Guests: Kyra Klein, Physiotherapist & Shamanic Healer | Matthew Johnson, Somatic Therapist Business: Body Language | Squamish, BC | trainbodylanguage.com   What if the pain you feel in your body is actually the voice of something your mind hasn't found words for yet? In this episode, hosts Harmony Slater and Russell Case sit down with two extraordinary healers—Kyra Klein and Matthew Johnson, co-creators of Body Language in Squamish, British Columbia—to explore what it really means to heal the whole human system.   Kyra is Harmony's cousin, reunited through Ancestry.com in one of the most unexpected family stories you'll ever hear. A trained physiotherapist, yoga teacher, and shamanic practitioner, Kyra has spent over a decade learning to read the body's deepest stories through touch, intuition, and energy work. Her partner Matt came to healing through a radically different path—as a nationally ranked sport climbing coach who suppressed his emotions with elite precision, until a family loss and near-death illness shattered everything he thought he knew.   Together, Kyra and Matt have built a practice that bridges physiotherapy, somatic therapy, breathwork, shamanic ceremony, and psychedelic integration—because they've learned that no single modality can heal the whole person.   In this conversation, you'll discover: Why the body stores emotional and traumatic history in physical form How Matt's three-month health crisis—where he lost a third of his body weight and negotiated with death itself—became his initiation into healing What somatic therapy offers that traditional talk therapy cannot How Kyra reads the emotional story underneath physical symptoms through touch The difference between caring for someone and carrying them Why breathwork ceremony can be as powerful as psychedelic medicine What the Pacha Mesa shamanic tradition teaches about reconnecting to the natural world How integration is the missing piece in most healing journeys Why the West is finally waking up to what indigenous and Eastern traditions have always known   This conversation is rich, tender, occasionally hilarious, and deeply grounded in the lived experience of two people who chose to turn toward their own healing—and built a business helping others do the same.   ⭐ Want to go deeper? The full conversation about Harmony and Russell's personal journeys with Kyra and Matt—including their integration experiences—is available exclusively inside the Finding Harmony Community: community-harmonyslater.com   Timestamps [00:00] Welcome to Finding Harmony [01:00] Introducing Today's Theme: Whole Human Healing [03:00] Meet Kyra Klein & Matthew Johnson: Body Language, Squamish BC [06:00] The Ancestry.com Discovery: How Harmony Found Her Cousin [09:00] Soul Collision: How Kyra and Matt Met on Hinge and Knew Immediately [12:00] What It Means to Build a Relationship Around Healing [14:00] Matt's Background: Canadian National Sport Climbing Coach [15:30] The Moment Everything Broke: A Family Loss and a Health Crisis [18:00] Three Months Without Food: Negotiating with Death [21:00] Cashews, Consciousness, and Coming Back [24:00] Kyra's Spiritual Awakening: Spirits in Her Bedroom as a Child [28:00] From High-Performance Sport to Physiotherapy: The Body as Teacher [32:00] Kyra's Approach: Reading the Emotional Story Beneath Physical Symptoms [38:00] The Mind-Body Split: What Western Medicine Got Wrong [40:00] Somatic Therapy: Getting Out of the Story and Back into the Body [44:00] Why Intense Practice Can Be a Way to Avoid Feeling [47:00] Body Language: Learning to Understand What Your Body Is Saying [52:00] How Healing Happens in Stillness [56:00] Matt's Spiritual Awakening Through Meditation [59:00] Kyra's First Psilocybin Journey and the Birth of Something New [01:01:00] Integration: Why Openings Without Integration Don't Stick [01:04:00] The Pacha Mesa Shamanic Tradition: Earth-Honoring Philosophy [01:09:00] Cultural Appropriation and Sacred Transmission [01:11:00] Ceremony, Ritual, and What We've Lost as a Culture [01:14:00] How Kyra and Matt Set Sacred Space for Breathwork Ceremonies [01:18:00] The Power of Collective Healing [01:19:00] Where to Find Body Language   Connect with Kyra & Matt Website: trainbodylanguage.com Instagram: @trainbodylanguage Somatic therapy & psychedelic integration support available virtually (sliding scale pricing) Physiotherapy, shamanic therapy, and holistic sessions in Squamish, BC   Resources Mentioned Gabor Maté – Compassionate Inquiry Professional Training Pacha Mesa Tradition teachers: Robin and Darcy Heart of the Healer tradition How to Change Your Mind – Michael Pollan Ancestry.com   Key Takeaways The body stores emotional and traumatic history as physical pattern Healing is a lifelong path—you either turn toward yourself or you don't Somatic therapy gets you out of your story and back into felt experience Integration is the missing piece in most spiritual and healing journeys Breathwork ceremony can occasion mystical experience without plant medicine You can become addicted to anything—even spiritual practice—as a way to avoid feeling Genuine spiritual connection to the natural world is what the West is hungry for Your outer healer helps clear the path; the healing intelligence lives inside you  

This week, we begin a 4-part series on Unintentional Deaths and Accidents, which are the third-leading cause of death in America.  This category includes poisonings and overdoses, falls, and motor vehicle accidents.  In this episode, you'll discover:—How Dr. Prather was surprised that Accidental Deaths passed Strokes to become the #3 cause of death in the United States. —Why Men are more likely to die than Women in this category.  (And why Lisa really likes Dr. Prather's explanation!)—How drug overdoses, particularly from Opioids, are the main driver of deaths in the category of Poisonings.—Why Dr. Prather says that Structure-Function Care can do a lot to help reduce deaths in this category. —The reason deaths from motor vehicle accidents have actually gone down a bit.   —The astonishing story behind what started the Opioid crisis in America.  And the Big Pharma family behind it all.—The Surgeon General letter to all physicians in 2019 that called on fewer Opioid drugs being prescribed. —How an elderly person who falls and breaks a hip will usually die within two years. —Why balance assessment and treatment are so important for adults over the age of 65.  And how an overwhelming majority of falls happen at home. —The Surgeon General recommendations in 2019 that pain treatment should be prioritized with Structure-Function Care like Chiropractic, Acupuncture, and Physiotherapy instead of addictive prescriptions.  And the scenarios when Opioids are beneficial when used properly.http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

Speakers: Jody Prohar and Leanne Loranger From time to time, conflicts and challenging situations may arise between physiotherapists and their clients, which may lead the physiotherapist to consider declining to continue to provide services to the client. These situations exist on a continuum from the slightly challenging to the potentially dangerous. The 2025 Duty of Care Standard codifies professional expectations that have been in place for a long time. In this bonus episode we revisit an episode we first shared back in 2021, highlighting the physiotherapist's duties if they are opting to decline services for a client who still needs treatment. Jody and Leanne discuss a range of situations that can lead a physiotherapist to discontinue physiotherapy and the expectations that apply to those situations. When is it ok for a physiotherapist to decline services to a client? Listen to this episode to find out.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jeff Skarela—a sports chiropractor, competitive triathlete, and my personal go-to guy for performance recovery and injury prevention. Whether you're a weekend warrior, high-level athlete, or the parent of a competitive teen, this one's packed with practical insight you can actually use.We talk about VO₂ max, lactate threshold, muscle scraping, BFR, peptides, exosomes, GLP-1s, cold plunges, saunas, and more. You'll hear how Jeff treats his patients like athletes—designing concierge, one-on-one recovery sessions that keep them training, moving, and competing. We also dive into how the science of recovery is changing: why ice may be outdated, why range of motion is king, and how the "Enhanced Olympics" are reshaping our views on optimization. This is a crash course in high-performance human care—without the fluff.Quotes"My ideal patient? Someone who's already healthy—and wants to stay that way. That's the real goal." — Dr. Jeff Skarela"VO₂ max is a proxy. You can't cheat it. You either put in the work—or you didn't." — Dr. Jeff SkarelaKey TakeawaysIntro: Who is Dr. Jeff Skarela?

In this episode, we discuss Physiotherapy within the Paediatric population.

What if the most powerful lever for chronic pain isn't in your muscles or joints, but in your brain's prediction system? We sit down with Jim Prussack a physiotherapist who left a strictly structural model behind after diving deep into pain science, mentorship with John Sarno and Howard Schubiner, and years on the front lines of complex cases. The takeaway is both hopeful and concrete.We walk through how to tell if symptoms are neuroplastic—looking at timelines, flares tied to stress, inconsistency across activities, and the absence of clear tissue damage. From there, we show why acceptance of the diagnosis is the foundation for every tool that follows, whether it's graded exposure, cognitive functional therapy, somatic tracking, breathing, or journaling. You'll hear how reassurance and a trauma-informed approach outperform nocebo-laden scripts like “your core is weak,” and why the best PT sometimes looks like coaching confidence rather than chasing a tight muscle.We also get specific about mixing psychotherapy and physical therapy without sending mixed signals. For some, active PT restores trust in movement; for others, psychological work on fear, grief, and old patterns unlocks the nervous system. The unifying thread is coherence: consistent, safety-first messaging that teaches the brain to downshift from threat.If you're navigating persistent pain, pelvic pain, back pain, or other functional symptoms, this conversation offers a practical roadmap built on pain neuroscience, neuroplasticity, and lived clinical wisdom.

Have you ever wondered why certain pains keep coming back no matter how much you stretch, rest or change your workouts? Sometimes the issue isn't the pain itself, but the way your body is trying to move without enough support.In this episode I sat down with a physiotherapist and rehab coach to talk about how strength and stability shift recurring aches, why hip control matters more than people realize, how your core holds you in everyday movement and why loaded mobility often creates more change than stretching alone.If you've been dealing with spots that keep acting up or you want to feel more supported when you train, you'll walk away with things that help right away. It's grounded and helps you make sense of what's been happening in your body.Tayla Cannon is the founder of Athletic Rebuild, a virtual approach that helps people move past quick relief and into strength that supports real-life movement. She joined us to talk about what happens when you finally bridge the gap between rehab and training. Tune in.What's Discussed:(00:00) Why pain keeps coming back and what your body might be missing(03:40) How strength changes the way your body handles load(07:15) The role of hip control in back, knee and everyday movement(12:02) What “core support” actually means in real life(18:10) Why stretching alone isn't changing your pain(22:55) How loaded mobility creates better results than passive work(27:30) Building capacity instead of chasing quick fixes(38:20) The mindset shift that makes rehab feel less overwhelmingThank You to Our Sponsors:Timeline: Get you free 3-day trial of Mitopure gummies.

We all hear a lot about making sure we are using "evidence-based" or "evidence-informed" practice, but what exactly is that?  How can we ensure we are clearly taking the research and applying it correctly and effectively in the real world?  How do we know when to generalize and when not to?  What things within the context of the patient or therapist should be considered when we are choosing the best treatment strategies for our patients?  These are the things D.r Zach Baker and Dr. Corrie Jones chat through in this podcast episode!

In this episode with Luke Murray we discuss Paul Ingraham's e-book on plantar fasciitis. We cover:Common causes of plantar fasciitisIs stretching effective for plantar fasciitis?Strengthening for the treatment of plantar fasciitisAnd more!

Summary In this episode, Melvin Pitz and Cornel Tol from the Headache, Pain, and Concussion Training Institute (HPCTI) delve into the intricacies of managing concussions and post-concussion symptoms. They advocate for using the term "prolonged post-concussion symptoms" over "mild traumatic brain injury" to reduce the nocebo effect associated with the latter. The discussion highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary and biopsychosocial approach in diagnosis and treatment, emphasizing the significance of early intervention and patient education. Melvin and Cornel share insights into diagnostic criteria, the impact of framing on patient outcomes, and the gaps in current practices, particularly in the Netherlands. They stress the need for physiotherapists to be proactive in education and networking to bridge the knowledge gap in concussion management. The episode also touches on the neurophysiological aspects of concussion, the shortcomings of monodisciplinary approaches, and the potential of a treatable traits approach for better patient outcomes. Listeners are encouraged to rethink the role of physiotherapy and consider the broader implications of prolonged symptoms, including psychological and social factors. The episode provides practical advice for physiotherapists and healthcare professionals on how to improve their practice and patient care in the context of concussions. Guests Today's guests are Melvin Pitz and Cornel Tol from the HPC-TI — short for Headache, Pain & Concussion Training Institute.

In this episode, we dive deep with James (Jared) Maynard—a physiotherapist, strength coach, and competitive powerlifter—who not long ago faced a life-threatening health crisis. What began as a simple head cold spiraled quickly into organ failure, a rare autoimmune condition called HLH, and five weeks on life support. James takes us through the harrowing journey of fighting for his life, grappling with the loss of his physical strength, and rebuilding himself from the ground up—both physically and mentally. Through candid conversations, he and Chris explore the daunting challenges of identity shifts, the importance of resilience, and the power of community support during times of crisis. James also opens up about how this experience reshaped his values, his priorities, and his approach to coaching others through their darkest moments. Whether you're an athlete, a coach, or someone facing a difficult path, this episode is a testament to the indomitable human spirit and the transformative potential of strength—inside and out. Join us as we explore what it truly means to be resilient, and how, sometimes, losing everything can lead to a life of even greater purpose.   Key Takeaways: Resilience Is Built Before It's Needed: Jared credits years of training for literally saving his life—his physical and mental strength gave him a fighting chance. Cultivating strength, he says, is the best kind of life insurance. Redefining Identity: When everything you've built is stripped away, you're forced to confront the core of who you are. Jared opens up about the grief of losing his physical capabilities and the deep self-reflection it prompted. He urges us all to diversify our identities beyond just what we do. The Game of Inches: Recovery started not with personal records, but with celebrating the tiniest steps—holding a phone, standing for 30 seconds, building back from two-and-a-half pound plates. The real battle is finding the discipline and optimism to keep going when the wins feel minuscule. The Power of Support: Sometimes, being tough isn't about “doing it all.” Jared shares how leaning on his family, mentors, and broader community was critical—not just physically, but emotionally. Saying Yes to What Matters: Jared's brush with mortality is a powerful reminder to focus on what truly matters—his family, his mission, and savoring the small moments.   This episode of the ARCHITECT of RESILIENCE podcast is available on Apple, Spotify & YouTube, and is sponsored by  @marekhealth : Performance. Longevity. Optimization.
