  • The dark side of glp episode ❤️❤️

    This episode makes me feel seen for the first time. Thank you so much for being so open and honest I felt like you were talking about me and sharing how I feel. It was as if you were inside my head and explaining exactly what I deal with every second of everyday. I have just never been able to articulate how my body and brain works. Again thank you for what you are doing.

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Quick Hits: How This Magic Mat is Revolutionizing Stress Relief, Sleep, and Healing - The PEMF Breakthrough
Q: What is Schumann Resonance and how is it that the different frequencies? So are these frequencies there? When you go up in frequency, is this a stronger frequency or is it like rapid, more fast, like a faster frequency?
The guests explain that the mat uses pulses of electromagnetic energy, including a setting at 1.2 pulses per second and one at 7.83 pulses per second. They say raising the setting does not increase magnetic intensity, and describe Schumann resonance as Earth's electromagnetic resonance associated with lightning and the ionosphere.

Doing Everything Right But Still Feel Awful? This May Be Why with Dr. Meg Mill
Q: Can you walk us just a little bit through each of the steps?
Mill recommends identifying recurring thoughts and core beliefs, noticing how they feel in the body, questioning whether they are true, clearing the thought, choosing a believable replacement, and using a longer exhale to help regulate the nervous system.
Doing Everything Right But Still Feel Awful? This May Be Why with Dr. Meg Mill
Q: You've got the woman who she is doing everything right. You know, she's replacing the hormones, she's lifting heavy, she's eating properly. Yet she still doesn't feel good. So what is this missing piece that we need to start looking at?
Mill says repeated thought patterns and the nervous system can influence the body's physiological responses. She recommends addressing these upstream signals alongside diet, hormones, digestion, and other functional health measures.
Quick Hits: Why Belly Fat Shows Up in Midlife and Why Dieting Harder Can Backfire for You
Q: Don't you guys find that?
