Initially I was surprised to find out that poor sleep quality has been linked to financial debt and lower income. In our culture, we're led to believe that in order to be successful you've got to burn the midnight oil, keep working hard until you make it, and you can always sleep when you're dead. And there lies the problem. According to the research, if you're not more mindful of your sleep quality, your chances of dying prematurely can skyrocket. And not only that, the very money that you're sacrificing sleep to make, will be the same money you pay to try to get your health back again. Today is a powerhouse show that's going to help you optimize your sleep, be more productive, and add more vitality into your life. You're going to learn incredible insights about the connection between sleep and sex, how sleep is the secret to long-term fat loss, plus a whole lot more. Fair warning: This may cause you to have the best sleep ever!

How exercise gets you in WORSE shape temporarily. The little-known connection between sleep and physical transformation. How being overweight can damage your sleep quality. What sleep apnea has to do with The Dark Knight Rises (funny, but true.) Why you can sleep the "right" amount of hours but still wake up tired. The truth about eating late at night (this is shocking!) Why the clothes you wear to bed can drastically impact your health (ranging from cancer to low sperm count). How sex and sleep are intimately related. Why the hormone prolactin is strongly linked to sleep (and how to produce more of it.) The surprising impact poor sleep quality can have on your finances.

Everyday, people all over the world are adopting a healthier lifestyle. More people are going vegan, paleo, primal, or "real food" than ever before. What's causing this cultural shift is: 1) people are sick and tired of being sick and tired and 2) beliefs about food bind us together, create communities, and communities inherently grow. With the internet eliminating the borders of people sharing ideas, beliefs, and insights, these communities are expanding rapidly. Even though the health conversation has exploded worldwide, different views by different communities can bring people together AND tear people apart. We're going to talk in depth about this today.

She's going to share the intimate effects it had on her life, as well as our culture at large.

I recently gave a short presentation in front of a group of over 7,000 people. They were all there as cancer survivors, or the loved ones of those who've survived or who have lost their fight. This event really sparked something in me. To witness a sea of people all coming together for one purpose, but to not know what the cause of this disease is really broke my heart. Honestly, I have spoken for audiences big and small; high pressure situations and euphoric situations alike. None of those instances phased me much. But this event made it difficult for me to speak. I wanted to yell, and scream that this doesn't have to happen! I wanted to take each person by the hand, sit them down, and talk about how we can end this struggle, and make a better life for our future generations. Instead, I had just a few minutes to give them some hope... And to give them something valuable to walk away with to better the chances in their fight. Well, I know that fighting is not the road to take. It's bigger than a fight. It's something more courageous. It's having the audacity to love yourself enough that you will pay unyielding attention to yourself. You will finally pay attention to your body, pay attention to the nutrition it requires; the movement it requires; the rest it requires; and the appreciation it requires to make you the best you possible. In this episode you're going to hear from bestselling author Ty Bollinger about how we can make this happen. You're going to learn how we can take our power back as free, sovereign individuals to live a life that's worthy of us. You don't have to be afraid of cancer. This episode will prove it to you.

As a matter of fact, there are countless people who've eliminated cancer from their body through what Ty is sharing that will tell you it was actually the beginning of their story. Including Kristy, whose scans are below showing what's possible in as little as one month. Enjoy this episode and share it generously! In this episode you'll discover: 3 things to address immediately if conventional physicians give you a cancer diagnosis. How the nocebo effect can take your life faster than cancer will. The story of Kristy, the young mother of 3 who was diagnosed with breast cancer (see her scans below.) How the function of your internal organs impacts cancer development. What 3 specific phases I use to assist many cancer patients. What storied medicinal mushroom can incite programmed cell death in cancer cells.

In this episode of The Model Health Show we're looking at the many benefits of massage therapy. Massage has been clinically proven to help reduce depression and anxiety, improve hormone function, and boost the immune system. There are very few treatments that have such a wide array of benefits, and the history of massage itself may surprise you. Massage therapy is documented in some of the most storied ancient traditions (which you'll learn about today). Yet, even though it has a rich history, and it's clinically proven to be effective, massage has it fallen out of practice in modern medicine. Today you're going to understand why, and how massage is making a huge comeback in treatment for health and wellness. There are many forms and "styles" of massage to choose from. I've personally experienced deep tissue massage, Thai massage, reflexology, sports massage, Swedish massage, and even massage derived from Ayurveda. They all have unique aspects, but they all provide tremendous value when administered by a trained massage therapist. If you haven't gotten a massage for a while, this show is definitely going to inspire you to take that extra care of yourself, and make massage therapy a more consistent part of your life. In this episode you'll discover: The surprising percentage of people who get massages. Why you need to pay attention to the oils and lotions you put on your skin. Which ancient cultures utilized massage as a cornerstone of health. What Hippocrates, the "father of modern medicine", had to say about massage. Why massage has been pulled out of hospitals and replaced by medication. The different bodily systems that massage can help. What "feel good hormone" is instantly increased when touched by another person. Why massage is far better for localizing treatment than drugs are. How massage assists systemic healing too. The incredible clinical studies that show the benefits of massage. The impact that massage has on hormone and immune function. How massage intelligently affects inflammation. A surprising study showing how massage compares to drugs for pain and functionality. When the best time to get a massage is if you workout. The incredible impact massage has on infants and premature babies. The dangers of taking antibiotics haphazardly. What some of the best forms of massage are. What the benefits of deep tissue massage are (and my Karate Man story). How often you are recommended to get a massage.

In this episode of The Model Health Show we're sharing exercise secrets for a better body and better health. When it comes to exercise programs, there isn't really much new under the sun. Whatever's popular has usually been here before in some form or fashion. P90-X, Bootcamps, Supersets, drop sets, 300 different types of yoga, pilates, sprint training, cross fit, and countless other exercise approaches claim to be the best thing ever, but really apply many of the same principles. Just about every form of exercise will provide incredible value if utilized in the right way. But how can we take the best pieces from these things, and put them together to get the greatest benefit in the shortest amount of time? Let me introduce you to Hybrid Training.

What my exclusive Hybrid Training Program is (get the template right here). How to warm-up before exercise in the smartest way possible. How a heavy weight lifting set affects your hormones.
