How on earth can a neck injection eliminate teeth sensitivity? Can a patient's tooth sensitivity really be linked to their occlusion? Is occlusal adjustment ever indicated for sensitivity? And what's the actual mechanism behind those cases where everything looks fine — no cracks, no significant wear, no exposed dentine — yet the patient still complains their teeth are sensitive? In this episode, Dr. Nick Yiannios shares the concept of Sympathetic Dentin Hypersensitivity (SDH), a groundbreaking way of understanding sensitivity that goes beyond the usual suspects like caries, erosion, or leakage. We dive into how the sympathetic nervous system in the pulp can drive unexplained pain, why traditional approaches often fail, and how objective tools like T-Scan and EMG can reveal what articulating paper misses. This could completely change the way you diagnose and manage those “mystery” sensitivity cases that just don't add up. https://youtu.be/a2Mg72Y_zkw Watch PDP240 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: When fitting a resin-bonded bridge (RBB), if you're unsure about the fit and cement gap, use light-bodied PVS on the intaglio surface of the wing. After setting and peeling it away, the thickness of the PVS shows you the expected cement layer. Ideally, it should be thin and even; a thicker area highlights where your gap is excessive. Key Takeaways: The T-scan technology revolutionizes occlusal analysis. Sensitive teeth can be linked to occlusion and bite adjustments. Frictional dental hypersensitivity (FDH) is a key concept in understanding sensitivity. Sympathetic responses may contribute to dental hypersensitivity. Innovative treatments include laser therapy and ozone application. Addressing root causes is essential for long-term solutions. Dentists should explore literature for new insights and techniques. Critical thinking is vital in dental practice. Advanced technology can enhance patient care and outcomes. Objective data is essential for effective occlusal adjustments. Understanding joint function is crucial for dental health. Differentiating between types of dental hypersensitivity is important. The sympathetic nervous system plays a significant role in dental pain. Educating patients about their conditions fosters better outcomes. The beaker of pain concept helps in understanding patient symptoms. Continuous learning is vital for dental professionals. Objective metrics are necessary for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

"Healing doesn't happen overnight—it's one step, one breath, one choice at a time. Your body already knows the way; you just have to listen." – MJ Renshaw In this episode of Turmeric & Tequila, host Kristen Olson (KO) sits down with MJ Renshaw—breathwork facilitator, author, podcast host, and founder of The Being Method. Breathwork educator and author MJ Renshaw joins KO to unpack the science and soul of emotional release—why crying is healthy, how suppressed emotions show up in the body, and simple ways to regulate your nervous system. We cover psychoneuroimmunology (mind–brain–immune links), sympathetic vs. parasympathetic breathwork, generational trauma, and practical steps to start listening to (and healing) your body—without needing a “perfect” routine. MJ also shares insights from her book How to Cry and a 30-day breathwork pathway for emotional clearing.

What if elevating sympathetics could actually help with pain and stress? In this episode, I speak with my podcast producer, Tony, all about the much-maligned sympathetic system. I discuss the neurology and anatomy of the sympathetic system and explain how it works in tandem with other systems to achieve the correct balance needed for movement, strength-training, and more. I outline cases where this balance isn't being met, and how raising sympathetics, even when it may seem counter-intuitive, might be the solution to problems with pain, decreased mobility, and anxiety. I go over signs that the sympathetic system might be under-performing, and give you drills and assessments to activate the sympathetic system in a targeted way to improve outcomes without raising threat and causing more issues. I also discuss the idea of intentionally raising sympathetics to actually provoke a parasympathetic response later. This episode includes discussion of vision drills, breathing techniques, using light and sound, circadian rhythms, cold temperature, acupuncture tools, vigorous workouts, stretching and more.

What if your constant stress, emotional triggers, and exhaustion aren't a mindset problem, but a sign your nervous system is stuck in survival mode?  In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore the science of nervous system reset, nervous system regulation, and how to restore the nervous system after chronic stress and trauma. Jennifer Wallace and Elisabeth Kristof unpack how the autonomic nervous system governs your reactions, why trauma is stored as patterns in the body, and how to begin the process of nervous system recovery without forcing or overwhelming yourself. You'll learn how the sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest) branches work together, why dysregulation is not a personal failure, and how practices like movement, breathwork, and interoception can help you regulate more effectively. This conversation also covers the difference between “big T” and “small T” trauma, why nervous system healing requires both individual and collective approaches, and how to build resilience so you can meet life's challenges without staying stuck in survival mode. This episode is both a science-backed education and a compassionate guide for anyone ready to experience a genuine nervous system reset.

As practitioners, how can we respond when things fall apart?Larry Robinson invites us to find refuge and stability amid chaotic and uncertain times by leaning into the core Buddhist teachings and practices. He frames our current historical moment as a “dark age” where things seem to fall apart, but reminds us that history moves in cycles and renewal always follows. Larry highlights the importance of taking refuge in the Three Jewels—the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha—and cultivating the Brahma Viharas, the four divine abodes: Loving-kindness (metta)Compassion (karuna)Sympathetic joy (mudita)Equanimity (upekkha)These qualities help create “islands of order” amid disorder, which can attract and inspire new patterns of peace and understanding. He also shares a beautiful St. Francis prayer inviting us to be instruments of peace through love, pardon, faith, hope, and light.Larry offers practical and heartfelt ways to cultivate equanimity in daily life, such as his morning walks connecting with nature, practicing gratitude by counting blessings, and embracing impermanence without resistance. He underscores the Buddhist insight that suffering awakens compassion and that compassion connects us to the community of all beings, not just the immediate Sangha. He encourages embracing uncertainty and “not knowing” as a profound spiritual practice, illustrated by the story of the Chinese farmer who responds “maybe” to life's ups and downs, reminding us that what appears good or bad is never fixed. Through poems, personal stories of grief and joy, and reflections on impermanence, Larry gently guides us to open-hearted acceptance, reminding us that even in dark times, the earth always turns toward the morning light and that hope beyond hope—true faith—is found in trusting things as they are.______________Larry Robinson has been a practicing Buddhist for 47 years, mostly in the Zen and Vipassana traditions. He is a member of the Occidental Laguna Sangha in Sebastopol, studying with Bruce Fortin in the lineage of Suzuki Roshi. A long-time environmental and social justice activist, he is a retired ecopsychologist and former mayor of Sebastopol. He serves on the board of directors of the Center for Climate Protection and the board of trustees of Meridian University. His “large and foolish project” (in the words of Rumi) is to restore the soul of the world through reawakening the oral tradition of poetry.

Rebroadcast: One of our most popular episodes (Ep 45), shared again in honor of the upcoming Fascia Research Congress.

Have you ever wondered why some clients struggle to stay present during class? Or why certain movements, even when modified, feel like “too much” for someone? You might be seeing more than just tight hips or shallow breath—you might be witnessing a nervous system response. In this episode, Katie Crane invites you into a deeper understanding of the Polyvagal Theory, a game-changing framework developed by Stephen Porges that explains how our nervous system responds to safety, threat, and connection. Katie shares how learning about the vagus nerve reshaped her approach to teaching. It's not just about alignment and muscle engagement—it's about seeing the whole person, understanding their internal state, and using movement and breath to create safety and healing.     In This Episode, You'll Learn: The three autonomic nervous system states: • Dorsal vagal (shutdown/freeze) • Sympathetic (fight/flight) • Ventral vagal (connection/safety) How these states show up in Pilates sessions—and what we can do as teachers to meet clients where they are Why language, tone, and choice matter more than we think How breath and stillness can be just as therapeutic as movement How to create a space that invites trust, empowerment, and nervous system regulation   Why It Matters: Pilates isn't just about better movement—it's about better connection. When we understand the nervous system, we realize that offering someone a sense of safety in their body is one of the most profound gifts we can give. This episode is a gentle nudge to look beyond the exercise and into the human experience—to teach from a place of compassion, curiosity, and consciousness.

Episode 143: Zachary Green & his book, Warrior Entrepreneur: Lessons From The Battlefield To The BoardroomABOUT ZACHARYZachary is someone who truly embodies the warrior spirit—on and off the battlefield. He is a U.S. Marine veteran, former firefighter, and serial entrepreneur who grew a company from the trunk of his car to over $30 million in revenue. He's also an international bestselling author, a sought-after leadership coach, and a speaker who has testified before Congress and was selected by the White House to represent the U.S. as a delegate at the Global Entrepreneurship Conference. But beyond his impressive credentials, Zachary is a lifelong student of leadership, with a deep passion for books, history, and the timeless lessons we can learn from the great leaders and battles of the past. His book, Warrior Entrepreneur – Lessons From the Battlefield to the Boardroom, explores the warrior mindset and how resilience, adaptability, and strategic thinking shape success. And now, he's working on a brand-new book that dives even deeper into historic leadership lessons—bringing to life the strategies and decision-making skills of legendary figures like Alexander the Great, Winston Churchill, and Abraham Lincoln, and showing how we can apply their insights to modern leadership challenges. Through his company, WARRIOR Enterprises, Zachary has taken this passion a step further—leading corporate teams, military units, and government agencies through immersive leadership experiences on historic battlefields.CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTSEarning your rhino skin.The power of serenity over brute strength.Leadership is timeless.The most Zen moment of Zachary's life.The power of discipline WITH compassion.The crucible of becoming a marine.The problem with staring into the abyss.What entrepreneurship is like.The drawback of not getting enough tough love.ADHD - "My disability is my superpower."Sympathetic vs. Parasympathetic SystemsFreeze, Flight, Negotiate, Fawn, Surrender.The power of transcendental meditation.The biggest kryptonite to human beings.The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Zachary is, What are the attributes you hold that make up the warrior in you?

In this podcast, Bhante Sathi explores the practice of sympathetic joy (mudita) as the ability to genuinely feel happiness for others' success by first understanding and cultivating joy within oneself, free from jealousy or comparison. True compassion and mindfulness allow us to make necessary judgments in daily life, not based on emotion or ego, but rooted in wisdom and intention. Through this balanced approach, even challenging roles like judges, teachers, or parole officers can be aligned with spiritual practice when guided by clarity, responsibility, and inner awareness.

[This is one of the finalists in the 2025 review contest, written by an ACX reader who will remain anonymous until after voting is done. I'll be posting about one of these a week for several months. When you've read them all, I'll ask you to vote for a favorite, so remember which ones you liked] “Just as we don't accept students using AI to write their essays, we will not accept districts using AI to supplant the critical role of teachers.” — Arthur Steinberg, American Federation of Teachers‑PA, reacting to Alpha's cyber‑charter bid, January 2025 In January 2025, the charter school application of “Unbound Academy”, a subsidiary of “2 Hour Learning, Inc”, lit up the education press: two hours of “AI‑powered” academics, 2.6x learning velocity, and zero teachers. Sympathetic reporters repeated the slogans; union leaders reached for pitchforks; Reddit muttered “another rich‑kid scam.” More sophisticated critics dismissed the pitch as “selective data from expensive private schools”. But there is nowhere on the internet that provides a detailed, non-partisan, description of what the “2 hour learning” program actually is, let alone an objective third party analysis to back up its claims. 2-Hour Learning's flagship school is the “Alpha School” in Austin Texas. The Alpha homepage makes three claims: Love School Learn 2X in two-hours per day Learn Life Skills Only the second claim seems to be controversial, which may be exactly why that is the claim the Alpha PR team focuses on. That PR campaign makes three more sub-claims on what the two-hour, 2x learning really means: “Learn 2.6X faster.” (on average) “Only two hours of academics per day.” “Powered by AI (not teachers).” If all of this makes your inner Bayesian flinch, you're in good company. After twenty‑odd years of watching shiny education fixes wobble and crash—KIPP, AltSchool, Summit Learning, One-laptop-per-child, No child left behind, MOOCs, Khan‑for‑Everything—you should be skeptical. Either Alpha is (a) another program for the affluent propped up by selection effects, or (b) a clever way to turn children into joyless speed‑reading calculators. Those were, more or less, the two critical camps that emerged when Alpha's parent company was approved to launch the tuition‑free Arizona charter school this past January. Unfortunately, the public evidence base on whether this is “real” is thin in both directions. Alpha's own material is glossy and elliptical; mainstream coverage either repeats Alpha's talking points, or attacks the premise that kids should even be allowed to learn faster than their peers. Until Raj Chetty installs himself in the hallway with a clipboard counting MAP percentiles it is hard to get real information on what exactly Alpha is doing, whether it is actually working beyond selection effects, and if there is anyway it could scale in a way that all the other education initiatives seemed to fail to do. I first heard about Alpha in May 2024, and in the absence of randomized‑controlled clarity, I did what any moderately obsessive parent with three elementary-aged kids and an itch for data would do: I moved the family across the country to Austin for a year and ran the experiment myself (unfortunately, despite trying my best we never managed to have identical twins, so I stopped short of running a proper control group. My wife was less disappointed than I was). Since last autumn I've collected the sort of on‑the‑ground detail that doesn't surface in press releases, or is available anywhere online: long chats with founders, curriculum leads, “guides” (not teachers), Brazilian Zoom coaches, sceptical parents, ecstatic parents, and the kids who live inside the Alpha dashboard – including my own. I hope this seven-part review can help share what the program actually is and that this review is more open minded than the critics, but is something that would never get past an Alpha public relations gatekeeper: https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/your-review-alpha-school

In this episode I explain how your vagus nerve—an extensive neural pathway linking your brain and body in both directions—powerfully regulates your mood, digestion, alertness and even certain food cravings, and I explain how you can activate certain vagus nerve pathways to improve your heart rate variability (HRV), a key marker of health and longevity. I also explain how to control vagal pathways to enhance your focus and alertness to improve learning and neuroplasticity. And I explain how your vagus nerve controls levels of serotonin in both your gut and brain, impacting your mood and emotional resilience and how to keep that pathway robust.

Sympathetic resonance is an acoustic phenomenon in which the vibrations in one object produce vibrations in another. For instance, if a chord is played on a piano, the harmonic vibrations can be transferred to another piano nearby. For this to occur, both pianos must be tuned correctly so that the resonant frequency of one matches the resonant frequency of the other. In a spiritual sense, when the word of God is spoken, it should resonate through the church and touch each of us. Similar to the physical phenomenon, for this to occur, we must be in tune with God for His word to resonate with us. How do we get out of tune with God? One way is just life. Life has a way of pilfering little things from us. Over time, these little things add up to be a significant loss. The disappointments and disillusionments rob us of our happiness and joy. We become content with just getting by or making do with what we have left. Life has stolen things from us. We must say, "Give it back!" Let us be in tune with God so that every cord struck will resonate with us.

This week, Dr. Prather talks about the importance of the Autonomic Nervous System to our health and how to achieve a proper balance between the Parasympathetic and Sympathetic Nervous Systems.   In this episode, you'll learn:—How Dr. Prather only finds about 10-15% of patients have a properly-balanced Autonomic Nervous System.  And how "basically 100% of patients" were imbalanced during COVID, a trend which has continued. —Why the proper balance is 80% of our time should be in the Parasympathetic (Rest and Digest) mode and 20% of the time in the Sympathetic (Fight or Flight) mode. —The "freeze" mechanism that Dr. Prather has seen in patients where they get so stressed that they can't even function. —Why Dr. Prather says an imbalance in the Autonomic Nervous System can kick off "all" health issues, symptoms, and diseases.  And the Autonomic Nervous System test at Holistic Integration that measures the function of the Vagus Nerve and the balance of the spinal cord between the Parasympathetic and Sympathetic systems. —The test Dr. Prather does on the Levator Scapulae to determine a patient's stress levels. —The deep-breathing and eye exercises which help regulate the Vagus Nerve.  And the benefits of humming, gargling, cold showers, and exercise for your Vagus Nerve. —The Atlas Orthogonal Chiropractic Adjustment that is a specialty at Holistic Integration which Dr. Prather says is "the most important thing you can do for your health" and is the most important treatment to balance out the Autonomic Nervous System.—How Acupuncture can "immediately" decrease the Cortisol stress hormone and increase the "feel good" Oxytocin hormone.—The symptoms of Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).  And why Dr. Prather says the Atlas "is the biggest thing we can do to improve that" and that "you are never going to be able to fix POTS without the Atlas being set into its proper position".—Plus, we're joined by Angie Nuttle of the VIP Center for Businesswomen to talk about their upcoming "VIP Week" where our own Lisa Prather will be speaking.  Learn more about VIP Week at https://www.vipcenter.works/vipweek .http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com

In this episode of Homebody, Anna delves into the Polyvagal Theory, explaining the three primary states of the autonomic nervous system: dorsal vagal shutdown, sympathetic activation, and ventral vagal safety. She emphasizes the importance of understanding these states and how to navigate them effectively, especially during trauma healing. Anna provides practical tools for transitioning between these states and building resilience, encouraging listeners to approach their healing journey with patience and self-compassion. takeaways The Polyvagal Theory outlines three primary states of the autonomic nervous system. Dorsal vagal shutdown is a state of collapse and disconnection. Sympathetic activation is the fight or flight response. Ventral vagal state is where we feel safe and connected. Healing often involves uncomfortable middle steps. Understanding transitions helps avoid shame around in-between states. Each state is a response to how safe our nervous system feels. Gentle movements can help transition from dorsal vagal to sympathetic. Building resilience involves daily routines of safety and connection. Noticing glimmers can enhance our sense of joy and safety.
