Dr. Fishman, whose path veered from a recording studio to significant contributions in pain research, joins us to share the intriguing twists that led him from an interest in communication to a profound fascination with endorphins and pain management. With pivotal moments like a news story on acupuncture in China and the guidance of a mentor, Dr. Fishman's story serves as a testament to the power of curiosity and perseverance in transforming one's career and impact. Our conversation progresses into the vital link between lifestyle choices and chronic pain management. With more than three decades of experience, we explore how holistic approaches, including diet and mental wellness, can drastically improve quality of life and mitigate chronic conditions. By spotlighting the creation of a wellness education office, we underscore the shift from reactive healthcare towards preventive strategies, inspired by the dedication and support of advocates like Jacquelyn Anderson. This episode challenges listeners to rethink their health narratives and embrace lifestyle changes as powerful tools for longevity and vitality. Navigating the overwhelming abundance of health information is no easy task, yet finding credible sources is more important than ever. We delve into the biases present even in reputable institutions like UC Berkeley and the Mayo Clinic while emphasizing the empirical insights offered by the Blue Zones about diet, lifestyle, and community connection. Our discussion advocates for critical evaluation of health advice, warning against an overreliance on supplements, and urging listeners to prioritize sustainable habits over fleeting solutions.

A new state law paves the way for salary increases for certain city councils - the first adjustment in four decades. Also, PG&E ratepayers experience another increase to their utility bills. Finally, realistic wellness tips for the new year. City Council Salary Caps A new year means new laws taking effect in California, including one that paves the way for salary increases for certain city councils - the first adjustment in four decades. CapRadio's Sacramento Government Reporter Kristin Lam breaks down the provisions of the law, Senate Bill 329, and also provides an update on recent important developments within Sacramento's governing body, including calls for the resignation of councilmember Sean Loloee after his federal indictment. PG&E Rate Hikes (Again) This month brings a new rate increase for PG&E customers, amounting to an average of $33 a month to utility bills. The utility giant says it needs the money to pay for undergrounding lines in wildfire-prone areas, among other safety improvements. However, PG&E is already requesting an additional rate hike, on top of the already-approved increase. Mark Toney is the Executive Director of TURN (The Utility Reform Network) and Meredith Fowlie is a Professor of Economics at UC Berkeley, and the Faculty Director at the Energy Institute at Haas. They join us to discuss why the utility giant is asking for more money again, and the impact it will have on customers.

And health can mean a lot of things: from committing more time to fitness, prioritizing mental health, a work-life-balance, eating better, reducing stress, and taking up a new hobby or pastime. The list is varied, and often they relate to each other. We're going to focus on incorporating healthy habits that can meet different lifestyles and abilities.

Skyler Hanka is the Associate Director of Culinary Health at the UC Davis Office of Wellness Education.

In this episode of Beyond the Pills, host Josh Rimany invites Jason Bosley-Smith, a clinical nutrition and integrative health expert, to discuss the significance of clinical nutrition in achieving overall wellness. As a pharmacist, Jason emphasizes the importance of prescribing drugs only when necessary and prioritizing clinical nutrition to address nutrient depletion and general wellness before targeting specific disease states. He has developed a dietary supplement specialist program aimed at educating wellness advocates, health coaches, and pharmacy professionals on evidence-led and science-based approaches to dietary supplements and nutraceuticals. Jason highlights the value of seeking guidance from licensed healthcare providers, including pharmacists, for health-related concerns, including supplements. He recognizes the need for diversification in pharmacy due to reimbursement challenges and stresses the integration of new approaches to achieve holistic wellness rather than solely treating symptoms. Jason believes that addressing fundamental cellular and biological dysfunction is crucial for preventing the progression to disease along the wellness spectrum.Chapters:00:00:00 - The Vital Role of Clinical Nutrition in Pharmacy Practice00:03:33 - Going Beyond Medications: Harnessing the Power of Nutraceuticals and Supplementation for Holistic Wellness00:05:33 - Shifting from Illness to Wellness: Embracing a Comprehensive Approach in Pharmacy00:06:51 - Empowering Patients Towards Wellness: Perspectives from a Community Pharmacist00:12:10 - Balancing Competence and Confidence: Why Patients Trust Licensed Professionals for Nutrition Guidance00:16:13 - Expanding Pharmacy Services: Integrating Nutritional Supplements for Enhanced Patient Care00:21:56 - Advancing Functional Medicine Education for Pharmacy Staff and Patient Benefit00:25:07 - From Confusion to Clarity: How Clinical Nutrition Education Transforms Pharmacy Practice00:27:50 - Elevate Your Pharmacy Business: Free Toolkits and Educational Resources Available00:32:02 - Learn and Earn: A Program that Rewards Pharmacists' Investment in Education00:33:52 - Revolutionizing Pharmacy Care: Empowering Teams for a Stronger Wellness FocusLinks And Resources:WebsiteJason Bosley-Smith on LinkedInDilworth Wellness CenterJosh Rimany on TwitterJosh Rimany on LinkedInJosh Rimany on FacebookThanks so much for joining us this week.

I wonder if you have ever given this a thought. Have you ever thought about the idea of self-protection? We have the capacity to protect ourselves if we choose, once we know it is possible. Often times, due to our upbringing, we may not have been modeled self-protection. We may not have been offered protection from our caregivers, and they may not have demonstrated what it would look like to protect themselves. This leads to all manner of abusive and reckless behavior, on a small or grand scale. But if we consider that maybe our only job is to fully and completely protect ourselves: physically, energetically, and in all ways possible, we can greatly improve our experience of life and even create a more beautiful world for each other. You can find me at www.juliabernbaum.com to learn about Life Coaching, Yoga, Tarot, Astrology & Wellness Education to support you in more fully protecting yourself. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/julia359/support

Alison Ash PhD is a sex and intimacy coach, educator, and creator of many sex positive workshops including her upcoming, very popular Sexual and Emotional Intimacy Skills Mastercourse. This dialogue was stunningly rich and informative for both of us. We freely converse about sex positivity and how consent skills make it possible to skillfully and joyfully give and receive pleasure, flirt and seduce, have more intimacy, and better understand monogamous and non-monogamous relationships. We also discuss how the lingering pain and shame from sexual trauma impedes healthy sexuality and what systemic healing and resolution of sexual trauma entails. Alison clearly explicates the difference between pornography and erotica, and the deleterious effects of widespread porn use by teens, adults and couples. This episode is a romp through a diverse landscape of contexts and practices in which sex positivity is being experienced and enjoyed. Alison Ash PhD is a sex and intimacy coach, educator and creator of many sex positive workshops including her upcoming Masterclass.

With training from the Harvard Mind/Body Medical Institute and over 25 years of clinical mental health and mind/body expertise, Heather Lee is truly passionate about guiding people into connection with their inner wisdom to promote health, healing, and hopefulness. In addition to being certified in psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy and skilled as a behavior change specialist, she is the past Director of Wellness Education at The University of Virginia Medical Center, is on the advisory board of Silo Wellness, and runs her company Medicine Women Retreats.As a psychedelic psychotherapist, speaker, consultant, and transformational travel facilitator, Heather has dedicated her career to helping people learn how to skillfully navigate stress, anxiety, challenging life transitions, and relationships. One of Heather's many areas of expertise is woman's health, and her Medicine Woman Retreats are the first psilocybin retreats designed exclusively for women; offering exclusive nature immersion and plant medicine experiences around the world. Other signature topics are psychedelics for self-care, psilocybin for eco-anxiety, and psilocybin in cancer care- something she has first-hand experience with.

Today, there are many complicated pediatric issues that are often hard to discuss in an office setting.

Learn or review the key takeaways of Burnout by Emily Nagoski PhD and Amelia Nagoski DMA in minutes: https://go.getstoryshots.com/o2Xo (https://go.getstoryshots.com/o2Xo) Life gets busy. Has https://geni.us/burnout-free-audiobook (Burnout) been gathering dust on your bookshelf? Instead, pick up the key ideas now. We're scratching the surface here. If you don't already have the book, order it https://geni.us/burnout-book (here) or get thehttps://geni.us/burnout-free-audiobook ( audiobook for free) on Amazon to learn the juicy details. Emily Nagoski's Perspectivehttps://geni.us/emily-nagoski (Emily Nagoski) began her career as a sex educator in 1995 when she became a peer health educator at the University of Delaware. She was trained to teach her fellow undergraduates about stress and physical activity. She went to Indiana University for a M.S. in Counseling Psychology, completing clinical internships at the Kinsey Institute Sexual Health Clinic and the IU GLBT Student Support Services Office. Nagoski continued on to earn a Ph.D. in Health Behavior with a concentration in human sexuality.  For eight years, she worked as a lecturer and Director of Wellness Education at Smith College, before transitioning to full-time writing and speaking. She now travels all over, training professionals and teaching college students. Introduction https://geni.us/burnout-free-audiobook (Burnout) aims to explain the primary causes of one of the worst health crises in the modern world: emotional exhaustion. The authors argue that stressors are part of life, but most of us struggle to break a stress cycle. Staying within a state of stress for long periods without breaking it up with exercise, social connections and rest will lead to overexhaustion. Burnout aims to help readers understand which stressors can be controlled and how you can go about controlling them. StoryShot #1: Try to Close the Stress CycleStress is a neurological and physiological response that is generally associated with threat. The purpose of these responses is to help you run away from these threats. This is why the first hormone released during threatening situations is epinephrine, which pushes blood into the muscles. This blood movement leads to a higher blood pressure and faster heart rate. To help preserve energy, the body chooses to slow digestion and reproduction. The issue with this is that it is easy to get stuck in the emotion of stress, which Nagoski calls the stress cycle. If the emotion of stress takes over your life, then your body will struggle to deal with these constant stress responses. Your blood pressure will remain high, leaving you at risk of heart disease. Your body will also heal slower, as your immune and digestive systems will be constantly slow. All of these signs point to our need to close the stress cycle. One effective way of closing your stress cycle is exercising. Moderate physical activity for 20 to 60 minutes will help shift your mood and tackle your body's stress response. This is because, after exercising, your muscles relax and you feel the shift from breathing heavily to taking deep and slower breaths. This should provide you with an emotional release. An alternative to physical exercise would be creatively expressing yourself. This might be in the form of painting, singing, playing an instrument, or sculpting. These expressions can be complemented by completing them with other people. Positive social interactions, especially those that suggest a return to safety (e.g. hugs and laughter), will help you close your stress cycle.     StoryShot #2: Fight Stress by Building Your Resilience To fight stress you have to start developing resilience and persistence. One of the most effective ways of doing so is knowing what you want and having your life aligned with these wants. That said, you must also align your life with something bigger than yourself. Meaning is the best antidote to...

At Risk Youth – Who are they really? William’s Story Join me, David Magee, Michael Julian, and Katy Bray for an open and honest round table discussion connected in 3 parts of the country and a variety of perspectives. This topic about the dangers of substance abuse is SO big it was difficult for me personally to start facilitating the conversation. I awkwardly just looked up at this mountain and took the first shaky step and the rest of the conversation just flowed with these brave, candid and beautiful individuals. This episode is intended to brainstorm by sharing personal issues and stories. I want to be very clear; this is NOT a platform for blame, shame or finger pointing. This is intended to be a safe place to share openly in order to problem solve. When I stumbled across a newspaper article spreading through my social media circles written by a fellow college classmate, it felt like a force had taken ahold of me and shook me to my core. I knew this force would not let me go until I contacted the author, David Magee, to ask if we could discuss his deeply personal story that was also so universal and so multi-faceted. It only took reading the first few lines of the article to make me feel like I could not breathe. His article was intended to warn university students of the dangers of binge and risky behavior and to let them know it does not have to be a right of passage when you enter college. He and his family made the brave decision to share their son’s story of an accidental fatal overdose in hopes it would resonate and help others. What he did with this story/article was bust down the door of shame and free everyone that was locked behind it to share their own stories and to discuss topics normally considered taboo or “dirty laundry”. Free people to breathe….I am not alone…free people to make their OWN decisions…free people of peer pressure….free students to care about and help their peers…free us all to dump all of our, now uncorded, shame, crap and dirty laundry out in the open. We are all now free to discuss and sort through all this old uncomfortable stuff together and finally use it to problem solve. Free to come together as a community to create some solutions to foster healing and brainstorm about prevention. William Magee was a 2012 Ole Miss graduate who was in the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College and the Croft Institute for International Studies. William was remembered by everyone as the young man with the beautiful smile; kind, sweet, and popular – he seemed to have it all. He lettered in track and was named to the SEC academic honor roll. The 400 hurdles are considered by many to be one of the most difficult in sports, and William had the courage to walk on and do it in the SEC. If only we could see the dangers and unpredictability of life’s hurdles. If only we could see the suffering hidden behind his beautiful smile, the social anxiety, general anxiety and low self-esteem. William's story is the same story as when we were at Ole Miss in the 80's. It makes me wonder and almost have a survivor's guilt - why am I still alive - how come I got to live.... ? This story is still, as if not more, relevant as it was when I was in school - I have to say though I was seriously shocked and saddened. I felt like this was something I HAD to explore because for some strange reason the universe let me live. Unfortunately, Williams story is sadly becoming a common story. Young men in particular still seem uncomfortable discussing anxiety, depression and dark feelings and the opioid crisis has become a full-blown epidemic. Last year 115 Americans died every day from an accidental overdose and the rate of these deaths has risen 522% since 2002. At this point I don’t know anyone that has not been affected by this personally. “For Ole Miss freshmen: My son William’s story” By David Magee “A new freshman class started at Ole Miss this week and I wish I could tell them all this story. It’s about my oldest son, William, who was a freshman in 2008. He would gladly tell them himself, if only he were alive.” https://www.oxfordeagle.com/2016/08/28/my-son-williams-story-shared-to-help-others/ I was honored and humbled that William's family would let me interview David, William’s father, for my Podcast Grey Matters Now - let's change the world one difficult conversation at a time please! The hope and manifestation of positive change in just one year! Below – The William Magee Center For Wellness Education at Ole Miss.

Beep, ping, buzz.  In many ways those sounds and sensations dominate our lives in ways they have not done in years past. We are confronted with feedback on our efforts, our friendships and our thoughts. Much of this feedback is great; sometimes not so great.  Regardless of how we feel about our new reality (personally I really like it), there is a focus on our students and the impact our world of instant communication has on their well being.School counselor Adam Clark has some thoughts to share about these topics. I ask him about what it means to be resilient today and why that is an important part of our general mental health.  In his response, Adam takes us into something he has been thinking about as a long term trend: Going from wellness in our lives to leveraging wisdom as a means of increasing overall well being.BioAdam is a school counselor, photographer, philosopher, artist. His background is in adolescent mental health and, lately, finds himself looking farther afield in terms of strategies to help foster useful patterns with students for their own well-being.Connect with Adam Website Twitter: @adamclark71Resources NY Times article on “How To Live Wisely”
