Wed, 21 Dec 2022 20:00:00 -0500

Ep#136 Today’s guest is Susan Burrell, an intuitive healer and spiritual guide whose own journey toward finding true empowerment has inspired her to do the same for women in the crossroads of life. She is the author of "Live An Empowered Life" and the host of the podcast, "Empowering Chats With Susan Burrell - Journey to Freedom, Brilliance and Opulence."

I loved this vulnerable conversation with Susan which centers around the shared subject matter of healing from covert narcissistic abuse. We talk about how this specific experience of suffering catalyzed us to find the courage to make big changes in our life no matter how difficult they might seem. And as we went through the different stages of healing to process the effects of what happened , it made us go deep within to find ourselves again. Susan and I discuss how our spiritual tools and wisdom teachings played such a key part in freeing ourselves from trauma and emotional pain. We talked about how being exposed to narcissistic abuse served as a sacred invitation to reclaim our worth, re-discover the divinity within, learn to nourish and care for ourselves with genuine self love and ultimately find ways to prioritize living a healthy, joy filled life.

Healing Food Addiction - Susan Pierce Thompson, Founder of Bright Line Eating

Thu, 11 Aug 2022 00:00:00 -0400

Ep#117 Today’s episode shines the light on a whole new way to understand compulsive overeating and that’s through the lens of food addiction. Research suggests something more complex might be going on with some foods that we eat that affect the brain’s reward system similarly to the way addictive drugs do. When addiction is the underlying cause of obesity, traditional treatment with diets that rely on personal responsibility, lifestyle changes or “willpower”can have minimal effects.

Today’s guest is a visionary and leader in the field of food addiction. She is Susan Peirce Thompson, Ph.D.Adjunct Associate Professor of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Rochester, and an expert in the psychology of eating. She is a best selling author with 3 books, “Bright Line Eating: The Science of Living Happy, Thin, and Free”., "The Official Bright Line Eating Cookbook - Weight Loss Made Simple", and her newest book, "Rezoom: The Powerful Reframe to end the Crash-and-Burn Cycle of Food Addiction.”

Susan is President of the Institute for Sustainable Weight Loss and CEO of Bright Line Eating Solutions (BLE), a company dedicated to helping people achieve long-term, sustainable weight loss by showing you how to rewire your brain and break the yo-yo diet cycle. BLE is geared towards those who are susceptible to addictive foods and have struggled to find peace and sanity around food.

Grounded in psychology and neuroscience Susan’s program uses cutting edge research to explain how modern processed foods impact the addiction centers of the brain. The complete opposite of the deprivation diet mindset, Bright Line Eating seeks to empower people for life, by creating a supportive community to heal the deeper emotional components that underlie addictive behaviors by integrating the tools of Positive Psychology and Internal Family Systems.

But Bright Line Eating is more than just a way of eating—it’s a movement. Their incredibly close-knit Online Support Community is the core of their program and provides the outreach and human connection essential to success. Thousands of people from more than 60 countries have participated in their information packed online courses, and their community is growing by tens of thousands each month.

Dr. Valerie Gershenhorn is a board certified practicing dermatologist, who, as an osteopathic doctor, has always been committed to a whole person approach to medicine.

Today's guest is Magic Barclay and the list of challenges life has thrown her way has been formidable. They include: childhood trauma, alcoholism, relationship abuse, anorexia, obesity, cancer, diabetes and autoimmunity. In 2015, after years of intense stress and physical negligence culminated and threatened to end her life, Magic immersed herself in nutrition, wellness and natural healing giving her pivotal tools in her own recovery.

Feeling let down by the traditional medical system, Magic subsequently joined forces with other wholistic health practitioners, who had been in similar situations, and formed a group called Wholistic Natural Health Australia. A small group of integrative practitioners, Wholistic Natural Health’s aim is to assist people who are dissatisfied with the current health care system by addressing root causes and guiding people toward an ethical, sustainable lifestyle for long-term health. All of their practitioners have battled and overcome major health issues hat include cancer, lymphoedema, hypoxia, stenosis, autoimmune diseases, and diabetes. So they not only ‘walk the walk’ but they ‘talk the talk’ too.

Magic is also an instructor on on the PNEI of Trauma and has gone on to become a Best Selling Author of two books:” Gut Recovery and Whole Foods” and “Stop Being Fat: Love Yourself Skinny''.

Finally, Magic is the host of her own podcast, “A Magical Life, Health, Wealth and Weight Loss.” You can learn more about Magic at https://www.magicbarclay.com and her services at https://www.wholisticnaturalhealth.com.au

Transcending Fear and Childhood Trauma By Coming Home To Your Authentic Self - With Life Coach and Author Terri Kozlowski

Thu, 05 May 2022 00:00:00 -0400

EP#105 As babies, we come into this world, fully embodying authenticity, we are born loving absolutely everything about ourselves, we play, sing, twirl around; fully expressing ourselves never worrying about what the other babies are doing or thinking about us,; we come in expecting nothing but love, care, security and comfort. Our original natural state is pure love, joy, pure authenticity. Overtime, we adapt by suppressing our true nature, we learn to fine tuning our behaviors based on our environment to secure our basic needs to feel safety, love and belonging. Depending on our life circumstances, some of us had to give up less of our authenticity to receive love and care while others traded way more than they could afford, disconnecting totally from their authentic selves as a way to cope with family trauma, dysfunction or abuse.

Finding our way back home to our core nature is a courageous journey and today’s special guest is an extraordinary example of its healing power. I speak with Terri Kozlwoski, practical Soul and Life Coach, PodcastHost and author of the critically acclaimed memoir, "Raven Transcending Fear, A Memoir About Overcoming Sexual Abuse, Abandonment and Discovering Your Authentic Self."

How Running and Meditation Saved My Life - Nita Sweeney, Author and Mental Health Advocate

Thu, 28 Apr 2022 00:00:00 -0400

Ep#104 All too often in the wellness world, especially in the diet and fitness circles, our mental and emotional well being doesn’t get the attention it deserves. It’s a huge blindspot because how we feel and what we think is so fundamental. Mental health disorders are linked to the prevalence, progression, and outcome of some of today’s most pressing chronic diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. They increase the risk for substance abuse and addiction. Our mental health affects how we handle and respond to stress, make choices, relate to ourselves and others. Bottomline, mental health IS health. When our mind is suffering, our whole being suffers.

Today’s episode is a poignant example of how our bodies have the power to heal our minds and how our minds have the power to heal our bodies. I talk with Nita Sweeney, an award-winning wellness author of the running and mental health memoir, Depression Hates a Moving Target: How Running with My Dog Brought Me Back from the Brink , and her upcoming book, Make Every Move a Meditation, which was recently featured in the Wall Street Journal. Nita’s personal journey of overcoming a lifetime of chronic depression and anxiety through a unique combination of running, writing and meditation is a powerful example of how it really is never too late to reclaim our health and happiness. Her story, a brave and honest account of beating the odds and cultivating inner resilience is incredible inspiration for anyone struggling with mental health or even just stuck in a rut and needing to make some healthy lifestyle changes.

Ep#103 Today’s guest has a truly inspiring story of self healing and personal empowerment. If you’ve ever felt dismissed, ignored or not believed about a health issue or chronic struggle or perhaps been told, “it’s too late for you to change”, “it’s all in your head” ; you are going to want to listen to my conversation with Dawn Cady.

Thu, 14 Apr 2022 00:00:00 -0400

Ep#102 There is an abundance of research that shows that adopting healthy behaviors alone won’t get us where we want to go, we need to find ways to cultivate healthy thoughts too. It’s quite profound to think that by simply challenging our own perceptions we can see improvements in our health. On this special solo episode, I share why health messaging needs to move beyond nutrition and exercise and take the role of mindset just as seriously.

Finding Love and Magic With Intuitive Coach Ronnie Ann Ryan

Thu, 17 Mar 2022 00:00:00 -0400

Ep#098 The principle that everyone is doing the best they can based on their current level of awareness gives way to a space where we can kindly and consciously do the work we need on our inner selves that’s essential to generating the positive life enhancing changes we all desire. Without this genuine commitment to working from the inside out, we remain in this mental tug of war with what we say we want and what we actually do. No matter our goals, better health, a rewarding career, or fulfilling relationships, it’s key that we acknowledge how the limitations of our inner resources (i..e our mindset, history, sense of self) can make having what we want super challenging.

Why Non Doing Is the Most Productive Thing You Can Do - Jessie Kanzer, Author, Speaker, Intuitive

Thu, 24 Feb 2022 00:00:00 -0500

Ep#095 How can a book written in 400 BC be a powerful guide for how to live today? The Tao Te Ching a classic of Chinese philosophical literature, reminds us that spending less time trying to manipulate situations, people and circumstances to get what we want and more time aligning ourselves to the natural flow of things is the way to a joyful existence.

A Radical Paradigm For Overcoming Chronic Disease - Nauman Naeem M.D.

Thu, 23 Dec 2021 00:00:00 -0500

Ep#087 Fed up with fad diets and fake wellness? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food and self care challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

On this episode we dive deeper into the realm of consciousness and healing and explore a paradigm that places us firmly in the driver seat of our health and life . That is of course if we are willing to embark on a path of self realization, radical acceptance and ultimately unconditional self love. If you're frustrated with modern medicine’s approach to illness as separate from all other aspects of our lives and the manner it's confined to treating the physical nature of our humanness, this show is for you.

My guest is Dr. Nauman Naeem, a physician specializing in pulmonary and critical care medicine whose quest to understand the true nature of healing and disease has taken him far beyond the confines of conventional medicine and into the realm of mind body medicine, consciousness and metaphysics. Practicing in both the US and Canada for over 2 decades treating tens of thousands of patients, Dr. Naeem observed that the majoritiy of patients with chronic disease do not heal, and that a percentage of which have no desire to heal. This realization compelled him to dive deeper into the psychology of healing.

We discuss his illuminating book, "Healing From The Inside Out: Overcome Chronic Disease And Radically Change Your Life."

Dr. Naeem continues his conventional medical practice in Ontario Canada, along with teaching, coaching, and consulting on all that he has learned.

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

The critical importance of gathering insights into why we do what we do to achieve true well being is why we are talking again with Enneagram practitioner and holistic therapist, Ann Gadd who we just had on in Episode 79, How Knowing Your Enneagram Personality Type Can Impact Your Relationship With Food

Today we discuss her eye opening book, Sex and the Enneagram: A Guide to Passionate Relationships for the Nine Personality Types. In our conversation, Ann explains how the Enneagram is an empowering tool to reveal and explore our sexuality and connect with our hidden shadow sides so that we can experience a deeper, more authentic expression of ourselves.

Through the lens of sexuality Ann explains how the Enneagram system gives us an understanding of our subconscious motivations, beliefs, and habitual behaviour patterns.

Because, it turns out learning how we get our intimate relationship needs met gives us important clues about how we get our general needs met, and vice versa.

Listen to this elevated conversation about our sexuality as a doorway to self discovery, emotional maturity and therefore true well being.

How Our Story Influences Our Health and Happiness

Thu, 04 Nov 2021 00:00:00 -0400

Ep#080 Fed up with fad diets and fake wellness? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food and self care challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

I often say that it's not the challenges in our life that cause our suffering, it's the story we tell ourselves about it. Our greatest power to influence our health and happiness is our ability to direct our mind in an intelligent way. This begins with developing awareness to the personal narrative being generated at the level of the unconscious. That's where real healing and transformation takes place.

In this special solo episode, I share my favorite strategies to help you harnass the power of the mind's story making tendencies so you can develop a mental caliber that you can draw in even the most difficult of circumstances.

How Knowing Your Enneagram Personality Type Can Impact Your Relationship With Food - Ann Gadd

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

Discovering the “why we do what we do” is fundamental if we want to make real positive changes in our lives. When we strive to be genuinely curious about ourselves we have the opportunity to get underneath behaviors that can seem illogical or contradictory. Such a big piece of health is learning to become a keen observer of our beliefs, attitudes because they are what drive our habitual patterns.

Today’s guest is Ann Gadd, an artist, writer, speaker, workshop facilitator and accredited Enneagram practitioner. The Enneagam is an eclectic personality development system that can help us better understand our core beliefs and motivations.

We dive deep into the role that our personality type plays when it comes to our relationship with food. Ann is the author of over 23 books including “The Enneagram of Eating” How the 9 Personality Types Influence Your Food, Diet and Exercise Choices. Ann and I talk about how seeing our mental tendencies using the Enneagram is a powerful doorway to shifting our eating and exercising habits. Ann believes passionately that understanding our personality type is the first step to recognizing how we unconsciously limit ourselves in spite of the potential wholeness that we all are. She teaches that it’s through deep acknowledgement of our fixations and passions, that we can free ourselves from them. Ann explains how the Enneagram is a powerful tool for having an empowering relationship with food, our bodies and our true selves.

If we accept that the energetic frequencies of pleasure, joy and relaxation are central to the innate healing powers of these bodies and that true well being is the path of self realization then the exploration of our sexuality as a pathway to optimal health and happiness is paramount.

Ep#075 Fed up with fad diets and fake wellness? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food and self care challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

As I often say, caring for your body yields a certain level of health, caring for your mind and emotions yields really positive results, but when you work at the soul level and step into the spiritual domain, that’s the gold.

Genuine vitality comes from an experience of your true self, detaching from the unconscious beliefs that obstruct the essence of who and what you really are.

What if aging was a portal to discovering our true self?

My special guest is giving people life changing tools to embrace aging as an advanced stage of human development, the next spiritual frontier. I speak with Connie Zweig, PhD, retired Jungian psychotherapist, writer and bestselling author about her latest book, The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul where is she invites us to confront our unconscious beliefs around aging and reimagine later life as an enriching opportunity to experience more presence, to loosen the grip of our busy ego and to trade the image of youth for the depth of age. Dr. Zweig has led seminars nationwide on meditation, spirituality and Shadow Work, helping people let go of past roles, deepen self-knowledge and step into a more expansive and authentic sense of self.

Finding the Sacred In Food

Ep#072 Fed up with fad diets and fake wellness? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food and self care challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

When it comes to the food we eat, I’ve shared a lot about the healing power of eating whole foods, plant centered, anti-inflammatory foods, gut health etc. but today I’d like to share a new lens to see this thing we all do everyday called eating. I invite you to explore with me this question: Can the food we eat be nourishing not just your body but equally on the soul level as well?

I believe understanding and conecting with the sanctity of the food we eat is huge missing piece in Western nutrition. By feeling into the sacred nature of food we can cultivate a deeply nourishing relationship with food and our bodies that can help cut through all the pseudo wellness gimmicks and diet culture. Finding the sacred in food is a key to personal iberation when it comes to the full healing potential of food.

In this solo epiosde, I share my top strategies for embodying this reality of food as sacred.

Why We Need More Self Acceptance and Less Self Improvement

Ep#070 Fed up with fad diets and fake wellness? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food and self care challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

As a holistic health coach, I’ve come to know that when it comes to creating the change we desire for ourselves, cultivating Self Acceptance is the fundamental piece . Without a high level of self acceptance we will lack what it truly takes to take constructive empowered action in our lives.

The problem with Self Improvement is that it makes our self acceptance conditional . We can’t feel like we are truly okay until ......... Our efforts to better ourselves no matter how correct and sensible can feel like being on a hamster wheel. Self Acceptance is here and NOW - no conditions, no standards. It doesn't mean we're ignoring the things we would like to change, we just aren't including them in our equation of inherent worth and acceptability.

Self Acceptance doesn't makes us lazy, idle or complacent. All the research points to the fact that Self Acceptance is what actually sets the stage for growth and real change.

In this special solo show, I share some key strategies for why and how we need to make this important shift when it comes to stepping into our full personal power to create the health and wellbeing we truly desire.

Vibrational Nutrition - Discovering the Energetic Signatures of Food With Candice Covington

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

As a holistic nutritionist, natural foods chef and student of Ayurveda, I know that the food we eat is doing so much more than making us thin or fat. Food is actually more than simply fats, proteins, carbs, and calories. Food is energy and all energy carries information. The food we eat communicates vibrationally to all layers or our being: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Ancient cultures and indigenous healing traditions are grounded in this knowing - that food is medicine because it provides a sacred connection to the earth; to nature herself.

Today’s show is a beautiful invitation to bring back intuition and joy into how we view human nutrition.

My special guest today is Candice Covington, a certified aromatherapist, massage therapist, and all around healing arts master when it comes to the energetics of food and plant medicine. A former instructor at Ashmead College and former aromatherapist for the Chopra Center, Candice is the author of the critically acclaimed book, "Vibrational Nutrition, Understanding the Energetic Signature of Foods", a hands-on guide to how the food we eat affects our behaviors, emotions and spirit.

The Healing Powers of Sunlight - Richard Hobday, PhD

Thu, 22 Jul 2021 00:00:00 -0400

Ep#065 Fed up with fad diets and fake wellness? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food and self care challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

For thousands of years, humans have lived in harmony with the sun and used its heat and light as medicine. But the skin cancer awareness campaigns of the past several decades have been so successful that many people no longer appreciate all of the good things the sun can do for the mind and body—or the dangers of not getting enough sunlight.

Long before the research explosion on Vitamin D, Dr. Richard Hobday, PhD, an internationally recognized researcher, writer has been teaching and writing just how beneficial the sun truly is to our lives.

He explains how the sun acts as a natural disinfectant, killing viruses and bacteria outdoors as well as inside buildings and how sunlight therapy has been used historically to prevent and treat serious health problems like tuberculosis and other infections in the years before antibiotics were developed. He highlights the role of sunlight in regard to conditions like osteoporosis, rickets, psoriasis, heart disease, and several forms of cancer.

Dr. Hobday shares how our modern artificially lit lifestyles can throw off our biological rhythms, create stress within the body, and lead to poor sleep as well as worsening eyesight, and weakened immunity. His research findings on sunlight, immunity and infectious disease which goes back more than a decade ago are truly prescient.

Bottomline, Dr. Hobday makes a compelling case for why and how we should welcome the healing sun back into our lives, and perhaps more than ever before how humanity needs to prioritize our relationship with nature for lasting health and vitality.

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

Self Trust is what gives us the confidence and energy we need to grow, evolve our potential and live a soul directed life. What’s hard for us to trust: Our Emotions, Our Body, Our Appetite, Our Choices, Our Commitments and ultimately Our Ability To Know What’s Best for Ourselves. A life without self trust can cause us to feel quite literally weighed down by life and be at the root of resistance to change when it comes to caring for our health and wellbeing.

I share my top strategies for freeing up energy to develop self trust. In these tumultuous times, never has cultivating our ability to find a sense of security and belonging within ourselves been more critical.

Why Spirituality Needs Psychology - How To Avoid Toxic Positivity

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

Spiritual bypassing shows up in the holistic health and personal development world, the “good vibes only” groups, the "love and light" circles when spiritual development ignores psychology.

The term, spiritual bypassing was first coined during the early 1980s by Buddhist and psychotherapist , John Welwood in his book, Toward a Psychology of Awakening . It's defined as the tendency to use spiritual ideas and practices to sidestep unresolved emotional issues, psychological wounds and developmental needs.

It’s what’s happening for example when we find ourselves using meditation, yoga, bodywork, spiritual ideas - even healthy eating to avoid dealing with our unpleasant, unresolved emotional stuff.

Spiritual bypassing is a tempting defense strategy in today's complex world but it can have harmful emotional consequences and become an obstacle on the path to genuine spiritual development.

Learn how to identify it and what you can do to avoid it.

Connecting To Your Inner Divinity - Interview With Dr. Emma Farr Rawlings

Thu, 04 Feb 2021 00:00:00 -0500

#041 Fed up with diets and wellness hype? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food, weight and body image challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

In my own journey, I've to come to know the healing that comes from quieting the voice of our ego so we can hear the voice of inner wisdom, our higher self, our soul. The healing comes from having an underlying sense of well being regardless of what's going on in our circumstances and the power of intentional focus to transform our limiting beliefs. When we're inspired, having fun, and feeling a sense of wonder about life we're conncted to our divine inner being.

I spoke with Dr. Emma Farr Rawlings, author of The Divine Child - Your Soul’s Inner Voice - an awe-inspiring book that inspires us to reconnect that more subtle part of ourselves.

Growing up , Emma was close friends with a younger child (Brett) in her neighborhood. They had a special connection and often spoke of angels and God. He often told her that he knew Emma from before they were born; he knew her from the “spirit house”. Emma always felt a special connection to children and became passionate about interviewing other children in various cultures to see what they might say if asked “Where do you come from? Why are you here?

This led to her book, The Divine Child: Your Soul’s Inner Voice which invites us to re-discover the joy of our own eternal child and see the wisdom inherent in the voices of children. In doing so, Emma offers a simple yet profound formula for creating a brighter, healthier future for humanity and the planet.

Emma has master's degrees in clinical psychology and cultural anthropology as well as a PhD in Behavioral Sciences. - She has been a consultant, coach, and trusted advisor for over 35 years in the San Francisco Bay Area, as well as internationally, serving the technology and media/music industries, spiritual leaders and eco-leaders. She retired her Transpersonal Psychotherapy practice of four decades in 2014.

Your Issues Are In Your Tissues - Diving Deep Into the Body Mind

Thu, 28 Jan 2021 00:00:00 -0500

#040 Fed up with diets and wellness hype? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food, weight and body image challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

It’s a scientific fact Our ISSUES are IN OUR TISSUES.

The way that our brain and body process emotions is inextricably connected to our hormones, nervous system and our immune function.

Whether its anxiety, depression, emotional wounding, addictive behaviors, an eating disorder, body image struggles -- all our neuroses (and everybody’s got something if you are a human living on planet earth!) have roots in our physical body.

This means by using our thinking mind alone we cannot heal, navigate and grow through life’s inevitable challenges.

Yogis and those in the healing arts have long known that healing requires changing longstanding patterns in our body.

Trying to change the mind with the mind is like trying to stop a runaway train by yelling stop.

Learn what happens to our bodies when unprocessed emotions and toxic stress traps us in our minds and what you can do about it starting right now.

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

We know a heck of a lot about eating well, exercising etc.... So why is it so hard to let go of the habits that keep us stuck? Why do we say we want one thing and then go about making sure it doesn’t happen?

You might think it’s a lack of discipline, motivation or self control that causes you to self-sabotage your health goals.

But the truth is behind every problematic behavior there’s a personal payoff on a deeper level. There’s a hidden benefit, something outside of our conscious awareness, underlying the very situations that you say you want to change in your life.

What if there was a way to perceive our shortcomings and setbacks with greater understanding, more compassion and consequently find more creative and effective solutions to taking care of ourselves?

A Crisis of Authenticity - Why Being Your True Self Matters For Your Health

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

In last week’s episode I shared with you about the phenomenon of Cold Depression. In many ways the Crisis of Authenticity is a very much related topic. Because it’s this state of being alienated from ourselves that has the potential to create debilitating stress in our bodies. Living disconnected from who we truly are, who we are meant to be in this life manifests as chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, emotional reactivity, digestive imbalances and more.

There’s no shortcut to living as your authentic self - it requires a conscious commitment and genuine inner work. This awareness creates the space to shift your consciousness, release subconscious programming and explore a nurturing relationship with yourself.

Living authentically is a dynamic life long journey back to a sense of who and what you really are. It begins with with awareness. I share how the tools of self exploration, along with the technology of Kundalini Yoga and meditation became the path back home to my authentic self.

Learn why you're experiencing chronic busyness yet have a lack of fulfillment, why you feel disconnected from life, struggle with self care, have self sabotaging patterns, a prevailing sense of anxiety, or a loss of meaning in your life. It could be Cold Depression as chronicled in the Kundalini Yoga tradition as the single biggest challenge we face as we enter the Aquarian Age. Cold Depression disconnects us from our spirit, our authentic sense of self, our inner energy system. Navigating the epic change, information overload and unrelenting stress happening today is taking a significant toll on our nervous system. Instead of relying on adrenaline and external sources of energy, it's critical we learn to go within and unleash our own inner energy, which has an infinite reserve.

Getting To The Root Cause Working With A Medical Intuitive - Interview With Healer and Spiritual Counselor Jenny Israel , CPC, CECP

When difficult emotions like anger, guilt, and unworthiness go repressed and unhealed, the side effects impact our overall well-being by blocking the flow of vital energy in our life. In essence, emotional blocks are energy blocks, they’re below our level of conscious awareness. Common symptoms of emotional blocks are self sabotaging patterns, feelings of stagnation, frequent procrastination about the same issue, or repeating themes of conflict or drama in our lives.

Emotional blocks can also affect our physical well-being and show up in chronic and often debilitating symptoms such as headaches, chronic pain, digestive issues, immune challenges. Clearing emotional blocks requires healing at the root cause and since our bodies are energy systems, this means healing at the energetic level, in order to release the unhealthy bonds to past situations.

In this episode, I speak with Jenny Israel, a Medical Intuitive, Certified Energy Therapist and Spiritual Wellness Counselor. She is a Certified Life Coach and has been attuned in Reiki I, II and III and Levels 1-6 of the Seraphim Blueprint System. .Jenny started developing her intuitive and healing gifts in 2009. After dealing with her own health crisis a few years ago, she dove deeper into her healing profession. The ability to see her client's energy blocks began to strengthen and she soon realized that she was channeling information directly related to physical, emotional and mental illness.

Join me for a deep and captivating conversation about the energy body, spirituality, the role of consciousness in healing and how to understand and navigate these turbulent times through a metaphysical lens.

Building Health & Vitality With Traditional Chinese Medicine With Ellen Goldsmith M.S.O.M. L.Ac. Dip.C.H.

#034 Fed up with diets and wellness hype? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food, weight and body image challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

Chasing the latest superfood, fad diet in our pursuit of health can feel very impersonal and even dogmatic. But there’s another way to think about food when you explore a traditional “food as medicine” approach and rightfully embrace food as our natural ally in health. Today we dive into the ancient healing system of Traditional Chinese Medicine ("TCM") with a focus on two of its main components: acupuncture and nutritional healing.

This episode highlights the importance of listening to our body from a place of curiosity and cultivating our innate capacity to choose foods that support our individual health and wellbeing.

I speak with a highly regarded expert in the field of TCM, Ellen Goldsmith. For over 25 years Ellen has shared her passion for transformation through health, practicing Asian medicine and acupuncture, dietary therapy, Chinese herbs, body-mind health, and Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction programs supporting thousands of people on their path to reduced pain, stress, and regained vitality.

Ellen is co-founder of Pearl Natural Health, a naturopathic, acupuncture and Chinese medicine clinic in Portland, Oregon. She is on the faculty of the National University of Natural Medicine's College of Classical Chinese Medicine and the Helfgott School of Graduate= studies teaching Chinese dietetics as well as the Academy for Integrative Health and Medicine.

She is the author of a must have book, Nutritional Healing with Chinese Medicine: + 175 Recipes for Optimal Health, a book to help people understand and put the nourishing wisdom of Chinese medicine into everyday lives, where it matters most; the kitchen.

An Empowering Approach To Body Weight In Midlife, Menopause and Beyond - With Erica Leon, MS, RDN

Thu, 10 Dec 2020 00:00:00 -0500

#033 Fed up with diets and wellness hype? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food, weight and body image challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

Perimenopause and menopause can be a traumatic time for women. Some of us can start to feel betrayed by the body that we thought we knew so well after all these years or perhaps it’s just the perfect storm that fuels a life long struggle with body hate even more. It’s normal and natural to feel frustrated and even a little angry. But if we can remember to show ourselves – and our changing bodies – some compassion and kindness, we can feel calmer and have an easier and healthier transition during menopause.

Navigating our changing bodies as we get into midlife is distressing but it’s made worse when we cling to intentional weight loss as the only answer. To effectively address our body’s needs during this turbulent time requires patience and a gentle approach. It’s time to commit to self care practices that affirm our inherent value beyond the size and shape of our bodies.

Erica Leon is a registered dietitian and eating disorder specialist and the owner of Erica Leon Nutrition, a group nutrition practice in White Plains, NY. Erica’s work is guided by the non-diet approach to health referred to as “Intuitive Eating.” and the Health at Every Size ® approach to create a safe and nurturing environment for individuals to explore their attitudes about food, weight and body image.

In this honest and heartfelt conversation, we discuss how intuitive eating is an empowering strategy for dealing with menopausal and peri menopausal issues. We explore how the subtle and long lasting effects of diet culture are particularly damaging for those of us struggling with mid life health changes.

The Problem Is In the Culture, Not Your Body - Interview With Lindo Bacon, PhD

Thu, 03 Dec 2020 00:00:00 -0500

#032 Fed up with diets and wellness hype? Christine Okezie is on a mission to guide you to approach your food, weight and body image challenges from a genuinely "whole-istic" perspective. She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Lindo Bacon who has been a well respected researcher and professor in the fields of physiology, psychology and exercise metabolism for almost 20 years and who is widely known for transforming the discourse on weight with the body positivity movement.

They are the best selling author of paradigm shifting books: Health at Every Size: The Surprising Truth About Your Weight and the co-author of Body Respect: What Conventional Health Books Get Wrong, Leave Out, or Just Plain Fail to Understand about Weight. Both these books have helped to expand the Health at Every Size philosophy which at the core is a social justice framework that respects the diversity of body shapes and sizes, supporting equitable access to health care, and rejecting weight discrimination and stigma.

In this heartwarming conversation, we talk about Dr. Bacon's newly released book Radical Belonging - How To Survive and Thrive In An Unjust World (While Transforming It For the Better). In this authentic consciousness raising memoir, they ask us to explore the ways that power, privilege and disadvantage complicate the experience of our bodies. Dr. Bacon invites us to an elevated conversation about diet, size and weight that goes beyond the self help approach and through the lens of social justice.

Their paradigm goes right to the root cause of our body struggles by evaluating the social conditioning and culture that gives rise to all the self harming habits, compulsions that derail our health. It lightens the burden of toxic shame and self blame but it' s also beautiful all to action for building a more compassionate and equitable world.

Dr. Bacon’s book touched me deeply because it goes to the heart of our shared struggle - we all know in one way or another the pain of living a life based on not who we truly are - the pain of not feeling at home in our skin - safe in our very own bodies. The cost of being deprived of this basic sense of belonging taxes our health and wellbeing on all levels.

Self Abandonment is the destructive pattern of living that drains our life force energy and distances us from our soul. It's the pattern we need to bring awareness to if we want to heal and transform our relationship with food.

Seeing Our Body Through Our Soul - With Spiritual Teacher and Lifestyle Design Coach Elizabeth Tripp

She's passionate about you having the right tools to understand the deeper soul truths in your health challenges so you can feel empowered in your body and in your life.

Today’s show is a beautiful conversation about what it genuinely means to adopt a soul centered approach to our food, weight and body image challenges.

The paradigm we explore is fundamental in holistic health and healing. And that is: "We are not human beings striving to be Spiritual; we are already Spiritual Beings." Meaning that before we were born into this physical world, first and foremost, we are eternal Souls.

The principles of Ayurveda are based on the philosophy that all healing starts with conscious daily choices. It’s about finding routines to ignite the inner-healing power of the physical body.

I spoke with Rich LaMarita who’s been a practitioner and teacher of Ayurveda, for 35 years. He has studied with Vedic and Ayurvedic master Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and has led seminars on Ayurvedic diet, cooking, yoga and meditation throughout the U.S., and in Europe and Asia. I had the pleasure of meeting Rich, or actually Chef Rich when I was in culinary school at NYC’s Natural Gourmet Institute, where he was a chef-instructor for 25 years. Today, Chef Rich teaches at the Institute of Culinary Education teaching in their Health-Supportive Culinary Arts program.

How it offers different food guidance to support unique bodily constitutions in great contrast to diet culture and nutrition dogma. The fundamental role that self observation plays so that we can understand our own tendencies. And ultimately, how we can engage with food and our bodies in a way that feels deeply nourishing in our own life and with the life all around us.

When it comes to taking care of ourselves, prioritizing our health and well being I’ve found that the most significant obstacles are rooted in how we’re relating to ourselves, our beliefs and perceptions of who we are, in relationship to others and the world around us. I talk today with life coach Beatrice Kamau whose passion and expertise is helping people let go perfectionism, people pleasing, shame and guilt by healing inner child wounds and codependency.

We get to the origins of why we struggle with unconditional self love, make our worth dependent on external validation, overextend ourselves in relationship, or find ourselves making our emotional well being dependent on the people around us. We explore how the gift of awareness is the doorway to breaking these self harming thought patterns and learning new coping strategies to forming healthier ones so we can develop a strong sense of self.

But there is a microbiome revolution happening which is embracing a more accurate and complex model of the human body as an ecosystem where our gut microbiota - the trillions of microorganisms that live inside our digestive tract are giving us a whole new appreciation for the complex interplay of Food, Mood, Emotions, Metabolism and more.

In my interview with Dr. Emeran Mayer, professor of medicine and executive director of the UCLA Center for Neurobiology of Stress, he shares how we can harnass the power of the biological link between the mind and the digestive system to take charge of our health.
Dr. Mayer is a gastroenterologist, neuroscientist, and the author of the bestselling book, The Mind Gut Connection who has been studying this interaction for over forty years.
