115: How to Heal Trauma & Rewire Your Energy Field Using Sound and Vibration with Eileen McKusick

What if your anxiety isn’t in your mind—but in your field?In this episode, Kelly sits down with researcher, inventor, and Biofield Tuning founder Eileen McKusick, whose groundbreaking work challenges everything we think we know about healing, consciousness, and the human body. With nearly 30 years of experience decoding the electric blueprint of the body using sound, Eileen has mapped the energetic anatomy that surrounds and informs our physical form—and she’s proving it’s more than just woo.You’ll learn how unresolved trauma shows up as electrical noise in your field, why thoughts aren’t stored in your brain, and how tuning forks can uncover—and dissolve—lifelong emotional patterns. Eileen breaks down the science of vibrational healing in language that’s as sharp as it is accessible, offering a powerful new lens for understanding everything from anxiety and chronic pain to inherited trauma and illness. Whether you're energy-curious or deep down the frequency rabbit hole, this conversation will leave you rethinking what it means to be coherent—and how to reclaim your signal.You’ll Learn:How tuning forks activate your body’s innate ability to reorganize and self-healWhat emotional tones in the biofield reveal about stored trauma and subconscious patterningWhy thoughts are stored in the energy field—not the brain—and how that changes healingHow to detect and decode the vibrational “noise” that disrupts health and flowWhat coherence in your biofield actually means—and how it drives physical resilienceHow sound interacts with the plasma body to shift emotional and physiological statesWhy most chronic symptoms stem from unresolved tension patterns, not pathologyTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[01:45] How thoughts may exist outside the brain[02:30] Practical ways to bring coherence to your energy field[03:05] The idea that humans are electric beings[05:30] What it means to live in a vibrational cosmology[08:05] Tuning forks as tools for energetic feedback[10:05] Why vibes don’t lie—reading emotion through frequency[12:10] What tuning forks reveal about emotional memory[14:05] How emotional patterns are stored in specific zones of the field[16:45] Why anyone can learn to feel energetic distortions[17:30] Memories are stored outside the body in magnetic standing waves[22:30] A shocking example of inherited trauma imprinting in the womb[27:25] The hidden role of worthiness in chronic pain and illness[29:10] What coherence actually means for your body and mind[33:00] Why injuries often occur in incoherent zones of your field[35:10] How forks imprint coherent frequency back into the system[38:00] The link between stress, bone loss, and electrical depletion[40:00] Water, memory, and the vibrational nature of the body[45:00] Rewiring subconscious loops to release stuckness[48:40] 174hz fork to deepen relaxation[51:00] How tension turns into lightness through tuning[53:30] 528hz fork to brighten the field[55:15] How tension suppresses emotional expression[57:00] Resilience as the new immunityWant to start a podcast like this one?

114: How to Regenerate Your Bones & Joints in 10 Minutes a Day | Rush Simonson

Learn more about Dr. Kelly Brogan's signature health protocol, Vital Mind Reset here.“Most ‘biohacks’ numb your body—this one helps it remember how to heal.”In this episode, Kelly sits down with Rush Simonson, Chairman and CEO of Juvent Health, a company pioneering a regenerative health tech that’s quietly disrupting everything we think we know about movement, aging, and musculoskeletal vitality. With over 25 years in medtech and surgical innovation, Rush has seen what works—and more importantly, what doesn’t—when it comes to long-term healing. His journey from spinal implants to cellular biomechanics reveals a truth most wellness circles ignore: real health is mechanical, cellular, and shockingly primal.This conversation dives deep into the science behind micro-impact, why traditional vibration plates may be doing more harm than good, and how your body’s innate regenerative systems—bone density, joint repair, lymphatic flow, proprioception—are directly linked to how often, and how effectively, you move. You’ll learn why walking barefoot could be the most powerful supplement you’re not taking, how micro-motion affects brain health and even Parkinson’s outcomes, and why this subtle technology could keep your parents out of assisted living. Whether you're a barefoot biohacker, a movement minimalist, or just looking for ways to age with more autonomy, this episode is a goldmine.You’ll Learn:How micro-impact technology activates the body’s natural regenerative systemsWhy traditional vibration plates may harm more than helpHow mechano-transduction drives cellular repair and joint healthWhat 0.05mm of calibrated movement reveals about healing efficiencyHow to simulate 5 miles of barefoot walking in just 20 minutesWhy most orthopedic implants fail long-term—and what works betterHow daily micro-impact supports lymphatic drainage and brain detoxWhat barefoot shoes get right (and how to transition safely)How proprioception training reduces fall risk and boosts longevityTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[01:42] The hidden importance of barefoot walking[02:18] What makes the Juvent plate different from vibration plates[03:12] Kelly’s personal journey with movement and muscle loss[04:45] How gym training and walking restored balance[05:36] The myth of vibration plates as a walking replacement[06:08] How Juvent mimics barefoot walking for metabolic health[08:00] How Rush became disillusioned with surgical implants[11:16] How mechano-transduction fuels cellular nutrition[13:02] Why lack of movement leads to impact deficiency[14:21] The concept of vita-kin: a daily kinetic vitamin[15:52] How Juvent delivers safe and effective micro-impact[17:06] How Juvent activates lymphatic and glymphatic systems[24:45] How small daily inputs protect future vitality[27:08] How resonance makes micro-impact effective[28:44] Juvent as a “dose-correct” physiological therapy[30:12] How Juvent improves balance and prevents falls[31:30] How cellular interaction depends on movement[32:47] How Juvent reconnects you to natural biological inputs[35:00] How Juvent helped Rush’s mother avoid a nursing home[36:28] Why Juvent supports metabolic and musculoskeletal health[37:50] Steve Harvey’s pain relief and national endorsementWant to start a podcast like this one?

Drawing from years of clinical experience and her own personal transformation, she challenges the idea that health is about fixing what’s wrong. Instead, she makes a bold case for seeing symptoms as sacred signals from your body—not nuisances to suppress, but messages to decode. You’ll learn why true power lies in ending the war within, how to stop outsourcing your sovereignty to “experts,” and how practices like German New Medicine, Family Constellations, and self-tracking can radically rewire your relationship to your body. If you’ve tried all the supplements, all the protocols, and still feel stuck, this episode might just be your way out—by showing you that healing starts when the fight ends.You’ll Learn:How resolving internal conflict reclaims energy and restores physical vitalityWhy chasing symptom relief often reinforces victim consciousnessHow the “rescuer-victim-villain” triangle keeps you stuck in chronic illnessWhat German New Medicine reveals about the hidden purpose of symptomsHow ritual self-awareness practices rewire your relationship to your bodyWhy most functional testing subtly disempowers instead of healsHow to identify the moment a symptom begins—and why that date mattersWhy reframing your symptoms can create safer internal conditions for healingHow to recognize when you’ve outsourced your authority to an “expert” disguised as a guideTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[00:38] Why biohacking and functional medicine aren’t working for many women[01:34] The one insight that changed how I see symptoms[02:08] How to decode the body’s messages without external validation[02:56] Why rejecting your symptoms creates inner conflict[03:29] How childhood conditioning disconnects us from body autonomy[04:18] The religious roots of disembodiment[05:02] Feminism and the push to transcend biology[05:35] The middle path: power through embodiment, not bypass[06:15] Why seeing the body as “just biology” leads to fragmentation[06:54] How expert dependency fuels triangulation against the self[07:28] The hidden role of the rescuer in chronic illness[08:01] Why symptoms can’t be resolved while you’re still in resistance[08:33] The most radical health practice is neutrality[09:05] What actually happens when the body feels safe[09:38] Why resolution is not about symptom elimination[10:01] How German New Medicine reframes symptom meaning[10:35] Louise Hay’s framework for decoding symptom messages[11:02] The role of Family Constellation in healing[11:42] Why symptoms often have a deeper purpose[12:14] The trap of becoming a professional patient[12:47] Why dependency in health mirrors parent-child dynamics[13:27] When it’s time to respond differently to old patterns[13:59] What secure attachment to your body actually looks like[14:30] Ending manipulation and frustration with your body[15:01] How supplements can become offerings instead of fixes[15:34] A new way to relate to illness with love and curiosity[16:00] My number one health tip: write down symptom onset dates[16:35] How this one practice speeds up your healing clarity[17:15] Symptoms are messages, not problems👉🏻 Want to start a podcast like this one?

Check out the replay of my masterclass Reclaimed Relationship here.You’re not being “nice”—you’re lying for safety.In this episode, Kelly sits down with feminine embodiment teacher and unapologetic truth-teller Perri Chase to expose the hidden cost of the fawning response—why it works, what it protects, and how it hijacks your nervous system, your relationships, and your sense of self.Perri, creator of the transformational practice Sex Bomb and a leader in modern feminine awakening, brings a raw and riveting perspective to the conversation.
