lies in its ability to arouse people's love for life. "We usually overlook many small details in our everyday life, like say a fire hydrant, which becomes more visible during a Color Walk themed 'red'. It makes our ordinary feel a little extraordinary."他说："这让我以一种更有趣的方式记录我的生活。"他补充说，这项活动的核心吸引力在于它能唤起人们对生活的热爱。"我们通常忽略了日常生活中的许多小细节，比如消防栓，在以'红色'为主题的色彩漫步中，消防栓变得更加显眼。它让我们的平凡感觉有点不平凡。"Xu Gaoyang, a psychotherapist at Beijing Anding Hospital of Capital Medical University, said the activity is a practical application of a psychological technique known as "grounding", which has two objectives — actively diverting attention and setting a small, controllable goal.首都医科大学附属北京安定医院心理治疗师徐高阳表示，这项活动是一种被称为"接地气"的心理技术的实际应用，它有两个目标——积极转移注意力和设定一个可控的小目标。"Think of our mood as an airplane. When it hits turbulence, 'grounding' helps it land steadily. By fixing our attention on something in the external environment — in this case, a color — we can quickly anchor ourselves in the present moment, leading to a sense of stability and calm," he said.他说："把我们的情绪想象成一架飞机。当它遇到湍流时，'接地气'帮助它平稳着陆。通过将注意力集中在外部环境的某个东西上——比如一种颜色——我们可以迅速让自己扎根于当下，从而产生稳定和冷静的感觉。"Physiological effects生理效应Xu noted that different colors can have varied physiological effects. Cooler tones, such as blue and green, tend to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, slowing heart rate and promoting relaxation. Warmer colors, such as red and orange, can stimulate the sympathetic nervous system, boosting energy and alertness.徐高阳指出，不同的颜色会产生不同的生理效应。较冷的色调，如蓝色和绿色，往往会激活副交感神经系统，减缓心率，促进放松。较暖的颜色，如红色和橙色，可以刺激交感神经系统，增加能量和警觉性。Choosing a theme color and engaging with one's surroundings provides a sense of control and self-care that is often more significant than the color itself, he said.他说，选择一个主题色并与周围环境互动会带来一种控制感和自我关怀，这往往比颜色本身更重要。According to Xu, young people today experience a kind of "purpose fatigue", as they are inundated by achievement-oriented goals, career pressures and societal expectations. As a result, they are creating activities that seem purposeful, but at the same time are not very demanding and allow them the opportunity to relax, he added.徐高阳称，如今的年轻人经历着一种"目标疲劳"，因为他们被以成就为导向的目标、职业压力和社会期望所淹没。他补充说，因此，他们正在创造一些看似有目的，但同时又要求不高，让他们有机会放松的活动。Wang Wenda, director of psychological health education at Xinhua College of Ningxia University, said these small goals and actions activate the brain's drive, and the sense of achievement from completing minor tasks helps alleviate feelings of powerlessness while enhancing self-efficacy.宁夏大学新华学院大学生心理健康教育教研室主任王文达表示，这些小目标和行动激活了大脑的动力，完成小任务带来的成就感有助于减轻无力感，同时提高自我效能感。The popularity of Color Walk reflects a broader shift among young people, as it is a low-cost, easily accessible and achievable positive experience, Wang said.王文达说，色彩漫步的流行反映了年轻人的一个更广泛的转变，因为它是一种低成本、容易获得和可以达成的积极体验。"You don't have to wait for life to be perfect to allow yourself to feel good. You can use small actions to gain a sense of pleasure, relaxation and control. In an environment of intense competition and uncertainty, it allows people to carve out a small world of their own," he added."你不必等到生活完美才让自己感觉良好。你可以通过微小的行动获得愉悦感、放松感和掌控感。在激烈竞争和不确定的环境中，它可以让人们开辟出属于自己的小世界，"他补充说。grounding /ˈɡraʊndɪŋ/ n. 接地气，立足当下parasympathetic /ˌpærəˌsɪmpəˈθetɪk/ adj. 副交感神经的sympathetic /ˌsɪmpəˈθetɪk/ adj. 交感神经的self-efficacy /ˌself ˈefɪkəsi/ n. 自我效能感

Or being in a calorie surplus to build muscle.But very rarely do you hear people talk about the value of intentionally spending time eating at maintenance. And that's a mistake.Because spending time at maintenance can provide a wide range of metabolic, physiological, behavioral, and psychological benefits that support long-term body composition progress.In this episode of the Chasing Clarity Health & Fitness Podcast, I'm joined once again by my good friend Jeff Hoehn, host of the Mind Muscle Connection Podcast, for Episode 2 of our monthly podcast collaboration.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:INTRO TO THE TOPIC OF THE OVERLOOKED BENEFITS OF EATING AT MAINTENANCETHE METABOLIC BENEFITS OF EATING AT MAINTENANCE THE PHYSIOLOGICAL BENEFITS OF EATING AT MAINTENANCETHE BEHAVIORIAL BENEFITS OF EATING AT MAINTENANCE THE PSYCHOLOGICAL BENEFITS OF EATING AT MAINTENANCE HOW CAN PERIODS OF EATING AT MAINTENANCE BE USED ACROSS THE YEAR & BETWEEN PHASES? If you've ever wondered whether spending time eating at maintenance is productive or necessary, this episode will give you a much deeper understanding of why it can play such an important role in a well structured body composition plan.WHERE TO CONNECT WITH ME:Follow Brandon on IG: https://www.instagram.com/brandondacruz_/Email: Bdacruzfitness@gmail.comFor Info on Brandon's Coaching Services: https://form.jotform.com/bdacruzfitness/coachinginquiryBrandon's Website: https://www.brandondacruzfit.comMy Reading Recommendations: THE MUSCLE & STRENGTH PYRAMIDS https://getdpd.com/cart/hoplink/25469?referrer=1l54og96lf1ccw

In this special “PICU Doc On Call Shorts” episode, pediatric ICU physicians Dr. Monica Gray, Dr. Pradip Kamat, and Dr. Rahul Damania break down the concept of Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP).

Part 2 of our recent conversation with Andres Gomez Emilsson asks whether humanity should create machines capable of real consciousness and intention. We explore how artificial minds would feel, what they would desire, and why their motivations might drift far from human needs. The discussion examines the risks of building entities with their own internal harmony, suffering, and evolutionary direction. What emerges is a sober look at whether a machine god is something humanity actually wants.Part 1: https://youtu.be/sveAvEU9ZZQPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADOX LOST PRE-SALE: https://buy.stripe.com/7sY7sKdoN5d29eUdYddEs0bHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-herePARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go! 00:00:00 Framing of artificial consciousness00:05:39 Limits of simulation and what counts as real experience00:10:10 Architectures that might support unified consciousness00:13:17 Feeling, stakes, and the origins of motivation00:16:02 Binding and coherence in biological and artificial systems00:21:19 Intention, internal experience, and projected futures00:26:27 Should artificial consciousness be created00:29:58 Why people want AGI and how bias shapes belief00:35:29 AI as an amplifier of human intention00:41:14 Tools for autonomy versus creating synthetic beings00:47:04 Social divergence and the future of AI entrepreneurship00:51:17 Artificial consciousness as a new lineage of life00:57:06 Desire, autonomy, and alien motivation01:03:35 Long-tail dynamics of conscious experience01:10:47 Why standard suffering metrics miss the extremes01:12:10 DMT and the treatment of cluster headaches01:20:09 Consciousness distributed through the body01:21:48 Psychedelics and large-scale system recalibration01:26:13 Systems must contain a model of “better” to self-organize01:33:34 Physiological roots of consciousness and future directions #AGI #ArtificialConsciousness #MachineConsciousness #ConsciousnessStudies #QualiaResearch #AIPhilosophy #AIethics #AISafety #FutureOfAI #MindAndMachine #DemystifySci #physicspodcast, #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

For the first part of my career, I was in the thick of a Fortune 50 company, witnessing firsthand how massive organizational change affects everyone from senior leaders down to the individual. We've all been there: a restructure or a merger that makes perfect sense on paper but turns into pure chaos during execution. Communication breaks down, productivity drops, and suddenly, you're losing key people you can't afford to replace. Most leaders think they lose talent because the change was "hard," but I've learned it's actually the chaos and ambiguity that breaks people.   In this episode, we're diving into the science of why prolonged uncertainty is a chronic stressor that builds up what we call Allostatic load—the psychological wear and tear that leads to burnout and talent loss. I'm sharing a framework to help you move from managing chaos to managing the human experience of change. We'll discuss the four non-negotiables: transparency, realistic timelines, supporting your "invisible labor" carriers, and building true psychological safety. It's time to stop breaking our best people and start building a change infrastructure that actually works. Stacie For more episodes, visit StacieBaird.com.

When interiors meet intention: a dynamic panel on how color theory, holistic living, sustainable materials, and design thinking come together to redefine residential spaces for 2025 and beyond. Sherwin Williams set out to cover Earth with beautiful colors over 150 years ago. 1866, Henry Sherwin and Edward Williams founded the company in Cleveland, Ohio, on a mission really. And the result is a company dedicated to delivery of the  best in paints, coatings and related products to discerning clients all over the world. That dedication was evident from the start with the hiring of Percy Neyman, the very first chemist employed by an American paint manufacturer. Sherwin Williams continues to set the bar high and provide the design community with the essential tools to create superior projects. Sherwin Williams is commitment to supporting the design community, which is why they sponsor programs, like this one. They are also dedicated to a betterment philosophical approach which is why they selected ‘wellness” as the topic for this talk.Thank you Sherwin Williams for your tireless support. In this timely conversation, experts from across interior design and sustainable living explore what it means to design for wellness in 2025. Moderated by Sue Wadden and Ashlynn Bourque of Sherwin-Williams, the panel features voices from: Jeanne Chung (Cozy, Stylish, Chic) — known for crafting spaces that blend comfort, style, and emotional balance. Julee Ireland (Julee Ireland Design Studio) — bringing a refined, intentional aesthetic rooted in longevity and livable elegance. Greg Roth (CarbonShack) — spotlighting eco-conscious material sourcing, sustainable practices, and climate-aligned living environments. Together they examine how interior design can be a catalyst for holistic living — from color palettes that promote calm and emotional balance, to spatial planning that supports aging in place, to circadian lighting and neurodiversity-friendly layouts. The discussion underscores a rising trend: residential interiors inspired by hospitality, wellness, and sustainability principles. Listeners will come away with fresh ideas on turning their homes into future-proof sanctuaries — design-forward, earth-conscious, and emotionally attuned. Health span-focused design: Designing spaces that help residents live longer, healthier lives at home. Aging in place: Home layouts that accommodate long-term functionality and wellness. Home gyms, saunas, cold plunges: Integrating spa-level wellness amenities in private residences. Dual kitchens: Inspired by Italian family homes for multigenerational living. Collaboration with architects: Designers as integral contributors to maximize natural light and spatial flow. VR visualization: Helping clients experience proportion, scale, and sightlines before construction. Problem-solving as designers: Addressing unforeseen construction issues creatively while maintaining aesthetics. Circadian lighting: Lighting systems (e.g., Lutron Ketra) that mimic natural light patterns to support sleep and productivity. Plant-based fabrics (hemp, bamboo, kelp): Sustainable, high-performance materials. Evidence-based color design: Physiological effects of color on multigenerational inhabitants. Neurodiverse design considerations: Minimizing overstimulation in homes for ADHD, dementia, or sensory sensitivity. Hospitality influence on residential design: Bringing experiences from wellness hotels into private homes. Storytelling & provenance: Educating clients about material sourcing and sustainable practices.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, KJ sits down with Gennadi Seko, founder and CEO of Oxilight, who is revolutionizing wound care diagnostics by transforming smartphones into powerful medical imaging devices. Gennadi shares his personal journey from Bay Street finance to medical physics, driven by his grandmother's diabetic foot amputation. He discusses how his company is disrupting the medical device industry by making diagnostic technology portable, affordable, and accessible—moving critical wound care assessments from expensive hospital labs to patients' homes. This conversation explores the intersection of deep tech innovation, healthcare accessibility, and the power of multimodal diagnostics in saving lives and limbs. Four Key Takeaways [26:19] Multimodality is the Game Changer - Instead of multiple expensive single-purpose devices sitting on shelves, combining three technologies (multispectral imaging, fluorescence imaging, and thermal imaging) into one $200 smartphone attachment provides a 360-degree view of wound health and dramatically improves diagnostic specificity. [9:29] The Diabetes Crisis is Escalating - 27% of seniors (65+) in the United States have diabetes, and the disease is now affecting people as young as 25. Diabetic foot complications account for 80% of all non-traumatic amputations, making early detection critical. [21:44] Mobility Saves Lives and Money - Moving diagnostic technology to patients' homes solves the compliance problem and enables early intervention. Preventing one amputation saves healthcare systems 10x in costs while dramatically improving patient quality of life. [14:50] Physiological Imaging Beats Anatomical Measurement - Traditional wound measurement with rulers only tracks size over time, requiring multiple visits. Physiological imaging provides immediate prognostic information from a single snapshot, identifying whether a wound will heal normally or requires intervention. Quote of the Show (23:27): “I don't want to improve hospital healthcare. I want to improve healthcare in general." - Gennadi Seko Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

Brian and Kristen return after completing their homework: mapping their recurring conflict pattern step-by-step. And something shifts. Instead of focusing on who's right, they begin identifying when the pattern starts, how it escalates, and where they might choose something different. They talk about having a “good week,” more laughter, and fewer misunderstandings—but Zach presses deeper: Was it luck, or was it intentional? What unfolds is a layered conversation about stress, chronic pain, medication changes, PMS, defensiveness, and the powerful internal story Brian carries that says, “If there's a problem, it must be me.” Zach helps them connect the dots between depression's lies, physiological stress, and how quickly neutral requests can turn into personal threat. The couple names their 10-step pattern openly—fight or flight, overthinking, mounting a defense, physical withdrawal—and begins experimenting with something new: interrupting the script before it reaches step six. This episode isn't about resolution. It's about pattern awareness and learning how to redirect before old muscle memory takes over. They close by identifying the next layer to explore in Episode 3: their over-functioner / under-functioner dynamic—and how it triggers deeper family-of-origin wounds. Key Takeaways A “good week” is often intentional, not accidental Externalizing the problem (“us vs. the schedule”) strengthens the team Physiological stress (sleep, pain, hormones, meds) directly impacts conflict Depression distorts perception and reinforces “I'm the problem” narratives Defensiveness often protects something deeply valuable Mapping a conflict pattern creates space for choice Interrupting the script—even once—builds momentum Repair matters more than resolution “Something new” is the antidote to “more of the same” Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode, we sat down with Stefanie Michele for a deeply honest, compassionate conversation about binge eating, body image, nervous system regulation, and what it really means to heal from the inside out. Stefanie shares her personal journey through 25 years of disordered eating - restriction, bingeing, orthorexia, bulimia, and anorexia - and how she found true recovery at 40. Her story alone is a powerful reminder that healing is possible, even when it feels unimaginable.We go far beyond food rules and willpower and into the nervous system, emotional regulation, trauma, and self-trust. We talk about why binge eating is rooted in scarcity (not lack of discipline), how physiology has to come before mindset work, and why shame keeps people stuck.This episode is for anyone who feels broken, out of control around food, or exhausted from fighting their body - and is ready for a more peaceful, sustainable way forward. If you've ever thought, “Why do I do this?” or “What's wrong with me?” - this conversation will help you see that nothing is wrong with you at all.“Binge eating is not a disorder of gluttony. It's a disorder of scarcity.”- Stefanie Michele“When we don't understand why we behave the way we do, we assume we're broken.”- Stefanie MicheleThis week on Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck:Why binge eating feels like a “hijacking” of the body—and how it differs from overeatingHow chronic dieting, restriction, and food rules disregulate the nervous systemThe role of physiology (adequate food, carbs, movement) in emotional regulationWhy shame and self-criticism actually fuel binge–restrict cyclesHow emotional suppression (like unexpressed anger) can drive binge eatingWhat it really means to have a regulated nervous system (hint: it's not being calm all the time)How social media imagery impacts body image - and why curating your feed mattersPractical examples of using somatic tools to feel emotions without getting stuck Connect with Stefanie Michele:I am Stefanie Michele WebsiteI am Stefanie Michele InstagramI am Stefanie Michele SubstackFull But Not Finished Podcast - SpotifyFull But Not Finished Podcast - Apple PodcastsThanks for tuning in to this week's episode of Here's the Deal: Fitness, Nutrition, and Mindset for People Who Don't Want Life to Suck, where we challenge the common understanding of what it means and what it takes to be fit and healthy!

Episode Highlights With KatieGrounding basics: the Earth is an electron reservoir; skin contact equalizes your body's electrical potential and lowers body voltage.Native vs non-native EMFs: native = Schumann/geomagnetic background; non-native = wiring and wireless sources. Aim to increase exposure to native signals (nature time) and reduce unnecessary non-native exposure, especially during sleep.Physiological effects discussed in studies: improved blood rheology (less RBC clumping), shifts in cortisol rhythm and HRV, reductions in pain and sleep disturbances.Why modern life disrupts it: rubber soles, synthetic floors, and high-rise livingBest outdoor practices: go barefoot on grass/soil/sand (great at sunrise!), beach walks, gardening, sitting on stone/earth, post-flight grounding, leather-soled shoes as a compromise.Moist natural surfaces conduct best.Indoor options and cautions when it comes to grounding mats and sheets.Dirty electricity concern: high-frequency transients on wiring or in soil can ride the ground; test and remediate electrical issues before relying on indoor grounding.Safety notes with thunderstorms or near energized equipment, with implanted electronics or complex medical devices.Start with 20–30 minutes daily outdoors; stack with circadian light (morning sun), movement on natural surfaces, and evening wind-down outsideUse an outlet tester and a body-voltage meter if experimenting indoors.Treat grounding as a low-risk, nature-based habit that pairs well with light, movement, hydration, and mineral balance; consider indoor gadgets optional and proceed only after due diligence.Resources Mentioned EMF canopyGroundies earthing shoesJustine Stenger's Mitochondrial Restoration ProgramDr. Courtney Hunt on Instagram

Are Eating Disorders Physiological or Psychological? The Answer Changes EverythingThis is a solo episode that shifts how you understand your eating disorder entirely.I'm diving deep into Tabitha Farrar's work on the migration response and exploring the question that everyone asks: is it biological or is it psychological? The honest answer is it's both. And understanding why changes how you recover.This episode is for you if:• You've wondered if your eating disorder is "real" because you don't have anorexia• You thought restriction should be easier and it wasn't (or it was, and then suddenly it wasn't)• You've struggled with the binge eating that came after restriction• You're stuck in restriction but your body won't cooperate anymore• You've done all the therapy and still can't stop the behaviours• You want to know why willpower doesn't work and what actually does• You're trying to understand if you just need to eat more or if you need psychological work tooIn this episode, we cover:✨ The migration response — why some people's bodies make restriction feel easy✨ The hibernation response — a different genetic physiological response to restriction✨ Why your metabolism might speed up or slow down when you restrict (it's genetic)✨ How the same person can find restriction easy, then nearly impossible (my personal story)✨ Why some people achieve extreme weight loss easily and others don't, even with severe restriction✨ The vicious feedback loop between biology and psychology in eating disorders✨ What eating disorders are really about beneath the desire to be thin✨ Why you restrict: acceptance, safety, validation, control, identity (it's always deeper)✨ Why therapy alone won't fix an eating disorder (and why weight restriction alone won't either)✨ Weight restoration isn't recovery — it's just the beginning✨ How your nervous system learns to treat weight gain as danger✨ Why you can't think your way out of what your body is experiencing✨ The neuro pathways that need to be rewired✨ Meeting the actual psychological needs your eating disorder was serving✨ Why somatic work (body work) is absolutely essential for recovery✨ The whole-picture approach: biology + psychology + nervous system + historyPowerful quotes from the episode:

Our guest this episode is Jeff Zeilmann, calling in from Missouri. Jeff is the founder and lead investigator of Tracking The Unknown, an independent project focused on structured documentation and analysis of unidentified aerial phenomena. Jeff approaches the subject from an evidence-driven perspective, with a clear separation between observation and interpretation. That framework was put to the test in August 2025, when, during an active investigation, he experienced an encounter with an unidentified aerial object. The event was documented at the time and was followed by acute physiological and cognitive effects that lasted several days, as well as an estimated forty-five minutes of unaccounted-for time.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/2026If you enjoy this podcast, please support the show with a virtual coffee:https://ko-fi.com/ufochroniclespodcastFollow and Subscribe on X to get ad-free episodesX: https://x.com/UFOchronpodcast/Want to share your encounter on the show?Email: UFOChronicles@gmail.comOr Fill out Guest Form:https://forms.gle/uGQ8PTVRkcjy4nxS7Podcast Merchandise:https://www.teepublic.com/user/ufo-chronicles-podcastHelp Support UFO CHRONICLES by becoming a Patron:https://patreon.com/UFOChroniclespodcastAll Links for Podcast:https://linktr.ee/UFOChroniclesPodcastThank you for listening!Like share and subscribe it really helps me when people share the show on social media, it means we can reach more people and more witnesses and without your amazing support, it wouldn't be possible.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

“Last year, I came into the indoor season with the sole goal of breaking 3:50 in the mile… That was the big goal to tick off. I thought I'd maybe have a shot at running 3:48-high or 3:49-low to mid, so to run 3:47 actually surprised me quite a lot. This year, I feel like that's almost the expectation now. The standard has definitely been raised and the bar's been raised.”My guest for today's episode is Cameron Myers. Over the last three years, the world has gotten to know what Australia has known for a while – that something special has been coming. At just 19 years old, Cam ran 7:27 for 3000m to win the New Balance Indoor Grand Prix, delivering the fastest 3K ever run by an Australian that's either indoors or outdoors. In the process, he broke national records held by Ky Robinson and Stewy McSweyn. He closed in 55.98 seconds over the last 400m and surged away from a world-class field with the kind of composure that you rarely see from a teenager. To put that performance into perspective, only three men in history have ever broken 7:28 before turning 20 years old. That's Eliud Kipchoge, Jacob Kiplimo, and Jakob Ingebrigtssen. That's the company that Cam Myers now keeps.He talks about that stat in our chat, but what makes Cam so compelling isn't just the time; it's the way that he talks about the sport. He's thoughtful, honest, and remarkably grounded for someone who's already climbing so high in the global ranks. In our conversation, he's open about the challenges that he's faced, including a recent medical setback that forced him to withdraw from the World Cross Country Championships. We also talk about his breakout race in Boston, why stacking training upon training has become his guiding principle, how he's learning to race to win instead of just hanging on. Plus, he'll be one of the stars of the Wanamaker Mile at the Millrose Games this weekend after taking third place last year in a U20 mile world record of 3:47.We're speaking with Cam as part of his announcement that he has joined the Coros roster of professional athletes, which includes the likes of Jakob Ingebrigtsen, Jess Hull, and Alex Yee. He shares a bit of his data-driven approach, but you can learn more if you read their blog post on him here.Cam is already rewriting record books and he's doing it with a long view of where his journey can go since he'll be one of the stars for Australia when they host the 2032 Olympic Games.____________Mentioned in this episode:COROS Blog Post - Cam Myers' Training: A Deep Dive____________Host: Chris Chavez | ⁠⁠@chris_j_chavez on Instagram⁠Guest: Cam Myers | @camer0nmyers on InstagramProduced by: Jasmine Fehr | ⁠⁠⁠@jasminefehr on Instagram⁠⁠⁠____________SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Olipop is a better-for-you soda that puts 6-9g of fiber in every single can.

Most fitness businesses don't fail because of effort.They fail because the system was never designed to scale.If you're still:• “Trying harder”• Tweaking ads without structure• Relying on motivation instead of infrastructure…this video will expose exactly why that approach breaks.Inside this breakdown, we dismantle the biggest lie in the fitness industry:

Cold plunges are everywhere, and the way people talk about them, you'd think they're a miracle cure for your brain, body, and soul. But in an age of algorithm-fueled evangelism, when a ritual becomes this ubiquitous and loud, we have to ask: how much of the buzz is backed by science… and how much is just marketing? In this episode, we explore the neuroscience of cold exposure: what's real, what's overstated, and why this "discomfort" has become a billion-dollar industry. We discuss: Why cold plunges went viral, and how wellness movements often devolve into identity-driven cultures The difference between cold exposure itself and the monetized "cold plunge movement" What constitutes a "cult" (and how pseudoscience forms around partial truths) The real physiological cold shock response Why the mental "high" after a plunge doesn't automatically equal long-term brain benefit The cardiovascular risks that rarely get discussed, especially for people with underlying heart disease What the research suggests about soreness, pain reduction, and muscle growth (including why cold immersion can blunt hypertrophy) The real story behind brown fat Who should avoid cold plunges altogether (asthma, arrhythmias, coronary disease, vascular conditions) Joining us for this conversation is investigative journalist and bestselling author Scott Carney (What Doesn't Kill Us, The Wedge), who has spent years inside the cold exposure world, first as a skeptic, then as a believer, and eventually as a critic of the culture that formed around it. His work reveals what happens when discomfort becomes identity, and when unfounded "social media science" outruns real science.

The post-holiday momentum hangover isn't imaginary, but it's also not a failure of discipline or motivation. What most people experience in January is a quiet loss of structure as routines, environments, and accountability systems loosen. This episode breaks down why momentum fades, how physiology and environment contribute to that drop, and what actually restores traction. Topics discussed: - Post-holiday momentum loss- Accountability as a system- Physiological reset through movement- Reverse-engineering past success- Environment and performance- Mental input management- Shrinking the time horizon---------- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠My Live Program for Coaches: The Functional Nutrition and Metabolism Specialization ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.metabolismschool.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- [Free] Metabolism School 101: The Video Series⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠http://www.metabolismschool.com/metabolism-101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------Subscribe to My Youtube Channel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://youtube.com/@sammillerscience?si=s1jcR6Im4GDHbw_1⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Grab a Copy of My New Book - Metabolism Made Simple⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠---------- Stay Connected: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Youtube: SamMillerScience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook: The Nutrition Coaching Collaborative Community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok: @sammillerscience⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠----------“This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing or other professional health care services, including the giving of medical advice, and no doctor/patient relationship is formed.

Most people think goal failure is a mindset issue, but the real constraint is often physiological. This episode reframes why we don't rise to our goals, we return to the baseline our nervous system has been conditioned to expect. I break down how predictive physiology, stress exposure, and environmental consistency shape metabolism, hormones, and behavior over time. Topics discussed: - Physiological baselines explained- Predictive nervous system- Stress conditioning patterns- Homeostasis versus optimization- Familiar stress responses- Environment over intensity
