1 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,720 Speaker 1: Philip at Billett. Welcome to the Heartiness Podcast. 2 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for having me. I'm very glad 3 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:16,239 Speaker 2: to be. 4 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,599 Speaker 3: Here, and we are talking about a subject that is 5 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 3: really important actually because part of my PhD I was 6 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:32,160 Speaker 3: researching around burnout and about half of people in Australian, 7 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 3: New Zealand and Singapore, UK, United States, roughly half across 8 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 3: all of those our feeling symptoms of burnout, and about 9 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 3: ninety percent are saying that it's getting worse. So this 10 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:52,240 Speaker 3: is a big expanding problem. You have written a book 11 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 3: called Ending Body Burnout, Why Body Burnout? 12 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I'm a functional medicine practitioner along with other modalities, 13 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 4: but we use the term body burnout because when burnout 14 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 4: has been happening for too long, it's not just it's 15 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 4: not just in the mind. 16 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,199 Speaker 2: At some point it starts off. 17 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 4: There if you're working a lot, or there's a lot 18 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 4: of chronic stress. But when that has been going on 19 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 4: for too long, your body systems literally start burning out 20 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 4: as well. So in functional medicine we're looking at what 21 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 4: body systems are burnt out, what are imbalanced and Yeah, 22 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 4: so essentially that's where that term comes from. 23 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 3: Okay, cool and so let's do a little dive before 24 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 3: we get into a boat, which are when you talk body, 25 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 3: do you mean you incorporating the Brillan here as well? 26 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:48,640 Speaker 1: Are you talking about lou the neck? 27 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 5: No? 28 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 2: Everything? 29 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 1: Right? 30 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, cool, So we're talking about the whole thing, but 31 00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 3: the physical body, not just the thoughts and and things 32 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 3: like that, they actual physical manifestation of it, yes, yeah. 33 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 2: And the three. 34 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 4: Main symptoms that often show up when someone's in deeper 35 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 4: depths of body burnout energy issues, definitely, mood issues, so 36 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 4: there's still mental emotional component to it, and gotten inflammatory 37 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 4: issues and that's usually when you know that those body 38 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 4: systems really burnt out. 39 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, cool. And so why did you write the book? 40 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: What inspired you to getting into it in the first class? 41 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 4: It was my journey first, So after I had Yeah, 42 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 4: I had body burnout three times, like three pretty big 43 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 4: episodes where I had a lot of chronic health issues, 44 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 4: and all started after my daughter, I had my first baby, 45 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:50,640 Speaker 4: so she's now thirteen. 46 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 2: And after I had her it. 47 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 4: Was quite a traumatic birth. So even previous before that, 48 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 4: I'd been doing a peer at a very young age, 49 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 4: and I was that classic overachiever, addictive doer, perfectionist. So 50 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 4: I was already creating all these burnout patterns inside my system. 51 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 4: But after I had my baby, my body literally just 52 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 4: burnt out. Yeah, and every month, instead of me bouncing 53 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 4: back as some women do when they have babies, I 54 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 4: was accumulating more and more and more health symptoms and 55 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 4: just got stuck in the medical system, like, you know, 56 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,560 Speaker 4: my bloods will come back fine. Sometimes my thorroad was 57 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 4: a little bit out, but not enough to be a 58 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 4: diagnosed disease. And so then I started looking into nutrition 59 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 4: and into the body systems, and then later on into 60 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 4: what we call the metaphysical parts of us, so the 61 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 4: unconscious mind, the neural pathways, the mental emotional component that 62 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 4: really caused the body burnout in myself in the first place. 63 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 3: That's an interesting combination, right, being a highly driven perfectionist, 64 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 3: because perfectionists are more prone to burnout yep, because it's 65 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 3: just nothing's ever good enough and it has to be 66 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 3: more and more and more and more more. B And 67 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 3: that I think in conjunction with being driven, because you know, 68 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 3: some people can be perfections about certain things, but when 69 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:21,640 Speaker 3: you're driven and perfectionistic, Oh, and then you're taking on 70 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 3: a pH D as well, and. 71 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,359 Speaker 2: Then syndrome as well. I'm like, I'm too young to 72 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 2: be here and I'm teaching people. 73 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,119 Speaker 1: So all of that stuff is bad enough. 74 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 3: And then you go through the stress of pregnancy, because 75 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 3: pregnancy is ludicrously stressful in the body. You know, women's 76 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 3: brains shrink in pregnancy. I think if women knew what 77 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 3: was what they were in for, freaking half of them 78 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 3: just wouldn't because it's just essentially and look, I've got 79 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 3: two kids and they're awesome, but they started off life 80 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 3: as parasites that just suck nutrients out of mum and 81 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 3: have pretty bad impacts. And it's interesting because I've done 82 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 3: a fair bit of research on what happens in the 83 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 3: brain in burnout, in what they call clinical burnout, so 84 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,280 Speaker 3: and the real of researchers, we'll talk about clinical and 85 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 3: non clinical burnout. And clinical is where you actually see 86 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 3: the brain becomes wired differently. There's loss of functional connectivity, 87 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: particularly in the frontal lobes. There's the amygdala gets bigger 88 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 3: and becomes more sensitive. There's just you know, there's a 89 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: whole weep of bad ship that goes on with that. 90 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 3: And then you throw in pregnancy on that and women's 91 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 3: brain shrinking basically because they're getting stripped of Nutrientsjee, it's 92 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 3: no surprise you ended up in as a basket case, and. 93 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 4: That is breastfeeding as well, so bleaching of nutrients. Yes, 94 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 4: it's interesting you say that though. So I remember when 95 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 4: we were trying to fell pregnant, I was also chucking 96 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 4: over exercising. Again, it was a perfectionism over achieving patternher 97 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 4: It's like, I can do twenty pull ups? 98 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 2: Can any other woman do twenty pull ups? I'm sure 99 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 2: there are lots of women that can. 100 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 4: And I remember when we fell pregnant with our first baby. 101 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 4: I ended up having a miscarriage. 102 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 2: But as soon as I felt. 103 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 4: Pregnant, it was probably about four weeks into the pregnancy, 104 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 4: my body just it felt very depleted. It was almost 105 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 4: like I was trying to do a little two kilometer 106 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 4: run as part of a fitness test and my legs 107 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 4: and my arms wouldn't move the way that they usually do. 108 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 4: I felt like lead and I feel like, you know, 109 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 4: there was lots going on, but definitely a dream or 110 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 4: fatigue was part of that as well. 111 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, yeah. So how long did it tick 112 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 1: you to get up? 113 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 3: I often talked about a vortex when it comes to bonot, 114 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 3: and I use the analogy of a woolpool, because the 115 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 3: lower dome you get, the stronger the dome would pool 116 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 3: actually becomes. 117 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,559 Speaker 1: And when you're in bonot, it's just right down there. 118 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 3: How long did it tick you to get out of 119 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 3: that vortex? 120 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 2: Okay, maybe ten years? 121 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: Oh Jesus. 122 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 4: So this is this is where the three burnouts came 123 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 4: into it. And I guess it makes the components of 124 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 4: my book because when I first when my daughter turned one, 125 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 4: I was given a book about nutrition, and by that 126 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 4: time I literally felt like an eighty year old. I 127 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 4: also had a lot of chronic pain in my body, 128 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 4: so some days I was lying in bed, couldn't even 129 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 4: pick up my baby, and read this book that you 130 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:53,040 Speaker 4: could heal your body with good food, that you could 131 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 4: prevent disease with clean, nutritious foods. So my initial step 132 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 4: into healing myself and into natural medicine was through nutrition. 133 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 2: Started fermenting foods and sprouting. 134 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 3: I was supposed to ask, did you get did you 135 00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 3: get perfectionistic of boat you? 136 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 4: Well, so this is why I'm getting out of burnout 137 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 4: took ten years because I was like one hundred and 138 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 4: ten percent. 139 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 2: Luckily, I stripped back exercise, so that was. 140 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 4: Beneficial, but look it did, it definitely supported my body 141 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 4: and I felt well enough another year later that I 142 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 4: went in for another baby. 143 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 2: So I had baby number two. 144 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:35,680 Speaker 1: Jesus, yeah, I know. 145 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:40,200 Speaker 4: And this time I'm like, things are going to be 146 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 4: so much better because I'm eating healthy, I'm not exercising 147 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 4: as much, I'm getting better sleep, I went down the 148 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 4: whole low tox living as well. Again quite perfectionist about it. 149 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 4: So I'm like, you know, I'm so healthy this time, 150 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,319 Speaker 4: it's going to be amazing. And I had Elsie, our 151 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 4: second baby, and I felt pretty good for two weeks, 152 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,920 Speaker 4: and at the two week mark, I'm like, ready to 153 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,360 Speaker 4: get back into work, let's do all the things. 154 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 2: And so all those. 155 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 4: Deeper patterns were still there and I couldn't out eat 156 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,680 Speaker 4: those deeper patterns, and so then all the symptoms came 157 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 4: raging back. And then that's what led me to functional 158 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 4: medicine to lab test different body systems, and you know, 159 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 4: discovered I had a dreamal fatigue and load, dopamine and 160 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 4: detox pathways and parasites and all sorts stuff, all sorts 161 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 4: of stuff, and started healing those and again things got better, 162 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 4: but it was almost like I had to wrap myself 163 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 4: up in cotton wool so that if I ate a 164 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 4: little bit of sugar or I had some I had 165 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,320 Speaker 4: a lot of histamine sensitivities as well, so if I 166 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,560 Speaker 4: had too much tomato, or if I had too much stress, 167 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,439 Speaker 4: and I do a lot of research around stress, so 168 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 4: I definitely wasn't hardy back then. Or if I only 169 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 4: got eight hours sleep instead of nine hours, slee symptoms 170 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 4: would start showing up. So I thought I was better, 171 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 4: but in hindsight, I was still only managing my symptoms. 172 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 4: And then things really boiled again in COVID so twenty twenty, 173 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 4: all the symptoms came raging back, including insomnia, which I'd 174 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,839 Speaker 4: never experienced. 175 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 2: Before, and that was the worst. 176 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 4: And that's where I realized that by this time my 177 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 4: practitioner as well, So it's helping people with their nutrition 178 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 4: with functional medicine protocols, and so I had all the 179 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,719 Speaker 4: physical toolkits, but nothing this time worked, nothing budged my 180 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 4: symptoms at all. And that's where I then dove deeper 181 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 4: into healing, deeper unconscious core beliefs and subconscious patterns around 182 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 4: that overdoing, which really was just coming from a fear 183 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 4: of being weak. 184 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 2: And incapable and being found out by other people. 185 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: And did juon cover were that? 186 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 3: Because often this shit comes from childhood stuff, right, Did 187 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,520 Speaker 3: you pull up that rock and have a look underneath? 188 00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 2: I pulled up every single rock. 189 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 4: And it was interesting because I had a like what 190 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 4: I thought was a normal, happy childhood. 191 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 2: I mean and I did. 192 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 4: I was very safe and loved, but looking back, I 193 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 4: was a shy kid and anxious and. 194 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 2: Really petrified. 195 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 4: It around using my voice, and it started off with 196 00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 4: public speaking. So an early defining moment was I think 197 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 4: I was about six or seven and I was I'd 198 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 4: memorized a little talk, so I think the talk was 199 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 4: only thirty seconds. It was tiny, tiny, but I was 200 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 4: so proud of myself. I'm like, is this going to 201 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,959 Speaker 4: be great? And I'm going to get off and I'm 202 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 4: going to say this talk and I'm not going to 203 00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 4: read it. And then the moment that I had the 204 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:01,320 Speaker 4: microphone in front of me, totally forgot what. I shut down, 205 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 4: shut down my systems like fight flight. Actually I was freeze, 206 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 4: burst out. 207 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 2: Crying was so humiliate. 208 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 4: And then I sat on the stage as every other 209 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:15,200 Speaker 4: little kid came up and did their talk perfectly. And 210 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 4: then that's where I started thinking, like, what's wrong with me? 211 00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 4: I'm not like the other kids? How can they do 212 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 4: that sort of stuff? And there was just a lot 213 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 4: of reoccurring events with a similar sort of feel that, yeah, 214 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 4: over time cemented a deep belief that I was incapable 215 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 4: and weak, and. 216 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 2: So then I had to try harder. 217 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: To try to prove that you weren't. 218 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 2: Exactly. 219 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 3: Isn't an interesting I often say that we are. Everybody 220 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 3: me included is living a personalized hallucination of reality. And 221 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 3: what I mean by that is that you know, our 222 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 3: reality is created by number one, our century perception. 223 00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: But then High the. 224 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,840 Speaker 3: Brillant makes sense of that, and what we now know 225 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 3: is that early life experience. You know, we're born with 226 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,319 Speaker 3: over two hundred billion neurons, and I think by about 227 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 3: the age of three, we've lost one hundred billion of them, 228 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 3: and particularly by seven, or at least by seven, we've 229 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,560 Speaker 3: lost over one hundred billion neurons. And it's not that 230 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 3: they die, it's synaptic pruning. It's that every experience that 231 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 3: you have when you're young shapes your brain and the 232 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 3: it's emotional experiences that have a disproportionate impact on your brain. 233 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: And they and our brains are like a filter. 234 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,559 Speaker 3: You know, everybody's viewing the world through these unique filtered glasses. 235 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 3: I remember our quote I think that just brought this 236 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 3: home to me by Amate Gotswami, who is a neuroscientist 237 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 3: and an astrophysicist and a philosopher Indian guy. 238 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 1: He's absolutely brilliant, and. 239 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:04,800 Speaker 3: He said that we do not perceive reality directly. We 240 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: perceive reality through the mirror of memory, right, and and 241 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,920 Speaker 3: and it's perfect right, because this is what we do. 242 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 3: Any experience that we have is filtered through all of 243 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 3: those memories. 244 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: That we're not every single one of them, but but. 245 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 3: They're filtered through this filter that is created by our 246 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 3: experiences of the word and particularly strong emotional experiences. And 247 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 3: and how many people are just influenced by that one 248 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 3: little moment when they were a kid and often humiliation, right, 249 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 3: that's I find that's a massive one. Humiliation and shame 250 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 3: fucking hell. They stay with you forever. That that that 251 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 3: colors your filter massively, and particularly the stuff when we're young, 252 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 3: I think, because then your body's just trying to keep 253 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 3: you safe right. 254 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's so interesting. You're so smart. I love the 255 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 2: way that you describe the things that I know, but 256 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 2: in a really scientific way. I'm like, what I didn't 257 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 2: know that about the billions of neurons and how it 258 00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 2: just like shrinks, But it's not because they died, it's 259 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 2: literally because you then become wired to be ship. 260 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 1: Yeah. 261 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 3: I think the Jesuit said this great saying, give me 262 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 3: a boy to the age of seven, and I'll give 263 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 3: you back a man, right, And neuroscientists call that the 264 00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 3: great period of development in the brain, and I think 265 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 3: it's just a huge and it just that there are 266 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 3: little things that happened that just affect us or can't 267 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 3: affect us for long periods unless we then start to 268 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:46,160 Speaker 3: understand them and then start to realize, you know, what's. 269 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 1: Still useful and what was useful. 270 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 3: When I was a kid, but it's no longer serving 271 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 3: me well, right, And I think that's the stuff that 272 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 3: we're going to talk about. But first of all, let's 273 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 3: start with it simple stuff. Right, Let's start So you 274 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 3: talk about three different systems in the book, right, and 275 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 3: you talk about let's talk first of all high level, 276 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 3: the link between the body the mind, and the environment 277 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 3: give us your thoughts on that. 278 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: They're all connected. 279 00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 4: So the body and the mind, every piece of us 280 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 4: inside of us, the body systems, our thoughts, our feelings, 281 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 4: our emotions, they're all interconnecting with each other. So for example, 282 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 4: I guess like in the health space, if we're talking 283 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 4: about physical we do talk a lot about inflammation. It's like, 284 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 4: what are the things that are inflaming our body? And 285 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 4: surface level stuff is like, yeah, toxins in our environment. 286 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 4: They can be things like mold that can cause mold illness. 287 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 4: There could also be you know, we've just had COVID 288 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:58,680 Speaker 4: a few years ago and some people are still suffering 289 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 4: from longhalk covid, So you can viruses parasites that are 290 00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 4: causing inflammation. But your thoughts are also can also be inflammatory. 291 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 4: So things like shameful, guiltful, fearful thoughts are producing the 292 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 4: same hormones and neurotransmitters as something that is toxic that's 293 00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 4: outside of you from your environment. And like those toxic 294 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 4: things from the environment too, could be relationships, it could 295 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:32,160 Speaker 4: be a workplace. It's all having the same chemical reaction 296 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 4: in the body. And so that's how Yeah, all three 297 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 4: are very interconnected. 298 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 1: There was a really interesting people. 299 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 3: I read Jesus fifteen years ago, and there's there's an 300 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 3: image that I could almost draw right now, but it 301 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 3: was pretty complicated. It was about psychological stress and high 302 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 3: psychological stress releases stress. 303 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: Hormones, then neu adrenaline, cortisol. 304 00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:03,640 Speaker 3: Other things that over time in high amounts can directly 305 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 3: cause type two diabetes, cardiovascular disease, increase your risk of cancer. 306 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:08,680 Speaker 1: All of that. 307 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 3: But then what was really interesting in this paper was 308 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 3: they described the pathways that happened that psychological stress then 309 00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 3: stimulated the release of certain molecules like nuclear factor kappa bravo, 310 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 3: which then stimulates the liver to produce acute fiaz proteins 311 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 3: and acute fias reactants. Right, And what most people don't 312 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 3: realize is that when you get sick, right, if you've 313 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 3: had a virus or something and you've got no energy, 314 00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 3: you're lying in bed, it's not the virus that's done it. 315 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 3: It's that your immune system has detected an invador and 316 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 3: tells the liver to release acute fiase proteins and qt 317 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 3: fiuz reactants that make you feel shit. 318 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 1: It's your body. 319 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 3: Each way of saying hey, Philippa, there's an inveador here, 320 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 3: and we need all of the energy to fight this 321 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:11,360 Speaker 3: inviader because your immune system is very expensive to run, right, 322 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:15,280 Speaker 3: And basically that's why you feel shit, and people who 323 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 3: are chronically stressed, we can measure these in the blood, right, 324 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 3: But then all of that stuff creates inflammation, as you said, 325 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:30,240 Speaker 3: and inflammation stimulates the growth of visceral fat, the fat 326 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 3: around your organs, which then has its own it's its 327 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 3: own hormonal factory. 328 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 1: It produces out adiple kinds. 329 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 3: They are hormones produced from visceral fat that then further 330 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 3: stimulate inflammation. 331 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: So we get into this nasty, vicious cycle. 332 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 3: And I think that, to your point, is why people 333 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,240 Speaker 3: who have burnout often end up with fibromyalgia or chronic 334 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 3: fatigue or autoimmune conditions, is because of their chronic systemic 335 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 3: inflammation that can all come from thinking about shit. Yeah, 336 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 3: and that stuff can be real or imaginary. 337 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 1: Right. 338 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 3: You can just be in your fucking head ruminating, stressing 339 00:20:13,560 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 3: about the future, ruminating about the past, and you create 340 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 3: straight you can create stress in your head that goes 341 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 3: in concert with all the input stress that you talked 342 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 3: about earlier on. 343 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 1: So it's rigging. Fascinating, isn't it? 344 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 4: It is crazy, and I see it in practice, and 345 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 4: also you know I touched on it in my own story, 346 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 4: where then healing can become inflammatory as well, where it's 347 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 4: like I have to do this perfectly otherwise I won't 348 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 4: get the right results, or I've tried so many things, 349 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 4: and oh is this just going to be another thing? 350 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 4: So it can become this very vicious cycle if you're 351 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 4: only doing the healing or trying to heal at a like, 352 00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 4: at a behavioral level. 353 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:04,600 Speaker 1: Right, So let's dive into it. 354 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 3: Let's talk about the body systems that you talk about 355 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 3: in the book. So let's talk first of all to 356 00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 3: our listeners about the I mean, we've talked a little 357 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 3: bit about it, but the impact that stress has on 358 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 3: bodily systems, and particularly from a functional medicine perspective, how 359 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 3: to test for stuff going wrong or imbalances of these. 360 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 1: Sorts of things. 361 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. Cool. 362 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 4: So, the three main body systems that I look at 363 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 4: in practice is the nearer endocrine system, the gastro intestinal system, 364 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 4: and the detoxification system. So the neuroendocrine system is looking 365 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 4: at your hormones and most predominantly the adrenals and also 366 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 4: sex hormones, but also thorroid logical levels, that sort of stuff. 367 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 2: And the mitochondria. 368 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 4: So the mitochondria is all about energy production, taking the 369 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 4: food that you're eating and converting that into ATP energy. 370 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 4: And we also test for neurotransmitters via urine, which I 371 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 4: think is really cool, so we can actually see, well, 372 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 4: what is the state of your what are the levels 373 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 4: of your dope meine eur adrenaline? It are they actually 374 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 4: burnt out? Is that you know, because we talk a 375 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 4: lot about the neurotransmitters getting burnt out and adrenal fatigue, 376 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 4: but not everyone has the same thing happening in their 377 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 4: body systems, even if their symptoms. 378 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 2: Might be the same. 379 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 4: And we also look at serotonin, which is the beautiful 380 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 4: neurotransmitter that helps us to feel safe and happy and 381 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 4: at peace and get great sleep at night. 382 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 2: So that's the neuroendocrine system. 383 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 3: And it often is can I just ask so when 384 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 3: you test for those neurotransmitters in the urine, presumably they're 385 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:53,720 Speaker 3: just reflective of what is being produced in the last metabolite. 386 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:59,040 Speaker 3: So what does that reflect? What time period does that reflect? 387 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: Is there? It's regarding surround that. 388 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't. 389 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,199 Speaker 4: I'm not sure one hundred percent that answer. So it 390 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:11,520 Speaker 4: is just a one spot urin test. But there it's 391 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:12,760 Speaker 4: an organic acid test. 392 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:13,160 Speaker 2: That we use. 393 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: Yes, I'm familiar with I'm familiar with that, just. 394 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 3: I've never done it and I'm just not aware of 395 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 3: you know how I'm because I know, for instance, if 396 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 3: you're testing for say vitamin B or vitamin C, that's 397 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 3: just reflective of what you've eaten pretty much in the 398 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 3: last twenty four hours. Right, So, but but this will 399 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,160 Speaker 3: give you an indication. It's a snapshot, but it's an 400 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 3: indication of of of how you're functioning basically at that 401 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 3: particular moment from a neurotrenchpartters perspective. 402 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 4: Yes, and when the lab companies were creating the lab test, 403 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 4: they were actually taking the same patients or the samples 404 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 4: and testing it every week to see if it was 405 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 4: something that was consistent or is it something that moves around. 406 00:24:03,160 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 2: So yeah, it usually is like a consistent thing. 407 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 4: It's not necessarily like, oh, I had a really relaxing day, 408 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,159 Speaker 4: my serotonin's good, but then the next day it was 409 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 4: really stressful. 410 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 2: It's low. It's actually pretty consistent in terms of that 411 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,400 Speaker 2: person's body's ability to be able to produce those neurotransmitters. 412 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:23,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I guess the whole idea is that with 413 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,400 Speaker 3: the chronic stress, that those vesicles that produce them can 414 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 3: actually get burnt out to. 415 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 1: You and just not going to produce them even if 416 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,399 Speaker 1: you haven't agreed there. 417 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:30,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 418 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, and we're looking at nutrient levels as well, so 419 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,200 Speaker 4: things like you need B six and tyrosine and trip 420 00:24:38,240 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 4: to fan they're key amino acids that help to support 421 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 4: those neurotransmitters. 422 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. 423 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,560 Speaker 2: So yeah, like it might be lack of diet. 424 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 4: It might be that someone's eating a really low protein 425 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 4: diet and that's why their body can't produce those neurotransmitters. 426 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:57,040 Speaker 4: But when you are in body burnout, your body becomes 427 00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,360 Speaker 4: quite catabolic as well, So you're actually starting to eat 428 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,280 Speaker 4: away your own muscle to chew and from the barone 429 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 4: and burning up those vitamin bs a lot faster than 430 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 4: someone who is healthy, well and balanced. 431 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 3: That reminds me of Professor Bruce Ems who created tree 432 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 3: ice theory, which is really caled I love this, and 433 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 3: he basically showed that when you are chronically stressed, your 434 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 3: bodies some survival mode, and it's always going to prioritize survival, right, 435 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 3: And so it has to make stress hormones, It has 436 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 3: to make cortisol, it has to make adrenaline, has to 437 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 3: make no adrenaline in large amounts. And he showed that 438 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 3: it robs the bringing a nervous system of nutrients to 439 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 3: create those stress hormones. And so that's why we end 440 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 3: up depleted, right, is that tree as is the body going. 441 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 3: Survival is critical. I need to produce shit heaps of 442 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 3: stress hormones. Forget about fucking optimal functioning right now. I 443 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 3: need those nutrients from over here. And I think this 444 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 3: really is billions why people have those cognitive symptoms, those 445 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 3: mood symptoms, because, as you rightly said earlier on, if 446 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 3: you're not producing urotransmitters, fucking good luck. 447 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. 448 00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, And it becomes a bit of a double edged 449 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 4: sword too, because a lot of people who are then exhausted, 450 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 4: not thinking straight, overwhelmed, pulling on convenient foods or foods 451 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 4: yeah like pep up their energy, Like caffeine, which is 452 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,639 Speaker 4: a diuretic, so it can pull more stuff out of 453 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 4: you rather than put into you. 454 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 3: And caffeine is just exogenous adrenaline essentially. I mean that's 455 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 3: why people drink coffee, you know, That's why they feel good, 456 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,639 Speaker 3: to get a boost of energy from the adrenaline. And 457 00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 3: I always say to people, you're borrowing from the adrenaline bank, 458 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 3: and the interest rates of the adrenaline bank are fucking crippling. 459 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:50,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 460 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 461 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 4: When we're testing for the brain and the adrenals, it 462 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:59,000 Speaker 4: is like a very strict no caffeine. Yeah, it will 463 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 4: mimic what you're what he's trying to do. 464 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So what other things you sorry because I 465 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: took us on a little deep dive there. So do 466 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: you are you testing? 467 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 3: Are you looking at cortisol profiles as well? DHA the 468 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 3: balance yeah, okay, yeah, yes, yeah, and that DTA cordisole 469 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 3: ratio presumably. 470 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 2: Yeap the HPA access. 471 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 4: So that's like how well is your brain sending the 472 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 4: signals down to the adrenals to not only produce cortisol, 473 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 4: but the more important hormone when you're looking at the 474 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 4: health of your adrenals is DHA. So that's the one 475 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,639 Speaker 4: that's balancing cortisol back into balance, and it's often the 476 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 4: one that depletes first, and then cortisole's left going crazy 477 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,360 Speaker 4: and essentially your system gets stuck in fight flight freeze 478 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 4: when that happens. 479 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,920 Speaker 1: And if you get little DTA, good luck producing tetoster 480 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: exactly an estrogen an esrogen. 481 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah, dCas have super important horrimble. 482 00:27:58,840 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 1: And do you look. 483 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 3: And the reason I'm asking this question because my little guy, 484 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 3: Oscar had ended up with Cushing's disease from a tumor 485 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 3: on the petuitary. So when they tested his first of all, 486 00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 3: they looked at his midnight salivary cortisol and it was 487 00:28:19,080 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 3: through the fucking roof, right, And then they did a 488 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 3: twenty four hour urine analysis of cortisol and he had 489 00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 3: sixteen times the upper limit of cortisol being produced in 490 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 3: his body every day because of the tumor. Right, But 491 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 3: this is what happens at a lower and fucking hell, 492 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 3: I saw the impact of that, like I saw this happy, 493 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 3: go lucky little kid who everything was going well for 494 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 3: and within I reckon, less than two months, he spiraled 495 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 3: into this deep, dark depression and he had no idea 496 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 3: what was going on on. He says, I don't know 497 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,120 Speaker 3: what's happening. I just don't feel like a kid anymore. 498 00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:08,479 Speaker 3: And that I mean I knew it for a bit 499 00:29:08,480 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 3: about court as all, but Jesus Christ that brought it 500 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,520 Speaker 3: home to me. And he started getting the moon fiercet 501 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 3: putting on and he's putting on weir, and this is 502 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 3: what happens. You get your body catabolizes your muscles, you 503 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 3: put on we it, you get a moon fierce, you 504 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 3: get a drags hump, like Jesus, hypercordas all emia. 505 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: Fucking hell, that's bad juju. Now Cushing's is obviously the 506 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: extreme of that, but it happens. 507 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:40,920 Speaker 3: You know, hypercordas omia is happening in Bernard and so interesting, 508 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 3: So you test. 509 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: That what other things are testing? So how do you 510 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 1: test for mitochondria and function? 511 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 3: Because that's interesting because I'm all over the the mitochondria 512 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 3: are so important, right. 513 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, So we're looking at it via urine as well, 514 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 4: and we're looking at the different nutrients and the metabolites 515 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 4: that are produced or needed through the citric acid cycle 516 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,479 Speaker 4: that then products yeah, the energy. 517 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So we're looking at seeing is there enough 518 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 3: to say that your mitochondria is functioning well. 519 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, and if there's nutritional deficiencies that are blocking 520 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 4: your ability to take fats, carbs or proteins and it 521 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 4: kind of looks at those macro nutrients separately as well. 522 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 4: Then yeah, the markers will show up high, but there's 523 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,920 Speaker 4: also a pattern that can show up. If a lot 524 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 4: of your mitochondria markers are low, then it actually means 525 00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 4: the cells have become damaged, which often happens with things 526 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,760 Speaker 4: like glandular fever, longhol, covid. 527 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 2: Toxins. 528 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think the mitochondria are becoming very 529 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 3: implicated in long covid and friberma, all of those different things. 530 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 3: So then what say, somebody's coming back low, and what 531 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 3: do you do with them or if they're coming back 532 00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 3: with a particular stress from the body systems, and what's 533 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 3: your approach in this holistic good to hear that, Yes. 534 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:10,240 Speaker 4: I mean like back in the day when I thought 535 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 4: that it's like just it well and take some supplements 536 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 4: and everything will be fine. 537 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 2: That is how I used to practice. It's like take 538 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:18,600 Speaker 2: this supplement for this marker. 539 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 4: Yes, I still do that because its speeds healing up 540 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 4: when you can discover exactly what your body needs and 541 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 4: you can give it at the therapeutic low dose and 542 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 4: for the duration. 543 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 2: That you need. 544 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 4: Then a lot of people, like within three to four 545 00:31:34,480 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 4: weeks is starting to get their energy back, They're starting 546 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 4: to feel a bit more calmer, mental clarity is clocking on, 547 00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 4: which then helps them to do more of that deeper 548 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 4: root cause work. And so that's where we're then diving into, 549 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:52,280 Speaker 4: like definitely lifestyle, but deeper looking at the patterns that 550 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 4: they're running that have led to their body systems burning 551 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 4: out in the first place. So a lot of those 552 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 4: overdoing busy perfection people, pleasing patterns, fear based patterns that 553 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 4: you know, if you're eating healthy but taking some supplements 554 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 4: and maybe sleeping well, your body is still going to 555 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 4: be burning up and burning through those body systems if 556 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 4: you've got an internal tiger constantly chasing you. 557 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 2: So we're working on all of that at the same time. 558 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,880 Speaker 3: And how are you assessing that is that through a 559 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 3: number of different questionnaires that you've created. 560 00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, so we all when I sorry, I should say 561 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:32,360 Speaker 4: when I say we, my husband. 562 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,360 Speaker 2: Works inside my practice as well, so it's christ and 563 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 2: Philly Functional Medicine. But when we're working with. 564 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,400 Speaker 4: Our clients, we'll look at their we're literally looking at patterns. 565 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 4: So just in the same way that to get the 566 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 4: physical data, we're using the lab test to look at, well, 567 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 4: what are the patterns showing up in your body systems, 568 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 4: which one of which ones are burnt out or overgrown? 569 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 4: When it comes to healing rewiring the deeper metaphysical parts 570 00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 4: of them, we start off with patterns that they're running 571 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 4: behavioral patterns, thought patterns, emotional patterns, and then start digging 572 00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,680 Speaker 4: in from there. So every behavior has a belief underneath. 573 00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 2: And so then we're getting into like, okay, the what's 574 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 2: a defunconscious core belief that you have about yourself? 575 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 4: And where did that come from? And what events cause 576 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 4: that to happen? And when we have all that data. 577 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 2: Then using different brain rewiring, subconscious repatenting practices to help 578 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 2: them essentially change their internal landscape. 579 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: What sort of modalities are you using here? 580 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 3: I mean I was hearing elements of CBT in there, 581 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 3: And what are there any particular modalities that you use 582 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 3: around these beliefs and helping to rewire. 583 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: Is it a system that you guys have come up with? 584 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, kind of like a mush of lots of things 585 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 4: that have right, So neural linguists, he's probably more so 586 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 4: than I'm not changed in CBT, but there are some crossovers. 587 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,040 Speaker 4: We also use a lot of somatic practices, so really 588 00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 4: like neurosensory practices where we can use the body and 589 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 4: self touch and breath to help the body and then 590 00:34:24,280 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 4: the brain actually feel safe because if we just stay 591 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 4: in our brain, in our mental conscious mind kind of 592 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 4: reframing that can it's wonderful and it's part of what 593 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 4: we do, but we need the body to also feel 594 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,800 Speaker 4: safe and to drop into a different way of being 595 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 4: and imagination, like when you can richly imagine something new, 596 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 4: and that's going back into the past and those distressing, 597 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 4: emotionally charged events that we were talking about earlier, When 598 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 4: you can richuly imagine a different ending or a different 599 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 4: way of being and move through your timeline and literally 600 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 4: like rewrite your own story. 601 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: Ah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 602 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 2: The unconscious mind doesn't know the difference between real and imagine, 603 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 2: so it's going to take it on as a new memory. 604 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,359 Speaker 1: Yeah.

I mean, is 637 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 3: there a is there a sort of a standard pathway 638 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 3: that you follow or is it very specific to the 639 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,440 Speaker 3: individual client. So what I'm trying of getting at is 640 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,560 Speaker 3: high how do you go about on covering some of 641 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 3: these unconscious beliefs that people may have they done in 642 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 3: a coach let's talk about your childhood sort of session. 643 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,719 Speaker 2: No, we've created inside of our program. 644 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 4: So we've got we've got like the physical protocols as 645 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 4: people are working through their body systems. That's going to 646 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 4: be individual based on what their lab tests come up as. 647 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:26,280 Speaker 4: But then on the metaphysical side of things, we've created 648 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 4: a process. So essentially it's called the first part is reckoning. 649 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 4: So get clear on your dysfunctional patterns, put all the 650 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:38,239 Speaker 4: dirty laundry out on the table. Then go back into 651 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 4: the past to connect the dots. It's like, why are 652 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 4: these patterns here? Where did they come from? And then 653 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:45,719 Speaker 4: what do you want? 654 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:46,240 Speaker 2: Instead? 655 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,440 Speaker 4: So really helping them to direct their brain towards what 656 00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 4: they do want, because if they get stuck in the past, 657 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 4: nothing changes. You can have so much awareness, but we 658 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 4: want to start seeding the brain towards where you want 659 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:02,160 Speaker 4: to go. And then the next part is rewiring the 660 00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:06,880 Speaker 4: brain nervous system regulation, and essentially the core components are 661 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 4: creating safeness in the body and deeper parts of you, 662 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:16,320 Speaker 4: rewriting those stories and those beliefs and those past events 663 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:19,880 Speaker 4: that have happened. And then this might sound a bit 664 00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 4: woo woo, but it's beautiful work starting to communicate with 665 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 4: your sensations because we believe that the symptoms that you 666 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 4: probably hate on, that you don't want to have anymore, 667 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 4: are actually just the most beautiful, loving messages trying to 668 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:36,240 Speaker 4: get your attention. 669 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 2: Pain is a great way to get. 670 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 4: Our attention, absolutely, and they have so much wisdom as well. 671 00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:47,280 Speaker 4: Like I mean, it probably wouldn't come to a surprise 672 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 4: that it's like, oh, okay, right, so this chronic pain 673 00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 4: is actually because I'm overworking, I'm doing too much. 674 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:56,080 Speaker 2: Why is that the case? 675 00:38:56,440 --> 00:39:00,640 Speaker 4: So I'm starting to work with the symptoms also using 676 00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:05,479 Speaker 4: some really specific brain rewiring or retraining techniques that come 677 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 4: from It stems from the research of phantom limb pain. 678 00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:14,840 Speaker 3: Ah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah cool, yeah, talks to 679 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:16,400 Speaker 3: you because this is fascinating. 680 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 4: Ship is so fascinating. I actually had a client yesterday 681 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 4: she's like, so, she's like, I don't want to use 682 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 4: the word skeptical, but what your brain controls your pain? 683 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 4: But then when I just talked about, yeah, well that's 684 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 4: what happens. When someone has an arm that has chopped off. 685 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,439 Speaker 4: They don't have a hand anymore, but they're feeling pain 686 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 4: in their hand. 687 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:36,800 Speaker 2: How the heck is that happening? 688 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 4: And so when someone's had chronic symptoms or you know, 689 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 4: they're missing their hand, the brain has remapped the way 690 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 4: that the rest of the body is experiencing their reality 691 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 4: or you know, they're experiencing their body. So I'll take 692 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 4: like something like bloating. You could do all sorts of 693 00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:01,280 Speaker 4: gut work, and for some people it heals bloating. It's fine, 694 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 4: But for other people the bloating is still there because 695 00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 4: over ten years of having this bloating, the brain has 696 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:12,759 Speaker 4: associated different triggers. So it might be food, it might 697 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,320 Speaker 4: be stressed, it might be a sell or a sound. 698 00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 4: And anytime the brain experience is that it sends that 699 00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 4: signal down to the gut and the bloating shows up. 700 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 4: But it's very common in chronic pain. What does it 701 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:30,239 Speaker 4: see chronic complex chronic pain disorder where you might have 702 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 4: had an injury to the back or the hip or 703 00:40:32,640 --> 00:40:36,399 Speaker 4: the leg. Physically it's healed, but the body is still in. 704 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 3: Pain and the nerve a system still hyper active, right, 705 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:44,720 Speaker 3: hyper sensitized to it. I remember I remember the Indian 706 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:49,919 Speaker 3: neuroscientists Ratchet Dim or something around Fantom Limpin who then 707 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 3: discovered the mirror trick that they use with people and 708 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 3: just bringing out a false hand and a mirror like 709 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,439 Speaker 3: I can't remember the detail because it was twenty years ago, 710 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 3: but it was just like fuck, that's crazy shit, and 711 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 3: actually hailed people's phantom limpians because it just confused the 712 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,319 Speaker 3: bri right and broader out of that pattern. Yeah, so 713 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 3: there's so much shit that we really don't understand. I'm 714 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:22,880 Speaker 3: interested in the nervous system. You talked about calming the 715 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 3: nervous system, because obviously when people are are burnt out, 716 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:31,839 Speaker 3: their nervous system is on high alert. So what sort 717 00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:35,120 Speaker 3: of stuff are you doing? You doing any vegal nerve 718 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,320 Speaker 3: type stuff with these people? 719 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, like mission number one, so the corries change, change 720 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 2: the deep unconscious care belief you have about yourself.

Like, I think that's important. 798 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,960 Speaker 4: I think people need to learn how they imagine, so 799 00:46:15,040 --> 00:46:17,879 Speaker 4: then you can use that up and like. 800 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,839 Speaker 3: It's like it's like learning, right, people learn, some people 801 00:46:20,960 --> 00:46:23,960 Speaker 3: learn auditory, some people are visual, right, So it's the 802 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 3: different learning starts, right, and so I need to tap 803 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 3: into a different way of visualizing or imagery. 804 00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 4: Sorry, yeah, or you just stick with auditory, okay, but 805 00:46:36,200 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 4: you really harness that and you can also practice like 806 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:45,399 Speaker 4: Almvrain is amazing, so you can practice different ways of 807 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 4: imagining as well. So anyway, like that imagination piece is 808 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:53,880 Speaker 4: like who do you want to be? Imagine in the morning, 809 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,680 Speaker 4: when you're in bed, before you get up for the day, 810 00:46:57,000 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 4: how are you going to show up to you? 811 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 2: Imagine your unconscious mind were taken on his new memory. 812 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the whole getting in touch with all of you. 813 00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 3: They're bringing all your senses to it and stuff like that, right, 814 00:47:12,160 --> 00:47:15,040 Speaker 3: the rich in the experience. Here, there's a guy in 815 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 3: Plymouth University did functional imagery training with athletes and then 816 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 3: did it with with with other people. Words that whole 817 00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:32,520 Speaker 3: functional imagery where there's a guided meditation and they create 818 00:47:32,680 --> 00:47:34,680 Speaker 3: that the whole thing, and they're bringing the whole census 819 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 3: and it's actually really really effective. So yeah, look, I 820 00:47:38,960 --> 00:47:41,719 Speaker 3: get it. I'm just I'm just ship at the visualizing bit, 821 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 3: but I am quite good at imagining, you know how 822 00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 3: I want to show up and all of that sort 823 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 3: of stuff. 824 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:53,399 Speaker 4: Right, yeah, yeah, awesome, Yeah, yeah cool. 825 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 3: Let's let's talk about the the last piece, which is 826 00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 3: the environment. So because obviously that obviously plays a role, 827 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 3: whether it's your house, your foods, your your workplace. You know, 828 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:14,239 Speaker 3: different stressors, different toxins that mean the fucking hell an 829 00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:19,280 Speaker 3: endless of might, right, plastics, microplastics, all of this stuff. 830 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 1: So what do you do. What's your approach in first 831 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:25,719 Speaker 1: helping people to. 832 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:31,760 Speaker 3: Analyze their environment and then around obviously getting an environment 833 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 3: that is supportive. 834 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, this is actually probably okay. I was going 835 00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 4: to say it's the easiest piece on the physical side 836 00:48:38,520 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 4: of things. It can be the easiest piece of the puzzle. 837 00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 4: I'll talk about relationships and stuff in a second, because 838 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 4: that would. 839 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's the kind of ones. 840 00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 1: There's a whole new podcast. 841 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:54,040 Speaker 2: There's a whole new vodcast. But I like to keep 842 00:48:54,080 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 2: it simple. 843 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:58,799 Speaker 4: When someone is looking at is there anything in their 844 00:48:58,840 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 4: house that might be preventing them from healing or causing 845 00:49:02,719 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 4: more body burnout to their body systems. So looking in 846 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 4: your cupboards, what skin care are you using, what cleanings 847 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:11,920 Speaker 4: are you using? 848 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 2: Also like, is. 849 00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 4: There any visual black mold anywhere in your house or 850 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:17,879 Speaker 4: can you smell it? 851 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 1: Because that will fuck you up big time? Right? So bad? 852 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 2: Not well, I mean it's it's bad. 853 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,320 Speaker 4: But a quarter of the population have a gene mutation 854 00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:34,040 Speaker 4: that causes them that causes their immune system to overact, 855 00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,520 Speaker 4: over react to the mold. So that's quite a big 856 00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 4: that's massive. So in terms of okay, if there's mold, 857 00:49:44,719 --> 00:49:46,759 Speaker 4: that's a whole thing to like get rid of that 858 00:49:46,920 --> 00:49:50,160 Speaker 4: or to move from that. But the skin care, cleaning products, 859 00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:55,920 Speaker 4: even your food sources, it's actually pretty easy. Not a 860 00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 4: lot of people are addicted to the toilet cleaner that 861 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,839 Speaker 4: they're using. Some people might find it harder to get 862 00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:05,040 Speaker 4: rid of chocolate or you know, processed sugar and that 863 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,359 Speaker 4: sort of stuff. But I would start off with your 864 00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 4: cleaning products, and there's so many options now where you 865 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 4: can buy organic, natural you can even make your own 866 00:50:16,280 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 4: very cheaply, very easily. 867 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 1: Vinegar and yeah, vinegars fucking oil. 868 00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:23,919 Speaker 2: That's great. 869 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the one. 870 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 3: Vinegar and bacarp disordered together.
