I believe to sustainably carry out a healthy diet it needs to be more than a diet but habits rooted in mindfulness and enjoyment. Let's talk about plant-based nutrition from a holistic perspective and learn how transformational it can be in concomitance with grounding mindfulness practices such as yoga. 

For this conversation, I invited the radiant Whitney Miner, a certified holistic nutritionist, yoga instructor, and the founder of Eat Plants & Prosper - a wellness blog with tons of tips on living a plant-based lifestyle for regular people like you and me. She’s a fervent advocate for designing a holistic health lifestyle based on bringing consciousness to our daily meals and movement in our bodies to live the most fulfilling lives we can. Let’s get back in charge of our long-term health.

If you want a healthy brain you might want to look at what’s on your plate. The brain takes up 20% of our energy resources. And the only way for our body to fill up our energy resources is with food but not any kind of food.
I invited Doctor Jaz Robbins, a therapist and board-certified holistic nutritionist to educate us on the strong link between our dietary patterns and our mental health. This conversation fully highlights the incomparable impact nutrition has on our brains, particularly our mental health. A testament that nutrition is an integral part of conscious living.

As a "recovering perfectionist", I’ve already talked about perfectionism several times on this podcast but it’s always a good reminder to revisit the subject because sometimes we have to heal the same thing multiple times to fully remove all of the remnants of it. I am super honored to have Kristina Mänd-Lakhiani discuss this very subject with me today. Kristina is the co-founder of the mega self-development learning platform Mindvalley, you know the one with all of the personal development superstars. In her upcoming book “Becoming Flawesome”, she reflects on her own story, her battle against perfectionism, and her journey toward her most authentic self.

Our beliefs shape our reality. Throughout life, starting with childhood, we pick up beliefs from others along the way. We definitely cannot control everything, we actually have little control in life but what we control is our thoughts. The ones we choose to feed and interact with. We can rewire our thinking patterns to empower ourselves and live the life we desire, instead of suffering through life. 
So how do we revamp our current belief system, clear out our negative beliefs, and shift to the universal truth in order to thrive in life? 
To answer this question, I invited Hale Dwoskin, New York Times best-selling author, one of the featured teachers of the book and movie phenomenon, “The Secret,” and in the sequel documentary film "The Greatest Secret” by the same director among other features. " He is the co-founder of Sedona Training Associates, an organization that teaches courses based on emotional releasing techniques. Hale has dedicated his life to helping people eliminate their suffering and discover the truth of who they truly are. He’s also the co-author of many groundbreaking personal development books.

“Compassion and tolerance are not a sign of weakness, but a sign of strength.” – Dalai Lama
Everyone has their own way to deal with their pain. Nonetheless, oftentimes, we tend to opt for hitting where it hurts when we are hurt by another person or just hurt for whatever reason. As a way to cope with our pain, we share or deflect our pain on someone else, we point fingers and blame others because it’s too much to bear alone. When we can, in fact, choose compassion and healing instead of hatred and reacting from our wounded self.
This led me to wonder how self-acceptance and embodying our truest self, help in developing compassion inside of us to bring more happiness into our personal lives and into the collective well-being as well.

To help me answer this question, I invited Chris Cirak, the author of the book “Be You: The Journey of Self-Realization”, meditation teacher, and mindfulness retreat leader. Chris teaches living a life of joy and self-realization through empathy, presence, mindfulness, and human values. 

Listen up to this gem,
Namaste listeners!

There is no better time than the month of love to talk about the heart. The one that is responsible for making us feel and connect with self and others. The one that sometimes makes us think that it has a mind of its own, communicating messages to both our brain and our gut.  

To uncover the secrets or maybe the superpower of the heart, I’ll be discussing it with Dr. Madalina Petrescu, a leading cardiologist, also author, co-founder of HeartQ method, and practitioner of various conscious healing modalities with the heart at their center. 
She guides people to reconnect with their authentic selves and with the mission of activating our heart intelligence to live a heart-centered, aligned, and fulfilling life.

The first thing that comes to mind when we think about health is physical health, right? At the beginning of the year, many of us have new resolutions usually around health that essentially revolve around our bodies. But we often forget that the state of our body is also a consequence of the state of our mental and spiritual health. 
I understand being healthy as something transcendental to the body only. We can approach health from a 360 perspective. That's exactly what we expand on in this episode with Kerry Fisher, a lawyer turned author, coach, and teacher for athletes, corporations, and private clients in a variety of disciplines including mindset, meditation, breath work, physiology, and personal development. In this conversation, she also shares some gems from her past books as well as her upcoming one putting holistic health at their center.  

So let’s fully reboot for this new year and make sure our health is top-notch.
