In this episode, we go deep into the real reason emotional eating keeps showing up in your life and what you can do about it.If you've ever wondered why you repeat the same patterns, self-sabotage after progress, or feel stuck in a loop of guilt, shame, and overeating, this episode brings clarity.I'm sharing the self-healing steps that transformed my own life after decades of chronic yo-yo dieting and emotional pain. These are the same tools I teach inside the Guild and my coaching programs. When you start applying them, the urge to emotionally eat begins to lose its power and the journey of becoming thin becomes possible in a new way.We're talking about:• Understanding emotional eating as a symptom, not a failure• Why accepting your past frees your future• The role of self-ownership in stopping repeated patterns• How self-forgiveness breaks the emotional cycle that keeps you stuck• What happens when you put your goals and desires first• How investing in yourself changes your relationship with your mind• Why creating boundaries stops others from taking advantage of you• The moment your origin story begins and the hero steps forwardThis isn't about willpower or perfection. This is about learning to work with your emotions, reconnecting with who you are, and creating the internal shifts that make lasting weight loss possible.Because when you heal yourself, your relationship with food changes. Your relationship with your body changes. Your relationship with your entire life changes.If that's what you want, you're in the right place.
Most people overlook emotions that don't feel "logical," but those are often the ones quietly affecting your health, energy, and overall wellbeing. In this eye-opening live session, Brandy works with a volunteer whose unexplored guilt and long-held emotional responsibility instantly change her physical pain—first rising, then dropping in real time—as her subconscious patterns surface. You'll learn why certain emotions can influence the body even when your logical mind disagrees… how hidden guilt or grief can show up as physical symptoms… and how to begin shifting these patterns so you can create more emotional balance, clarity, and healing in your life. This episode is an important listen for anyone interested in mind-body healing, emotional triggers, stress-related symptoms, or understanding the deeper emotional patterns that impact health. In This Episode, Brandy Discusses: The illogical emotions almost everyone overlooks — and how they can impact your health Why your logical mind can't always see what your subconscious is doing How guilt, responsibility, or grief can quietly show up as physical symptoms Why linking hardship, problems, or crisis with "gift" or "blessing" can backfire — including how pride in hardship or believing self-sacrifice makes you "good" can create hidden emotional conflicts A real example of pain changing instantly as deeper emotions come to the surface How to start breaking these counterintuitive patterns to support healing and empowerment.

Today, Michael welcomes Garry Lineham, co-founder of Human Garage, a global movement empowering people to restore health and alignment through self-directed healing. A former data encryption expert, Garry transitioned from designing secure communication systems to decoding the body's own network of fascia, discovering parallels between digital systems and human biomechanics. His groundbreaking approach, Fascial Maneuvers, integrates breath, movement, and intention to release tension, regulate the nervous system, and realign the body. With over 200,000 realignment sessions worldwide and more than 40 million practitioners globally, Garry's work bridges technology, AI, and human potential, positioning the body as the most advanced self-healing system on the planet. Join Michael and Garry for the 28-Day Global Reset! Get the details here: https://humangarage.net/agape. Conversation highlights include: * A clear upgrade from the "animal model" of the body to fascia as a structural + signaling network for real-world healing * How Garry's path—from data encryption to Human Garage—led to decoding the body like a network * The cost of chasing symptoms (even after $2.5M spent) vs. changing the model and methods * Why fascia behaves like a crystalline matrix that organizes posture, breath, and nervous-system coherence * Pain as guidance (not the enemy) and why numbing creates a two-year relapse loop * A daily fascia-maneuver sequence that compounds results and returns sovereignty over health * "Issues in the tissues": how stored emotions/trauma unwind over 18–24 months, unlocking latent capacities * The role of minerals & hydration in signal quality (RO water concerns, 102-mineral approach, tissue hydration) * The free 15-Minute Stress Reset (rib/diaphragm opening) that can release ~75% stress quickly Next, Michael leads a guided meditation to "tune the broadcast" of your day.

It's the finale of our Wheel of the Year series, we're diving into Mabon aka pagan Friendsgiving and the autumn equinox. We chat about why this sabbat feels like a second, decolonized Thanksgiving: feasting, gratitude, gathering with our people, but without the gross history. We riff on root veggies, delicata squash, Tofurky loyalty, molasses cookies, and apple crisps as actual rituals, not just vibes.We also explore how Mabon is all about balance, slowing down, and abundance that sticks from brown sugar and molasses magic to running in crisp air as moving meditation. Then we get delightfully nerdy about pentacles in the apple core, Persephone's pomegranate seeds, and how pomegranate juice can stand in for blood in spell work.Join our Patreon for bonus episodes, magical downloads, and unhinged side quests: https://www.patreon.com/demystifymagicPre-order Molly's book Mundane Magic A Lazy Witch's Guide to Hacking Your Brain, Building a Daily Practice, and Getting Stuff DonePreorder Mundane Magic & Join the Virtual Book Tour: Celebrate the release of Molly's new book with an exclusive online event on Feb 21, 12 PM EST.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and endometriosis touch far more than the reproductive system—they influence metabolism, mood, inflammation, digestion, sleep, and the way women feel in their bodies every day. In this episode of The Science of Self-Healing, we explore these conditions through a lens that views the body as a connected, intelligent system rather than a collection of separate parts. Learn how PCOS and endometriosis affect the whole body, why insulin, inflammation, and estrogen pathways matter, and which evidence-supported supplements may help. You'll also see how stress, sleep, nutrition, movement, pelvic-floor therapy, and acupuncture support hormonal balance, along with the shared patterns that make both conditions responsive to a multi-therapeutic approach. If you've ever wondered why symptoms feel so widespread—or why standard treatments sometimes fall short—this episode offers clarity, encouragement, and a grounded view of what whole-body healing can look like.
In this solo episode of Money & Meaning, Jeff Bernier explores how markets have a built-in ability to self-correct, a concept informed by his conversations with longtime colleague Larry Swedroe. Jeff ties together research from Joe Wiggins and Jason Zweig to explain how behavior, concentration risk, and market history reveal important lessons for investors. He also revisits the importance of broad diversification and TandemGrowth's behavioral “bucket approach” for supporting client confidence in uncertain times. Topics covered: Behavioral traps investors face in fast-paced market environments Joe Wiggins' perspective on making slow, consistent, and infrequent decisions Larry Swedroe's concept of the self-healing mechanism of markets How falling valuations increase expected future returns Historical periods when stocks underperformed and rebounded strongly Examples of self-healing in asset classes like value stocks, credit, private credit, and reinsurance Jason Zweig's analysis of AI-driven capital spending by big tech firms The dangers of concentration risk—including going to all cash Benefits of broad diversification across public and private markets How the “bucket approach” helps reduce panic and support long-term strategy Useful Links: Jeff Bernier on LinkedIn TandemGrowth Financial Advisors Disclosures: This podcast is for informational purposes only and should not be considered tax or legal advice.

A woman came to me absolutely consumed by a fear she couldn't shake — a fear that something terrible was going to happen to her. Maybe a health issue. Maybe an illness. Maybe dying. The fear followed her everywhere… and the feeling would not leave her. And she had no idea why. When we uncovered what her subconscious mind had secretly linked together, everything finally clicked. And it was something she never would have guessed in a million years. In today's episode, I'm sharing the surprising emotional miswiring that was driving her fear — and how things we don't think twice about, like emergency or crisis planning or even calling a past health issue a "gift," can accidentally program the mind in the wrong direction. These innocent moments can create subconscious links that trigger fear, worry, stress, or even a silent expectation of the very thing you're trying to prevent. And with the holidays coming up, this is actually a beautiful reminder: now is a really good time to think about only positive gifts — the ones that uplift you, expand your energy, and genuinely support the future you want to create. This is more common than many people realize and shows up in a variety of different ways. As another example, in recent podcast episodes, I've worked with people who feel guilt about moving forward, guilt about feeling happy, or even guilt about enjoying life when others can't. In these situations, the mind links negative emotions (like guilt) to positive experiences (such as happiness, success, healing, fun, or progress). This too can be incredibly impactful — because when positive things are associated with guilt, the subconscious can begin linking happiness with illness, problems, hardship, stress, worry, or fear. If you've ever: • felt stuck in a fear that doesn't make sense • tried to think positive but your mind kept pulling you backward • found yourself worrying about your health or future "for no reason" • sensed your mind was moving in the wrong direction and you couldn't stop it …then this episode is going to open your eyes in the most powerful way. You'll learn exactly how these miswired emotional links form — and how to begin un-linking and rewiring them so your mind finally starts working with you instead of against you. If you're ready to understand your subconscious like never before… and break free from fear at the deepest level… this episode is for you.

In this episode of Homeopathy 247, host Mary Greensmith welcomes Ekta Kaur Ross to explore the complex world of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and how homoeopathy can offer real, lasting relief. Ekta begins by sharing her own journey with IBS in her early twenties — a time filled with discomfort, endless medical tests, and no clear answers. Despite endoscopies, colonoscopies, and dietary changes, she was told she would have to "live with it for life." From Frustration to Healing Feeling disheartened, Ekta turned to homoeopathy. Unlike conventional medicine, which focuses on suppressing symptoms, homoeopathy looks at the whole person — physical, emotional, and mental. She explains how her IBS symptoms improved once she addressed not only her diet but also her emotional stress and internal pressure. Homoeopathy helped her identify that the root cause of her digestive issues wasn't just what she ate, but how she felt — particularly stress, anxiety, and self-expectation. Once her emotional wellbeing improved, her gut followed suit. Mind–Gut Connection Ekta and Mary discuss how deeply emotions are linked to digestion. Stress, guilt, or anxiety can easily manifest as bloating, cramps, or irregular bowels. Ekta encourages listeners who self-prescribe to explore anxiety-related remedies first, as calming the mind often eases the gut. The Homeopathic Approach to IBS Homoeopathy works by stimulating the body's natural ability to heal. Ekta describes a two-step process: Acute relief – using remedies for immediate symptoms such as diarrhoea, constipation, or bloating. Constitutional treatment – working with a homeopath to address underlying emotional and physical imbalances for long-term wellness. Common Remedies for IBS Ekta shares some of her go-to remedies: Nux Vomica – for irritability, indigestion, and alternating constipation and diarrhoea. Aloe Socotrina – for sudden urgency and weakness after bowel movements. Bryonia – for dryness, sluggish bowels, and irritability. Lycopodium – for bloating and digestive gas. Each case is unique, she reminds us, so working with a professional homeopath ensures a tailored plan for lasting results. Building Resilience through Constitutional Care Ekta highlights that IBS often stems from emotional patterns formed early in life — such as pressure to perform or repressed frustration. Constitutional prescribing looks at the whole story, helping clients release emotional tension and restore physical balance. Homoeopathy doesn't change who you are, she says — it simply "softens the sharp edges" so you can feel calm, resilient, and in control.

Stress isn't just "in your head"—it's written in your biology.

Most importantly, you'll learn how safety, rest, connection, and mindful practices can literally rewire your physiology.

After decades in microbiology and functional medicine, I've watched the field drift toward complexity and noise, often replacing pills with powders, not purpose. A recent conversation with a longtime friend confirmed what I'd been intuitively feeling for years: even our so-called “holistic” approaches can keep us sick.More testing, stricter diets, and endless “shoulds” can disconnect us from our own intuition. The good news is, there is something that drives lasting change. Because sometimes the best “treatment” isn't another supplement at all. Your body already knows what it needs, you just have to listen.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[03:47] Why functional and integrative medicine can unintentionally harm more than help[06:12] What happens when health advice turns into noise and “shoulds” that disconnect you from your body[09:34] How one practitioner's trip to Europe shattered my ideas of what “healthy” really means[12:56] The surprising reason some “unhealthy” people still thrive while the wellness-obsessed don't[15:43] Why no single diet or protocol can work for everyone, and what to do instead[18:27] How genetic and biochemical individuality change what balance looks like for you[19:55] The real foundation of healing hidden beneath supplements and lab results[21:42] When functional medicine truly shines, and when it crosses into overcomplication[22:58] Why honoring your own intuition is the most powerful medicine you haveFind More From Dr. Stephanie Davis:Dr. Stephanie Davis | WebsiteQuantum Rx | InstagramQuantum Rx | Skool

In this episode, Brandy Gillmore helps a mother release parenting hurt and frustration, transform family dynamics, and understand how emotional patterns from parenting can be linked to physical pain. In today's powerful session, Brandy works with a beautiful volunteer named Jess — a very loving and devoted mother whose heart shines through. Jess loves her children deeply, yet like so many caring moms, she's been carrying the weight of perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, and the pressure to keep everyone's world running smoothly. When physical pain shows up, Brandy helps her uncover the emotional messages behind the symptoms. What follows is a heartfelt, eye-opening transformation in parenting, partnership, and healing long-standing family dynamics. Together, they explore: ✨ Why the body sends pain as a "check-engine-light" during emotional overload ✨ How childhood patterns of being controlled resurface in adult relationships and parenting ✨ The energetic difference between controlling your children vs. empowering them ✨ How to shift household dynamics without getting frustrated ✨ Why accountability (not pressure) helps kids grow confident and independent ✨ How frustration toward a partner can show up as physical symptoms This episode shows how quickly mind-body healing can happen when we shift the emotional patterns underneath stress, overwhelm, and physical symptoms. Jess's transformation is tender, relatable, and filled with insight — and her deep love for her family radiates through every moment. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, misunderstood, or responsible for making everything work, this episode will speak to your heart and open your mind to a new level of emotional freedom. You'll walk away with profound insights about healing, parenting, relationships, and the transformative power of mastering your mind and energy — for yourself and for the people you love most.

When your healing work starts making you feel worse—or you feel stuck, or your health issues seem to increase instead of decrease—it's not that you can't do it. It's often a sign that you need to change your approach. In this live coaching session, Brandy guides Maya, a tender-hearted performer navigating years of trauma, fear, acne, hyperpigmentation, and a constant undercurrent of panic. Together they uncover a simple but profound reframe: stop trying to "hug the lion." With compassion and clear boundaries, Maya's energy shifts from fear and self-judgment to relief, calm, and possibility—right in the moment. You'll discover how working with the mind differently (not just looking/identifying more trauma) can ease inflammation, soften explosive anger, and open the door to real, visible change. Brandy also shares why telling your trauma story on repeat keeps it alive—and how to choose a future-focused story that your mind and body can truly follow. You'll learn: A loving "lion" metaphor to end the panic/anger cycle Why chasing every trauma can accidentally make symptoms louder A simple way to release guilt that never belonged to you How to find compassion while keeping healthy boundaries A practical path to step into your next-level identity—onstage or off If you've ever asked yourself—or ever wondered—"Why is it so hard to let go of trauma?" or "Why do I still feel stuck after doing so much healing work?" or "Why does my body keep holding on to pain even when I've done the inner work?"—this episode will help you understand why that happens and how to finally shift it for good. This episode is a breath of fresh air—equal parts practical and mind-expanding. Press play to feel the shift. Do you want to see proof of the power of the mind in a medical journal?

What if your body's “symptoms” aren't problems to fix… but messages you've been ignoring?What if your fatigue, bloating, or brain fog were the clues to your deepest healing?This conversation will change the way you think about health — forever. Functional Medicine trailblazer Andrea Nakayama reveals how to decode your body's signals, uncover hidden root causes, and reclaim your energy through science and self-awareness. We unpack:
Some beliefs can feel deeply spiritual, humble, or even noble…but beneath the surface, they may be quietly limiting your ability to heal, connect, and thrive. In this empowering IQ episode of Heal Yourself, Change Your Life, Brandy Gillmore explores three common subconscious patterns that often sneak in during spiritual growth—patterns that may seem harmless or even "good," yet can create emotional resistance that blocks love, healing, and abundance. Brandy shares how: Spiritual righteousness can create emotional separation and prevent true heart connection in relationships. The belief that "money is unspiritual" can sabotage your financial energy and sense of worth. Fear of being egoic may cause you to reject healthy self-love, joy, and confidence. These energetic misalignments can show up in your emotions, relationships, health, and affect your abundance. Through her powerful insights, Brandy helps you recognize these spiritual "blind spots." As you listen, you may begin to see how even small shifts in awareness can open space for creating real change and inviting in more love, ease, and healing.

People always ask, "What am I overlooking when it comes to healing?" And if it could be answered with one specific thing, it would be this: the key is working with the mind in a radically different way. The traditional ways that you've heard about working with the mind (the typical approaches people use) - they simply don't work with healing. There are profound distinctions and differences that really need to be addressed at a deeper level to get results. One of the things Brandy absolutely loves about this episode is the awareness it brings. You can see so clearly that it's not just about trauma healing or healing the obvious wounds. It's not just emotional healing, "belief", or the placebo effect. This episode illustrates this beautifully. Creating that genuine mind-body connection, achieving true mind-body healing, extends far beyond all of that and requires a completely different, more empowering way of working with the mind. The insights shared are truly transformative. Throughout this episode, Brandy also explores the hidden patterns of self-sacrifice, those feelings of being stuck that can keep us from our healing breakthroughs, and the beautiful importance of establishing new neural pathways that support change and lasting healing. There's so much heart and profound wisdom woven throughout this episode…insights that can truly shift everything. So come join Brandy as she lovingly guides you through these life-changing insights and helps you discover what real, lasting healing truly looks like. This is an episode you won't want to miss.

What if one simple shift could open your heart to real self-love and self-healing? Self-love sounds so simple, right? However, if you've ever tried it before, or if you've struggled in this area, it might not always feel that way. So often, people work on self-love for years and still feel stuck. What most don't realize is that there are actually specific things that can end up backfiring and attracting more negativity instead of positivity (even when we have the best intentions). In today's quick IQ episode, Brandy shares a simple yet powerful shift that can make all the difference… helping you open up to your next level of self-love, self-kindness, and self-support, so you can truly experience the incredible life you deserve. Come join us! This short yet powerful episode offers a beautiful reminder that sometimes, one simple shift can open the door to a whole new level of love and transformation.
