    Rethinking Pain, Tension, and Alignment with Dr. Chris Wambeke

    Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive.What if pain isn’t simply something to get rid of?What if it’s trying to get your attention?Lauren sits down with NUCCA chiropractor Dr. Chris Wambeke for a conversation that challenges some familiar ideas about pain, tension, and even what chiropractic care is meant to do.Why might your body create tension on purpose? What if something that looks like misalignment is your body adapting to what’s happening in your life? And what can pain reveal when we stop treating it as the enemy?Chris shares a very different way of looking at the relationship between the brain, spinal cord, and body, including an approach to chiropractic care that uses an incredibly light touch. He also introduces three surprising layers of pain that go well beyond the physical.The conversation eventually ventures into energy, information, grief, consciousness, gratitude, and even what happened when Lauren’s dog Louis experienced this type of care.If you’ve ever wondered what your pain might be trying to tell you, this conversation may have you asking some very different questions.Now available wherever you get your podcasts!Chapters:00:00 Meet Dr. Chris Wambeke00:00 Meet Chris Wambeke02:03 What Chiropractic Really Is06:24 Pain as Feedback11:24 Spinal Cord as Vibration17:12 Everything Is Energy23:18 Holding Space for Change30:23 Choices Beyond Mental31:59 NUCCA Light Touch33:51 Resonance Body Signals35:05 Spinal Cord Frequency36:43 Testing Real Change38:01 Soul Bonds Timing40:37 Grief Meaning Making44:52 Brain Spine Electricity49:21 Self Versus Consciousness52:58 Energy Loops Mindset58:23 Choosing Better Questions01:01:57 Gratitude Worry Strategy01:05:20 Closing ReflectionsEpisode Resources:Chris Wambeke is a chiropractor dedicated to helping people on their human journey by applying chiropractic principles to maximize potential.A mountain kid from Northwest Montana, he focuses on making the biggest impact possible with the resources available in the moment.For deeper insight into the ideas that shape his work, explore The Seeker’s Code by Donny Epstein.Contact him at flipchiropractic@gmail.com.EMYoga Online Courses: emyoga.thinkific.com/collections/emyoga-coursesShop our EMYoga Store: emyogastore.com/Sign up for our FREE weekly Newsletter: www.energymedicineyoga.net/Listen on Spotify: Energy WorksListen on Apple Podcasts: Energy WorksFollow us on Instagram: @EnergyMedicineYogaFollow us on Facebook: @EnergyMedicineYoga#EnergyMedicineYoga #EnergyWorksPodcast #WellnessPodcast #EmotionalHealing #EmotionalHealth #Longevity #ChineseMedicine #Ayurveda #HolisticHealth #EMYoga

    What It Costs to Be Seen

    Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive.Have you ever shared something personal and later wondered, “Should I have said that?”Maybe you replayed the conversation afterward. Worried about how someone interpreted what you said. Or wished you could take it back.Lauren and Blaine have both experienced that uncomfortable feeling of being seen and then second-guessing themselves. In this episode, they talk about what can happen after we put ourselves out there, including Lauren’s decision to delete podcast episodes she had already recorded and Blaine’s vulnerability hangover after sharing a very personal story.Why are we sometimes comfortable being ourselves until we imagine someone judging us?The conversation explores self-consciousness, fear of criticism, authenticity, and why some of us are especially sensitive to judgment, including what the Five Elements can reveal about our inner critic and our ability to let things go.Now available wherever you get your podcasts!Chapters:00:00 Introduction00:51 Audio Only 02:41 Zoom Self Awareness04:02 Brain Load on Zoom05:12 Vanity and Eye Contact07:05 Deleting Cringe Takes09:51 Recorded Forever Fear13:25 Vulnerability Hangover15:42 Power And Consent16:36 Vulnerability Hangover18:03 Freeform Vs Bullet Notes18:23 Snarky Podcast Regret20:10 Authenticity And Judgment21:10 Wood and Metal Elements22:33 Personas And Self Reflection24:03 Spiritual Path And Mistakes26:22 Service And Listener Value28:57 Imperfect Leaders And Growth31:21 ConclusionEpisode Resources:EMYoga Online Courses: emyoga.thinkific.com/collections/emyoga-coursesShop our EMYoga Store: emyogastore.com/Sign up for our FREE weekly Newsletter: www.energymedicineyoga.net/Listen on Spotify: Energy WorksListen on Apple Podcasts: Energy WorksFollow us on Instagram: @EnergyMedicineYogaFollow us on Facebook: @EnergyMedicineYoga#EnergyMedicineYoga #EnergyWorksPodcast #WellnessPodcast #EmotionalHealing #EmotionalHealth #EMYoga

    The Longevity Advice No One Can Sell You

    Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive.What if your emotional health is just as important to longevity as your sleep, nutrition, and exercise?In this solo episode, Lauren explores the connection between our emotions, our bodies, and long-term health through the lenses of Energy Medicine Yoga, Ayurveda, and Chinese medicine. She looks at how unresolved or “undigested” emotional experiences may show up in the body, alongside what Western research is revealing about the relationship between emotional wellbeing, stress, and physical health.Lauren also takes a critical look at the biohacking and longevity movement, especially the overwhelming number of supplements, tests, protocols, and expensive interventions promising to help us live longer. Using longevity advocate Bryan Johnson and his experience with autoimmune gastritis as a starting point, Lauren explores the concept of autoimmunity through the lens of Chinese medicine. She brings the conversation back to foundational health practices that are often overlooked because they aren't particularly monetizable: quality sleep, nourishing food, healthy digestion and elimination, relationships, community, creativity, purpose, and emotional wellbeing.This episode is a grounded invitation to step back from the latest health trend and reconnect with the foundations that truly support wellbeing.

Chrissy explains why she prefers “trauma responsive” over “trauma informed,” responding in real time to nervous system reactions and creating safety whether or not a person’s history is known. She also shares why she approaches this work side-by-side rather than positioning herself as the expert.Drawing from her experience teaching in locked inpatient units, juvenile detention centers, and geriatric care settings, she shares how yoga can become accessible, choice-based, and conversational. She and Lauren discuss building agency, the “yes, and” teaching mindset, practitioner boundaries, self-advocacy, and working with dysregulation.You’ll also learn three simple techniques you can use anywhere to help regulate your nervous system when stress or overwhelm takes over.Now available wherever you get your podcasts!Chapters:00:00 Introduction01:54 Trauma Responsive Defined06:32 Inside Crisis Mental Health08:59 How She Got Started11:31 Why Yoga Wasn't Working15:28 Yes And Side By Side19:47 Reflect Teach Why Method25:02 Advanced Training In Action30:36 Group Healing Focus31:38 Fearless In Facilities35:12 Seeing People Again37:58 Calvin Changes Access41:25 Agency And Validation44:54 Handling Disruption Kindly51:11 Self Care Boundaries56:07 Three Regulation Tools01:01:03 ConclusionEpisode Resources:“I Am Safe” byChrissy Mignona Book (use coupon code SAFE15 to receive15% off): https://move-mindfully.com/product/i-am-safe-trauma-responsive-practices-in-crisis-mental-health-by-chrissy-mignogna-book/ EMYoga Online Courses: emyoga.thinkific.com/collections/emyoga-coursesShop our EMYoga Store: emyogastore.com/Sign up for our FREE weekly Newsletter: www.energymedicineyoga.net/Listen on Spotify: Energy WorksListen on Apple Podcasts: Energy WorksFollow us on Instagram: @EnergyMedicineYogaFollow us on Facebook: @EnergyMedicineYoga#EnergyMedicineYoga #EMYoga #EnergyWorksPodcast #EnergyHealing #NervousSystemRegulation #TraumaHealing  #WellnessPodcast #EmotionalHealing #TraumaInformedCare #CrisisMentalHealth
