  • Incredibly Insightful and Thoroughly Researched

    Recommended by a family friend, I was skeptical at first, but then I listened to a couple episodes and was quite surprised by how well presented and evidence-based everything is. The episodes on Long COVID made me rethink my own perceptions of the pandemic and our health system today

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Breathing Patterns Matter for Chronic Illness
Q: So what do you mean by functional breathing, and how is it different from typical breathwork?
Functional breathing refers to the ongoing, everyday pattern of breathing—whether through the nose, with the diaphragm expanding, and at a calm rate—rather than a scheduled, formal breathwork session. It's about how you breathe all the time to support safety in the nervous system and optimal oxygen delivery, not just during a practice.
How Unhealthy Family Dynamics Drive Complex Chronic Illness
Q: Can you give us an example?
Family constellation therapy reveals unconscious dynamics that have impacted a person's life, helping them understand their emotional entanglements and triggers related to chronic illness.
How Unhealthy Family Dynamics Drive Complex Chronic Illness
Q: Can you start by explaining to our people listening today, what is family constellation therapy?
Family constellation therapy is a fascinating modality that uncovers hidden emotional dynamics affecting our health, developed from a combination of indigenous practices and modern therapy.
Chronic Fatigue (ME/CFS), Blood Volume, & Excessive Thirst
Q: How did you unpack the physiology a little bit deeper?
I connected various symptoms to understand that low blood volume in ME/CFS is caused by hormonal suppression and leads to increased thirst.
Microplastics: Hidden Toxins Impacting Your Health
Q: How can patients test for microplastics?
Testing for microplastics in blood rather than urine is vital, as most research correlates microplastic presence with tissue and blood rather than urine samples.
