Red Light Therapy, Mitochondria, and the Future of Your Healing
Apr 600:43:25Tap to summarizeLight is something we interact with every day, yet most of us rarely stop to consider how profoundly it influences our biology, including energy production, cellular health, tissue repair, and overall health. Our brilliant guest, Ari Whitten, is the founder of The Energy Blueprint, a bestselling author, and one of the leading educators in photobiomodulation and human energy optimization. With a background in exercise science, human nutrition, and functional medicine, Ari has deep expertise in mitochondrial health, circadian rhythm and sleep, nutrition, gut health, light therapies, fitness, and hormetic stress.

Your body's cells use coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) to produce the energy needed for cell growth and health, similar to light therapy. However, your levels naturally decline with age, so pairing Nano CoQ10 with light therapy and a healthy lifestyle works synergistically for optimal healing!

How Mindset Shapes Thyroid, Breast, and Whole-Body Health
Mar 2300:47:44Tap to summarize"80% of your healing is MINDSET." - Dr. Heather Stone. Dr. Heather Stone, DC, is a leading expert, author, and speaker known for her root-cause, investigative approach to thyroid health, Hashimoto's, and complex "mystery health challenges." For more than 20 years, she has helped women uncover the hidden drivers of illness—many of which overlap with breast cancer—and reclaim vibrant, lasting health. Mindset is the way you think and feel that programs your subconscious mind. It's literally running your life. In reality, if you stop, evaluate, and honestly answer questions like: What am I thinking? What do I believe about my body's ability to heal? How am I feeling about what is possible for me? You may be shocked by how easily you can move the needle in your healing once you work on the 80%. Tune in to dive deep into her mindset strategies and the other intentional steps she takes with the thousands of women she has helped find vibrant health with her Thyriod Transformation Blueprint. The conversation also explores key physiological strategies, including the importance of maintaining balanced iodine levels. One of Dr. V's major ah-ha moments was increasing her iodine levels. Once she did that, her healing also soared. Click here to learn more about the iodine, thyroid, and breast cancer connection—and learn more about our Iodine Support supplement here.

How Chronic Stress Quietly Hijacks Your Health
Mar 900:53:51Tap to summarizeStress = mental and physical health issues, is nothing new. We all know that. Which is why we reached out to Dr. Jorina Elbers, a board-certified neurologist and HeartMath Medical Director. To go deeper into what our bodies are trying to tell us through stress and the damage it causes. She explains how chronic stress and trauma can dysregulate the nervous system. This leads to symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, sleep issues, pain, digestive problems, and emotional overwhelm. Rather than seeing these as separate issues. She shows how they're often connected by a single root cause: a system stuck in fight-or-flight or shutdown. Tune in to learn more about how to step out of your stress shutdown cycle of damage. Why the medication-first model often misses the bigger picture. And, most importantly, discover drug-free and evidence-based tools that can help restore balance.

Tapping Into Hope & Healing with Dale Teplitz
Jan 1200:47:14Tap to summarize"I felt like Humpty Dumpty on the wall in the nursery rhyme that fell down and broke into a hundred pieces. No matter what they did, no well-meaning doctor could put me back together again. I had seen so many practitioners, and nothing helped; I wasted a lot of money and effort." Chances are, you can relate to Dale Teplitz's story of Hope and Healing. We have all been there. But then one day, Dale found a practitioner who took a dramatically different approach. She invited Dale to use Emotional Freedom Technique (Tapping) while focusing on a past traumatic event that occurred right before her illness, which caused chronic pain, fatigue, and hopelessness. Days later, she woke up feeling well, happy, and at peace. Dale has turned her pain into passion and has spent the last 30 years coaching healthcare professionals and people on a healing journey about harnessing the power of EFT for optimal mind and body health. Tune in to hear fascinating stories about the unique ways people use EFT—from golfers sinking a tournament-winning putt to overcoming food cravings, and managing stress related to a cancer diagnosis.
