EP 106: Your Health Is Not A Conspiracy With Josh & Jeanne Rubin

Screen+Shot+2020-11-24+at+11.05.18+AM.jpg

As pioneers in restoring thyroid and metabolic health, Josh & Jeanne have taken “food as medicine” to the next level. With over 20 years of research and experience they have unlocked the secret to what defines a healthy, healing and sustainable diet. It’s You. More specifically your ability to metabolize and process not only the food you eat but the environment you live, into energy – your body’s most basic and fundamental need.

Josh and Jeanne created Restoration Thyroid Nutrition (RTN) which is a method designed to teach you how to use your food with strategy and intention to unravel the long-term effects chronic stress has had on the body while building a solid foundation for the body to heal and ultimately reach optimal thyroid health.

The patterns of healing they have observed over the last 12 years of applying the principles of the RTN Method have provided them with the greatest knowledge and experience—proving even more powerful than their combined years of research and study in nutrition.

Connect with Josh & Jeanne here:

Today I'm talking to Josh & Jeanne Rubin of East West Healing about why health has become a conspiracy. How we make it way too complicated and what we can do about it by learning how to create an inner calm with our nutrition practice.

We talk about:

  • How they’re seeing an increase of anxiety in younger people because of more technology and the lack of boredom

  • Why we make our health so complicated and what we can do to make it simple, light, fun and sustainable.

  • The value in listening to people who are experienced in their field of expertise in holistic health.

  • Why considering your physiological load in your nutrition program is essential to your success.

  • How to create an inner calm and resilience through your nutrition practice.

EP 97: A Holistic Health Perspective On COVID-19 With Danielle Melanson

Screen+Shot+2020-05-09+at+9.24.11+AM.jpg

Danielle Melanson is a licensed acupuncturist in Portland Oregon. Danielle received her master’s degree in Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine from the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in Portland, Oregon. She is a member of the American Association of Oriental Medicine (AAOM) and board certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM). She has additional certification in Chinese herbal medicine and the ability to prescribe custom Chinese herbal formulas for her patients. She is also a member of the Oregon Association for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (OAAOM).

Danielle’s priority as a health care provider is to take the proper time to listen and establish a relationship with each one of her patients. She believes the journey to health is unique for each person, and that Acupuncture and Chinese herbs have the ability to heal on many different levels. With an open heart, in a supportive environment, her experience has taught her that every person can become more aware of their bodies and find a more optimal state of health through Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM.)

When not caring for patients, Danielle enjoys a lifestyle of hiking, skiing, mountain biking, boogie boarding and cooking with her son, Harry.

 
 

What is Qi?

The Classical Chinese explanation is that energy (Qi) flows in channels (meridians) throughout the body and over its surfaces. The Chinese have identified 71 of these rivers of energy which is a basic energy map for all people. The meridians are often compared to a series of interconnected highways. Each of the major organs is associated with its own highway. Through this network, internal organs are connected to certain areas and parts of the body including the muscles, bones, joints, and other organs.

When the body is internally balanced and in harmony with the external environment, Qi flows smoothly through the highways to nourish the organs and tissues. If an obstruction occurs it causes a traffic jam, the Qi is disrupted and cannot flow properly or has to flow in the opposite direction. Just like a ten car pile up would stop the flow from one part of a city to the other, resulting in stress, delays and potentially accidents, the body’s innate balance is disrupted and disease (or dis-ease) results.

Acupuncture points are the specific points on the meridians where the Qi is both concentrated and accessible. Qi is engaged and flow is returned by inserting needles at specific points. As the body regains its natural balance and Qi flows freely, well-being and health return.

EP 96: How To Physically & Energetically Ground, Connect & Align Yourself

allison-19 (1).jpg

In today's episode I share a holistic perspective on how you can perceive your time in quarantine and the coronavirus. How to transmute our fears into love, abundance and creativity.

I talk about how you can begin to build trust both your body and with your own inner voice again with some practical daily embodiment practices and journaling.

This will help you connect with yourself which spills into connecting with others. Alignment can only happen when we begin to examine what no longer serves us in our lives on an individual level first and then as a collective. In other words, you have to get clear on you first.

In part two I go into more of the physical ways you can support your body’s natural immune response by supporting your metabolism.

EP 93: Natural Foods Entrepreneurship & Motherhood With Junea Rocha

Screen+Shot+2020-02-06+at+7.15.45+PM.jpg

Junea Rocha is the Co-founder and CMO of Brazi Bites. Junea Rocha moved to the US in 2005 after graduating from college in Civil Engineering and took a job in construction management in Portland, Oregon.

She rose through the ranks quickly, and hit a career-high, yet she felt unfulfilled. It would have been easy for Junea to lean into the success she found in engineering, but when she imagined her future she knew she would rather reflect on taking a risk and following her dream than looking back with regret by playing it safe and sticking with a career she wasn’t passionate about.

Not having any immediate background in the culinary or food space, Junea’s love and passion for her homeland ignited an idea. In 2010, she and her husband started Brazi Bites with the hopes that Americans would love Brazilian Cheese Bread (“Pão de queijo”) as much as they did.

Screen Shot 2020-02-06 at 7.20.11 PM.png

In 2015, Junea and Cameron had the opportunity to pitch Brazi Bites on ABC’s Shark Tank. 9 million viewers watched the Sharks fall in love. Brazi Bites sold out nationwide and became a freezer aisle must-have in grocery stores across the country.

Shark Tank Episode

instagram: @brazi_bites

 

In this episode we talk about:

  • What Brazilian cheese is and the culture that’s been built around it.

  • Junea shares her experience of going from knowing nothing about the natural food industry to owning a successful natural food business called Brazi Bites.

  • What inspired Junea to bring Brazilian cheese bread to the US.

  • What it’s like to be a female founder and a mother at the same time.

  • Why great products don’t always make it and how you can support them.

  • Junea’s experience on Shark Tank.

  • How Junea creates a successful self care practice amidst her career as a company founder, CMO and a mother.

EP76: Bridging The Gap Between Hormones & Self Worth With Justine Cecile

Natural.png

Justine Cécile is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner supporting professional women who are struggling with raging hormones, even when they are on hormone therapy.

While working on herself and with clients, Justine discovered that there are three areas in women’s health that are largely ignored; hormonal health as a whole, gut health and how our mind works with our biology.

Realizing that we are each responsible for our own health, Justine Cécile brings her personal experience, education and resources together to guide and mentor women to regain control of their health and happiness.

In addition, to analyzing lab diagnostics and supporting corrective care with targeted supplement protocols, Justine Cécile has developed a systematic approach to coaching based on her philosophy that the reality of an individual’s health and happiness is designed by them, not built by them alone and five principles that supports the individual’s ability to know themselves and develop their own systems for achieving both health and happiness with a true sense of freedom.

Justine Cécile has spent the last 18 years mastering how to get in-tune with the body, learning how to uncover what the subconscious wants and desires and how to influence environments to improve our experience with life.

Prior to championing women’s health, she served in the military and worked with refugees, was a university professor, a programmer and managed software development and now has branched out to support women who have put themselves last for most of their lives.

Her personal experience with a chronic illness that is poorly understood and her strengths of being able to connect the dots, to communicate complex issues with simplicity and to sincerely connect with others has led her to the path she is on today.

EP75: Creating Accountability In Your Fitness Practice

IMG_7453 2 FINAL.jpg

I think accountability, the act of being responsible for self, is a practice and depending on where we start and how well we know ourselves, it’s a process.

According to Brene Brown accountability is connected to courage. She explains since accountability opposes blame, we can see how not having accountability can keep us in a victimhood state of mind. One that paralyzes us and keeps us in shame without being able to move forward and find resolution.

I’ve gone through this myself and with many of my clients. Accountability is hard and most of the time we need someone to walk us through it if we’re not sure where to start.

The most uncomfortable part is finding the courage to be honest with yourself about what is or isn’t working. I’ve been in denial about what’s not working more times than I can count. Sometimes it takes a little push from the people who care about me most, but when I can be honest with myself and begin to take steps toward what could work, I find my life shifts into alignment.

When you stop hustling and guessing you can begin to make decisions that are based on your values. When you give yourself space to slow down and to reflect then you’re better able to make decisions from a place of awareness rather than not.

Coming from this place of awareness is incredibly helpful in shaping a foundational plan that’s based on your values (not someone else’s)

You no longer have to guess, self criticize or get frustrated because things aren’t working. Instead you come from a place of knowing what works and what doesn’t so that you can start moving toward your goal.

But you’ll never know this unless you look at what you’re doing first.

You most likely will make mistakes, but it’s a learning process. If we can avoid attaching ourselves to the shame of messing up and instead realize that messing up is part of the process of learning, our experience can be way more impactful.

Moving forward with courage instead of shame and blame is the first step in holding yourself accountable and trusting yourself again.

 
 

Accountability tools for Success

You don’t even have to participate in extreme dieting tactics if you don’t want to. All you have to do is become aware of how much you take in in relation to how much you move. It’s that simple.

Some people are not taking in enough and some are taking in too much without getting enough movement to offset the calorie intake. Some people are eating too much in one sitting and could benefit from splitting the bigger meals up and spreading them out throughout the day.

 

What these tools will help you see:

  • Your macronutrients ratios and discover what works best

  • What vitamins and minerals you’re getting and which ones you may not be getting enough of.

  • Your food patterns - if you’re eating too much in one sitting or not eating enough.

  • If you’re eating low quality foods you’ll quickly discover that you’ll not be satisfied with your normal calorie intake.

 

Tools I Use:

Cronometer - A food logging app. It tracks calorie intake and compares it to how much movement you’re getting each day. This app helps you discover how much you’re taking in comparing to how much you’re expending. Cronometer integrates with Fitbit and offers a paid option of splitting your meals so you can see how much you are eating at each meal. I find this to be incredibly helpful to know.

Fitbit - tracks; hours of sleep, gives you your weekly average weight, daily water intake and movement

Note: If your goal is to lose weight, You want to take your weight everyday first thing in the morning with the same scale. Then take the weekly average. That way you will see a true measure of weight rather than the day to day fluctuation (because you will fluctuate depending on the time of day and where you are in your cycle)

Temp and pulse - Use your temperature and pulse readings to find out how your metabolism is functioning and responding to changes you are making.

Mood - Your mood will always give you an indication of how your physiology is working. It will also tell you if you’re not getting enough energy or if you have tons of energy.

EP69: Build The Body You Love With Kitty Blomfield

Screen Shot 2019-03-14 at 8.43.01 PM.png

Kitty Blomfield is a director at Nustrength Personal Training based in Brisbane Australia. She also has the Nustrength Youtube Channel with a series of different shows geared toward food prep, nutrition education and inspiring testimonials. She's passionate about empowering people through the right nutrition and strength training.

For many years Kitty struggled with body image and was your typical over-exerciser and under-eater. Her weight would yo-yo, she lacked energy, slept poorly, and suffered from terrible binge eating. It was so bad that she'd train six days a week for up to two and a half hours a day and would eat a low calorie and low carb diet.

In 2014 Kitty was introduced to the work of Doctor Ray Peat, Emma Sgourakis (The Nutrition Coach), Dodie Anderson and Rob Turner. Their research challenged her entire belief system around what constitutes ‘true health and fitness’. Since then, she's never looked back.

Kitty now only trains three days a week and does very little cardio apart from the occasional walk in the sun. She follows a structured and measured training program and eats to fuel her body now as opposed to depriving her body the way she used to.

As a result Kitty is the strongest she's ever been and she's in the best shape of her life but most importantly she feels the best she's ever felt. In 2015 Kitty competed in her first powerlifting competition and broke the GPC record for deadlifting in the under 75kg weight class. In March 2016 she competed at ProRaw8 and won the female deadlift only competition with a deadlift of 207.5kgs at 71.5kgs body weight.

She believes that if you want to be in the best shape of your life you need to love the process. If you focus on getting stronger in the gym, tracking and measuring your training and nutrition and nourish your body with the right food the physique will look after itself.

According to Kitty, there's something extremely empowering about being a strong female, she wants to help you become the healthiest, happiest and strongest version of yourself in and out of the gym.

After receiving a BA in English and American literature in 1984 he spent the next two decades traveling around the world, pausing in unexpected places to work at decidedly odd jobs (e.g., gutting salmon in Alaska, teaching English to prostitutes in Bangkok and self-defense to land-reform activists in Mexico, managing commercial real-estate in New York’s Diamond District, helping Spanish physicians translate and publish their research). In his mid-30s, Chris decided to return to school to pursue doctoral studies in Psychology at Saybrook Graduate School, in San Francisco, CA.
