38. Dr. Robert Lyons: The Healing Properties of Liquid Oxygen
Ever heard of a Hungarian water called KAQUN? What about KAQUN Therapy? In this episode of the Hydrate podcast, Dr. Robert Lyons and I talk about his popular KAQUN bath therapy and how it benefits your health. KAQUN water originates from Hungary and has been studied for decades due to its health benefits. In its purest form, it is a type of water that naturally contains highly-bound oxygen content, which Dr. Lyons successfully recreated and now distributes here, in the United States, so we can benefit from it too. Plus, we talk about how the KAQUN water differentiates from the other water brands on the market and how exactly soaking yourself in this water can help you heal your body. Born in Hungary, Dr. Robert Lyons has conducted over 10 years of scientific studies in order to better understand the impacts of his oxygenated water on the human body. Dr. Lyons calls it“Kaqun”, pronounced 'khuh-koon’. Today, he runs a Kaqun Spa, where Kaqun Therapy and baths are offered. What we discuss: 1:21 What kind of doctor is Dr. Lyons? 5:23: Why did Dr. Lyons want to bring KAQUN water from Hungary to the United States? 9:18: Where is this water spring in Hungary? 11:36: How does the oxygen in the water benefit the body? 15:26: How does this affect your cells? 18:12: What are the total dissolved solids in this water? 18:34: How alkaline is this water? 19:48: How much of this water should someone drink on a daily basis to maintain their health? 24:16: Is it similar to dissolving a hydrogen tablet in your water? 24:57: How does the body benefit from soaking vs drinking this water? 26:06: How long should we soak in this water? 28:52: What does Dr. Lyons think about the competing oxygen waters on the market? 31:23: The beauty of “living water” 34:19: Can this water benefit those with autoimmune diseases? 37:17: How do the KAQUN baths compare to ozone therapy? 39:35: Where can we get this water? 41:30: Does this water improve the efficiency of our mitochondria?

37. Stefanos Sifandos: Why Men Love the Chase but Not the Catch
Why do men love the chase but not the catch? I’m about to get real with you…I feel like a man's eyes are on you until he gets what he's wanting and then his focus shifts to his next pursuit. Ladies, do you agree? Men, do you beg to differ? I know that's not with ALL men, but for me, it feels like a pattern. It was even something as a little girl that I paid attention to. And because of that, I always feared getting married. I feared that if I finally had a relationship with a man where we were committed forever, that he would stop pursuing me. The pursuit would be over. I’ve be so curious about this and wanting to understand this in great depth and that’s why I brought Stefanos Sifandos onto the HYDRATE podcast. In the episode, he gave me a clear understanding as to why I feel like this is a regular pattern with men, and what I can do as a woman to break it. Stefanos is a trained educator and relationship expert with a background in behavioral science. He is passionate about leading people closer to their highest potential. He helps men and women escape negative patterns and cultivate a positive sense of self as well as restructuring and re-framing their relationships with themselves and their loved ones. Whether you’re a man or woman, I know there is a part of this episode that will speak to you and bring greater awareness to your actions in your relationships.

36. Mike Belkowski: Non-Native Lights, Malillumination + Why Modern Health Needs Red Light Therapy
Are you malilluminated? What does that even mean? Well, you know what it means when someone is malnourished. It’s the same, but being malnourished with the light you’re intaking. Malillumination is not getting the correct light and bombarding yourself with non-native lights and that’s exactly what I chat about with my latest HYDRATE guest, Mike Belkowski. Mike argues that when you surrounding yourself with blue light, Bluetooth, wifi, laptop, T.V., and your cell phone, it’s just as bad as eating Mcdonald's. In today’s modern world, we are constantly exposed to non-native lighting, and getting in the correct natural lighting daily is a struggle. The two of us discuss how we can begin to increase our intake of correct lighting to ensure we’re getting a healthy dose daily for optimal health. We also discuss what non-native lights are, what they’re doing to your health, how to increase our sun tolerance, and supplementing our sun exposure with red light therapy. Mike is the founder of BioLightandis, bringing game-changing technology to red light therapy around the world. As a physical therapist, he has worked with patients across the lifespan spectrum and has an impressive amount of experience with Integrative Dry Needling, Mulligan mobilizations, cupping, and rehabilitating orthopedic pathologies, running biomechanics, and concussion injuries.

34. How Masculine and Feminine Energy Influence a Relationship with Anna Nassery and Aaron Alexander
What is masculinity? How does it differ from femininity? Why do some men feel afraid to be masculine, but women feel the need to turn down their masculine energy when in the presence of men? In this episode of Hydrate, Anna Nassery, Aaron Alexander, and I discuss how important it is to be your own true and authentic self when it comes to your energy before entering a relationship.

32. The Drip on How to Drink Cleaner Water
Is the water you’re drinking pure? I’m assuming not. Most people use carbon filters to filter their water – whether that's the filter attached to their refrigerator or the filter in their Brita. But the truth is, carbon filters are not enough for filtering your water effectively. Plus, even if they were enough, people don’t change them regularly enough to be effective anyway. And resorting to bottle water for purer water isn’t the best option either. As many of the top bottle water brands are simply just filled with tap water or still contain just as many toxins as tap water, regardless of what their claims are. So how do we ensure we're drinking the best water we can? Let me give you the drip... Learn how to distill your water here. If you loved this episode, be sure to check out...

31. What’s Wrong With Our Water?
Did you know that approximately 98.9% of the molecules in your body are water molecules and by mass, you are about 60- 70% water (a slightly salty solution of electrolytes)? Every single biochemical process in your body is dependent on quality/charged H2O as well as an osmotic balance in our fluids to perform at our highest potential. That’s why hydrating is KEY when working to reach optimal health. Being properly hydrated isn’t achieved by simply filling up your water bottle from the faucet...The type of water you drink is significant. And that’s why in this episode of HYDRATE, I dive into what exactly is wrong with our water. Many of you may already know to stay away from tap water, but many of you may not actually know WHY. So let's get hydrated!
