This episode continues the practical series on the Inner Villain system by breaking down how to communicate with each villain type. Kristina and Anna pull from real life, therapy, and relationship work to translate a complex shadow-work system into clear tools you can use with partners, friends, coworkers, and family.Before the communication section, the episode also covers:• Purpose vs meaning• Why your purpose isn't defined by you• How creation works when it's not about control• A new metaphor for the 9 Villains as phases in the lifecycle of a flowering plant• Why people “get stuck” in certain villain phases• What it means to grow in order vs out of orderEPISODE BREAKDOWN00:00 — Opening & Check-InKristina and Anna reconnect after a break from recording.They talk somatic healing, practical implementation struggles, and the tension between “etheric narrative work” and real-life applicability.05:00 — Purpose vs MeaningAnna shares insights from her Kabbalah class:• Meaning is personal interpretation.• Purpose is assigned externally (source, God, universe).• You don't get to define your purpose. Others and life events reveal it.Kristina connects this to Viktor Frankl, creation without attachment, and Buckminster Fuller's idea that purpose arrives at a perpendicular angle to your intentions.13:00 — BREAKTHROUGH DREAM: The 9 Villains as the Life Cycle of a Flowering PlantKristina shares a liminal-space dream that reframed the entire Villain System through the natural growth stages of a plant.A concise map:Obedient Critic — Seed. Rules, inherited limitations, instruction set.Vengeful Martyr — Cotyledon (baby leaves). Self-generated energy. Doing everything alone.Vain Controller — True leaves + root establishment. Channels, resources, trust.Eternal Child — Explosive growth, abundance, chaos.Evasive Expert — Balancing inputs. Regulating water/light.Divisive Immortal — Flowering. Death, risk, community, cross-pollination.Hungry Shapeshifter — Seed production. Creativity, potentiality.Righteous Bully — Seed release. Letting go. Not controlling outcomes.Invisible Destroyer — Desiccation / return to soil. Crone, surrender, dissolution.Use it to locate yourself. If you're “stuck,” look at the developmental stage you skipped.41:53 — PRACTICAL SECTION: COMMUNICATING WITH EACH VILLAINThis is the part listeners asked for. Clear, real-world communication strategies, conflict prevention tools, and repair patterns for each villain.1. The Obedient Critic (OC)Rule-set oriented, easily offended, perfectionistic, rigid.Preventive strategies:• Exchange rule-sets explicitly. Ask: “What does X mean to you?”• Agree on shared relationship rules or a “contract.”• Avoid assuming your interpretation matches theirs.• Overshare context up front to avoid catastrophic misinterpretation.During conflict:• Use permissive, soft entry language: “Could we try…?” “Maybe we consider…?”• Validate their meaning first: “I see how in your world this means X.”• Never say “You're wrong.” Reframe instead: “In my world, this means something different.”2. The Vengeful Martyr (VM)Energy-banker, does everything alone, keeps score, collapses into exhaustion.Preventive strategies:• Do not exploit their over-functioning.• Build real competence in the areas they normally shoulder alone.• Remove responsibility from them physically (take the kids out of the house, run point on meals, etc.).• Combine gratitude + competent action.During conflict / meltdown:• Open with: “I'm sorry I hurt your feelings.”• Listen. Don't defend. Don't reason.• Offer immediate relief from responsibility.• After they calm: reduce the systemic over-responsibility that created the blowup.3. The Vain Controller (VC)Status-driven, work-driven, image-driven, terrified of betrayal.Preventive strategies:• Avoid competition or one-upping.• Celebrate small vulnerability when they offer it.• Keep your promises. No exceptions.• Reward their hard work in tangible, visible ways.During conflict:• Acknowledge the breach directly: “I recognize I broke a promise here.”• Use “I will work harder” language.• Outline concrete steps you will take to restore trust.• Don't joke about their insecurities. They will not take it well.4. The Eternal Child (EC)Dream-logic, confabulation, entitlement, dramatic swings.Preventive strategies:• Set clear expectations + consequences. Consistency matters more than anything.• Bring in practicality without shaming their dream-side:“I love your vision. Let's anchor it with two practical steps.”• Give them structure, timelines, and follow-through.During conflict / tantrum:• Do not debate their story. It won't land.• Provide grounding: “I'm here. I'm not abandoning you.”• Hold consistent consequences afterward.• If they escalate to destructive behavior: remove yourself and hold the boundary firmly.ClosingNext week: Part 3, continuing through the remaining villains (Evasive Expert → Invisible Destroyer) with more scripts, tools, and examples.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

In this episode of the Pain and Performance Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Grant Elliott, chiropractor and founder of Rehab Fix, to break down the truth about back pain, disc herniation, and sciatica.Grant shares his personal journey of losing a promising athletic career to back pain and how it pushed him to become a movement-based chiropractor. We discuss why 80% of people will experience back pain in their lifetime, why the spine is not fragile, and what the latest evidence reveals about disc healing, recovery, and prevention.This conversation cuts through the myths and fear-based narratives that often lead patients to unnecessary surgery. Instead, Grant explains how movement, proper assessment, and addressing mental and emotional health are key to long-term recovery.Key Takeaways-- 80% of people will experience low back pain at some point in their life.-- The spine is strong, adaptable, and designed to move — not fragile.-- 97% of disc herniations heal without surgery when treated properly.-- Good assessments should focus on history + movement analysis, not just imaging.-- Movement-based solutions are more effective than passive care.-- Posture is not the root cause of pain — variety and movement matter more.-- Emotional and mental health significantly influence pain and recovery.-- Preventive mobility, exercise, and awareness can reduce long-term back problems.DERRICKTikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@drderrickInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/derrickbhines/Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@DrDerrickGRANTWebsite: www.therehabfix.comInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/rehabfix/followers/YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@rehabfix

Seven-Lecture Series on Property Law Series Roadmaphttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1ceyxXw7KilPSTUMFf_Y8r6ktEzM_gm1Q/view?usp=sharingUnderstanding the Rule Against Perpetuities: A Legal OdysseyThis conversation delves into the complexities of the Rule Against Perpetuities (RAP), a fundamental concept in property law that restricts how long a property owner can dictate the future of their property. The discussion covers the historical context, the core components of RAP, common law traps, modern statutory reforms, and practical strategies for legal practitioners and students. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding both the traditional common law and modern reforms, including the implications of dynasty trusts and the evolving landscape of estate planning.Imagine a world where the past dictates the future, where decisions made centuries ago still hold sway over today's property rights. This is the realm of the Rule Against Perpetuities (RAP), a legal doctrine that has both haunted and fascinated law students and practitioners alike. At its core, RAP is about balancing the freedom of property owners with societal needs for marketability and utility.The Historical Context: The Rule Against Perpetuities emerged as a response to the "dead hand" control, where property owners could impose conditions that lasted indefinitely. This legal principle was designed to prevent land from being tied up by outdated stipulations, ensuring it remains a dynamic part of the economy.The Legal Mechanics: RAP is famously encapsulated in the phrase: "No interest is good unless it must vest, if at all, not later than 21 years after some life in being at the creation of the interest." This means that any future interest in property must become certain within a specific timeframe, or it becomes void. The rule's complexity lies in its hypothetical scenarios, such as the "fertile octogenarian" and "unborn widow," which challenge the imagination and legal reasoning.Modern Reforms and Implications: Over time, the rigidity of RAP has led to reforms like the Uniform Statutory Rule Against Perpetuities (USRAP), which introduces a 90-year vesting period. These changes reflect a shift towards practicality, allowing courts to "wait and see" if interests vest within this period. Additionally, the rise of dynasty trusts has transformed RAP into a tool for wealth preservation, enabling families to shield assets from taxes over extended periods.The Rule Against Perpetuities remains a cornerstone of property law, illustrating the tension between individual autonomy and societal progress. As legal landscapes evolve, RAP continues to challenge and inspire, prompting us to consider who truly holds the power over property—those living today or the echoes of the past.Subscribe now to stay updated on the latest legal insights and trends.TakeawaysThe Rule Against Perpetuities is a complex but essential concept in property law.Understanding the policy behind RAP is crucial for effective legal analysis.The common law's strict tests can lead to absurd results, such as the fertile octogenarian scenario.Modern reforms like the wait and see doctrine provide more practical solutions.Dynasty trusts exploit RAP to shield wealth from taxes over generations.Identifying interests subject to RAP is key to effective estate planning.Exemptions from RAP can save certain interests from being voided.Common law traps highlight the need for careful drafting in estate documents.Statutory reforms have softened the harshness of the common law rule.Preventive compliance through saving clauses is the gold standard for drafters.Rule Against Perpetuities, property law, estate planning, common law, statutory reforms, dynasty trusts, legal education, RAP analysis, estate planning strategies, legal traps

Get answers to your biggest questions about shopping for a health plan. Where do most people get health insurance?Many people get health coverage through an employer, such as your job, your spouse's job, or a parent's job (an option until you turn 26). Others buy it through HealthCare.gov, where you might qualify for an income-based tax credit to lower your premium. What should you look for when choosing a health plan? Compare the Summary of Benefits and Coverage for different plan options. This document gives you an apples-to-apples comparison of how much you pay for different types of care and what limits apply. Ask if a plan covers your doctors and medications. How do I know if a plan is affordable? The premium is the monthly cost you pay. It's usually straightforward with an employer plan. If you're shopping for an individual plan on HealthCare.gov, have an estimate of your annual income ready because your premium tax credit depends on your income. Pay attention to out-of-pocket costs as these can vary widely. Take note of the plan's deductible and the copays for visiting the emergency room, a specialist, and a primary care physician. If there's a deductible, how much is covered before I meet it? Any plan you buy on HealthCare.gov must cover preventive care before you reach your deductible. Preventive care services include annual checkups and school vaccines for your children. If your kids get sick, some plans will cover primary care for free or a copay or offer free virtual visits and telemedicine before you meet the deductible. If you're considering a high-deductible plan, know what coverage you'll get before you meet your deductible. This factor could be the difference between plans that have a similar monthly premium or a similar deductible. When is open enrollment? You can sign up for a new health plan on HealthCare.gov during open enrollment from November 1 to January 15. To get coverage that starts January 1, you must enroll by December 15. For health plans through your job, the enrollment period varies. Ask your company's human resources department for the dates. What red flags should I look for? Limited benefit health plans. These health plans might have a lower monthly premium, but they don't provide major medical coverage. Limited plans aren't part of HealthCare.gov and only cover certain services at specific coverage amounts. Pressure to buy now. No one should pressure you to buy a plan without giving you a chance to read the fine print. Examine the Summary of Benefits and Coverages before you buy anything so that you understand all the coverage and exclusions, their provider network, and the medications they cover. Upfront requests for personal information. Never share your phone number, credit card, or Social Security number unless you're on a trusted site like HealthCare.gov or an official insurance company website. Be suspicious of unsolicited phone and email offers. Questions?

In this episode of Better Edge, Quentin R. Youmans, MD, assistant professor of Cardiology at Northwestern Medicine Bluhm Cardiovascular Institute, discusses the recent joint scientific statement from the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) and the American Society of Preventive Cardiology (ASPC) published in the Journal of Cardiac Failure. This statement explores the integration of multidisciplinary care models in heart failure management, focusing on proactive strategies for early detection and prevention. It also emphasizes the importance of lifestyle modifications, social determinants of health and a shift in language from "failure" to "function" for enhancing patient engagement. Additionally, the research investigates the role of emerging technologies, such as wearables and AI, in revolutionizing care and proposes a cohesive framework that promotes cardiovascular, kidney and metabolic health to reduce heart failure incidence.

Send us your desired health topic or guest suggestionsWe sit down with Hunter Ziesing, co-founder of Longevity Health, to unpack a physician-led model that blends advanced diagnostics, an AI voice agent, and real-world incentives to help people increase health span, not just lifespan. Hunter shares why the next step is going to be bringing those benefits to everyone at an affordable price point.We dig into the tests that actually move the needle, including expanded blood panels tuned to your age and goals, DEXA scans and VO2 max to gauge cardiorespiratory fitness. Hunter explains how quarterly retesting and biomarker tracking create a loop of feedback and motivation so people make changes they can measure. You'll hear a live demo of Jesse AI, a secure voice agent that reads your records, summarizes results, suggests next steps, while keeping a physician in the loop to ensure accuracy and clinical oversight.Data ownership and privacy anchor the model. Patients control their records; employers only see aggregated insights to guide targeted benefits without exposing personal details. We explore how gamification and social accountability nudge consistent habits, and why AI won't replace doctors yet. We also address mental health, stress, and the plan to connect people with modalities that fit their needs instead of one-size-fits-all advice.Ready to take control of your health span?

This week, Aebhric talks with Jason Jarvis, a former Special Forces medic and current PhD candidate, and discusses Chagas disease, a tropical disease transmitted by the kissing bug. He explains the life cycle of the bug, the transmission of the disease, its clinical presentation, and the challenges in diagnosis and treatment. The conversation emphasises the importance of awareness and preventive measures, especially as Chagas disease is spreading to new regions, including parts of the United States. The discussion concludes with key take-home messages for healthcare providers and the need for ongoing education in tropical medicine.TakeawaysChagas disease is transmitted by the kissing bug, primarily in Central and South America.The life cycle of the kissing bug involves several stages, including the transmission of the parasite through its faeces.Clinical diagnosis is essential, especially in endemic areas where the disease is prevalent.The acute phase of Chagas disease is easier to treat than the chronic phase, which can lead to severe complications.Preventive measures include avoiding exposure to kissing bugs and ensuring blood products are screened for the disease.Chagas disease can also be transmitted through blood transfusions and organ transplants.Healthcare providers should be aware of the symptoms and risk factors associated with Chagas disease.The disease is now spreading to parts of the continental US, raising public health concerns.Ongoing education and awareness of tropical diseases are crucial for healthcare providers.The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the global health implications of diseases like Chagas.

How Conscious Awareness Shapes Leadership, Therapy, and Collective Healing: An Interview with Pardis Mahdavi, PhD Curt and Katie chat with Pardis Mahdavi, PhD, about how consciousness and intentional awareness can transform therapy, leadership, and community. Pardis shares how cultivating our “inner state," moving from suffering to a “beautiful state,” impacts how we lead, connect, and heal collectively. She offers practical ways therapists can integrate mindfulness, breath mastery, and curiosity into their work to help clients (and themselves) live with greater awareness and alignment. About Our Guest:Pardis Mahdavi, PhD is an author, educator, and entrepreneur. She has written seven non-fiction books and two edited volumes, including Book of Queens (2023) and Riding (2024). A former university president and global human rights expert, Pardis now leads Entheon Journeys, focusing on consciousness, leadership, and transformation. Her work has been featured in Time, Ms. Magazine, Huffington Post, and the Los Angeles Times. Key Takeaways: Consciousness work deepens mindfulness into an ongoing framework for intentional living and healing. Therapists can help clients identify and shift their inner “state” from suffering toward beauty, calm, and connection. Preventive practices such as meditation, journaling, and breath mastery support long-term wellbeing and resilience. Leadership and therapy are energetic processes: awareness of one's own state affects how others experience us. Community healing grows when curiosity replaces critique and connection transcends identity barriers.

The Crisis in College Mental Health: An Interview with Dr. Pardis Mahdavi, PhD Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy talk with Dr. Pardis Mahdavi about the growing mental-health crisis among college students. Pardis shares insights from her years in higher education leadership—revealing how rising costs, outdated systems, and lack of purpose are driving student anxiety and burnout. Together they explore what therapists, universities, and communities can do to realign education with meaning, wellbeing, and real-world readiness. About Our Guest: Dr. Pardis Mahdavi, Ph.D. Pardis Mahdavi is an author, educator, and entrepreneur whose work spans human rights, education policy, and consciousness.

Key Takeaways for Therapists College students face unprecedented levels of anxiety and depression—driven by systemic disconnection, financial stress, and unclear purpose. Higher education often fails to evolve with societal change, leaving students feeling unprepared and unseen. Preventive supports like mindfulness and mentorship should be built into the college experience. Therapists can help students find meaning, manage uncertainty, and advocate for collaborative care across campus systems.

 Otto von Bismarck was one of the greatest politicianNever fight with Russian. On your every stratagem they answer unpredictable stupidity.The secret of politics? Make a good treaty with Russia.What we learn from History is that no one learns from HistoryGod has a special providence for fools, drunks, and the United States of America.Only a fool learns from his own mistakes. The wise man learns from the mistakes of others.People never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election.The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood.Never believe anything in politics until it has been officially denied.The Americans are a very lucky people. They're bordered to the north and south by weak neighbors, and to the east and west by fish.The death of Lincoln was a disaster for Christendom. There was no man in the United States great enough to wear his boots and the bankers went anew to grab the riches. I fear that foreign bankers with their craftiness and tortuous tricks will entirely control the exuberant riches of America and use it to systematically corrupt civilization.We live in a wondrous time in which the strong is weak because of his moral scruples and the weak grows strong because of his audacity.A generation that has taken a beating is always followed by a generation that deals one.When you want to fool the world, tell the truth.A really great man is known by three signs: generosity in the design, humanity in the execution, moderation in success.Anyone who has ever looked into the glazed eyes of a soldier dying on the battlefield will think hard before starting a war.People who love sausage and people who believe in justice should never watch either of them being madePreventive war is like committing suicide out of fear of death.A bad plan that is well executed will yield much better results than a good plan that is poorly executed.My Video: Otto von Bismack Quotes…https://youtu.be/Q64xXhI4Yzs My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast5/Otto-von-Bismack-Quotes.mp3

Executive coach and researcher Marina Morgan (Morgan Impact) joins me to explore what few founders talk about openly—entrepreneurial trauma—and how resilience, not hustle, becomes your survival skill in an age of constant disruption.Marina works with leaders to navigate emotional recovery after layoffs, bankruptcies, and burnout—real losses that rarely get social support. Together we unpack how AI, rapid change, and relentless uncertainty are reshaping not just business models, but our nervous systems.The conversation moves from neurophysiology to leadership—why trauma isn't just mental, how adaptation speed varies person to person, and why founders need to treat resilience like revenue: measurable, trackable, and intentional.TL;DR* Entrepreneurial trauma: Failure leaves real physiological marks—acknowledge them.* AI stress loop: Fast tech shifts can outpace human adaptability.* Preventive care: Sleep, nutrition, and movement fuel better decisions.* Control what's controllable: Focus energy on what you can change.* Resilience is ROI: Strong nervous systems create stronger companies.* Professional help matters: When reactions don't fit reality, therapy restores alignment.Memorable lines* “Trauma isn't just in your head—it's in your MRI.”* “AI change is faster than our ability to adapt.”* “Your physical condition is your first strategy.”* “Resilience isn't luck—it's management.”Guest: Marina Morgan — Founder, Morgan ImpactLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marinamorgan-sf/Website: https://themorganimpact.com/Why it mattersEntrepreneurs experience real trauma—but rarely name it.

See all the Healthcasts at https://www.biobalancehealth.com/healthcast-blog You can convince yourself of a fairy tale that the US government provides us with excellent advice on how to be healthy—for instance, what the percentages of each food group should be, like the food pyramid or the food plate. However, time has shown that they aren't focused on our health with their recommendations; rather, they are attempting to promote the food produced in the US. It's all about money. We now understand that the government-approved food pyramid has contributed to an increase in obesity, illness, and diabetes over the last 60 years, primarily because its main goal was to promote grains in the form of cereals to children. This has led to the unfortunate situation we face today, characterized by rising rates of diabetes and obesity.  To make matters worse, iodine has been removed from bread and other foods, leaving many Americans with hypothyroidism.   The allowed food additives extend shelf life (and profits) but diminish human longevity. Ultimately, the government should not dictate our dietary choices! Supplements are substances like minerals, vitamins, peptides, and glandulars intended to enhance the inadequate American diet; however, medical societies and the FDA do not endorse their use. Nonetheless, we need them to improve nutrition, prevent disease, and provide the building blocks for bones and muscles, as well as to counteract the chemicals present in our water, food, and air mandated by the government. Supplements help protect us from the poor advice and environmental pollution we encounter in everyday life. Environmental regulations and processes have resulted in increased illnesses, such as hypothyroidism, due to the addition of fluoride to our water instead of solely to our toothpaste.  Fluoride depletes iodine levels in our breasts and thyroid, contributing to conditions like breast cysts, breast cancer, and hypothyroidism. Regarding water—are you aware that the water treatment managed by our local governments incorporates harmful chemicals into our drinking water, which may be carcinogenic, in an effort to prevent lead from leaching from very old pipes? This system is outdated because most of the population uses copper or plastic pipes, and lead has not been used in construction for more than 50 years. The anti-lead chemicals that are added can adversely affect our health. That is just the tip of the iceberg. Other examples of how our government prioritizes profit over the health of its citizens include allowing big pharma to price necessary medicines beyond the reach of the average person, all to enhance the stock value of these companies. The price of the same drug from the same manufacturer in other countries is significantly lower than for its own citizens. It should be the other way around. Even then, we are sicker and heavier than any other first-world country. Since you are not here to learn about politics, this serves as my segue into discussing the current denigration of the importance of vitamins and mineral supplements for our health. Just consider this:  the average diet consists of processed foods lacking any nutritional value. Fast food contains additives that encourage us to eat more rather than less; portion sizes have increased, and the consumption of whole foods has declined over my lifetime. These are the most compelling reasons I have for taking nutritional supplements that we used to get from our diets before the 1960s. Since we know our patients are consuming chemicals that harm their health, my goal as a preventive medicine doctor, along with my nurses and nurse practitioners, is to keep our patients healthy, even when the government does not!   You should heed our recommendations for specific supplements tailored to your individual symptoms and future health. Public health aims to make the group generically “healthier” by governmental standards, but medical care should prioritize our patients, striving for each individual to live a long, disease-free life. However, we face significant misinformation in this battle! Why don't mainstream medical groups recommend supplements? Their reasons include a focus on illness rather than wellness, making them more reactive than preventive in perspective. Additionally, most doctors lack training in nutrition and are often unhealthy and overweight. Another factor is that they primarily deal with medications and surgeries, which is what they typically recommend. In the twenty-first century, we all need supplemental nutrition.  I don't have a single patient whom I believe is getting everything she needs from her diet without supplements. Supplements include minerals, vitamins, herbs, select foods, and animal glands that help maintain health and prevent illness by compensating for what modern food may lack. The supplements recommended by your BioBalance Health doctor and NPs are tailored to meet various individual needs, so please read about why we prescribe these supplements specifically for you. Supplements add to the nutrients that are missing from our modern diet.   What health benefits can supplements offer? Act as alternatives to medication Enhance the activity of deficient hormones as people age Stimulate the production of hormones Provide the right form of a vitamin that you need and can't get from food Replace the minerals that are lacking in locally grown foods and water Supplements can replace the natural components of drinking water Supplements provide minerals and vitamins that prevent diseases like hypothyroidism. Supplemental animal glandulars are successful at reversing deficiencies that are not available in FDA-approved drugs. Preventive medicine physicians recommend supplements for various reasons: To improve your nutrition To mitigate genetic abnormalities such as elevated homocysteine levels. To counteract chemicals in the environment To treat medical conditions with no known medications To supply certain minerals that are deficient in your area of our country To treat abnormal hormone levels like low thyroid To treat certain symptoms and conditions that have no other solution To prevent future disease To stimulate the production of certain hormones to take the place of a prescription drug To detoxify your liver and gut To improve the absorption of nutrients in the gut To supply minerals and vitamins for osteoporosis To improve your mental health by improving the bacteria in your gut Assist in weight loss My goal is to educate people honestly about the tools they can use to maintain their health and extend their lifespan.  A few words of caution should be added to complete this lesson. Please avoid using the cheapest vitamin or mineral supplement on Amazon unless your doctor has prescribed that specific brand.  Many supplement companies are not “Medical Grade, ” meaning they are not tested and approved by agencies that ensure you receive an effective supplement with your purchase.  Amazon has been found to sell vitamins packaged in reputable brand bottles that contain capsules with none of the expected supplements inside! BioBalance Health and BioBalance Skin provide tested medical-grade products, ensuring you take the right supplements for the desired effect.  We cannot expect the same quality from most supplements available online. Avoid taking a supplement just because someone else is using it; you might not need it, or worse, it could have negative effects. Trust experts to evaluate what you truly need and what you can do without. When you have a consultation with a BioBalance doctor or NP for your yearly visit, please bring a list of your medications and supplements to discuss with them. Please do not call our RN or email your list for their opinion. Evaluating your needs and aligning them with your supplements requires time.

In this episode of Healthy Waves by Healthy Mind By Avik™, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with David Hunter, founder of Global Phytoplankton Alliance, to uncover the untapped potential of marine phytoplankton for human health, brain function, and sustainability. David shares how a microscopic ocean plant, often invisible to the naked eye, may hold the foundation for human vitality—supporting cellular repair, energy, and even mental clarity. With nearly 20 years of experience, he discusses the surprising history of phytoplankton in nutrition, how it contributes to Earth's oxygen supply, and why it might reshape the way we think about supplements, immunity, and disease prevention. Whether you're curious about brain health, natural nutrition, or the future of sustainable wellness, this conversation offers insights you won't want to miss. About the Guest  : David Hunter is the founder of Global Phytoplankton Alliance. Nearly two decades ago, he witnessed phytoplankton transform a life when nothing else worked. Since then, he has dedicated himself to educating the world on how these microscopic organisms—responsible for much of Earth's oxygen—could be the missing link in human health, foundational nutrition, and planetary sustainability. Key Takeaways:   Medical Disclaimer  : The content in this episode and its accompanying show notes is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition, nutrition, or supplementation—including marine phytoplankton or any nutraceuticals. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you heard in this episode. Statements discussed here (including any potential benefits of phytoplankton) have not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Medicines Agency (EMA), or any other regulatory authority. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Individual results may vary. If you are pregnant, nursing, have a medical condition, or are taking prescription or over-the-counter medications, consult your healthcare professional before using any supplement. Discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional if you experience any adverse reaction. In case of a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately. All opinions expressed by the guest are their own and do not represent the views of the host or Healthy Mind By Avik™.   Phytoplankton is the original source of nutrition, containing essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in their purest form. Marine phytoplankton provides 60–75% of the oxygen we breathe, making it critical for planetary and human health. Unlike synthetic supplements, phytoplankton nutrients bypass digestion and may feed directly into human cells. Stories of improved energy, mental clarity, reduced migraines, and other benefits highlight its potential role in foundational wellness. Growing phytoplankton on land in clean, filtered seawater avoids ocean depletion and provides a sustainable nutrient source. Its potential impact could disrupt the supplement industry and support a healthier, more resilient global population. Preventive health—focusing on nourishment before illness—can reduce dependency on reactionary treatments. The future of wellness may be less about "bigger solutions" and more about microscopic foundations.

Dimple Jangda shares how Ayurveda views gut health as the foundation of overall well-being, warning against wrong food combinations like dairy with fruits that can damage the gut and lead to chronic diseases. She emphasizes preventive healthcare through mindful eating, aligning routines with natural body clocks, and choosing natural alternatives like coconut or almond milk. Blending her personal health journey with Ayurvedic principles, she highlights the importance of repairing the gut, balancing Kapha, Pitta, and Vata, and making health, not wealth, the true priority for a long, happy, and disease-free life.

In this powerful episode we speak with Dr. Aimie Apigian—double board-certified physician and author of The Biology of Trauma. Together, they explore how trauma is stored not only in the mind, but also in the cells and biology of the body, affecting everything from mental health to chronic fatigue and even fertility. Dr. Aimie shares her transformative personal journey from allopathic medicine to trauma healing, and how unresolved stress patterns manifest as physical symptoms like brain fog, hormone imbalances, and autoimmune conditions.Whether you're struggling with health issues, infertility, or burnout—or you're a practitioner supporting others—this episode sheds light on how to recognize, repair, and restore your biology from the inside out using an integrative mind-body-somatic approach.Key Takeaways:Trauma is stored in the cells and nervous system, not just the mind—affecting your energy, mood, and health.Stress and trauma are different states: stress is high-energy survival; trauma is shut down when the body feels it can't cope.Morning fatigue, brain fog, and emotional reactivity are signs your body may be stuck in a trauma response.Somatic practices can shift biology quickly, often more effectively than supplements or traditional therapy.True resilience is adaptability—the ability to meet change with flexibility, not by shrinking or avoiding.Dr. Aimie Apigian Bio:Dr. Aimie Apigian, MD, MS, MPH, is a double board-certified physician in Preventive and Addiction Medicine with advanced degrees in Biochemistry and Public Health. She is the founder of The Mind-Body-Biology Institute and creator of The Biology of Trauma®, a pioneering framework that integrates medicine, neuroscience, and somatic therapies to address how trauma is stored in the body—and how to heal it. Inspired by her personal journey as a foster and adoptive mother, Dr. Aimie blends rigorous science with deep compassion to help individuals and practitioners achieve lasting transformation. Her book, The Biology of Trauma, reveals the cellular and emotional roots of fear, pain, and overwhelm, and offers a practical path to true mind-body-biology healing.Where to find Dr. Aimie Apigian:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/draimie/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-aimie-apigianYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DrAimieApigianWebsite: https://biologyoftrauma.com/Podcast: https://biologyoftrauma.com/biology-of-trauma-podcast/Book: https://book.biologyoftrauma.com/landing-page***** I am giving away my 5 Day Nervous System reset, a Masterclass on the book and the 1st three chapters of my book to those who pre-order the book now. *** How to connect to Lorne Brown online and in person (Vancouver, BC)

As practitioners, it's crucial to approach patient care holistically, not just focusing on immediate pain relief but also on sustaining health. Here's how you can incorporate these principles into your practice. **The Role of Preventive and Maintenance Care** Preventive and maintenance care are pivotal in enhancing patient well-being and preventing relapses of pain or discomfort. Regular assessments and maintenance plans ensure that patients maintain their health rather than seeking treatment only when something goes wrong. This approach is similar to routine car maintenance, where regular ‘tune-ups' can prevent major breakdowns. Encourage your patients to view healthcare as an ongoing journey, emphasizing that staying well is equally as important as getting well. **Communication: A Key Component** Communication is paramount in addressing patients' concerns and understanding their needs. Educate patients about the importance of maintaining their health. Use analogies relatable to everyday experiences, like dental hygiene or car maintenance, to explain why continuous care is essential even when symptoms seem mild or nonexistent. Addressing concerns openly helps in building trust and encourages compliance with treatment plans. **Approaching Complex Cases** In handling complex cases involving conditions like diabetic wounds or spinal stenosis, it is crucial to analyze the root causes. Persistent issues often require an understanding of underlying factors such as circulatory problems or systemic conditions. Collaborate with other healthcare providers to offer additional perspectives and develop comprehensive treatment strategies. For instance, explore beyond the immediate problem by considering factors like circulation when addressing diabetic foot ulcers or delving into structural causes for spinal stenosis. The integration of various therapeutic approaches and technologies can offer relief and significantly alter a patient's quality of life. **Continuous Learning and Adaptation** Medicine is an ever-evolving field, and practitioners should continuously seek new knowledge and integrate it into their practice. Attend educational courses and workshops to stay updated with the latest advancements and approaches in treatment. Additionally, sharing insights with peers can lead to a better understanding of patient management and enhance collective knowledge.

RFK Jr. says doctors like me don't want you to get better. Apparently, we're part of a vast system designed to keep you sick. So I did what any responsible, monocle-wearing ophthalmologist would do, I pulled up his tweet and walked through it point by point. In this solo episode, I talk about how this kind of medical misinformation spreads, how it erodes trust in the entire healthcare system, and why calling out conspiracy thinking isn't the same as silencing dissent. I also get into preventive care (spoiler: it works), how medicine actually functions in a profit-driven world, and the importance of separating critique from flat-out falsehood. Let's just say, this was a good week to check in on your blood pressure. Takeaways: RFK Jr. believes doctors are incentivized to prolong sickness—not health. Will breaks down where this rhetoric veers from skepticism into straight-up fantasy. Preventive care is under attack, but here's why it still matters. Misinformation isn't just annoying—it can be dangerous. You can criticize healthcare without implying your pediatrician is a cartoon villain. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Send us a textWhy are U.S. health care costs so high—and what does that mean for you and your family? In this episode, I dive into the real reasons behind America's staggering health care bills.We start with a story that hits close to home—a $189,000 outpatient cancer surgery bill followed by $12,000-a-month immunotherapy—and I unpack how even with Medicare coverage, the pricing dynamics can feel shocking. Using my experience as a physician and health policy researcher, I explain why these massive charges happen and where the system is breaking down.At the national level, we now spend over $5 trillion a year on health care—roughly 18% of our GDP—and this number is growing far faster than inflation. This growth threatens the solvency of key programs like Medicare, which is projected to run out of funds by 2033 (Health Affairs). Employers are also feeling the pinch, with average family coverage costs now topping $25,500 annually (WSJ). Individuals, especially those using ACA exchanges, face rising premiums—some increasing by 20–30% next year (Axios)—and deductibles between $3,000 and $5,000 are now typical.Despite all this spending, our health outcomes are among the worst in the developed world. The U.S. ranks 33rd in infant mortality and 32nd in life expectancy out of 38 OECD countries, even though we spend about $12,000 per person annually—nearly three times the OECD average (America's Health Rankings).So, what drives these costs? It boils down to three factors: high prices, high utilization, and high administrative overhead. Prices for common procedures are far above international norms—a CT scan in the U.S. costs around $900 compared to $279 in the Netherlands and just $97 in Canada (Health Imaging). U.S. physicians, nurses, and hospital executives also earn significantly more, contributing to overall spending (Medscape; JAMA).On the utilization front, studies estimate that around 25% of all care may be unnecessary, driven by defensive medicine, patient expectations, and incentive structures that reward more procedures—not necessarily better outcomes (PGPF; Choosing Wisely).Even administrative overhead plays a massive role: nearly 25% of U.S. health care spending goes to bureaucracy—four times what's typical in simpler, single-payer systems (Health System Tracker; Health Affairs%20of%20US%20GDP)).If you're wondering why your doctor spends just 17 minutes with you or why your premiums feel like a second mortgage, this episode offers the context—and data—to help you understand what's really going on.Takeaways: Start asking about cash prices—especially if you're still in your deductible phase. Preventive steps like regular exercise may offer the highest return on investment when compared to costly downstream care. And above all, consider your plan carefully during open enrollment.For deeper insights, links to all the studies mentioned, and access to my newslet

The future of Disease Care medicine is described as Predictive, Preventive, Personalized, Participatory, and Precision.  But as we first started to discuss on last week's show, Dr. Prather says all of those elements are already available in Structure-Function Health Care.  In this episode, we talk about:—How two patients diagnosed with the same Cancer can have different underlying causes for the same Disease. —The importance of getting to the root cause of an issue in Structure-Function Health Care, while Disease Care focuses on symptoms. —Why Dr. Prather actually cautions his patients against doing parasite cleanses or a Liver flush on their own.  And the gentle approach he utilizes instead. —The critical aspect of patient participation for Structure-Function Care to work, as the doctor and patient have to "work together."—How patients who understand their health condition actually report less pain and discomfort.  And why Dr. Prather always makes sure a patient receives a copy their lab tests with his own notes showing the numbers they are trying to achieve.—The features of Homeopathic Medicine that were actually copied by the pharmaceutical industry and even "led the way" in many of changes made by pharmaceutical companies. —Why both the diagnostics and treatments in Dr. Prather's office all focus on precision to target exactly what the patient needs.  And why the "normal" ranges listed on lab tests are not the "ideal" ranges you actually need for good health. —How Dr. Prather describes Disease Care like a football team's offense, while Structure-Function Care is a team's defense.  And how "defense wins championships".—Why using Structure-Function Health Care as primary care can improve outcomes by 85% and can also solve America's National debt.—The number one thing Dr. Prather would change in how medicine is practiced today. http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

Embracing wellness throughout our lifespan is crucial for maintaining physical, mental, and emotional health as we grow older. Here are some key strategies to promote healthy aging and ensure we live our best lives at any age.   1. Stay Physically Active Regular physical activity is one of the most important aspects of healthy aging. Exercise helps maintain muscle strength, flexibility, and balance, reducing the risk of falls and injuries. It also supports cardiovascular health and aids in weight management. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise each week, including activities like walking, swimming, or cycling, as well as strength training exercises.   2. Eat a Balanced Diet Nutrition plays a vital role in healthy aging. A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats provides essential nutrients that support overall health. Pay attention to portion sizes and hydration, and limit the intake of processed foods, sugar, and salt. Incorporating foods rich in antioxidants, such as berries, nuts, and leafy greens, can help combat oxidative stress and promote cellular health.   3. Prioritize Mental Health Mental health is equally important as physical health in the aging process. Engage in activities that stimulate your mind, such as reading, puzzles, or learning new skills. Social connections also play a crucial role in mental well-being. Stay connected with friends and family, join clubs or groups, and participate in community activities to foster a sense of belonging and support.   4. Get Regular Health Check-ups Regular medical check-ups are essential for early detection and management of health conditions. Keep up with screenings and vaccinations, and communicate openly with your healthcare provider about any concerns or changes in your health. Preventive care and early intervention can significantly improve outcomes and enhance your quality of life.   5. Practice Good Sleep Hygiene Quality sleep is fundamental to healthy aging. Aim for 7-9 hours of sleep each night and establish a consistent sleep routine. Create a comfortable sleep environment, limit exposure to screens before bedtime, and avoid caffeine and heavy meals in the evening. Good sleep supports cognitive function, mood regulation, and overall physical health.   6. Manage Stress Effectively Chronic stress can have detrimental effects on health. Incorporate stress-reducing practices into your daily routine, such as mindfulness meditation, deep breathing exercises, or yoga. Finding hobbies and activities that bring joy and relaxation can also help manage stress and improve overall well-being.   7. Stay Hydrated Hydration is crucial for maintaining bodily functions and overall health. As we age, our sense of thirst may diminish, making it important to consciously drink enough water throughout the day. Aim for at least eight glasses of water daily, and adjust your intake based on activity level and climate.   8. Avoid Harmful Habits Avoiding harmful habits like smoking and excessive alcohol consumption is vital for healthy aging. Smoking and heavy drinking can lead to numerous health issues, including heart disease, cancer, and liver damage. If you need help quitting, seek support from healthcare professionals or support groups.   9. Maintain a Positive Attitude A positive outlook on life can greatly influence your health and well-being. Cultivate gratitude, practice self-compassion, and focus on the things that bring you happiness and fulfillment. Engaging in activities that you are passionate about and setting achievable goals can provide a sense of purpose and direction.   10. Stay Engaged and Active in Your Community Being active in your community can provide a sense of purpose and belonging. Volunteer, join clubs or groups, and participate in community events. Staying engaged with others helps maintain social connections, which are crucial for mental and emotional health.   Healthy aging is about embracing wellness throughout the lifespan by making conscious choices that promote physical, mental, and emotional health. By staying active, eating a balanced diet, prioritizing mental health, and maintaining social connections, we can enhance our quality of life and age gracefully. Remember, it's never too late to start making positive changes that contribute to a healthier, happier life.

Michael joins me in studio to talk about the importance of filing preventative grievances. Most of our grievances are reactionary, responding AFTER the damage has been done. Michael makes the argument that there is a role for grievances before the harms to carriers become great.
