The Success SHIFT

Our guest this week is my good friend, Dr. Aimie Apigian is a double board-certified medical physician in both preventive and addiction medicine and holds a double Master's degrees in Biochemistry and in Public Health.

She is the leading medical expert on addressing stored trauma in the body through her signature model and methodology, the Biology of Trauma.

This methodology courageously uplevels the old methods of trauma work and medicine by reverse-engineering trauma's effects on the nervous system and body at a cellular level.

She also specializes in trauma attachment and addictions after having personal experience in foster parenting, adopting, and then having her own health issues that were a result of childhood and life experiences.

Tune in and enjoy listening while learning!

Talking points:

• The biology of trauma not only refers to the downstream effects of stored trauma in the body, but also the biology that will predispose someone to experiencing the trauma. So our biology actually makes our survival system, our nervous system, more sensitive and vulnerable to attack.

• Stress or overwhelming life events shape our biology and actually cause disease later on in life.
• Trauma is epigenetic. It can actually modify your DNA, so that it can then be transmitted down and have very serious physical effects like on our mortality and creating disease in our body.
• Trauma is a feature of the autonomic nervous system, something that is subconscious.

Have you, a family member, or friend suffered from sudden or unexplainable feelings of depression?

You're not alone!

Welcome to another special collaboration between the Stress to Success S.H.I.F.T. podcast and Dr. Dan Cardellichio's Destination Health podcast!

Today's special guest is Dr. Achina Stein.

Dr. Achina is a functional psychiatrist, as well as Amazon's International Best-selling Author of What If It's Not Depression: Your Guide to Finding Answers and Solutions.

Dr. Achina is also on the world-class panel of experts in our Brain Reboot Summit series.

Propelled by her son's sudden mental health crisis in 2010, Dr. Achina wasn't satisfied that his acute depression and suicide attempt were caused by a simple chemincal imbalance in his brain.

The tip-off was that he also had physical symptoms like double vision, eczema, and digestive issues too, in addition to the sudden appearance of depression.

She found functional medicine as she learned that her son had Celiac disease, an autoimmune condition that impacts the gut. It also causes leaky gut syndrome and allows inflammation to skyrocket in other areas of the body, including the brain.

Now, as a companion to her book, she offers programs to find and reverse all the root causes of your depression and depression like symptoms.

Can you relate?

Listen in to learn more!

Topics Discussed:

• How depression is not simply caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain as previously thought
• How you can use food to create your own neurotransmitters – the chemical messengers in the brain, like Serotonin, that makes you feel good
• How depression is caused by various forms of stress, including the physical stress of inflammation and infections, toxins, in addition to the usual stress culprits
• How a big cause of inflammation is poor nutrition, particularly foods you might unknowingly be sensitive to
• How multiple conditions are caused by dysfunction of the immune system, where the immune system turns on the body, like:
• • Allergies
  • Eczema
  • Psoriasis
  • Celiac disease
  • Thyroid conditions like Graves' and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis
  • Asthma
  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Lupus
  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) like Chrohn's or Ulcerative Colitis
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Type 1 Diabetes
  • Guillain-Barre Syndrome
  • Vitiligo
  • Rheumatic Fever
  • Pernicious Anemia
  • Alopecia Areata
  • Immune thrombocytopenic purpura
  • Vasculitis

Ti Caudron, PhD, founder of VitaliTi Wellness and a Sustainable Weight Loss Expert, is passionate about helping people over 40 with stubborn weight.

She has helped more than 10,000 people finally lose weight and keep it off.

Her specialty is breaking the cycle of weight loss and regain that many people experience. Dr. Ti uses proven, science-based nutrition and sustainable weight loss strategies specifically for people over 40, which are left out of most weight-loss programs.

Dr. Ti is also one of the world-class experts featured in the Brain Reboot event series that I also have the pleasure of being a part of.

I asked Dr. Ti here today so we could discuss the different ways stress causes weight gain, especially that unhealthy belly fat. She also shared her top three easy tips to start on the path to sustainable weight loss.

Listen in to learn more!

Talking points:

• Stress causes an increase in cortisol hormone which then causes weight gain on many different levels through such mechanisms as raising your blood sugar and increasing insulin (which causes you to store more fat)
• Stress causes you to turn to comfort _________ … fill in the blank with your favourite food (like carbs) or beverage (like coke, coffee, or alcohol), even if you're not hungry.
• Stress can cause poor sleep, which then also leads to stubborn belly weight gain.
• Cortisol hormone has gotten a bad reputation when in fact it's a necessary part of a healthy stress response to keep you safe.
• You can be eating tons of food and your body will still get the signal that you're hungry.
• Dr. Ti's three tips to start reversing the nasty cycle of stubborn stress-related weight gain.

Michael Ostrolenk has been exploring the relationship between post-conventional living, transformational leadership, optimising health and regenerative paradigms his whole life.

His interest in human growth and personal development began when he was 9 years old and worked with psychotherapist Pat Lawson learning biofeedback, meditation and guided imagery.

The fact that Michael started his journey so young really intrigued me!

So, while we will have him on again as a guest to explore the myriad of ways his expertise can help his clients, today's focus is on the adversity and disability Michael experienced as a child.

"Our mess is so often our message" in that it can break us or make us -– and it can be the catalyst for a lifetime of learning and helping others as in Michael's case.

… Not bad for someone who struggled with a learning disability!

Talking points:

• How his learning disability then led to other mental and emotional challenges like obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
• The importance of self-advocacy, even as a child
• The importance of parental support and listening to the child
• How "unconventional" solutions like biofeedback, meditation, and martial arts saved him
• The danger of labelling children with diagnoses rather than seeing them as whole people with needs due to underlying concerns
• The danger of treating all learning disabilities with a one-size-fits-all approach
• How he was originally "diagnosed" with being lazy since he really was brilliant in many areas even though his academic performance was low in others
• How there may be underlying issues like an undiagnosed traumatic brain injury (TBI) that are misdiagnosed if recognized at all
• That someone diagnosed with a learning disability may actually be neurodivergent and a genius, where they simply think differently.
