Why Meditation Won’t Heal Your Pain with Matthew Zoltan (part 1) | EP 311
Have you tried meditating many times before now? If you’re like me then you’ve done a lot of meditating and it didn’t really do much. It may bring temporary relief but generally speaking, it doesn’t change or heal your painful experiences or emotions. That might be a controversial statement and maybe your experience has been different , either way I’d invite you to listen to this episode and it’s the most logical view that I’ve ever seen on healing emotional pain and trauma that guys far beyond talk therapy and spirituality. Even if it’s not you, I think hearing these ideas will add to your perspective in a really useful way. In this episode we chat about:How old meditation traditions keep you stuck in your problemsWhy spirituality causes you to detach from reality Narcissism is a big problem in spirituality Why thinking during meditation is damaging to healingIf we are a mental-spiritual being then we’ve got an overthinking problemYou are not a bad person for being negatively affected by your reality Religion helps me accept life now - which is a fear of the present momentWe’re not inadequate we’re born whole - you’re not here to improve or transformYou don’t even know yourself until you experience yourself how you really areThe most damaged person has been through something hurtful When you mentally react it causes more emotional pain Hurt people hurt people because the damage inside us has not been resolved - that's why we feel unable to manage ourselves Why it’s hard to grow up and act like an adult How sexual trauma can lead to really hard relationships both emotionally and intimately Creating healthy sexual relationships ***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?

Is Supermarket Meat from a Factory Farm Really That Bad? with Farmers Tara & Natalie | EP 309
When you hear “factory farming” do you think,.. bad? When you hear “regenerative farming” I’m guessing you hear,.. good! The reality is that these are 2 very large blanket terms that include all of the best and all of the worst possible things that are to do with farming and in this episode we unpack what those terms specifically mean from a farming perspective and from a nutrition and consumer perspective, a.k.a. you going shopping at the supermarket. This episode is really going to set your mind in a new direction about how to think about food packaging but more importantly about how farms work across the world and we’re doing with 2 female farmers, Tara Vander Dussen and Natalie Kovarik. In this episode we talked about: Farming myths that people somehow still believe Why the farming industry has a marketing problemVegan, plant based propaganda - what is it all about? The definition of factory farming - what does it actually mean?Understanding the death process from a young ageWhere does our food come fromHow food companies mess with whole real food from the farmAdditives and ingredients that aren’t the farmers fault (or responsibility)The relationship we have with death and the lifecycle of animals Direct to consumer farming / buying your meat from the farm directly Is regenerative farming really a good thing? ***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?

The Link Between Gut Bugs and Your Sleep Issues (part 2) with Dr Stasha Gominak | EP 303
Have you listened to part 1 of this conversation? Wowee! I recommend starting there at episode 301 to get the first half of this epic conversation. To carry on… whilst vitamin D can solve some people’s sleep problems, it turns out that there are some major implications on sleep if your microbiome is missing species or whether it’s overrun with others as a result of a poor diet for a long time, the consequence can be, poor sleep. Believe it or not your guts create necessary resources for good sleep and if your gut is out of whack (whether you have physical discomfort or not) then it’s likely your sleep is too. It’s all connected and in this conversation we explain how.In this episode we discussed:How vitamin D is connected to the functionality of the microbiome Why the bacterial species in the gut are being wiped out How B vitamins are manufactured by your gut bacteriaWhy B vitamins are called B vitaminsHow your bacterial microbiome disrupts sleep Why vitamin D deficiency AND B vitamin deficiencies are causing sleep issues Which foods can we use to repopulate the gut bacteriaDo supplements work to fix these gut issues and therefore sleep issuesWhy we need the prebiotics and the probioticsWhy washing food isn’t the best idea for your gut health ***PROGRAM ENQUIRIES: Tired of yo-yo dieting and feeling stuck with food?
