Is it possible to have HPA axis abnormalities or low cortisol or low morning cortisol or dysregulated cortisol? Absolutely, that is a real thing but it is fundamentally wrong to claim that adrenal fatigue is the cause or the primary cause or even a common cause of fatigue. It's also fundamentally wrong to claim that adrenal fatigue, the chronic stress leading to low cortisol levels is a real thing - that is also incorrect. You can be exposed to chronic stressors like work or financial stress and...

There are 3 Pillars to what I personally believe will shift someone's life and what I stand for which are Consciousness, Creativity, and Community. Consciousness brings you to the awareness of new ideas, ways of thinking, and ways of being. Consciousness makes us aware of the choices that are available to us. Creativity is the thing that isn't attached to the result. Creativity is the purest expression of your soul. It is the most healing frequency that you can bring through your body. It's your...

When you look at immunity, you're looking at wellness. Immunity is about peak optimal performance; that your needs are met, you're not stressed or anxious, and you're able to focus. I think animal wellness supports that in terms of providing optimally nutrient dense food and with minimal inflammation. Our immune system is compromised when we're inflamed and inflammation comes primarily from junk that's in our food. Eating whole, high nutrient dense, and anti-inflammatory foods is so important fo...

There's a lot of talk that we need to collectively raise the vibration but it's not done like that. We don't collectively do anything. Transurfing is about accountability for yourself and your actions. 'Tuning into the collective' is a nice way of saying and adhering to a script. External scripts written by others don't really benefit a lot of people. Reality Transurfing you remove yourself from the script, wake up as an individual, and follow a script that is best suited for you, your intention...

More than anything, the plant medicine industry needs to hear a message of responsibility. They need to understand the true power of what they're engaging with and they need to understand that these plant medicines are not just medicines if you administer them. You're not taking on a glorified role of a bartender prescribing a tea or some kind of plant elixir to somebody. These are unbelievably serious and profound plants that have literally shaped human consciousness over thousands of years and...

I wrote Fast This Way to explain both the spiritual as well as physical side of fasting but what people get wrong is that they will try to use the spiritual practice of fasting in the middle of a work day. There's such a thing as a working fast which you do for more energy, high performance, and anti-aging and then there's something called a spiritual fast which is something that you do for spiritual development and they're just fundamentally different. Until you do a longer fast with rest, rela...

One pragmatic practice is to separate out the worry from the thinking. Fear plus uncertainty equals anxiety but uncertainty can also move us into a growth mindset. When there's a lot of uncertainty and we're really feeling down on our luck or really stressed out because of our finances; in those moments when we're really worried, take a deep breath, step back and ask yourself if this worrying is helping? Because worrying makes our thinking brain go offline. What do we need to help us move forwar...

We are not our ruptures. We are the loving awareness that the rupture is existing within and when we can tap into our spacious awareness and view the rupture through our loving hearts, it transcends it, it shifts it, it helps it amalgamate, and move the timeline from this rupture that's three years old that's angry at the world into this adult who knows better. - Samantha Skelly Wellness Force Radio Episode 387 Creator of Pause Breathwork , Host of The Sam Skelly Show , and Founder of Hungry for...

To me, an actual broken heart is a closed heart. An actual broken heart is one that isn't willing to open up again; it is protective, guarded, and walled which can be important for the healing aspect. If you don't have boundaries, if you've been walked on, if you've experienced trauma abuse, there actually is an important boundary that is the complete individualization of self that doesn't allow in anything as you repair. Then you build up some level of confidence, a relationship with self, and ...

Apollo Neuro uses sound waves that are composed for the touch receptors of our skin rather than for our ears. There's a component of music that's in the lower frequency range that is somewhere between 10 and 200 hertz which is about what comes out of your subwoofer that is more easily felt through our skin than heard through our ears. There are certain patterns of sound that when delivered to the skin, you can relatively reliably nudge the body and the mind into sync, flow, and goal states more ...

The whole secret sauce of Farmer's Footprint is going to be to tell the narrative of healing at every level. We cannot extract the human health story from the planetary story anymore. It's so intermixed; you literally cannot create human health if we don't solve these agricultural systemic issues. In the same way, we can't solve the agricultural problems unless we come to understand the value of human life and start to reallocate the valuation of food correctly. It's really a failure to understa...

"A study on low-income families showed that just the simple act of eating together with your children for just four meals a week, and it could've been any meal, dramatically protected kids against obesity and disordered eating. These are protective measures that were stimulated and created simply by eating together as a family. Things like this are not being talked about enough in the conversation of food, calorie management, and trying to be healthy. Acts like this are what really make it all s...

When I say, 'Do your inner work,' it's in real life and real-time but it's also taking responsibility for your sovereignty. Have a disciplined breath practice in the morning or maybe have a reflective practice at the end of the day to sit with yourself for ten minutes in stillness and silence to think about it. Ask yourself, 'What could I have done better?', 'Could I have treated people differently?', 'How did I speak to myself today?', and pause so that the likelihood of that playing out in rea...

I'm on a mission to disrupt the fitness industry by leading with empathy first and a better understanding on the mental and emotional side so that people don't view physical transformation as this chore, this punishment that they have to go through because society accepts this belief or this myth that you have to look a certain way to be loved. My hope is that people will wake up and I feel like we can do that by leading with empathy first but empathy with boundaries. - Drew Manning Get 15% off ...

Choosing a Creator Consciousness allows you to begin to see how our society is so built around a consumer society; we have just been conditioned for this behavior. Whether it's pharmaceutical drugs for any problem that you have in your body; we're conditioned to not listen to our bodies and just take these pills. Drugs, alcohol; you name it. Right now it's everybody with their smartphones; they're so addictive. Every time we give away our attention to these things, these distractions - we're act...

All cattle are grass-fed and spend about 80% of their life on pasture eating forage and grass which is their species-specific diet and helps maximize the nutritional profile of the meat. But then probably 98 to 99% of the cattle are then sent to a feedlot during the last few months of their lives where they're fed predominantly nothing but genetically modified corn and soy. So, the label, ‘grass-fed' isn't lying to you because the cattle are grass-fed but then they leave out the part where it ha...

When you look at movement via energy centers in the body, you're not only utilizing it to create awareness but also breath, pumping, and to get stagnant energy to move. When we're sitting down all day, especially if your posture is poor, you're physically and emotionally going to be more likely to be stagnant. Any exercise is medicine and with more or less good technique, there's really no bad exercise; there's only wrongly prescribed exercise. If you understand some movement principles, any mov...

When your intuition is actually at odds with or goes against your current belief system, that's a really great checkpoint. Intuition should be completely free and removed from any of your beliefs, patterns, and perception of what you're even seeing. Instinct is more aligned with that emotional response with survival. Going with your gut is that survival instinct. Instinct, to me, has a much more specific architecture than intuition which doesn't really follow any set structure. - Bizzie Gold Get...

"Soulmates are a problematic concept. You have to lower your expectations a little bit because society has given us all these expectations of what the perfect partner is like which are impossible for anyone to meet. It's better to find someone that you can both grow into soulmates over time and look at them from that perspective. Search for someone that you can finally be yourself around without any fear, retribution, or shame. Someone who celebrates who you are is going to want to be with you a...

When I think of technology for sleep, I think in two dimensions. In one dimension you have your phone with emails coming in, Slack messages, text messages, Whatsapp and so on that can give you anxiety. That type of technology is bad because it keeps your mind racing when you really just have to slow down. Our technology at Eight Sleep has a different concept; you don't see it - it's just there embedded in the bed and it does the work for you as it enhances your sleep without anxiety. We've just ...

I still think about the same questions from when I was young, 'What are humans capable of? What am I capable of?' I've had so many people on my podcast that have cured themselves of cancer even though most people say that it's impossible. When we look through the lens of the weakest link compared to thinking about human potential, it takes us down a level collectively. We have to continue to progress by trying new things and pushing the envelope; if we don't do that, then we're not expanding and...

What God is is beyond our small human mind's capacity really to grapple with and until you get pushed so deeply into yourself, usually by pain, that you have to get into regions of the unconscious or the superconscious or the soul which is really the self-sense of all of it. In other words, in the soul, there is no division between the unconscious, subconscious, and superconscious. The higher self is the superconscious part of the soul. The subconscious is the wisdom of the DNA and the cells tha...

God is a sphere who circumferences nowhere that goes infinitely forever and a center whose location is everywhere. So, if God is a sphere who circumferences nowhere and centers everywhere and you know you are a center, then no matter what you put out in the world has to come back to you because you're the center of the universe. You are a point of consciousness with self-reference. Without you, there is no universe. There is no you or me. There is no day, no night, no life, no anything. You are ...

Rumi says, 'No man can get to God until he becomes a heretic,' which means that you will never find God in pages with words written on them. If you want to find out what actually God is then you have to do what's necessary to create the environment that's supportive of that.
