Maximize your self-care plan with practical tools, reflective practices, and energetic insights that help you live, work, and lead with greater vitality. Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell invites you into meaningful conversations that bridge movement, energy medicine, intentional living, and compassionate care. Dr. Michelle Greenwell—educator, movement specialist, and leader in BioEnergetic Wellness—guides listeners through episodes designed to align intention with action. Each episode offers inspiration and grounded practices you can integrate into daily life, whether at home, in the workplace, or within caregiving and leadership roles. This season expands the depth of the podcast through special multi-episode trilogies, allowing listeners to explore healing topics more fully. These trilogy series create space to dive deeper into the lived experiences, science, and transformational tools shared by Dr. Greenwell’s guests—supporting real, sustainable change rather than quick fixes. A monthly featured series with Laurin Wittig brings focused attention to dementia, caregiving, connection, and quality of life. These conversations explore how presence, creativity, movement, nature, and relational awareness can support both those living with dementia and those who walk alongside them. This series is especially meaningful for families, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and communities seeking compassionate, human-centered approaches. Each month also includes episodes highlighting Dr. Greenwell’s own teachings—drawing from Tai Chi, subtle energy, movement-based self-care, and intention-setting—to support resilience, nervous system regulation, and ease during life’s transitions. These insights are especially supportive for entrepreneurs, caregivers, and professionals experiencing fatigue, overwhelm, or burnout. A signature element of the podcast is the tea ritual woven into each episode. Sponsored by the Greenwell Center for Holistic Health and the Cape Breton Tea Company, listeners are invited to slow down, sip intentionally, and explore how herbs, affirmations, and mindful pauses can enhance well-being. Featured blends include the Tea with Intention series and Harmony Blends, part of the Building Resiliency program designed to help unwind stress and trauma.

In this inspiring episode of Facing Dementia, Michelle Greenwell welcomes back intuitive transformation mentor and award-winning author Laurin Wittig to revisit a simple idea that emerged from their previous conversation—the Joy Calendar.

    Understanding PTSD: Returning to the Heart

    Trauma changes us—but it does not define us. In this heartfelt conversation, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes internationally recognized author and self-help expert Faust Ruggiero, M.S. to explore the many faces of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and the path toward healing. Drawing from over forty years of professional experience and his  book, "The Fix Your PTSD Handbook", Faust explains how trauma affects the body, mind, and emotions, why PTSD exists on a spectrum rather than as a single diagnosis, and what practical steps can help people begin reconnecting with themselves and others. Together, they explore: 🌿 Understanding the five types of PTSD 🌿 How unresolved trauma affects the nervous system and emotional wellbeing 🌿 Why healing involves the whole person—not just the mind 🌿 Rebuilding trust after trauma 🌿 The importance of connection, hope, and compassionate support Dr. Greenwell also introduces a BioEnergetic Wellness perspective through the Five Element Wheel, offering a holistic way to understand how trauma can affect fear, grief, joy, grounding, and our sense of direction in life. Tea Ritual Before the conversation begins, we pause with "SoulTEA Harbour" from the Cape Breton Tea Company. Featuring soothing Licorice Root and mineral-rich Stinging Nettle, this nourishing herbal blend reminds us to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with our hearts. Today's affirmation: "Balance and Flow is possible when we open to be present for our true heart's desires. Come home to your heart."

    Emotions and Healing: The Heart of the Fire Element

    How do joy, love, passion, and emotional connection influence your health? In Episode 2 of Emotions & Healing, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, and Denise Cambiotti, HCD, CIH BioEW, as they explore the Fire Element through the wisdom of the Five Element Theory, Touch for Health, and the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula. The Heart and Small Intestine meridians do far more than support circulation and digestion—they influence our ability to experience joy, develop meaningful relationships, make clear decisions, and remain emotionally resilient.

Together we explore: ❤️ The Fire Element and its role in emotional wellbeing ❤️ The Heart and Small Intestine meridians ❤️ Joy, love, passion, and emotional discernment ❤️ How emotional balance influences memory, focus, and relationships ❤️ Why burnout is often a sign of energetic imbalance ❤️ Simple Touch for Health tools that support heart-centered wellbeing ❤️ Practical strategies for restoring vitality and emotional resilience Tea with Intentions Today's featured blend from the Cape Breton Tea Company is **Apple Passion**, a heart-centered tea selected to support the Fire Element.

    Caregiving with Resiliency

    Discover how caregiving can become a journey of resilience, connection, and hope. In this heartfelt episode of 'Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell', I welcome Sandy Andress, author of 'Caregiver's Guide', to share her deeply personal journey of caring for two of her siblings and how that experience inspired a faith-based book and workshop designed to support caregivers. Together, we explore how caregiving can be more than simply managing responsibilities. It can become an opportunity to strengthen relationships, nurture your own wellbeing, and discover practical ways to continue thriving while supporting someone you love. As part of every podcast, we also create an experience of rejuvenation using the 'BioEnergetic Wellness Formula.' During this episode, you'll be guided through two simple wellness tools you can use immediately: Emotional Stress Release (ESR) – to calm the mind, ease emotional stress, and create space for new solutions. Cook's Hook-Ups – to encourage relaxation, improve communication, support restful sleep, ease tension, and foster a deeper connection with yourself and those you care for. Before our conversation, we also share a mindful tea ritual featuring '1897 GenerosiTEA' from the Cape Breton Tea Company. Together. we explore the spiritual essence of blueberry and currant and reflect on how compassion differs from sympathy and empathy. True generosity comes from a place of renewal, allowing us to give without becoming depleted. In this episode you'll discover: • How Sandy's caregiving journey inspired her faith-based book and workshop. • Why healthy relationships are at the heart of effective caregiving. • Practical communication strategies for caregivers and healthcare teams. • Ways to care for yourself while caring for someone you love. • How small moments of awareness can transform the caregiving experience. • Two simple BioEnergetic Wellness tools you can begin using today. Whether you are currently a caregiver, anticipate becoming one, support someone in that role, or simply want to build stronger, more compassionate relationships, this conversation offers practical guidance, encouragement, and hope.

    What happens when you've done all the research? You've read the books. Changed your lifestyle. Learned the science. Followed the recommendations. Done everything you know to do... And yet, fear still lingers. In this heartfelt episode of Facing Dementia, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes intuitive transformation mentor and award-winning author Laurin Wittig for one of the most profound conversations in the series—a discussion about the moment when knowledge gives way to wisdom. Laurin shares the deeply personal realization that she has reached a turning point in her journey. Rather than continuing to search for more information about preventing dementia, she is learning to trust what she already knows, listen to her body's wisdom, and embrace life with greater presence instead of fear. Together, Michelle and Laurin explore how this shift is not about giving up—it is about moving from fear to trust, from willpower to flow, and from constantly trying to prevent illness to intentionally cultivating vitality. In this episode you'll discover: ✨ Why endless research can become another source of stress ✨ How fear can quietly shape our wellness journey ✨ The difference between information and embodied wisdom ✨ Why intuition becomes an important partner in healing ✨ How the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula helps build resilience before crisis occurs ✨ The importance of awareness, biofeedback, and understanding your body's unique stress patterns ✨ How living fully today supports long-term wellbeing 🍵 Featured Tea Ritual: Nature's Diamonds Today's tea reminds us of our deep connection to nature and our own innate vitality. Affirmation: "With every sip, I absorb the radiant vitality of nature's diamonds." Featured botanical essences include: 🌿 Moringa – Nourishment, resilience, and restoring vitality from within. 🍋 Lime – Clarity, emotional renewal, release, and fresh perspective. 🫐 Currants – Joy, abundance, restoration, and remembering the sweetness of life. Together they remind us that wellness is not simply the absence of disease—it is living fully connected to ourselves, to nature, and to the present moment. 🌿 The episode concludes with a gentle guided meditation to help you release fear, reconnect with the present, and embrace your own path forward with greater trust and peace.

This series is especially meaningful for families, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and communities seeking compassionate, human-centered approaches.
