Who wants to get sick? No one! These days, there’s a lot of fear and uncertainty surrounding your health, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, so many health concerns from obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and more have always been a threat to us. Understandably, we’re concerned for our health now more than ever.

Health is one of the most crucial foundations of living a quality life. It’s also the key to overcoming the many diseases that threaten our lives. 

We’re Talking Shift is here with another episode that dives into health and how you can trust your body to get you back to 100%. Our host, Loree Bischoff, and producer, John Morris, get together for a conversation that’s all about teaching you to make the best decisions for yourself and take control of your health. You’ll learn how being healthy and supporting your body with the right mindset is exactly what you need to combat all this fear and illness all around you.

Join us in this eye-opening conversation to learn how you can take control and do what you can for your health even in the middle of a pandemic.

Knowing the State of Your Health
How’s your health recently? Whether you’re feeling strong and healthy or a little under the weather, the status of your health can play a role in how much different health issues can affect your life. Loree had recently had a bout of COVID-19. However, health has been a number one priority for her entire adult life. Thankfully, she easily bounced back and dealt with the body aches and fatigue that came from the virus.

There are so many contributing factors why illness can be both a mild difficulty and a severe disturbance in life to different people. John and Loree focus on how personal health can affect these things including your different lifestyle choices. 

Loree says, “You have so much control over what you’re gonna experience physically with your mind which I think is true but it’s a skill that has to really be developed…” Mindset also plays a subjective factor. The more you focus on your suffering, the more it can seem to worsen.

(Don’t) Be Afraid: How Fear-Mongering is Dominating Our Society
You’ve seen the newsfeeds during the COVID-19 pandemic. Fear was everywhere. News and other sources were always reporting on reasonable and sensible ways to keep safe, but a lot of it got mired in false news and fake information. All the confusion and bad news generates a lot of fear.

Loree, herself, saw this everywhere. However, she didn’t let the fear-mongering affect her from the very start. She used her intuition to discern what she was willing to believe and didn’t let anyone else dictate it for her. “My inside information was my gut, my intuition, my own relationship with my only true authority saying be discerning about what you’re willing to believe and take in,” Loree shared.

Each person and their may feel differently about what’s the best source of information. What’s important is that you don’t make decisions from a place of fear, instead, think of the bigger picture. Here’s what should you consider when making a decision:

❌ Fear, worry, anger
✔️ The Risks and Benefits
✔️ The Short and Long-term Effects
✔️ Your Gut Feeling and Intuition.

What Loree advises is this, “Take those logical things, reasonable things into consideration. Factor in what your gut tells you and then make the choice that you feel will allow you to sleep at night.” Be aware of how fear can be used to manipulate people and make sure you look and understand first. That’s how you make an important decision.

Trust Your Body 
Whatever the world around you is telling you to be afraid of, remember that your body is incredibly capable of keeping you alive and strong for years. “However old you are, if you’re in your 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, or 60s, your body has been proving to you every minute of every day that it’s taking care of you. It’s doing things you don’t even know it’s doing because that’s its job. That’s what it was designed to do,” Loree emphasizes.

Digging Deeper: Steps to Protecting Your Health
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 74% of Americans were overweight or obese in 2018 with that percentage continuing to rise. CDC also reports that obesity increases the risk for severe COVID. With such a large percentage of the population at risk, they reiterate the importance of using masks and getting vaccinated.

Loree also emphasizes that beyond these recommended protections, what’s important is managing your health. People are forgetting that prevention is better than cure. With so much uncertainty around COVID-19 protocols, what we know for sure is right is getting healthy, eating a better diet, doing regular exercise, and losing excess weight. Loree says, “What people need to hear is you need to get yourself healthier so that you have the ability to withstand and recover when something like this hits you.”

It’s important to do your research and critically search for the roots of the issue. There are many credible experts from all fields who talk about the importance of supporting your body to take care of your health. Do your research and find out what you can do to proactively take care of your health. Loree shares a piece of advice, "Rather than sitting around in a fearful state… be proactive about what you can do. That’s gonna go so far into making you feel like you don’t have to live in a state of fear.”

From Loree to You, Words of Encouragement Amidst COVID-19 and More
COVID-19 is just one of the many health issues we face every day. But remember, don’t let yourself stay in a state of fear.

Trust Yourself First, trust yourself and your own inner knowing. You know what’s best for you. Do your research and trust that you’re making the decisions that are right for you. Stay strong in your morals and convictions. At the same time, as always, #MYM mind your mind. Take care of your mental mindset and what’s in there. Avoid those fearful thoughts and emotions. Keeping them in your head makes you helpless. Instead, nurture your mind with the good things.

Greed, Just This OnceBe greedy with great health.
Your health is your number one priority. Make the necessary shifts to be at your best and reach your full potential. Loree reminds us, “When you’re at your best, the people around you are getting the best of you.” Do it for the people you love and, most importantly, do it for yourself.

Lastly, Loree and John remind you that you have a choice in how your health plays out. Step out of your state of fear and take control. As Loree assures, “It really is going to be okay.”

There may be a lot of fear and uncertainty in the world right now. But what you can trust are the capabilities of your body and your mind to shift towards a healthier life. Whether you’re stuck in your mindset or not sure what small changes you can make to control your health, we’re here to help at the We’re Talking Shift Podcast 🎧.

You can also talk with Loree, our host, and see how you can shift your life. We’re always talking about the different ways you can make a change for the better. Keep on joining us in our enlightening conversations!

Health is my religion. Like any faith system, it’s multi-faceted, encompassing my mental, physical, emotional & spiritual vitality. That’s how I know I can trust myself to make the right health decisions for me.
Similarly, mind, body & spirit coach, & former Army Captain Alec Zeck has learned from his unique life experiences. Before the current world health crisis, Alec knew he’d gone through generational trauma for a reason. He sensed that his self-healing would lead to his purpose.
Now Alec understands that calling is to help others understand the effects of manipulation, gaslighting & narcissistic abuse. You’ll be surprised to find out who may be using these tactics against you.
Alec & I encourage you to be proactive, not a follower. We must be able to share what we think people should consider before they do something they might not be able to undo. It’s dangerous to place blind faith in anyone & give them authority over your health.
The best thing Alec & I can do is point you back to yourself. Only you can decide what will bring on a health shift in your life!

Alec Zeck grew up in a beautiful home in the suburbs with everything a kid could want, including a father who coached his basketball team. But Alec’s home was also a narcissistically abusive environment, a place he was always fearful & where he began believing the things he was told about himself.
As an adult, he attended West Point Academy, becoming an Army Captain & playing on an Olympic sports team. Alec had found new labels to identify with, but was still externalizing his self-worth based on how others saw him.
What Alec experienced in his childhood would resurface continually, causing chaos in his life. He was forced to search inward for the healing he needed. That’s when this soldier took on another label—‘survivor of generational trauma.’
Healing begins when we reframe the past & apply new meaning to it. That will generate different thoughts & emotions. Alec’s journey to self-love began when he realized he deserves to heal.
We are all divinely, inherently worthy. But we let ourselves & each other forget that. Well, Alec & I are going to remind you, while sharing some steps you can take towards healing past traumas. Let’s talk some SHIFT!

Pills, surgeries, injections, and more, this is what we believe medicine is. Many of us grew up thinking that the only path to health was running to a doctor for help. Today, you’ll be amazed to learn that medicine is much more than hospital treatments or daily spoken affirmations. All that you need to find health, wellness, and healing is already at your fingertips. You just have to drop into it.

Joining us to share her story and what she learned as both a patient and doctor is Dr. Cassie Huckaby, the Founder of Grit Natural Medicine. She helps us understand what medicine is and how we can use it in our lives to heal and change for a better us. You’ll learn how powerful you are when you tap into the truth within your mind, body, and soul to recover from impossible illnesses and achieve optimal health.

Tune in to this wonderful story of overcoming sickness and finding health through naturopathic medicine. Discover the medicine that will make your mind, body, and soul feel good.

Now Is the Time to Look For the Truth
“We’re being forced into admitting that we are uncertain, that we don’t know certain things. And with that, we don’t have the confidence within our capacity and ability to take the next step forward for us.”

That is what Dr. Cassie Huckaby says about today. The COVID-19 pandemic is a time of chaos and uncertainty. However, it’s just this moment that people become tired of the lies and limitations and are now calling for the truth.

Now, we’re looking to shake things up. People are uncomfortable and a lot of us are unwell, even if we present a healthy facade. We have to look at every part of our lives and look internally — look at what’s true. However, not everyone has the capacity to respond well and buffer the chaos we’re experiencing.

We’re realizing that we are the biggest obstacle in our own way. Everything has internal roots. However, at the same time, we are also our greatest power. This time of uncertainty is a massive opportunity to open ourselves up to this power.

The Meaning of Medicine
If you’re someone who has tried everything for health but nothing sticks, maybe, as Dr Huckaby said, “You have to change to change.” 

The things you are doing for your health such as taking supplements, having surgeries, and more are not medicine. These are just tools. But if these things that happen in hospitals aren’t medicine, what is?

Dr Huckaby answers this question. “[Medicine] is what you think, breathe, do, feel every single second of every single day. You are dosing yourself all day long. That is medicine… Your mind is medicine, your life is medicine, your being is medicine, your whole experience is medicine.” If your health is not where you want it to be despite all the tools you’ve used and things you’ve tried, look instead at what you’re doing and thinking because that is medicine.

Loree boils down Dr. Huckaby’s explanation of medicine into three key elements:

• Understanding the inherent powers of our body and our mind
• Learning how to use these powers for our health and wellbeing, and
• Understanding how to inhabit our life.

Believe in Nothing, Open Yourself to Everything
One of the first things Dr Huckaby does with a patient when they go to her is comb through their neurological programming. We all have these belief systems hardwired into our subconscious that will sabotage us no matter how much we want and try to achieve something. Uprooting and washing out that programming is central to taking control of your health. 

Be aware that what creates health and what creates disease isn’t always on the physical plane. There can be more at play and we need to be aware of that. Supplements can’t help with things that have metaphysical roots but  many people don’t believe this. She shares that, “what most people are doing is all of this capacity within the human psyche, within the human body, within existence is being used against them every single second of every single day.”
 
Dr. Huckaby encourages us to move forward without our beliefs. Wash out, put everything on the table, and open yourself to everything that’s up for grabs.

Dr. Huckaby’s Going Rogue Story: The Doors That Open at Rock Bottom
In the past, Dr Huckaby also had her own beliefs. She thought she knew everything. However, after a series of vaccinations in college, her health started declining and Dr. Huckaby was diagnosed with multiple autoimmune conditions. At that point, she was studying to go to medical school and she turned to the medical industry to find out what they could do for her. However, her choice was to undergo treatment that destroyed her body or just go home and accept that there was nothing that could be done.

This was when Dr Huckaby’s world changed for the worse. At this point, she felt defeated. She tells us, “When you have no options, you have to be available if there’s any hope in you.” “I was wide open because I had no options.” When she realized the industry she had worked hard to be a part of could do nothing for her, she was at her lowest point. However, this was also the time when she heard about a voodoo doctor and she was open enough to accept it.

Human society doesn’t value natural medicine, instead preferring conventional, allopathic medicine. Despite her own misgivings, Dr Huckaby went to the voodoo clinic to shadow. There, she found a different world in the hospital setting. The voodoo doctors spent hours with each patient, getting to know how they feel, finding out their experiences in life, and more about them. It was an all-new experience that changed how Dr Huckaby viewed medicine and health.

About Dr Cassie Huckaby
Dr. Huckaby is a Naturopathic Physician and the Founder of Grit Natural Medicine. She combined modern-world quantum medicine and ancient wisdom of healing to help others find freedom in their health. Dr Huckaby is passionate about helping her patients understand the language of their bodies and how their mind and soul impact their physical health. By understanding this truth and with a lot of grit and work, she helps her patients obtain optimal health and live a fulfilling life.

As Dr Huckaby tells us at the end of our conversation, with belief in your wholeness and power, your body is always with you and always healing you. “If you’re listening, if you’re here, you have all that you need,” she says. Take care of your body and listen to it. It will tell you the shifts you need to make and will point you toward the right decision that will make you feel good. 

If you’re still not sure about how you can make this shift, We’re Talking Shift with Loree Bischoff is always here to help. We talk about the shifts we need to make in our lives to get unstuck, be healthy, and happily move forward in our lives.

We know how important it is to take care of our body and appreciate how it heals us and keeps us alive. After listening to this episode, what mindset shifts do you need to make to tap into your body’s natural power of healing?

Most of us aspire to chase our dreams. Nearly all of us run from our nightmares. But few of us realize those scenes that play out while we’re fast asleep can serve as a true compass for our lives.
Bestselling author & certified clinical hypnotherapist, Kelly Sullivan Walden dove into a world far beyond her subconscious during a near-death experience. Ever since, she’s made it her mission to help us realize the power of our dreams.
What goes on in our sleepy heads is somewhat coded, so we tend to discount it because we don’t understand the messages. Kelly can help us make sense of some common dreams & determine their unique meaning for different people.
Nightmares are the unsung heroes of our unconscious mind. We don’t want to experience them, but they get our attention so that we’ll take action. Having the same one over & over means we haven’t made the necessary adjustment yet.
There is scientific proof that paying attention to our dreams makes us more intuitive navigators of our waking life. Your mind is already wired to make this shift. Kelly is sharing what we must do to make it happen!
Kelly’s latest work of heart is ‘Luminous Humanness,’ a meditation guidebook to inspire you to live the light of your most glorious self every day. Get it on Amazon & listen to ‘Ask Doctor Dream’ on Unity FM radio.

Well if you’re not, your spouse may be waiting for you to be the one to step up & make a change. One of you has to.

We’re back, with more transformative health tips to keep you out of the doctor’s office! The right foods may be just the medicine you need to combat chronic pain or fatigue, autoimmune symptoms, & mental unwellness.
Holistic health isn’t just an area of expertise—it’s my lifestyle. Everything I’m sharing has worked for me, my family & my clients. Our bodies were created to keep us thriving for an entire lifetime, without needing pills or injections.
My fellow coach Lauren Geertsen was told as a teen that she’d be on medication for her entire life. Her autoimmune disease was incurable, according to physicians. But Lauren followed her intuition, did extensive research, & healed herself in three short months. She got off the meds & avoided life-altering surgery.
You can start down the same path to a healthier body & mind, with the simple changes we’re suggesting this week. If you missed part one of our conversation, go back to last week’s episode & check that out first.

Our bodies are miraculous. They do the work to keep us alive, healthy, & thriving. Yet we betray their wisdom by silencing any uncomfortable symptoms with pharmaceuticals.
70% of Americans are on prescription drugs. It’s as if people believe eventually needing medication is the normal course of action for the human body. I see this in many of the clients who come to me for holistic health coaching. They think their meds will be part of the plan—until they realize they don’t need them anymore.
Body connection coach & author Lauren Geertsen speaks on this from experience. Having chronic health issues while growing up, she was provided with an arsenal of medications. They did nothing to heal what Lauren now understands were her true ailments—stress & anxiety.
Taking a pill instead of eating differently or making other lifestyle changes is pretty extreme. Lauren & I are suggesting some alternatives that anyone can do, & are not expensive or time consuming.
There is a five-minute change can you make to shift to a healthier lifestyle. Do that for five days & voila! You have a new, non-negotiable ritual. Then you add another small change. Now doesn’t that sound more reasonable?
