In this episode, I discuss the role of your conscious subconscious minds – and how it’s the subconscious that is really the boss and how our childhood programming impacts our adult beliefs, thoughts, feelings, actions, and results!

Today I want to talk about starting your day with a shake. The reason that it's such a great way to start the day is that you can pack your shake full of good nutrients and vitamins from fruits and vegetables, etc. But then the blender is doing a lot of the work for you and digestion doesn't have to work as hard.

Living a life I have designed that is full of purpose and passion, joy and happiness, every day. If I can do it, you absolutely can too!!

HH09: Create A Body That is Inhospitable To Disease

HH08: Don't Forget to Chew!

HH07: Detox Day

Dr. Tom and I discuss how the way he practices medicine has changed since his med school days, it’s no longer about giving someone a diagnosis with doomsday messaging or relying just on a pill, it is more than that and revolves around the idea of metabolic flexibility. The ability for the body to cope with stresses and recover, to enjoy relaxation, and then be able to move back into a stress state, it all about a body in balance, a body that has flexibility, rather than being stuck in one state of high stress or low metabolic rate. We are now realizing that the body is amazing at healing itself, given the right environment and people can heal from chronic illness and auto-immune diseases even if you’ve been told otherwise! Looking at the whole body, using food as medicine, practicing self-care, and addressing other lifestyle factors such as sleep and stress, the body truly heals and there is always hope. Dr. Tom loves to say “let the body finish the job”.
