Grief is one of the heart’s natural responses to loss. By our willingness to mourn, we are able to acknowledge, integrate, and accept the truth of our losses. This allows us to feel the truth of our pain. The heart has its own rhythms. It will open in its own time, little by little. In a culture that has forgotten how to grieve, we can heal by honoring our pain instead of succumbing to the urge to “get over it.” About the Commune Courses Podcast Commune creates video courses with world-renowned ...

As human beings, we are constantly at war to escape. To escape from fear, pain, or the circumstances we can’t control. But instead of escaping, we create immeasurable suffering for ourselves.

Today, Dr. Mark Hyman introduces you to a revolutionary approach to health called Functional Medicine, and how you can have a healthier doctor-patient relationship. Functional Medicine is the future of conventional medicine–available now. It seeks to identify and address the root causes of disease, and views the body as one integrated system, not a collection of independent organs divided up by medical specialties. It treats the whole system, not just the symptoms. About the Commune Courses Podc...

Today Dr Hyman begins with a discussion of reference ranges, and how what medicine considers as “normal” may not be optimal for your health. Next, we apply this knowledge to the most basic medical measurements—your vital signs. Everybody knows that when you go to the doctor, the first thing you do is you get your vitals taken by the nurse: your blood pressure, your weight, your heart rate, your temperature, etc. But does your doctor tell you what these numbers mean? Do they just mean you're not ...

Every single chemical reaction in our body needs enzymes, and every single reaction needs a coenzyme, or helper. Guess what coenzymes are? They're vitamins and minerals. This is why a diet that's rich in whole foods is essential to health. Calories are abundant in our life, but the majority of Americans are deficient in one or more vitamins or minerals at the minimum amount to prevent a deficiency disease. How do you know if you're one of the 90% that's lacking in something essential? Today’s le...

When our hormones are out of balance, our energy levels, our zest for life, and our moods go haywire. The main hormones we address in this video are sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen, progesterone, LH, FSH), thyroid hormones, and adrenal hormones (like cortisol). We also have to balance our insulin, but that is covered elsewhere in the course. Remember that if you have abnormal lab tests that point to low testosterone or PCOS, for example, the story should not end there. You don't want to tak...

For too long our cardiovascular treatments have been overly broad, incomplete, reactionary and ineffective. Instead of a proactive lifestyle change, we wait until crisis sets in and hope that a statin or some other miracle drug will fix us. This is hardly effective and a far cry from “Functional Medicine.” Today we learn which tests you should be pursuing for a total view of your heart health and how to synthesize those results systemically.

Welcome to A Return to Wholeness with Dr. Gabor Maté. In this introduction to the program, Dr. Maté explains that trauma is not the event that caused the psychological wound; it is the wound itself. Like a wound, that aspect of yourself might be incredibly sensitive when touched — or it may be scarred and thus is a place where you can be rigid and withdrawn. But the good news is that wounds, no matter how old, can heal in the present. About the Commune Courses Podcast Commune creates video cours...

This session explores what is true human nature — and how the modern world has warped our understanding of our needs. Dr. Maté begins by explaining that as humans, we need interconnection: We rely on others to survive, especially as children. Yet, we also strive for authenticity. This creates an inherent tension that, if not managed well, can cause problems.
