Peggy is an expert in movement and how the quality of your movement directly affects your quality of life. She has been a professional dancer, a pilates instructor, and, since 2002, a Feldenkrais practitioner. Feldenkrais aims to reduce pain or limitations in movement. It is for those who have not had success with traditional physical therapy. Feldenkrais is designed to break up habitual patterns and introduce new ways of functioning so that you’re not tied to your habits. Interestingly it looks at the whole system—the area that hurts may have its source from another part of the body. Feldenkrais helps the body reprogram itself. It is also very effective with neurological challenges, such as MS and recovering from strokes, anything that affects the way you move and the way your brain and muscles are connected to each other Peggy points out that this technique is not a conditioning approach, like yoga or pilates. She trains athletes not to be stronger but to learn to use their bodies more efficiently, to correct habitual movement patterns. Each body is unique with unique patterns. When you rebalance your body, you feel a sense of lightness, you see more options around you and life seems easier. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: If you’re bent over because you’re at a computer all day, the Feldenkrais technique will reset your posture so your body learns to sit correctly. This technique was designed by Moshe Feldenkrais (1904 – 1984), a physicist and engineer, with a black belt in Judo. If you have “cell phone neck,” you’re not alone. Feldenkrais will teach you how to use your body more efficiently. Health AH-HA Moment: We’re walking around stuck in our habits. It’s time to learn new ways for our body to function. ______________________ Your Challenge: List the long and short term skeletal pain that you have had, for instance back, neck or shoulder pain. Consider having a this treatment to experience relief. One session will make a difference. ______________________ Resource: http://PeggyProtz.com -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "▶ Raw Vegan Athlete - Suzanna McGee - #41 ◀" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj_d7vns6wQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

If you’re wondering just exactly what is going on with the ever-present cholesterol debate, tune in and find out the medical facts regarding cholesterol that you may not have heard before. She also talks about prescription pain medications, their side effects, and the herbal alternatives that you might consider. As a naturopath, Dr. Megan spends considerable time with each patient, learning about their diet and exercise habits, emotional state and family history. With this information she can target the underlying factors that are causing the symptoms and give her patients the appropriate treatment. Compare this with a doctor who spends 10 minutes with you before prescribing a drug. She likes to work with other health care providers, benefitting from their individual expertise, all in order to give her patients the best, most comprehensive care. Dr. Megan talks about the contents of her family’s natural first aid kit, a reason in itself to listen to this episode! You will learn about natural treatments for digestive complaints, colds, skin wounds, infections and much more. And lastly, what would she take from a supplement store to aid her on a desert island? A strong anti-microbial agent, a multivitamin, Berberine, and (for a chuckle) a lifetime supply of raw cacao. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: There has been no decrease in cardiovascular disease with the use of statin drugs. You can take turmeric for pain without having the side effects caused when you take ibuprofen If you want to stop that cold from coming on, take elderberry extract There is a 7 minute 25 point physical exam that will reveal a lot about your state of health ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: If you don’t like your current doctor, find another doctor. You decide—you’re in charge. ______________________ Your Challenge: List the prescription drugs you are taking, or have taken, and discover the safe, natural alternatives that could possibly replace them. ______________________ Resource: 7 Keys To Learn True Health That Your Doctor Will Never Teach You [Free Video Series] http://learntrueheatlh.com/go -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "▶ Raw Vegan Athlete - Suzanna McGee - #41 ◀" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj_d7vns6wQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

Also an athlete in competitive sports, Dr. Brooke understands how the body works and how pain can affect every aspect of life. You will also learn the importance of journaling, keeping track of everything you eat and why you ate it. Are you eating something for a reason other than for its nutritive value? Dr. Brooke walks us through a day of her personal vegan diet which includes lots of clean water, protein sources and antioxidant-packed vegetables. It is important that all the foods we eat be organic. When asked what the three items from a supplements store she would take with her to a desert island, her reply was trace minerals, electrolytes and vitamins. There is so much to learn about diet and health in this Learn True Health episode. Follow Dr. Brooke’s advice and feel the phenomenal, positive changes in your health. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: Journaling is key to finding out why your body is distressed If you are a vegan or vegetarian, your intake of protein is top priority in maintaining good health.

This show's blog post: http://learntruehealth.com/sleep-podcast Subscribe on iTunes: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-itunes Subscribe on Google Play: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-googlemusic ______________________ Dr. Megan Saunders Dr. Megan Saunders returns to Learn True Health to discuss a very important part of our health: Sleep. “Sleep is not a luxury, it is a requirement.” The four foundations of health are good nutrition, a healthy emotional state (feeling fulfilled), exercising the body, and getting good sleep. Sometimes stress gets the better of you and keeps you awake. Dr. Megan says you need to process the stress of anger or depression in a way that’s appropriate. It doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t get angry about something, but if it’s an emotion that you are unable to process and it’s keeping you up at night, then that should be addressed. It’s understandable that parents who also have careers, for instance, stay up late because they want personal time to themselves to watch TV or read a book. But if we do that consistently we are stealing snooze time from ourselves. ______________________ Crucial Dr. Megan describes the processes performed by the body while we’re asleep, all of which are crucial to our health when we are awake. People who have difficulty falling asleep have different health issues than those who fall asleep easily but wake after a few hours and can’t fall asleep again. After listening to this podcast you will undoubtedly want to learn more about how you can obtain a restful sleep, night after night. At http:/LearnTrueHealth.com you will find videos on sleep and a new film featuring a yogi demonstrating meditation and breathing techniques that will enhance your night’s rest. ______________________ Here’s What You’ll Discover: There’s a breathing technique that will help put you to sleep. Difficulty falling asleep and difficulty staying asleep have two different, treatable causes. Your cat sleeping next to you in bed may be the reason you can’t sleep. Your sugar intake might be keeping you awake. Eat protein before bedtime ______________________ Health AH-HA Moment: The body creates symptoms because it’s the only language the body can speak. Your Challenge: Follow Dr. Megan’s instructions on how to improve your sleep: clean up your diet, practice her breathing exercises, give up screen time beginning one hour before bedtime, darken your bedroom completely, and remove all allergens from the room. Learn about the herbs and tinctures that promote sleep.

She also has a B.S. in Biological Science with minor degrees in English and Anthropology. No level of education, no number of degrees could have prepared her for her extremely challenging three months as a paramedic in the horrific aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. She describes the magnitude of work, of need, of the devastation she saw. It was like a war zone with looting and police escorts. Imagine seeing a bathtub in a tree, houses piled on top of each other, dead bodies that you must remove from the raging river. Before this experience Dr. Semanie had wanted to become a trauma surgeon, but having seen what she saw, having been so intimately involved, “I just thought that I didn’t want to be the person somebody saw once a year to check in. I wanted to be somebody who could be on the ground, helping, hands-on.” Dr. Semanie describes her student years at Bastyr University. She made some life-changing discoveries that will encourage Learn True Health listeners to reach for the stars in their quest for excellence. Here’s What You’ll Discover: How to make your experiences become a positive predictor of your future calling. How to listen for the whisper so you don’t get hit by the cosmic 2 by 4! What it’s like to witness the aftermath of a natural disaster and how to survive the experience in a positive way. How to listen to the Universe so that life sets you up to succeed. Health AH-HA Moment: The Four Agreements are: 1. Sleep 2. Water 3. Food 4. Emotional Connection with Loved Ones. Your Challenge: You need to be healthy yourself before you can help anyone else. Always listen to your intuition. After hearing Dr. Semanie’s choices, decide what 3 items from a supplements store you would want to have on a tropical desert island. Spend the next week being honest with yourself. Discover what stories you tell yourself that keep you from your intended goals, e.g. “I’ll just have this one chocolate because I need the sugar.” Resource: http://go.learntruehealth.com Subscribe to the Learn True Health Podcast with Ashley James https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEuaLN5H1hUwh3JreRYFmBQ?sub_confirmation=1 Order high-quality Dr. Megan Saunders recommended supplements here: http://TakeYourSupplements.com This show's blog post: http://learntruehealth.com/dr-heidi-semanie Subscribe to the Learn True Health Podcast on iTunes: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-itunes Subscribe to the Learn True Health Podcast on Google Play: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-googlemusic ©2017 - http://www.LearnTrueHealth.com -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Please watch: "▶ Raw Vegan Athlete - Suzanna McGee - #41 ◀" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kj_d7vns6wQ -~-~~-~~~-~~-~-

This show's blog post: http://learntruehealth.com/dr-megan-saunders-holistic-thinking-01 Subscribe on iTunes: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-itunes Subscribe on Google Play: http://bit.ly/learntruehealth-googlemusic Dr. Megan Saunders In this episode of the Learn True Health podcast Dr. Megan Saunders joins us to discuss holistic thinking and how it can affect us as individuals and as businesses. Dr. Megan has a unique perspective as a physician because before she went to medical school she specialized in international business and entrepreneurship. Before she became a physician, Megan, as a business student, saw the long-term consequences that would harm businesses if they didn’t think holistically in the short term. Businesses that would penny pinch around their choices in materials and healthcare for their employees, for example, would see fewer repeat customers and higher employee turnaround. Likewise, businesses that would invest in the healthcare and wellbeing of their employees, quality building materials, and the environment, saw long term growth and sustainability with less employee turnaround. “…That has been my experience as a physician, looking at the long-term consequences of our actions. Having all of your actions being in alignment with the long-term goals of health. And so what is health? Physically, we need to be putting clean food, clean water, clean air into our bodies. We don’t want any sort of toxic exposures…” Dr. Megan goes on to highlight what else we can do as individuals to stay on the path to long-term sustainable health and she brings up some fascinating points! Here’s What You’ll Discover: How holistic medicine can make you more profitable if you are an employer / business owner. What an “obesogen” is and why you need to know about them! A way of thinking that will empower you to gain control of your health. A new way of comparing Medical Doctors to a Naturopathic Doctors. “Organic” doesn’t mean healthy but there is a compelling reason why you should still eat organic anyway. Health AH-HA Moment: Corner-cutting in the short term causes long term health issues. Making small, manageable changes now will make a big difference down the road! Your Challenge: Look at where you are cutting corners to save time or money around your health. Cutting corners in the short term leads to downfalls in the long run. An example of cutting a corner around our health because of time constraints is going out for fast food instead of preparing home cooked organic meals. A solution would be to make a plan that helps you avoid cutting those corners, such as spending Sunday evening cooking your organic meals for the week. For those whose corner-cutting is due to their budget, try researching where you can find affordable organic produce, such as Costco or Grocery Outlet. In the long run, making these simple changes will decrease the toxic load on your body, which leads to disease and has been linked to obesity, cancer and hormone issues.

Introduction To Learn True Health Podcast with Ashley James http://LearnTrueHealth.com Hello, My Name Is Ashley James. Thank you for listening True Health Seekers and welcome to Episode Zero of The Learn True Health Podcast! I am honored to have you listening to our show. Episode 00 is my opportunity to introduce myself, tell you a little bit about the show, and set the stage for what you can expect in upcoming episodes of Learn True Health. If you don’t know me, I’m a huge supporter and believer in holistic health. I have spent many years in what some call the “alternative” health arena. At age 6 I saw my first Naturopathic Doctor and through my whole youth, my family and I were gluten and dairy free, long before it was cool, or easy. I grew up on gross tasting supplements and herbal concoctions, eating fruit instead of fruit loops and carob instead of chocolate. In our household, we drank filtered water, not soda pop. And if a cold was going around we never caught it. I was so healthy following my naturopath’s...
