Today on the podcast Mason chats with naturopath, nutritionist, medical herbalist, and best-selling author Helen Padarin about kid's immunity, nutrition, Liver and Gallbladder flushing, and the seriously empowering works she does with kids, families, and remote indigenous communities. A big running theme in all of Helen's work as a practitioner is empowerment. Whether it be through supporting indigenous communities to continue their traditional ways of eating or her courses that focus on remedies, and hands-on tools to keep parents and children healthy; Helen is giving people the right building blocks and bridging the gap between disempowered and empowered health. Her passion is teaching people to come back to themselves, trust their intuition, and get back to centre so they can thrive in health. With 20 years’ experience as a practitioner, Helen brings so much wisdom and experience to this conversation. Helen and Mason hone in on kid's immunity, nutrition, gut health, and why not suppressing fever in children is an empowering act that builds resilience and teaches us to trust our immune system.

Tania de Jong is an inspiring woman on the path of helping others to heal. Leaving a trail of positive change and innovation wherever she sets her philanthropic vision, her most recent contribution; Alleviating the mental health crisis in Australia and eventually worldwide, is a breath of hope and fresh air. Two years ago, Tania and her husband founded the organisation Mind Medicine Australia; A charity focused on reducing the ongoing suffering caused by mental illness through effective psychedelic-assisted treatments such as medicinal psilocybin within safe clinical environments. The long-term goal: Making Psychedelic Assisted Therapies an intrinsic part of Australia's Mental Health System, significant improvement in mental health statistics, and accessibility for everyone. With the mounting pressures of life compounded by global lockdowns and their ripple effects, the current mental health crisis continues to grow, with treatments (predominantly pharmaceutical) nowhere near as effective as they could be. Before entering into a sound understanding of this topic, it's essential to know that the history of research and clinical trials for psychedelic medicines is shrouded in propaganda, censorship, and half-truths. Fueled by Nixon's War On Drugs campaign in the '50s and '60s, clinical trials and the progression in this area of medical science were brought to an abrupt halt, but as the nature of truth goes, it finds a way, somehow. Enter Mind Medicine Australia; A charity organisation that funds clinical psychedelic research conducted by independent associations and affiliates, set to change the face of Mental Illness. Tune in for this epic conversation as Mase and Tania discuss the future of healing and Psychedelic Assisted Therapies.   Mase and Tania discuss: -Holotropic Breathwork. -The mental illness pandemic. -Psychedelic Assisted Therapies. -The screening process of patients.  -Decentralised use of psychedelics. -Nixon's War On Drugs and propaganda. -Federal/State legislation and accessibility. -TGA-Special Access schemes and pathways.  -Qualifications needed to become a trained therapist. -Making Psychedelic Assisted Therapies accessible to all Australians.   Resources: Mind Medicine Australia Tania de Jong's website Tania de Jong Facebook Creative Universe website Creativity Australia website Tania de Jong TED Talk-How Singing Together Changes The Brain   Check Out The Transcript Here: https://www.superfeast.com.au/blogs/articles/psychedelic-assisted-therapies-mental-health-with-tania-de-jong-ep-124  

Today on the podcast, we're bringing ancient teachings to life as we journey through the Daoist delineation of the human psyche by way of storytelling. In this transformative conversation, Mason and Yin yoga, meditation, and medical Qigong practitioner Stephanie Nosco discuss the Wu Shen, also known as The Five Spirits; A system of spiritual descent, allowing us to live out our Dao through bringing the light of Heaven down to Earth, and alchemising pain into growth. Stephanie's transfer of knowledge and her ability to bring this elusive spiritual system to life through story and metaphor is brilliant. This intrinsic part of the Daoist teachings can't be measured or quantified but is the consciousness behind everything. Descending from the Heavens with Shen and moving through Hun, Yi, Po, and Zhi, Stephanie takes us on a journey, pulling out the light and different expressions of each spirit along the way. In a realm of work she's so passionate about Stephanie expresses that compassion for ourselves is essential on this path of healing. For true transformation, wisdom, and inspiration will arise from our psyche, only when we are willing to go into the murky depths to do the work, and begin to consciously live out our Dao. Tune in for wisdom.   Mason and Stephanie discuss: -The Five Spirits. -The spirit of the organs. -Mingmen and our destiny. -The wisdom in storytelling. -Bringing Shen into the body. -Practices to nourish the Hun. -Hun disturbance and depression. -Practices to help the Yi spirit. -Po disturbance and breathwork. -Medical Qigong to nourish the five spirits. -Yin yoga as an avenue to explore the spirit dimension.   Resources: Nosco Yoga Stephanie's Instagram Stephanie's Facebook Yin Yoga Teacher Training  Rooted In Spirit Book Sarah Powers Yoga   Check Out The Transcript Here: https://www.superfeast.com.au/blogs/articles/the-wu-shen-and-alchemy-verse-ascension-with-stephanie-nosco-ep-123

It's time again for our guiding seasonal podcast with Tahnee and Mason, where they tune into the energetics, undertones, and wisdom of the season within Daoism. With 30 days of Jing in full swing, and people easing back off stimulants, this episode couldn't have landed at a better time. In Daoism, the season of Winter is associated with the element of water and the wonderful Kidneys. The Kidneys are the bedrock of our yin/yang energy, a storehouse for our Jing, and govern the regulation of fluids in our body. Of all the seasons, Winter is the most Yin. The beauty to be found in this season comes from allowing space for introspection, reflection, restoration, and the inner alchemy of the kidneys, transforming fear into wisdom. As with all the seasons we move through, Tahnee and Mason translate a fluent foundation of what embodying this season looks like; The warming foods to eat, herbs to have on hand, and practices that best support us, both in this season and in this point in time collectively. Dress for the elements, protect your Qi with layers and woolies, observe Mother Nature; And as the sun sets early and rises late, so should we flow with her motion and allow our bodies to rest, and consolidate our essence into Jing. Tune in   Mase and Tahnee discuss:   -The energetics of Winter. -Why rest is crucial in Winter. -Herbs and foods for Winter. -Observing fear-kidney related. -Transforming fear into wisdom. -Balancing Yin and Yang energy. -The esoteric nature of the Kidneys. -The Water element and the Kidneys. -What menstruation blood says about our Jing essence. -Practices and meditations to support us through Winter.   Resources: Jing Tonic Chaga Deer Antler 30 days of Jing Sleep-Our Top 10 Tips Yoga Nidra    Check Out The Transcript Here: https://www.superfeast.com.au/blogs/articles/winter-the-water-element-and-rest-with-tahnee-mason-taylor-ep-121

Tracy Duhs is a modern wellness hydration expert that has devoted her life to helping people awaken their vitality and feel alive. An educator, founder of two naturopathic clinics, and host of the podcast 'Hydrate with Tracy Duhs'; Through research on the vibrational frequency of the voice, sound, and how it affects our immune system, Tracy's approach to healing took a turning point. "I found out that our bodies are 98.9% water molecules, and water is the source-receiver of all information that we're in contact with. I realised that the words I was saying, and thoughts I was thinking we're imprinting the body of water that I am". For a deeper understanding of this theory, you needn't look any further than Dr. Masaru Emoto's work around crystals formed in frozen water and the changes that occur when concentrated thoughts are directed towards them. Emoto discovered that water from clear springs and water exposed to loving words showed radiant, complex, and colourful snowflake patterns. Contrastingly, polluted water, or water exposed to negative thoughts, formed incomplete patterns with dull colours. Tracy's education and healing work is underpinned by the belief that our cells have their own innate intelligence, and by removing the obstacles for healing, giving the body the building blocks for biogenesis, and allowing our cells to do what they know how to do, we can thrive in good health. In this energised chat, Mason and Tracy discuss the nature and different qualities of water, with Tracy giving her best guidance on how to access mineral-rich water, build back up filtered water, and the types of adulterated, traumatised water we should avoid. Be sure to tune in for this epic information, and so much more!   Mason and Tracy discuss: -Eating for hydration. -Quinton and its benefits. -The fourth phase of water. -Deuterium depleted water. -The crystalline structure of water. -Hydration through your movement. -The benefits of molecular hydrogen. -Creating a hydration focused lifestyle. -Why hydration is not just about water. -Gratefulness to build up the structure of water in our body. -Filtered water; Not as good for your health as you may think. -Metabolic water; The purest most deuterium depleted, structured water there is.    Resources: Tracy's website Tracy's Facebook Tracy's Instagram graceandparker.com Hydrate with Tracy podcast Hydrate with Tracy Duhs (Book)   Check Out The Transcript Here: https://www.superfeast.com.au/blogs/articles/are-you-dehydrated-hydrate-with-tracy-duhs-ep-118
