In part two of this episode, I talk with my mentor, Morley Robbins, about how food additives, "undigested" emotions, and a lack of certain nutrients impact the delicate balance of the gut microbiome. We touch on the GI tract being an oxygen poor environment and how when bile get's rusty, it sets the stage for the breakdown of multiple organ functions. We go deeper into cellular energy deficiency, the disease model, and why we should question not only the allopathic model of care but the alternative model too.

In part one of this episode, I talk with my mentor, Morley Robbins, about how the "hidden organ" plays a central role in the vitality of our immune system and gut health. We touch on how antibiotics, pasteurization of milk, iron<>copper dysregulation have all negatively impacted the health of this organ and, in turn, our overall immune system function. Morley shares some interesting and fun facts about just how critical the health of this one organ really is.

In this episode, we explore the overlooked link between stress patterns and physical health, revealing how chronic stress disrupts the body's mineral balance, leading to symptoms and disease. I take you through a practical exercise, to help you learn to identify stress patterns and understand their role in chronic conditions. I also discuss broader stress factors like sleep and diet, highlighting their impact on overall health and how the use of certain diagnostic tests can offer personalized solutions to rebalance mineral levels, providing hope for improved well-being.

In this episode, I help you understand why protecting your energy actually disconnects you from your personal power and your ability to identify and expand your energetic boundaries for solving problems with clarity and intention.

Whether you're seeking to enhance your intuition or simply understand the subtle dynamics of energetic flow, this podcast episode will provide valuable insights and actionable strategies to help you thrive.

In this episode, I speak with Morley Robbins, who is an expert in mineral metabolism. He provides insight into the ways that fear and iron dysregulation interact to lock our nervous system into the dreaded fight/flight/freeze/fawn patterns while also creating the perfect conditions for the process that we call disease. We discuss what's required to quiet the brain and help support the body back to its optimal level of health so that the nervous system can stabilize and the individual can return to a more balanced state of health.

In this episode, I explore the concept of survival physiology and its impact on health. I address how unresolved emotional conflicts can trigger survival responses, altering mineral levels in the body. Specifically, I discuss the freeze response, and how it impcts and depletes key mineral levels in the body for optimal function. Understanding these adaptations shed light on symptoms of dysregulation, and disease, offering insights into holistic healing approaches.
