Get Healthy

This is the last episode of Get Healthy...maybe, most likely, but I want to thank everyone that listened to me interview people. I have another podcast called Johnny Explains it's a much less serious podcast made for entertainment.

Last week I started to interview people again for this podcast. Health log, mentally still working on it, physically still working on it, and emotionally still working on it. My first guest from my long sabbatical is my friend Edgar aka "Smiley". He's an ex amateur boxer who talks about his journey into almost going pro. There are a lot of people that he met in his boxing career right before it was cut short due to a work related injury. Smiley brings up the power of acupuncture in his life. Thank you all for continuing to listen to me and my guest. I love you and very much appreciate you. Enjoy, please like, share, subscribe, and leave a comment.

E-Zone interviewed me for his podcast "We Don't Smoke The Same" watch it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_kj56ICtJ8&t=3451s on his Youtube Page. He talked to me about being a vegan, having cholos for parents, and I was able to talk about how I was able to meet so many comics like Felipe Esparza, Martin Rizo, George Perez, Joey "CoCo" Diaz. This was a great podcast that I had a lot of fun doing. Health report I need to go back to doing stuff for my spiritual and mental health. Especially during this self quarantine time period. If anybody wants to talk about any hardship during this time feel free to reach out. Thank you all for continuing to listen to me and my guest. I love you and very much appreciate you.

Steve Simeone sits down to talk to me about his life growing up, religion, and just being a nice guy on this planet that is filled with so many people that have somewhat forgotten what it means to be nice. We talk about physical health and him sparring in jiu-jitsu and his spiritual health as a follower of Catholicism. This has been a busy week full of a lot of unexpected surprises, pleasant, but unexpected. Life  is like that sometimes. A routine is perfect for living a healthy productive life, but a new routine must be created in life in order to grow when the results of the old routine pay off. I'm still practicing this routine, but I will release a new episode on Tuesday. Goals. Thank you all for continuing to listen to me and my guest. I love you and very much appreciate you.

Joel Jimenez (@mostlysorry) comes to talk about his life growing up in Frog Town, a section of Los Angeles that has been classified as gentrified. He lived there when it wasn't gentrified though so we shared stories of being Mexican American in a crazy city. Joel also grew up with panic attacks. He was lucky to be diagnosed when he was younger. He is a comedian and a drummer in the band on the Kill Tony Podcast and is on tour. I talk about how I have been lacking in my workouts for the past 2 weeks, I want to meditate longer, like really long, like 30 or 45 minutes long, and I also give signs of panic attacks.

Aurelio Miguel Bocanegra, host of The Good The Bad and The Funny podcast as well as a very talented comedian and PERSONAL TRAINER! He gave me a health assessment years back saying I was 33% body fat. Now we are at different places in our lives and we talk about how it is to mature. The main reason for his growth he attributes to him not drinking any longer. I advocate for people to stop drinking because drinking is really bad for your health. I am currently resting, light workouts really, and figuring out what the next step is going to be in order to continue my health journey. Enjoy, please like, share, subscribe, and leave a comment.

I finally feel like I am making a strides in keeping a work out schedule going after a few weeks of being off course. Thankfully my meditation habits and therapy sessions are back to normal as well. This feels like a lot of commitment at times, but I realize it's just a feeling. I am much happier working harder to keep these commitments then I am not having them in my life. One of my favorite quotes I read in "Meditations" by Marcus Aurelios*, Book V, 1 is "In the morning when thou risest unwillingly, let this thought be present - I am rising to the work of a human being. Why then am I dissatisfied if I am going to do the things for which I exist and for which I was brought into the world? Or have I been made for this, to lie in the bedclothes and keep myself warm?".

This week I interview Justin Hoff, very funny guy that uses psilocybin in small doses to regulate his life. We talk about the change that he experience in the past few months as well as how life was like as he was entering adulthood after losing his father. This was a very intense conversation about healing with psilocybin. Thank you to everyone that has subscribed and keeps sharing with people looking to Get Healthy.
