When you merge with plant medicine, you are making a soul contract. This is a deep level of transformation that returns you to your true essence, which has always been love. - Candice Marie-Fox Breathwork and plant medicine are tools that open the doors to higher consciousness. The difference is that breathwork opens the door gently and invites you in, while plant medicine opens the door, pulls you in, and won’t let go until it chooses. – Christian Minson   ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

Power Quotes From The Show "Plant medicine and breathwork are the top two methods that we use at Rythmia. The plant medicine is inherently the earth's way to usher in transformation and a new level of consciousness." - Christian Minson "Taking plant medicine is truly a soul contract. You are changing the neurological pathways in your brain. Yes, you can do that on a certain level by detoxing or attending motivational seminars and receive the essence of it but plant medicine is the deepest level of transformation and it sticks because you are rewiring your brain and making a soul contract. There is nothing else in the world that I have experienced, seen, or heard of that can do that." - Candice Marie-Fox "People have a concept of who they are in a labeled box. So, when they come to Rythmia and that box gets blow open and they finally have an awakening and see that they're so much more than that box they've put themselves in. The mastery is then going home and applying that awakening. However, once they go home, the real work starts as they have to apply that awakening to their thoughts, actions, and lifestyles in order to maintain and grow this realized awakening of who they are." - Christian Minson "Not every thought that comes into your head is necessarily yours. They could be guidance, intuition, or awareness for you to take the next step in your life." - Candice Marie-Fox "If you're dissatisfied with something in your life, it's because you're either thinking in the future or dwelling in the past. Breathwork will bring you back to the present because the only place where you can breathe is the present." - Christian Minson "We're all trying to get to a higher state of consciousness and getting involved in other people's energy will just lower our vibration. Don't take life too seriously; none of us get out of this alive and this is not the end. Our true home is that energy in heaven and it's so beautiful beyond belief. Sometimes we just get lost but once you drink the plant medicine, you're reminded to just be present, be a good person, and act from love. Literally let your thoughts, speech, and actions be in true alignment and the universe will act in your favor." - Candice Marie-Fox "Fear is the compass needle pointing north. Whatever you're the most afraid of, go in that direction. It's an uncomfortable sensation but it'll become easier to face that discomfort once you see the results.

Power Quotes From The Show "The heart's intelligence is actually much more powerful than the mind." - Jay Brown "There comes a time when your soul has learned its lessons and it wants back in. When that happens, you have to be truly willing to lay your life on the line to merge back with your soul." - Gerry Powell "If you don't let your guard down or if you only lay it down a little bit, you're not going to go as deep. Your soul is not going to be able to come fully into the experience with you." - Jay Brown "I'll never be healed. Healing is an endgame. I don't want to be healed because I like being alive." - Gerry Powell "The heart's intelligence is actually much more powerful than the mind. So, when you connect the heart with the mind, you're in an even greater realm of manifestation and creation." - Jay Brown "What does the question, 'Are you happy?' even mean? Ask others, 'Are you content?' To be content means to be healed in this world. I don't want to be healed; I want to be content and fulfilled with my life." - Gerry Powell Links From Today's Show Rythmia Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Gerry Powell Facebook LinkedIn Instagram Jay Brown Facebook Instagram Evo Experience Facebook Instagram Twitter Sh*t The Moon Said by Gerry Powell HeartMath Rythmia Founder Gerard Armond Powell Heal Yourself with Plant Medicine | Rythmia Life Advancement Center | Ayahuasca Costa Rica Gary Vaynerchuk 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos by Jordan B. Peterson Dr. Joe Dispenza Dying To Live by Susan Blackmore Napoleon Hill WFR 185 Gerry Powell About Gerry Powell Gerard A. Powell was the personification of the American Businessman: Rich, Powerful, and Unhappy. He opted to try anything available to hide from himself and his “perfect” life. Most of his existence he suffered from addiction and depression, incessantly trying to fill the hole deep within, with little or no success. Ultimately, after much trial and error, he found the key to true success and happiness. Today, he serves as a conscious entrepreneur, thought leader, philanthropist and public speaker on a mission to share the modalities and philosophies that transformed his life. And so, Gerry founded the Rythmia Life Advancement Center in Guanacaste, Costa Rica which is a medically licensed life transformation center that is focused on drug and alcohol addiction, general health and wellness and spiritual development. Their team of naturopathic healers, health specialists, and spiritual teachers are all working in tandem to create the most integrative programs in the world. Their goal is to continually provide the best healing practices anywhere for a complete mind, body, and spiritual renewal for each and every person. Their gift is the gift of being able to bring true healing to you, and offer you the setting and tools to do just that. About Jay Brown Jay  Brown is a life hacker and professor of play.

For greater wellness, we need to create a primal fusion of diet, exercise, rest, and happiness. Without even one, none of them will work. All of your primal needs have to fuse perfectly and be in balance. - Sara Gustafson How can we break through modern world influences that numb, distract, and cloud our thinking to be with our most authentic, primal self?

They don't prioritize, understand, or believe the value of happiness. It's impossible to have a balanced primal fusion if you're not happy." - Sara Gustafson Listen To Episode 268 As Sara Gustafson Uncovers: Why the rapid growth of violence has been so hard on men and their masculine identity. Why conflict is healthy in a relationship, love is hard, and relationships take work. Why people hide behind their ego through spiritual materialism by going to church or yoga class and owning items like crystals. Why activism is still a form of violence because it's segregating and dividing. The health issues she faced as a child with a poor immune system and how taking antibiotics and the steroid, prednisone, had a further negative effect on her wellness. The social pressures she faced as a teenager to be perfect while battling constant illness. How her own experiences with bullying and sexual assault as a teenager led her to help other girls her age in an organization she began with local schools counselors called Teens Against Dating Violence. How being a victim led her to make herself more masculine through bodybuilding, being tougher, and emasculating men which then led to a lot of hurt in her relationships with them. The difficult divorce she experienced and how that led her feeling like a victim once again. The visceral coding that the mind goes through when we've experienced trauma. Why women shouldn't be raising hell through protest but raising hell within themselves to let go of all the pain that's inside.

Why women have such a hard time accepting that they're holding onto their anger for so long because of victim empowerment. The importance of knowing how to breathe properly deep in the belly before attending a breathwork workshop. How being authentic about honest about her personal life helps her keep in check. [spacer height="20px" id="2"] Power Quotes From The Show "The Hero's Journey isn't about sacrifice, it's about uncovering your truth. You have to decondition your truth, break it open, and put yourself back together again." - Sara Gustafson "Embodying, exploring, and sitting with our feelings without any distractions is the hardest part of inner work because it is not comfortable. We're talking no drugs, alcohol, or excessive activities. If anything is going to make you grow, it's that because of how our modern culture has been built. Everything you can think of that will numb the cry of our bodies exists in substances like pills, environments like bars, or distractions like spending long amounts of time doing an activity from working out to shopping to learning." - Sara Gustafson "For greater wellness, you have to focus on fusing all of your primal needs together. Without even one, none of them will work. If you don't have your diet in place, exercise will fall apart. If you don't rest or recover, nothing else will be in place. If you're not happy, then forget being able to do anything else. If you're not focusing on yourself and taking responsibility for that, then why invest in anything else? All of your primal needs need to fuse perfectly and be in balance." - Sara Gustafson "Happiness is what's missing from most people's primal fusion. They don't prioritize, understand, or believe the value of happiness. When we try to program happiness into a client's life, it can take them up to a year sometimes to begin to start practicing it because they don't understand its value. It's impossible to have good health if you're not happy." - Sara Gustafson "You are in control of your life and every decision you make. You have the power and you can create anything that you want to happen. Some people are so afraid of that power that they don't want it because they're afraid that once they recognize and embody that power, then they're responsible for it. Once they're responsible for that power, they're then afraid to fail." - Sara Gustafson Links From Today's Show Sara Gustafson Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Primal Fusion Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Primal Fusion Team Primal Fusion Holistic Health, Performance & Transformational Life Coaching Women Who Raise Hell Facebook Group Neurosomatic Therapy Diaphragmatic Breathing Exercises and Your Vagus Nerve Breathology: Master Your Nervous System Breathwork I Tried This Trippy Healing Modality For Mental Clarity—And Still Can't Believe How It Made Me Feel Eckhart Tolle JP Sears WFR 226 Paul Chek WFR 258 Boysen Hodgson About Sara Gustafson Visionary thought leader, authenticity expert, and truth-seeking provocateur Sara Gustafson sparks healing + transformation through her powerful life coaching and holistic wellness programs.

Focusing on any type of negative thought pattern doesn't serve you and it spends all of your energy.

JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | *REVIEW THIS PODCAST*   On Wellness Force Radio episode 266, Trainer, Founder of Premier Mind & Body, and Creator of both The 5x2 Method and Emergency7, Chris DiVecchio, discusses the impact of how his parents raised him affected future relationships, how he sets his trajectory for the day with the 5x2 Method, how you can take adult inventory to let go of old weight, and the skill set he developed to not dwell on negative thoughts for too long as an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person). Listen and discover why the 1 hour that you spend in the gym is much less impactful than the 23 hours that you dedicate to lifestyle, stress management, nutrition, supplementation, time management, and recovery. The 5x2 Method Click here to get your copy of The 5x2 Method Did you know you use at least one of your five senses every moment of the day, even when you are asleep? Each sense has its own special power, but it is when they are used in combination that we create those unforgettable experiences. We all have a set of daily habits that tend to dull our senses and encourage us to lead a pretty basic life of existence. We often find ourselves in the vicious cycle of wake up, repeat and go to sleep. Chirs DiVecchio developed the 5x2 method to help wake those senses back up and create a whole new way of thinking, acting, being and doing so that you can start living the life of happiness you deserve! As we know, the five senses are controlled by five organs: Touch - Touch has a memory Sound - Music to your ears Taste - Taste the rainbow Sight - The windows to the soul Smell - Stop and smell the roses In this book, Chris breaks each sense down in detail to help you understand a bit more how they can be used to shift you into a more positive state of being.   "Having control over how I look, feel, and take care of myself mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually costs me nothing. I don't have to pay a cent to register, process, and choose my thoughts and feelings." - Chris DiVecchio  Listen To Episode 266 As Chris DiVecchio Uncovers: What his upbringing was like with such loving parents that he sought out "tough" guidance from his friends' parents. The varying degrees of trauma that people might experience from neglect to no support from their family. Why there's nothing better to him than to make a living to make a difference. How he was able to find general peace and happiness throughout each day with the 5x2 Method even though he wasn't making a lot of money as an actor. Which of the 5x2 Methods help people the most go from doing nothing to creating something. The healing process that the current fitness industry is going through to focus more on wellness. Why he gives his clients a Giving Key necklace as part of working with him on their wellness journey. The deep questions he asks clients to really know who he's working with at their core. The common fear of taking a photo at the start of a weight loss transition and why we shouldn't feel that way. Why we naturally want to deal with what we need to focus on when the stakes are higher. Why losing weight will never be the end of our wellness journey. How to approach working with a new client when they're currently a client of another personal trainer you know. Why you have to be a greater listener to be a great trainer. What lessons we can learn when we pay more attention to something and see all of its benefits and worth. His unique connection to animals throughout his life and how they inspired the 5x2 Method. The biggest lesson that he's learning and teaching at the same time. How he implements his spiritual side to his training and helps his clients do the same. Why he doesn't believe in "good vibes only" with his optimistic outlook and will do the inner work with his deeper emotions. Why being given too much love as a kid was a problem for him as he grew up into adulthood and explored different relationships. About his other program, The E7 (Emergency 7), which is a 7-day protocol to help people naturally drop weight by their target date for a specific event such as a wedding. Power Quotes From The Show "If you feel good emotionally, then 9 times out of 10, your body is going to match that." - Chris DiVecchio "The growing fitness trend of using performance-enhancing supplements has its place but the healing process is really what people are focusing on now. Our main concern today is caring about how we feel rather than how we look. That's where the world of fitness and wellness is going. We're now realizing that if you feel good, then 9/10 times your body is going to match that vibration." - Chris DiVecchio "I had to put in an insane amount of trust that I was doing the right thing and I was in the right space. For me to freak out, panic, or to buy into any type of negative thought pattern I have right now, it's just not going to serve me. If I have control over how I look, feel, and take care of myself mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually, then I have to do that at least. That costs me nothing; I don't have to pay a cent to register, process, and choose my thoughts and feelings." - Chris DiVecchio "Taking inventory is important in order to look back and reflect on your lifestyle situations, habits, or traumas. Being able to learn from past experiences and dissect some of the emotional turmoil that you've been through without allowing yourself to get stuck in it is a skill. A lot of people don't get as deep in their past to clear house is because they're afraid of what they might see along that journey." - Chris DiVecchio "Forget about discipline; discipline doesn't mean anything. What we actually need to do right now is care. The people who are at the top of their game in optimal health and wellness are those who care enough about themselves and care enough about their bodies to focus on what contributes to a healthy looking vessel." - Chris DiVecchio   Links From Today's Show Chris DiVecchio Facebook Instagram Twitter Premier Mind & Body Facebook Twitter The 5x2 Method Emergency7 Man loses 70 pounds after his poker buddies bet him $1M that he couldn't TED Talk with Joshua Klein: A thought experiment on the intelligence of crows In The Realm of Hungry Ghosts with Dr. Gabor Mate The 5 Love Languages The Giving Keys Shawn Stevenson WFR 058 Rob Dionne WFR 242 Aaron Hinde About Chris DiVecchio Chris DiVecchio, Founder & Trainer, brings a wealth of self-development transformation mixed with a very practical technique to his fitness training.

That's why the phrase is called, 'Casting spells,' because you're spelling things into reality. But when you use airy-fairy language or talk about vibrational quantum nonsense, you turn off people. You have to meet people where they're at and demystify the mysticism because science is catching up with what the ancients knew. If you can find ways to transform that into being more unrelatable, that will help so many people on their wellness journeys." - Jennifer Sodini "My biggest heart intention is to find a space and to create experience and content that makes people feel at one with everything and everyone. I want to help people be able to converse with somebody that maybe they perceive as their opposite with an open heart. I want to allow people to be who they are without trying to expect anything more." - Jennifer Sodini "We're in an interesting time where so many of us don't even know what reconnecting to our soul means. We don't even know that we have a soul as spiritual beings and discovering that is so important. When we realize that, we find out that we're so much bigger, important, and powerful than we've ever realized." - Jennifer Sodini "Forgiving ourselves is a constant process but would you treat a child the same way that you treat yourself? Would you speak to a child with such critical, harsh words? This child is your core essence and pure being so don't hurt, harm, or speak to your inner child with such negative words." - Jennifer Sodini   Links From Today's Show Jennifer Sodini Facebook Twitter Instagram WITMA Live Facebook Instagram Evolve + Ascend Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Amenti Oracle: Feather Heart Deck and Guidebook 2012 Time for Change Trailer Abraham-Hicks Publications - Law of Attraction Official Site They Live Aleister Crowley Letting Go: The Pathway of Surrender by David R.

Power Quotes From The Show "No one ever finishes their inner work because the mystery is bottomless." - Steven Kessler "Most of us are so used to being in one or more patterns that we think that's who we are. If you ask someone, 'Why do you behave that way?' They'll respond, 'That's just the way I am,' or 'That's all I know,' or 'That's me,' because they're not used to experiencing themselves as presence. They're only used to experiencing themselves in pattern." - Steven Kessler "To be present in the moment is to be here and fully here rather than have an automatic mechanism from the past running in the background that is distorting your perception, thoughts, and feelings. In order to be present now, you cannot be in your personality pattern." - Steven Kessler "We'll select the safety strategies that work the best for us and then repeat them over and over again. As we repeat our favorite safety strategies, they become conditioned into our body and develop into personality patterns. These patterns run automatically as soon as we even feeling slightly overwhelmed." - Steven Kessler "I don't use the term, 'personality types,' because this is not who you are from birth to death. A Personality pattern is a map of safety strategies or what you do rather than who you are." - Steven Kessler   Links From Today's Show Steven Kessler Facebook LinkedIn YouTube Pinterest The 5 Personality Patterns by Steven Kessler Your Personality Profile EFT Therapy Center with Steven Kessler Steven Kessler on 5 Personality Patterns: Understanding Yourself & Others Diamond Heart Meditation School Lynda Caesara Be Here Now by Ram Dass Abraham-Hicks Publications Dr. Gabor Mate WFR 250 Dave Asprey About Steven Kessler Steven Kessler has been studying people his whole life.

Power Quotes From The Show "If you don't share your unique gifts, talents, and passions, it'll eat you up inside. It's just a matter of time before it makes you miserable because you will be further and further away from your purpose." - Charles Clay "The body is able to heal when we learn how to breathe properly. Proper breathing allows us to relax the nervous system in a way that we might not have been used to before. My breathwork practice has now evolved to what I call expansion breathing which is a really simple, experiential breath technique that starts recalibrating the way we breathe. Once you combine that with the optimal activation of your core and the alignment of your body, you have yourself a technique called the Bulletproof Core." - Charles Clay "When people have the tools to really feel, let go, and transmute anger into something constructive, then they can easily move into courage, hope, and back to their natural state of joy." - Charles Clay "Neurokinetic therapy gave me incredible results and has become this amazing tool that I now use to uncover the deeper layers. Through it, we can address the metaphysical, emotional, and physiological aspects to help release tension, activate muscle, and restore function in the body. Once you restore function, there's no need for pain. Pain is the check engine light and understanding that has changed my whole mindset about pain. Pain has now become one of my greatest teachers because it's really allowed me to dive in, appreciate the signals from my body, and improve that relationship I have with it." - Charles Clay Links From Today's Show Connect with Charles Clay via: Facebook Email at fitlifesd@gmail Instagram YouTube The Bulletproof Core Program Roadmap to Self-Mastery, 8 Week M Powered Men’s Group Training The 4 Keys to Happiness FREE Gift The Better Business Book How Death Opens The Masculine Heart Neurokinetic Therapy Valsalva maneuver David Hawkins Larry King Answers the Question: "What's Life All About?"

The problems, no matter how advanced these "fake meats"are, that exist for our health and the planet. Ingredients that are in the fake Beyond Burger and Impossible Burger and what makes them "bleed". The extreme price of both the Beyond Burger and Impossible Burger and why it's probable that we may never actually be able to purchase them on our own at the store but will be able to find them in restaurants. How meat plays a role in the evolution of our brain size and human culture. What it is about our human nature that entices us to hunt an consume meat. Vital nutrients that are in meat and not plants such as bioavailable vitamin B12. The EAT-Lancet study on meat and why they recommended eating only 2 oz of meat a day with the environment in mind. Evidence that it might not actually help the environment if we stop eating meat because of the shift in focus on crops that also need a lot of resources. The importance of meat for human brain development. Differences in the meat we eat today compared to what our ancestors ate. What the FDA knows and doesn't know about the ingredients in our food including the lab-grown, fake burgers. Tyson's chicken investing in both the lab-grown and fake plant-based meats. Why some of the world's richest people like Bill Gates and companies like Tyson are researching lab-grown and plant-based fake meats. What would happen if the government helped invest in local farming in the USA to create more Polyface farms.

The carnivore diet that has recently taken off in the last couple of years. Power Quotes From The Show "If you can afford to eat grass-fed, then eat fattier cuts of meat but if you can only afford to eat traditional meat, then eat as lean of meat as possible." - Shawn Mihalik "Crops such as wheat, rice, and soy take a lot of resources and deplete the soil. In comparison, regenerative farms, take us to a whole other level of farming. If done right, they can be carbon positive. If you were to eat animals that were raised this way, you would be actively helping the environment because it nourishes the soil, actively restores grasslands, and new wildlife if brought into the area." - Shawn Mihalik "Most animals that we eat today are not fed the grasses that they were evolved to eat but wheat, soy, and corn which are heavily modified. This then leads the animals to develop a whole different omega 3 to omega 6 ratio than what our ancestors ate. We can still find the same type of meat that our ancestors ate but the majority of us are eating animals that have been raised in these stressful, abusive environments and we're eating the energy of these animals." - Shawn Mihalik "Most of our current cropland is actually being used to grow the wheat, corn, and soy that is feeding factory farmed animals; not to grow what's feeding humans and that is part of why we currently have a food shortage. So, if everybody ate sustainably grown meat, we would be repurposing a lot of that land and replenishing that soil as well. In addition, we probably wouldn't be eating as much meat as we currently do now but we would be eating higher quality meat." - Shawn Mihalik Links From Today's Show Shawn Mihalik Twitter Facebook Paleo Magazine Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Pinterest Paleo Magazine Radio  PMR #249: Can We Fix Meat?

We all face wars inside of us. Some are self-doubt, regret, loneliness, fear of failure, and the need to be in control but we have weapons. Our weapons are love, good friends, exercise, nutrition, rest, and living in each and every moment. - Dr. Theresa Larson Are you holding back from asking for help out of fear of judgment, shame, or appearing weak?   ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | *REVIEW THIS PODCAST   In Wellness Force Radio episode 261, Author of Warrior: A Memoir, Physical Therapist at MovementRx, Host of the My New Normal Podcast, and former Marine Corps Engineer Officer and Combat Veteran, Dr. Theresa Larson, shares how the loss of her mother led to her bulimia, why it's a sign of strength to ask for help, and what helps her stay centered, balanced, and focused on herself by setting healthy boundaries. Discover how to become your own warrior of wellness with Dr. Theresa's LOVE Principle: Lead  Oxygen Vulnerability Elasticity Warrior by Dr. Theresa Larson Click here to read Warrior: A Memoir by Dr. Theresa Larson In this inspiring memoir, a former female Marine platoon leader recalls the wars she has fought—on the playing field, the battlefield, and inside her own soul—revealing how overcoming the harrowing circumstances in her life helped her ultimately redefine what it means to be strong and what “perfect” really is. Theresa Larson has lived multiple lives. At ten she was a caregiver to her dying mother. As an adolescent, an All-Star high school, college, and professional softball player. As a young adult, a fitness competition winner, beauty pageant contestant, and model. And as a grown woman, a high-achieving Lieutenant in the Marines, in charge of an entire platoon while deployed in Iraq. Meanwhile, Theresa was battling bulimia nervosa, an internal struggle which ultimately cut short her military service when she was voluntarily evacuated from combat. Theresa’s journey to wellness required the bravery to ask for help, to take care of herself first, and abandon the idea of “perfect.” In Warrior, she lays bare all of these lives in intimate and vivid detail, examining extremely personal and sometimes painful moments and how, by finally accepting the help of others, she learned to make herself whole. From growing up in a log cabin outside Seattle to facing down the enemy in Iraq, Theresa’s journey demonstrates that good health and happiness is a daily, intentional act that requires persistence and commitment. Theresa hopes that through sharing her story, she will help inspire others to empower themselves, embrace their inner warrior and re-define strength. Startling and funny, terrifying and triumphant, heartbreaking and inspirational, Warrior is at heart a story of perseverance and success—of a determined woman who is model for everyone struggling to conquer their own demons. Theresa shows that asking for help can be an act of courage and that we are stronger than we think when faced with seemingly impossible odds.   "We all face wars inside of us but our weapons are love, good friends, exercise, nutrition, rest, and living in each and every moment." - Dr. Theresa Larson Listen To Episode 261 As Dr. Theresa Larson Uncovers: Why a true warrior is someone who is open to being vulnerable, asking for help, and taking ownership for yourself. How her bulimia began and how she transitioned out for it when she finally asked for help and received the outside support she needed. Her childhood and the story she told herself after her mother's death that to be loved, she had to achieve. The special relationship she had with her mother and why The Phantom Of The Opera meant so much to them. The words of advice and love from her mother that have made a lasting impact on her own life and wellness journey. Why there's always a way out if you're struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts. How the sport of softball helped give her power, control, and positive affirmations. The need she had to win and be noticed by everybody as a young athlete which then led to her struggling to take care of herself. How she and her brothers helped their father improve his health and bounce back with purpose after the passing of his wife. Why the more pressure people face, the more it exasperates undealt demons. Why eating disorders aren't about food but an addiction that begins in the soul and the lack of belief in oneself. The judgment she felt from other people when she went on medical leave during her deployment in Iraq. Why judgment and dismissing opinions will only feed a person's addiction and negative behavior patterns. The various tools of distraction we face today in modern society and how they affect our health, relationships, and wellness journey. Steps she takes to set up healthy boundaries to stay true to her purpose, take care of her health, and be there for her family. How she handles being the North Star in her own life without her parents no longer being there to support her. What skills we can focus on obtaining to learn how to live in and embrace the present moment. Why multitasking is taking away from your self-care practice and attention to life. How to fill your cup by first spending time alone to self-reflect, get your thoughts out there, and get to know yourself. The toll that invisible wounds like eating disorders can take on people and why you should never compare your issues to other people's. Power Quotes From The Show "People shouldn't have to wait as long as I did to ask for help. There should be support already there for these individuals that are going to war. As our children grow up, we should be teaching them coping skills and that it's okay to be vulnerable. I find that the more vulnerable I am, the more authentic and powerful I am as an individual." - Dr. Theresa Larson  "You can look great from the outside and have all of this success but I want to know how you truly are, how you handle stress, and how you're coping with what you're experiencing. Asking other people or even yourself those kinds of questions matter. How are you coping? Do you have anything going on in your life where you just feel empty inside? Find out why that is and what's causing you to feel that way because that is not living." - Dr. Theresa Larson "Life is chaotic as it is and we have to let go of distraction. Put your technology away and don't have it with you at the dinner table or when you go out to eat lunch with your family. When you're doing a task whether at work or at home, solely be present with doing that task. Multitasking actually makes you really ineffective and scatterbrained. The key is to clear your attention when you're feeling overwhelmed, let distractions go, and be present with the person in front of you because that dopamine response you get is going to be so much greater." - Dr. Theresa Larson     Links From Today's Show Dr. Theresa Larson Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Movement Rx Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Warrior: A Memoir by Dr. Theresa Larson My New Normal Podcast MobilityWOD The Low Back Fix The Knee Fix The Shoulder Fix What Being a Warrior Really Means | Theresa Larson | TEDxUCSD From Sports to Inner Struggles, Former Marine Lieutenant is a Warrior Helping Others Michael Phelps Gets Real About Mental Illness Organifi - Ashwagandha Study  Body For Life War and the Soul by Edward Tick Gabor Mate Simon Sinek WFR 164 Anders Varner About Dr. Theresa Larson Dr. Theresa Larson (aka “Dr. T”) has become one of the fitness world’s most sought after experts on movement health.

When we realize that we are not our thoughts or actions, we can begin to become less attached to what we were and create a new version of ourselves. - Stefanos Sifandos Do you wake up in the morning being pulled by life or do you have to push and trudge every day? Are you living a life of truth? If not, then let's explore it together. ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | *REVIEW THIS PODCAST   On Wellness Force Radio episode 260, Relational Alchemist, International Speaker and Author, Stefanos Sifandos, shares why we have so much more to do as a society as far as evolutionary wholeness, what men's work means to him and how it can help a man who is struggling with himself, and the evolution of masculinity and femininity in this modern world. Listen and discover how shifting his mindset through breath, sound and movement transformed how Stefanos sees himself, others, and how others see him. Reclaim Your Kingdom Embark On A 3-Month Immersive Journey For Men Only Join Stefanos for The Most Comprehensive Men's Transformation Program Join Stefanos and a tribe of inspired men on a 3-month journey as we explore our depths, inner strength and evolve our consciousness . . . all by following ancient wisdom blended with cutting-edge modern practices. We come together as a tribe of empowered men willing to transform for the better. To expand our consciousness, access to inner resources and connect, bond and unite as strong & empowered men to open our minds and hearts to the world that has been bestowed upon our feet. You will be guided, facilitated, directed and asked to contribute meaningfully your life experience. You will not be judged, you will grow, you will be challenged and you will experience being a man through a new lens – a supportive, empowered and life-changing lens. You will learn the difference between being a good man and being good at being a man! Reclaim your kingdom – a warrior’s code is predicated on the uniquely put together 12 principles, which form the conscious warrior model. This ethos is about reframing the manner in which men behave, become and move through the world. The manner in which we ‘see’ ourselves and the manner in which we learn to forgive, create, release and evolve. This program is a pragmatic and practical way to evolve our ways leveraging ancient wisdom and modern techniques (such as neuroscience, modern psychology, eastern mysticism and evolutionary psychology to mention a few) to allow us to be more connected, intelligent, adaptive, strong, inclusive and lovingly open men – to ultimately revere women and children and to learn to step humbly into our authentic power and of course revere ourselves. Listen To Episode 260 As Stefanos Sifandos Uncovers: What evolutionary wholeness is and why it's his mission to teach more people about it. What compensatory strategies are that we cultivate during our youth and bring into our adult lives and relationships. The importance of taking regular inventory of our experiences, thoughts, and emotions. Why stress is the high-achiever's word for fear and how to cope with that emotion. Why hypocrisy is such a natural part of life and it's necessary for growth to happen. Various tools from journaling and group work to shamanic healing and counseling to help you unpack your thoughts and emotions. The emotional roller coaster he went through as an adolescent and the aggressive behavior he learned from his father. How he began his own deep dive into a wellness journey to free himself of his negative habits, invest in himself, and heal from past trauma. How suicidal thoughts are a by-product of not living in our truth and being in a haze of pain when we think there's no alternative. The plunge he took to really feel his emotions and move beyond his pain by giving himself permission to fully feel and live by intention. The meaning behind the powerful question we can ask ourselves during tense moments, "What would love do now?" Changing the brain physiology via neural empowerment and mapping through breathwork, journaling, and counseling. How to change your attitude, behavior, and focus in 3-seconds. How breathwork literally saved his life and the various techniques he practices for trauma. How the experiences we have from ages 0-7 impact and affect our adult relationships. Various types of relationships from polyamory to monogamy and which one he resonates with the most. Why people consciousnessly put themselves through pain instead of allowing nature to take the lead. Some qualities men can learn to master in order to go from being good to great. The natural segregation that happens in society and how it's come to an extreme point in our modern world. Power Quotes From The Show "Stress' is the high-achiever's word for 'fear.'" - Stefanos Sifandos  "Compensatory strategies are developed and cultivated when we're very young and we bring them into our adult lives and relationships. However, they don't really have a place. We don't need to behave in that extreme yet we do anyway because we're coming from a set of unconscious feelings or fears. So, when we begin to do a self-inventory, it's normal that we don't really know where to look, it's really difficult to do on our own, and we feel stuck in our trauma." - Stefanos Sifandos "Instead of justifying our trauma, pain, and fear as being normal parts of our lives, we need an inventory. Something that we could be taught as young people is to take regular inventory of our lives. Whether or not you think something is "wrong" with you, at the end of every day, take inventory of your life. How did you behave and think? Were you happy with your thoughts and interactions? How did you relate to others? How did you give and receive love? Did you experience pain, fear, or discomfort? What was the cause of discomfort? Have you noticed those patterns of discomfort before? We're not taught to be self-reflective or self-critical in our culture often enough." - Stefanos Sifandos "I don't like to say, 'I'm stressed,' because it makes me feel weak. I'd rather say, 'I'm scared' of something. I don't have a healthy fear with stress and underpinning that is a fear as well. To me, saying, 'I'm stressed,' is like saying, 'I'm not good enough to cope with what I'm producing, doing, or facing,' and I don't like that." - Stefanos Sifandos "What does it mean to have a yearning to actually grow and be better than you were yesterday? I don't know what it means for you; that's something you have to answer on your own. When we start paying attention to ourselves through conscious awareness, we get to learn more about ourselves but we also have to be okay with being uncomfortable. If we unpack something that's painful, there are several tools available to us that we can use: journaling, support groups, psychologists, spiritual work, or anything that resonates with you that can help. That will help you cultivate resilience in the body and in the mind." - Stefanos Sifandos "The desire to be self-reflective requires work and effort. Today, in contemporary times without the application of effort, we're losing the essence of who we are as men. As we've evolutionarily grown, we have become accustomed to being in involatile environments. Our bodies are made to work and the more physical work the body does, the healthier the body is."  - Stefanos Sifandos "Too many men live in lies and we come across either shady, confused, manipulative, or untrustworthy. Why do we do that? It's because we're valuing values like status, accumulation of material goods, or how others see us over being just genuine and living in our truth. We don't even realize we're doing it and if you want to be attractive to a woman, you have to be the truth." - Stefanos Sifandos    Links From Today's Show Stefanos Sifandos Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube LinkedIn Pinterest Reclaim Your Kingdom Conscious Mentorship Program Alchemy Academy SoulPlay Retreats Dr. John Demartini Dr. Joe Dispenza Jordan Peterson David Deida Byron Katie Dr. Peter Levine The Body Keeps the Score by Dr. Bessel van der Kolk Dr. Harville Hendrix Keeping the Love You Find by Dr. Harville Hendrix Tony Robbins WFR 086 Mark Divine WFR 132 Christine Hassler WFR 129 Gretchen Rubin WFR 196 Aubrey Marcus WFR 217 Steph Gaudreau WFR 245 Peter Sage WFR 258 Boysen Hodgson About Stefanos Sifandos Stefanos is a Relational Alchemist, International Speaker and Author who facilitates transformational growth through neuro-empowerment practices, an integration of spiritual praxis and western psychology to improve, evolve and enhance the quality of your relationships.

Can we really afford to just wait and only treat people when they're chronically ill? No, we simply cannot continue to fund this problem. Through KNEW Health, we’re creating a new story that empowers people to own their wellness, save money, and receive the healthcare they actually need. - James Maskell Are you ready to take your health into your own hands without insurance, bureaucracy, and high healthcare costs holding you back?   ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | *REVIEW THIS PODCAST   In Wellness Force Radio episode 259, Creator of The Functional Forum, CEO & Founder of The Evolution of Medicine, and Author of The Evolution of Medicine, and Founder of KNEW Health, James Maskell, discusses how the healthcare system is set up to keep people hooked on long-term medications and actually lead them to worse health, why functional medicine's focus is turning towards whole health treatments, and why reversing chronic disease should be our number one priority right now in the world of healthcare. Discover how functional medicine, community micro practice, and direct primary care will change the future of healthcare as we know it. KNEW Health Finally, the alternative to expensive health insurance you've been waiting for. Click here to learn more about KNEW Health today. KNEW Health is not an insurance company. We are a community of healthy, happy, wellness-minded individuals like yourself, who work together to stay well and contribute to a community fund to support one another’s large medical bills. Think of this as a safety net for large, unexpected medical costs. Because you take care of your health, you’re likely to need less medical expense support — so why should you pay insane insurance premiums when you can have your large expenses supported by our Medical Cost-Sharing Community that is over 10,000 members strong? With conventional health insurance, you–the healthy person who exercises, doesn’t smoke, and eats fresh fruits and vegetables–are subsidizing the medical expenses of people who smoke, don’t exercise, and eat junk food all day. How unfair is that? Furthermore, with health insurance, it’s likely you’re paying these high premiums and yet not using many of your benefits. That’s money down the drain each and every month. At KNEW Health, you’ll be paying so much less each month–which gives you more money to invest in wellness and preventative care, such as fitness classes, acupuncture, massage, healthy fresh food, and herbs and supplements. Wouldn’t you rather invest your monthly health expenses into life-giving wellness care, rather than sending that money to faceless health insurance bureaucracies, never to be seen again? By making a commitment to living a healthy lifestyle, you’re helping transform health care.   "Many of us don't need these expensive medical visits, lab tests, and pharmaceuticals. Most chronic disease is driven by lifestyle and can be fixed by lifestyle." - James Maskell Listen To Episode 259 As James Maskell Uncovers: KNEW Health - What it is, how it can help you, and how it's changing the narrative around healthy lifestyles and self-awareness. Why he did the KNEW Health Tour - a 4-month family trip to launch evolution of alternative health. Why functional medicine goes much further into our health's journey than just a couple of lab tests. How functional medicine can help prevent the body from degrading, slowing down, and experiencing chronic disease. The Community Micro Practice - how it's benefiting the world of functional medicine and changing the lives of both healthcare practitioners and their patients. The vital importance of looking at our emotions and past traumas so that they do not manifest into a disease. Steps people can take to begin looking for a functional medicine practitioner that's right for them. What Direct Primary Care is and how it can improve a doctor's relationship with patients and the ability to afford healthcare. His 3-part strategy for the true transformation of healthcare explained. The high amount of insurance he was facing while living and working in New York City and what answers he found when he sought out different opportunities. His mission to begin his own program to help people save money on insurance and encourage others to reach out to functional medical doctors when they really need it. The experiences that transformed his life and drove him to keep going in his mission and see this functional medicine movement through. How the company, Heal, is changing healthcare by having practitioners go straight to the patients' homes. The flood of new applications and tools that are available right now such as GoodRx and MDSave which can help you cut down on the price of healthcare. His explanation for why it's unlikely that functional medicine will be delivered through health insurance anytime soon. Why it's easier to change your behavior and reduce chronic disease while in a group environment compared to working one-on-one with a singular healthcare provider. How healing with psychedelics and marijuana can play a part in functional medicine. The first step you can take towards shifting your health by finding a community environment that can help you. "More medicine doesn't actually equal better health outcomes. In fact, the more you use the medical system, the worse your off your health outcomes are going to be in the long run." - James Maskell "Functional medicine is a new operating system of delivering health that is focused on three main principles: root cause resolution, holistic viewpoint, and participatory system. What really differentiates functional medicine from integrative, naturopathic, or holistic medicine is that it's a reproducible system and structure which helps everyone follow the same steps. In that sense, it prioritizes what you should be doing in a specific order and that makes it much more efficient than other methods." - James Maskell "The most effective way that functional medicine is being delivered is through a group format such as that at The Cleveland Clinic. There's really something powerful about the vulnerability of being in front of a group and the community that's created by being amongst supportive peers." - James Maskell "What will it take to facilitate a consciousness transformation in how we view healthcare? There is a very clear engine of transformation consciousness that happens when people go to a functional medicine doctor. When you go to an empathetic provider like that, they will empower you to take action to form a new story about your life." - James Maskell "If you can get people to change behavior in a group environment, a lot of the chronic disease will go away. Many of us don't need these expensive medical visits, lab tests, and pharmaceuticals. Most chronic disease is driven by lifestyle and can be fixed by lifestyle, we just need structures that are efficient enough to deliver it."  - James Maskell Links From Today's Show James Maskell Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn KNEW Health Facebook Instagram YouTube The Functional Forum The Evolution of Medicine The Evolution of Medicine by James Maskell Rythmia GoodRx app  MDSave app Heal.com ICEERS - International Center for Ethnobotanical Education, Research Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies - MAPS Dr. Mark Hyman Valerian/lemon balm use for sleep disorders during menopause. (Organifi GOLD) The Cleveland Clinic Jason Silva Dr. Kelly Brogan Dr. Jeffrey Gladd Michael Pollan WFR 096 Daniel Schmachtenberger WFR 185 Gerry Powell WFR 140 Chris Kresser WFR 249 Niraj Naik About James Maskell With the soul of an advocate and the mind of an entrepreneur, James Maskell has spent the past decade sparking debate and encouraging a shift away from conventional western medicine and toward a wellness-centered, functional medicine model--starting with the doctors themselves.

Learn how he's helping design a new blueprint for psychiatric healing to help decrease addiction, depression, trauma, and PTSD.  "Coming to truth is not a comfortable path. We don't do this work because it's easy; we do this because it's the path towards our liberation, fulfillment, expression, and authentic beauty being readily available." - @drdanengle on @WellnessForce Radio 241 wellnessforce.com/241   Click here to get your copy of The Concussion Repair Manual by Dr. Dan Engle Concussion -- the biggest name in today's high-impact sports. As more and more high-profile athletes come forward to share their stories of invisible suffering after head injuries, we as a culture are finally acknowledging this silent epidemic. The Concussion Repair Manual is written as a user’s guide for those suffering after head traumas and those that support them. It is one-part “textbook,” packed with the leading research on medical technologies for healing the injured brain, and one-part “workbook,” offering a step-by-step method for making and tracking a personalized recovery regimen. Dr. Dan Engle's background and passion for concussion repair stem from a three-decade investigation into the many modalities for healing his own traumas. When the usual medical treatments didn’t help, he explored what was possible, found what worked and put them into this manual - "the best of the best" in the medical arena for recovering from sports-related head injury.   Listen To Episode 241 As Dr. Dan Engle Uncovers: His connection with human optimization and wellness leaders such as Paul Chek, Kyle Kingsbury, and Aubrey Marcus. The current anxiety and depression we're currently going through as a society; especially for adolescents, geriatrics, and veterans. Why social media and feeling urgent all the time is leading us to feel more lonely, anxious, and depressed than ever before. What emotions we feel when we're being inauthentic and lying on social media. Why time urgency is the number one cause of stress. What revelation he had while healing from his injuries that he didn't want to live by other people's expectations and didn't want to be working in a hospital for the rest of his career. His experience from the plant medicine, Ayahuasca, and what he learned about himself from it. Why our society resorts to prescribing medication rather than looking at the core issue of a person's health problem. Why psychedelics aren't for everyone and they should be respected rather than misused. Benefits of psychedelics for those who are suitable candidates to use them to heal. Proper and regulated screening, preparation, and integration that patients would receive during treatment with psychedelics such as Psilocybin. Differences between levels 1, 2 and 3 plant medicine experiences and which ones are the most recommended for therapeutic use. Why he believes plant medicine and psychedelics are part of a sacred path for people who are candidates to participate. Why he contemplated suicide after diving so deep into plant medicine and thinking about all that was expected of him by other people. How he was in this deep Bardo phase of being in between lives and worlds have his experience with Ayahuasca. What The Satori Method is and how it helps with multi-level healing. Sensory deprivation, Vipassana, and meditation - how they can be integrated into plant medicine preparation. Why being able to practice sensory deprivation and meditation in a float tank is so beneficial and vital to being able to experience plant medicine. Why mindfulness meditation can be harmful to those with active PTSD and trauma but external guidance is better. Power Quotes From The Show "We're more digitally connected than we've ever been but we're less socially connected than we've ever been. We, as social beings who bonded for connection, are fighting a loneliness epidemic." - @drdanengle on @WellnessForce Radio episode 241 wellnessforce.com/241 "If we can't talk it through at therapy, then we rely on pharmaceuticals to manage the symptoms. Our health care is a system that's built for acute care management but it's horrible at chronic care support and core issue resolution. Psychedelic medicines are good for the core issues where psychiatry is weak. Many of the psychedelics are good for one if not all of the five core primary archetypes of psychiatric symptoms: depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction and pain." - Dr. Dan Engle "When we become clear with who we are and bring our shadow into the light, we will get to know it. This process helps us integrate our work with the healing. Plant medicines don't fix us and they're not designed to do that. This is our work to do. The medicines help us get clear with our truth and the direction of being able to actually actualize that truth via the next steps and orientation but they don't do the work for us." - Dr. Dan Engle "If we can solidify the foundation to be able to self-regulate better then when we do come up in close with our core issues and shadow material, we're more willing, ready, and able to process it, learn from it, heal it, integrate it, and become more whole." - Dr. Dan Engle   Links From Today's Show Dr. Dan Engle Facebook Instagram Twitter The Revive Treatment Centers of America Facebook Instagram Full Spectrum Medicine The Satori Method Onnit The Concussion Repair Manual California Vision 2020 Huachuma: The Forgotten Psychedelic (Full Documentary) Ayahuasca - Drink The Jungle Documentary Are Psychedelic Drugs the Next Medical Breakthrough?

Masculinity and femininity are inherently beautiful, yet the media has distorted these words with the phrase “toxic.” Together, now we get to decide as a culture how to move forward with a new narrative. Society is changing, and we’re not going backward. - Boysen Hodgson What factors of our culture and society are no longer serving the feminine and masculine? How can we come and work together to create something new that fits what we want?   ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

The ManKind Project Presents: The New Warrior Training Adventure Click here to sign up for The New Warrior Training Adventure The New Warrior Training Adventure: A life-changing 48-hour experience brought to you by the ManKind Project, an international nonprofit organization. The New Warrior Training Adventure is a challenging real-time hero's journey. It's safe, supportive and cutting edge. It is not a retreat, a conference or a workshop. It is unlike anything you've done before. Many men say that this experience is a turning point in their lives, an event that marks the beginning of a new way of being in the world. It is a singular type of life-affirming event, honoring the best in what men have to offer the planet. We are only able to recognize the powerful brilliance of men because we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating ... and suffering. This is the paradox of modern masculinity, and it is a lesson we are dedicated to learning and teaching. The New Warrior Training Adventure is a modern male initiation and self-examination. We believe that this is crucial to the development of a healthy and mature male self, no matter how old a man is. It is the "hero's journey" of classical literature and myth that has nearly disappeared in modern culture. We ask men to stop living vicariously through movies, television, addictions, and distractions and step up into their own adventure - in real time and surrounded by other men. What we practice at The New Warrior Training Adventure and why: Emotional Authenticity - Because we believe in honesty and wholeness ... we practice emotional intelligence and self-awareness. Personal Responsibility - Because we value integrity and accountability ... we take 100% responsibility for our feelings, and we own the impacts - both positive and negative - of our choices and actions. Leadership Mastery - Because we believe that role models change lives ... we practice highly principled personal, interpersonal, and group leadership. Empowered Mission - Because we value generosity, service, and connection to spirit ... we explore and live from our deepest purpose. Supportive Community - Because we care for ourselves and the generations to come ... we create a place for men from all walks of life to learn and teach in a safe, respectful, challenging, and inclusive peer-network.       "We need emotional expression, vulnerability, and softness in men. We need men as nurturers. What is a farmer if not a nurturer? We need that in our world today." - Boysen Hodgson Listen To Episode 258 As Boysen Hodgson Uncovers: The ManKind's mission as a non-profit and the work they do which includes men's groups all over the US, over 150 global training programs, and The New Warrior Training Adventure. Some of his top influences including David Deida and authors of King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine, Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette. Why more than ever we need to teach men that they can express their emotions, be vulnerable, and more nurturing. The narrative and division we see in the media focusing on "toxic" femininity and masculinity. Where the phrase, "toxic" masculinity comes from as a counterpoint to "deep" masculinity. "Toxic" masculinity compared to "toxic" femininity in a world of disconnection and the wave of the feminist movement. How today's modern world is affecting men in the workplace, at home, and higher rates of depression and suicide. Epigenetics and long legacies of trauma that has been inflicted on portions of our society. The powerful practices of moving, zen, and sitting meditation. How they use various archetypes to embody different energies during their Men's Work at MKP. Why the archetype, Sovereignty, is so important for both the masculine and the feminine. The power of purpose and how it and the sovereign energy directly impact your life. Where he was at in his purpose, thoughts, and relationships during his 20s vs. now as a husband, father, and part of MKP's mission. Lessons he learned from observing his father's relationships, his own unhealthy relationship, and processing all of that before he could let go and become his own purpose. How men and women can process and connect together and alone through safe spaces. How men can support each other to heal from their past traumas, come to their whole masculine and feminine selves, and realign with women who've also done the work. How "pink collar jobs" such as teaching have created a divide between men and women as far as what careers are acceptable for each gender. How doing men's work has helped him tap into his himself and his inner Golden Child to help the relationship he has with his children grow. Power Quotes From The Show "As a society, we have to slow down, be present, and get quiet. It's only in that quiet that I can hear my soul or that I can create the possibility to hear yours." - Boysen Hodgson "We have launched a campaign, #IAmResponsible, in response to #MeToo. It's not about, 'Hey, Brother - I'm responsible for your actions' but 'I'm 100% responsible for my actions, for creating the type of culture that I want to live in, and for what masculinity looks like today." - Boysen Hodgson  "At men's group, 'breathe' is probably the first and most powerful incantation that I can do with a man doing a piece of emotional process work. Where are you breathing, how are you breathing into your body, where do I see you inhabiting breath into your body? When you stop breathing, that tells me something about what you're going through." - Boysen Hodgson "Both men and women whether individually or in groups, let's trust each other enough to let us do that work. Society has changed and we're not going backward. What the world needs from us as men is different than what the world needed from us then. Let's move toward the evolution of creating beautiful hearts that want to be connected, loved, shared, and protected." - Boysen Hodgson  "The environment has to be painful enough to motivate a man enough to take action. Men will have a sense in their gut that it's time to do something. So, what we can all do as men is to create and hold a space for when you see a man in your life who you know is experiencing that." - Boysen Hodgson "Men will show up. Men are hungry to be healthy influences and role models. We can fix our community by showing up as men. Through #IAmResponsible, we're stating that we are 100% responsible for our actions, for creating the type of culture that we want to live in, and for what masculinity looks like today."  - Boysen Hodgson   Links From Today's Show Boysen Hodgson Facebook Twitter LinkedIn The ManKindProject Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube The New Warrior Training Adventure The New Macho by Boysen Hodgson #IAmResponsible Campaign David Deida King, Warrior, Magician, Lover: Rediscovering the Archetypes of the Mature Masculine by Robert Moore and Douglas Gillette Dr. Robert Augustus Masters Iron John by Robert Bly The Art of Charm Podcast Dr. Shepherd Bliss The End of Men by Hanna Rosin We Believe: The Best Men Can Be | Gillette (Short Film) Integral Meditation by Ken Wilbur Planet on Purpose by Brandon Peele Amber Ward of Life UnLtd The M21 Guide from Wellness Force WFR 149 Johnny Blackburn   About Boysen Hodgson Boysen Hodgson is the author of ‘The New Macho,’ a credo for the mature masculine.

Your head can be your friend or foe when it comes to getting stronger, fitter, and sexier. That's because your mind is your most powerful muscle. So, you can either flex it to boost your motivation or perseverance which is great or clench it to resist your efforts which is bad. - Jennifer Cohen Is it better to have a fixed, go-go-go mindset on losing weight or do we get to focus on building small, new habits regularly for greater health results?   ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

What patterns of difficulty she noticed in high achievers, executives, and celebrities like Britney Spears while helping them build healthier lifestyles. Her experience working for the music industry in marketing and how she transitioned from that into helping train the artists as a personal fitness coach. How her fitness habits evolved into new strategies once she became a mom which she shares in her latest book and program, Badass Body Goals.

Why HIIT training is the most effective way to burn the most amount of calories in the least amount of time yet you shouldn't do it every day. The importance of constantly tweaking your workouts to stay strong, in shape, and get more results every day.

The importance of always growing both emotionally and spiritually in your own unique wellness journey. How to lead by example and why that's the best motivation for anybody. The 6-morning habits that are destroying our productivity. Why hitting the snooze button is making you less productive, gives you less energy, and makes you procrastinate for the rest of the day.

Strategic practices she helps her executive clients work on to keep them healthy during their busy, long working hours. How you can know when it's time to let go of your personal trainer. What she does to balance her career and family life in order to help alleviate overwhelm. How she helped create a strategy to help her stay on track and avoid pitfalls in her healthy lifestyle through discipline and goals. The vital importance of relieving stress and how you can do that through balance and finding what makes you happy in multiple areas. Power Quotes From The Show "Being mentally fit makes you physically fit. Being present, conscious, having set intentions and goals is the most important part. Losing weight and staying fit is a by-product of all of that." - Jennifer Cohen "All of your focus on fitness is for naught if your diet is not there. 80% of your results come from what you eat and the other 20% is tweaking and toning your workouts. You can't do one without the other."  - Jennifer Cohen "As we get older and have more stressors in life, it's important that we do a lot for our wellness and mind through a holistic approach that's not just nutrition and exercise. What are you doing for your wellbeing? What are you doing for your reflection? Are you drinking enough water? What are you doing for your mobility; are you stretching? There are a lot of different things in the wellness umbrella that are important."  - Jennifer Cohen "Having a goal of getting stronger versus getting skinnier is a more positive message than just losing weight and it's a healthier place to be mentally. Exercise helps to build confidence and mental strength. The stronger you get physically, the more confidence you will have and the stronger you will feel mentally."  - Jennifer Cohen "Motivation comes and goes. You can go to a Tony Robbins seminar and be super motivated and then within the next day, that feeling starts to wane. Same with willpower; it ebbs and flows. You shouldn't be relying on motivation and willpower; you have to build healthy habits and routines to keep you on a path for long-term success. Once you're on autopilot with that healthy behavior and you don't even have to think about exercise or nutrition,  you can use your brain for other things that need your attention." - Jennifer Cohen Links From Today's Show   Jennifer Cohen Facebook Twitter Instagram Badass Body Goals Strong Is The New Skinny No Gym Required Habits & Hustle Podcast 6 Morning Habits That Are Destroying Your Productivity No-Gym Workout With Jennifer Cohen Surrounding Yourself With The Right People Changes Everything Four Ways Your Inner Circle Is Crucial To Your Success 10 Things Healthy People Have in Common How to Set Fitness Goals You'll Actually Achieve This No-Gym, HIIT Workout Gets the Job Done in 10 Minutes A Winter Workout to Improve Your Focus About Jennifer Cohen Jennifer Cohen is a leading fitness and wellness authority, best-selling author, entrepreneur and frequent guest on national media.  She was recently named in “ Greatist” 100 most influential people in Health and Fitness and #16 Most Impactful Fitness Entrepreneurs on Web MD.

Her mission to help people have a different consciousness around money. Why our health is truly our most important asset. Why health and money are one and the same when it comes to freedom and having it all. Dr. Kirk's experience working with veterans and helping them heal through plant medicine. Their experience during a plant medicine ceremony together as business partners and what their biggest takeaways were that led them to deepen their relationship and focus on WealthyWellthy together in this new partnership. The fraud moment of Ayahuasca that people may experience including Krisstina. The roller coaster of emotions and thoughts they experienced when looking at the transition of their new life together. Dr. Kirk's superman complex that he had during his past marriage and how he overcame it. The glass slipper theory of what love and relationships are supposed to be like when life really isn't like that at all. Dr. Kirk's immense growth, courage, and development from his childhood to now into adulthood. How both Dr. Kirk and Krisstina find talking out loud helps them process their thoughts and thus has helped them grow in their relationship. Their own journeys to figuring out what life is all about for themselves and why we're in the game of love. Why we overthink money and health when they're actually pretty simple. How to apply the practice of love and how it can help you face your fears in real life. The power of being honest in your relationship to help it grow rather than using it to be cruel. Why you can't pursue love; you have to give love. How truth and honesty are ultimate forms of freedom. Why wellness and freedom are choices and how a choice can live in multiple categories. Power Quotes From The Show "What I learned the hard way when I went through my health crisis is that my body is my No. 1 asset. When you don't have your health, then the money, career, and possessions you own don't really matter; all you want is your health back. If we trade our health for wealth, what's the point? It all comes down to just realizing that love, our physical bodies, and our health are what's truly important because we use our bodies, health, love, and our hearts to experience life every day." - Krisstina Wise "Both Krisstina and I process our thoughts by talking to allow ourselves to think out loud. Our plans, next steps, what we want to learn and how we want to grow aren't really processed and solidified for either of us until we can talk about them. Who are you going to talk about them to if your partner isn't going through it with you? That's one of the powers of our relationship and one of the reasons why I've been able to grow so much faster since being in a relationship with her. It's all because I can talk things through with her and we do have the same appreciation for language, we have very similar backgrounds, and we can understand each other in a way that neither of us has ever been understood before." - Dr. Kirk Parsley "The real work is self-love first. That's where the work is. We have to learn how to love ourselves and until I had my breakthrough, I didn't love myself. I didn't feel loveable and I escaped myself through success and achievement. I had to completely break apart to be whole and love this person named Krisstina Wise. I love her but then that's not enough; I have to love me before I can love somebody else." - Krisstina Wise "We're so distracted going from one thing to the next and keeping ourselves busy and this is how we go around the fear. That's why plant medicine is so powerful; because it allows us to go straight to focusing on the fear. From a place of truth and love, we can face our fears." - Krisstina Wise "You can replace ego with fear because ego is a defense from fear. If I become angry, then I'm protecting myself from my own fear and I'm projecting that fear on somebody or something else. Anger is a form of bullshitting in which I'm lying to not only myself but others as well and I know it. If you're being egoic, then you're really being fearful and the only way to get past that fear is to not bullshit." - Dr. Kirk Parsley "When it comes to love and relationships, the fastest way to face fear is to be in an intimate relationship. This is the biggest mirror of our fears of abandonment, overwhelm, or not being good enough. The real-world practice of love is in relationships but we're out there searching for the next thing rather than being present and connected right now to one another." - Krisstina Wise What Others Are Saying About Wealthy | Wellthy Live Links From Today's Show WealthyWellthy Facebook YouTube Krisstina Wise Twitter Instagram LinkedIn Dr. Kirk Parsley Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn Wealthy | Wellthy Live Event WealthyWellthy Supplements Falling for Money by Krisstina Wise Wealthy Wellthy Wise Podcast Money Masterclass The Subtle Art Of Not Giving A F*ck by Mark Manson Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill Brendan Brouchard Tait Fletcher Tony Robbins WFR 055 Gay and Katie Hendricks WFR 125 Dr. Kirk Parsley About Dr. Kirk Parsley Doc Parsley served as an Undersea Medical Officer at Naval Special Warfare Group One. He is a former SEAL and served as Naval Special Warfare’s expert on Sleep Medicine. Doc’s philosophy is simple; in order to optimize our health and get the most out of our bodies and minds, we must live more closely to the way we evolved as a species. Many diseases and disorders that we accept as “inevitable” in modern society are unnecessary complications of poor sleeping habits, living in a toxic environment, eating foods we were not designed to digest, and allowing stress to overwhelm us. As a physician, Dr. Kirk Parsley has been indoctrinated to "standard of care" medicine. As a life-long athlete and former Navy SEAL he's been heavily involved in nutrition, exercise, mental toughness, coaching, and constant self-improvement. Dr. Kirk has researched, practiced, trained, proctored, and consulted with world leaders in alternative, eastern, western, holistic, and functional medicine. He’s also had the good fortune to become close colleagues and friends with the greatest minds in nutrition and exercise. He incorporates all of his life experience into his passion for helping people make immediate and profound shifts in their health and performance. His belief is that we can all improve (you don't have to be sick or broken to want to be better), and optimizing your health and performance is not as overwhelming as all of the misinformation would have people believe. You simply need the right team of experts with you, and the self-determination to do it.

The impact that traveling has had on Ted; especially being around the local people in both Thailand and Vietnam and what he has learned from their culture. How experiencing struggles or adversity in a group can really energetically bind us together. The rugged, individualism that's part of the American culture compared to the lifestyles, mindsets, and beliefs of other countries.  What it was like for Ted to live in Miami and why he personally felt so stuck and out of alignment living and working in that city as a personal trainer. Why Ted felt no fear when he left Miami for Asia but then experienced it when he went to Costa Rica for his Rythmia experience. How leaving Miami helped Ted find his freedom and live by his mission in life to connect with people. His path to Rythmia and why he hesitated to go there at first because he didn't want to bring back the past. Why it's so important to understand the medical and science side to take plant medicine for your own safety. The trauma and abuse he experienced as a child that has impacted his entire life. What scares and holds people back from doing real soul searching through inner work, talk therapy, or plant medicine. His experience, insight, and advice for those who are considering going to Rythmia. The importance of preparing both your body and mind for a state change. What thoughts and emotions came up for him during the plant medicine ceremonies at Rythmia. Josh's own experience with Ayahuasca during the plant medicine ceremonies at Rythmia. How you can grow on your own terms by taking what resonates with you and leave the rest behind. The rise of consciousness that is growing within modern society. Why selfishness and truly taking care of yourself can actually be a good thing for you in 2019. His stance on the importance of sharing content to express your truth and be authentic online rather than just be fishing for likes and comments. Power Quotes From The Show "When we are truly being authentic, we are not seeking attention, likes, or status. You won't see a state change in others if you're being inauthentic. Being selfish is one thing, being self-serving is another." - Ted Ryce "There's no need to quantify our emotions but for those who are searching for a way to do it, science can be something that leads them to a stage in life where they have more evidence showing the effectiveness of an emotional intelligence practice." - Ted Ryce "We try to use the power of our minds as we look for transformation through a book or a podcast. Sometimes a personal transformation can happen but far too often, even if we find clarity in someone's message, it still won't be a big enough state change because everyday life will eventually pull us out of it. Rather than taking that approach, I intuitively sought out certain activities that changed my state and the more I did them, the better I felt and the more they changed me as a person." - Ted Ryce “When we’re truly being authentic on social media, we’re not seeking attention, likes, or status; we’re sharing so that other people get something from it. If you check-in and feel like what you’re sharing is making a difference, you will also see a state change in other people. If you don’t, then maybe you shared it from an inauthentic place. Being selfish is one thing, being self-serving is another.” - Ted Ryce "We all need to find what works for us and check-in internally rather than use research, randomized controlled studies, or a guru telling us what to do. We need to check in internally because only we have the answer and no one else. Everyone else is just a guide or giving some suggestions that could be good or bad but only you have the true answer."  - Ted Ryce Links From Today's Show Ted Ryce Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube WFR 176 Ted Ryce: How To Deal With Stress & Overwhelm WFR 099 Ted Ryce: Eat, Sleep, And Move Your Way To Legendary Health WFR 049 Ted Ryce: Your Guide To Live A Legendary Life Legendary Life Podcast Rythmia Life Advancement Center Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) Michael Pollan Tried A Series Of Psychedelic Drugs...

About The 1% Rule Click here to buy your own copy of The 1% Ruly by Tommy Baker In a highlight reel, microwave world — you're led to believe success is right around the corner: It's not working. Not only is it not working with your ability to achieve your goals, but we've also never been more frustrated, stuck, stressed and unfulfilled. Most personal development is all about the big and bold vision, yet these days we're not missing ambition or dreamers... We're missing results and execution. But what if there was a way to shut off the noise, fall in love with the process and take one step forward every single day as you paint your life's masterpiece? Enter The 1% Rule — a daily system designed to help you close the gap without the crushing pressure that has kept you stuck in the past. The 1% Rule was designed to answer three core questions: Why do some people seem to achieve massive success with everything they do — while others can't seem to get out of their own way? What separates those who get excited and inspired for a season, a quarter or a few months — and those who are consistently on fire? What are the mindsets, principles, routines, and behaviors of those who execute daily, and those who sit on the sidelines pondering? ...through answering these questions over the last decade in the trenches with thousands of people — they are now the framework of The 1% Rule and are yours today. "All transformation is emotional. Whether you want to lose ten pounds or grow your business, you're going to have that emotional battle that comes with change and getting uncomfortable." - Tommy Baker     Listen To Episode 254 As Tommy Baker Uncovers: What the 1% rule actually is and his mission to share it with the world to help you win the day. Why the constant hustle and bustle isn't even doing you any good by creating constant overwhelm. His experience in a float tank and how it allowed him to explore his thoughts and eventually change his life. How he let go of everything in his life to up and move out west to Arizona for a new pace and environment. The power of not getting caught up in thinking 'how' you're going to make something happen. What the Japanese philosophy of Kaizen is all about and how it relates to the 1%. Why you can't make the most out of life transformations without being focused on small developments that can help you build a foundation. Why he focuses on purpose, attention, and action rather than 'hustle' when he wakes up every day at 4 AM. How he began to lean into his own emotions and feel each feeling for greater emotional intelligence. His experience working with entrepreneurs and helping them navigate their dark emotions, lack of something missing in their lives, and thoughts of self-hate for greater inner peace. How getting radically honest with yourself without judgment will open new doors. One of his own biggest breakdowns that allowed him to have the breakthrough he needed. How one of his greatest breakthroughs came from finally surrendering which then allowed him to heal from his illness. The steps you can take to embrace all of the emotions you feel, the breakdowns you experience, and your individual wellness journey. How you can practice surrender and letting go on a daily basis. A deep look into the biology and energetics of the law of attraction. Why both failure and success can equally crumble you if you don't do the emotional inner work. Power Quotes From The Show "So many breakthroughs come during breakdowns because that's when the band-aid is ripped off and we're actually willing to take an honest look at ourselves. That's when change happens." - Tommy Baker "We can grasp all of the answers we need in the moments of silence and where our inspiration lies. Anywhere in which you feel a pull, there are your answers. If you give yourself enough space, all of the answers you need will come up. All of the distraction, noise, and stimulus you face elsewhere is just blocking the answers but if you dig deep, you can get them back." - Tommy Baker "Ultimately, emotions can be used in one of two ways: to create or to destroy. If we don't understand our emotions, we become lost and often take the destructive route through bad habits that destroy our bodies or relationships. Getting to know oneself is a beautiful journey and you have to be okay with these "negative emotions" which aren't even negative emotions. If we have the courage to dig deep enough into the dark, there's always going to be something in there like a moment of clarity or new opportunity that we never noticed saw before." - Tommy Baker "A lot of people talk about unconditional love with others but what about unconditional love with ourselves? Are we willing to face ourselves with these dark emotions and not judge ourselves or feel guilty but just be a witness to them and appreciate ourselves despite our flaws?" - Tommy Baker   Links From Today's Show Tommy Baker Facebook Twitter Instagram Resist Average Academy Facebook Instagram YouTube Resist Average Academy Podcast UnResolution The 1% Rule The Leap of Your Life by Tommy Baker | Pre-Order Now Tommy Baker - Influencive Blogs Self-Resilience | essay by Ralph Waldo Emerson Guided Abundance Meditation | Bob Proctor Dr. John DeMartini | The Law of Attraction Dr. John DeMartini Kaizen Alan Watts Zhuang Zhou Joseph Campbell Gary Vaynerchuk David Deida Dr. Joe Dispenza Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert WFR 055 Gay and Katie Hendricks About Tommy Baker Ever get excited and inspired by a bold vision -- then completely get lost on what to do next?

"Embracing your feminine side is not a weakness; it's just a different way for women to express themselves. As women, we can be powerful in a feminine way." - Dr. Brenda Walding  Sick of Being Sick - Dr. Brenda Walding   Listen To Episode 253 As Dr. Brenda Walding Uncovers: Why she chose to not go down the traditional path of chemotherapy and radiation to heal her breast cancer but decided to try natural medicine instead. The importance of being in a good environment in order to heal the body, mind, and soul. Benefits of forest bathing and essential oils to help improve your health and mindset. What it was like to grow up with her father being in the military, need the emotional support that she lacked, and have the inner struggles she faced while trying to achieve a full life.

They're meant to be fluid so that when we embrace and feel them, they move through us. They don't get stuck unless we don't allow ourselves to feel them." - Dr. Brenda Walding "A lot of my healing process focused on embracing the feminine energy by dropping into my heart and feeling my feelings. Instead of being this charging athlete, I turned towards learning how to flow and dance with music. That started to wake up this creative, feminine energy within me that I had not known before. It felt so good to begin to be aware of my feminine power. There is power in this feminine way of being and it's not a weakness; it's just a different way for women to express themselves. As women, we're not meant to express ourselves and be powerful in a masculine way; we can be powerful in a feminine way."  - Dr. Brenda Walding "I had this sense that I was ill because there was something wrong with me or I wasn't worthy of God's love but the more I read and did the inner work, I realized something. The God that is love does not punish or create disease and that fundamental belief that somehow I deserve to be punished was blocking my healing. So, switching to thinking about how this power that created me, the cosmos, these beautiful sunsets, and this extraordinary world is also within me helped me to become more open to experiencing and receiving this healing." - Dr. Brenda Walding  "If we can begin to open or shift our perception that disease is potentially this divine opportunity and this catalyst for radical growth and transformation, we can really go in and remove all that isn't us and awaken to the truth of who we really are." - Dr. Brenda Walding  "We all have this deep desire to live our best life and feel peace, happiness, purpose, passion, and connection but the only way to experience our optimal life is to feel. Part of the human experience is this symphony of emotions from happiness and joy to sadness and anger. Embracing all of these contrasting emotions is what it means to be human. So, give yourself permission to feel those feelings. Feel each feeling and love what you feel. No matter what it is, love that feeling." - Dr. Brenda Walding   Links From Today's Show Dr. Brenda Walding Facebook Instagram Email at risetoradiance@gmail.com  NativePath Facebook Twitter  Instagram Sick of Being Sick by Dr. Brenda Walding The Anti-Inflammatory Diet Guide by Dr. Chad Walding and Dr. Brenda Walding Well Being Journal Doctor's Guide to Wild Oregano Oil - 101 Uses - Cass Ingram The Cure Is In The Cupboard by Dr. Cass Ingram Marianne Williamson Feelings Buried Alive Never Die by Karol K.

When you do that, you're making an active choice to not show up and be the best version of yourself that you can be." - Harpreet Rai     Listen To Episode 252 As Harpreet Rai Uncovers: How Oura is helping people with their weight loss progress through tracking and teaching them about their sleep status. The guilt he first faced when leaving work to go exercise and how he got over that feeling. The three barriers we face that keep us from focusing on our health: time, money, and guilt. How the Oura ring acts as a mirror of mindfulness to help us keep showing up in life. The alarming amount of Americans that are currently taking medication for sleep How social media, smartphones, and even Netflix are amplifying our stress and anxiety which then leads us to poor sleeping habits. The little amount of sleep he was getting a night at 4 hours while being an investment banker and how that led to gaining a pound each week. The importance of starting our day at the exact same time every morning and being exposed to sunlight throughout the day. How self-monitoring our sleep patterns can be just what we need to help change our behavior and habits. The wellness journey of one Oura ring user and how cutting out the 4 o'clock coffee helped him go back to a normal sleep cycle. The latency feature of the Oura ring that tells you how long it takes you to fall asleep and why you shouldn't be falling asleep right away. How breath is integrated into Oura and the technology aspect with the respiration rate. Why they chose a ring as their product from both a comfort and accuracy standpoint. Why no single wearable is 100% accurate but the most important thing to consider is precision in the day to day data. How they've designed the Oura ring to be very accurate in its precision to help the individual track their sleep and health. Results Oura users have seen reflected in their data when they've made changes to create a better sleeping atmosphere. How the 5 senses change when we're sleeping and how to create your best night's sleep experience. The benefits of relaxing and stretching before bed that we don't normally consider. How Oura can lead the charge in conversations about personal development through the use of mindfulness and wellness technology. Power Quotes From The Show "If you don't measure something, how does it get mastered? But is sleep the be all end all? No; I think there are so many things we need to do to be great humans and sleep is a great place to start." - Harpreet Rai "Addiction to our phones and social media has completely amplified our poor sleeping habits. Our stress and anxiety are leading to poor nutrition and weight gain. We can't sleep well if we're being pulled in different directions by every notification that pops up on our phones." - Harpreet Rai "When people start to see personal data that pertains to themselves, they begin to question those findings. You might ask yourself, 'Why am I not getting any deep sleep?' and then you seek answers from other Oura users, podcasts, or books. Once you just start to see the data becoming personal, you'll start to reflect, change habits, and notice patterns." - Harpreet Rai "If you rewind thirty or forty years ago and before the Internet, we probably used to be able to naturally tell whether or not we got a good's night rest and feel the difference. We used to feel and think about our sleeping patterns a lot more but now we're so distracted and I don't think we have time to feel. Now that we're busier than ever, it's harder for us to take the time to concentrate on what our bodies are telling us and therefore, tracking makes more sense now than it ever did before. Tracking holds you accountable as you start to look at the data and ask yourself simple questions that can lead to lifestyle changes." - Harpreet Rai "If you don't measure something, how does it get mastered? But is sleep the be all end all? No; I think there are so many things we need to do to be great humans and sleep is a great place to start. If you don't sleep properly, it's probably going to be harder to eat better, exercise more, and just be a good human being.

For episode 251, we spotlight 8 of our favorite moments over 2018, to pull the gems of wisdom, moments of laughter, and the real-life action steps that I've learned to both trust and believe in. I want to share my truth: This entrepreneurial and podcast path has not been 100% rainbows. Even since early childhood, I have known, deep down, that I march to the beat of a different drummer. Maybe you feel that too, and that’s why you’re here. I’ve faced inner and outer demons I wouldn’t wish on anyone, and since I began to wake up in 2012, I’ve done some deep work to let go of old stories about genetics, beliefs, and the people and things that don't serve my wellness. But yet as hard as this has been, I’ve also learned that when you operate from a place of love and service to others, and if you really want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it. This podcast has been my life since 2015, and today, I get to give thanks to YOU! 2018's Top 8 Wellness Force Dr. Cortney Warren In episode 177, Clinical Psychologist, Researcher, TEDx Talk Speaker, and Author of Lies We Tell Ourselves: The Psychology of Self-Deception, Dr. Cortney Warren, dives into how you can transform your life while experiencing trauma, misery, and self-doubt.

In this next clip from episode 219, retired American professional mixed martial artist and now Director of Human Optimization at Onnit, Kyle Kingsbury, reveals that it's okay and necessary to set healthy boundaries when you truly need it in order to let go of those pent-up thoughts and emotions so that they can no longer consume your energy.  As you listen, you'll discover how you can satisfy the need for ‘more' based on what makes you feel good, whole, and happy.   Aubrey Marcus  In episode 196, CEO of Onnit and the author of Own The Day, Own Your Life, Aubrey Marcus, reminds us that we have the power to move on from the past. We were not the same people that we were before and we don’t have to allow our past to define and label us.

(Full Rules Here)  More About The Book The bestselling author of Head Strong and The Bulletproof Diet answers the question, “How can I kick more ass at life?” by culling the wisdom of world-class thought leaders, maverick scientists, and disruptive entrepreneurs to provide proven techniques for becoming happier, healthier, and smarter. When Dave Asprey started his Bulletproof Radio podcast more than five years ago, he sought out influencers in an array of disciplines, from biochemists toiling in unknown laboratories to business leaders changing the world to meditation masters discovering inner peace. His guests were some of the top performing humans in the world, people who had changed their areas of study or even pioneered entirely new fields. Dave wanted to know: What did they have in common? What mattered most to them? What made them so successful—and what made them tick? At the end of each interview, Dave asked the same question: “What are your top three recommendations for people who want to perform better at being human?” After performing a statistical analysis of the answers, he found that the wisdom gleaned from these highly successful people could be distilled into three main objectives: finding ways to become smarter, faster, and happier. Game Changers is the culmination of Dave’s years-long immersion in these conversations, offering 46 science-backed, high performance “laws” that are a virtual playbook for how to get better at life. "Emotional intelligence is hackable and you do have to do the work but maybe you can do the work more effectively. There can be a fast path instead of a slow one." - Dave Asprey   GAME CHANGERS GIFT GIVEAWAYS What works for the game changers in this book, can work for you!

Listen To Episode 250 As Dave Asprey Uncovers: The various health struggles he has faced in his life and how biohacking helped him find the answers he sought. His program, 40 Years of Zen, and the fast-paced meditation benefits you can get from participating in it. Why he wrote, Game Changers, in order to answer the question, 'What are the three most important pieces of advice for someone who wants to perform better at everything they do as a human being?' How he came to discover the 46 Laws for High Performance after interviewing hundreds of people. Why it's impossible to actually be able to complete every single personal development practice in this lifetime and that's okay. His documentary, Moldy Movie, about how there are over 100 million homes in the US with toxic mold which are leading to disease. How early trauma including what happens while we're in the womb can affect our personality and fear response as an adult. The power of gratitude and how it can help us rewire the brain, stop the negative voice in our head and let go of shame. His own gratitude practice and how he lets go of the negative voice in his head. How EMDR is an effective tool for therapy and resetting old patterns. The common thread and patterns of emotional intelligence and intuition that Dave discovered in these high performers during the interviews he conducted for Game Changers. Why he titled the law, Eat Like Your Grandma, rather than title it with the common Paleo phrase, Eat Like A Caveman. His definition of consciousness and how it relates to his work with Bulletproof. The role that the ego played for him at Bulletproof's beginnings compared to now years later. How you can step outside of yourself and look back with a different mindset to see what's actually going on. The orgasm hangover for men and how ejaculation sucks their energy so that they're much less likely to be loving, kind, and patient the day after compared to women who feel a higher sense of connection. The 4 Laws of Sex in Game Changers explained and how intimacy can lead to an altered state of mind. The laws and rules, "Money Doesn't Make You Happy" and "The Power of 'No." How he uses the power of 'no' to help him stay balanced and make decisions. His own most important three pieces of advice for someone who wants to perform better at everything they do as a human being.   Power Quotes From The Show "There's so much that we can do on this planet and I don't want to waste time getting to the next challenge. We're here to evolve as human beings." - Dave Asprey "Your body is a very powerful pattern matching system and it'll match patterns of threats long before you can think about them. You might feel at unease about something that triggers you and you don't even know why. Then you end up making a story about why you feel that way and the story probably isn't even true. Even worse, we beat ourselves up afterward for reacting to this made up story. The first thing to do to permanently let go of a trauma so that the pattern matching no longer matches the pattern is actually gratitude." - Dave Asprey "Consciousness is your ability to be aware of what's actually happening in the world around you instead of your story of what's going on. If you want to be conscious and you want to be free, you have to understand that the ego is part of this ancient bacteria operating system that keeps you alive. The ego isn't going to go away but if you let it drive instead of you, bad things will happen. At Bulletproof, we want to engage people's ego to then dissolve the ego." - Dave Asprey  "Having a sense of purpose, a mission, and knowing why you're here is a big challenge because if you don't know why you're here, it can be painful. When you're doing things that society, your parents, or trauma tells you that you're supposed to be doing but they're not fulfilling you, that's a pretty good sign that you don't know why you're here. I wish I could tell people really quickly how to know why you're here but it's going to take some work and really deep self-reflection such as journaling or meditation. When your purpose in life comes to you, it'll be really obvious and everything works. When you do other things that don't give you meaning, life sucks.  So, find that mission and know why you're here." - Dave Asprey  "Understand that so much of your decision making is an emergent phenomenon from ancient bacteria who think they're in charge. This probably comes from what's in your gut and the way it talks to the bacteria that run your power systems and your environmental sensing systems. If you understand that you are not the voice in your head, you just share a hardware with it, it's not you and it doesn't even share your best interest at heart, that can unlock so much consciousness, emotional intelligence, and even just the ability to show up, not in a big way, but just to dinner." - Dave Asprey    Links From Today's Show Dave Asprey Facebook Instagram Twitter LinkedIn Bulletproof Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube Game Changers by Dave Asprey  Bulletproof Radio with Dave Asprey Biohacker Meets Spirit Hacker: Shaman Durek #517 Bulletproof Upgrade Labs Bulletproof Cafés Head Strong by Dave Asprey The Bulletproof Diet by Dave Asprey Bulletproof Homebiotic 4 oz Concentrate Moldy The Movie – The New Bulletproof Documentary Bessel Van Der Kolk M.D. 40 Years of Zen How to Rewire Your Traumatized Brain Bruce Lipton | Epigenetics Gabby Bernstein Eric Kandel Jack Canfield Stan Grof Esther Perel John Gray Chapter 11 of Think Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill - Sex Transmutation WFR 046 Dr. John Gray About Dave Asprey Dave Asprey, the founder of Bulletproof and author of New York Times bestseller The Bulletproof Diet, is a Silicon Valley investor and technology entrepreneur who spent two decades and over $1 Million to hack his own biology.

Yoga understands that we are all divine beings and we are also a product of our imprinting. Yoga is designed to allow you to break free of those chains of your human conditioning."- Niraj Naik "Everything is divine and we choose to either tune into it or not. That choice comes from your level vibrational energy of L-O-V-E. The more love you have for yourself and others, the more connected you'll be to this divine energy." - Niraj Naik "Heavy emotions such as fear, anger, rage, rage, and guilt are what really binds us to the earth in a way that we end up in survival mode. Specifically, guilt is a really, really terrifying emotion to experience for a long period of time and it can just paralyze you. If we can change that emotional state without using drugs, antidepressants, or even having to resort to psychedelics and do it naturally through our own body instead, then we're getting somewhere. That's what I focused on through pranayama, yoga, and Ayurveda." - Niraj Naik "What is the best thing that the yogis have done for us? They taught us how to have an off switch for stress which is the breath and the exhale. By learning how to exhale properly, hold your breath, and control your breath, in certain ways, we actually learn how to control the entire physiology of our mind." - Niraj Naik "The exhaled breath is our off switch for stress. By learning how to control, hold,  and properly exhale our breath, we can actually discover how to manage the entire physiology of our mind." - Niraj Naik   Links From Today's Show Niraj Naik Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn SOMA Breath Facebook Community Instagram The Renegade Pharmacist Facebook YouTube The 21-Day Awakening Breath Protocol Program Scientific Explanation Of Soma Breath What Happens One Hour After Drinking a Can of Coke Niraj Naik – Healing with The Power of Breath 24 Questions with Niraj Naik Renegade Health Test: How healthy are you really?

Hawkins WFR 209 Jamie Wheal WFR 226 Paul Chek About Niraj Naik Niraj Naik is a qualified pharmacist who comes from a background of working long hours for several years as a community pharmacist.  Becoming a certified “legal drug dealer” at the ripe age of 24, he got to witness first-hand, many clients going home with shopping bags full of drugs each month, rarely getting better and usually going on to suffer from other diseases. He also learnt of the debilitating side effects of the prescription medication which drove many of the patients to have to take more and more drugs to ease the side effects. Curious to find ways to improve his own health he attended several health seminars and discovered an in-depth approach on how to reach optimum health and vitality by understanding the true origin of disease and how to prevent it. After experiencing great benefits with his own health, Niraj was motivated to devise a scheme to see if he could also help his suffering patients. He incorporates a lifestyle plan called his "healthy shopping lists' that includes simple food swaps, tools, and websites to support their specific condition. Niraj is now a professional musician, holistic health expert, and entrepreneur. He runs several successful websites that help others who suffer from stress-related, chronic diseases through his self-composed, captivating meditation music, and online courses.

What are you going to do in the fulfillment of your life to honor your family, traits, and what's possible by being one individual who rocks it?" - Lauren Handel Zander "You're stuck with yourself for the rest of your life. That inner dialogue of yours is your relationship to yourself. Do you like yourself when you look in the mirror? What are you saying to yourself? What do you think of other people? Where you are with yourself is basically the most important relationship you're having that then extends to all the other areas in your life." - Lauren Handel Zander "We naturally operate out of fear and we're afraid of people leaving us if we say or do the wrong thing. So, we lie to protect other people but really we're not checking in with ourselves about why our relationships with other people are the way that they are. Fear is the protection mechanism that's ruling us; not love." - Lauren Handel Zander "Most people, in their heart of hearts, know who they are but then they're corrupted by the family history that has been carried on through them. By stripping away all of the views and issues that have been passed onto you, you can have your own dream of what you want to fulfill on this planet." - Lauren Handel Zander   Links From Today's Show Lauren Handel Zander Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn Handel Group Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube LinkedIn Maybe It's You by Lauren Handel Zander InnerU.Coach The Handel Group Current Reality Quiz Complimentary 30-minute consultation with Handel Group A Little Magic Goes a Long Way Want a Radical Miracle in Your Life?

This pain point – the quitting itself – is often the barrier to change. Many avoid quitting because they fear the unknown. Will they find another career or relationship? Will their new path provide financial stability? Will friends and family question the decision to quit?  Will society see them as quitters? These questions generally go unaddressed. But that’s where Quitting by Design comes in – its sole focus is to help people through their quits successfully so they can proceed with their transformations. It’s a step-by-step guide that takes readers from deciding if there’s something they should quit all the way to preparing their health, finances, and relationships for a quiet, and it helps them conquer any fears that may pop up along the way. Dr. Lynn Marie Morski knows how to address fears and prepare your health, relationships, and finances for a quit because she's been there time and again. She has quit educational pursuits, jobs, careers, relationships, political parties...you name it; she's found a way to quit it while maximizing the benefits and minimizing the challenges associated with major life changes. And she wants nothing more than to pass these skills along to you.   With this book, Dr. Morski aims to pass on what she's learned about quitting not only from her own experiences but also through interviews with others who have made successful quits themselves. She tackles the stigma surrounding quitting while highlighting what a useful and necessary tool it can be in carving out a life you enjoy.   Listen To Episode 247 As Dr. Lynn Marie Morski Uncovers: Her journey as a "lifelong quitter" from going to a physician to an attorney to a law professor. The connection between mental and physical health when it comes to feeling shame. Steps we can take to just stop being so serious all the time. Why our fear of the unknown makes it so hard to quit when it comes to moving on with our health, wealth, and relationships. How to get over the anxiety of what other people think of our quit when we want to make a life change. Why money is the number one reason why people don't embrace the quit. How to test out your quit in your mind to see how it feels long before you actually take action. Why she's against the idea that everything happens for a reason but doesn't have any regrets because they've all led her to this very moment in her life. The signs that it's time for a quit and how to recognize them. What to do if your inner circle is not on board with your strategic quit and fresh start. How to get out of the mindset that "quitters" never win and you have to fake it to make it. Why sharing your quits with other people can help other people with their own strategic quits. The stigmas around quitting and why society has leaned towards this narrative of shaming people for making drastic life changes. Journaling practice for strategic quitting and discovering where you need to make a life change.  How to prepare your health for a quit via insurance and hospital check-up visits. Wellness practices you should get in order before you make the strategic quit actually happen. Steps you can take to quit an "identity" and create a new one that truly fits who you want to be. Diversification of identity: why we aren't just one thing but many parts within our own identity. How quitting can actually be a generous act for not only yourself but other people too. Her 3 physical practices that can help you get clear about whether or else you need a strategic quit. Power Quotes From The Show "'QUIT until the life you want is yours." - Dr. Lynn Marie Morski "If you're quitting something that may seem like a dream job to others or feel this societal pressure to not quit, you have to stop and realize that the people who are going to judge you aren't you. They're not in your shoes, they're not in your head, and they're not living your life. You're the one who has to live your life; why should you let what somebody else's thoughts of you shape your existence?" - Lynn Marie Morski "Does your boss want an employee who's constantly looking for a way out? No. Do other people a favor by quitting. Quitting is actually a generous act at some point because they should want somebody in that position who wants to be in that position. If you're forcing yourself to be in this job, you're actually doing them a disservice and there's an opportunity cost for both you and them." - Lynn Marie Morski "As a society, we're avoiding putting ourselves out there. We need to quit this facade, quit the mask, and quit this external game. Social media has made it so much worse and is doing the opposite of what it should be doing." - Lynn Marie Morski   Links From Today's Show Dr. Lynn Marie Morski Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube LinkedIn Quitting by Design by Dr. Lynn Marie Morski Quit Happens Podcast So Full of Quit!

It's not necessarily food that's leading to obesity. It's what's inside our food, what's wrapped around our food, and even what we're cooking our food on that's creating this epidemic.- Dr. David Friedman ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

In Wellness Force Radio episode 246, Doctor of Naturopathy, Clinical Nutritionist, Chiropractic Neurologist, and author of Food Sanity, Dr. David Friedman, shares why obesogens and not food may be the culprit for our gut health issues, simple remedies to keep hazardous foods and unsafe plastics out of your life, and how to follow the nutrition guideline of, "If it's white, keep it out of sight." Discover why obesogens like pesticides, chemicals, and Monsanto can be the cause of obesity, gluten sensitivity, and digestion problems instead of solely food itself. "Food controls the essence of who we are and has the power to either heal or harm. When we alter our nutrition, our health can be improved in a matter of days. Food is medicine." - @drdavidfriedman  Food Sanity Click here to get your own copy of Food Sanity by Dr. David Friedman During his 25 years as a holistic practitioner and health expert on syndicated TV and radio, Dr. David Friedman has interviewed hundreds of world-renowned doctors and bestselling authors. From proponents of a Vegan, Paleo, Mediterranean Diet to a Gluten Free and Low Carb Diet, the opinions are as different as night and day. After becoming frustrated with all the conflicting research and opinions, Dr. Friedman wrote Food Sanity, which explores all the fads, facts and fiction. Using a common science meets common sense approach, this groundbreaking book finally answers the big question: WHAT THE HECK ARE WE SUPPOSED TO EAT?!! Readers will discover never-before-heard nutritional and dieting advice that will ensure they get the maximum benefits from their food and dietary supplements. Food Sanity offers a definitive blueprint on how to eat in the unhealthiest developed country in the world... the good ole USA.   Listen To Episode 246 As Dr. David Friedman Uncovers: Why we should follow the saying, "If it's white, keep it out of sight," and avoid processed foods including flour, sugar, milk, salt, or corn-based foods etc. to help balance our blood sugar, increase energy, lose weight, and sleep better. The list of white natural, unprocessed foods that are okay to eat such as cauliflower, garlic, mushrooms, bananas, white fish, and white poultry meat. How he lost the extra 15 pounds he had by deciding to take out organic, USDA approved popcorn from his nightly routine. What obesogens are and how they're the culprits that are wreaking havoc on our digestion and causing all sorts of stomach issues like leaky gut and inflammation. How genetics comes into play with our ability to digest certain foods and keeping our hormones in check. Other precautions we should make besides avoiding processed foods, chemicals, and certain cookware. Simple remedies for removing harmful plastics from your life that could be in your shower curtains, receipts, and skincare or beauty products. The importance of avoiding plastics with the recycling code 3 and 7 and instead look for plastic coding with either 1, 2, or 5. Why the label "microwave safe" doesn't mean it's actually safe for you and you should never microwave plastic. Why it truly matters to eat free-range, grass-fed, organic meat to avoid toxins and hormones. The importance of looking for supplements with the label, "Certified GMP" and avoiding the label, "GMP Methods Are Used" to know that it's been audited, checked, and it's a legit product. His interest in being a chiropractic and how that led him to study neurology, naturopathy, and nutrition as well.  Why there was a fight between medical doctors and chiropractic practitioners that has improved but is still going on today.  How connecting to a higher power can be a sustainable tool for weight loss for life. The actual amount of calcium and magnesium that is found in milk compared to better sources like plant milk including almond, hemp, and coconut milk. Why it's possible that you're more likely to develop colon cancer by eating red meat and where to find better meat alternatives such as bison. Milk alternatives such as cashew, almond, hemp, and coconut milk that many different diets from Paleo and Keto to Vegan and Vegetarian can all agree on. Whether or not there's a problem with using coconut products. Why we should eat slower for the sake of our body's health, to lose weight, digest better, and actually enjoy the food. Power Quotes From The Show "Eat until you're satisfied; not full. You should eat until you're satisfied and eventually that level of satisfaction becomes your fullness as your body gets used to that amount of food." - @drdavidfriedman  "Let's face it, we didn't have this problem with gluten sensitivity and digestive problems 20, 30, 40, or 50 years ago. I don't blame food; I blame something called obesogens and these are chemicals that are actually found inside of our food, wrapped around our food, and sometimes even in the cookware that we cook our food on. These obesogens wreak havoc on our digestive system and make us unable to digest these foods which lead to inflammation and leaky gut. We can pinpoint starches and flours and blame them but it's really our inability to digest a lot of these foods. How could people eat a pizza 50 years ago and be fine with gluten? Now it seems to be such an issue and you can't blame gluten; it's the chemicals." - Dr. David Friedman  "You can't blame your genes for why you can't fit into your jeans. Unless you are in the rare 3% of the population in which high blood pressure and being overweight runs in the family, you have to take control and stop blaming your ancestors. Of course, there are diseases that are genetic but I don't think our DNA is to blame when it comes down to food sensitivities. Our great-great-grandparents didn't have those issues with gluten nor faced this obesity and diabetes epidemics that are now happening." - Dr. David Friedman "We know the saying, 'You are what you eat,' but you are also what your meat eats and this includes the hormones used to increase the weight of cattle. So, when you eat the cattle, these same substances can increase your weight. Not only are hormones in meat production a contributing factor to our obesity issue but the antibiotics found in chicken to make them larger are fattening us up too." - Dr. David Friedman "I think our connection with food all begins in the mind. If you have a little bit of candy, don't beat yourself up about it and just give up on your nutrition goals. A lot of our food cravings are based on our mindset but they're also stress related. People will use food as a stress reliever and their best friends, Ben and Jerry, to give them comfort. If they can realize that food is not their antidepressant but fuel for their body, then they can ease into letting go of those unhealthy cravings in the beginning process of losing weight. They'll feel better, be less depressed, have more energy, improve their blood sugar, and sleep better because they will have fed their bodies with good nutrition. If you can make it through the first 21 days, then that last week will be easy." - Dr. David Friedman Links From Today's Show Dr. David Friedman Facebook Twitter LinkedIn YouTube Food Sanity by Dr. David Friedman A Cup of Coffee with 10 Leading Chiropractors in the United States by Dr. David Friedman Dr. David Friedman’s “To Your Good Health Radio” Chew On This Podcast 9 Foods That Are High in Resistant Starch The Sneaky Culprit Preventing Weight Loss Healing Power of Food Summit 23andMe Jack Canfield Bayer Just Bought Monsanto, Here's Why You Should Care WFR 226 Paul Chek WFR 236 Dr. Michael Ruscio About Dr. David Friedman Dr. David Friedman is an award-winning,  #1 national best-selling author, Doctor of Naturopathy, Clinical Nutritionist and Chiropractic Neurologist.

How we can go with the flow when unexpected events come up in life. What guidance he was missing in high school that led him to leave in order to pursue more from life as an entrepreneur. Why the ultimate resource we have is being able to be resourceful on our own. The pros and cons of the modern education system in this century. The path he went on to become successful through personal growth and entrepreneurship. Why knowing one thing but doing another are completely different and you have to apply what you've learned to really see results.

Our brain's chemistry connection to our physical sensations and how that applies to negative or positive thinking.

His book, The Inside Track, and what he witnessed and experienced while spending 6 months in one of the toughest jails in the UK, Pentonville, and how that was his 'graduation event'.

How anyone is capable of reinventing themselves in order to reach their full potential. What it truly means to surrender from a higher power of vibration. Power Quotes From The Show "'The difference between freedom and liberty is that freedom is a state of mind and the only thing that can be reduced is your liberty. No one can take away your freedom.' - @PeterSage007" "An entrepreneur is simply being independent. Do you rely on something or someone else in order to get what you need to move forward or are you able to create that? That's the essence of an entrepreneur whether they're a parent, mother, or a business owner." - Peter Sage "Depending on where your progress is at, the word, "surrender" will come into play at different levels of meaning. If you're in a lower vibrational aspect or state of consciousness, you're going to hear the word, "surrender" from a place of acquiesce or giving up and being dominated.  If you're coming from a place of power and you're swimming with the river of life rather than against it, then you can come from a place of surrendering in which you're allowing for yourself to be taken from something that's greater than you because you're putting your trust in the universe or whatever you believe in." - Peter Sage "The biggest challenge with money when it comes to the frustration and feeling wounded by it can be narrowed down to one false belief that our net worth is tied to our self-worth because the greatest fear we have as human beings is that we're not enough. Money is nothing more than a way that we perceive value. Most people will compromise their values around money faster than anything else to avoid the fear that they're not enough." - Peter Sage Links From Today's Show Peter Sage Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube The Inside Track by Peter Sage Peter Sage: Keeping It Real Behind Bars Peter Sage's Top 10 Rules For Success Peter Sage - How To Stop Thinking Negative Thoughts Team Sage – Our 2020 Vision Peter Sage - Lessons From My Skiing Accident Motivation vs Inspiration Steve Jobs Connect the Dots Quote Tony Robbins Wallace Wattles Napoleon Hill Michael Pollan Marathon des Sables WFR 226 Paul Chek WFR 236 Dr. Michael Ruscio About Peter Sage Peter Sage is a well known international & serial entrepreneur, author, philosopher, and teacher.

For inner strength, you can't just steamroll emotions. You have to deal with them, but first, you must also want to do the work.

"Having everything all together all the time isn't actually a good thing because if you're used to that, then you don't jump into spaces where you don't have it all together." - @DouglasELarson on @WellnessForce Radio The Shrugged Collective The Shrugged Collective is a network of fitness, health and performance show that help people achieve their physical and mental health goals. Usually in the gym, but outside as well. In 2012 they posted their first Barbell Shrugged podcast and have been putting out weekly free videos and podcasts ever since.   This series of podcasts stars Mike Bledsoe, Doug Larson, Anders Varner, and The Shrugged Collective Team.   Listen As Anders Varner and Doug Larson Uncover: The origins of Barbell Shrugged and how they pulled their team together to launch it. How their views on life, business, and balancing work have changed since starting their families. Different phases of life that we go through including the moment we decide we want to live a healthier life. What it is like raising children today in our modern society compared to how life was like for us growing up. How we can build resiliency through physical exercise and movement. Why the right person to be in a relationship with will come along in our lives when we're being true and authentic to ourselves. Josh's bout of altitude sickness while climbing up Mount Whitney. The power of being honest and authentic with both yourself and other people. What Wellness Force is all about and what direction it's now going in. Why it helps to work with females who have a strong personality and how women can tap into that. Whether it is the ego that's what makes us successful or it's a combination of both the ego and the soul. Why we have to really want something such as meditation, strength training, or just being healthy to truly put the work into it. How the emotional intelligence piece of our lives is actually the growing piece of our entire story. Why sometimes we just have to be still and patient to see what the next step in our lives will be. Why having it together all the time can actually be a disadvantage. Everyone isn't perfect at everything and it's okay to admit that you're not good at something. Whether or not personality tests are actually legit for a person to know more about themselves. Communicating with people who are very agreeable vs disagreeable. What direction Barbell Shrugged is going with their podcast and their plans for the future. Power Quotes From The Show "You can't just steamroll the emotions that you're feeling; you have to go deal with them but you have to want to deal with them. You have to want to slow down and learn about meditation, breathwork, emotions, and vulnerability." - @AndersVarner on @WellnessForce Radio "Do you think that the more emotionally in touch us males are with ourselves, the more we lose the ego and masculinity that may make us special? Especially in this bubble where everyone is working on their own personal development which Paul Chek calls the warrior phase, we believe we've been wrong about ourselves this entire time and now we have to get in touch with ourselves. We've all had this ego that we've been listening to for a long time but you don't have to pay 100% attention to the alpha-driven ego and lose your masculinity." - Anders Varner "In every decision that you make in life, there are positive and negative drivers of those decisions. If you're true to yourself and respectful of others, the more likely you'll be making decisions for positive reasons rather than from the ego and out of fear, frustration, or anger." - Doug Larson "The theme of emotional intelligence is really the story of our lives. We could go through life talking about all of our achievements and rewards but there's no good story to them until you start at the beginning of them all. Then, you can see where you started from, how you worked hard for it, your obstacles, and what you learned from the entire process. The emotional intelligence is the growing piece of the entire story." - Anders Varner "Getting fired is the greatest gift that anyone could ever give you. Every time you say goodbye to a job, business, or even relationship, you get to fill that space with something wildly more positive and sets the trajectory so much higher in your career, life, and friendships. Getting fired hurts a lot but everything just gets better from there, you'll move past it, and it'll bring a lot of value to your life in the end." - Doug Larson and Anders Varner Links From Today's Show Anders Varner Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Doug Larson Facebook Instagram YouTube About Anders Varner A San Diego-based movement specialist with more than twenty years of training and coaching experience, Anders Varner is the co-founder of The Low Back Fix.

Power Quotes From The Show ]"A break up is a heart issue that has to heal on its own terms. Breakups can feel devastating. Part of healing the heart on its terms is to honor its feelings, give it space, and release its emotions." - @cristabeck on @wellnessforce Radio episode 244 wellnessforce.com/244 "When a woman is centered and powerful in herself, she can deeply contribute to a man from her own love radar. This is her place of wisdom and intuition. Not only will a woman's love radar enrich a man's life but it will also allow them to come closer to a woman so that she feels safe and adored." - Crista Beck "#MeToo is really a chance for women to express the pain that they've been repressing for years of being mistreated by men. It's a beautiful thing that women are sharing their stories and uniting in this mission to not be mistreated anymore. It's an important part of the process to be able to express your pain or anger because it's part of the healing process." - Crista Beck "I understand that people want connection but you cannot base your decision of who you want to be with solely on whether or not you feel a spark on the first date. Choosing your life partner is the most powerful decision that you will make in your life. We as a society are not trained on how to do that and so there's a lot of confusion on how to choose someone. Choosing someone just based on physical chemistry is a recipe for disaster. Yes, you want to be attracted to them but you want to be grounded and consider the actual characteristics that you know you need and want in a long-term partner." - Crista Beck "Our society encourages people to just get back out there and start dating again after a breakup. People don't realize that this is a heart issue on its terms. You need to honor your heart just like you would treat your body and mind after an accident. Breakups can feel devastating as if you broke all the bones in your body. Part of healing the heart on its terms is to honor its feelings, give it space, and release those emotions." - Crista Beck   Links From Today's Show Crista Beck Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube Google+ LinkedIn Call with Crista - Your Laser "Find Love" Discovery Session Your Dating Compass™ — What It Is And Why You Need One Beware the Fairytale: "He's Not My Type" "2 Ways To Stop Sabotaging Your Love Life For Good” Katherine Woodward Thomas Gigi Sage Power Connections for Women by Gigi Sage Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill Rhythmia Spiritual Retreat Center: Yoga & Meditation WFR 157 Amy Baglan WFR 204 Robyn Openshaw WFR 208 Maddy Moon About Crista Beck Crista Beck, The Love Radar, is a dating expert who teaches single people who are seeking a healthy and long-term relationship how to attract quality dating partners, increase their confidence, and take the actions necessary to have the love they deeply desire.

Emotions are an essential part of our human design. Ignoring, denying, or feeling shame about having them will only weigh you down with emotional obesity.

JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST    On Wellness Force Radio episode 243, author of, Emotional Obesity, and host of the podcast, The Art of Authenticity, Laura Coe, reveals how to build a great life one authentic decision at a time, the power of speaking your truth even though you might be afraid to do it, and what steps we can take to discover, navigate, and understand our emotions. Discover how to enlighten your life by letting go of the emotional weight, discovering your truth, and living an authentic life. "People have this idea that having emotions means there's something wrong with them. There's nothing wrong with us; it's just how we're designed as humans. Accept, examine, and then let your feelings go." - @laurascoe on @WellnessForce Radio episode 243 wellnessforce.com/243   Click here to get your copy of Emotional Obesity by Laura Coe Every year, we spend millions of dollars on healthcare and beauty systems. Our days begin with teeth brushing, hair combing, and perhaps even exercise. Even if there are still many who need persuading or incentivizing towards participating in such routines, there is a general consensus that these self-care rituals are good for us. But when it comes to our emotional health, we are taught from a young age to “get over” our feelings, and yet, in reality, most of us just stockpile them, carrying their weight throughout life. Even though we are not conscious of them, the feelings are weighing us down from the life we want to live. The messages they create—of not being good enough, not worthy, undeserving–become the guiding principles of our lives. Our goal is to become aware of our feelings. Then subscribe to the habit of daily rituals for our emotional health, just as we have for our physical health. By doing this we can free ourselves from the destructive and unresolved feelings of the unconscious mind and begin to direct our lives from our authentic self where our true passions and desires reside.   Listen To Episode 243 As Laura Coe Uncovers: What society says about both men and women sharing their emotions plus what we can do to change that narrative. How emotional obesity is keeping us from living an authentic life that we live. What factors are piling on the stress and negative emotions we're experiencing as a society day to day in the USA. Why people feel like they're going crazy when they're just experiencing natural, human feelings. Emotional fitness and her guided exercise to help you grow your emotional strength. The moment she started her own emotional wellness journey after she sold her healthcare company and began seeking for something more authentic. Why success is path but purpose and fulfillment are so much more meaningful to us. First steps you can take to really get an inventory of what you're feeling and how to digest those emotions to find your purpose. How she helps people find and confront the fears that are holding them back from discovering their purpose. How to start being honest and authentic with yourself by asking simple questions like, "What do I really want? Do I want tea or coffee right now?" Anger and shame - how they let us know that something has triggered us so that we can learn more about why it bothered us so much. Emotional weight loss and how you can be more present with your body through this process. How to let your truth unfold and let go of the fear of change. Why your gut feelings might actually be a false sense that's keeping you from listening to your authentic self. How she listened to her own authentic self that warned her against doing business with a specific agent for her book because he wasn't right for her. Why your authentic self is presented to the world based on the choices you make every day. Why you don't have to rush into action but can go at your own pace and be genuine with each step you make. How we can let technology not get in the way of our health by being aware of how we use and interact with it. Power Quotes From The Show "Don't let emotions weigh you down. Instead, you have to get curious about yourself and accept that there's nothing right or wrong about feelings; they're just they're interesting pieces information." - @laurascoe on @WellnessForce Radio episode 243 wellnessforce.com/243 "We're aware of the impact that food has on our body but when it comes to our thoughts, we don't really consider how they impact our lives. What do you feel when you think of your outlook and perspective of the world, life, and yourself? Do they weigh you down? How can we get to a place where our thoughts don't feel heavy but instead we feel light, free, and content?" - Laura Coe "There's a tipping point where we become overly focused on the external world, people and their thoughts, other's approvals, and even our own thoughts. That's when we lose touch with that deep connection with our authentic self. These barriers of thoughts, knowledge, and focus on the outside world block us from focusing on ourselves and our internal compass and inner truth." - Laura Coe "This idea that the feelings we're having are somehow right or wrong is false. People often think having emotions means there's something wrong with them when what we feel is completely normal. Then, they feel amazed that they actually have all these emotions they're feeling. So, with each strong emotion, find out what triggered that reaction within you so you can grow, learn, and make a decision of what to do with that emotion." - Laura Coe "Some people don't know where to start at all with what they want to do with their lives. If that's you, it's a process to get there but it's not that difficult. It's really just learning what your unique talents are, what you feel uplifted towards, and then starting to pursue those things more and finding what feels more like play and enjoyment again to you in life." - Laura Coe "If I'm feeling angry about something while another person isn't, that's an inner energy that somehow was triggered in me. In moments like that, we want to start asking ourselves what's happening within us and get very curious about ourselves. To get curious about yourself, you have to be able to accept that there's nothing right or wrong about these emotional states; they're just happening and they're interesting pieces of information." - Laura Coe   Links From Today's Show  Laura Coe Facebook Twitter LinkedIn YouTube Emotional Obesity by Laura Coe The Art of Authenticity Podcast One on One Coaching with Laura Coe Figure out your emotional weight How To Conquer Fear: An Emotional Workout How To Have A Life Of Purpose The Value of Daily Emotional Workouts Do You Suffer From Emotional Obesity? 5 Essential Steps To A Cure Marianne Williamson Gary Vaynerchuk Tony Robbins WFR 223 Dr. Ruscio About Laura Coe   Laura co-founded Litholink Corporation, a healthcare company serving over 350,000 patients per month nationally.

So many young people want velocity and for things to happen right now but if you're on a negative trajectory, you're going to crash and burn even faster. Your trajectory has to be positive and all the fundamentals have to be in place. If the trajectory is right, the velocity will eventually come." - Aaron Hinde "While it's easy to maintain momentum, it's so hard to create it. You can't just drop everything on focus on one thing.

Momentum fueled with the right trajectory and alignment towards a common goal with your team will help you crush it." - Aaron Hinde "The key is to not let your negative thoughts to keep circulating in your mind because otherwise, you will end up manifesting that negativity. We can never get rid of our demons but there are tactics to control the negative head talk.

Melehan was a Certified Financial Planner and Hinde was a sports chiropractor who worked with many local athletes. A friendship was quickly struck, which later evolved into a business partnership. The two were convinced that conscious consumers would start to demand alternatives to high sugar, high caffeine, and artificial mass market drinks. They were equally convinced that consumers were looking for more functionality than the caffeine found in energy drinks or isotonic sports drinks.  After months of brainstorming and collaboration, they created their vision for LIFEAID and funded it with a mere $30,000 apiece. Melehan’s financial expertise helped craft the business plan.  Hinde’s background in nutrition and chiropractic care proved essential when developing LIFEAID products as he worked with their team of a biochemist and beverage scientists. LIFEAID now makes six specially-formulated blends, plus a protein/carb food pouch  Fast forward to today and the company’s products can be found in hundreds of golf courses, thousands of gyms, and nationwide in fine retailers such as Whole Foods, Sprouts, and The Vitamin Shoppe.  FITAID is the official recovery drink of the 2017 CrossFit Games LIFEAID remains an independent brand run by its founders – not a subsidiary of a large beverage conglomerate.  That spirit of independence is reflected in their company culture, the products they offer and the communities they serve.  Join The Wellness Warrior VIP Club:  **Click on the photo above to get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.**   More Top Episodes 226 Paul Chek: The Revolution Is Coming (3 Part Series) 131 Drew Manning: Emotional Fitness 129 Gretchen Rubin: The Four Tendencies  183 Dr. Kyra Bobinet: Brain Science 196 Aubrey Marcus: Own The Day 103 Robb Wolf: Wired To Eat Best of The Best: The Top 10 Guests From over 200 Shows Get More Wellness In Your Life Join the WFR Community on facebook Tweet us on Twitter: Send us a fun tweet (or a what's up) Comment on the Facebook page Rate & Review Wellness Force

We don't do this work because it's easy; we do this because it's the path towards our liberation, fulfillment, expression, and authentic beauty being readily available." - @drdanengle on @WellnessForce Radio 241 wellnessforce.com/241   Click here to get your copy of The Concussion Repair Manual by Dr. Dan Engle Concussion -- the biggest name in today's high-impact sports. As more and more high-profile athletes come forward to share their stories of invisible suffering after head injuries, we as a culture are finally acknowledging this silent epidemic. The Concussion Repair Manual is written as a user’s guide for those suffering after head traumas and those that support them. It is one-part “textbook,” packed with the leading research on medical technologies for healing the injured brain, and one-part “workbook,” offering a step-by-step method for making and tracking a personalized recovery regimen. Dr. Dan Engle's background and passion for concussion repair stem from a three-decade investigation into the many modalities for healing his own traumas. When the usual medical treatments didn’t help, he explored what was possible, found what worked and put them into this manual - "the best of the best" in the medical arena for recovering from sports-related head injury.   Listen To Episode 241 As Dr. Dan Engle Uncovers: His connection with human optimization and wellness leaders such as Paul Chek, Kyle Kingsbury, and Aubrey Marcus. The current anxiety and depression we're currently going through as a society; especially for adolescents, geriatrics, and veterans. Why social media and feeling urgent all the time is leading us to feel more lonely, anxious, and depressed than ever before. What emotions we feel when we're being inauthentic and lying on social media. Why time urgency is the number one cause of stress. What revelation he had while healing from his injuries that he didn't want to live by other people's expectations and didn't want to be working in a hospital for the rest of his career. His experience from the plant medicine, Ayahuasca, and what he learned about himself from it. Why our society resorts to prescribing medication rather than looking at the core issue of a person's health problem. Why psychedelics aren't for everyone and they should be respected rather than misused. Benefits of psychedelics for those who are suitable candidates to use them to heal. Proper and regulated screening, preparation, and integration that patients would receive during treatment with psychedelics such as Psilocybin. Differences between levels 1, 2 and 3 plant medicine experiences and which ones are the most recommended for therapeutic use. Why he believes plant medicine and psychedelics are part of a sacred path for people who are candidates to participate. Why he contemplated suicide after diving so deep into plant medicine and thinking about all that was expected of him by other people. How he was in this deep Bardo phase of being in between lives and worlds have his experience with Ayahuasca. What The Satori Method is and how it helps with multi-level healing. Sensory deprivation, Vipassana, and meditation - how they can be integrated into plant medicine preparation. Why being able to practice sensory deprivation and meditation in a float tank is so beneficial and vital to being able to experience plant medicine. Why mindfulness meditation can be harmful to those with active PTSD and trauma but external guidance is better. Power Quotes From The Show "We're more digitally connected than we've ever been but we're less socially connected than we've ever been. We, as social beings who bonded for connection, are fighting a loneliness epidemic." - @drdanengle on @WellnessForce Radio episode 241 wellnessforce.com/241 "If we can't talk it through at therapy, then we rely on pharmaceuticals to manage the symptoms. Our health care is a system that's built for acute care management but it's horrible at chronic care support and core issue resolution. Psychedelic medicines are good for the core issues where psychiatry is weak. Many of the psychedelics are good for one if not all of the five core primary archetypes of psychiatric symptoms: depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction and pain." - Dr. Dan Engle "When we become clear with who we are and bring our shadow into the light, we will get to know it. This process helps us integrate our work with the healing. Plant medicines don't fix us and they're not designed to do that. This is our work to do. The medicines help us get clear with our truth and the direction of being able to actually actualize that truth via the next steps and orientation but they don't do the work for us." - Dr. Dan Engle "If we can solidify the foundation to be able to self-regulate better then when we do come up in close with our core issues and shadow material, we're more willing, ready, and able to process it, learn from it, heal it, integrate it, and become more whole." - Dr. Dan Engle   Links From Today's Show Dr. Dan Engle Facebook Instagram Twitter The Revive Treatment Centers of America Facebook Instagram Full Spectrum Medicine The Satori Method Onnit The Concussion Repair Manual California Vision 2020 Huachuma: The Forgotten Psychedelic (Full Documentary) Ayahuasca - Drink The Jungle Documentary Are Psychedelic Drugs the Next Medical Breakthrough?

There's no exact amount of hard work that will guarantee success. We often get caught up on what success really is but if we can change that focus to 'hard work done consistently equals progress' then we're sure to be better than yesterday. - Matt Vincent How can you become stronger by exploring your own inner hate, self-loathing, and darkness? ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

Find out what good can come from diving into yourself to uncover and heal from your own demons. "Bring the fight; don't sit & wait for it to come to you. Be on the offense of strategy because today's an opportunity. We're not just surviving; we're going to thrive." - Matt Vincent @matSOawesome of HVIII Brand Goods on @WellnessForce Radio episode 240 wellnessforce.com/240   Click here to learn more about and buy from HVIII Brand Goods HVIII (sound it out: H+Roman Numeral 'VIII') is a strong term that many will find negative. Good. So do I. I refuse to not get better. It is not an option. I will make the sacrifices necessary to be the best. This attack on the self is necessary because if I don’t train every day with the intention of destroying the old me, then I’m missing something. This is the fire I feel, that I want you to feel. This is the fire, the hate, the motivation for improvement. HVIII Brand Goods is a lifestyle brand that is based on a very simple philosophy: Turn negativity into positive results. Everyone has doubts, everyone worries about just how much they can accomplish. Don't hide from those thoughts; let them drive you. Find adventure, chase strength, build something. Whatever you choose to do, put your whole self into it and enjoy yourself in the process. The process is everything. At HVIII Brand Goods, we make apparel and accessories with an emphasis on style and quality. Every item we create starts with a basic idea: Is this something we would want for ourselves? If the answer is 'yes' then we obsess over getting it just right so we can share it with you. Carrying the HVIII Brand Goods message on your body is a statement of support, and we take that seriously. Loyalty above all. You deserve our best, and we attack every day with the purpose of giving it to you.   Listen To Episode 240 As Matt Vincent Uncovers: How he created the philosophy of HVIII Brand Goods: "The spirit of self-improvement through self-loathing." This renewal of reconnecting with others and really looking for a tribe through groups like CrossFit. The power of going outside of your own suffering and still be there for your team so you can win together. His morning routine being relaxed vs. getting fired up with exercise, movement, cold tub, and coffee. What he learned from the process he went through when his dad passed away from pancreatic cancer. What the term 'hate' means to him and why he finds it so motivating. How he stays authentic in his social media platforms, videos, and the HVIII brand. His past experience working in sales and what he took away from it. Levels of consciousness: How much he has grown since he worked in sales to beginning HVIII. What he's learned about himself, success, and hard work by completing tasks by himself compared to with his team. Why pain and trauma are not a competition and we're all dealing with our own issues at our own full capacity. How he balances all aspects of his health, business, and relationships. What he does when finds he's out of balance with work and personal relationships. The inner work he did before he met his wife and how they've both grown since then. How he defines himself and stays authentic to who he is. What the Highland Games is and what he loves the most about throwing and being an athlete. His experience with injuries and what he went through mentally during some of the toughest moments of his throwing career. Where he's planning for his company, HVIII Brand Goods, to go in the future. The power of saying 'no' to what you don't want to do and focusing on getting to do what you love. The most he's learned from his wife when it comes to strength training and mindset. Power Quotes From The Show "I'm not obligated to train; I get to train. You can't outsource progress. If you want to become stronger, more fit, and healthy, all of that takes time and you get to put the time into it."- Matt Vincent @matSOawesome on @WellnessForce Radio episode 240 wellnessforce.com/240 "No one owes you success; the universe doesn't care. If this is what you want, you do it but you do it for yourself and nobody else. Quit focusing on the mindset of, 'If I just get there, all of this will be okay,' because there is no 'there;' it's all just a journey and a process. So, learn to live in that because that's where we are now." - Matt Vincent "'At some point, we have to realize that pain and trauma are not a competition.' Everyone is dealing at 100% all the time for them. People are just doing the best they can with the tools they're given." - Matt Vincent quoting David Choe. "Knowing yourself is so important. You have to dive into the dark parts of yourself. Pretending they don't exist doesn't make them not exist. If you've got darkness, that's okay. You don't get to experience the good without the bad." - Matt Vincent "I don't want me to care more about your success than you do. That can't work; you have to care and be the one to instill it in you that this is the standard, this is the line that we hold, and this is non-negotiable. You have to hate yourself enough to do the work. Good enough isn't good enough today. Perform when it counts and like anything else, that's a knife that can be sharpened." - Matt Vincent " 'Comparison is the thief of joy.' Own your work and do it for you. If you're doing it for someone else, that's not sustainable either." - Matt Vincent Links From Today's Show Matt Vincent Instagram Twitter YouTube HVIII Brand Goods Facebook Twitter Instagram UMSO Podcast Training Lab by Matt Vincent Spartan Race World Championships Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook - Gary Vaynerchuk Jordan Peterson Alan Watts Carl Jung Brené Brown Joe Rogan Tony Robbins Dana Linn Bailey Kelly Starrett Mark Bell WFR 086 Mark Divine WFR 196 Aubrey Marcus About Matt Vincent Matt Vincent is a traveling strength athlete, two-time Highland Games World Champion, and founder of HVIII Brand Goods.

What's the deeper truth about sports-specific uses of Cannabidiol and how can this natural plant can help to potentially fight against the rising opioid addiction epidemic in our nation? Does Cannabidiol really have the potential of preventing inflammation and helping athletes managing pain? Our guest today is Jay Hartenbach the CEO of MedTerra, a CBD health and wellness company started by a group of individuals passionate about CBD products to help heal and provide relief through the incredible power of plants, specifically hemp. Jay has spent the last five plus years distributing CBD across the world where he has built a network of industrial hemp farms. Learn more about MedTerra.  Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring cannabinoid constituent of cannabis. It was discovered in 1940 and initially thought not to be pharmaceutically active. It is one of at least 113 cannabinoids identified in hemp plants, accounting for up to 40% of the plant's extract. As of 2018 in the United States, Food and Drug Administration approval of cannabidiol as a prescription drug called Epidiolex for medical uses has been limited to two rare forms of childhood epilepsy What is the Endocannabinoid system? Discovered in the 20th Century, the endocannabinoid system is a biological system composed of endocannabinoids that are neurotransmitters that bind to cannabinoid receptors in the mammalian brain and body. CBD is one of the primary cannabinoids found in hemp. These cannabinoid receptors play a pivotal role in physiological processes such as mood, memory and pain. There are two cannabinoid receptors - CB1 and CB2 that are located on cells throughout the body. What are CB1 and CB2 Receptors? CB1 receptors are primarily located on nerve cells in the brain, spinal cord and central nervous system. They are very abundant in the cerebellum, basal ganglia, and hippocampus. The CB1 receptors have been found to play a role in memory processing, motor regulation, pain sensation, mood, and sleep.  CB2 receptors are primarily found on cells in the immune system and its associated structures. When activated, they stimulate a response that fights inflammation, which can reduce pain and minimize damage to tissues. How do these receptors work? Cannabinoids help coordinate and regulate how we feel and think by binding with the endocannabinoid system’s CB1 and CB2 receptors. Fitting like puzzle pieces, cannabinoids are designed to link together with the cannabinoid receptors. Linking activates the receiving neuron into action, triggering a set of events to pass along the message and carry out a variety of cellular responses needed for homeostasis and healthy functioning. ---> Join the Wellness Warrior VIP Club: get exclusive discounts on new wellness tools, be first in line for new podcasts, get access to invite-only events, and so much more.** ---> Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

Monocrops are the number one most susceptible crop to pests, destruction, and possibly famine. By saving seeds, we maintain crop diversity. When we save seeds and store them, we’re not relying on the potential doom and gloom of industrial agricultural systems. - Sefra Alexandra We find ourselves in a pinch of time in our ethnobotanical history where the genetic biodiversity of our planet is in rapid decline. The seeds that hold the knowledge of our land and the memory of our ancestors are being ignored and forgotten. Today, 93% of vegetable varieties have already gone extinct. JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST  20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE   Discover how easy it is to begin seed saving at home, plant, and grow crops in your window box, patio, or garden. "The solution for stable, nutritious crops that can grow in non-fertilized, non-irrigated soil exist; there just needs to be a larger conversation about what those crops are and how they can be shared with the world." - @TheSeedHuntress on @WellnessForce wellnessforce.com/238   Click here to learn more about seed saving and the Crop Trust Our mission is to ensure the conservation and availability of crop diversity for food security worldwide. It has never been more critical to conserve crop diversity. We need the greatest possible diversity of crops to secure our food supply at a time when we are making unprecedented demands, and putting unprecedented pressure, on our environment. A 10,000 YEAR LEGACY WE CAN’T LEAVE TO CHANCE Throughout the history of agriculture, farmers have generated a seemingly endless diversity within crops, discovering ingenious solutions to local challenges. Meanwhile, many of the wild relatives of these crops have also persisted in nature, adapting to tough environments. Crop diversity allows farmers to feed the world. But this diversity is not in fact endless. It is disappearing, and once lost, it’s lost forever.  We need crop diversity both in farmer’s fields and stored in genebanks – available to all through an efficient global system to ensure that nutritious food will be available at stable and affordable prices without expanding agriculture’s footprint. Safeguarding biodiversity in – and around – agriculture is a prerequisite for food security. No single institution can hold this diversity, which amounts to millions of distinct crop varieties and make it available to plant breeders and farmers around the world. The Crop Trust brings together and secures those genebanks that are tasked by the international community with conserving this legacy for all of us.   Listen To Episode 238 As Sefra Alexandra Uncovers: What it means to be a seed huntress and how she became involved in seed banking. The differences between ex situ conservation and in situ conservation of plant or animal species. What consequences and issues happen when aid organizations send in seeds from the US to natural disaster zones in other countries. Our natural connection with the earth and how she connects with it in her own way. What a 'higher power' is to her as a spirit who moves through all things.

What you can do to start seed saving and growing your own food if you live in a large city. Permaculture - what it is and how it's becoming more and more popular in cities like Los Angeles.

How we can feed and nourish the world through seed saving compared to monocropping. Why we don't have to rely on only 12 crops and get nutrition from only 4 of them: canola, corn, wheat, and soy. Edible forest gardening - what it is and how it helps to both save seeds and regrow forests.

Power Quotes From The Show "Just because monocropping is giving people calories, it doesn't mean we're giving them nutrition. The reality is that we're also dealing with a lot of malnutrition througout the world because of the monoculture." - @TheSeedHuntress on @WellnessForce wellnessforce.com/238 "It's too late to be pessimistic; it's all about optimism now. Often times, people forget about the power they have to be stewards and caretakers of the earth. In fact, it's a lot easier than what most people think. It's a great feeling to see how communities are rebuilt and regenerated after a natural disaster occurs. The same thing can be said about rebuilding an environment and ecosystem." - Sefra Alexandra "Each corn kernel you eat is a whole corn plant. Each apple seed is an entire apple tree. An acorn can grow into an oak. When you start to have reverence and understand the magic embryos that you are encountering every day, you start to have a different relationship towards being around food." - Sefra Alexandra "We can walk into a grocery store here and there is just this gorgeous cornucopia of food available. There are very few countries where everyone is dieting. In most countries, people are dying. This comes from a huge point of privilege and to look at all this abundant food but not have an appreciation for it. Seed saving is so much easier than people think. You can take the seeds of a tomato you like and grow them in your own garden or window box at home." - Sefra Alexandra "You can either focus on the doom and gloom of the big corporations like Monsanto or realize that the power is exactly inherently the opposite; it's completely in our hands. When we take seeds, plant, and save them, we're not relying on these bigger, industrial agricultural systems. That's how we build our own resilience." - Sefra Alexandra   Links From Today's Show   Sefra Alexandra Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Pinterest   Rocky Mountain Seed Alliance Rocky Mountain Seed Alliance Seed School Online  Food Forever Initiative Spartan UP!

An increasing amount of lawsuits against Monsanto and why a total of 10,000 is expected by the end of this year. Power Quotes From The Show "It takes a big man to make a big and powerful company but it takes an even bigger man to acknowledge when something is not working and to go in a new direction." - What @zenhoneycutt said to the Monsanto CEO. Learn more on @WellnessForce Radio episode 237 wellnessforce.com/237 "Not just for Moms Across America but for consumers from all around the world, this trial that found Monsanto guilty was really a triumph for all of humanity and life on this planet. This sends the message to the chemical companies that you must be responsible for your role in your products and for the outcome of what happens in the world." - Zen Honeycutt "I understand the wanting to believe our government, media, or regulatory agencies but what I found when I looked deeper was that these chemicals actually aren't approved by the EPA. The EPA only requires safety studies on one ingredient in a product and there could be 50 different ingredients. Since the 1980s, we have come to understand that the other ingredients in RoundUp besides glyphosate are a thousand times more toxic than glyphosate. Not to say that glyphosate alone isn't harmful but the other chemicals are a thousand times more toxic and they have never been approved by the EPA. So, to say that the product is safe and to just trust the product that's on the shelf is safe to use around your kids and pets is a perception that was created with brilliant marketing by Monsanto to mislead the public. Their claims don't have a scientific foundation and are not based on anything or that's been presented to the EPA." - Zen Honeycutt "People are realizing that agriculture has had an addiction to these chemical cocktails and by shining the light on glyphosate, it's become known what's happening in the food system so that people can choose to opt out of this chemical monopoly. We can choose to eat organic, grow our own food, and to know our farmers. I call this the beginning of the end of this chemical era." - Zen Honeycutt "The monocrop culture which is based in the United States is really a way for us to export more produce. That act of exporting monocrops to a third world country doesn't actually help them. It may feed them temporarily but it makes them dependent on another country rather than establishing their own local food systems and sustainability. So, it actually decreases jobs, productivity, community, health, and their ability to have access to diverse, local foods." - Zen Honeycutt  Links From Today's Show Zen Honeycutt Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn YouTube Moms Across America Facebook Twitter Instagram MAA National Toxin Free Town Campaign UNSTOPPABLE: Transforming Sickness and Struggle into Triumph, Empowerment and a Celebration of Community Could 2018 mark the end of the anti-GMO movement?

Listen To Episode 236 As Dr. Michael Ruscio Uncovers: The Enteric Nervous System (ENS) - what it is, how it connects to the gut, and why it's the second brain. How gut problems like dysbiosis and IBS not only affect the stomach system but the brain and our moods as well. Types of skin issues might occur if a person has a leaky gut. What advanced interleukins testing is and how it helps to check for inflammation. Why each person needs to figure out how gluten affects their individual body compared to focusing on avoiding it at all cost. The benefits of the elimination diet to help your body heal and better understand if any foods affect your body. Why the Ketogenic diet isn't for everyone even though it's all everyone is talking about.

Why taking the minimal suggested dose is so important when it comes to taking any kind of medicine including cannabis. Why slowing down and take your health step by step and observing changes might just be what you need to do to heal. Power Quotes From The Show "There is this connection between the brain and the gut. When you see a problem in the gut, you will almost always see that manifest in the brain. The Enteric Nervous System of the gut is basically your second brain." - @DrRuscio on @WellnessForce Radio wellnessforce.com/236 "When it comes to their health, people make things more complicated than they need to be. They overcomplicate things because they hear other tidbits and have a hard time following just one lead. Or they overcomplicate things in the sense of thinking that in order to follow this protocol, they have to do everything perfectly. The biggest thing people can do is to just find a simple system like the one in Healthy Gut, Healthy You, just chill out, and do their best to go through it." - Dr. Michael Ruscio "If you're someone on a budget and you're trying to get healthy, then do not spend hundreds of dollars on one of these tests because they really don't deliver on the promise that they're making. It's unfortunate that I have to be blowing the whistle here but I'd like it if these companies didn't make these pretty lofty health claims when there really isn't any data to support them." - Dr. Michael Ruscio "Slow down, do one thing at a time, and realize that to learn what your body needs, you can't do 7 things at once. Do one thing for a few weeks and then move onto the next.

Power Quotes From The Show "Once you get everything that you want, you realize that it's such a small piece of the whole entire picture. I want as many as people as possible to wake up and recognize their own greatness." - @drewcanole on @wellnessforce Radio episode 235 wellnessforce.com/235 "When you make the conscious act every day to supply yourself with the highest quality nutritious, organic superfoods that have been clinically tested to legitimately lower your stress, reduce depression, increase your energy, improve your mood, and do all of these absolutely amazing things for the human body, it just changes you." - Drew Canole  "If I am part of divinity and a pencil in the hand of God plus know that God is constantly expanding in the constant universe, rippling out then my natural ability to expand co-exists with what that is. The big bang is inside of me so my ability to be open is really my ability to hook to the infinity that's within me. That's the greatest secret of all because once you have access to that and it's not about you, your dream life is there and divine synchronicity starts to happen. God or the universe is using us consistently but we have to be open to it." - Drew Canole "Put your faith out there and just be you; don't try to change yourself in order to sell more products because that's not going to be fun. You're going to get to the end of your life and you'll have all this money but if you lose yourself in the process of making money, that's not a life worth living. You just want to become more of who you are and you want the world to pay attention and buy that."  - Drew Canole "Soul mapping is really turning inwards, getting deep within yourself, and recognizing the patterns in our lives. When you look back far enough on your life, you'll see this red thread of patterns of your soul's choices. Once you get to that point, you're much more equipped to make choices from your soul in the future. A lot of times, we make choices from our mind but if you can start to make choices from your heart and soul, your purpose and desire for what you want to create on this planet really start to enlarge."  - Drew Canole Links From Today's Show Drew Canole Facebook Twitter Instagram Organifi FitLifeTV YouTube  Facebook Pinterest You Be You WFR 078 Drew Canole: Self Love, Juicing, & Transformation FitLifeTV Alpha Reset Wayne Dyer Jim Fortin The Joel S.

We do have power and we do have a choice but I think we underestimate the power that we have. It saddens me that many people just go about their business every day without considering the impact of their choices. Even though I'm 100% plant-based, I've never taken the position of telling a person what they should or shouldn't do but I do want people to know about the miracle of plants and superfoods; just for them to eat more and better nutritious foods. If you can grow your own, find your own, or support companies by really voting with your money, that's a good thing. - Darin Olien How can the power of your wallet make a dramatic shift in the way the world sees, produces, and consumes food?

Discover how the superfood, Barùkas nut, of the Baru fruit from the Brazilian Cerrado (pronounced 'sahadu') can improve your health, help others, and leave behind a smaller water footprint. "It's actually more economical for you to be biting into a Barùkas nut and getting all those superfood nutrients for your money than what you're paying for an almond."- @SuperLifeLiving on @wellnessforce Radio episode 234 wellnessforce.com/234   Order and try Barùkas here data-template-name="productDescription"> Barùkas are the healthiest nuts on the planet; literally a mini-cocktail of hard to find micronutrients and vegan protein. A single handful packs your daily fiber requirement, and it’s simply amazing how many healthy micronutrients are in each bite. But they’re not just good for you, they’re good for the world. Barùkas represent an amazing opportunity to reforest our planet and sustain indigenous communities on their land. The trees that give these nuts are called Baruzeira. They are found in the Amazonian savanna biome called the Cerrado (pronounced sahadu), which covers an area 3 times the size of Texas. It’s one of the most beautiful areas in the world. Unfortunately, this immense biodiversity is already being deforested to make way for cattle ranching. The growth of Barùkas can help put an end to the deforestation and preserve the original flora. Not only that, it will allow indigenous people to make a sustainable living off the land. It’s truly a win all around. For your health, the health of the planet, and the health of the world community. Give them a try and let us know what you think.

On one respect, the body is doing everything it can to stay in that balance but if you're being exposed to something over time and you don't know it and you keep eating your regular food that has a heavy metal which no one has ever tested, then all of a sudden you'll start to question, 'Why I do forget things?', 'Why am I sluggish?','Why is my thyroid off?' and the list goes on ten and twenty years down the line." - Darin Olien "Then long-term longevity studies, researchers on the blue zones, and centurions know without a doubt that the research is in: believing in a higher power and having faith in something outside of yourself is good for your health. However, you have to stop the judgment; to believe in something but to then judge others for having a different belief is not helping. Get rid of the judgment, leave it alone, and live your life." - Darin Olien "We have to get outside, take off our shoes, and expose our skin to the sun without chemicals for periods of time.

Just get back into the primal aspects of being exposed to the sunlight, feel the cold weather, or touch the real earth with your feet." - Darin Olien   Links From Today's Show Darin Olien Facebook Twitter Instagram SuperLife Barùkas Facebook Instagram Twitter Excursions with SuperLife SuperLife Superfood Conservancy SuperLife: The 5 Simple Fixes That Will Make You Healthy, Fit & Eternally Awesome Barùkas® Trail Mix | The New Superfood on Kickstarter RainCatcher Darin Olien: A Superfood Hunter On Peak Nutrition & Next Level Hydration The Indiana Jones Of Superfoods: Stem Cells, Air-To-Water Machines, Coffeefruit & More With Darin Olien VARIDESK Sit-to-Stand Desks The Oxygen Advantage by Patrick McKeown Dr. Michael J.

It’s his no-judgment, progress-focused, supportive approach that gets results. Darin’s interest in food and nutrition began when a college football injury drove him to uncover better ways to heal his body. He realized there had to be a better option out thereafter he struggled to recover using only traditional Western medicine treatments that failed to address the healing potential of his diet and lifestyle choices. It’s then that he began to pursue a healthier lifestyle and deeper understanding of how hydration, nutrition, and exercise can truly impact the human body. Darin changed his major, studying Exercise Physiology and Nutrition. He now holds a Bachelor degree in this field as well as a Masters in Psychology.  Today Darin is widely recognized as an authority and valuable resource on plant-based nutrition, supplement formulation and elite performance programs, which he has created for some of the top athletes in the world. After 20+ years of travel and unwavering dedication to research, Darin published his book, “SuperLife: The 5 Simple Fixes That Will Make You Healthy, Fit & Eternally Awesome” in 2015 at the same time that the online SuperLife community was founded. One year later, the leading SuperLife 10-Day Nutrition program was launched, which has helped thousands successfully reclaim their health and experience the healing power of plant-based nutrition.     Get More Wellness In Your Life Join the WFR Community on facebook Send Josh Trent a personal message Tweet me on Twitter: Send us a fun tweet (or a what's up) Comment on the Facebook page Sign up to get an email alert whenever we release a new episode Support This Podcast Leave a 5 star review on iTunes Share this episode with someone you care about Contact Wellness Force Radio for podcast sponsorship and partnership opportunities Rate & Review Wellness Force ---> REVIEW THE PODCAST Ask A Live Question For The Next Episode ---> Click here to leave a voicemail directly to Josh Trent to be read live on the air.  You May Also Like These Episodes Food Freedom Forever With Melissa Hartwig Nir Eyal: Breaking Bad Habits, Technology Addiction, & Emotional Triggers Healthy, Happy & Harder To Kill w/ Steph Gaudreau of Stupid Easy Paleo Beyond Meditation: How To Get A Better Brain With Ariel Garten Living A Healthy Lifestyle In A Modern World With Dan Pardi Creating A Life Worth Living With Michael Strasner   Join the Wellness Force Newsletter: www.wellnessforce.com/news Don't miss next week's show: Subscribe and stay updated Did you like this show on Ketosis? Rate and review Wellness Force on iTunes You read all the way to the bottom?

Positive Vibes: Farmer Curt sees to it that each of our beautiful, organic hemp plants receives the best of everything, including a lifetime of the sun, mountain water, and great tunes. Love and Gratitude: Once extracted, the words “love” and “gratitude” are energetically infused into the hemp oil according to the findings of Dr. Masaru Emoto in his NY Times Best Seller, “The Hidden Messages in Water.” Binaural Beats: Our products are attuned to the frequencies of 3.5 Hz and 7.83 Hz are then played to the contents of each bottle to promote balance and grounding. Binaural beats are the result of two different auditory impulses heard from opposite ears. The Delta 3.5hz frequency is associated with remedying depression and anxiety while promoting DNA repair. 7.83hz is the powerful healing frequency of earth’s magnetic field (Schumann’s Resonance), which promotes focus, balance, and calm.

Power Quotes From The Show "Plants will give you their medicine if you treat them with respect. We extract at room temperature and with no pressure; that's our way of respecting the plant & asking it to give us its medicine." - #RetTaylor of #Ned on @wellnessforce Radio episode 233 wellnessforce.com/233 "I started researching why I'm so drawn to nature and through that process, I realized my purpose. I'm here to help people, businesses, and organizations reconnect with nature. So, Ned is very much an extension of that for me." - Ret Taylor "I was living this life in New York City that I thought I wanted but I ended up just feeling empty. At the end of the day, there was no connection to nature. I'd grown up going to my grandparent's farm in Finland every summer and my family had these 4 acres that I enjoyed as a child but by the time I was 30, I had completely severed this relationship I had with the natural world. I had worked so hard to accomplish becoming this type of person and build this identity for myself but it essentially all just became a life raft for me and I started to question what I was really here for." - Adriaan Zimmerman "Whether it's insomnia, anxiety, pain, or cancer, many people who seek out hemp oil resources do so because they are stuck in a prison. Through nature, we're able to thrive and the deeper connection we have with nature, the more we're able to thrive. That's why we as a society are not thriving as much as we could. As soon as we go to the mountains and stand beneath the Redwoods, that's when the thriving begins to happen. That's what we're really trying to do with Ned; to take something from nature and to do it as ethically, simply, and naturally as possible, put it in a bottle, and let people know exactly where this hemp oil comes from." - Ret Taylor "We don't want to be just a hemp oil company. We are searching the world for the best, natural remedies and we plan to bring many of those back home under the Ned label. In five years time, we'd love for Ned to be that alternative to a pharmacy so you won't have to go sift through all sorts of literature and endless aisles at the drugstore. Instead, we'll just make it simpler for you with natural, whole products. That's our mission beyond hemp oil." - Adriaan Zimmerman "Plants will give you their medicine if you treat them with respect. If you take those plants and throw them in a thrasher and then extract them at a super high temperature with massive amounts of pressure, you will get some medicine out but you don't know how good that medicine is or what its molecular structure and profile looks like. We extract at room temperature and with no pressure; that's our way of respecting the plant at the end of its life and asking it to give us its medicine." - Ret Taylor Links From Today's Show Ned & Co.

WFR 111 Evan Brand WFR 184 Scott Nelson WFR 226 Paul Chek About Ned & Co. Ned ™ was officially born one cold October morning on an alpine climbing expedition in the heart of Colorado’s Indian Peaks Wilderness. After spending years in different industries chasing our previous ideas of "success" in some of the world’s busiest cities, we had come to the realization that there is something fundamentally broken about the way we, as a modern society, are approaching our health and well-being. Many of us are feeling the consequences of device addiction, stress, anxiety, and a multitude of other ailments that have come to rule our lives. We are too quick to turn to doctors and prescription drugs as a first line of defense. We were reminded, in our own ways, that the best answers often lie in nature… in a walk through the forest; in the glow of a campfire; and in the plants, herbs, roots, fungi, and the very soil that our ancestors have used for millennia. That is why we created Ned. We knew that getting into the elements on that October morning would fuel the creative wave we were riding. The two of us set out in blizzard conditions and, sure enough, by the time we were thawing out over well-earned burritos, we had built our foundation. Ned is a representation of our passion for feeling better and living better through simple means and a deep connection to the natural world. We truly believe we were put on this earth to share in the wonderment of nature and rediscover all of the healing power that it holds.     Get More Wellness In Your Life Join the WFR Community on facebook Send Josh Trent a personal message Tweet me on Twitter: Send us a fun tweet (or a what's up) Comment on the Facebook page Sign up to get an email alert whenever we release a new episode Support This Podcast Leave a 5 star review on iTunes Share this episode with someone you care about Contact Wellness Force Radio for podcast sponsorship and partnership opportunities Rate & Review Wellness Force ---> REVIEW THE PODCAST Ask A Live Question For The Next Episode ---> Click here to leave a voicemail directly to Josh Trent to be read live on the air.  You May Also Like These Episodes Food Freedom Forever With Melissa Hartwig Nir Eyal: Breaking Bad Habits, Technology Addiction, & Emotional Triggers Healthy, Happy & Harder To Kill w/ Steph Gaudreau of Stupid Easy Paleo Beyond Meditation: How To Get A Better Brain With Ariel Garten Living A Healthy Lifestyle In A Modern World With Dan Pardi Creating A Life Worth Living With Michael Strasner   Join the Wellness Force Newsletter: www.wellnessforce.com/news Don't miss next week's show: Subscribe and stay updated Did you like this show on Ketosis? Rate and review Wellness Force on iTunes You read all the way to the bottom?

Power Quotes From The Show "The easiest way for me to change how I feel and shift my mindset is to just start moving my body. Find your healthy outlet to really move your mind and body in a more positive matter." - @yelkaim on @wellnessforce Radio episode 232 wellnessforce.com/232 "When you give yourself a certain identity, you kind of box yourself into a stereotype to some degree. So, a lot of people with weight issues can't really identify or visualize themselves as a lean, thin, energetic person. The problem with that is if you can't even see that for yourself as a possibility, then you're not going to act in accordance with that. Our brain is never going to act or our body will never behave in discord with how we see ourselves. So, how we behave and our beliefs; all of this has to be congruent with how we see ourselves showing up in the world which is essentially our self-identity." - Yuri Elkaim "It's important for all of us to realize that we're here for a reason. I don't think we'd be here if there wasn't a reason. So tell yourself, 'I believe I'm here for a reason. Perhaps I'm not too sure what that is but I'm here which means that I'm here for a reason and I'm going to figure it out.' That is part of the spiritual journey of understanding yourself and achieving self-actualization." - Yuri Elkaim "Structure equals freedom. When we look at our lives and how we live our days, I really believe that a lot of people have to structure their day. How does structure give us more freedom? When you plan ahead, you don't have to think in the moment. When you think ahead of time, that alleviates the need to make those daily decisions. Meal planning works because the worst question you can ask yourself in the moment, especially with a family, is, 'What's for dinner?' If you ask that question when it's time for dinner, you've already lost the battle." - Yuri Elkaim   Links From Today's Show Yuri Elkaim Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Pinterest Healthpreneur Healthpreneur Live 2018 Facebook Instagram YouTube Healthpreneur Podcast Getting Past Your Emotional Demons to Create a Business Breakthrough with Josh Trent [Episode 125] From Soccer to Bed to No Hair On My Head (My Unusual Journey) The All-Day Energy Diet by Yuri Elkaim The All-Day Fat Burning Diet by Yuri Elkaim How to Beat Cancer: The Top 15 Cancer-Fighting Foods Yuri Elkaim: Raw Food Dieting, Where Vegans Go Wrong, and What Canadians Think of Canola Yuri Elkaim Quick Facts The Hero's Journey by Joseph Campbell Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Psycho-Cybernetics Tony Robbins WFR Free Guide: The Morning 21 WFR 046 Dr. John Gray   About Yuri Elkaim Yuri Elkaim is a bit of an outlier and renegade in the nutrition and health community.

Children are now sicker than their parents for the first time in history. One out of two children now has a chronic disease and this was unheard of as little as two to three decades ago. This is a drastic health change in our lifetime that mostly stems from the gut. No doubt that we are all affected by this gut intestinal permeability, leaking gut, and dysbiosis which is an imbalance of the microorganisms in our gut's micro-biome. - Dr. Michelle Perro As a parent, doctor, or educator, how can you step into the role of helping children eat more nutritious, organic foods? JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST  20% OFF ORGANIFI - USE CODE: WELLNESSFORCE On Wellness Force Radio episode 231, pediatrician, lecturer and consultant at Gordon Medical Associates, and co-author of What's Making Our Children Sick?, Dr. Michelle Perro, shares her favorite tips and hacks on how to buy, prepare and eat healthy on a budget; which genetically modified, processed ingredients and foods you can easily keep out of your diet; and how organic farming can actually feed everyone, nourish the planet, and combat climate change. Discover the power of eating organic, drinking filtered water, and taking out inflammatory foods like gluten, processed sugar, and dairy from a diet. "An inflamed gut affects the brain. Leaky gut, leaky brain. When a child's gut isn't feeling well, they'll experience mood disorders, problems sleeping, irritability, and low performance." - #DrMichellePerro on @wellnessforce Radio episode 231 wellnessforce.com/231   Click here to buy your own copy of What's Making Our Children Sick? With chronic disorders among American children reaching epidemic levels, hundreds of thousands of parents are desperately seeking solutions to their children’s declining health, often with little medical guidance from the experts. What’s Making Our Children Sick? convincingly explains how agrochemical industrial production and genetic modification of foods is a culprit in this epidemic. Is it the only culprit? No. Most chronic health disorders have multiple causes and require careful disentanglement and complex treatments. But what if toxicants in our foods are a major culprit, one that, if corrected, could lead to tangible results and increased health? Using patient accounts of their clinical experiences and new medical insights about the pathogenesis of chronic pediatric disorders―taking us into gut dysfunction and the microbiome, as well as the politics of food science―this book connects the dots to explain our kids’ ailing health. What’s Making Our Children Sick? explores the frightening links between our efforts to create higher-yield, cost-efficient foods and an explosion of childhood morbidity, but it also offers hope and a path to effecting change. The predicament we now face is simple. Agroindustrial “innovation” in a previous era hoped to prevent the ecosystem disaster of DDT predicted in Rachel Carson’s seminal book in 1962, Silent Spring. However, this industrial agriculture movement has created a worse disaster: a toxic environment and, consequently, a toxic food supply. Pesticide use is at an all-time high, despite the fact that biotechnologies aimed to reduce the need for them in the first place. Today these chemicals find their way into our livestock and food crop industries and ultimately onto our plates. Many of these pesticides are the modern-day equivalent of DDT. However, scant research exists on the chemical soup of poisons that our children consume on a daily basis. As our food supply environment reels under the pressures of industrialization via agrochemicals, our kids have become the walking evidence of this failed experiment. What’s Making Our Children Sick? exposes our current predicament and offers insight on the medical responses that are available, both to heal our kids and to reverse the compromised health of our food supply.   Listen To Episode 231 As Dr. Michelle Perro Uncovers: How she teamed up with local moms in her area to put an end to pesticides being sprayed in their city. How educating herself on GMOs completely transformed the way she saw foods and practiced medicine as a pediatrician. How parents, doctors, and educators can help children heal their digestive issues by ensuring they eat healthy, nutritious, organic foods. What changes we can make as a society to help not only feed the world but nourish everyone in it. Why the idea that GMOs increase the number of yields is completely false and actually end up decreasing the yields. How organic farming can actually feed everyone, nourish the planet, and combat climate change. Why it's no surprise that the majority of people have leaky gut issues with all the GMO grown and processed foods that we find everywhere. How genetics, epigenetics, stress level, and nutrition intake affect our leaky gut syndromes on various degrees. Why our children are now sicker than ever before and 1 out of every 2 children (adults as well) has a chronic disease. What's really going on when people take part in these gut health tests and what they can do with that information.

Power Quotes From The Show "Can you be the parent who brings oranges to the soccer game and not cupcakes? Can you be that mom or dad? You be the model for change. It begins with you; don't pass it on to somebody else." - #DrMichellePerro on @wellnessforce Radio episode 231 wellnessforce.com/231 "Organic farming isn't only doable but it can feed and heal the planet. As regenerative farming and organic soil remove CO2 from the earth, they also nourish the planet and combat climate change." - Dr. Michelle Perro "We have been molded into complacency believing that we're going to be taken care of by the food industry. We've come to falsely believe that they have our best interests at heart and nothing could be further from the truth. They're adding increased processed fats, salt, toxic colors and dyes for you to buy more food and increase their profit; they're not doing it for your health" - Dr. Michelle Perro  "Western medicine has been so beneficial for health; however, it has to be expanded to care for and assist with these chronic health issues that we're seeing because of what we've done to ourselves. Let's not attack western medicine but expand it. We can have a medical curriculum for healthcare practitioners that isn't only based on the pharmacy industry but based on nutrition or supplements and herbal medicine when needed. Herbals have been around for thousands of years. We need to expand our thinking; not contract it. We need to be positive; not negative. I don't say get rid of western medicine; I say expand it to include many forms of healing." - Dr. Michelle Perro    Links From Today's Show Dr. Michelle Perro LinkedIn What's Making Our Children Sick?

This past week I spent 8 days in the Eastern Sierras. While I originally went for nature therapy, hiking, movement, and connecting with friends, I wound up experiencing an NDE. It was the second time I was gifted one of these in 2018, except this time it happened at 12,000 feet. Illuminated by a full moon, and trying to sleep while laying on the cold gravel in a small tent at the Mount Whitney trail camp, I felt my heart pounding fast and began to realize: I couldn't breathe. After 45 minutes of attempted conscious breathing to calm my nervous system, positive affirmations, and canister oxygen, I finally accepted the truth of what had happened: AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) I made the call. At 1230am, myself and a friend packed up to leave 3 other men to summit that morning while we both walked down the trail with headlamps to lower ground. So I wouldn't die. I recovered, slept, and I write this message to you feeling great, thanks to my decision to listen to my body. My survival brain did me well, it kept me alive. Weight loss, however, does NOT have to feel like this. If losing weight feels like you can't breathe, or if you know someone you care about that feels this way, please share with them the live Q&A link with David Zappasodi tomorrow at 11am PST (2pm EST). Click here then tap "Get Reminder" and tag them in the comments. > Get The Morning 21: A powerful (and free) system designed to give you more energy, let go of old weight, and live life well.

Renegade Beauty is really about engaging with the elements, being in contact with nature, and getting back in touch with our bodies again. We need to engage with the water, air, sun, and earth aspects of our lives. The body is alive and its cells and bacteria create billions of points of consciousness besides whats being radiated from our thoughts and heart. The ecology of our bodies is what's allowing our cells, bacteria, and our own selves to thrive. - Nadine Artemis Modern advice tells you to pile on all the SPF you can when you go outside but what does ancient wisdom say about the benefits of sunbathing, vitamin D absorption, and avoiding toxic chemicals?

It changes throughout the seasons or by the magazine but it's so deep in our culture and it's growing more because of social media. There are ads and images that we're seeing all the time and we're not even really dissecting them or looking at what's influencing us. Our mission at Living Libations is to really undo that cultural programming. " - Nadine Artemis "Our skin is designed to be exposed to solar rays; it's our form of photosynthesis and cosmic pollination. We have thousands of vitamin D receptors in our skin including places that don't even see the sun. When we receive the sun's rays through our skin, then we're able to literally fill up our vitamin D receptors. While vitamin D supplements are important, especially for people who live in winter climates, we really need to remember that the skin is designed to be exposed to the sun. We need to re-learn that we can trust this ancient design of our bodies." - Nadine Artemis  “Essential oils help us to really tap into our own emotions, mind, and physiology in a way that nothing else can. We have the ability to experience plants and herbs through eating them or drinking tea but essential oils just have this other, unique element that quite frankly is a little bit magical." - Nadine Artemis   Links From Today's Show Nadine Artemis Facebook Living Libations Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Pinterest Renegade Beauty: Reveal and Revive Your Natural Radiance Everybody Loves the Sunshine by Living Libations Living Libations - Organic/Wildcrafted Everybody Loves The Sunshine Beach Balm With Zinc Holistic Dental Care: The Complete Guide to Healthy Teeth and Gums Holistic Dental Care on Facebook Carrie Anne Moss Introduces Nadine at the Longevity Now Conference 2018 Dr. Auguste Rollier (The Sun Doctor) The dminder app 11 Things You Need to Know Before Buying Essential Oils Dr. Axe - Articles on Frankincense The Morning 21 Wellness Force Free Guide The Morning Routine Is Dead: Why Rituals Win Better Wellness   About Nadine Artemis Nadine Artemis is the author of two books including Renegade Beauty: Reveal and ReviveYour Natural Radiance and Holistic Dental Care: The Complete Guide to Healthy Teeth and gums.

The root of the problem isn't in your mind or in that way that you're thinking. The root of the problem is that you formed an association when you were younger that you weren't aware of and now you're trying to solve that survival association with your conscious mind which doesn't pair up. That's the only problem you have; that you're trying to use a tool that can't fix the situation. It's like you're trying to fit a square peg into a round hole.- David Zappasodi What can you learn from your emotional pain in order to end food cravings, addictions, and unhealthy attachments?

You want for the greatness that you have hidden within you to be able to come out, in how you look and feel, so you can live the kind of life that you love…that you deserve. WE CAN HELP… Most weight loss programs out there today just flat out don’t work. Restricting your foods. Exercising yourself to death. Using discipline and willpower to stay on track. All that stuff. These approaches can sometimes help you to lose weight quickly, but they don’t help you in the long-term. If they did, then efforts at long-term weight-loss would have more than a 3% success rate. The fact is, there’s huge difference between losing weight quickly and losing weight effectively.

Why you might not be on the right path in your wellness journey if you're at the same place as you were before a year ago from now. The differences between the survival, the reptilian brain, and the conscious mind. Examples of how he's helped clients with their brain flip including one woman with a craving for diet soda. How we're conditioned to associate foods with feeling better and being comforted when we're sad or hurt. Why we're wired to associate past experiences and memories with our senses such as smell and taste. The cycle we go through during a moment of indulgence from being tense to just relaxed. Why it's so vital that a brain flip process occurs during their moment of indulging in something such as soda or ice cream.f How studying marketing is actually really beneficial for him to be able to help his clients with their cravings. His counterintuitive methods and why it works for his clients in helping them relieve emotional pain. Why we need to become a gardener for our thoughts and feelings when trying to create healthier habits. How brain flips are able to happen in just 4-6 days. What you can do in this moment to start ending negative associations with past events or memories. How to make that unsafe feeling actually feel safer when going through a brain flip and making changes in your life. What actually happens in the moment of working towards a complete brain flip. Why focusing too much on our past, faults and problems we've had could create and bring that identity into our future. How he defines generosity and how it comes into play during brain flip sessions for both ourselves and our tribe. How his brain flip therapy differs from traditional talk therapy or support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous and Overeaters Anonymous. His own experience using his brain flip method on himself to help break the connection between watching movies and ice cream eating habits. What happens after the brain flip and how we can use that for momentum to keep up with behavior change. Power Quotes From The Show "If we're conscious, then we're aware that we have these conflicts and our journey is one of ever improving alignment in some form so that we're becoming more and more aligned with who we are." - @davidmzappasodi on @wellnessforce Radio episode 229 wellnessforce.com/229 "I don't try to help people lose weight so that they can transform their lives later. I help them to drastically and intensely transform their lives right away and then I help them lose the weight. Once we have the brain flip transformation, the survival brain where ice cream no longer equals enjoyment but pain switches the flip so that being overweight no longer means feeling safe anymore but unsafe. Once the conscious brain and the survival brain are one in the same intention, it's easy to change your life and lose weight easily but you have to go through the pain of the brain flip first before you can get to that point." - David Zappasodi "I think traditional talk therapy is great in certain circumstances but in another case, the more that we focus on our past and the problems we've had, the more we create an identity where we bring that into the future and we keep perpetuating it. So, I don't have people focus on their faults at all. I have them listen to an audio of them talking about all the painful things but when they of thoughts and memories come up, we don't try to deal with it, forgive anybody, or anything like that. We just keep going with the practice and all of those mental images and emotions just iron themselves out." - David Zappasodi "Generosity is when we're willing to get out of our comfort zone and do something different which will allow us to let go of the past; to generously give it away. The saying, 'If you keep doing what you've always done, you'll keep getting what you've always gotten.' That's the opposite of generosity. Generosity is doing something different so that you get a different result. In the process of getting a different result, you're letting go and generously giving away what's no longer needed." - David Zappasodi   Links From Today's Show David Zappasodi Facebook Twitter LinkedIn YouTube Vimeo Immovable Heart Unstoppable Mind by David Zappasodi Brain Flip Weight Loss with David Zappasodi Presentation: Brain Flip Weight Loss WFR 072 Immovable Heart Unstoppable Mind with David Zappasodi Book a call with David The Biology of Belief by Bruce Lipton David: About The Author of Immovable Heart Unstoppable Mind Immovable Hearts: About the Book 4 Shifts To Absolute Weight Loss - Linda's Testimonial The ONE THING That Creates Obstacles to Weight Loss David Zappasodi on Fox 11 - Santa Barbara David Zappasodi on The Morning Blend About David Zappasodi David Zappasodi is the founder of Empowered Health Now.

JOIN THE FACEBOOK GROUP | REVIEW THIS PODCAST  Paul Chek: The Revolution Is Coming | Part 3 In Part 3, Paul Chek uncovers: How to identify where you're out of balance so you can use a holistic approach to develop core values that will help you heal. What depression truly is in the human mind - the fear that yesterday will be tomorrow. How to carve out time for yourself with such a busy schedule in this Western, modern society. Views on music genres such as hard rock metal or rap - Are they spreading negativity or do they allow us to embrace the darkness to complement the light? The difference between depression and anxiety. What happiness really is and why it's not having everything you ever wanted. Definition of consciousness as a psychic substance that's not produced blindly but in living awareness of opposites. The fact that the only universal constant is change. How modern culture has become afraid of change rather than seeing it as an invitation to embrace something new and exciting. What it means to be in a real, loving relationship with someone. How to grow and give both your full love and attention to your significant other. Steps to make yourself happy rather than relying on your partner. How to work through difficult times by working with a focus on the labor of love instead of on money. The process he works through with people to help them find their real dream, happiness in their struggles, and identify what challenges have actually helped them grow. The polarity between both men and women in our masculinity and feminity. How men can better treat women in a loving relationship. What wellness means to him and how we can live a life focused on health, self-care, and being conscious. Power Quotes From Part 3 "Your 'yes' has no value until you learn how to say, 'no.' Until you know what your own core value system is, you'll make poor, unhealthy decisions that make you unhappy because you haven't learned how to say, 'no.' Once you understand what your values are, you can shift and move your energy in alignment with your dream." - Paul Chek "If you're listening to sad music when you're sad but you're not taking action to create happiness, then you're actually just medicating yourself with the illness." - Paul Chek "Consciousness is a psychic substance produced not blindly but in living awareness of opposites." - Paul Chek "Depression is the fear that yesterday will be tomorrow.

That is what we need to get back to as a society. You don't need to over exercise but you do need to exercise. You don't need to overeat but you shouldn't under eat." - Paul Chek "Plant medicines don't do the work for you; they open up your psyche and show you what's truly keeping you from being human and a citizen of the universe. From that moment, it's up to you to pick yourself up and walk through the door that they have opened up for you." - Paul Chek "Constant consumerism is an indication that we have lost connection with our soul. We have lost connection with what gives us a sensation of satiation emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. We've lost connection to what really is beautiful." - Paul Chek  "Right now, we need all hands on deck to make this world a better place. However, you can't think effectively until you're fed and rested effectively; you can't do any work until you're ready to work; you can't be loving until you're loving to yourself. You have to eat well to think well; you have to eat well to move well; you have to eat well to rest well. If you don't eat well, you can't sleep because your body is jacked up on chemicals and you're full of adrenaline and cortisol. When you see what it takes to be a healthy person, it means you have to go right back to basic principles." - Paul Chek  "A sick body has sick emotions. A sick body has a sick mind. The mind and the body mirror each other; as above so below, as below as above." - @PaulChek on @WellnessForce Radio http://bit.ly/wfpodcast   Links From Today's Show Paul Chek Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn The C.H.E.K.
