In today’s show, the script is flipped—I’m the one in the hot seat, answering questions instead of asking them. And the setting couldn’t be more powerful: India—a country where ancient wellness practices are part of everyday life, yet there's an undeniable hunger for innovation and cutting-edge health strategies. This conversation, led by Sharad Baid, the Managing Director of Utkal Builders, a leading real estate company based in Bhubaneswar, India, explores the fascinating intersection between traditional healing and modern biohacking. You’ll discover what it really means to take control of your healthspan—not just adding years to your life but adding life to your years. We talk about everything from tweaking your diet for better brain function or muscle gain, to using red light therapy on the road, and even the radical experiments I’ve tried—like full-body stem cell injections and gene therapy. Whether you’re just starting to explore the world of biohacking or you’re deep in the trenches, this episode offers a dynamic, India-inspired lens into what’s possible when tradition and innovation meet.

Today, we're breaking down medical astrology's relationship to scientific and pragmatic truth and proof, and what really matters.   Here's what you'll find in this episode: The goal of the tools we use—what matters most?

Most traditions of herbal medicine across the world use the fundamental principle of antipathetic medicine in their approach to therapeutics. But in the practice of alchemical medicine—based on Paracelsianism— and in astro-herbalism, another approach is commonly used: sympathetic medicine. In this episode, we'll explore some of the principles of sympathetic medicine, how it differs from the antipathetic approach, and how we can work with it to deepen our understanding of plant to planet correspondences.   Here's an overview of what you'll learn: The key differences between sympathetic and antipathetic medicine How to think through planetary correspondences in plants and more importantly, in practice The various layers of herbal sympathy to planets such as organ affinities, energetics, and herbal actions How herbs can paradoxically embody both sympathetic AND antipathetic qualities to a singular planetary force Refining clinical application through the Triune System Warning: this is a slightly more advanced discussion relating to astro-herbalism and planetary correspondences in plants.

Pioneering Hemp in Africa: Insights from South Africa's Hemp LeadersWelcome back to the Let's Talk Hemp podcast, Volume Up! I'm your host, Morris Beagle, and today we're diving into the vibrant hemp and cannabis scene in Cape Town, South Africa. After an enriching experience at the Kenya Hemp Conference, I spent nearly three weeks in Cape Town, exploring the local industry and meeting some incredible people.Highlights from Cape TownHemporium and the Hemp HotelI had the pleasure of staying at the Hemp Hotel, the tallest hemp structure in the world, with my colleague Paul Benham from the Hemp Plastic Company. The hotel used over 60 tons of hemp in its construction, offering a unique and sustainable experience. Hemporium, a hemp retail shop located in the same building, has been a pioneer in the industry since 1996. Tony Budden, the founder, shared insights into the versatility of hemp and the importance of creating a sustainable market.Key ConversationsTony Budden, Hemporium: Tony discussed the challenges and opportunities in the hemp industry, emphasizing the need for local hemp genetics and the potential of biophilic design in creating natural living spaces.Trenton Birsch, Chiba Africa Hemp and Cannabis Training Academy: Trenton's academy is a government-approved and accredited school, providing essential training in hemp and cannabis cultivation.Natie Ferreira, Daga Pharmacy Cannabis Farms: Natty, an ornamental horticulturist and agronomist, shared his expertise in hemp and cannabis genetics, highlighting the importance of local adaptation for successful cultivation.Tanya Clarke, Invigrow: Tanya, who recently relocated from Malawi, has been a significant player in the hemp and cannabis industry. She discussed the regulatory landscape and the potential for regional markets in Africa.Regulatory InsightsSouth Africa is making strides with new regulations, including a proposed 2% THC limit, which is more lenient than the current 0.2-0.3% in Europe and the US. This change could significantly benefit local farmers and the industry as a whole.Future ProspectsThe conversations I had in Cape Town were enlightening and inspiring. The local industry is poised for growth, with a strong focus on sustainability and innovation. I look forward to spending more time in South Africa and continuing to amplify the message of hemp's potential.Sponsor AcknowledgmentA big thank you to our sponsor, Her Many Voices, a platform where grassroots activism meets indigenous wisdom to benefit all of Earth's inhabitants.

I initially interviewed today's honorary Daughter of Change, Greg Lathrop, for the Never Been Old B4 podcast. As we delved into our conversation, I realized that this intriguing subject would appeal to all of you.Greg Lathrop is licensed as a Registered Nurse. At age 15, he experienced what he thought would be the moment of his immediate death. The transpersonal, mystical state of being he experienced transformed his perspective of consciousness and guided his choices regarding his “work” in this life. Accordingly, his more than 40 years of nursing experience has included serving within various healthcare realms: acute care, critical care, emergency care, air-medical transport, hospice, and integrative healthcare. Coinciding with his nursing practice, he was invited into a Traditional Indigenous Medicine apprenticeship, following his Teacher Will Rockingbear for more than 13 years until Rockingbear's crossing. He is now recognized as a Medicine Elder in the Way of Traditional Healing. We hope that you enjoy this sneak peek of the Never Been Old B4 Podcast. Links to Check Out:Center for Conscious Living and DyingDocumentary Trailer "The Last Ecstatic Days" Never Been Old B4 WebsiteFollow Daughters of Change:Website:Facebook:InstagramLinkedInMarie's LinkedIn:Daughters of Change Podcast Producer:  Sarah StaceySarah's LinkedIn Profile

Ever been to an Ayurvedic wellness centre in Kerala, one of those tranquil resorts in a tropical setting?   They offer treatments for everything – from depression to hair loss, in a way that they claim is holistic. The effectiveness of these healing processes is difficult to gauge. But if their popularity with foreign nationals is anything to go by, people do believe that they help. According to Kerala tourism, nearly 35 per cent of the foreign tourists who visit the state are repeat visitors seeking Ayurveda treatments. About 1.2 million international tourists visited Kerala in 2019. Clearly, there is an economic opportunity here, and the government wants to ensure that India can tap into it. Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced on Wednesday that special visas would be offered to those coming to India to undergo AYUSH treatments. He was inaugurating the Global AYUSH Investment and Innovation Summit in Gujarat. This decision is meant to boost medical tourism in traditional medicine. India's medical tourism sector in 2020 was estimated to be worth 5-6 billion dollars. AYUSH visas could push that number up. Many of the factors that led to the success of medical tourism in India, from the quality of allied sectors such as hospitality to affordability, are likely to apply to medical tourism in traditional medicine too.   The industry is also well-placed to take advantage. According to a report by Research and Information System for Developing Countries, AYUSH has seen its market size grow by 17 per cent between 2014 and 2020 to reach 18.1 billion dollars. According to the report, the AYUSH industry was projected to reach 20.6 billion dollars in 2021 and 23.3 billion dollars in 2022. Special visas weren't the only measures announced either. Prime Minister Modi also said that the government would soon launch an ‘AYUSH mark' for standardisation and authentication of quality AYUSH products in the global market. As part of the initiative, farmers will be connected to better-managed supply chains for medicinal plants. And, technology will be used to vet these products before being given the standardisation mark.     Till 2019, according to the Ministry of Commerce & Industry, India's share in the global export of herbs and herbal products was assessed to be only 120 billion dollars. When the ministry refers to herbs and herbal products, AYUSH products are also included. However, there is also a serious challenge that India will have to overcome before it can become a global hub for traditional healing.   Success will depend on ensuring that traditional Indian medicine meets global standards. This is vital since such systems have often come to be associated with frauds. So, a major question remains. Will India be able to establish the credibility of these traditional systems by reducing rampant quackery?

Ecuador is a wonderland of botanical diversity and tradition, and Rocio Alarcon takes us on a plant-based journey through its jungles, people, and ceremonies. Rocio is an incredibly grounded and gifted protector of land and ancestral knowledge. With a doctorate in Ethnopharmacology, she is the founder of the IAMOE Center, a 100-hectare region of biodiversity with a dedicated team that leads research projects, educational expeditions, and experimental workshops aimed at healing and land and knowledge preservation. Rocio specializes in work with master plants, and we examine what it means to be a master plant. We explore examples such as cacao, tobacco, and ayahuasca and how each is used in special healing ceremonies, especially by curanderos, traditional healers who journey with master plants. Rocio provides fascinating detail of ceremonies with these plants and how they are woven into the fabric of indigenous people. We also discuss the environmental challenges that are facing her people and the work she is doing to protect the jungles. Some of her conservation work is centred around hummingbirds, and we talk at length about the magical healing powers of hummingbirds, their endangered habitat, and the work IAMOE is doing to bring awareness to them and preserve their territories. Rocio is a powerful storyteller and brings the listener into a world of healing that is hanging on by tendrils to survive in this modern period of scientific and economic ‘progress' that uproots all in its path. She is a beacon of hope and a staunch protector of traditional values and knowledge. If you are looking for a planetary champion to support, Rocio might soon climb to the top of your list.
