  • 'Conspirituality' - or, WTF is Going On?
    In this episode, recorded 30 October 2020, I interview David Stone for the third time in this first YogiOnline podcast season.
    David is is a quantum healer contactable on Facebook and at www.embodiedsoulawakening.com
    We discuss around the theme of ‘Conspirituality ‘– an appropriate subtitle might well be, WTF is Going on?!
    I recorded this in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. A couple of weeks earlier I had attended a local “speakers corner” event, questioning the lockdown, and found myself chatting to various people, some of whom were not attending the speakers corner. And as I chatted I realised that a perception was becoming embedded in the national psyche; that those who opposed the lockdown were in effect right wing activists. This was deeply shocking to me, and I felt in that moment even more the acute polarisation that was cutting an even deeper wedge between us and our friends and neighbours, all whipped up by a corporate-owned media.
    So many of us have been divided and polarised by our beliefs and opinions about the lockdown, and pitted against one another. To my mind this is next-level psychological high jinx and I wanted to explore exactly this with David – and what ensues is a lively, provocative and deeply insightful conversation.
    We discuss good and evil, right and left and other conceptual binaries- and the chasms that seem to be appearing in this great divide. We talk about the fallings out , the manipulations, and the bigger picture. Prepare for an esoteric, no holds barred conversation. Just how I like ‘em!

  • My Keto Experience - 30 Days in!

    Today's episode is a follow-up to the previous one, in which I found out all about the ketogenic diet from my friend, local Public Health Ambassador, Maia Sutherland.

  • The Keto Diet - what is it and how does it work to improve health?

    In this episode of the YogiOnline podcast I interview Maia Sutherland, a Keto Diet expert and an enthusiastic advocate for its wide-ranging health benefits.

    Keto is a very high fat, moderate protein and very low carb diet, gaining popularity and interest across the wellness world.

    Maia is an ambassador for the British Public Health Collaboration group, a collaboration of doctors and other clinicians who use a low carbohydrate approach to healthcare in their practices to help patients reverse health conditions such as type 2 diabetes and obesity, and more.

    Interestingly I was feeling VERY peri-menopausal when I recorded this interview: full of brain fog, headache, achiness and fatigue - and in this interview Maia talks about her experiences with similar peri-menopausal symptoms and how she managed them through this revolutionary dietary approach. She shares her knowledge and experience of eating for ketogenesis for 14 months now and the amazing benefits she is getting.

    Maia throws down a CHALLENGE - out of the blue - in this interview - to try the Ketogenic diet for a month! Find out if I take her up on it...!

    Maia has provided some really extensive notes and links in the show notes for further study (see below):

Any information about nutrition, supplements or lifestyle we offer does not take the place of professional medical advice and any lifestyle changes you are contemplating undertaking should be discussed between you and your doctor.

    Notes for further study:

    Dr Westman from Duke University: 20 years experience in ketosis, gathering as much data as possible and using the ketogenic diet successfully in a clinical setting.

    Dr Jason Fung: A nephrologist in a Canadian Hospital, getting his diabetic patients out of diabetes using keto and fasting. Everything about ketosis and fasting especially in reference to diabetes, but not exclusively. One of the best people to begin with for information. Explains very well how and why eating carbohydrates leads to the illnesses it does - not soley diabetes - and how we are designed to spend time being fat-burners not sugar-burners.

    Typeonegrit is a Facebook group for type 1 diabetics.

    Also Andrew Koutnik’s work as a Type1 using keto.

    Dr Bernstein is deeply influential for Type1s.

    Dr Unwin: is a British Doctor, very easy to understand and very successful at getting his patients (50%!) to reverse their diabetes.

    Jeff Volek and Dr Stephen Phinny are both very easy to learn from, delightful and clear, excellent when you are beginning, and onwards too. They are at Virta Health, an amazing body aiming high to reduce diabetes around the world. They also do a lot of studies with athletes and keto.

    Tim Noaks was an ultra marathon runner who wrote a bestselling book the Lore of Running. Now he is writing a second undoing much of the first! Very good if you want to understand Keto and training.

    Gary Taubes and Nina Teicholz are brilliant investigative journalists. Their work is invaluable.

    Dr Nadir Ali. Keto friendly Cardiologist using keto to help his patients.

    Emma Gross: keto for migraine, working with Dom D’Agostino, and linking the work with seizures & migraine too.

    Dominic D’Agostino: his work is amazing. He works with the Navy Seals and NASA to optimise their performance under stressful environments. His work is also leading to the development of exogenous ketones to help with seizures, dementia etc.

    Dr Thomas Seyfried for oncology, amazing talks about cancer from a metabolic perspective.

    Dr Nasha Winters... keto for oncology... This woman is brilliant. She taught Alison Gannet and has been doing this for twenty years with her patients after surviving stage 4 ovarian cancer at 19 and being given three months to live.

    Benjamin Bikman is utterly brilliant, super kind and a delight to listen to. His expertise is insulin itself, also interesting talks about how we change our white fat to more like brown fat. He is an insulin scientist , and he lectures students about this, so very easy to learn from.

    Dr Georgia Ede: amazing views from a brain chemistry perspective and using low-carb or keto to remedy depression, bipolar and other mental heath issues.

    Ignacio Cuaranta is an Argentinian psychiatrist using keto with patients.

    Get the Cronometer app, the free edition is fine.

    The Diet Doctor web is well worth joining.

    The Public Health Collaboration is a UK based group of clinicians and lay ambassadors promoting low carb and ketogenic ways of eating in Britain, to improve health outcomes for a range of diseases and conditions.

  • The Mysterious Kundalini - with Mystical Voyager. An interview with EDM (trance)music + a guided meditation

    Something a tad different from the usual format - music and spoken word! Recorded in February 2019 on www.soundartradio.org.uk, YogiOnline joins Dave on his trance (EDM) music radio show. In between some seriously far out psychedelic beats, Steph shares about what Kundalini Energy is, what chakras are and how yoga works. We finish off with a beautiful guided Golden Temple breath meditation.

  • Being Body-Kind: Body Positivity, Narcissism & the Media, Intuitive Eating,
    A fascinating interview with Dinah Gibbons of BODYKINDFESTIVAL.COM, from 2019.
    Bodykind is a unique and delightful thing – it’s a festival of BODY ACCEPTANCE AND BODY POSITIVITY- and it takes place in my home town of Totnes, in SW of England. Its aim is to offer a truly radical and inclusionary space for the exploration of diversity in all its forms.
    We tak
    We talk about why there is a need for a body positivity festival, about the pathologising of plus sizes and the shame around being bigger.
    We talked about narcissism in the media, intuitive eating, and about the ways in which we can interrupt the toxic narratives and maintain a degree of wellbeing and good mental health with it all.
    I hope you enjoy this interview, I found it very enlightening myself.

  • Trauma, the Roots of Shame & Narcissism with David Stone
    After a medical in his 20s sent him on a worldwide search for healing, David trained as a Gestalt Therapist amongst many other modalities and since around 2015 has worked intensively with the healer Mas Sajady. David has integrated the extensive knowledge he’s gathered from 20 years of training alongside his own healing journey into an approach he calls “Embodied Soul Awakening.” And alongside offering private consultations has a series of interviews and booklets all available online for free. David and I hadn’t spoken for years until this interview in Spring 2019 and it was a real pleasure to reconnect – he is definitely a soul brother on the path.
    We TALKED ABOUT the illness that lead to his flight from the corporate worlds, his awakening, his experiences of living in what he calls a ‘death cult’, finding Gestalt therapy and the psychotherapeutic process. 
    We talk about ancestral trauma, the roots of shame and its impact, we discuss narcissism in its positive and negative affects, and so much more. Please be aware that there is the use of the F word once in this audio, and my dog starts barking half way through. This is a recording of an online conversation so please bear with the audio quality – not optimum but absolutely tolerable!
