212: Food Heals Q&A With Gorgeously Green’s Sophie Uliano and Sexy Fit Vegan Ella Magers

Ella Magers and Sophie Uliano

We’ve got some serious blonde power in the recording studio today! We’re asking two top health & wellness experts your burning health questions, and getting some amazing answers in return…

 

Sophie Uliano is a nutritionist, green beauty expert, and best-selling author of the Gorgeously Green series of books. She runs retreats and events that empower women to transform from the inside out and be the healthiest they can be. This blonde bombshell taught Julia Roberts and Oprah how to go green BEFORE green was even cool. Check out previous episodes 178, 185 and 200 for Sophie’s story and more gorgeously green lifestyle tips.

 

Ella Magers was named one of Shape Magazine’s Top 50 Hottest Trainers in America, and we testify that she’s really hot – and vegan. She’s the author of Six Weeks to Sexy Abs, a book that will transform how you exercise for good. Vegan for 23 years, Ella runs online coaching programs helping people make the transition to a plant-based diet and healthy lifestyle. Check out episodes 97, 169 and 170 for Ella’s story.

 

Here’s a few starter questions to give you a “taste” of what our two experts have for us on today’s episode:

 

1: How much exercise do we really need?

The latest scientific research says the optimum amount of exercise is 60 minutes a day. Sounds like a lot, but you don’t have to do it all in one go: break it up. If you’re busy, do 10 minutes of kettlebell in the morning, throw in a bit of high speed walking at lunchtime, and a spot of yoga in the afternoon. Simply being active in your day to day adds up when it comes to fitness. Even such mundane but active chores as tidying up the house can help you work up a sweat.

 

Consider your goals. If you’re focusing on long term health, lower impact exercise is a good choice. If you’re looking for fast results, go for high-intensity workouts. Ultimately, it’s about finding a balance between low and high impact activities that’s right for you.

 

2: Is it really okay for me to have that glass of wine every day?

Be plant-powered, eat your greens, and enjoy that glass of wine guilt-free. Firstly, wine comes packed with antioxidants. In moderation, it’s practically a health food (check out Dr. Cabral’s episode where he shares the secrets to drinking healthily). When you deny yourself something you love, you end up compensating by binging on something else. It’s more important to listen to your body. Definitely don’t feel guilty, because guilt changes the molecular structure of our bodies. So pour yourself that glass of wine, and enjoy every sip.

 

3: What’s the deal with SPF cream? Is the sun giving us skin cancer or is it good for us? What are you best recommendations for healthy sunscreen?

The sun is not the devil. In fact, vitamin D is vital and you should get between 2000-5000 IU every day. 

A little bit of sunshine is okay (although definitely avoid the baby oil and the aluminum foil), but you need to be cautious and protect yourself from harmful rays. Our top tips:

  • Cover up! Wear a hat and non-toxic sunblock. You can make your own by mixing coconut oil and zinc oxide.
  • Avoid conventional sunscreens, because they’re packed with hormone-disrupting chemicals and are never as effective as advertised
  • Think about your diet. The more toxic you are, the more you’ll burn.

 

4: Colonics and enemas. Hype or healing tools?

There’s a ton of conflicting information out there. Some say it’s lifesaving, others say it might kill you. The truth, like with most things, lies somewhere in between. As a short-term fix or to kickstart your healing journey, they can work miracles. In fact, many Food Heals guests have had positive experiences with them. But some say washing away your microbiome is a bad idea, and colonics shouldn’t be relied upon long-term.

 

If you eat clean and you’re healthy, you don’t necessarily need colonics because you’re giving your digestive system everything it needs to function and support a healthy gut. The body is clever (it naturally detoxifies), and we can assist it in a gentle way by eating certain herbs and vegetables, like cilantro, milk thistle and leafy greens.

 

5: What are the best green products for hair?

  • Evolve H do a great starter kit for hair. Totally green non-toxic hair care.
  • Bogavia do a delicious shampoo, conditioner and serum that really deliver.
  • EO Products shampoos and conditioners are gluten-free, organic, and infused with essential oils that help your hair grow.

 

6: How do you kick a Starbucks addiction?

If you’re trying to kick the coffee habit, substitute in a matcha tea shot instead. It will really energize you without giving you the jitters. Or give Hiball a try for a natural lift.

 

If it’s the take-out coffee habit you’re trying to drop, then look at it from an economic, health, and environment perspective. You can buy really good organic ethical tea or coffee, organic plant milk with no nasties added, make it at home and take it with you in a reusable cup… not only do you save money, but you avoid chemical-packed non-organic coffee and sugary milks (saving your health), and don’t contribute to the mountain of plasticized coffee cups polluting the oceans (saving the planet). When it comes to coffee with benefits, you can’t go wrong with Foursigmatic, instant coffee infused with medicinal mushrooms.

 

7: What are your thoughts on drinking aloe vera gel?

Aloe vera can be good for food poisoning because it flushes you out and lets the intestinal tract heal. However, you need to use it with caution, because it can be too powerful for those with certain sensitivities. It’s most delicious in small amounts. Try mixing it with lemon and mint for a healthy healing lemonade.  

 

8: What are some tips to move out of food addiction?

The first thing to acknowledge is that food is just a symptom of disordered eating. The cause is always deeper than you at first think. So switching to veganism or vegetarianism doesn’t automatically cure food addiction. You need to begin by exploring what sits behind those behaviors.

 

What are the thoughts and beliefs fueling your eating patterns?

 

Ultimately, when we reconnect to self-love, and are mindful of what is driving us to crave another serving of ice-cream (vegan or not), we can step out of disordered eating and into a healthy relationship with food.

211: Sisterhood, Gelato and Wine – Let Us Take You On Our Vegan Italian Getaway!

Food Heals Italy

When Ali first imagined reaching Italy, she thought “Cool, I’m going to drink wine and eat olives.”

 

But it ended up being SO MUCH MORE than that. Not only did we experience a real immersion into Italian culture, with all its mind-blowing food, breathtaking scenery and relaxed pace of life, but we created sisterhood bonds that will surely last a lifetime. Plus, we got to do it all in a place that we can truly now call the mecca of healing and connection.

210: Kerri Kasem Shares Her Secrets for Ageless & Healthy Beauty PLUS How to Stop Sugar Cravings For Good

Kerri Kasem

Kerri went vegan at the age of 12. But that didn’t mean she was eating healthy…

 

Pasta, sugar, gluten, soy, and junk food made up much of her diet, causing drastic mood swings, low energy and skin issues. After 24 years of wrong-headed veganism, she finally acknowledged it was making her feel like crap. She had constant sugar cravings, was tired all the time, became anemic, started losing her hair, and her brain often went fuzzy.

 

And what did the doctor do? Prescribe medicine. There was no questioning Kerri about her diet. She was simply diagnosed with ADD, handed a order for pills and sent on her way.

 

At that moment, Kerri reached a different kind of brain moment: one of realization.

 

She realized her problem wasn’t about veganism. Her problem was about health and eating right. That’s because every major food choice you make dramatically affects your mood and your physical health. Your gut isn’t called a second brain for nothing – that’s where your immune system is, and where most of your serotonin is produced. So if you’re eating foods that cause poor digestion and inflammation in your gut, then you will affect your mental health and increase your risk of auto immune issues.

 

The biggest culprit in all of this is the one food we all find so hard to give up: SUGAR. Kerri only needed to walk past the aroma of strawberry shortbread to get a craving. We often associate sweet tastes or smells with happy times in our childhoods, so we naturally seek it out, especially when stressed or sad. And we’re hard-wired to desire sweet foods. Basically, we’re addicted to sugar from the get-go. So to really step into a life of health, we have to free ourselves from our built-in sugar cravings.

 

That’s exactly what Kerri did, and why she’s launched her new brand Ageless and Healthy, dedicated to helping people be the healthiest, most beautiful version of themselves. And if you already enjoy Food Heals, then you are going to die for Kerri’s podcast, The KPod (it’s what originally inspired us to start this show!!), so check it out!

 

Kerri’s Tips for Ageless Health and Beauty:

  • Hydration, hydration, hydration: have 2-3 liters of water a day and in 3 months you will look like you’ve had fillers in your face. That’s why you also need electrolytes to help your cells to absorb that water.
  • Vitamin C: apply vitamin C serum and take vitamin C supplements.
  • Make sure your anti-aging cream contains vitamin C and retinol. These nutrients WILL tighten your skin.
  • Use sunscreen.
  • HALO laser therapy & IPL (intense pulse light laser therapy)
  • Beauty begins from within…so stay beautiful and eat those greens! They instantly alkalize you and give off boundless energy (way better than coffee, people…just sayin’!).
  • Suffer from rosacea? Go on an elimination diet; focus first on the foods you eat or drink every day.
  • Stick to anti-inflammatory healing foods (turmeric, greens, antioxidants) and leave the junk foods on the shelf.

What you’ll learn in episode 210:

  • Why Kerri went vegetarian after 24 vegan years
  • Which food Kerri ate to stop her hair loss
  • Why you MUST cut out sugar as a vegan
  • Reasons to start supplementing today
  • How to completely free yourself from sugar cravings
  • Why brain chemical imbalance is not the cause of your depression
  • How pharmaceutical companies push their pills onto us (you might want to re-think which tv shows you watch!)
  • Why sugar is just as bad for your skin as smoking
  • The trick to looking beautiful and natural as you age
  • How Allison got rid of her sun spots
  • The best lasers and treatments for young, glowing skin
  • The best diet for allergies, weight loss, and inflammation

209: Money Mindset: How Powerhouse Women Can Step Out of the Hustle, Get Into Flow & Create A Successful Coaching Career

Lynne Taggart

Lynne Taggart works with spiritual entrepreneurs, deep diving into the inner work most of us avoid doing, to make their business super successful. Alli met Lynne at Level 3 of Spirit Junkie Masterclass.

 

Until then, Lynne had held back.

 

She did most of her work online because she didn’t feel ready to be that visible. But during a mastermind with Gabby Bernstein, Lynne realized she was being called to do more in-person work.

 

Lynne had to go through her own shifts before becoming a coach. She’d always been an entrepreneur, running her own fashion shop since she was 23. But despite her success, she was unhappy, insecure, anxious and burned out.

 

She closed the shop to become a stay at home mom, and fell into coaching because it was something she could easily do remotely. At first, she didn’t think about it as a business, but when she saw the potential for emotional growth and transformation, she knew she had found her calling.

 

Now Lynne runs events to help other women shift into who they are truly meant to be and reach their full potential. She helps her clients create a soulful online business and become un-apologetically abundant.

 

How can you attract this abundance into your life? First you need to tap into your purpose.

 

How can you know what you’re here to do? Don’t compare yourself to what other people are doing, but figure out what YOU love to do.

 

When you tap into the fact that we live in an abundant Universe, you realize it’s okay to charge for your gifts, to put your prices up, to earn a paycheck from your passion.

 

When you tap into the flow, it’s easier to realize what you want.

 

You need to change your energy to match what it is you want to attract into your life. You might want success, but are you ready for it?

 

There’s a huge difference between hustle and flow. It’s so easy for us to get stuck in the hustle – we’re busy, we’re rushing one place to the next, getting through our 2-mile-long-to-do-list.

 

But it’s hard to get inspired in that space. Flow is where ideas come to you: when you’re meditating, when you’re in the present and connected to the now.

 

Lynne’s secrets to manifest more abundance:

  • When you get an idea or a desire, don’t ignore it! You deserve it and you CAN do it. Recognize that desire and tune into it.
  • Explore the desire, what it looks like, what it feels like. You’re declaring to the Universe that you want it to happen.
  • Begin to look for signs and take heed. The Universe will deliver what you need to make your dreams happen.
  • Align: become a vibrational match for the desire.
  • And…Work with Lynne!
    • Soul Biz Mastery is a 12-module program for the new entrepreneur, that combines deep inner work and will teach you how to build your online business. The program includes live coaching calls with other program members.
    • Six-Month Private Coaching: for the powerhouse woman looking for results. Come out of the hustle, have some fun, experience joy, and become even more empowered.

 

Gabby Bernstein’s Principles for Running a Spiritual Business

You’ve seen what’s happening in the world, felt it deep, empathized with it, and held it within you. And that sent you a message:

 

Let’s go. Shine bright. Go big.

 

But to go big, you need money. Not just to pay your bills, but to nurture yourself, to give back, to really be abundant.

 

But if you stay within the energy of “I need to pay my bills”, you’re still in fear. Because there are infinite possibilities for abundance. Even getting fired is simply the Universe setting you free to start your heart-centered business. The same goes for debt. Debt is just a lesson you need to learn, something that needs to be healed. So be grateful for it. Thank it for teaching you, thank it for decreasing. Once you learn the lesson, the debt will disappear.

 

We can all have a quantum shift around money. You can heal your money mindset. So tell yourself “I can earn,” “I can do this.” That will create a new story, and that sends out a vibration to the world…

 

You’re ready for abundance.

 

Money is not complicated. You’re either coming at it from fear or love. If you’re fearful around money, you block it. If you’re in fear of money, it is because you have disconnected from spirit. You’re relying on your own strength. You need to reconnect with the Universe. So ask it: Show me how I can show up. Show me creative possibilities for abundance. Show me how I can serve.

 

Because when your work revolves around love, money flows. Your business needs to be about love, because love is a magnet, and it multiplies…and it is the only currency.

 

Your money situation, your business, your relationships, your body…everything is a reflection of your spiritual condition and your spiritual relationship.

 

In order to create abundance, we must believe in creative possibilities.

 

And if you want to follow your dream of starting up your own business, you really must check out Gabby Bernstein’s latest video, where she shares a special invitation, a shout-out to all those who want to inspire others by doing what inspires them.

207: The Transformational Power of Kundalini Yoga, Stand-Up Comedy & Giving Yourself Permission with Danielle Mercurio

Danielle Mercurio

Today’s episode is brought to you by Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Masterclass.

 

Kundalini teacher, spiritual coach, comedian, speaker, all-round entrepreneurial superstar…

 

…Danielle Mercurio is a gipsy of all trades who is living her truth.

 

It wasn’t always that way, though. As a child she dreamed of being a performer, but it felt out of reach. Instead, she tried to do what she was told to do by society, working a job she didn’t enjoy because it met expectations in other people’s eyes. 

 

But that kind of living catches up with you, quick. After years of partying to escape the fact she wasn’t being true to herself, and too many mornings waking up not knowing what happened the night before, Danielle had a spiritual awakening. She was finally able to see her messy present  as an opportunity to explore what was on the other side.

 

It wasn’t a smooth ride. Danielle started slowly, with strategies to get to self-ok (self love would still take awhile to reach), where she could simply show up for her life. That “ok-ness” soon turned into genuinelty liking herself. Then, with the help of Kundalini yoga and Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Masterclass (she was one of the first people to sign up, ever), she was able to completely surrender to the flow and abundance of the universe, and find her path. She gave herself permission to get out of her corporate job and into the life she really wanted: spiritual entrepreneur, life coach, self-help comedian, speaker and podcaster.

 

Does this resonate with you? So many of us have that feeling inside that we’re not doing what we are truly supposed to. We have all these great ideas, but because we seek validation from external sources, we never give ourselves that go-ahead to take action.

 

But the fact you’re here, reading this today, is no accident.

 

If you feel the desire to set up a food business or do life coaching or become a spiritual entrepreneur, that is the universe giving you permission.

 

And there is no better time to go for it than RIGHT NOW. You do not need external permission to start a YouTube channel, or a podcast, or a blog, or to start that spiritual business.

 

Instead, the most important step you can take is checking out Gabby Bernstein’s latest video, where she shares a special invitation to all those who want to inspire others by doing what inspires them.

 

Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Digital Masterclass will give you all the tools you need to gain the confidence you need to own your purpose, take spiritually-aligned action, and create massive transformations in your career and your life. You will:

Gipsy after Hours Podcast

206: Start your Love-Based Business and Make Money From Your Passion with Gabby Bernstein

Love Based Business

Today’s episode about making a lasting impact on the world is brought to you by Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Masterclass.

 

Four super-successful entrepreneurs have tips, tricks and secrets to share with you that will change your life and the way you think about business!

 

Gabby Bernstein: Share your gifts with the world

It’s not okay to accept money for your skills…

 

…it’s actually imperative!

 

And this world needs more people with the skill of transformational leadership. It’s less about having a really fun career (even though that is an awesome part of it) and more about being of service to the world – and that happens by sharing your authentic self, your wisdom, and your unique talents.

 

The problem is, if we don’t accept abundance for doing that work, then we’re not able to do it effectively enough to enact positive change. If you don’t accept money for your skills, then you deny the world a service it desperately needs…and you deny yourself the life you’ve always dreamed of.

 

It’s time to get unapologetic about your abundance.

 

But this is hard, right? So many of us hold on to stories (“you’ve gotta work slowly up the ladder to get anywhere in life”) that keep us stuck in financial fear. We feel it’s wrong to accept money for spiritual work, or don’t really believe we can make a living doing what we love because it seems to go against what we’ve been taught.

 

These are all lies that stop you from sharing your gifts and showing up for the world in a bigger way.

 

But there’s a lot you can do to free yourself from those old beliefs, change your financial story and open yourself up to ABUNDANCE.

 

In Gabby Bernstein’s third video training, she will teach you how to make publicity and marketing fun (instead of scary), how you can make an impact doing what you love, plus her secret method for really standing out and being heard.

Kelsey Dalziel: Your Intuition will guide you

Founder of the Sisterhood of TiredAss Moms, medium, meditation teacher and coach Kelsey Dalziel is a true inspiration (check out Episode 160 for her story). She went from doing nails and being a depressed, exhausted mom to achieving her dream: helping other tired-ass moms go from survival mode to thrive-al mode, and set up their own businesses. Taking Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Masterclass gave Kelsey the confidence she needed to follow her heart and take that leap.

 

Plus, it put her in touch with the best business partner ever: THE UNIVERSE!!

 

Kelsey believes you already know where you need to be. But fear and self-doubt stop you from being clear and going for your goals. If you feel unsure what to do next, just ask. Your intuition, the universe, your spirit guides are all offering guidance…all you need to do is pay attention.

 

Laura Petersen: You ARE an expert

Laura owns Copy that Pops, a brand that helps entrepreneurs who are passionate about sharing their story in a compelling, engaging, authentic way (and becoming best-selling authors along the way). Laura has written two essential books for the aspiring writer: Copywriting for Podcasters and Permission to Write a Brand Building Book.

 

Laura’s favorite thing to do is make people Amazon best-sellers! In her masterclasses you go from the idea stage to the writing, publishing (or self-publishing) and marketing stage, using strategies and mindset shifts you’d have never thought of to get there. Her group and inner circle provide the support you need to make your brand grow and really pop. All so you can take it to the next level.

 

And if you’re thinking “who am I to write a book?”, stop. Your goal is not to impress other gurus…your goal is to help someone! Let go of the negativity you’ve put down ou ARE expert enough, and it’s your duty to share your knowledge.

 

Michele PW: Selling with love instead of fear

Michele is a fellow podcaster and best-selling author of the Love-Based Business series of books. Her mission is to help people feel all their feelings so they don’t let their feelings control their actions. She discovered her love-based philosophy through love-based copy writing. Instead of getting sales through fear, she realized that she could build a business through love. Head over to her Love Based Biz Blog to get tips on how to sell from a place of love.

 

Most of us don’t put money and love in the same box. But the truth shared from these four kick-ass entrepreneurs is that unless we shift our mindset, we block abundance.

 

What are your financial beliefs? Some of us think rich people are evil, that money doesn’t grow on trees, that it’s never there, that it goes out quicker than it comes in, that you have to work hard for it…

 

What kind of energy is that putting out?

 

A great way to start transforming your relationship with money is to examine your beliefs and underlying feelings around it. What comes up for you when you think about money? Decide how you want to feel about it, and start putting that out there. When you approach your finances from a place of love and abundance, you open the door for that abundance to flow towards you. We love Michelle’s podcast Love-Based Money.

205: How to Think and Grow Rich and Live an Abundant Life with James Whittaker

James Whittaker

Today’s episode about transforming your money mindset is brought to you by Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Masterclass.

 

One book has created more millionaires than any other in history.

 

It’s so good, it’s on Oprah Winfrey and Jim Carrey’s reading lists!

 

Written all the way back in 1937, the groundbreaking book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill is a collection of strategies learned from the most powerful businessmen of that time. It’s the original how-to guidebook to financial freedom, and has now been made both into a film and rewritten book for a modern audience.

 

James Whittaker grew up with an appreciation of what it means to be engaged in personal finance. Because of that, he naturally got into financial planning and spent 10 years in the industry before he finally followed his childhood dream and started his own business. He soon figured out that what he really wanted for himself was to was help people take ownership of their financial, physical and mental health. A “chance” meeting with the film-makers of Think and Grow Rich: The Legacy provided him with the perfect opportunity to do just that by writing the updated version of the original classic. Let’s just say he took advantage of that opportunity.

 

What does it mean to be rich? It goes beyond how many Ferraris you have parked on the driveway. Having a rich life means experiencing abundance in your health, your relationships, your work, your day-to-day living.

 

Here are some of James’s tips for experiencing abundance in mind, body, spirit and finances:

  • Get clear about what you want: It’s natural to worry about the past, but those feelings are stronger because you’re unsure about the future. Get clear about your perfect life destination and begin taking daily steps to get there (the 5-minute journal is great for this).
  • Embrace the struggle: nothing moves when you’re in your comfort zone. When you’re uncomfortable, that’s when great things happen.
  • Identify your limiting beliefs and work to eliminate them.
  • Think about your environment: Are you hanging around energy vampires?
  • Figure out ways to be more effective every day. Can you delegate any tasks? Re-arrange your routine? Keep it simple and consistent.
  • Make a positive contribution every day.
  • Don’t fall prey to magical thinking: You have to take action.
  • Focus on winning the day: live with more intent, more purpose and more passion.

 

Now imagine you could earn a great living doing what you love, like James Whittaker has. You probably started dismissing that idea as soon as it entered your head. Maybe you think it isn’t spiritual to charge for your services, or you don’t believe it’s realistic to make money following your passion. The problem with that kind of fear is that it blocks your abundance!

 

My dear friend, #1 New York Times bestselling author Gabby Bernstein, busts those myths in this new free training video — The 3 Major Blocks to Your Abundance and How to Fix Them!

 

Here’s what you can expect from this free training:

 

– Gabby’s proven process for making your purpose your profession

– How to earn a great living doing what you love

– The 3 biggest blocks to your abundance — and 3 steps that will totally energize you and transform your money mindset!

204: Go Vegan Effortlessly, Share Your Story, and Save The World with The Vegan Bros

Vegan Bros

Today’s episode is brought to you by Gabby Bernstein’s Spirit Junkie Masterclass.

 

When you’re on a journey of spiritual growth and transformation, pretty amazing things can happen. There comes a point when you hear the call to share the lessons you have learned in your life . . . and that’s exactly what happened for today’s guests: Phil and Matt, aka The Vegan Bros.

 

Serial entrepreneurs Matt and Phil are experts in the field of veganism and the science and art of social change. They’ve been featured in Vice, Business Insider, the Guardian and many more. Their views on veganism may be polarizing, but we LOVE their passion, drive and mission.

 

No one would ever guess that the obese kid and the skinny socially awkward kid, raised in a “Jesus-club-on-acid” environment (where vegetarians are considered a strange subspecies, and where drinking alcohol sends you straight to hell) would end up revolutionizing the world.

 

But Matt and Phil believe every journey we take in life happens for a reason and that challenges only make you a stronger, wiser person. Having been through some crazy shit themselves – from being offered hypertension medication at just 20 years old and losing 100 pounds, to being a vegan animal activist in deep bible-belt America – the Vegan Bros’ mission is to bring the vegan world and the rest of the world together.

 

Their book, Vodka is Vegan: A Manifesto For Better Living And Not Being An Asshole is the definitive guide to becoming a vegan, without any of the drama or judgement. This book will get you to think about the vegan approach in a completely new way . . . like realizing that if you’re opposed to animal abuse, you’re already 90% vegan – your diet is just the last 10%. We know making that change isn’t easy! Especially if you’ve spent your entire life eating meat, or punishing yourself for still using honey.  With this book, you can follow Matt and Phil’s foot-in-the-door technique: take it slow, go at your own pace and find what works for YOU. Start with a shot of vodka (it’s vegan, after all, and gluten free). And keep an open mind! Remember, most of what you already eat is accidentally vegan. 

 

Get your copy of Vodka is Vegan and let The Vegan Bros guide you on an effortless, judgement-free 14-week trip into plant-based living. It’s out NOW, and you can also get it on Audible.

 

If, like Matt and Phil, you have an amazing story to share. . .

 

. . . then you NEED to check out Gabby Bernstein’s FREE 3-part video training so you too can make a living doing what you love.

 

In this first video, Gabby shares 3 steps you can take to truly own your confidence and get into action now.

 

She took these very 3 steps to become a speaker, author and public figure with zero background in her field.

 

Like Gabby, you’ll gain the confidence to embrace the fact that you have a divine purpose — and start taking inspired action so it can unfold (just like it did for The Vegan Bros).

203: Free Yourself From Chronic Backpain And Transform Your Life Through Posture With Dr. Krista Burns

Krista Burns

These days, it seem like everyone’s got back pain.

 

80% of Americans experience lower back pain at some point in their lives. Plus, it’s now considered the number one reason people go to their doctor! No surprise really…we spend so much of our time sitting – at our desks, on our sofas, in our cars, over our cellphones… Therefore, poor posture is definitely to blame for our ailments. And this might surprise you, but poor posture quickly makes for a poor attitude (it’s been proven!).

 

Growing up, Dr. Krista Burns wanted nothing more than to be a professional skier. But a back injury put an end to that dream, and conventional treatment only made matters worse (surprise, surprise…). Despite all of the setbacks, she knew there had to be a way to heal herself.

 

After obtaining her first doctorate, she designed a 3-component system to address back pain. Through: 

 

  1. spinal alignment
  2. posture rehabilitation
  3. posture habit re-education,

 

She freed herself from the chronic pain she had been experiencing for years. Since then, she has been determined to help people prevent or overcome back problems.

 

Dr. Krista is now a certified chiropractic doctor, inspiring public speaker, and published author. She’s co-founded the American Posture Institute, where she and her team train healthcare providers to teach their patients proper posture. She’s also the brains behind www.posturearchetype.com. Take the free assessment to check your own posture archetype and receive a postural transformation solution designed specifically for you.

 

Now, How Exactly Does Posture Affect Mood?

How you stand directly impacts how you feel. Similarly, how you feel directly impacts how you stand. It’s a vicious cycle. When you feel depressed, you hunch your shoulders, cross your arms, hold your head low. When you feel uplifted, you stand straight, shoulders back, head held high. But the truth is, at any moment you can choose to feel uplifted…or choose to feel depressed.

 

By changing your posture, you can achieve a new emotional state.

 

This fact is supported by science. Studies have shown that people with poor posture are more likely to experience negative moods and be self-critical. In the same way, people with good posture are happier, feel more confident, have a positive body image. You have the power to change your mood, simply by changing how you hold your body.

 

Dr. Krista’s Tips for Back Pain Relief:

  • First and foremost, get to the root cause of your pain (take the archetype assessment)
  • Move the area where you feel pain
  • Strengthen your core – it will help support your spine and maintain postural alignment
  • Bring your cellphone or laptop up to eye level so you’re not constantly looking down in a slumped posture. Avoid tech-neck!
  • Create an active workspace. Standing desk, active sitting (like sitting on an exercise ball or posture cushion).
  • Take frequent posture breaks; get up and stretch.
  • Use a posture reminder – this will help you create long lasting back-friendly habits.
  • Have a postural evaluation every year, just like you’d have a health check.

 

Plus, Eco Vegan Gal Whitney Lauritsen’s Tips To Go Vegan:

  • You don’t need to be perfect. Allow yourself time to transition.
  • Don’t be afraid of what other people think.
  • There’s a lot to learn about veganism; it’s harder than going vegetarian. Give yourself the resources (podcasts, documentaries, blogs, etc.) to make it easier to transition.
  • Add more plants to your diet; we’ve got some great tips for this coming up in Episode 204 with Vegan Bros!
  • Reach out to a vegan community. www.ecoveganpal.com is a great resource and supportive plant-based network.
  • Replace non-vegan foods you love with delicious plant-based versions. Shop online if there are no options near you: www.happycow.com, www.veganessentials.com, and www.thrivemarket.com are good places to start.
  • Make your own delicious vegan food by getting inspiration online. Try the Plan to Eat app to find recipes, meal plans and shopping lists.
  • Check out Whitney’s book Healthy Organic Vegan on a Budget: www.veganebook.com
