Today's podcast is called, should we be looking back or forward? Sometimes whether people are talking about movement or pain or stress, there's a lot of energy that is being held in the past. Even happy memories might weigh us down because we might be stuck comparing our present lives to the “glory days”. Look forward to what else you can do for yourself and for others. And look back on the lessons you’ve learnt. But stay connected and grounded in the present because that’s what we have control over. Movement is a powerful tool for staying in the present because, although our minds often stray into the past and the future, our bodies remain in the now. So if you find yourself stuck in the past or the future, bring yourself into your body and move.

Today my guest is a wonderful human being, MJ Grant. She is best known for her viral video ‘Dementia Can Be Beautiful’. In the video MJ’s mother, Carmen, realizes that she’s speaking to her daughter. MJ says she would never want to embarrass or belittle her mother by telling her she’s forgotten what her daughter looks like, and lets her make the connection herself. MJ is a proud CODA (Child of Deaf Adults). She loves that her videos have connected millions of people to her mother, who worked in a factory even though she has a college degree.

We’re so lucky to have modern medicine, but we also need to be advocates for our own health and remember that one person’s point of view, even if they’re a doctor, may not always be right for us. For example, I was offered treatment options with harsh side effects for my hyperactive thyroid. But I tried some alternative medicine treatments, and my thyroid returned to normal.

Today's podcast is all about the power to do good. What often comes to mind when we think about power is the alpha male standing tall, having lots of money and having lots of ability to make an impact. But powerful leaders can operate by creating fear or by commanding respect. I think of power as the ability to do good things for others and invite us all to reframe power and check that we are assigning power to people who deserve respect.

When we cleanse we’re giving our digestive system a break so it’s not overloaded with the work of digesting, metabolizing and excreting all the stuff that we put in there. If our digestive system has less to deal with, it frees up energy that can be used in other parts of the body. Cleansing is also a great time to reframe our ideas about food and make sure we’re really seeing it as fuel. In this episode I cover my favorite things to do during a cleanse.
