    Stop Fighting Your Body: A Pain-Free Approach to Moving Better at Any Age

    In this episode, I interviewed David Zemach-Bersin, a 50-year veteran practitioner of the Feldenkrais Method. David explains how this unique approach to movement and pain management works with the brain's neuroplasticity to create lasting change without pain or strain. Key Points: - The Feldenkrais Method focuses on the brain's learning capacity rather than muscle exercise - Unlike traditional exercise, it doesn't rely on effort or "no pain, no gain" philosophy - The method can help reduce pain, improve movement, and decrease stress at any age - Practitioners call their sessions "lessons" rather than exercises to emphasize the learning aspect - The approach can be particularly effective for anxiety and trauma-related physical symptoms About David Zemach Burson: - Among the first practitioners trained in the Feldenkrais Method in the US - Has been teaching for over 50 years - Founder of Feldenkrais Access (feldenkraisaccess.com) - Offers both in-person and online classes Resources Mentioned: David has provided my listeners with a special offer. You can find it here but the details are right below. The link provides access to one free Feldenkrais lesson focused on breathing.

    The Great Menopause Myth with Wise and Well

    I've been banging on about the importance of bio-identical hormone replacement for years--literally 15 years--which is why I was so happy to host Kristen Johnson and Maria Clap of Wise and Well. I followed them for at least a year and dug deep into their social posts for the science behind what they were sharing. It's all there and easy to understand. We share a point of view that peri-menopause and menopause are not the end of the world but there are times of serious changes going on and we have to learn to adjust--and get the help we need if needed. Knowledge is the first step and this episode will enlighten you in many ways. Key Topics Discussed:1. Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT)Understanding Bioidentical Hormones: These are molecularly identical to the hormones produced by our bodies and can be compounded or FDA-approved.Misconceptions & Fear: Many women fear bioidenticals due to misinformation, such as unfounded cancer risks.Individualized Treatment: Importance of personalized dosing based on individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. 2. Women's Health & Midlife ChallengesTarget Audience includes women aged 40 to 70, but also younger women experiencing early menopause.Men are encouraged to learn about these issues for better support in relationships. 3. Body Image and AgingChallenging societal pressures and unrealistic standards set by media.Emphasizing self-love and acceptance over striving for unattainable youthfulness. 4. Nutrition InsightsThe importance of protein intake at every meal, particularly from natural sources like meat, which is nutrient-dense and satiating.Discussion around misconceptions regarding meat consumption and its nutritional value compared to plant-based diets. Insightful Quotes:"We've now replaced what used to be the important metrics of a good life with surface stuff.""We don't need to look thirty at sixty; it's about feeling good in your skin.""I think sometimes we need to give ourselves a little bit more grace and recognize that these bodies are a story, of everything that we've lived and done."Action Items for Listeners:Consider testing hormone levels before starting HRT for more tailored treatment plans.Reflect on personal body image perceptions influenced by social media aesthetics versus real-life health metrics.Incorporate whole foods into your diet focusing on unprocessed meats when possible. We couldn't cover everything I wanted to know from Kristen and Maria So I'm inviting them back now that their book has launched. (This episode was recorded well before it is being released. You'll hear me say the release is early September.) Follow Kristen Johnson (@wiseandwell) & Maria Clap (@mariaclap) on Instagram for daily tips! ``` Get their book, The Great Menopause Myth, The Truth on Mastering Midlife Hormonal Mayhem, Beating Uncomfortable Symptoms, and Aging to Thrive.

    End the Toxic Tango, how to reclaim your power in relationships

    This episode is for you if you are suffering (in silence or if you feel everyday is a battle for your self worth), in a relationship gone bad or has been bad for years. Shannon Petrovich, LSCW, LISAC, BCD is an expert in the complex world of toxic relationships. This is an especially important interview in light of the many studies highlighting how common it is for women to be the victims of verbal abuse, diminishment, and feelings of shame due to a toxic relationship. This can be from a partner, family member, or even an adult child. According to the American Psychological Association, "One nationally representative study showed that 27% of Americans are actively estranged from at least one family member." Truth is, people who find themselves in this place have often created the very situation they hate. You remember the saying, "we teach people how to treat us?" Yeah, that applies here. But it's not hopeless. You can regain your sense of self worth and teach your people that who you are is not a doormat or victim. Some will respond positively and some will have to be walked away from. Shannon's goal is to help individuals identify toxicity in their relationships and what steps one can take to address these unhealthy dynamics. Shannon helped me understand that narcissism isn't one type of individual or behavior but is rather a spectrum of people and behaviors. Bottom line is this is a tricky situation to navigate due to the chameleon-like nature of a narcissists actions. Key Points Discussed: Personal Experience with Illness: The host shares her recent recovery from illness.Rising Awareness of Toxic Relationships: A reflection on why toxic relationships are getting more attention in light of global situations.Defining Self Within Relationships: Understanding that showing up as your whole self is crucial for healthy interactions. The Spectrum of Narcissism: Insight into how narcissistic behavior varies and its impact on relationships.Internal vs. External Responsibility: Emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between one's own emotions and those projected by others.Navigating Parental Roles & Adult Children Dynamics: Strategies for dealing with expectations set by historical family roles.Recognizing Subtle Forms of Toxicity: Acknowledging that not all toxic behaviors are overtly abusive but may still be harmful.Tools For Recovery & Empowerment:Developing a healthy relationship within oneself before addressing external onesImplementing boundaries Shannon offers a free training video on her website to provide initial guidance on handling toxic relationships. She also had a support group & masterclass. These are opportunities for deeper learning and community support when dealing with these challenges. This episode provides valuable advice for anyone questioning the healthiness of their interpersonal connections while offering practical steps toward resolution and empowerment. Remember to visit HealFromToxicRelationships.com for further assistance in healing from detrimental relational patterns. Note: Always ensure you're safe when considering leaving a potentially dangerous situation; seek professional help if necessary.

    Veganism isn't always healthy, especially as we age

    My guest, Daina Rasutis, is a  a Nutrition Therapist Master. Looking for a way to heal her gut, her chronic acne, and increasing fatigue, she turned to a plant based diet. To start, things seemed to be going well. Things improved but she never returned to health. In fact, over time, she felt worse and her symptoms returned. We discussed the importance of protein--specifically animal protein--as we age. It benefits the gut, our muscles, immunity, and more. For those who have concerns about how animals are processed, an egg from a humane farm fed organic food to supplement their grazing, is the answer. Key Points Discussed: Daina's Background: From civil environmental engineering to sustainable food systems and eventually finding her passion in nutrition therapy.Vegan Journey: How going vegan initially improved Dena's chronic conditions like acne but later led to energy depletion and gut issues.Protein Importance: The critical role animal proteins play in maintaining gut health versus relying heavily on supplements or processed foods.Gut Health Focus: Why as we age, especially for women over 50, it becomes essential to prioritize gut health through proper nutrition including adequate protein intake.Muscle Maintenance: The significance of preventing muscle loss by ensuring enough dietary protein paired with resistance training as one ages.Digestive Changes with Ageing: Understanding that our body produces fewer enzymes and stomach acid as we get older which affects digestion. Insights Shared: Transitioning from Veganism: Dena discusses how she gradually introduced eggs then fish back into her diet after realizing plant-based eating was not supporting her well-being effectively. Bone Broth Benefits: Although not complete in amino acids profile compared to other animal products, bone broth is beneficial for skin, bones, and particularly soothing for the gut lining during healing processes. Common Misconceptions: Addressing common misunderstandings about heartburn relief methods such as antacids which can lead to more harm than good by reducing crucial stomach acid production needed for immune defense against pathogens. Food Sensitivity Testing & Stool Analysis: Highlighted importance of identifying individual food sensitivities through testing rather than elimination diets alone; also understanding one’s microbiome state via stool tests. Headaches & Gut Connection: Discusses how chronic headaches can often be linked back to gut issues—whether it’s due to food sensitivities or poor digestion leading systemic reactions within the body. Conclusion: This episode challenges listeners who are considering or currently practicing veganism while emphasizing the necessity of listening closely to their bodies’ needs—especially regarding protein consumption—and adjusting their diets accordingly as they age. If you’re looking beyond conventional wisdom towards a fully expressed life at any age without compromising your wellness goals, tune in now! Her website is Table to Crave. You can find Daina on IG.

    Dr. Michael Roizen, Can We Really Turn Back Time?

    Today, I have the privilege of hosting Dr. Michael Roizen, a renowned expert in reversing and rebooting aging.  His CV is extensive, you can read about him here. In 2007, Dr. Roizen was named Chief Wellness Officer at Cleveland Clinic, the first such position in a major healthcare institution in the United States. The concept might sound like something out of science fiction, but Dr. Roizen discussed real scientific endeavors aimed at reversing biological aging. He opened up about cutting-edge technologies such as 3D organ printing – which may one day allow us to replace aged organs with new ones – and research on telomeres and stem cells that are at the forefront of longevity studies. Key Takeaways: Reversing Biological Age: Dr. Roizen discusses how we can not only prevent but reverse our biological age through various methods.Future Innovations: A glimpse into future advancements such as 3D organ printing and breakthroughs in research that could allow us to reset our age back to our forties.Real Age Concept: An explanation of Real Age – an assessment tool that determines your body's health relative to your calendar age based on lifestyle choices. Take the Real Age test at ShareCare.com. Caveat. I took the test, which is long but multiple choice, and I knew based on some of the questions I was in trouble. The algorithm recommended that I don't eat enough whole grains--I eat almost none--or legumes, not good for my genetic profile, or fruit. I don't love fruit but do eat about two apples a week and berries or melon in season. It's pretty old school/western medicine oriented. I also got points off for not having a flu shot every year and never having had a pneumonia vax. Preventing Structural Change: Importance of avoiding severe structural damage now so you can benefit from potential future therapies.Health Parameters & Longevity Preparation: Insights into six parameters of health including diet, exercise, stress management (highlighted as most important), connection with others, and sleep quality.Metformin and Aging Debate: Discussion about Metformin's role in anti-aging; while it has been hyped up within certain circles, Dr. Roizen advises caution unless pre-diabetes or diabetes is present.Telomere Testing Accuracy Concerns: Skepticism around telomere length tests due to variability; emphasis on stem cell telomeres being more crucial than other cells' for longevity.Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD): Explanation of Valter Luongo’s FMD which resets genes allowing for increased stem cell growth upon resuming a normal diet after fasting periods. Supplements That Work: A brief mention at the end regarding supplements that may provide more benefits than risks according to Longevity.com’s scientific advisory board evaluations - baby aspirin twice daily, CoQ10, probiotics like Bifidobacterium animalis ssp lactis HN019™️ , vitamin D above 50 ng/ml levels and half a multivitamin twice daily were highlighted among others. Dr. Roizen's latest book, he has written or co-authored numerous books, is a...

    How to prevent Dementia with Mitchell Clionsky

    Going out on a limb here when I say, no one wants dementia. Amiright? When I heard about the new book, Dementia Prevention, Using Your Head to Save Your Brain, I knew I wanted to interview the author(s). Luckily, one of them reached out to me, to you the audience, thinking it might be something we'd be interested in. Ya think? This episode is chock full of what contributes to dementia, who might be heading that way, and what we can do to prevent it or slow the progression. Mitchell told me "80 percent of people over the age of 50 are somewhat or very worried about dementia. That can be paralyzing, if all you do is worry. That's why when we talk about in the book, don't be a dementia worrier, become a prevention warrior. There's a very active approach that is based on real science." You know I love the science and bring it he did. Here are the key points we discussed Demystifying Dementia: Understanding that genetics and lifestyle both play roles in brain health.Prevention over Worry: Shifting from anxiety about dementia to becoming an active 'prevention warrior.'Interdisciplinary Approach: The importance of integrating knowledge from various medical fields such as cardiology, endocrinology, sleep medicine, etc., for effective dementia prevention.Early Detection & Action: Advocating regular cognitive assessments during annual check-ups and taking action based on results.The Power of Lifestyle Changes: Emphasizing simple yet significant habits like walking 10 minutes thrice a day or ensuring good quality sleep.Understanding Different Types of Dementia: Clarifying misconceptions between Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, frontotemporal dementia among others.Role of Medication & Substance Use: Cautioning against long-term use of anti-anxiety medication or excessive alcohol consumption which may impair cognitive function. Dr. Clionsky also highlights the significance of maintaining social connections and mental stimulation in preserving cognitive health. The Clionsky's have created a checklist for anyone who wants to see where they are when it comes to dementia potential. It's your chance to construct your individual Dementia Prevention Model. Your results will grade you as "on target," near target," or "off target." Read more here and take the quiz. Find them on Facebook. Meet them and their 2 beautiful dogs at https://braindoc.com/ If you find yourself near or off target and what a simple roadmap to get you to on target, check out my Power of 5 free email course.
