But fully understanding what they do, who is best suited to use them and, perhaps more importantly, how they are sourced can be a bit of a gray area. Clinical herbalist Cali Simpson breaks down in this episode the potential for optimal wellness in areas such as energy, focus, sleep, and the immune system these herbs hold for us.

The age of plant and natural medicine is here, and thought-leaders and medical professionals such as Dr. Hyla Cass, MD are leading the charge.

Nationally acclaimed innovator and expert in the fields of integrative medicine, psychiatry, and addiction recovery, Dr. Cass helps individuals to take charge of their health. One area of expertise is helping individuals to withdraw from both psychiatric medication and substances of abuse with the aid of natural supplements, some of which are part of her own line of innovative nutritional supplements.

Dr. Cass appears often as a guest on national radio and television, including The Dr. Oz Show, E! Entertainment, and The View, and in national print media. She is the author of several best-selling books including: Natural Highs, 8 Weeks to Vibrant Health, Supplement your Prescription: What Your Doctor Doesn’t Know About Nutrition, and The Addicted Brain and How to Break Free.

A member of the Medical Advisory Board of the Health Sciences Institute and Taste for Life Magazine, she is also Associate Editor of Total Health Magazine, she has served on the boards of California Citizens for Health and the American College for Advancement in Medicine (ACAM).

A native of Toronto, she graduated from the University of Toronto School of Medicine, interned at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center, and completed a psychiatric residency at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center/UCLA.

What would you do if you had one year left to live? How would you spend your days, what would you do, where would you go? Traver Boehm was in the midst of a divorce, addicted to pornography and social media, and was the most unfulfilled he had ever been... and then decided to give his life an expiration date. This self-discovery period began in darkness (literally) and ended in the most transformational experience of his life.

Are we truly experiencing and connecting with our emotions, or are we simply treating them like our most recent obsession on Netflix and watching them from a safe distance? This realization of living vs observing our emotions came pouring out of Sheila Darcey, a.k.a. the Sketchpoetic, once she began to put pen to paper.

Her art became an emotional translator of years of suppressed thoughts, beliefs, pain, and joy. Sheila continues to use this form of expression as not only her own therapeutic tool but is now her mission to share this practice with the world and to help others find their own way to optimal well being.

Laurin Conlin's interest of nutrition started from a very disordered place; as she was anorexic for many years growing up. Her interest then shifted to nutrition and performance as a track and field athlete in high school, to then an amateur bodybuilder.

She competed for several years as an NPC Figure competitor before making the switch to the Bikini division. In 2014, she won the overall at NPC Nationals in Bikini, earning her professional status. Laurin has competed for several years as an IFBB Bikini pro since.

In this episode, Laurin shares with Joe not only her personal story but how she believes obtaining true health is not only possible but a necessity. In a world where seemingly anyone can "slide into your DM's" and call themselves a "coach" she is here to disrupt that pattern and optimize your nutrition, training, and overall lifestyle.

Watch. Listen. Observe. Some of the key principles that today's guest, Daniel Rama, weaves into his yoga practice. This podcast brings to light the unique potential we as humans can have when we chose to observe our practice (and life), as well as the ability of choice that presents itself when we make space for it.

Daniel spent several years in an ashram learning from world-class speakers and practitioners that allowed his flow and his philosophy to progress to the level it is today. He explains how there is really one true yoga practice and the variances we have come to know and expect from it; postures, energy systems, and meditation.

What does yoga mean to you? Where are you in your practice?Wherever you are on your journey we would love to know how you are getting to know and care for yourself. Connect with us @curednutrition on our most recent post and share your flow philosophy!
