Episode 14: Discover How to Use Your Brain for Optimal Functioning with Liam Naden

Welcome to "Your Lifestyle Is Your Medicine" This is the podcast that explores how a person's lifestyle can be the key to their health and happiness. We all strive to achieve happiness, but do we really know what happiness is? Everybody defines happiness: as success, wealth, knowledge, pair recognition, etc. However, not everybody knows that we are biologically wired to thrive and survive, just as every living thing on this planet does through homeostasis. In this episode, Liam Naden, a researcher, author, podcaster, and speaker, shares his journey of discovering how to use really find happiness with the most effective "machinery" we have access to since we were born... OUR BRAINS. Liam Naden studied spirituality, psychology, and personal development but was unhappy and not achieving his desired success. He was consumed with the question of how he could be the best he could be. After becoming wealthy, he suddenly lost everything and was left homeless, living on his mother's couch. He then spent time in nature and realized that life's purpose was to strive to be the best it could be. He discovered that this was done using the full potential of the brain, a machine whose sole purpose is to ensure it has the greatest chance of survival by being the best it can be. Liam has developed Neuro State Rebalancing, a method to help people use their brains correctly to eliminate fear and live more creatively. Join us to learn the purpose of life according to biological science and how the brain works to help us achieve it.

Episode 13: Rebellious wellness over 50 with Gregory Anne Cox

Welcome to "Your Lifestyle Is Your Medicine" This is the podcast that explores how a person's lifestyle can be the key to their health and happiness. Can we create health after 50? My guest this week, Gregory Anne Cox, talks about the importance of mindset in our question about health and wellness. She addresses the importance of finding what works for each individual and doesn't let the values and beliefs of others determine your actions and how you feel about yourself. Greg is a Certified Life Coach, Weight Loss Coach and has a Certificate in Nutrition. She shares with us how she specializes in women, particularly between 50 and 70, who are potentially on a downward projection in their health. And then reverses that to put them at an upward point into their healthy lifespan; they can add those quality years to their life. She takes a rebellious approach to aging by staying well, looking and feeling great, and avoiding prescription-pad medicine. Join us to "Get the healthy habits in and the other ones out, and you're off to the races."

Episode 12: The Benefits of Functional Medicine with Dr. Shane Steadman

Welcome to "Your Lifestyle Is Your Medicine" This is the podcast that explores how a person's lifestyle can be the key to their health and happiness. Functional medicine is a term that is largely unfamiliar to the general public, although it was how doctors used to treat patients in the past. Functional medicine can be difficult to define, so comparing it to allopathic medicine can give us a broad understanding of this approach. In conventional medicine, doctors diagnose a disease and then match it to a specific treatment. This approach works well when someone is diagnosed with an acute healthcare problem such as a heart attack, infection, or trauma like a spinal cord injury. However, this type of medical intervention can fall short of what is required for many chronic conditions, including high blood pressure, digestive issues, or neurological problems. Functional medicine explores why someone has developed a particular disease, perhaps by looking at their lifestyle, diet, or family history. This in-depth investigation suggests potential changes, such as switching to a certain diet, that could improve the patient's condition. Personalized care is becoming increasingly prevalent in healthcare environments. The functional model aims to understand the individual’s physiological, biological, emotional, and cognitive makeup to determine the best way to achieve optimal health. This is what our guest Dr. Shane Steadman does in his practice being a chiropractic neurologist and a chiropractic nutritionist. In today's episode, he explains how a functional medicine practitioner treats patients; with 20 years of experience, he looks at all of these different systems in the body, how they integrate, and what we can do to improve the person's health. We also discuss what's most important in the hierarchy of exercise, health, nutrition, stress management, relationships, and avoiding toxic substances. Join us to learn why sleep, exercise, and nutrition are the foundations of health.

Episode 11: The PABR method: Pain relief through breathing with Dr. Amy Novotny

Welcome to "Your Lifestyle Is Your Medicine" This is the podcast that explores how a person's lifestyle can be the key to their health and happiness. The nervous system is the body’s command center. Originating from the brain, it controls movements, thoughts, and automatic responses to the world around us. It also controls other body systems and processes, such as digestion, breathing, sleep, healing, stress response, and aging. Thousands of disorders and conditions can affect this complex system. An injured nerve has trouble sending a message. Sometimes it’s so damaged that it can’t send or receive a message. Nerve injury can cause numbness, inflammation, and pain. Then, if the nervous system is affected by a chronic illness, is it possible to reverse the degenerative process by resetting our nervous system? In today's episode, Dr. Amy Novotny, a breathwork specialist, explains how rewiring the nervous system with position, posture, and breathing techniques to get people out of pain, eliminate stress, anxiety, and sleep issues, avoid surgery, and get off medications. Her unique approach comes from her experience treating in various settings and with a wide range of patient populations over the past 12 years. Her background in orthopedics, sports, geriatrics, balance disorders, nerve injuries, and most recently, chronic pain, and influences from coursework at the Postural Restoration Institute gave her the foundation to develop the PABR method, which stands for pain, awareness, breathing, and relief. This is a holistic approach to restoring the body to its full potential using the body’s nervous system. It is a step-by-step process to change how the body feels and moves. Join us to learn how breathwork can take your nervous system from fight and flight to relaxation mode.
