    On this episode of Connecting Minds I had the honour of talking with Dr Raymond Perrin. Dr Perrin is a Registered Osteopath, Neuroscientist and Specialist in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome ME/CFS. 

    He proposed that there is a lymphatic drainage system of the brain DECADES before the science caught up with and validated his theory. This system is essential in draining large molecules from the brain through the cerebrospinal fluid. The accumulation of inflammatory chemicals and other toxic substances in the brain’s lymphatic system can lead to not just CFS, but numerous other conditions that Dr Perrin terms neuro-lymphatic drainage disorders. 

    Dr Perrin also developed a treatment, The Perrin Technique™, that he has successfully employed to help sufferers of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis.

    Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LAH2ra_0H6U

    On this episode of the Connecting Minds podcast we have world-renowned breathing expert Patrick McKeown discussing the dangers of breathing too much (which many of us do) and mouth-breathing (which many of also do) in adults and children. We discuss the techniques he teaches with the Buteyko Breathing Method and how to normalise our breathing volume for better sleep, reduced anxiety, improved concentration and focus, and find relief from chronic conditions.

    Patrick McKeown, BA, MA (TCD), Dip BM (Prof KP Buteyko), FBPI, FRSB, is a graduate of Trinity College Dublin. In 2002, Patrick completed his clinical training in the Buteyko Breathing Method at the Buteyko Clinic, Moscow, Russia. This training was accredited by Professor Konstantin Buteyko. Having suffered from asthma, rhinitis and sleep-disordered breathing for over 20 years, Patrick is able to offer both theoretical knowledge and his own experiences to help clients to overcome similar challenges.

    To date, Patrick has written seven books and produced four DVD sets on the Buteyko Method, including two Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk bestsellers for the management of asthma: Close Your Mouth and Asthma-Free Naturally. The Buteyko self-help manual Close Your Mouth has been translated into ten different languages including French, German, Italian, Spanish, Norwegian and Russian. His latest book titled The Oxygen Advantage,  improves sports performance by addressing dysfunctional breathing patterns and simulating high altitude training. The Oxygen Advantage is currently available in English, Dutch, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese and Polish. By September 2018, it will be published in German, Spanish, Chinese and Taiwanese.

    Shownotes: http://christianyordanov.com/16-anders-beatty
    Watch this interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/W7aglaLTvKA

    On this episode of Connecting Minds I had the pleasure of chatting with Anders Beatty.

    Anders works with the leading ibogaine and plant medicine providers around the world to help their clients prepare for and get the best out of their journeys. He shared a ton of great insights into addiction, trauma, plant medicine, and the journey to recovery.

    This is another important episode if you are a parent!

    Anders is a psychotherapist and works with a number of ibogaine and plant medicine clinics worldwide specialising in pre treatment "set" and integration for people undergoing a rite of passage for addiction, PTSD, trauma and 'burn out'.

    Anders runs ibogaine counselling services and was once in "addiction" himself.

    Topics discussed on this episode:

    We covered a lot of ground in this interview, some of the most salient points include: 

    • Anders’ background, his experience with ibogaine and other plant medicines, and his work with the leading ibogaine and plant medicine providers around the world.
    • The importance of “putting intentionality, integrity, respect and reverence into the process,” as Anders puts it.
    • How various childhood traumas, big or small, can lead us to addictions.
    • “Addiction is about self-medicating from being inauthentic.”
    • What the lead-up for the client to the plant medicine journey looks like in terms of preparation.
    • “Addiction is about being in control.”
    • The magic is not in the plant medicine, it is in the work that the client does themselves.
    • The “metaphorical cooking pot” or cauldron where each person put their own “ingredients” used to facilitate their own personal transformation.
    • Guilt and shame are completely unproductive when it comes to addressing one’s addictions.
    • The importance of therapists and counsellors having worked with the the medicines.
