Life Dr. Interview

Here's the playback from my interview on the Conversation Crossroad Radio show!

Life on the Mental Level

We have between 12,000 - 50,000 thoughts per day and the energy behind our thoughts has a profound effect on our bio-psycho-social reality. Conscious thoughts and deep rooted beliefs help create realities in the physical world. At Life Dr. we focus on what is and what's positive! Quantum physics - attempting to explain the unexplainable; the collective unconscious, neuro-science, neuro-chemistry and our neurological system. Let's celebrate our miraculous brain.

Physical Life & the Body

An exploration of home: our amazing body and it's systems. How it works and what it needs. Inner & outer. Our physical environments. What we do in the world ...our actions vs. our intentions and aligning the two. A balance of what we want vs. what we need. Everything tangible. How 'dis-ease' impacts our body causing illness and discomfort. Spotlight on self-care and physically manifesting what we want inside and out!

Life on the Spiritual Level

When we explore the deeper connection between our internal and external environments, we become more conscious of our own power, our personal responsibility and how our lives are improved by acting with intention. Karma, conscious living, and the bond to spirit, the collective unconscious and a higher power. It's an energy and it's POSITIVE!

Life on the Emotional Level

There is a lot of confusion about the difference between our feelings (happy, sad, fearful, angry), and our emotions. Feelings are more universally felt in nature and circumstance, while our emotions are an expression of the personality and what we put out in the world. Emotions are the tension between our inside world and the outside world. They're our 'reactions' towards someone or something, and usually involve our ego.

Exploring our Emotional Life means tuning in to how we are feeling: inside ourselves, within our different environments, as well as with the people we choose to have in our lives. Our commitment to activities and behaviors that provide: a sense of accomplishment, creative outlet, or some sense of purpose or support, enhances our well-being and the well-being of others.

Relationships

The dynamics of a healthy relationship begin with you! When we feel comfortable with who we are, know our value and that we're worthy of love, we love and value others. Let's explore personal, family and professional relationships. What it means to 'trust'. Heart-centered, authentic communication. Needs, boundaries and the importance of listening. Sex vs. sensuality. Inner & outer relationships with ourselves, the global community, and to things, like money.

Natural Gourmet & Nutrition

Everything food! Recipes-for-life, meal planning and preparation, urban gardening, farm-to-table, life-enhancing seasonal foods. The science of healthy whole foods and their nutritional benefits, using food-as-medicine and a bit of history, the use of supplements, greens, natural, organic, wild, grass-fed, raw and more!

Healthy Living

A healthy life is a life in balance and so much more than exercising, eating & sleeping well. Let's explore the connection between our internal and external environments and consciously create a life of passion & purpose. We can learn to be our best-selves and live our best-lives at home, with friends & family, at work and on a global level. It's possible to feel nourished by environments that feel good to us, and to experience health, wellness and abundance in every area of your life. Let's explore healthy living from the inside-out!

Life-Tips and Quotes

My personal Life-Tips and Quotes all in one place! What are some of your favorites? Here is one of mine by someone who has inspired me:

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

~ Marianne Williamson - A Return to Love

Loving Your Self - with Louise Hay

Relationships

"I love and approve of myself exactly as I am." You wouldn't believe how long it took for those words to even enter my awareness; let alone experience feeling that in my body. I had been spoken to, treated and trained to think so little of myself.

Your Relationship to who you are - is the most important relationship you will ever have. Everything stems from you. What you think and how you feel about yourself is reflected to others through your words and behavior. And, people treat you accordingly.

Susan Piver is a writer, teacher and New York Times Best Selling Author. She shares her personal experience of suffering through panic attacks and what she has done to support herself through them.

I received the from a reader the other day:

Q: “I was wondering if a meditation practice can help with panic attacks at all? Or if you know anyone who has suffered from panic attacks and been able to overcome them through meditation?”

A: I know someone who has suffered from panic attacks. Me. I still suffer from them, although far less frequently.

The Science of Life and Balance

Thousands of years ago, Buddha understood that our way of thinking affected our experience in the world. He clarified the need to examine our beliefs - let go of thoughts that didn't serve us and replace them with thinking that supported us instead. Many refer to him as the Enlightened One, but he may very well have been the original Cognitive Therapist! Ayerveda was the first medical model we're aware of. This ancient, Indian science of life, determined that the biography, or story we share about our past can help support or harm our physical biology. Our own personal narrative and the words we use can help support and sustain us, or cause upset and dis-ease!

The Story of Cosmetics (2010)

Healthy Living,

Life Dr. T.V.

Let's explore what's in your bathroom cabinets at home as well as those in your kitchen. Do you know what's in the products you use or where they are even coming from? Unlike the food industry, there are no legal standards for organic or natural personal care products sold in the United States. The FDA doesn't access the ingredients of personal care products.

If you were tested, you'd be surprised by your body's toxicity content from everyday chemicals your using like your shampoos, deodorants, and general cleaning products. Even babies today are being born pre-polluted.

There's a growing body of hazard-based evidence that suggests connections to long-term health concerns like cancer and reproductive problems.

I Am Grateful

Life Dr. T.V.,

Mind,

Spirit

I was recently a passenger in a significant car accident. I'm sure that the other driver's car was totaled and I ended up going to the ER to be checked out. It wasn't a good experience but I am thankful it wasn't a semi-truck. While life can often be better it can always be a whole-lot-worse as well.

What are you most grateful for today?

It's often the simple things that are most important to me. I am grateful for waking up each day, the warm sun on my skin, a home environment I feel good in, and an urban garden that's beginning to nourish me as I nourish it. I have wonderful supportive friends and a beautiful daughter.

The more we focus on what we do have (while setting future goals and taking action towards achieving them) we're in the flow with a positive energy that creates even more to feel grateful for.

Gratitude + Positive thinking + Positive Intention + Positive Action = Positive Results

Be Unstoppable!
