[13:30] A Journey to Rewire for Freedom from Eating Patterns and Beyond -       Errin emphasizes the significance of understanding how the brain is wired, particularly in relation to eating habits. She describes a pattern where her brain was wired from a young age to associate various emotions and situations with the act of eating. This includes eating when stressed, happy, or bored. -       She mentions that the brain can be rewired over time, offering freedom from patterns like binge eating, anxiety, and stress. -       Errin suggests that the process of rewiring the brain not only applies to binge eating but can also address other behaviors such as anxiety and stress. She emphasizes the potential for absolute freedom on the other side of this rewiring process. -       Errin's insights highlight the complexity of brain rewiring, the potential for freedom from ingrained behaviors, and the individualized nature of the journey to health. [19:10] Errin's Transformative Path from Disordered Eating to Wholesome Wellness -       Errin acknowledges that overcoming her disordered eating habits was not an immediate process. Letting go of these habits, which provided joy in a stressful job, took at least a couple of years. -       Errin mentions practicing "shame fasting" and highlights how disconnection from herself and her surroundings was a significant part of her struggle. -       Her reliance on food for joy and comfort made breaking the cycle challenging, emphasizing the emotional aspect of the journey. -       Errin describes making gradual but impactful shifts in her dietary choices. She moved away from excessive fat bombs and processed foods, opting for whole foods instead. Cooking from home, reducing reliance on seed oils, and focusing on quality sleep became essential elements in her journey to better health. [29:50] Wellness through a Carnivore Approach -       Errin emphasizes the need to break free from the dogma and recognize that individual experiences and transformations may vary. -       Errin shares a significant shift in her health journey by adopting a more carnivore approach, focusing on consuming more protein from grass-fed, grass-finished beef. This change, combined with weightlifting, sleep, and other factors, became a game-changer for her well-being. -       Errin notes that practices such as incorporating more grass-fed beef into her diet and prioritizing sleep might seem too simple, but they had a profound impact on her overall well-being. -       Errin expresses a desire to share her experiences, particularly regarding the benefits of a beef-centric diet, with women struggling with binge eating disorders. She believes that the simple act of incorporating beef into meals could potentially help many women achieve positive transformations in their relationship with food. [32:45] Salty Wisdom: Unlocking the Vital Role of Salt in a Keto Journey -       Errin learned a valuable lesson about the importance of salt in her keto journey. Not taking in enough salt contributed to adrenal fatigue and heightened stress levels. -       She emphasizes the significance of incorporating sufficient salt into her routine, particularly in the morning. -       Errin reflects on her experience with Bulletproof coffee and fasting, highlighting that what works for one person may not work for another. She found that she personally needs fat and protein from beef in the morning, and this realization became a game-changer for her overall well-being. -       Incorporating a beef breakfast with sea salt and an egg had a profound impact on Errin's energy levels and overall feeling of well-being. She describes it as a complete turnaround and emphasizes the importance of understanding one's own nutritional needs, especially in the morning. [40:00] Errin's Exploration of Deeper Desires Beyond Food -       Errin emphasizes the importance of discovering the root cause of cravings, looking beyond emotional eating, binge eating, and food addiction. She believes that underneath these behaviors, individuals are often craving something deeper than just food. -       Errin interprets the core craving as a desire for connection to oneself. She highlights moments in life when people are fully engaged, such as celebrating a victory at a football game, dancing at a wedding, or witnessing joyous events like Christmas morning. In those moments, individuals are not preoccupied with food but are deeply connected and alive. -       Errin acknowledges the spiritual side of the deep dive into cravings. She shares her personal journey of pushing away spirituality due to toxic perfectionism in her Christian upbringing. However, she recognizes the importance of reconnecting with a higher power and finding purpose as part of the journey to peace from the inside out. AND MUCH MORE!

Today, I am blessed to have Dr. Russell Kennedy here with me. He is a medical practitioner who also holds a degree in neuroscience and is dedicated to assisting those with mental illness. In addition, he is the author of the book Anxiety Rx, a certified yoga instructor, a speaker with the National Speakers Bureau. For many years, he worked as a doctor during the day and a stand-up comedian at night, appearing in comedy clubs all over the country. His expertise is anxiety because he too suffered from it for a long time and wants to prevent others from going through what he did. He is well-known as The Anxiety MD.  Dr. Kennedy grew up with a father who had a lot of challenges and essentially faced many challenges himself. His father had schizophrenia and bipolar disorder and had a lot of trauma in his environment growing up. One of the reasons Dr. Kennedy became a physician was his feeling of impotence watching his dad decline over and over and he wanted to have power over illness somewhat. In this episode, Dr. Kennedy speaks about his experiences with mental illnesses. He also talks about his challenges growing up with a mentally challenged father and how he was able to transform into the man of medicine he is today.

One of his teachers eventually became his patient and they had a laugh about the past. His seventh-grade bully also came to him as a patient. Meeting him was one of his biggest lessons he learned while practicing medicine. He realized that the bully was traumatized from childhood and took it out in the only place that he could. You cannot compare traumas. [13:00] The Biggest Enemy in Healing Anxiety You cannot expect a book to heal your anxiety. It only provides you with the framework, the work is yours to do. The biggest enemy in healing anxiety is an overprotective ego. An overprotective ego doesn't let you go back and experience the same pain that you were used to. Unless you can go back and feel it, you can't bring it to the surface, a place where you can start changing. You cannot change them unless you use feeling to change them. [29:13] Changing Your Physiology in Combination with Mindset The biggest thing in changing one's physiology is breathing. As soon as you focus on your breath, it naturally slows down. The mind usually runs too quickly that the body has no choice but to breathe quickly, shrinking down your chest. When your chest shrinks, it sends a message to the brainstem that you are in trouble. Your breathing becomes very shallow. [39:05] Understanding the Root of Anxiety, "Body Alarms", and Healing A lot of people don't even think to look at their body because their mind is usually moving too fast to process anything. When you are anxious or alarmed, you must investigate your body and find the cause. A lot of people who are of senior age haven't even thought of looking at the anxiety in their bodies. The mind reflects how the body feels. If you have an alarm in your system that's been there due to past trauma, your mind is going to react to it repeatedly until it becomes its go-to. [1:02:39] Unconsciously Reliving Trauma through Mind Regression If you have chronic stress like a lot of people, especially those who had a traumatic or abusive past, your mind gets pushed back into the time when you experienced such things. There is a theory that states that if you experienced a significant trauma as a child, part of you stays locked at that certain age until it gets brought back up. Mirror work deals with this by reminding yourself that you are living in the present. AND MUCH MORE!

With a passion for video production, Alastair has made a significant mark in the world of journalism, capturing attention with his engaging and insightful content. In this episode, Alastair dives into the intricate interplay between UV light and opioid receptors. Alastair takes us through the nuanced connections between light exposure and mood disorders, shedding light on the intriguing parallels between sunlight and opioid experiences. We address opioid addiction and the dualities surrounding tanning beds, challenging conventional approaches with the potential of UV light as a substitute. Lastly, we cover the controversy surrounding sunblocks, navigating discussions involving dermatologists, and emphasizing a balanced perspective on skin cancer prevention and vitamin D synthesis.

Head to http://www.beamminerals.com and use the coupon code AZADI for a sweet discount!  [06:15] Exploring the Impact of UV Light on Opioid Receptors -       Alastair based his hypothesis on research papers he uncovered, particularly focusing on UV light's effects on opioid receptors in the brain. -       He spoke to a doctor at Mass General who was conducting research on this topic, primarily with mice. The hypothesis suggested that UV light could affect opioid receptors in human brains. -       Alastair took a proactive approach to test his hypothesis by exposing himself aggressively to UV light. Living in New York City, he deliberately spent two hours in the sun every day during the summer, in addition to using a tanning bed vigorously. The goal was to maximize exposure to UV light. -       Alastair was strategic about the timing of UV exposure, going out between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., which is considered the highest UV index. He aimed to expose himself during the peak hours of UV intensity to enhance the effectiveness of the experiment. [08:30] Narcan's Swift Action and Alastair's UV Light Experiment -       Narcan rapidly detaches substances that bind to opioid receptors in the brain. It acts quickly, causing not only a reversal of the respiratory effects but also inducing withdrawal symptoms if the person is not breathing. This mechanism serves as the basis for Alastair's experiment. -       Alastair hypothesized that if there is a correlation between UV light and the opioid effect in the brain, Narcan, known to work on normal opioid usage, should have a similar effect in the presence of UV light. This led him to experiment by exposing himself to UV light and then taking Narcan, resulting in a full withdrawal experience. -       According to him, the consistent results indicated that UV light does indeed affect opioid receptors in the brain. -       Alastair's experience lends support to the notion that UV light has a significant and consistent impact on opioid receptors in the brain. [12:30] An Exploration of Light, Mood, and the Subtle Opioid Influence of UV Rays -       Alastair decided to dig deeper into the connection between light exposure, particularly visible light, and mood disorders like SAD. -       He discovered that, separate from the positive effects of visible light seen in SAD treatment, there's another aspect involving UV light, which is not visible to the human eye. -       UV light, distinct from visible light, has effects on the body, including replenishing vitamin D levels and influencing opioid receptors. -       Alastair explained that UV light, over time, subtly affects human opioid receptors, similar to substances like heroin, morphine, fentanyl, and Vicodin. -       While the response is not as strong, prolonged exposure to sunlight can lead to feelings of tiredness or reinvigoration, akin to experiencing a mild opioid stimulation. This sheds light on why people may enjoy spending a day at the beach or using tanning beds to achieve a subtle opioid effect. [19:20] Addressing Opioid Addiction and Tanning Bed Dualities -       Alastair suggests that one approach to address opioid addiction is to ensure individuals receive enough sunlight and vitamin D throughout their lives. By maintaining adequate levels of vitamin D, the brain may be less likely to respond to prescription painkillers in an addictive manner, potentially preventing addiction from the outset. -       Researchers are exploring an alternative approach for individuals already abusing or dependent on opioids. Instead of traditional methods like methadone clinics, where individuals are gradually tapered off opioids, there is evidence suggesting that ultraviolet (UV) light could serve as a substitute. -       Alastair discusses the dual nature of tanning beds. While he initially doubted the concept of tanning bed addiction, he acknowledges that there is compelling evidence from esteemed researchers suggesting that tanning beds, with their potent UVA light, can be as addictive as synthetic opioids like Vicodin or Oxycodone. -       However, he also highlights the potential use of tanning beds as a tool to help individuals transition off synthetic opioids. [23:45] Sunblock Controversies: Balancing Skin Cancer Prevention and Vitamin D Synthesis -       The use of sunblock is a controversial subject, particularly in discussions involving dermatologists who often focus on skin cancer prevention. -       Overexposure to ultraviolet radiation, especially from the sun, is known to cause skin cancer. While some doctors recommend avoiding UV light and using vitamin D supplements, Alastair suggests a more relaxed approach, emphasizing the benefits of an active lifestyle and time spent outdoors. -       Some doctors advocate for sunblock as a means to prevent skin cancer, while others, like Alastair, express concerns about its potential negative impact on vitamin D synthesis. -       Alastair expresses skepticism about the marketing behind sunblocks, suggesting that it may not always be honest. [48:00] A Journey through Mood Changes and Tanning Bed Seeking Behavior -       As the seasons changed, Alastair noticed a shift in his mood and described feeling a compulsion in the back of his mind. This compulsion led to what he referred to as "tanning bed seeking behavior." -       He experienced a sense of low-level gloom and a compulsion to seek out tanning, akin to textbook drug-seeking behavior. -       Alastair was mindful of the behavioral changes he observed in himself, characterized by a compulsion to seek out tanning beds. -       He noted that the compulsion to seek out tanning eventually went away. While he initially felt the urge to address the low mood through tanning, with time, the compulsion subsided. AND MUCH MORE!

Improve Your Environment to Get Rid of Sleep Interrupters  -       To have a good sleep, you need to eliminate or manage the amount of light in your room.  -       Your circadian clock will be disrupted if you're not managing light properly. Start dimming the lights in your house or create some ambient lighting so you can see where you're going. -       You can use red light bulbs that help as well. Some people will put on some blue light bulbs and turn those on. -        Use blue light-blocking glasses. Pick one of these and try to manage darkness again about 90 minutes before your target bedtime. -       You need to check the temperature. It is advisable to sleep in a chilly place to have a good sleep. -       Boost your serotonin and get better sleep. Anything you can do to increase your serotonin will improve your sleep.  [21:58] Lack of Sleep? You Should Enhance Your Sleeping Schedule!  -       To optimize your sleeping schedule, you need to wire genetically to wake up with light.  -       Light is better than just being jarred awake with some form of alarm in raising the temperature. -       You can use melatonin which is good for falling asleep. It's good for triggering the hormonal cascade we want for deep sleep. -       You can power through that target bedtime, get that cortisol response, and your sleep is compromised. That's a good time to use melatonin to help shut your brain down and calm yourself out. -       Dream optimizer is awesome for people that wake up in the middle of the night and want to go back to bed. A couple of sprays will get you another round of sleep.  [31:30] Does Melatonin Really Help You Sleep? Let’s See!  -   Melatonin also helps regulate your body temperature, blood pressure, blood glucose, body weight, and levels of some hormones. -   Your melatonin levels start to rise when it’s dark outside, signaling your body that it’s time to sleep. They then decrease in the morning to promote wakefulness when it’s light outside. -   Melatonin also binds to receptors in your body to help you relax. Melatonin’s exact mechanisms are unclear. Research suggests that these processes may help you fall asleep. -   Melatonin is an effective supplement that may help you fall asleep, especially if you have insomnia or jet lag. It may offer other health benefits as well. [39:45] GABA: A Molecule of Chills and A Really Powerful Neurotransmitter -   Insomniacs are about 30% deficient in GABA and there's a genetic component to insomnia.  -       Supplementing with GABA can be powerful. Every form of GABA on the market is tested, and probiotics will produce neurotransmitters. -       When you take GABA, it signals through your gut to your brain that it's there, it's present, because it will not cross the blood-brain barrier. [46:58] Want to Try an Effortless Way to Track Your Sleep? Try Sleep Sensing! -       There is a pattern where your body will try to emphasize deep sleep or REM sleep; now both are happening all the time. - Only when a brain electrode is worn can you obtain reliable sleep tracking data. Pushing your brain that hard allows it to recover faster. The breakthrough Matt uses practically every night is consistently effective, and he has no problems. -       The other cool thing about the breakthrough is that you can play around with the dose. Some people get better results with one scoop, about four grams, and the full dose is two scoops.  AND MUCH MORE!

Some individuals claim to have been using peptides for decades. -       Nat provides a definition of peptides as small proteins consisting of 50 amino acids or fewer. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and peptides play a role in various biological processes. -       There is a subset of peptides called bioregulator peptides, which are extremely small (2 to 4 amino acids). These peptides have the unique ability to cross cellular membranes and reach the nucleus of the cell. -        Nat expresses frustration with the nomenclature of peptides, highlighting that the names can be confusing and challenging to navigate. [29:15] Peptide Wisdom: Exploring Efficient Delivery, Potency, and Regulatory Changes -       Nat suggests that the most efficient way to take peptides is through subcutaneous injection, similar to insulin injections used by diabetics. This method involves injecting the peptide into the layer of fat just beneath the skin using a small insulin needle. -       Nat shares a personal experience with using oxytocin as a peptide, highlighting the remarkable and powerful effects even with small amounts. She describes feeling physiological responses such as flushing, pressure in the ears, and a unique sensation in the head within a minute of application. -       Nat emphasizes the importance of respect and caution when using peptides, as they are endogenous to the human body and carry significant potency. -       Plus, Nat discusses the evolving landscape of peptides and mentions recent FDA regulations. [41:00] Optimizing Peptide Effectiveness -       Nat uses the analogy of peptides being like work crews coming in to do the work in a house. However, for the peptides to be effective, the environment needs to be conducive, and the analogy emphasizes the importance of addressing underlying issues before expecting optimal results. -       She highlights the tendency of people to focus on adding solutions without considering the need to remove obstacles first. Nat stresses the importance of clearing the terrain and addressing existing issues, infections, or distractions that may hinder the effectiveness of peptides. -       Nat discusses recent FDA regulations affecting the availability of certain peptides. -       She mentions the potential challenges faced by people with autoimmune conditions or specific infections who rely on these peptides for positive health impacts. [45:30] Mastering Peptide Balance -       Nat explains the difference between taking exogenous growth hormone (which requires a prescription and may lead to a negative feedback loop) and using growth hormone secretagogues. The latter class of peptides signals the brain to produce and release more of the body's own growth hormone without the same risk of shutting down natural production. -       The concern with peptides, particularly growth hormone secretagogues, is the potential for receptors to become numb or involute. -       Nat emphasizes the importance of cycling peptides, taking breaks, and not overdoing them. By doing so, individuals can avoid the negative feedback loop and maintain the effectiveness of the peptides. -       Nat emphasizes the need for smart and informed use of peptides, with a focus on avoiding potential issues such as receptor numbness and negative feedback loops. [47:50] Unlocking the Fountain of Youth: Bioregulator Peptides for Age Reversal -       Nat introduces the concept of bioregulator peptides, emphasizing their role in age reversal and geroprotection. -       These peptides are designed to promote healthy aging and may have anti-tumor properties, contributing to the prevention of diseases associated with aging. -       Nat mentions epitalon, a bioregulator peptide derived from the pineal gland, which is believed to have anti-tumor properties. -       Plus, Nat discusses GHK copper peptide, a unique peptide with only three amino acids. -       GHK copper activates over 4,000 genes and is known for its wide range of applications. It has notable benefits for the skin, such as upregulating collagen and elastin production, reducing scarring, and aiding in wound healing. [52:00] The Power of Bioregulators Sourced from Animal Organs and the Ancestral Tradition of Optimal Organ Nutrition -       Nat explains that bioregulators when used as supplements or injections, are sourced from the organs of animals. This leads to the insight that consuming organ meats can be a way to provide the body with the specific nutrients and compounds needed for optimal organ function. -       Nat highlights the ancestral wisdom of matching organ consumption with specific health needs. -       If someone has a heart problem, consuming heart meat may be beneficial. This aligns with traditional practices in ancestral societies where individuals ate various parts of animals to address specific health concerns. -       Nat emphasizes that in ancestral societies, organ meats were highly valued and considered the best parts of the animal. While muscle meat was consumed if nothing else was available, organs like the heart, liver, and bone marrow were seen as essential and beneficial for overall health. AND MUCH MORE!

She realized she had been struggling with health issues as she went through college and continued to experience more. Eventually, she was also diagnosed with skin cancer.     Through her recovery journey, she found her passion for being a personal trainer.     The sun is not the cause of skin cancer. Instead, it is what is happening underneath the skin. [04:50] When Nothing Seems to Work, Think Mold!     Jenn discussed how her family was residing around the Northern California farm fields where substantial power lines and other aspects that possibly have radiation affected her health.     After about two years of being healthy and feeling great, Jenn's health started deteriorating again due to her mold exposure.     If pets have similar symptoms of mold exposure, such as weight loss, it signifies unhealthy environmental changes.      Mold exposure causes estrogen elevations, resulting in weight gain, breast tenderness, and acne.     Exercise alone will not get you well in this day and age. [26:26] The Body’s Reaction to Stress     When your body is experiencing a load of stress, you have to redefine what stress is.     Hormesis is staying in this hormetic feeling, and a slight stress you adapt to is excellent. But the body will not adjust to a strenuous workout if your stress bucket is filled with different kinds of stress.     Devices such as oura rings are great tools for creating consciousness and awareness of what is happening to our bodies.  [37:25] The Root Cause of Acid Reflux & How to Get Rid of It!     The most common correlation with acid reflux is an H. pylori bacteria overgrowth.     Another common correlation with acid reflux is eating inflammatory foods like gluten and dairy or grains.     People with a stressful lifestyle tend to have H. pylori bacteria.     Keratin's purpose is to capture this oxygen free radical and protect against oxidative damage so the leaf is not destroyed. [43:51] What is the Most Accurate Test for H. pylori?     As there are different lifestyles, there are also corresponding tests for testing H. pylori, such as stool samples and GI map tests.     Most Vitamin Es are 95% Tocopherol, and 5% will be Tocotrienols. [47:12] The Best Tips For Supporting Liver Health     The liver helps to filter things out from getting into the gut, such as toxins and other stuff.     Since World War II, over 150,000 toxins have been introduced into our environment. Research shows us that our body encounters two pounds of toxins daily.     Because humans live longer lifespans than animals and organisms, the evolution of changes in the body takes longer.     Eat organic, minimize toxic exposure from food, manage skincare products, and keep environmental surroundings clean.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Devon & Peter. Devon is Peter’s brother-in-law. Devon is a healthcare scientist and engineer, and Peter is a food and beverage entrepreneur. Together, they created Kenetik, a healthy ketone energy drink free of sugar and caffeine, with a real fruit flavor.  Devon and Peter have known each other since their teenage years. They are hardworking, entrepreneurial, and very conscious of health and wellness. Additionally, they both have families to take care of. Dealing with their busy life, they think about how they can be efficient and excel in their work simultaneously.  This is where they discover ketones, an unknown source of energy. They start experimenting and researching ketones. The problem is they found out that ketones in the market are expensive, taste bad, and are ineffective. From there, they began to initiate their study, find sources, get ingredients, and finally create their product called Ketenik, a high-quality exogenous ketone.  In this episode, Devon and Peter talk about what exogenous ketones are and their benefits, and how drinking ketones boost your brain power. Devon and Peter discuss the different types of ketones and the difference between their products of other companies. Devon and Peter dive in about the help of ketones in dealing with radiation. Tune in as we chat about the exogenous ketones, the boost it brings to our body, their pros and cons, and the best time to drink Ketenik.

[29:36] The best time to use the kenetik exogenous ketone drinks -       Normally, morning is the best time to drink kenetik. -       Ketones can be used before a workout to have energy without elevating the heart rate.   -       When you must keep going at night, Ketenik energy can be drunk instead of coffee. -       Drinking Ketenik can satiate hunger when fasting. -       There is a study that shows you won't become intoxicated if you drink Ketenik first. [37:48] How Do Ketones Protect Us from Radiation and Magnetic Fields? -       A study shows 60% reduction in chromosomal injury after exposure to gamma radiation when supplemented with ketones. -       Consuming Ketones will help people with the APOE4 gene since they do not metabolize glucose but do metabolize ketones. -       People with Alzheimer's can still use ketones for energy for their brains. [42:32] Using Ketones to Increase BHB and Handle Reactive Hypoglycemia -       Increasing 0.8 Beta-hydroxybutyrate with 10 grams of Keteniks takes about 20 to 30 minutes, and it’ll be above 2.0. -        It will depend on a person's body size and other factors. -        It is interesting to see the result of using exogenous ketones to shift faster out of reactive hypoglycemia.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. John Demartini. He is a polymath and a world-renowned human behavior expert. Students have described his work as the "most comprehensive body of work” and "an extensive library of wisdom.” Dr. John Demartini's mission and vision is to share knowledge and wisdom that empowers you to become a master of your own life and destiny. He's an internationally published author, a global educator, and the founder of the Demartini Method, a revolutionary tool in modern psychology. His education curriculum ranges from personal growth seminars to corporate empowerment programs. His teachings synthesize knowledge and wisdom from the greatest minds through history, and his curriculum is designed to help you empower and inspire all seven areas of your life. In this episode, Dr. Demartini joins the show to talk about how symptoms are your body’s way of telling you something is wrong. When you have a symptom, your body tries to guide you on moderating your behavior and living wisely. Tough conversations can even lead to symptoms; for instance, your sympathetic nervous system activates during a problematic confrontation, and blood sugar increases. Tune in as we chat about why judging people harms your health and how the right job can be great for your cardiovascular system.

Instead, you should eat to perform at your peak.  You won’t have symptoms out of the blue when you eat moderately quality foods. You can always trace your symptoms to a reason.  Sadly, we have overlooked what the body’s wisdom is.  The Wisdom of The Body: https://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Body-Walter-B-Cannon/dp/0393002055/benazadi-20 [08:55] How The Sympathetic Nervous System Can Increase Blood Sugar Doctors are notorious for asking diabetes patients not to eat sugar and gain weight. However, these patients don’t often want to be told what to do.  During these tough conversations, when someone has their sympathetic nervous system activated their blood sugar increases.  Sadly, we don’t give people their accountability back to change their health.  You can get a biochemical imbalance because you store up psychological issues that keep affecting hormones and transmitters.  [28:50] You Can Take Control of Your Own Recovery and Your Own Life  Take command of your life. Find alternatives to your health problems. There is no reason to exclude a health alternative.  Love, Medicine and Miracles: Lessons Learned about Self-Healing from a Surgeon's Experience with Exceptional Patients: https://www.amazon.com/Love-Medicine-Miracles-Self-Healing-Exceptional/dp/0060919833/benazadi-20 Overall, patients can participate in their own recovery.  [44:25] The Right Job Is Good For Your Health and Cardiovascular Risk Most people have the Monday morning blues.  Sadly, many people are not inspired by their work. If you have an imbalance in cytokines, your immune system responds. You will have serious problems if your sympathetic and parasympathetic are out of balance.  When someone is inspired by their work, their heart rate variability increases, their cytokines are normal, their blood pressure is down, and they don’t have any cardiovascular risk.  [50:40] Why Judging Other People Is Harmful To Your Health  When you look up to people, you minimize yourself, and your parasympathetic system dominates.  When you look down on people and resent them, you exaggerate yourself, and your sympathetic system dominates.  Whenever you judge, you feel empty.  Instead, we want to feel fulfilled; love fulfills.

Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Sharon Stills. She is a Naturopathic Medical Doctor who helps perimenopausal and menopausal women to pause and evaluate life so they can live the second act of their story stronger, healthier, and sexier while aging backward. Using her 20+ years of experience and extensive training and background in European Biological Medicine, anti-aging therapies, and Bio-identical Hormone Replacement, she has successfully helped thousands of women transition gently through the different stages of their lives with all natural methods. Dr. Stills is passionate about spreading the word about her signature RED Hot Sexy Meno(pause) Program – the philosophy she developed for you to Reinvent your Health, Explore your Spirit and Discover YOUR Sexy so that you, too, can create and live the life you desire and deserve! She founded and ran one of the largest and most successful naturopathic clinics in the country for a decade and is the host of The Science Of Self Healing podcast. In this episode, Dr. Stills dives into all things hormones. One of her favorite hormones for women is progesterone. If you are anxious, nervous, not sleeping, and carrying around water weight, getting progesterone can be a total game-changer for your life. Dr. Stills explains how castor oil packs are great for liver health and menstruating women. Plus, Dr. Stills gives other tips on keeping your liver in tip-top shape.
