Unstress with Dr Ron Ehrlich

Today's episode is a little different because I had the pleasure of catching up with my guest in my own home studio and we did the interview face to face, which reminded me of what I believe we've all learned as a result of this pandemic. And that is, while we have access to online communication, nothing beats talking and looking at people's faces and examining body language and facial expressions and experiencing that connection with someone, which I had the pleasure of doing today. My guest is Dr Traill Dowie who is the Chair of the Australian Counselling Association (ACA) Panel for Trauma Standards & Practice, he is also the Head of Faculty at Ikon Institute Australia, and is a practising psychotherapist, supervisor and public speaker. He holds dual PhDs, receiving a PhD in Psychiatry from Monash University and a PhD in Philosophy from The University of Melbourne. He is also co-director of the Mind Medicine Institute, and I recently had the pleasure of talking to his co-director, integrative psychologist, Nigel Denning. So these two episodes really do dovetail with each other really well.   For more on Dr Traill Dowie, head to his website: https://www.trailldowie.com/ For more on Mind Medicine Institute: https://mindmedicineaustralia.org.au/ For more on Ikon Institute of Australia: https://ikon.edu.au/   ** DISCLAIMER** This program is not intended to encourage the use of illegal substances.

Do you know that there is a specialist who can help you with your sleep problems, too? We've talked a lot about getting adequate sleep, but I don't think we've covered everything there is to know about it. Today, we are talking to one of Australia's leading experts in this field.

He is widely known for his work with sleep studies in children, and in particular children with special needs, orthodontic problems and gastrointestinal issues.

Lessons from the past is a theme I’ve been exploring for quite a while now. How these lessons inform our future is a really exciting concept. In this Healthy Bite, let’s talk about Tyson Yunkaporta’s book, Sand Talk. Through the eyes of an Indigenous person, he attempts to convey a picture of the modern world to his readers. I also recommend two other books that you could read about Indigenous culture.

As you know in our previous Healthy Bite episodes, we have identified many “Ps” on how we approach this pandemic. Well, I have another P that I think is a great addition to this list.

Let’s also touch on the pandemic, vaccines, and so much more.  ----  You can also watch this episode at https://drronehrlich.com/  ----- TIME TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH?

Sadly, in our health system, whether we’re talking about chronic disease management, whether we’re talking about mental health, physical health, whether we are talking even about the pandemic I have identified this list of Ps that seem to drive our approach in many of our approaches to health in our system. Join me in this Healthy Bite as I talk about immune function, the Ps affecting our approach in this pandemic, and the highlights of my conversation with Dr Olivia Lesslar. ----  You can also watch this episode at https://drronehrlich.com/  ----- TIME TO TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH?
