Key Moments
“The mind generates ideas. For example, most of us think we are subject to those ideas that we don't have any choice about because the mind is generating them. But that is not the case. The reality is the mind is one of our tools. We are the boss of the mind. We get to tell the mind what to think on its own.”

“Conscious breathing means taking conscious control of the breathing. In the same way that we talked about taking conscious control of the mind as a tool, we are now going to the breathing apparatus.”

“We are born, we live a life and we die. The best thing that we can do is celebrate the very fact that we got to be here, life in and of itself is worthy of celebration.”

Key Moments
“Keeping our blood vessels in a healthy state is the beating heart of what I actually study… And the good news is that there are foods that can actually help us achieve that.”

“One of the biggest myths about inflammation is that it is categorically bad. And that's just not true. And I can tell you this, as a physician, as a doctor, and also as a scientist. Thank goodness we've got inflammation in our body. Inflammation is our first responder system of the body.”

“There are foods that can actually lower inflammation, boost immunity, and cut off the blood supply that feeds cancers. There is a type of definition around “prescription foods” for people with diabetes, etc. for medically tailored meals. That makes sense. What I'm talking about, this is a food as medicine approach. It is an every person approach. You could be at any age. You could be healthy. You could be sick. This is something that's going to actually be in your best interest, to be able to optimize your health at any point in your lifespan, as definitely as you age.”

“I laugh because I've become the widow magnet.”

“I started off as the Navy doctor to George Herbert Walker Bush, and that was in his last year of presidency and the remaining eight years I was the physician to the president, to President Clinton. It was a very different time in history. I retired as a rear admiral, the first Filipino-American U.S. history to become a Navy rear admiral, and that was in 2001.”

“It's been the journey of grief. But I've been grateful. It's been a journey of rebirth and I have become a better person.”

"Is it possible that what I was taught I'm capable of in this life is not the full story?"

00:27:45

Noticing, just noticing with awareness where you start to judge yourself. And when you start to think about yourself. These are ways you start to practice. You replace that practice of judgment with a practice of gratitude.

00:30:23

"I think that we have to be really intentional about what we learn and what we decide to take in as information. Because if everything is outside the box, then we want to be extra careful about what it is that we decide to spend our time on. And that can be something that's helpful to us, or could be something that's unhelpful, right?"
