In this episode, I take a deep dive into the world of infoceuticals with Anton Fedorenko, creator and founder of Infopathy. In this fascinating discussion, you will learn all about:

• How we have the ability to imprint electromagnetic signals (ICs) from substances into a simple glass of water
• How it is scientifically possible to reap benefits of therapeutic substances such as medicines, herbs, vitamins, supplements, etc. without needing the actual substance in hand, and without potential side effects of these substances
• How our body intelligently recognizes these signals/frequencies and uses them for its benefit
• How PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy can be used with an Infopathy device
• How to use the Audible/listening frequencies for healing purposes
• How imprinting water is based off of technology that isn't new, but it is more widely accessible and available due to key advancements 
• How to use the different Infopathy devices offered as well as the Infopathy database
• Personal and real examples of how Infopathy has worked for others

You will also hear me throw nearly all of the FAQs I could think at Anton during the second half of this episode. In truth, this has been something I've personally used for nearly a year now and really wanted to feature it on the show! I have seen it work in my own life and with my own body, and felt the call to highlight and share it.

Welcome to what feels like the first episode of the INTENTIONALLY UNPREPARED Series! My current thought is to sprinkle these "couch conversations" in from time to time...as they definitely reflect a different feel than all of the other episodes here on Intentionally Well.

The following is a candid chat (versus an interview) with Homeopathic Doctor, Sarah Trask...about our faith in God and healing. Life's trials and tribulations can often be very hard to bear, and we find ourselves depleted and defeated, wondering if we will ever see change. In our human quest for control and power, these trials hit our lives FOR us, despite our pain, sorrow, grief, or discomfort. The "growing pains" we face are usually great and purposeful gifts, and pave the way for both our surrendering and our salvation.

In this unconventional episode, Sarah and I bring what would be a typical phone conversation of ours to the podcast mic. It is an extremely raw, imperfect, organic episode with no prep and all heart.

Here I have the truest honor of sitting down with Dr. David Evans (DVM), a classically trained veterinarian who then converted over to homeopathic medicine after a unique experience with his own personal health.

This discussion is dynamic, info-packed, and full of compassion, as Dr. David Evans educates on how the holistic system of homeopathy works by eliminating the underlying imbalance in an pet/animal's body, therefore eliminating unwanted or uncomfortable symptoms and rising their overall vitality.

We chat about homeopathy vs. conventional vet medicine, pet susceptibilities and genetics, vaccinations, pet grief, pet loss, acute/chronic care, diets, skin concerns, flea/tick care, and so much more.

Dr. David Evans wholeheartedly believes that prevention is the key for our beloved animals, and that all pet parents/owners should be aware of their options so they can make informed decisions when caring for their pet's health.

In this episode, I have the pleasure of sitting down with licensed acupuncturist and functional medicine specialist Nick Fransen, who's mission is to help people overcome the subconscious blocks that are keeping them STUCK. Nick has dedicated his time and efforts towards educating patients/people about the unhelpful patterns of our subconscious mind, and how breaking them can lead to healing the body and creating more peace and success in one's life.

We largely discuss how the body really does "keep score," and how health conditions, sleep troubles, addictions, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, and more can really be the result of subconscious programming associated with past life circumstances and/or trauma. Nick teaches us the different ways our minds become programmed,  and how it's very common to see people with chronic health conditions unintentionally held back from healing due to these hardwired beliefs, attitudes, and blocks. He shares how this also applies to other versions of feeling "stuck" in life, such as relationship/marital issues, career and financial stress, and more.

This conversation is the real deal. We share a lot of candid conversation, personal stories, and more during this chat; we even talk forgiveness, harboring resentments, and the emotional toll it takes on us when we avoid this very important piece of “wellness.”

Nick then gives us a great glimpse at how a specific type of homeopathy (discovered in Europe) can help guide us towards breaking these subconscious patterns, loops, and habits. When we start to address this often-missed aspect of health and healing, we open the door for long-time burdens to be alleviated, and create space for us to thrive in health and in our lives overall.

In this interview, I have a thought-provoking conversation with Rick Olderman, orthopedic physical therapist specializing in chronic pain and nagging injuries that "seem to be incapable" of healing.

A huge motivating factor behind Rick’s search for answers was his own chronic back pain, and after years in clinic but unable to fully help patients, he realized that the fundamental and crucial element connecting movement, structure, and pain was missing from the general conventional physical therapy practice. With additional training and knowledge in Pilates, personal training, and yoga--yet still coming up short--Rick went on to dedicate the last two decades towards pioneering this systems-based research.

His affordable at-home programs provide a much deeper understanding of how unhelpful lifestyle habits and movement patterns can break down muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bone, which in turn creates pain. He's written several books, including his newest, "Solving the Pain Puzzle," and Rick holds a very stern belief that given the right tools, we absolutely have the ability to heal chronic pain.

Rick and I talk about everything from the faulty belief systems we have about our bodies, we discuss why this systems-based approach is not addressed in PT school, he educates us on the patterns of dysfunction, goes through some interactive exercises with us, and so much more. This episode is truly supercharged with detailed information, and provides much hope to those who've felt stuck because of their pain.

In this episode, I sit down with Carmen Woodland, Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, who runs a global virtual practice specializing in airway & sleep-disordered breathing, tongue ties, and wellness/digestion/lifestyle support. Carmen works with people and children of all ages to address a wide range of issues including the areas of breathing (mouth-breathing, snoring, sleep apnea, etc.), habit correction, sleep promotion strategies, eustachian tube dysfunction, TMD support, as well as the most complex cases of orofacial myofunctional disorders. 

This interview is packed to the brim regarding disordering breathing and why mouth breathing is a massively overlooked yet underrated problem, and how the dots are still not connected by many as they continue to suffer from a wide range of health conditions/diseases. Carmen gives us a major breakdown on why nasal breathing is so critical for optimal health, and we get into detail about conditions like sleep apnea.

We also take a deep dive into tongue ties, as she enlightens us on all things from common signs, implications, surgical releases, early facial development, frequently asked questions, and more. She gives us examples of what she's seen in her practice, and we talk about how and why conventional dentistry/medicine in general has collectively bypassed this area of concern for many. Carmen's expert approach and guidance has helped countless people and children find their way towards healing and optimal health, and she is full of encouragement as she enlightens us on real, tangible solutions.

Welcome to your ultimate guide to ALL THINGS mushrooms and mushroom supplementation! I sit down with Jeff Chilton during this interview, ethno-mycologist and passionate founder and president of Nammex, which happens to be the very first company to offer a complete line of Certified Organic Mushroom extracts to the United States Supplement Industry.

This is a super fun and educational episode about mushrooms, as we first talk about their growing cycle, and then how they can be used as nutritional powerhouses in our diets and at home. We talk about the popular and delicious mushrooms to use in our kitchen, including ways to optimally use them, wash them, and simply cook them.

Jeff then gracefully and truthfully opens the door to the "functional mushroom" world, where we get into some really interesting realities about the supplement industry. He candidly shares what he refers to as the "adulteration of these supplements," and I was a bit shocked to hear just how prevalent these sideways practices are! He gives us all the warnings and details on what to look for when looking for a quality mushroom/adaptogen supplement, goes over the testing methods, and more. We also chat about a couple of fun mushrooms like Reishi and Lion's Mane, where he gives us a nice breakdown of their primary uses and benefits.

Jeff is a true industry leader, educator and MASTER when it comes to mushrooms, and his affection for them is highly palpable. He's an absolute wealth of information and he stands by the "food as medicine" approach to wellness. Check out the resources below for what seems like an endless amount of education!
