UNLOCK THE SECRET TO OPTIMAL HEALTH WITH HEART RATE VARIABILITY (HRV) | Dr. Jay T. Wiles - E50

When it comes to our health and wellness, we often focus on factors such as diet and exercise routines, as well as our mental and emotional states.

Wiles, the chief scientific officer of Hanu Health, about his background in clinical psychology and how his work with HRV has led to the development of a unique wearable device. This device can help individuals better manage stress and maintain optimal nervous system function.

COLD UNBOUNDED: ICE BATHS, SWIMMING & EMBRACING THE OUTDOORS | LISA KRICFALUSI - E43

Lisa Kricfalusi sits down with Kristin on this episode to dig into their obsession with cold water immersion and ice baths! You think you know about cold water until you see this woman get out her ice saw and cut ice holes for her clients and retreats! A true badass, inspiring speaker, and fast friend of mine - Lisa’s deep dive into health started as a young girl swimming in lakes and pools in Ontario, Canada. Her affinity for water only started to grow as she began training nationally at ten years old. This led to an eleven year national swim career in synchronized swimming and traditional racing, eventually coaching provincially as well as nationally.  Learn all you can about familial ties to cold, the love we have for our Dads, getting out into all types of the elements and mother nature for exploring cold, life on the road of self-reflection, and mental well-being in this sweet, personal chat. Lisa has developed a unique approach to cold exposure involving intention setting, breathwork, and a progressional practice ending on gratitude. Inspiring cold exposure communities everywhere, with the company she co-founded UNBOUNDED, Lisa has made it her life’s purpose to dedicate herself to this work making this method available and accessible. Lisa pursued secondary education and graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor Hons. in Kinesiology and Health Science. She supplemented this degree by becoming a yoga instructor, breathwork facilitator, hydro therapist, and cold exposure therapist. Unbounded, an experience-/lifestyle brand focused around cold exposure offerings was founded in 2020 when Lisa’s community branded their experiences. Unbounded offers local cold classes, workshops, retreats and experience living getaways. In 2022, Unbounded is expanding their offering to trainings, certifications and online education. Fun fact, Lisa has practiced this method consecutively for over 440 days ( now over 600 practices ) and claims this practice has changed her quality of life during the pandemic.   Highlights: (07:46) The Origin Story of Lisa (09:47) Female Physiology Versus Male Physiology (14:29) Grief as Transformation (21:51) The Motivation for doing cold Therapy (29:56) How to practice cold therapy the right way (37:05) The Benefits of Cold Therapy (46:28) Breathwork in Swimming (55:33) The Dangers of Adventuring Outdoors (01:14:33) Lisa’s Advice to her Younger Self   Here is the link if you want to find more info on Unbounded: https://www.stayunbounded.com/ For WELLPOWER listeners:   LIGHTPATH LED -  Want the absolute BEST red light therapy panel on the market?

GAME CHANGING NUTRITION, MUSCLE STRENGTH & LONGEVITY | DR. EMILY WERNER Ph.D., RD, CSSD - E42

Can a supplement aid in enhancing power, vigor and constancy? In today’s episode of the WELLPOWER Podcast, we are joined by Emily Werner Ph.D., RD, CSSD. who breaks down the extraordinary scientific-supported prospective benefits of Mitopure(TM)- a revolutionary new supplement making news for its capability to spark off a vital recycling procedure in cells recognized as mitophagy, obstructing age-associated cellular degeneration. Dr. Werner reveals the role of mitochondria  and explains why mitochondrial health is essential to all. The doctors explain that as we grow older, mitochondrial regeneration decreases and inadequate mitochondria pile up in the cells, leading to a variety of troubles from fall in energy levels, robustness and muscle function to more serious health troubles such as diabetes and cognitive deterioration. Dr. Werner introduces Urolithin A, a particle that boosts the indispensable recycling and cleaning process of mitochondria- in the long run safeguarding cells from age-associated deterioration. Dr. Werner discloses that 2 out of 3 people lack the appropriate gut microbiome to generate Urolithin A from food. Mitopure(TM) is a bioavailable Urol Dr. Emily Werner is in her third season as the Team Dietitian for the Philadelphia 76ers of the NBA.
