Consciousness, Intentionality & Alignment for a High Performance Life | Finnian Kelly

Angela is joined by Finnian Kelly, who shares his transformative journey from a life driven by hustle and external validation to one focused on personal mastery and intentional living. Finnian discusses the importance of grounding oneself in feelings rather than outcomes, emphasising that true fulfilment comes from within, as well as exploring the concept of belief loops and how our subconscious shapes our experiences, particularly in relationships and financial abundance.   MAIN TAKEAWAYS Internal Alignment Over External Validation: True fulfillment and success come from within, and external achievements are merely reflections of your internal state. Focusing on internal alignment helps you find peace and satisfaction. Intentional Living Leads to Mastery: Living with intentionality, where feelings come first, can lead to deeper fulfillment and personal mastery. Aligning actions with desired feelings allows for a more purposeful and fulfilling life. Manifestation Requires Clarity and Belief: Manifesting desired outcomes is a disciplined practice involving clarity, belief, and intention. Trust in the unseen and act as if your desired reality is already happening to bring it into existence. Breath Work as a Powerful Tool: Breath work helps access the subconscious mind and regulate energy throughout the day. It can be used to clear negative emotions, find alignment, and connect to your true self. Reprogramming Negative Belief Loops: Negative patterns and behaviors are rooted in subconscious belief loops. By bringing awareness to these patterns and feeling through them, you can reprogram your mind and create new, positive outcomes.   TIMESTAMPS & KEY TOPICS  00:04 – Introduction to the episode 01:49 – Finnian's journey from hustle to intentional living. 06:55 – Mastery through value, not scaling. 09:21 – Growing through trauma and challenges. 15:04 – Reprogramming negative belief loops. 19:42 – Understanding belief loops and patterns. 23:48 – Universal Mind and subconscious connection. 30:31 – Breaking repetitive patterns in life. 37:40 – Using breath work for energy and grounding. 43:12 – Embracing discomfort for transformation. 49:05 – Science behind manifestation: clarity, belief, and trust. 53:28 – Letting go of time constraints in manifestation.   VALUABLE RESOURCES Get a free snapshot of your health and personalised report at www.yourtotalhealthcheck.com Join The High Performance Health CommunityFree Fasting Guide - www.angelafosterperformance.com/fasting   ABOUT THE HOST Angela Foster is an award winning Nutritionist, Health & Performance Coach, Speaker and Host of the High Performance Health podcast.

Unlocking Peak Performance: How Sleep Position Impacts Metabolism, Recovery and Health with Dr Peter Martone

Angela welcomes Dr. Peter Martone, an expert in sleep biomechanics, to discuss the critical impact of sleep positioning on overall health and well-being. Dr. Martone shares insights on how proper spinal alignment during sleep can enhance restorative sleep, improve heart rate variability (HRV), and regulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which is essential for reducing stress and promoting recovery. The conversation delves into the concept of the "triune of sleep," emphasising the importance of alignment, subconscious safety, and conscious relaxation techniques   MAIN TAKEAWAYS The Sleep Triune: Alignment, Safety, and Subconscious Control: Dr Martone presents the Sleep Triune, explaining that true sleep quality starts with proper alignment. If the body is misaligned during sleep, it leads to subconscious pain, causing tossing and turning throughout the night. Corrective Sleep Positioning for Spinal Health:  The ideal sleep position is lying on the back with arms at the side, legs straight, and a pillow under the neck (not the head). This position supports the natural cervical curve and prevents long-term structural problems. Sleep Avatars: Personalising Sleep Based on Subconscious Patterns:  Dr Martone categorises sleepers into three avatars—Armadillo, Gorilla, and Ostrich—based on their subconscious sleep habits. Understanding your sleep type can help tailor strategies to improve both sleep quality and overall health. Optimising the Vagus Nerve for Better Health: Misalignment in the cervical spine can compress the vagus nerve, leading to a range of issues, from poor digestion and immune system dysfunction to anxiety and depression. Aligning the neck properly during sleep can enhance vagus nerve function and improve parasympathetic tone. Breathing Techniques to Calm the Mind: Focusing on long exhalations rather than inhalations helps calm the mind and body. Dr Martone recommends a simple technique: breathe in slowly, let the breath out even more slowly, and pause before inhaling again.   TIMESTAMPS & KEY TOPICS 00:01 – Introduction to Dr Peter Martone and the role of sleep positioning in health. 01:41 – The Sleep Triune: Why proper alignment is crucial for sleep and health. 06:51 – Corrective sleeping position: Back sleep with pillow under the neck, not the head. 13:15 – Understanding the three sleep avatars: Armadillo, Gorilla, and Ostrich. 21:07 – Impact of vagus nerve compression on parasympathetic function. 33:49 – Strategies to calm the subconscious: Pressure points and breathing techniques. 37:42 – Importance of exhaling for falling asleep: A simple breathing exercise. 41:28 – Customising sleep strategies based on sleep avatars. 42:42 – How sleep posture impacts your ability to create the reality you want. 45:15 – Call to Action: Take the Animal Sleep Avatar Quiz at DoctorSleepRight.com.
