In this episode we speak with Kristin Grayce McGary (LAc., MAc., CFMP®, CST-T, CLP) and explore functional blood work—a deeper, more holistic way of interpreting lab results. Instead of just looking for illness, functional testing helps us understand where the body may be out of balance, often long before symptoms become serious. From nutrient deficiencies and hormone imbalances to hidden inflammation and stress markers, functional blood work can be a powerful tool for creating truly personalized health plans. Kristen Grayce is an internationally recognized health and lifestyle alchemist, author, and speaker. She weaves together 28 years of experience, education, wisdom, and compassion to empower you to reconnect, reawaken, and rejuvenate on all levels She is an authority on autoimmunity, functional blood chemistry analysis, thyroid and gut health, family healthcare, food as medicine, integrating mind/body/spirit in health & soulcare, and is initiated into several lineages of shamanic practices. In her alchemical practice of individualized health & soulcare, she has mastered dozens of modalities including acupuncture and Asian medicine, advanced craniosacral and somatoemotional release, neural and perineural therapy, homeopathy, functional healthcare, family constellation, medical Qi Gong, Psychosomatics, meditation, shamanic ceremony, and more. She is the author of Holistic Keto for Gut Health: A Program for Resetting your Metabolism and Know Your Blood, Know Your Health; Prevent Disease and Enjoy Vibrant Health Through Functional Blood Chemistry Analysis. Her upcoming book is on Blocks to Healing and how to resolve them quickly. Learning Points: What is functional bloodwork? How does functional bloodwork go beyond conventional testing?

Get my free guided practice here: https://learn.taylorjohnson.life/embodiment - and know this: Most men trying to improve their sex lives are missing one crucial ingredient: embodiment. And this is one of the main reasons why so many men have "tried all the techniques" but still struggle with premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction and sexual performance anxiety...To overcome these challenges, you HAVE TO do some kind of embodiment practice - in addition to learning the direct sexual techniques that address the sexual "dysfunctions." The techniques alone won't cut it...*NOTE: This episode was originally filmed for Youtube, but I decided to put it here as a podcast episode as an experiment. You can watch the video on youtube here.

For most spiritual schools are important to grow your spirituality, be it the Kundalini or that you open your heart, third eye, and crone chakra…And for that we need energy!Our whole body needs his energy to stay healthy and for sexuality…. If we use our sexual energy for our spirituality then everything would be easy. Because our body uses 1/3 of his energy just only for sex…We can even use our sexual energy to heal our spine or growing our brain… We hear from our spiritual gurus that sex is bad…And I absolutely agree to a certain level, so it would be much better if the guru's parents had avoided making sex to create such a creature (Guru) that is denying sex!!! If you deny, abuse, or think negatively about sex or afraid of sex, then your first chakra or the chakra that is responsible for the sex is blocked… So that you can't use your sexual energy for your spirituality or even worse you will attract diseases that are related to sex. Monks and Nuns have 2 times more prostate cancer or breast cancer than normal beings!!!!!!Let look at how sex energy is causing a Samadhi! When a baby sucks the mother milk, it goes in a Samadhi when the mother is loving and gives the baby the time that it needs to suck the milk in a calm way… How does the baby make that? The Taoist found out: When the baby sucks the milk, it squeezes the vagina muscles or it pulls up the testicles without squeezing the anus… At the same time, it pulls up the energy from the lowest chakra to the crone chakra. And then it needs to breathe out and breathe in and breath out… In this time it squeezes the tongue against the roof of the mouth and it relaxes the muscles of the vagina or testicles… Maybe, we have done it before… Today, the Taoists are doing the same thing … They just imagine to suck milk and when breathing in they contract these muscles and by breathing out they put the tongue against roof of the mouth and relax these muscles… After the Qigong and the Yoga system, we have a gate of death/hell, where the spirit/soul leaves our body when the body dies… And this gate of death is located at the lowest point of our body this means the vagina or the bone-cave between the testicles and the anus… And this Gate (related to the huh sound) has energetically a direct connection to the crone chakra… The next important Energy-point (related to the Ohm sound) is at the end of the vagina (uterus mouth)… Both points are crucial for the Kundalini or for spiritual energy… If we do have an energy-block in this area, the energy can not be used for healing, spirituality and even will cause severe diseases… For the females is sex in any case good! Because a normal woman feels love when she has intercourse with her darling… this means she pulls up the energy from her lowest chakra to her heart chakra… And she gets the male energy for free! Even better if the clitoris is stimulated all of her organs will be energized … Never the less, the females lose all of their sexual energy, during their periods. For the males is a certain amount of sex good. The males lose their energy when they ejaculate… And too many ejaculations leads to severe diseases (aids, immune weakness) and premature aging. Never the less the males can learn Tao-love or the sexual Tantra to even enjoy more the sex without too many ejaculations…If the males reduce the number of ejaculations to 50% everything will work out good. How we can get the energy upwards…1.) Make the Kundalini meditation from Osho15 minutes shake the body from the pelvic on… this means the pelvic should go forward and backward (similar to intercourse). 15 minutes dance in ecstasy.15 minutes sit relaxed with the spine straight without moving.15 minutes sit or lay down on the back without moving… With sounds Huh, ohm, ha, iStart with the ‘Huh' sound (like school) (from the lowest point of the body) then the Ohm sound below the navel in the middle of the body (uterus mouth) then the ‘Ha' or ‘A' sound (like Allah) in your heart chakra and the I sound (like India) for the crone and third eye chakra… If you would sing gospels like the Africans you will gain the same… You sing always from the area of the vagina and if you long for God then your energy will raise from the lowest chakra to the crone chakra… My Video: How can gurus be an obstacle? https://youtu.be/Pkn7hnVTAJoMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast1/how-can-gurus-be-an-obstacle.mp3

What are you ready to let go of? Autumn is nature's reminder to refine and simplify.In this episode, podcast host Elizabeth Mintun talks about how fall is a season of transition - a time when nature contracts, leaves fall, and we're invited to distill what is truly essential. In Chinese medicine and Qigong, Fall corresponds with the Metal element, connected to clarity, refinement, and the wisdom of letting go.Elizabeth delves into how autumn and the Metal element of Ancient Chinese Medicine can guide you through letting go with grace. She shares how the Metal element shows up in our bodies, emotions, and daily lives, and offers simple, practical ways to honor this season. Key TakeawaysGrief is the primary emotion of the Metal element in Ancient Chinese Medicine; honoring grief can open space for clarity and new beginnings.Research shows that breathwork stimulates the vagus nerve and mindful breathing builds resilience.Mindful decluttering, rituals for release, and reflective journaling are all wonderful activities to gain clarity to honor what truly matters in this season of letting go.Resources Podcast Episode The Empty Space: Grieving What Could Have Been: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-calming-ground-podcast/id1704337948?i=1000696134741Learn more about 1:1 Coaching with Elizabeth Mintun here.

Are you having a hard time falling asleep, staying asleep, experiencing crazy dreams, or not feeling well rested despite a full night's sleep? Is it your mind, your body, or both that are keeping you awake?These are the questions we're going to dive into on this week's episode, which unpacks sleep from a Chinese Medicine perspective. Chinese Medicine (CM) is an ancient, indigenous system of healing that developed through the study of the body's energy systems. I've personally found this lens of seeing the body to be both enlightening and clarifying—it just makes sense.It's safe to say that all forms of medicine—whether Eastern, Western, holistic, or allopathic—agree that sleep is one of the most important functions of the human body. If you're not sleeping, your body will struggle and eventually fail to function fully. CM is particularly effective for treating sleep disorders because its system of pattern diagnosis and treatment is entirely unique to each individual.On this episode, we dive into the roots, branches, and varied patterns of sleep disorders.Highlights from this episode:I unpack the role of the main organ-energy pathways (meridians) involved in sleep: the Heart, Liver, and Kidneys.The perspective CM has toward the soul/spirit, how it divides it into five aspects, and how they contribute to sleep quality and dreams.The unique system of the CM body clock and how it can help you get better sleep.Common herbal formulas used to treat sleep disorders.Related Episodes: Whispers of Clarity p. 2: Qi Gong #56Whispers of Qi and Blood #67Whispers of Digestion and Food Therapy from a TCM Perspective #72Whispers of Women's Cycles from a TCM Perspective #74p.1 :10 Ways You're Hurting Your Health According to a Student of Chinese Medicine #30p.2 : 10 Ways You're Hurting Your Health According to a Student of Chinese Medicine #35Whispers of Esoteric Acupuncture (and Qi Gong) p. 2 with Dr. AdamsonIf you'd like to connect with Stephanie, you can find her here:Instagram-@schoolofwhispers @__steef___ email-schoolofwhispers@gmail.com If you would like to schedule an acupuncture appointment with Stephanie at her current clinic, Balance Point Acupuncture, you can either visit www.balancepointacu.com or call 561-615-4535 to schedule your appointment todayDISCLAIMER: This podcast is presented for educational and exploratory purposes only.

You've built a beautiful life on paper but know there's something deeper calling you forward.I woke up at 5 AM with ideas flowing, and realized I needed to share an idea that's been crystallizing for me - the one ingredient for building aligned work that we often skip in our rush to "figure it all out."You'll hear about:The honest moment when I realized I was pouring my best self into work and had little left for what matteredHow being physically present but emotionally absent became my wake-up callWhy tending to your energy comes before any career exploration or purpose-finding exercisesWhy creating meaningful work requires the kind of energy that flows from being deeply nourishedThe simple foundations that actually restores you: quality rest, sunlight, movement that feels goodHow I found Qigong when my body was asking for gentleness, not an intense workoutWhy building work you love is beautifully non-linear and requires sustained inner resourcesHow my business pivot taught me that each iteration demands fresh creative energyThe truth about manifestation that nobody mentions: it takes life force to bring dreams into realityThe heart of it: Your dreams deserve to be built from a place of fullness. When you're running on empty, you can't access the intuition, creativity, and courage that your calling requires.This isn't about perfecting yourself before you go for your dreams. It's about honoring yourself enough to fill up your own cup.This is a must have if you're looking to design work on your own terms that's energy giving to you!Writer Sherianna Boyle said it brilliantly-It takes energy to manifestHere is a link to interview with Sherianna:Listen HereWhat is one thing you and your body need to increase your energy level?A little more sleep, water, nature, whole foods, movement?Can you truly prioritize it and start allowing yourself to recharge?Let me know what resonated most with you, and what is your heart longing for when it comes to your work in this season?DM me on IG www.instagram.com/careerintechnicolorMove with me www.instagram.com/reigniteyourvitality Xo,BaibaSupport the show
Grandpa Bill talks about Qi Gong-Hello and thank you for tuning into "Workouts for Geriatrics, AKA, Silver Streakers, Good for All Kids from 1-92!" I'm your host, Grandpa Bill, and today on the BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast, we're diving into a practice that's as ancient as it is effective for a long and healthy life: Qi Gong.Now, you might have heard of Tai Chi, but Qi Gong is its close cousin, and in many ways, its parent. The name itself is a clue: "Qi" (pronounced "chee") is the life force or energy that flows through our bodies, and "Gong" means cultivation or work. So, Qi Gong is the art of cultivating and working with our life energy.An Overview of Qi GongSo, what exactly does a Qi Gong session look like? Well, it's not about breaking a sweat or lifting heavy weights. It's about slow, mindful movements, coordinated with deep, diaphragmatic breathing. Think of it as a moving meditation.The core principles are:Gentle Movement: The movements are soft, fluid, and circular. We're not pushing our bodies to their limits; we're coaxing them into a state of balance.Mindfulness: The mind is focused on the body, on the breath, and on the feeling of Qi flowing. This helps to calm the nervous system and reduce stress.Deep Breathing: We breathe from the belly, not the chest. This helps to oxygenate the blood, calm the mind, and energize the body.Example: The Wall ExerciseNow, for a simple and effective Qi Gong exercise you can do right now, I'm going to teach you "The Wall Exercise." All you need is a wall.Find your spot: Stand with your back against a wall, about a foot away.Slide down: Slowly slide your back down the wall until your knees are bent at a 90-degree angle, as if you're sitting in an invisible chair. Make sure your back is flat against the wall.Breathe deeply: As you hold this position, breathe deeply and slowly. Feel the strength in your legs, but also the calm in your mind.Rise up: After a few breaths, slowly and gently push yourself back up the wall to a standing position.Repeat: Do this a few times, increasing the hold time as you feel more comfortable.This exercise is fantastic for building leg strength, improving balance, and calming the mind. It's safe, effective, and can be done by anyone, no matter their age or fitness level.Why Qi Gong is a perfect workout for "Silver Streakers"Joint-friendly: The slow, gentle movements are easy on the joints, making it a great alternative to high-impact exercises.Improves balance: Many Qi Gong exercises focus on balance, which is crucial for preventing falls as we age.Reduces stress: The combination of mindful movement and deep breathing is a powerful stress-reliever.Increases energy: By cultivating Qi, we can increase our vitality and energy levels, helping us to feel younger and more vibrant.So, whether you're 19 or 92, Qi Gong has something to offer. It's a journey into your own inner energy, a way to connect with your body and mind, and a path to a healthier, more balanced life.#QiGong,#GeriatricFitness,#GrandpaBill,#SilverStreakers,#WorkoutsForGeriatrics,#HolisticHealing,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#MindfulMovement,#Longevity,#AncientWisdom,

As a Christian women in this midlife season you are probably doing some sort of stretching or fitness routine to help your aching joints, menopausal belly bloat and for overall wellbeing. AND As a Christian woman, you want to hear the truth right? As a follower of Jesus, you want to hear the truth right from God's word. This conversation is rooted in biblical truth that God wants you to know about, regarding the fitness routine you may be innocently doing. More women in this midlife season are practicing yoga as they have found it is gentle on the joints. Yoga, tai chi and qigong are fitness modalities to help you build strength, stretch, relax and reduce some stress. But are they as innocent as they seem? These practices have deep and powerful spiritual roots that we all need to be aware of. The enemy is using these innocent seeming practices to twist what God clearly says is occult in His word. After all, the enemy's game is the same: to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10). Many believers, are inviting spiritual oppression into their lives and not even meaning to! Could this be the ROOT of some health issues that may be lingering no matter what you do? I sit down with Apostle Richard Taylor, founder of The Master's Table Ministry and Rabbonis Love INC- He brings a powerful and biblical view on the dangers of yoga tai chi and qigong and explains why it's vital that we are aware of these dangers that can deceive. I also invited Ondrea Lynn back from the Christian Woman's Weight Loss Podcast as she comes from an occult background where she was heavily involved in new age practices for 30 years. Ondrea has helped thousands of women reach their personal health and wellness goals and improve their physical and nutritional health, as well as their emotional and spiritual well-being. As always, you will want to take everything you hear today to the Lord and seek Him on this topic. We were obedient to the Lord to bring you this information and it's now up to you to seek Him for your discernment and direction. I invite you to stay to the end for a powerful prayer that Apostle Richard prays over you. As always you won't just leave with information today. Information + implementation WITH God is what will bring you healing growth and restoration.

What does it take to heal beyond the pills, the quick fixes, and the 15-minute doctor visits? For today's episode of The Ripple Effect Podcast, we have Cristi Cuellar, also known as “Austin's Holistic Physical Therapist,” who has spent the last 18 years transforming lives through her approach to healing. With a passion for alternative pain management, she champions conscious exercise and an anti-inflammatory lifestyle, emphasizing personalized, one-on-one care that addresses the root causes of pain. In 2016, Cristi enhanced her expertise by becoming certified in dry needling, inspired by its rapid benefits in her own journey—from a high school athlete who tore her Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), to becoming a physical therapist, and ultimately launching C&C Dry Needling, her own wellness clinic in South Lamar. We talk about what makes her approach so unique, which is the 5R wellness method that helps patients reset their nervous system, repair soft tissue, and truly reclaim their health. She takes pride in listening to her patients' complete stories, creating a holistic pathway to optimal health and empowerment. Cristi has a Bachelor's of Health and Science Degree from Baylor University and a Master of Physical Therapy Degree from Texas State University. As a licensed Physical Therapist, she has various continuing education certifications in Dry Needling, Exercise Correction, Reformer Pilates, Manual Therapy, YogaFit, Qigong, and Kinesiotaping techniques. She has also been part of the CHEK (Corrective Holistic Exercise Kinesiology) Institute as a Holistic Lifestyle Coach for over 6 years. She is an advocate for functional medicine, emotional intelligence, and spiritual growth, and a fan of Dr. Mark Hyman, Andrew Huberman, Dr. Stacy Sims, Dr. Joe Dispenza, and Brene Brown. If you've ever wondered how mind-body healing really works, or why traditional physical therapy sometimes misses the bigger picture, you're going to love hearing Cristi's perspective on holistic injury recovery, patient empowerment, and creating balance in life. Cristi's story proves that healing isn't just about the body. It's about the mind, emotions, and spirit working together. Do you enjoy listening to experts from diverse fields?

Why do some people freeze or panic under pressure, while others access clarity, calm, and even bliss? In this soul-expanding episode of The Catherine Plano Podcast, breathwork pioneer and best-selling author Dan Brulé shares how the simple act of breathing—done consciously—can rival the effects of psychedelics for emotional healing, energy regulation, and spiritual awakening. From training elite military personnel and Olympic athletes to guiding people into non-ordinary states of consciousness, Dan has dedicated his life to helping others use their breath as a tool for transformation. And in this conversation, he reveals just how accessible—and profound—this inner technology really is. This isn't just a conversation about calming down or improving your fitness. It's a masterclass in how breath can unlock emotional release, heal trauma, and expand consciousness—all without substances, rituals, or complicated techniques. Dan explores the breath as our first and last connection to life, the bridge between the conscious and subconscious mind, and the key to healing everything from childhood imprints to chronic stress. He also shares the origin of his fascination with breath—from a biblical story in Catholic school to near-death experiences and working with trauma survivors. Through grounded storytelling, scientific insights, and spiritual wisdom, Dan reveals: How breathwork mimics the effects of psychedelics—without substances or side effects Why your first breath at birth could be shaping your stress patterns today The real reason we unconsciously hold our breath—and how it sabotages our health and joy How to read your breath like a mirror of your emotional and energetic state The practice of “cyclical sighing”—and why it outperforms most meditation techniques Why nasal breathing is critical for nervous system health, sleep, and longevity A simple 3-step formula to transform any moment through awareness, relaxation, and energy Dan also guides us through powerful yet accessible exercises designed to increase mindfulness, release trauma from the body, and ignite the inner healer within.

Dr. Jeff Tarrant discusses his research on psychic mediums, focusing on brain activity using quantitative EEG. He highlights the involvement of the right parietal lobe, often referred to as the "God spot," in mediumship. Dr. Jeff Tarrant has studied around 20 psychic mediums and a few channelers, noting significant brainwave changes during mediumship, including increased gamma and slow waves. He also explores psychokinesis, noting improved performance when the left frontal lobe is inhibited. Dr. Tarrant emphasizes the importance of quieting the ego and achieving a flow state for effective psychic abilities. Dr. Jeff Tarrant discussed his journey into Qigong and energy healing, starting in the early 90s in Missouri. He described his initial experiences with energy healing, including sending and receiving energy, and later studies involving Pranic Healing. A small study with EEG measurements showed significant brain wave changes during healing sessions, indicating real effects beyond placebo. Dr. Tarrant emphasized the importance of relaxation in Qigong and the potential for energy to be used internally or externally, as in martial arts.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.
