What a great conversation with this power pack trio Dr. Lucy Smith, Dr. Avery Hoenig and DR. Jamie Wilson Watch the complete episode and learn the other dimensions of Midlife. You will learn : 1) Midlife is a time of significant emotional and psychological development - in short, it matters (even if the psychological aspects haven’t been well-researched yet) 2) The most powerful skill/strategy that we can offer is self-compassion. At a time in life that so many women feel tempted to focus their self-care efforts on self-improvement (botox, diet plans, exercise regimens), it is especially important to develop self-compassion. Everything that self-improvement promises is ultimately accessible through self-compassion. 3) Regardless of what skills or tools you have, the “work” (i.e., reorienting, reckoning, reclaiming, rejoicing) has to be done in community. We believe that the most significant transformation occurs in connection with others.

Reverse your Foot Pain and Improve the Quality of your Life!

Tue, 04 Apr 2023 10:40:27 +0000

April is National Foot Awareness Month. On this show, you will learn cool new ways to take care of your feet from two of the world’s top podiatrists.

I was shocked to learn that 25% of Americans live with bunions. Many people do nothing about this painful condition which is genetic. Bunions and other foot issues interfere with your wellbeing and keep you from walking which has numerous health benefits. Walking improves heart health and blood sugar regulation, reduces joint pain, enhances memory, reduces your risk of Alzheimer’s disease, lowers stress, lowers breast cancer risk, strengthens your body, improves sleep, and boost weight loss and metabolism.

The good news is you can stop the suffering and walk pain free again. On today’s show you’ll learn exactly how to improve the health of your feet from Dr. Sarah Haller and Dr. Brad Schaffer. They have been treating some of the country's most extreme foot-related ailments on TLC's hit series, My Feet Are Killing Me. Today they share how to treat a variety of problems including hammertoes, warts, tumors and one of the most common and painful podiatric conditions – bunions. After years of seeing patients suffer with the painful and progressive deformity, the physicians are taking steps to build broader awareness of bunions and the fact that they can often be treated successfully with the most advanced treatment options.

It's going to be a great show that can help reverse your foot pain and improve the quality of your life!

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. Helen Keller At midlife there is often a strong desire to get unstuck and transform your life and make your next chapter your best chapter. But how do you do it? Transformation is different for everyone, but there are many tools that can help you and people who can inspire you. Today's guest will do both. Our first guest, Ora Nadrich is a pioneering Mindfulness expert who will help you to connect with your higher consciousness, which she says brings us to the divine power that awaits. Instead of busily looking for answers outside of ourselves, and relying on distractions, stimulants, materialism and other external influences, Ora says we have inner resources to become more awake, present and aware. She’ll share how you can tough this mystical place by practicing mindfulness. It's a way to rein in our random thoughts and hold us in present moment awareness. As we stay focused on the present, we’re able to look more deeply into what we’re actually feeling in that moment — and in our awareness, to transcend limited thoughts and beliefs and raise our consciousness. Seven years ago, our second guest Antoinette Lee Toscano recovered from a traumatic brain and spinal cord injury, reversed lupus, improved kidney and gallbladder function, high cholesterol and blood pressure, significantly reduced instances of migraines, and now manages multiple chronic conditions. How did she do it? She received the gift of outdoor recreation when she learned to whitewater kayak. Today, as a 54-year-old all-around adventure sportswoman and sponsored athlete, Antoinette will tell you how to create your new normal and live as big a life as you can envision through the 'New Normal Big Life' process.
