I was fortunate enough to interview my longtime mentor and the creator of Mind Map, Dax Moy, a few weeks ago.  

If you’ve ever wondered about the origins of Mind Map or what the thought process was behind it, then  you are going to want to take a listen.  

In this episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, Dax shares some knowledge about the NEED for creating Mind Mapping, what Bio Map and Body Map are and how the brain and nervous system are always trying to tell us something.  

When we just continue to use the same approach of grind, go harder, push through, then we will lose that battle every time.  

Take a listen and enjoy! 

Last year, about this same time, I was giving a lot of deep thought to what it means to be a man.  

Where was I falling short and where do I continue to fall short? 

Maybe it’s natural to have thoughts of this magnitude when the seasons change.  

Check that, I believe it’s imperative to have thoughts like this when the seasons change.  

Real men are tough and stern.  Real men don’t play the victim.  Real men are in shape.

The list goes on.

When you were younger, you were probably able to get away with a lot more at the table and your eating habits and not pay a price for it.  

Although, that doesn’t mean you were necessarily healthy.  

As we age, we need to take into account a few other factors and there’s a better approach than just cutting calories. 

Going back to the early 2000’s, when I began competing in bodybuilding, I learned how to train with injuries.  

Over the years, I’ve become known as an expert and how to train with and help injuries heal faster.  

The absolute worst thing that you can when you get an injury is to stop training.  

Yes, you read that correctly.  

If you want to know why and what to do, take a listen to today’s episode. 

The Hardest Thing I’ve Ever Done 

Ten days ago, we were up in New Hampshire attempting to climb Mt. Washington.  

Last year, I didn’t make it.  

This year, I was inspired to give it my best.

We made it, it was unreal.

I had to use every tool I had in mind, body and spirit.  No stone was left unturned.

In today’s episode, I break it all down. 

A week ago, we had our 4th installment in our seminar series with Dr. Andrey Espinoza about how to have the healthiest heart around.

Lucky for you, I recorded an episode for you on my portion of the talk.  

If you want to know:

• How much sodium you need and why keeping salt low is one of the most harmful pieces of health advice ever given
• Why sleep is the king when it comes to health and the simplest way to begin with better sleep hygiene
• The difference in metabolism between fasting and the standard North American Diets
• What happens with the master hormone Insulin and why its the key factor in dramatically changing your health
• Two radically different ways to look at food and body fat
• And much more…

Ever since I can remember, I knew that a big part of helping people transform their lives was a combination of things, one of which was teaching them so they understood on some level why they were doing what they were doing. 

Fasting is no different.  

I can’t tell you how often I hear that ‘I fast, I do the 8 hour window’.  Which is fine and dandy, that’s what I did for a number of years, before I really understood the power of fasting.  

In today’s episode, I break down how fasting actually works and how it can and should have a compounding effect on your health and wellness.  

(If you’d really like to master the practice of fasting, see below for the upcoming Panda Challenge). 

A little over two years ago, I was quarantined in our room with one of the worst cases of flu ever seen.  

It didn’t kill me, but Devon thought it might.  It was the real deal. 

Anyhow, I had an idea and my notebook.  The idea was the concept of the Panda Diet, something I had been brainstorming for a few months.  

I had nothing else to do and no energy to move, so I began to write and map out the Panda Diet.  

It was literally created while I was down and out with the flu.  

In today’s episode, I talk about the creation of Panda, the history and the process.  

Last week, one of my brothers, Presh, was asking if I thought there was censorship around fasting just like how they censor so many other things these days.  

Afterall, fasting does change the health for the positive dramatically in those that try it.  

While I don’t think there’s censorship around fasting, I do believe the current way of eating has been systematically installed over the past century to make a society of unhealthy, mind numbed, zombies.  

I touch on this here and there from time to time, but in this episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, I devote my full attention to it.

Which means that a lot of people will be thinking about their eating a bit more. 

It’s natural in the winter to ease up and eat more ‘rich’ foods.  

This is part of the human hibernation theory that I believe to be true.  

Anyhow, in today’s episode, I discuss why we are like Cacti living in a forest.  

And to take it one step further, you are more like a camel than  you think.  

Once you connect these dots, fasting will make a lot more sense to you.
