Learn about the challenges of weight-loss, psychology of losing weight, middle-age spread, obesity, weight gain and illness, caring about your weight, social media and body shape, why it is so difficult to lose weight and keep it off and much much more. The Ryoho perspective on weight-loss is fascinating and different and we highly recommend you listen to these insights if you’re thinking about your weight and body shape.

Drug use is complex and diverse and in this episode we shed some light on what it means to fulfil a need by taking drugs, what to do to recover as quickly possible and a magnificent reason to stay away from dangerous, toxic and sometimes lethal substances. Loads of fascinating and helpful Ryoho Wellness insights and perspectives that may just help someone you love, or you. We discuss illegal and legal drugs and the impact of taking drugs whether it’s at a suburban BBQ, rave party, schoolies week, teenage birthday party, work parties, in the comforts of your own home or in any other circumstance you can imagine. Drugs are becoming normalised in our society across all age groups and all demographics and some think it’s OK to do drugs, and others not. Some believe alcohol is a drug and some don’t. Some are not aware that they are addicted to prescription or sleeping pills, some don’t believe they’ll ever become addicted to the cocaine or ice they take and and others feel they have full control over what they put into their bodies and always will. But do they?

If someone has a heart attack AND they are really healthy looking, we’re left wondering, “why did that happen?” And so in this Episode we look at why some people who seemingly are NOT candidates for cardiac issues, present with very high cholesterol or present with serious cardiac health issues.

We also look at a multitude of other topics associated with heart health and what you can do to make sure that you look after your life-giving heart.

This Episode is for people who have suffered heart attacks and survived, for people who fall into a high risk category for whatever reason, for family and friends who know someone who has had a heart attack and for people who are into Wellness. And remember If you or anyone you know are at all concerned about your heart health, please consult your doctor ASAP.

In this Episode we explore headaches, including severe migraines, debilitating cluster headaches, headaches in children and pregnant women and regular but not-too-severe headaches. Headaches are so common, and don’t need to be, as you’ll discover in this Ryoho Wellness Podcast.

Depression is reaching epidemic proportions in our community, it doesn’t discriminate and is evident amongst teenagers, adults and elderly, who all have different triggers and circumstances going on in their stage of life. In this wide-ranging Episode, we talk about depression from a Ryoho perspective and what can be done to help people come out of depression and fully recover from this intense mental health issue.

This Podcast is for everyone – for people suffering depression, family, friends and carers of people with depression as well as those that have recovered – and in it we ask some tough questions that we hope provides some new insights.
