http://LearnTrueHealth.com/how-to-meditate A Simple Step-By-Step Guide To Meditate and Go Deeper Forrest Knutson, an expert in Yogic Meditation, is back on the show to teach us all HOW to meditate. He gives us a simple step-by-step method to begin meditating each day, and for those who have been meditating for a while, he covers techniques to go deeper. This particular type of meditation can be a spiritual experience, in that you are encouraged to utilize your spiritual beliefs within your meditation. Christians can incorporate Jesus, Catholics can incorporate Mother Mary or one of their favorite saints. Others may choose Buddha, an angel, Allah or the Divine Light. Whoever you have a personal connection with. Forrest explains how to incorporate your spirituality into your meditation for an inspiring and profound experience. If you do not have a defined spirituality, do not worry, you can still use meditation for its many benefits! Here is a summary of Forrest's step-by-step guide: 1) Quiet Room or corner of your room. 2) Sit on the floor or sit with your back straight on a chair. 3) Straight spine with one vertebra under the other. 4) Place a pillow under your sacrum to tilt your pelvis slightly forward when sitting. This will aid your back in aligning itself. 5) If you can, sit in a half or full lotus position. This is sitting with your legs crossed. 6) Sit on a wool, fur or silk blanket. 7) Pitch dark room. 8) It is nice to prepare an altar with an image of your spiritual ideal. Jesus, Buddha or perhaps the divine light, etc... someone you connect with personally who inspires you, who you want to connect with, this is your goal. 9) Sway a little side to side and back and forth to align your spine. 10) Double breath - Listen to episode #25 for Forrest's detailed explanation of the double breath. 11) Watch your breath. 12) Hong-Sau Breath. 13) Gently lift eyes to look at your spiritual eye (between and slightly above eyebrows). 14) Feel and watch frontal sinus inflate while breathing. 15) Start doing this for a few minutes at a time each day and build up your endurance. Please share this episode with those who you know would love to learn how to meditate and receive all of the emotional, mental, physical and spiritual benefits that daily meditation has to offer.

For over 21 years Jen has helped many people find their path to health through the physical medicine of pilates, the healing power of prayer and the nutrifying addition of healthy diet and supplements. Her biggest concern is that people have supplement confusion. Many people believe that supplementing with vitamins, minerals, amino acids, herbs and omega fatty acids is a good thing. The problem is what to take, how much to take and when to take it! Jen offers herself as a Supplement Coach to those who are seeking to finally relieve the confusion and get on the right supplements for them. To reach Jennifer, please email her: Jennifer@takeyoursupplements.com Here’s What You’ll Discover: Eliminate degenerative diseases Prolong life and good health Increase your sense of vitality, energy and stamina Achieve deeper, more restful sleep Health AH-HA Moment: The modern era of convenience, fast food, and reactive medicine has eliminated preventive medicine and full nutrition from our lives. We must teach ourselves how to implement holistic activities, like earthing, taking supplements and eating organic foods, to prevent disease and maintain optimal health. Your Challenge: Jennifer challenges listeners to take action. If you want better health, do something and reach out for help. Jennifer says to pay attention to the number of seemingly healthy and young people that are getting diseases that were once only had by the elderly. Degenerative diseases are from lack of the raw building blocks the body needs to keep itself together. Pay attention to your own symptoms. Stop believing you have these symptoms because it's genetic or normal for your age or gender. True health is living symptom-free. Nutrition, both from food and supplements, play a major role in aiding your body in its overall health.

In this episode, Dr. Heidi shares that our bowel movements are directly connected to our health. If we have constipation or diarrhea it can affect many aspects of our well-being, including our mood, energy, immune system and toxin elimination! You may think you're all set when it comes to your bowel movements but Dr. Heidi teaches how you can achieve OPTIMAL digestive health that will lead to GREAT bowel movements! Please share this episode with those loved ones in your life that you know struggle in the bathroom. Dr. Heidi is passionate about helping everyone achieve the perfect poop for optimal health! Here’s What You’ll Discover: Your gut health plays a direct role in your mood! The average American only poops 1 - 2 times a week! For OPTIMAL health, we should have a bowel movement 1 to 3 times a DAY! The color of your stool is related to your liver, toxin elimination and bile. Constipation means you are dehydrated and reabsorbing toxins your liver was trying to get rid of! Health AH-HA Moment: Great BMs mean your body is optimally hydrated, removing and not reabsorbing toxins, supporting its immune system, optimally absorbing micro and macro nutrients and establishing an internal environment that stimulates your body to feel happy! Your Challenge: To achieve and maintain healthy bowel movements: 1. Drink adequate water daily - Listen to episode #04 with Dr. Molly 2. Eat around 25g of fiber a day - Apples, pears, berries, green veggies, beans and dark squash are all good sources of fiber. 3. Eat healthy fats daily - Nuts, seeds, avocado, eggs and fish are all good sources of healthy fats. 4. Salt your food to taste with sea salt. 5. Take a liquid multimineral supplement daily according to your body weight (http://takeyoursupplements.com/ for more info on the best supplements to take) 6.

Oleg is an expert in the healing properties of cannabis, and his business, Green Bloom For Humanity, is leading the industry in developing RAW, non-psychoactive cannabinoids. “Don’t get high, get healthy” is Green Bloom’s motto. Oleg helps Ashley and his audience understand the significance of cannabis. The lay person thinks that marijuana is just trouble, causing highs that lead to addiction and run-ins with the law. However, consumed in raw form, it is not just a medicine, it is also a supplement. Cannabis can supplement 40 types of food groups and all vitamins, enhancing their curative capacities. Cannabis has been used for its profound therapeutic value for centuries. As a matter of fact he found cannabis mentioned 66 times in the Old Testament. With his cannabis protocol he has helped a final stage cancer patient attain full remission after having been released from the hospital to die. Oleg goes deep into the differences between cannabis grown indoors with chemicals and artificial light and cannabis grown organically in the sun. Negative reactions from the former are caused by the plants not having been washed, by fungus, mildew, pesticides, and spider mites. Pure RAW cannabis has unlimited medicinal value with no side effects. Oleg describes the four different cannabis delivery methods, and emphasizes that anxiety and pain can be eliminated quickly and completely, while those who can’t sleep will now sleep through the night. Oleg accepts Ashley’s invitation to participate again in a future show. Here’s What You’ll Discover: If you remove the element of getting high on cannabis, you remove the stigma and you’re left with a healing herb. Cannabis sold in stores has probably been grown inside with chemicals and artificial light. When it is grown naturally outside in the sun it is much more therapeutic. Cannabis can substitute for all forms of oils, fibers and textiles. It’s impossible to overdose on cannabis. Health AH-HA Moment: Those who follow Oleg’s protocol often experience complete pain relief within 40 minutes.

He left the safety of the ashram to pursue a self-reliant life as a yogi householder. Through a lifetime of meditation and study Forrest observed key elements of meditation and simplified them so that anyone who applied themselves could learn and achieve a successful meditative state. Today Forrest teaches through his books and online through video training available in the Learn True Health’s membership. Meditation is a practice where an individual trains the mind or induces a mode of consciousness, either to realize some benefit or for the mind to simply acknowledge its content without becoming identified with that content, or as an end in itself. The term meditation refers to a broad variety of practices that includes techniques designed to promote relaxation, build internal energy or life force (qi, ki, prana, etc.) and develop compassion, love, patience, generosity and forgiveness. A particularly ambitious form of meditation aims at effortlessly sustained single-pointed concentration meant to enable its practitioner to enjoy an indestructible sense of well-being while engaging in any life activity. The word meditation carries different meanings in different contexts. Meditation has been practiced since antiquity as a component of numerous religious traditions and beliefs. Meditation often involves an internal effort to self-regulate the mind in some way. Meditation is often used to clear the mind and ease many health concerns, such as high blood pressure, depression, and anxiety. It may be done sitting, or in an active way—for instance, Buddhist monks involve awareness in their day-to-day activities as a form of mind-training. Here’s What You’ll Discover: The #1 most important thing to do in life. Understanding how we think and how we can change our behaviors Prayer before and after meditation is a form of protection Prayer and meditation are related Holy saints would meditate Health AH-HA Moment: Four days of practicing decreases our stress hormones by 25%! Your Challenge: Every day find time to practice your double breathing. At a stoplight, at work, before bed, are all good times to remember to double breathe.

I have found it to be very helpful to have all of these items on hand so at the first sign of a sore throat or sniffles I can begin to use these supplements and protocols to help my body fight off the germs as fast as possible. I have witnessed natural medicine working much faster and more efficiently than over the counter symptom suppressing drugs! All of these items and how to use them were taught to me by Naturopathic Doctors. 1. Organic Elder Berry Extract: http://amzn.to/1qVicMH 2. Organic Throat Coat Tea: http://amzn.to/1qViKSG 3. Nasal Colloidal Silver Spray: http://amzn.to/1qViZ0g 4. OLBAS (For steam inhalation and NOT for bathing): http://amzn.to/2448hqf 5. Neti Pod Kit: http://amzn.to/1qVk7Rw 6. For the 90 Essential Nutrients, Killer Biotic and the essential oil blends (1st Defence and To Be Well) Visit http://takeyoursupplements.com Chat with a True Health Coach. They will help you order the right supplements for you! 7. Diet These tips are what I have gathered from several top holistic doctors. When you need to boost your immune system: Avoid sugar, including grains, fruit and juice. Eat organic Increase healthy protein, like eggs, free-range chicken, beef and broth. Eat more leafy green veggies Avoid processed food. If it comes in a package and has ingredients you don’t recognise as organic, don’t eat it. Or put another way, if it is a plant, eat it. If it comes from a (manufacturing) plant…Don’t eat it. Immune Boosting Activities: Cold Wet Socks: 1. Drench your cotton socks in cold water or yarrow tea then stick them in the freezer. 2. Take a very hot bath or shower for 20 minutes. Feel free to add the Youngevity essential oil blends I mentioned above in your bath. Ten drops should work. 3. Take the now frozen wet socks and put them on your toasty warm feet and cover the wet cotton socks with dry wool socks. 4. Keep both pairs of socks on and go to bed. When you wake up your feet will be warm and you’ll feel a lot better than you did the night before. 5. Repeat the wet sock treatment for three nights in a row for best results. Neti Pot (Nasal Irrigation): Follow instructions that come with your Neti Pot. Essential Oil Steam Inhaler: 1. Boil water 2. Remove from heat and pour the water into a large bowl. 3. Add 2 drops of Olbas essential oil. 4. Cover your head and the bowl with a large bath towel 5. Place your face above the bowl and far enough away so the steam doesn’t burn you. 6. Inhale the hot steam for 3 minutes. 7. Add another 2 or 3 drops and repeat until the water has cooled down. 8. Repeat several times a day. Follow up with a neti pot, blowing your nose and then colloidal silver nasal spray. -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "▶ Raw Vegan Athlete - Suzanna McGee - #41 ◀" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj_d7vns6wQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

Steve is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, NASM Certified Personal Trainer and has earned his MS in Professional Counseling and Theory. Steve offers a workshop called "Thinking Your Way Into a Thinner Body" so if you would like to attend his workshop for free, or work with him one-on-one, please contact him by visiting: http://www.steveflansbaum.com/new-page/ In this podcast, Steve shares how our body image and our relationship with our body can easily be distorted by our mind. We think this is just a problem women have but men are just as prone to body dysmorphia. Looking in the mirror and obsessing over a flaw that isn’t there. Men want to be taller with more muscles and as Steve points out, he gained 100lbs of muscle body building and when he looked in the mirror his mind could not let him see his accomplishment, only his believe that it wasn’t enough. It will never be enough until you heal the relationship with yourself. Steve shares that the relationship to our behavior needs to change. The language we use, the identity we form, around our problem is a good place to start. You will stay, “This is my arm. I have an arm.” But when it comes to fat we say “I am fat”. It has become that person’s identity. If it’s their belief system they will always hold onto that problem and beat themselves up over that problem when they look in the mirror no matter how much weight they lose. If you change your relationship to the problem in order to solve the problem. Our habits are our continuous behaviors that result in our health. If we want to make permanent health changes we need to start from within so we can affect our environment and our habits to align with our health goals. Steve shares that this isn’t about beating yourself up or killing ourselves at the gym. Having understanding, compassion and love for yourself is one of his first steps. If we would look at how we treat ourselves like how two people treat each other we would realize that we are in an abusive relationship with ourselves! Here’s What You’ll Discover: How to begin to change your relationship you have with your body image Steps to forgiving and trusting yourself again How to make your choices be around your strengths so you have the most willpower you can Loving your life and living your passion Health AH-HA Moment: Exercise choice where we have it. Knowing where you do have a choice and avoiding environments where you know you will give into what you do not want to give into. This is one way you can nurture yourself and build trust with yourself again. Said another way, if you had a close friend who was a recovering alcoholic you wouldn’t ask them to go to the liquor store with you, so why do you walk down the aisle at the grocery store that contains the foods you want to avoid and then beat yourself up when you put them in your cart. Or if you are trying to quit smoking, pay for your gas outside so you don’t give yourself the opportunity to be confronted at the cash register by the cigarettes for sale. Take a step back and find where you do have willpower. If you don’t go down the aisle you won’t force yourself into that situation. Treat yourself with the same love and respect you would treat a friend. Your Challenge: Check out Steve’s website and give him a call. He can do Skype consultations and help you shift your internal and external environment to be in alignment with your health goals.

This show's blog post: http://learntruehealth.com/ Subscribe on iTunes: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-itunes Subscribe on Google Play: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-googlemusic April Haugen earned her Master of Science in Midwifery and Bachelor of Science in Herbal Science from Bastyr University in 2014. Between 2010 and 2014 she attended over 160 births as a student midwife. And from the year 2000 till now she has also been working as a doula. April is trained in herbal medicine and uses its ability to support the body’s natural healing in her midwifery care. Her master thesis was titled “Using herbal medicine for labor induction and augmentation: An evidence-based practice guideline for Licensed Midwives” It’s shocking to her that nationwide the C-section rate in the United States is almost 40%. It’s ridiculous to look at a room with 10 pregnant women and believe that 4 of them need a C-section. Because our medical system is a for profit system we cannot always trust that our doctor or hospital has our best interests at heart. That is one of the many reasons why having a midwife and doula when going through your pregnancy, will help you have the best outcome possible. The United States, a country that is #1 out of 175 countries on spending the most amount of money on healthcare ranks 38th out of 175 countries for infant mortality! There is something wrong here. Statistically, working with a midwife and doula will decrease your chances of needing other medical interventions like C-section or pain management, like an epidural. Epidurals increase the chance of needing a C-section and C-sections increase the chance of both mother and baby experiencing life-threatening complications and death. April shares that when a woman feels supported during her birth she is statistically less likely to need or want medical interventions, thus one of the ways these holistic health practitioners help to decrease infant mortality. Here’s What You’ll Discover: *How to have a positive birth experience *What is a doula *What is a midwife *How women can decrease their chances of having a C-section by creating a supportive team around her and her partner. *What is going on in the mainstream medical system that isn’t working around giving birth and what we can learn from midwives to decrease needing medical interventions like C-section and epidurals. Health AH-HA Moment: Start interviewing and pick your midwife before becoming pregnant. Your midwife will get to know you and help you navigate your whole pregnancy and birth.

He offers a workshop called “Thinking Your Way Into a Thinner Body” so if you would like to attend his workshop for free, or work with him one-on-one, please contact him by visiting: http://www.steveflansbaum.com/new-page/ In this interview, Steve shares his deep insights around what is not working in the $60 billion dollars a year weight loss industry and what he is doing that is effectively helping his clients get to the root cause of their weight issues. In the weight loss industry, Steve shares, there are $60 billion dollars being spent each year and yet only a 3% to 5% success rate! Steve has a 20% success rate with his clients but for those who stick with the program he has a 100% success rate. It’s all about sticking with it. I asked Steve what the difference was between those who stick with it and successfully achieve their weight goals and those who drop off and do not. The difference is humility. It’s willingness to see there is a problem, to face it and ask for help and support. Steve agrees that nutrition, diet, and exercise play a big role in achieving a healthy weight however it is our mindset, our beliefs, the lifestyle we have created for ourselves and the environment we have chosen to live in that steer our habits. Our habits are our continuous behaviors that result in our health. If we want to make permanent health changes we need to start from within so we can affect our environment and our habits to align with our health goals. Steve shares that this isn’t about beating yourself up or killing ourselves at the gym. Having understanding, compassion and love for yourself is one of his first steps. If we would look at how we treat ourselves like how two people treat each other we would realize that we are in an abusive relationship with ourselves! ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: What is really driving the problem with our weight. Steve shares stories of success and why they succeeded where others have not. How to begin to shift your mindset towards achieving your weight loss goals. ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: Weight is a result of a symptom. The symptom is the habits. The habits associated with diet, nutrition and exercise have to do with how our life is set up, meaning our internal and external environment. Our internal environment is made up of our beliefs about ourselves and our life, our mindset and emotions. My habits are a direct response to my environment. To change habits, change the environment so I am not automatically responding in that way. ______________________ Your Challenge: Check out Steve’s website and give him a call.

Roberta is most famous for helping her clients overcome chronic pain and weight problems by teaching self-hypnosis. “There is NO pain processing center within our brain” Roberta shares. She elaborates in the interview how our nervous system processes pain and how we can easily use that when eliminating pain through self-hypnosis. Roberta knew she wanted to help others with hypnosis after she was able to eliminate her arthritis pain completely, and again when she was able to recover from a double knee replacement surgery, using only self-hypnosis to manage the pain. Roberta clears up the misconception that when in trance you are susceptible to taking in any suggestions, like robbing a bank. “I can’t make you rob a bank. The suggestions we take in are those that are in alignment with our morals, values, and ethics.” ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: -The difference between meditation and hypnosis. -The definition of self-hypnosis. -How to become a hypnotherapist. -How to find a good hypnotist in your area. -Hypnosis is for transformation. -There are hypnotic techniques to help children and students learn to focus and eliminate attention issues. ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: Hypnosis is not about clearing your mind so it’s blank.

This show's blog post: http://learntruehealth.com/pain-removal-with-your-mind Subscribe on iTunes: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-itunes Subscribe on Google Play: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-googlemusic ______________________ Pain Removal Ashley’s guest today is Roberta Fernandez, a certified hypnotist. She uses hypnotherapy and NLP to help her clients overcome issues such as chronic pain, surgery recovery, smoking cessation and reducing hunger during dieting. Roberta knew she wanted to help others with hypnosis after she was able to eliminate her arthritis pain completely, and again when she was able to recover from a double knee replacement surgery, using only self-hypnosis to manage the pain. She calculated that with the help of self-hypnosis as her way of pain elimination she was able to avoid taking over 180 capsules of oxycodone and prevent pain medication addiction and side-effects! “There are NO side-effects with hypnosis!” Roberta shares. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: A hypnotist helps you find your own answers and looks to empower you. Hypnosis or trance is a natural state of mind. Self-hypnosis is the tool you can use to enforce positive behaviors and results like weight loss and pain management. Hypnosis focuses on the solution to your problems and not your problems. ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: Your unconscious mind does not understand a negative. If you say “I don’t want to eat cheesecake” your unconscious mind hears “I WANT to eat cheesecake”! ______________________ Your Challenge: Five times a day, take a moment to do this deep breathing technique and use it to reinforce new, positive thoughts. Take a deep belly breath. Hold it in for two seconds. Think your positive thought to yourself Count backwards from 5 to 1 as you exhale, going from loud to soft, in your mind or aloud. Repeat four more times. Each time focusing on your positive thought. For pain removal / management consider the thought “Total Comfort” For hunger cessation consider “Full and satisfied” And to relax, you can simply think “totally relaxed” ______________________ Resource: http://www.FAREHypnosis.com -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "▶ Raw Vegan Athlete - Suzanna McGee - #41 ◀" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj_d7vns6wQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

She uses adventure therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical family systems, Gestalt and play therapy with people of all ages to help them overcome issues such as grief, low self-esteem, stress, anxiety, depression and more. Patti is an expert in emotional health and the mind-body connection. Her path to her current calling took years but she is grateful for the experiences she had before going to graduate school in counselling, because in her maturity and insight she is able to witness what people are going through with compassion. Among older people therapy is still seen as shameful and a last resort, but to the younger generation, seeing a counselor is becoming more and more acceptable. Patti likes to see therapy as preventive, a mental and emotional exercise to keep the mind and emotions healthy, just as physical exercise keeps the body healthy. Everyone goes to the dentist, everyone goes to the optometrist, and everyone could benefit from going to a mental health counselor. When depression is lifted we become more active and social. Ashley and Patti Davis discuss therapy for families and children, including DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, recognized as the gold standard psychological treatment for certain populations. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: The awareness of a problem is a huge first step Medications are like a cast—you put a cast on the broken arm, but eventually, with healing, the cast comes off. The best way to find a therapist is to get recommendations from your friends. DBT, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, is designed to help people change patterns of behavior. ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: Your body will speak when your mind cannot. ______________________ Your Challenge: Picture yourself on your balcony. You’re watching your life in front of you. Take the personalization out of it and see what you notice. Are you in alignment with your values? Why is that feeling showing up? Ask yourself these questions: What is the threat? What am I scared of? What is missing? What am I not seeing or saying? ______________________ Resource: patti.davis@comcast.net 206-321-5003 Look Patti Davis up under Psychology Today: https://therapists.psychologytoday.com/rms/name/Patti_Davis_MA,LMHC_Bellevue_Washington_82161 -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "▶ Raw Vegan Athlete - Suzanna McGee - #41 ◀" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj_d7vns6wQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

In this Episode Ashley and Jennifer discuss the importance of spiritual health. Think about community and realize we have so much to give. Rise to the occasion. Give to others, receive gratefully from others, and think about something other than “me.” We are all one. The book Commitment to Love by Maureen Moss had a very positive effect on Jennifer’s life. It is about the spirit, about perspective, laughter, challenges and trials. When Jennifer was in her 20’s and had just finished her Pilates training, she became very ill. She had pain in her gut, couldn’t walk, was bedridden and on welfare. She was in a spiritual vacuum. Listen to her agonizing description of her life at that time and be prepared for the uplifting moment that changed her life forever. Prayer defines Jennifer’s life. When she was in great pain she prayed “God, please do not let any of this suffering be in vain. Let me be used to bring health and well-being to others.” She says this prayer has been answered on many levels, and she is grateful now that Learn True Health with its listener base is helping her share her experience and spirituality with a broad and receptive audience. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: There are forces of good that lead us to what we need. The Japanese are so healthy because they are involved with and depend upon their community. Mental health has to be affected by other parts of our health: emotional, spiritual and physical. We have so much to share and to give. ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: Whoever created us knows us. ______________________ Your Challenge: For the next 7 days drink one half your body weight (convert pounds to ounces) in water per day, e.g. if you weigh 150 lbs, drink 75 ounces of water per day. For an extra super healthy boost add Dr. Wallach’s plant derived minerals.

She graduated from the University of California at Santa Cruz with a degree in modern dance in 1991. After moving to Seattle she completed her certification as an instructor in 1995. She ran her own Pilates studio for seven years and then was hired by the prestigious Bellevue Club, where she has been instructing individuals and groups for the past 14 years. Jennifer describes Pilates as a whole body workout, a series of exercises that can be tailored to the individual for maximum strength, flexibility and balance. It is a most efficient way of working the body’s core, a complex series of muscles extending beyond the abs. She emphasizes the importance of maintaining mental, emotional, spiritual and physical health, as well the significance of having a sense of community in life. You will be fascinated by Jennifer’s personal journey from illness and fatigue to complete health through Pilates, diet and Dr. Wallach’s supplement recommendations. Ashley asks her what 3 items she would take with her if she had to live on a desert island. You’ll love her answer! ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: Pilates is a potentially challenging whole body workout Optimal body movement is not intuitive; it has to be taught. Discipline is the road to mastership ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: Make your thoughts obey you rather than choosing to obey your thoughts. ______________________ Your Challenge: Always ask yourself: What’s good about this? Look for the positive in life’s challenges. ______________________ Resources: To contact Jen to purchase the supplements she recommends - jennifer@takeyoursupplements.com *Book* Eat Right for Your Blood Type by Peter J.

This show's blog post: http://learntruehealth.com/natural-pain-relief/ Subscribe on iTunes: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-itunes Subscribe on Google Play: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-googlemusic ______________________ Natural Pain Relief – Peggy Protz Peggy Protz returns to Learn True Health to talk more about the Feldenkrais method and natural pain relief with Ashley James. Peggy describes a patient in her 50’s with a frozen shoulder, where her shoulder movements are difficult and painful. When doctors worked with her arm and shoulder, the pain was just too much. Peggy worked with her back rather than her arm and in less than a year her arm became more integrated with her body and she had less pain and a better range of motion. Peggy also treats clients with hip and knee replacements. There’s a lot that can be done to integrate the new joint into the body so that the other hip or knee doesn’t break down. Peggy has always loved dancing and is creative with making movements. This enables her to design body meditation for individuals, making it easy for them to remember their routine, giving them the tools to solve the pain problem when it arises. She describes her Feldenkrais classes and how they differ from her private sessions. Her advice to those with joint pain is to stay in the present moment rather than to think about the cause of their pain. Finally, she wishes her clients would be interested in feeling free in their body, that they make life be more of a dance. Flexibility can make you flexible in life. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: There’s a lot you can do to postpone a hip or knee replacement A Feldenkrais class is quite different from a yoga or pilates class. It’s important to stay in the present moment rather than to worry about how your pain developed. ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: It’s time to try meditation and experience inner peace. ______________________ Your Challenge: Close your eyes and put your full attention on three whole breaths and the small states of quiet between each breath. ______________________ Resources: http://PeggyProtz.com *Book* Feldenkrais: the Busy Person’s Guide to Easier Movement - by Frank Wildman - http://amzn.to/1pR1qye -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "▶ Raw Vegan Athlete - Suzanna McGee - #41 ◀" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj_d7vns6wQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-
