Emotions and health with Dr Eva Selhub

Boy oh boy, am I excited to bring you this interview. I met Dr. Eva in Boston during my Mastermind and had so many aha moments listening to her speak. I have been knee deep in these conversations and experiences around emotions and their direct impact on health and she explained sooo much I have been thinking about. If you struggle with any kind of trauma, dis-ease in the body or anxiety and panic, this podcast is for you. Here's what we covered: How she came to bridge western and eastern medicine together when she got poked with a needle from an AIDS patient. How our emotions and thoughts determine the health of our body We talk about her book, The Love Response, and she explains how we can reverse trauma and negative experiences and heal ourselves. What Forrest bathing is and why you should do it. So many people ask why this is important if you are fit and well and no apparent dis-ease or pain in the body. It's because I am learning that our subconscious learns to suppress so much that we are not even aware how this may be affecting us. This conversation is a total game changer.

Difference between acupuncture and homeopathy and reiki. How everything is connected: our environment, our food, our emotions and our energy. Her big new adventure that you will want to know about. Absolutely amazing and mind-blowing conversation worth tuning in.

Interview with the witch: Portia Richardson

This is one of the most intriguing interviews I have ever done. I am so excited to share with you Portia Richardson, a self proclaimed witch, teacher and a healer. This will be useful if you feel triggered by things or people....she explains the reason so beautifully. In our conversation, she also addresses trauma, healing crisis, and why we all feel a sense of chaos all around us. We also discuss racism, feminism, ancestors, why we have to “feel it to heal it”…..Lastly, we discuss how to honor our bodies and listen to what they are telling us versus punishing them.

The danger behind fitting in

Someone recently set me on fire by saying that I should make sure my kids fit into the American society by going out my way to provide cultural experiences because their parents are immigrant and God forbid they stood out. I think this is how we create cages for our kids and ourselves and it's a danger to society and I explain why.

80/20 formula

As I develop personally and work with others, I am tapping into something rather magical and during a very early morning meditation, it came to me as 80/20 formula and I wanted to share it with you.
