EMB #562: 33 Random Thoughts

Today we've got a different kind of format. I always like to throw things at the wall to see what sticks. I also like to switch things up, not only for my benefit, because I don't like things to be stagnant, but for yours as well that we do something completely different. This show is a bunch of little snippets, so if you guys aren't quite familiar with us on social media, that's what we do. We're all over social media. We do lives, we do reels, we do stories, we do posts, and we've been doing t...

EMB #561: Exploiting Children on Social Media

I appreciate you going to hang out with me as I talk about a very different subject. I feel like I'm talking about different subjects for quite some time now, when I say nothing less than conventional thinking, that's what the show is all about, Exploring Mind and Body. I'm talking about kids sharing pictures on social media, possibly exposing your kids and your children. I know a lot of you are going agree with this, but people don't go with most of what I say. So what's the difference? https:/...

EMB #560: Why I Choose Not to Support Tim Hortons

So recently, I made a bold statement. I stood up on my reel and said, You know what? I don't support Tim Hortons. We were going to a coffee shop and I had a friend that said, Hey, let's go to Starbucks. I'm like, I don't want to go to Starbucks. I don't really want to pay $8 for a coffee. I don't really like coffee to begin with, or to pay six bucks for a tea and I can't even pronounce their words. So I was like, man, I don't really want to go to Starbucks. And then then he's like, Well, let's g...

EMB #559: Why Personal Training Doesn’t Work

Today I'm talking about an interesting industry. I'm talking about personal training. And I got the idea because I threw up a reel on social media and I had some interesting conversations. I like to have these conversations just to see what people think and a lot of people haven't really thought about it. But the fact of the matter is that personal training is a failing industry. And I give reasons why and we'll talk about it throughout the show. But some people were offended, of course, and som...

EMB #558: Healing Through Hypnosis

We’re got another new show coming at you this week and we’re talking about hypnosis. We’re changing this show up just a bit, and combing two guest interviews from Dr. Anbar and Mandy Barbee.

EMB #557: Electric Cars

Today's show is all about the giant controversy of electric cars. Is this something that we should even be talking about? Yes, it is. Because we got to raise awareness around what's going on in the world today and how there is so much segregation. We got to come together. We have to stop the madness. It is absolutely bonkers how over the last couple of years, I censor most of my words on social media because they shadow ban everything if you bring up the word COVID. But it's the last couple COVI...

EMB #556: Adventures of a First Time Beekeeper

Today I'm talking about the adventures of a first time beekeeper. And guess who that beekeeper is? It's me. I always wanted bees, and I don't even know why. But this year I took the leap and started my own bee hive. I was going to say beekeeping business... Not really. It's just a hobby. But I got my own bees. There's a whole lot to do with getting honey. I always wanted my own honey, and I wanted my own bees. And I made that happen this year. And I'm getting through it. I feel like the more you...

EMB #554: Easy Times Create Weak People

Today, I want to talk about a controversial subject that could be rubbing people the wrong way. I don't exactly shy away from controversy. But in this regard, I feel like there are so many things going on in this world and that are based around easy times. And I know that's going to be a difficult statement for a lot of people to hear, but there's been so many easy times in this world. It's been so easy for so long, and I feel like that it is what created so much animosity towards everything. So...

Today I'm going to talk about lower back pain. I'm so excited that I've finally sat down to develop a lower back/chronic pain program. This is going to be 100% online. I'm going to tell you all about it. What's the situation I'm in, what happened to me. You can actually go back and listen to show number 520: Healing Chronic Pain. But I know this is a big subject. A lot of people deal with this. And I finally sat down and did videos and it's a module format. But don't worry, we're going to get in...

EMB #552: No Park Workouts Please

Kids should climb trees, they should get dirty, they should be outside. They should be encouraged to be active. It's absolutely mind boggling to me that anyone feels that they have the right to come up to you and tell you that you shouldn't be doing something like that and kids shouldn't be climbing trees. https://youtube.com/shorts/T4qx-NmNOSk

EMB #551: Let’s Talk About Our Energizing Green Detox Smoothie!

Our green smoothie is very different from a conventional green smoothie or fruit smoothie with greens in it. Different purposes, different reasons. Every one of our smoothies have a different purpose. So a lot of people think that a green smoothie is just the smoothie that is green. But a fruit smoothie that is green is way different than this vegetable smoothie, green smoothie that we got going on. If you haven't seen the recipe, you should pull it up:trueformlife.com/green-detox-smoothie So if...

EMB #549: 3 Oils to Avoid

I'm going to be talking about the oils you should be avoiding. And it's a deep subject. It's complicated. People get angry and frustrated because they feel like they've been lied to. It's a whole thing. But I'm going to try to raise some awareness around that for you.

EMB #548: The Dangers of Sun Burns

I don't think many of us understand the dangers of sun burns. In fact it almost seems like people are proud of burnt skin or proud of their sun burns when they post them on social media. I think it's worth noting that, there are many dangers associated with sun burns especially the long term detriment to our health. https://youtube.com/shorts/xcZM6XQhLT0

EMB #547: How to Avoid Summer Weight Gain

Today we're going to talk about how to avoid summer weight gain. We have more people gain more weight over the summer than they do during the holidays, which is crazy. Most people don't know that. Think that the summer guy works so hard to get a beach body or get in better shape, and then think that weight is not going to accumulate throughout the summer. So it's real. And that's going to be our topic today. So when it comes to summer weight gain, we are going to jump in and tell you the one of ...

EMB #546: Why You Should Not Weigh Yourself

Today we're talking about why you should not weigh yourself. One time one of our topics was You Should Burn your Scale. Why? Because the thing is, we get obsessed with things like scales. And it's not a proper way to measure success. It's not an accurate way to measure success. We were thinking about the scale and how we let the scale control how we feel about ourselves. And we are always taught to do it too. And we're always taught to let go of those people in our lives that don't make us feel ...

EMB #545: How to Deal with Seasonal Allergies

Today we are talking about seasonal allergies. I got to tell you, they are here to stay. It's like when they get here, they don't go anywhere. So I'm going to talk about some of the things that you can do to avoid seasonal allergies, prevent seasonal allergies. When you talk about allergies, most people that we deal with naturally think of food allergies. So I used to think that all the time. I was like, ‘Why do people always say seasonal allergy, isn't just allergies?’ Because I don't really ha...

EMB #544: Are your Excuses Stronger than your Solutions?

Today we are going to talk about how our brains are conditioned. I think sometimes we don't realize that we are conditioned one way or the other, so that's going to be a good topic. So when it comes to conditioning your mind, I think a lot of times we don't realize that your brain is actually conditioned for different things, and so the easiest one is conditioned for success or failure. Many times our brains are conditioned for happiness or sadness. You walk around upset, angry, depressed. That'...

EMB #543: How to Get your Best Sleep Ever!

Getting a restful night sleep (or lack there of) is a huge issue with many of us today. So much so, that many people don’t actually know what it feels like to feel refreshed and alive when waking up in the morning. I’m not sure too many people put the connection together that toxins that cause stress on our bodies is preventing us from getting a restful night sleep. The first thing we want to do is stop putting so many toxins in our body. We need to start paying attention every ingredient we’re ...

EMB #542: How to Create Your Own Meal Plans

Today we're talking about meal planning. When you create meal plans, you reduce a whole lot of stress in your life and it's like anything that you find in your life. So usually we have schedules. I put up a post on the True Form page and I asked if you're a paper planner or an electronic planner. And most people said that paper is way easier. So I'm always trying to get ahead of the times and trying to go electronic. It's so challenging. I do like the reminders, but I think there's a lot to actu...

EMB #539: Let’s talk about listening to your body!

I wanted to talk about listening to your body, as most of you probably know or have guessed, that we often talk about things that we're going through in life. So that's why a lot of times when we're doing something with the Fitness Family, if we get a lot of questions about something in particular, that means a lot of people are going through whatever issue it is. So I thought, why not talk about listening to your body? It's an important subject and I feel like more of us can listen to our body....

EMB #538: Let’s Talk About Sugar Cravings!

Let's talk about cravings! They come when our bodies are missing something in our diet. If you are cutting something out like refined sugar, cravings are very normal. You can handle the cravings by replacing what it wants with something healthy. For example, when you crave sugar you could have something with a natural sugar like an apple or orange, have some healthy baking (granola bar, muffins, cookies etc.) make tea with honey in it or take your mind off the situation completely and go for a w...

EMB #536: The Importance of Snacking

What to eat? A good thing to have in your pantry is a snack basket or a snack bin. And you can have granola bars in there, trail mix in there, all ready to grab and go. And have your fruit in the fridge already washed. So you just grab it and go. You can have mixed veggies already chopped up and even in little containers if you can. And then again you just grab and go. I think it all comes back to: If we're not prepared, then it's probably not going to happen. It's very difficult to live a healt...

EMB #535: Compassion, Kindness and Understanding

I want to talk about kindness, I just think it's a topic that could be talked about a bit more often and could be more addressed. A lot of people are stressed out and have challenges dealing with emotions. And that's what's most important to practice: caring, empathy, love, kindness. But that's also the hardest to do. And here's the thing, it's like when it's the holidays, right? So at Christmas, you have family stress. You have finances, presents, sometimes traveling, and that is the most stres...

EMB #534: What it’s Like to be on a Movie Set

Today I'm going to talk about being on a movie set, and it was actually pretty cool. So what happened was they tell you at the very last minute and I don't know if that's because they're so busy or because of privacy reasons. But we actually applied to go to the one that they were filming in Didsbury. All they said was, we are looking for extras, send in pictures, which is a bit odd because I feel like they're just looking for bodies like, I don't think it matters what you look like, although it...

It's the little things that we have to get excited about, because there's so much stress right now, so many people are in limbo. I feel like we have to find things to look forward to. We have to find things to get excited about and it doesn't matter what it is like, it could be the sun's coming out a bit earlier or the Sun staying up a bit later. Whatever it is, we have to go and we have to find that positivity. And I got a little secret that I'm going to share with you. It's not really a secret...

They want something very specific or they're not going to do it. There's only so much you can do for your business. How banks are basically stealing from you and how they charge hidden fees, even when they advertise a zero-fee product.
