0:00

Most people look for exercise because

0:02

it makes themselves feel better because

0:04

that's the only way they express their

0:06

emotion, energy emotion. So I have to

0:08

teach them other ways they can have expression

0:11

to express that emotion. Because if they

0:13

don't, if a person has too much emotion

0:15

in their body, then what happens at night is

0:17

that that emotion overfloods their brain

0:19

like a toilet being backed up. And what

0:21

happens is this person becomes starts overthinking about

0:24

their life and to numb that overthinking

0:27

wine, drugs, some

0:30

eating can help numb that down

0:32

a little bit. So a person that's

0:34

stuck in a root chakra usually it's

0:36

disconnected from their body. The more you're

0:38

stuck in a blue shark or the more you're disconnected from

0:40

your body, because the more you're working from the

0:42

ego, in my opinion, there's no science

0:44

prove that. The more you work it from the ego

0:46

and the GPS system to keep you

0:49

safe on earth and you lose the connection

0:51

to your highest self into spirit

0:53

and into something bigger than yourself

0:56

to have faith. So you're stuck in fear and

0:58

not faith. And the brain only entertains one

1:00

at a time. You can't have faith and fear.

1:13

Hi. I'm Sahara Rose, and welcome

1:15

back to the highest self podcast, a place

1:17

where you discuss what makes you your soul's highest

1:19

development. If it's your first time listening,

1:22

welcome. I've been doing this podcast for

1:24

over five years and I really

1:26

started it because I believe that

1:28

there was a need and there still is a

1:30

need to make spirituality more

1:32

grounded and relatable and fun

1:34

and diverse. And I started

1:36

this podcast just wishing I had

1:38

a safe space for myself to have these

1:41

kinds of conversations and it has since

1:43

turned into a global movement of over

1:45

thirty five million downloads,

1:48

which I still can't really compete with my mind.

1:50

But the most amazing part are the conversations that

1:52

I've had with people. People like Nate, who you're

1:54

gonna hear from today, and

1:57

all of the wisdom that so many of these

1:59

incredible guests have shared here on

2:01

these episodes. So if you just

2:03

started listening, hello, we got like five

2:05

hundred episodes for you to dive into. And if you hear

2:07

all the time, how excited are you

2:09

to have Nate back on

2:11

the podcast? So I'm gonna keep this

2:13

intro short because the interview is

2:16

two hours long. This

2:18

is literally a master class.

2:20

This is better than a paid master class

2:22

that you would get on adrenal fatigue. Trust

2:25

me, because I've signed up for many of them and this

2:27

is better. This is the most in-depth

2:29

overview of adrenal fatigue. That

2:32

I have ever seen. And I am someone who's

2:34

really looked into this because I have suffered

2:36

from it. I have been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue

2:38

multiple times since I was twenty one years

2:40

old. And if you don't know my story, when I was

2:42

twenty one years old, my body completely

2:45

shut down, went into Para Manopause, and doctors

2:47

said that I would never be able to have children.

2:49

I had zero estrogen, zero testosterone,

2:52

and really bad adrenal fatigue, digestive issues,

2:54

and a whole host of other imbalances,

2:56

which brought me on my healing journey

2:59

to Iraveda, eventually to spirituality, eventually

3:01

to living my dharma, my soul's purpose, and then

3:04

being here with you guys today. So

3:06

I share some of the gems of my journey along

3:08

the way as you're listening to this, but

3:10

I'm so excited to have Nate back on because

3:12

he was on the podcast about six months ago.

3:14

And it has been one of the most shared episodes

3:17

ever. So I found

3:19

Nate on TikTok where I find

3:21

many of the guests because I like to hear

3:23

from people that aren't, like, on every single

3:25

podcast with their perfectly polished pitch

3:28

and story. Like, I like hearing

3:30

from diverse people from different

3:32

walks of life. So if you did not

3:34

hear the first episode with Nate, I

3:36

highly recommend listening to it. It's all

3:38

about why you have digestive and

3:40

hormonal issues from a spiritual cause.

3:42

I will link that episode in the show notes. You can

3:45

even pause this now and then go back

3:47

and listen to it, or I'll just give you a

3:49

little synopsis on his

3:51

story because I think that it gives so much

3:53

more froth and depth

3:56

to the wisdom that he shares. Because he is a genius.

3:58

Like, you're gonna see just his wisdom of

4:01

science and the mind body

4:03

connection and then bringing it

4:05

into this deeper sense of purpose.

4:08

But history did not stir out this way

4:10

at all. So just a little

4:12

cliff notes version of it, and you can

4:14

listen to his him telling his whole story on

4:16

the podcast. But he

4:18

as a child grew up in a very gay and

4:20

written environment right outside of New York

4:23

and he was born as a This

4:25

is his word, so I'm just gonna put this in air quotes,

4:27

a crack baby. His mother

4:29

was addicted to heroin. And he

4:32

had to learn from a very young age

4:34

survival. He, you

4:36

know, experienced a lot of hardship in his

4:38

life. He was even homeless.

4:40

For periods of his life, his dad was

4:42

dealing drugs. And would even get him

4:44

involved in these situations, and

4:47

he needed to learn from a very young

4:49

age how to use his intuition. Otherwise

4:51

he could have been killed. And he

4:54

knew that the only way out of this

4:57

poverty struck an area

4:59

was for him to get into sports

5:01

because those were the only people that he would see

5:03

got scholarships. So he

5:06

every single morning would show up and

5:08

he told his teacher, I'll tell you everything about

5:10

my life and what's going on with my family.

5:12

If you open up the

5:14

school gym early every single morning and I'll be

5:16

there at six AM and you shoot hoops

5:18

with me. So he did that and got

5:20

on the basketball team and then

5:22

eventually got scholarship

5:25

to college to actually play football and

5:28

in college just learned so much

5:30

about exercise and physiology

5:32

and became a trainer, and then from

5:34

becoming a trainer, sir, to realize

5:36

that a lot of our imbalances were

5:38

connected to the mind and connect to

5:40

the fashion, connected to deeper things,

5:42

and then start to get even deeper starting

5:44

with Paul Chegg and realizing how many of our

5:46

physical symptoms actually come from

5:48

childhood trauma. And then he started

5:50

to put together the pieces of his

5:52

life and starting to heal

5:54

the trauma within himself and

5:56

that led to him having greater britality

5:59

and health, but also a deeper

6:01

sense of purpose and falling through with

6:03

his dreams. So he's been

6:05

sharing a lot of readable

6:07

videos all about different

6:10

forms of syndromes that we

6:12

see in our society today from

6:14

adrenal fatigue to fungus

6:16

and Candida and the list goes on,

6:18

but what I love about him the most

6:20

is just where he comes from and the fact that

6:22

he's sharing this in such a unique way

6:25

and you'll just hear his voice and

6:27

his depth, and it's so refreshing for

6:29

me to hear it from someone who really

6:31

needed to learn it for their own

6:33

survival, their own selves, and it

6:36

it to me speaks a million times further

6:38

that he was able to cultivate this wisdom

6:40

despite the challenges that he was

6:42

brought up with despite not having money,

6:44

even being homeless, and

6:46

so many different obstacles that would

6:48

have easily knocked many people off course,

6:50

the fact that he was able to not only

6:52

overcome this, but be able to share this

6:54

wisdom with us today is

6:57

so invaluable and it's people like

6:59

him that I really love to support. I've

7:01

been helping him with writing his book and getting

7:03

his message out there. And he's

7:05

supporting me and getting stronger and

7:07

more fit and even healing

7:09

my digestion. So it is

7:11

always such a beautiful opportunity

7:13

to have him back here on the podcast. He actually

7:15

came down to Miami, specifically to

7:17

record this podcast in person, which

7:19

just means so much and

7:21

you're just gonna get so much from this

7:23

episode. Like, don't even want to give it away

7:25

because he goes into the stages of adrenal

7:27

fatigue, the symptoms related to each one, how to

7:29

heal it, diet, exercise, nutrition,

7:32

shin, but also he opens up

7:35

and shares that it's it's not always a

7:37

hero's journey either. In the first episode,

7:39

he inspired hired thousands of you to

7:41

reach out to him and to

7:44

really see how he has been able to take nothing

7:46

out of something that he shared. That he

7:48

still continued to struggle, especially with

7:50

his own adrenal fatigue and

7:52

social media and, you know,

7:54

going to the next school after the next school.

7:56

So at the end of the episode, he really opens up

7:58

around why he chose to actually move back home

8:00

to New York and the ancestral healing that

8:02

he has been doing and it's just

8:05

such a powerful conversation where we both

8:07

open up a lot about our own journeys, struggling

8:09

with stress and perfectionism and adrenal

8:11

fatigue. While also giving

8:13

really tangible tools. He's just

8:15

such a gem. You're gonna learn so much from

8:17

him and I can't wait to see the

8:19

feedback that this episode gets last

8:21

episode was ninety misses even longer. So

8:23

there's, like, even thirty more minutes of gems

8:25

and and we did it in person too, which

8:27

is just, like, always the best energy

8:29

and I know you're going to love

8:31

it. So even if you don't know what adrenal

8:33

fatigue is, maybe you've heard about it. We

8:35

really start from the ground up and give so

8:37

many tips and tools, you're gonna wanna have your

8:39

notebook for this one. I also recommend

8:41

having like a cup of tea because this is

8:43

really like a portal. This is a

8:45

master class that we're gonna go into. So

8:47

have a cup of tea. Get your

8:49

notepads. You're gonna wanna take some notes. You're probably

8:51

gonna listen to those episodes three times

8:53

just saying, So without further

8:55

ado, let's welcome Nate Ortiz

8:57

back on the Hyatts self podcast. Okay.

9:02

If you come to my house, you're gonna do two

9:04

things. One, you're gonna pet chubby because

9:06

he needs to say hi to every single person. And

9:08

then two, I'm gonna show you my cabinet of

9:10

an Imo Mundi herb because I am proud

9:12

of it. My makuna, my

9:14

rose, my golden chai. It is

9:16

also beautiful and delicious and sacred.

9:18

I am really obsessed with their DUCs, they are

9:20

on a mission to bring ancient remedies

9:22

to the modern world. It is

9:24

founded by Costa Rican herbalist and

9:26

dear friend of mine Adriana Ayales,

9:28

who has been on podcast and taught in rose

9:30

gold goddesses before. They use

9:32

eco friendly packaging and recyclable

9:34

glass or biodegradable bags.

9:37

It's all made in the US with

9:39

certified organic herbs and wild and

9:41

sustainably harvested plants in a vegan

9:43

and gluten free kitchen. And most

9:45

importantly, their products contain

9:47

zero fillers, binders, and flow agents.

9:49

These are pure botanical

9:51

powders. Which honestly

9:53

it's very hard to find on the market.

9:55

So like I mentioned, some of my favorites are the

9:57

Macunna and Rose. They're also delicious

9:59

whenever I'm buying a 478. is what I get for

10:01

10:24

Welcome back, Nate, to the highest self

10:26

podcast. It's so good to have you here and to be

10:28

here in person in Miami. I'm

10:30

super super excited So you much for

10:32

having me. The first podcast that we did together

10:34

was life changing, so

10:36

I'm super excited to be here. Well, the

10:38

first question love to ask you again if your

10:40

answer has changed is what makes

10:42

you your highest self. I think that you're

10:44

gonna ask me that for the second time.

10:46

Okay. So the first time I said being

10:49

honest with myself, for

10:51

this one, staying clear.

10:53

I think a lot of times, in

10:55

today's world, especially they give me

10:57

a lot of distractions where we can lose

10:59

focus on what we're here

11:01

for. So what makes me my high self

11:03

is I'm able to always when I feel like

11:05

I'm getting out of balance to

11:08

readjust and get clear again of why I'm

11:10

doing what I'm doing. And as soon as I get

11:12

clear, Then I start getting rid of distractions,

11:15

then I start basically getting myself back

11:17

to being balanced and staying

11:19

consistent with my dream. So staying clear

11:21

is what makes me myself. I

11:23

love that. So in the last episode, you

11:25

told us about your story, and I think that

11:27

that was the most riveting and

11:29

surprising part for all of us

11:31

because I found you on TikTok because of your

11:33

wisdom and you are truly

11:34

like, I call you like the gangsta

11:36

medical media.

11:37

You know? But your story is

11:39

beautiful and it just is such a

11:41

testament to yourself. And I'm gonna link that

11:43

first episode we did below. So you don't need to tell

11:45

your full story for people

11:47

first hearing you today. Can you tell us

11:49

a little bit about how you got to

11:51

where you are right now and why you have this

11:53

sense for intuition that I feel

11:55

that you are upbringing, helped cultivate

11:57

within you even if it was through trauma?

11:59

Yeah. Hundred percent. So,

12:01

yeah, my upbringing is gonna have a lot

12:03

of correlation with today's podcast. As

12:06

far as the things that come with

12:08

it. Right? Like, I spoke about it in the first

12:10

episode and I made it. It's a heroic

12:12

story, but at the same time, these things can

12:14

have consequences I think and then

12:16

today, I'm gonna be relating a lot to the

12:18

subject because I've been through a lot of it,

12:20

but my story made me who I am today, helped me

12:22

get to where I am today. For the simple

12:24

fact that it helped me stay

12:26

clear and basically consistent and

12:28

persistent towards what I want in my life. I saw

12:30

the worst of the worst I'm like, okay, this is by

12:32

an example, like, where my family's

12:34

at living, you know, in the ghetto or

12:36

going through drug abuse and

12:38

people dying, that's the worst case

12:40

scenario. Right? And I've if I repeat

12:42

those patterns, I'm gonna end up like that.

12:44

So my number one thing was, like,

12:46

okay, I have to do the opposite. If I do

12:48

the opposite, then I know I can

12:50

go where successful people end up

12:52

at. Right? Having a college degree, that

12:54

doesn't mean you're successful, but I'm doing the opposite of

12:56

what my family is doing. But my upbringing helped me

12:58

a lot for the simple fact of it when

13:00

I went through hard times with

13:02

business or school, I

13:04

know that wasn't it wasn't as

13:06

hard as it was for a lot of my

13:08

friends or the people I know,

13:10

because I've been through a lot worse than

13:12

that one situation. Right? So if I failed

13:14

the test or I'm going through business, I'm not

13:16

getting clients or if I'm trying to lose weight and

13:18

I can't lose the weight, I'm dealing with stress. I

13:20

have a very strong tolerance

13:22

towards stress. For the same effect of my upbringing. It

13:24

helped me stay persistent and stay

13:26

consistent towards what I want in my life

13:28

and I never felt down from

13:30

it but it did come with side effects

13:32

too. So one of the things of that

13:34

is after a while when you really come

13:36

from nothing or you come from a stressful

13:38

background, you can kind of be addicted to

13:40

the stress. So one of the things that I

13:42

start to notice in my life is,

13:45

okay, why can't I have a

13:47

good time sitting down throughout the

13:49

day on a day off, and I have this

13:51

urge that I have to do something.

13:53

Right? Or I have this

13:55

consistent hunger that doesn't go away as

13:57

far as for success. And I thought it

13:59

was just because I wanted to be successful, but I

14:01

started to learn a little more about myself I'm

14:03

like, oh, this is actually because it's a

14:05

deep fear that I'm gonna end

14:07

up still being in that

14:09

situation that my family wasn't when I was

14:11

growing up or that going back to the ghetto.

14:13

Right? So when you have that, it can create an

14:15

imbalance in your life. So being

14:17

aware of that made me study

14:19

the things that we're gonna talk about today

14:21

because it was the only way it was the biggest side effect

14:23

of my life. I couldn't enjoy the success.

14:25

I couldn't enjoy anything because I

14:27

was stuck in this fight or

14:29

flight. So I had to learn, like,

14:31

hey, you know, let me find some more information

14:34

about this. I couldn't find information anyway. I had

14:36

to go deep to find information. I'll

14:38

be giving you, like, when I speak about a couple

14:40

of things, I'll refer a lot of things because it's

14:42

pretty hard to find. And I have an

14:44

opinion on why it's hard to find. I think we

14:47

people profit a big time off of

14:49

us being in fight or flight all the time. Yeah.

14:51

That's how it got me here. So my story

14:53

was I had the ability to share my

14:55

story the first time we did a recording.

14:57

So thank you for that. But it got

14:59

me very far in my life. And one of the things the

15:01

reason why my upbringing continues

15:03

to help me is because it helped me stay persistent.

15:05

I know what it's like to go the

15:07

other way, and I don't want to be there. And I

15:09

think a lot of times our childhood

15:12

traumas are the things that make us have

15:14

this hyper aroused nervous

15:16

system. Right? Or even hypo aroused

15:18

depending on how your nervous

15:20

system responds. So the piper out state,

15:22

which I relate to that of not being able to take

15:24

that day off because you're like, what am I supposed to be

15:26

doing right now? What can I do to move the needle

15:28

forward? Because oftentimes when you saw

15:30

your parents, hustle to

15:32

survive, that's all you know.

15:34

So if you never seen an example of

15:36

someone resting or enjoying themselves, of

15:38

course, you're gonna feel like Not only am

15:40

I not worthy of it, but if I do it, I'm gonna

15:42

put my life at risk.

15:44

So of course, we're gonna keep looking

15:46

for these things, and I I even notice it as

15:48

an entrepreneur. Because as an

15:50

entrepreneur, there are countless things for you to

15:52

be stressed about. You know? It could be

15:54

something on your social media. It could be your

15:56

emails. You're this. You're that. It's like we put ourselves

15:58

in these situations in a way to, like,

16:00

heal that very thing that needs to

16:02

be addressed. I think a lot of us who

16:04

maybe are attracted to entrepreneurship have

16:06

these types of crowds. And for some

16:09

people, that has gone on for so long they're in

16:11

the hypo aroused state where

16:13

their nervous systems shut down and

16:15

freeze So something that's

16:17

been in my life and in my awareness

16:19

for over ten years now is this concept of

16:21

adrenal fatigue. So I remember the

16:23

first time in my early twenty I did the

16:25

cortisol saliva tests and they were

16:27

like, you have such

16:29

low levels of cortisol because your

16:31

cortisol levels, your stress hormone has been high for

16:33

so long that your body has down.

16:35

And I was like, well, I don't feel like that.

16:37

Like, I got more to do. Like, I'm in my

16:39

early twenties and, you know, throughout my

16:41

life, I took a couple more of these tests

16:43

and and sometimes it was like, high, and I was, like,

16:45

excited that the cortisol was high because that means

16:47

it's better than the super low. But

16:49

more recently, it was the super low again, which

16:51

I shared with you. I was, like, is

16:53

this horrible? And I hear this because I'm

16:55

someone that maybe people are like, oh, Sahara has

16:57

it figured out. Like, Sahara even has a spiritual

16:59

podcast, but it's like even adrenal fatigue

17:01

is showing up in my field and

17:03

awareness. And I think most people

17:05

probably out there have it. So can you share a

17:07

little bit about what adrenal

17:09

fatigue is? Yes. So, adrenal

17:11

fatigue is in the medical system,

17:13

it's not really respected, and it's

17:15

because the medical if you go

17:17

to a medical doctor, they're

17:19

looking for Aticins or

17:21

Cushing's. Right? If your cortisol levels are

17:23

too high or if your cortisol levels are too

17:25

low. But there's something in

17:27

between. Right? And if you fall in between

17:29

that, then the chances of you being diagnosed

17:32

correctly or looked at like you're crazy is very

17:34

high because usually people that

17:36

diagnose that is gonna be naturopathic

17:38

there's holistic doctors, and more and more

17:41

people are going for that type of

17:43

help. But adrenal fatigue, there's three

17:45

stages. Stage one what we learn is the

17:47

alarm stage. That's when the adrenals are pumping

17:49

down a lot of cortisol and cortisol levels

17:51

are high. When a cortisol is a high, we feel

17:53

great because we have energy all day.

17:55

Cortisol levels get unified of

17:57

flight. And fight a flight works because we're in survival mode.

17:59

So the higher the cortisol levels are, the more

18:01

of the fight a flight that we turn on the

18:04

nervous system, The more the reptilian brain

18:06

is working, the reptilian brain is only cares

18:08

about safety and security. So if you're just starting

18:10

off being an entrepreneur, you have high levels

18:12

of cortisol, it can be a benefit because

18:14

you're doing everything you can. You're gonna push through

18:16

being tired. You're not even gonna feel your

18:18

body hurting because cortisol and

18:20

adrenaline can numb the body. So this

18:22

person feels like they're unstoppable. And

18:24

you usually see that this person is able to

18:26

go to work. This this person is able to

18:28

do overtime on work, and then leave work, go

18:30

home, change, and then go to the gym, and then

18:33

have no problems staying in shape. And then you

18:35

get to stage two, adrenal fatigue. And this

18:37

is the resisting stage. And the

18:39

stage two is when a person's

18:41

circadian rhythm switches. So

18:44

normally during the day, especially during the

18:46

morning, your cortisol levels go up. And

18:48

then throughout the day, they kinda come

18:50

down. Fight a fight comes down the

18:52

parasympathetic nervous system turns on.

18:54

And this is when melatonin levels come

18:56

up. And this is for rest and digest the

18:58

parasympathetic nervous system. What happens

19:00

is people have when

19:02

cortisol levels are very high, very, very, very, very,

19:04

very, then it starts to come to a point where the

19:06

cortisol levels are not being produced enough during the

19:08

morning. So now this person has a hard time

19:10

getting out of bed They have a hard time

19:12

even they can sleep for eight hours and feel

19:14

as if they didn't get any sleep that

19:16

night. It's really hard for them to get their

19:18

day going. They can't start the day

19:20

without caffeine or stimulant. And what

19:22

I see with clients

19:24

is when I start doing paperwork

19:26

with them, you'll first start seeing a

19:28

cup of coffee, then two cups of

19:30

coffee, then it can go up to like three to five cups

19:32

of coffee in stage two.

19:34

Just to get their day started because coffee turns

19:36

on the sympathetic nervous system and your

19:38

cortisol levels. So then you have

19:40

doing a nighttime their

19:42

cortisol levels are usually up and their melatonin levels are down.

19:45

So they consider themselves to be night

19:47

hours or they can't go to sleep by night. They're up

19:49

on night. And

19:51

what happens usually with that person is by

19:53

the time nighttime comes and they can't go to sleep,

19:55

they go to sleep late, and then

19:57

they start to cycle all over again. And

19:59

it's a nasty cycle. And then you get stage number three, which is

20:01

a crash, which is usually when a

20:04

person is not producing enough cortisol throughout

20:06

the day. And when a person's not

20:08

doing that, it comes with a lot, and

20:10

you can still get tested and still

20:12

not come back with Addison's disease.

20:14

So you'll start

20:16

having many, many different issues, and I could break

20:18

down all the symptoms because the adrenal

20:20

fatigue symptoms are all relatable

20:22

for each stage, but they get worse.

20:24

They turn on and they give you more

20:26

pain. Anything in life that is anytime the

20:28

nervous system is trying to indicate something to you and trying to

20:30

teach you something, the more you ignore it, we bring

20:33

more pain. Is sometimes it's

20:35

pain that comes as a consequence

20:37

of our luck in life. Right? Like,

20:39

you can't catch a break in life. So

20:41

it may not even be with your body. It can also be with your

20:44

relationships with the universe on even attracting

20:46

things towards you. So it

20:48

goes deep. So that's adrenal

20:50

fatigue and there's many different things and it

20:52

gets deep because when I work

20:54

with a client and what I see with

20:56

people, is that you have to understand when you have any stage of adrenal fatigue, you

20:58

have too much cortisol level of production, too much

21:00

stress. Usually, you see people that

21:02

are resistant towards the fact

21:05

of hearing that they have too much stress, especially

21:07

if they're go getter. So what happens is

21:09

too much stress, a

21:11

person thinks about, well, when I was in my

21:13

twenties, I never had this problem. When I was

21:15

in my early twenties or even

21:17

early thirties that had never had this

21:19

problem. So trying to get this person to recognize

21:21

that their tooth stress is very difficult because

21:23

they usually come back with good lab

21:25

tests. Number two, you have to understand, when you turn

21:27

on the cortisol levels to be high, the

21:29

more stress you are, the more you're working from

21:31

the root chakra. The more you work from the

21:33

roof shock or the less energy that

21:36

goes up to the highest shock or the seventh

21:38

shocker. So usually you find these

21:40

people stuck and

21:42

thinking and subconsciously not

21:44

having a belief or an understanding that

21:46

there's something bigger out there to help them on their

21:48

journey. So any little thing that comes as a

21:50

threat towards their safety and security, they're

21:53

gonna go crazy, be not crazy, but

21:55

they're gonna put more stress on themselves

21:57

because they think they have to control

21:59

everything, even situations they have no

22:01

control over. So the

22:03

adrenals, which produce cortisol

22:05

and adrenaline, attached to the

22:07

roof chakra, but also your

22:09

sacroshocker and your solar plex. It's

22:11

the one gland that connects to

22:13

all three. So then you'll start

22:15

seeing reproductive issues,

22:17

digestive issues. And for people

22:19

that have a hard time understanding that,

22:21

on a more spiritual side, I can

22:23

break it down scientifically. Right? Because

22:26

cortisol levels produce fight a fight a fight

22:28

a fight turns off

22:30

digestion. So there goes your solar plex.

22:32

The more fight a fight you're in, you go

22:34

into something called progesterone

22:36

steel, where your body steals

22:38

nutrition from vitamin b

22:41

five and cholesterol that

22:43

feeds your reproductive hormones, your sex

22:45

hormones. It steals that to feed

22:47

cortisol instead to support cortisol. So then

22:49

you'll start having imbalances with

22:52

procreation. So that's shocker too.

22:54

And then shocker one is safety and security. This

22:56

person is gonna have a lot of issues with safety

22:58

and security. Any threat, safety,

23:00

security, and tribe, family issues,

23:02

any threat to either one of those, or there's

23:04

gonna be in in some type

23:06

of imbalance. And I can go I'm gonna go deep on that.

23:08

Well, I wanna I wanna stop you right there because

23:10

that was my exact lived

23:12

experience in my early twenties

23:14

of I got really

23:16

deep into doing Ashhtanga yoga. So three

23:18

hours a day, I was practicing this very intense

23:20

form of yoga. I was a Rob vegan.

23:23

I was in a really stressful period of

23:25

my life if I didn't know what my purpose was

23:27

and I didn't know my job was gonna be,

23:29

then I was also fighting with

23:31

my fan Melissa, that root chalker stuff and them saying, you need to

23:33

get a job for money. And I

23:35

stopped producing any hormones, so

23:37

I stopped getting my period for two

23:39

years. And then when I got blood

23:41

tests said you've gone into Para menopause because you're no longer

23:43

producing any estrogen and

23:45

testosterone, so you're never going to be able to

23:47

have a child And then that is was related to me

23:49

getting osteoporosis earlier in

23:52

life. So, like, everything you're saying right

23:54

there, it's just like reminding me

23:56

that the cortisol was really

23:59

at the root of a lot of this especially

24:01

from more of like a scientific level

24:03

as well as the spiritual level

24:05

of I had a root chakra and balance of I didn't

24:07

feel safe. I felt like I needed to, like,

24:09

do something or go somewhere figure it out to

24:12

survive. Which then linked to my sacral

24:14

of not feeling in my feminine, which

24:16

was related to not getting my period, and I

24:18

also had horrible digestive issues. Like,

24:20

I couldn't eat food without being in so much

24:23

pain, which made me not wanna eat food. Because I'm like, I

24:25

don't wanna eat and like be, like, on

24:27

the couch, like, hurling for so

24:29

long, and that made me more afraid of food, shame

24:31

me more controlling, shame me more obsessed

24:33

with the Rahvegan thing, and it just

24:35

kept linking on. Then I couldn't

24:37

focus on the heart chakra, the

24:39

throat chakra, the third eye, the

24:41

crown. I had to just focus on what would

24:43

heal myself. So, like, everything you're

24:45

saying has been my

24:47

experience, and I feel so many people

24:49

listening to this right now, especially woman,

24:51

especially I'm noticing in the millennial, and

24:53

I'm gonna assume in the Gen Z generation as

24:55

well because we are the generation that

24:59

has grown up with screens and Internet

25:01

and social media and things to do and like

25:03

always feeling like you're running behind as

25:05

well as diet trends

25:07

and obsession with thinness and all of

25:09

those things. So I think what you're speaking

25:11

into this generation, this is our

25:13

work to resolve it, so it doesn't continue

25:15

to pass on. One hundred percent.

25:18

And most of my clients are women.

25:20

And you're starting to see women in their thirties

25:22

go through menopause. I got

25:24

them as my clients. Right? I had a client

25:26

that couldn't have a period for

25:28

fourteen years since she was fourteen years old.

25:30

Wow. And we got her her first

25:32

period and she's trying to work on having child now

25:34

because of too much stress. Right?

25:36

And the thing is is when the person

25:39

so the childhood trauma is the first

25:41

place I will look for. The

25:43

reason why is because childhood

25:45

trauma is subconscious. And

25:47

most of the things we do today, we know

25:49

better, we know we should change. But

25:51

subconsciously, Changing

25:53

anything to be subconscious takes time,

25:55

and it takes repetition. There's two ways you

25:57

get into the subconscious. Repetition

26:00

So a trauma that is subconscious, you have to

26:02

handle in the four layers of energy is what

26:04

I call it. You have to deal with the muscular system.

26:06

You have to deal with the nerves.

26:08

The nervous system, you have to deal with the organ and

26:11

gland, and then you have to dig into the

26:13

emotion, energy emotion into

26:15

that that zone. I call

26:17

it zones. Because it's easier for me to

26:19

picture in my in my brain. So whenever

26:21

you we hear the word zone, you're talking

26:23

about chukras. Yes. Exactly.

26:25

Because I have very I have a lot of respect

26:27

for shockers and where it came from, and and

26:29

it it's a hundred percent. They will be

26:31

way ahead of their time. Right?

26:33

And but today, some people get Susan has

26:36

chocolate, they get a misunderstanding

26:38

of what it is. And it is. It it it's

26:40

the zones is, I break it down scientifically

26:42

and then the expression or the consciousness at what that

26:44

state of that zone is that

26:47

expresses where that shocker is at. Right?

26:49

The conclusion of it is the shocker.

26:51

But to break it down scientific to help people who don't

26:53

really can't really get into that. I hope them,

26:55

for an example, you have, let's say,

26:58

the root for an example. You have the

27:00

adrenals that's the organic gland. The

27:02

muscles that are responsible for that are your

27:04

legs. Okay? So one of the

27:06

emotion standpoint for that is standing

27:08

up for yourself. Right?

27:10

So if a person has a root shock

27:12

And legs were always my weakest muscle.

27:14

Exactly. That's what you're gonna see. Now if a

27:16

person wants to know that scientifically, why Well,

27:18

the legs would be the last place a person stores fat

27:20

on, the more cortisol levels they're

27:23

producing because the higher the

27:25

cortisol levels the more likely the fat around

27:27

the organs is gonna take the extra fat.

27:29

Which is why they tend to have more apple

27:31

shaped. Exactly. There you go.

27:33

Mhmm. So Another thing is

27:35

from one to eight, you're going through the consciousness

27:37

of standing up yourself. You're learning the

27:39

consciousness of what it's like. You're going through the

27:41

room, chakra. Who's my family? Who

27:43

cannot trust? How do I survive? What is safe?

27:45

What isn't safe? How do I walk? And how do I

27:47

stand up for myself? So the

27:49

emotion that you'll find a lot with people to

27:51

have a dysfunction with the blue chakra is I look for

27:53

the legs being tight, levels of anxiety,

27:55

or their nervous system show me anxiety.

27:58

Right? So I'll do a couple of muscle testing

28:00

with them, and then I look for their

28:03

beliefs. One of a test that you can do with someone that

28:05

has really, really bad issues would

28:07

be in two it stuck in

28:09

fight or flight, is they stress

28:11

about money. So consciously money is an issue.

28:13

They can have money in their account, but

28:15

they still work as if they're broke and they live a life

28:17

as if they're broke. Right?

28:19

Or they have bad spending

28:21

habits. So if we have One

28:23

of the exercise I'd like to do is take a piece of paper, draw a line,

28:25

write down the middle, on the left, how much money

28:27

is coming out, on the right, how much money is coming

28:29

in. Most of the time you find people have more money

28:31

coming out than going or most

28:33

people never even look at their bank account because it's

28:35

a trigger money, safety, security,

28:37

or triggers for people to have a stuck and fight a

28:39

fight in a root chakra. So a dream

28:42

fatigue work is the

28:44

consciousness, the scientific consciousness,

28:46

or the expression of what we understand

28:48

when the body has a hormonal imbalance.

28:50

Of the root chock grow. So when you look at

28:52

it, you can't help this person unless you go

28:54

to all four. And I'm gonna be sharing a lot

28:56

of different things for the audience

28:59

today to help them get through it and and

29:01

and recognize it more. And then you have number

29:03

three. So number one, you have the

29:05

adrenals cortisol levels being out of

29:07

balance. Number two, you have the chakra

29:09

itself. Number three, you have something called

29:11

the reptilian brain. The you have three

29:13

parts of the brain. Reptilium brain,

29:16

emotional brain, intellectual. Okay?

29:19

Scientifically, reptilium brain is still considered the beat of

29:21

reptilium brain. But the science is called the limbic

29:23

system, the limbic brain, and then the

29:25

neocortex. So the more stressed a

29:27

person is, the more their

29:29

consciousness is going to be pulling from the reptilian brain.

29:31

The reptilian brain is gonna be activated. So

29:33

the chance of this person having

29:35

emotional issues in relationships

29:37

or being present in relationship is gonna be very

29:40

hot. The chance of this person being

29:42

intellectual, that's like the last stage I'd

29:44

like to make this example. Imagine you have

29:46

a house You have a basement, first

29:48

floor, second floor. The first floor is

29:50

where everything that you depend on to

29:52

live in the house safely is that your

29:54

AC, your food, your they'll control

29:56

your heater. Everything is in the

29:58

basement. The first floor is a

30:00

stove, a TV, and your partner, and

30:02

your kids. The second floor is

30:04

a room that you have with a nice desk with a

30:06

view of outside. It looks beautiful.

30:08

This is where you journal. This is where you create

30:10

your content. This is where you create ideas, become

30:13

creative. If there's a flood in the basement,

30:15

a person is gonna be spending most of the time

30:17

in the basement, fixing the flood because

30:19

it's going to wreck the safety of that

30:22

house. By the come to first floor,

30:24

they're not thinking about becoming creative

30:26

and going to hang out upstairs. They're most likely

30:29

starving because they're skipping meals.

30:31

So by the time they finally get their

30:34

meals and finally do that, then

30:36

the time that they can spend with somebody they

30:38

barely even have energy for. So they

30:40

can feel irritated because they didn't couldn't

30:42

do anything for I, but they're

30:44

spending time with we. And then usually

30:46

they sit on the couch, and they have

30:48

some type of compulsive behavior with overeating

30:50

or some type of addiction. You're gonna

30:52

find addiction in adren fatigue hand

30:55

in hand. So anytime I know someone has a journey

30:57

for take a toothbrush, I'm like, what's your addiction?

30:59

Work can be an addiction. Alcohol can be

31:01

addiction. Over eating food. Chocolate.

31:03

Okay. Right? And then after doing

31:05

478, they feel guilty. So then they'll

31:07

go, oh, man, I gotta go to a sec. I

31:09

gotta create they feel guilty and they think

31:11

about how they should be stares

31:13

creating something for their life to change this pattern.

31:15

What I'm trying to say is when

31:17

a person is stuck in reptilian brain,

31:19

that's the basement. Then the second floor,

31:21

they barely have time for emotional. So

31:24

if they can have a partner that's complaining

31:26

that they're not getting time or they can feel

31:28

guilty because they're not they're being

31:30

present with their kids or whatever the case or

31:32

their friendships to the point where by the

31:34

time they're doing it, they're just playing catch up. They skip meals.

31:36

So a person with gym fatigue is gonna be

31:38

skipping meals. And they're gonna be pushing themselves even more. You're gonna find

31:40

people go to the gym. One of the things

31:42

I have clients do, I have to understand, teach

31:44

them, you can't strum training

31:46

right now. Five times a

31:48

week. What is strength training? What is

31:50

training a muscle becoming catabolic?

31:52

What does cortisol do? It makes your

31:54

body catabolic. It breaks down muscle tissue. It breaks

31:56

down tissue. Breaking down is what catabolic

31:59

means. Antibiotic means building.

32:01

Sleeping and resting is anabolic,

32:03

working out and running and and

32:05

exercises is catabolic. If a person

32:07

is already catabolic and we make them go

32:09

to the gym, and we have them in a gym and they're

32:11

pushing themselves, they become more catabolic,

32:14

which makes them more stress. So then they

32:16

start to cycle all over, all over again, most

32:18

people look for exercise because it makes themselves

32:20

feel better because that's the

32:22

only way they express their e

32:24

motion and energy and emotion. So I have to teach them other ways

32:26

they can have expression to

32:29

express that emotion. Because if they

32:31

don't, if a person has too much emotion

32:33

in their body, Then what happens at night is that

32:35

that emotion over floods their brain

32:37

like a toilet being backed up. And

32:39

what happens is this person being starts

32:41

overthinking about their life. And

32:43

to numb that overthinking, wine,

32:47

drugs, some eating can help

32:49

numb that down a little bit. So a person that's

32:51

stuck in a root shocker usually

32:53

is disconnected from their body. The

32:55

more you're stuck in a root shocker, the more you're

32:57

disconnected from your body. Because the

32:59

more you're working from the ego, in my

33:01

opinion, there's no science prove that. But

33:03

the more you're working from the ego in

33:05

the GPS system to keep you safe

33:07

on earth. And you lose the connection

33:09

to your highest self and to

33:11

spirit and and to something bigger

33:13

than yourself to have faith. So you're

33:15

stuck in fear and not faith. And the

33:17

brain only entertains one at a time. You can't

33:19

have faith and fear. So And

33:21

I wanna make a note on this, what you just said

33:23

about root chakra because I think it's really important

33:25

to note the differentiation between

33:27

a balanced and imbalanced root

33:30

or zone one. Because a lot of times we think, oh,

33:32

then spirituality must be to be disconnected from

33:35

my body. You know, if it's the upper chakras, then it

33:37

should be, I should be, like, only

33:40

meditating, only hanging out in the

33:42

attic. And it's not that it's We

33:44

don't want to have the shadow of the root chakra,

33:47

which is to worry about survival,

33:49

to worry about safety, the reaction,

33:51

the anger, anger at every other

33:53

person and not at you, and and it's like

33:55

that's really coming from the ego, which is also connected

33:57

to solar plexus. But when I think of

33:59

that energy, it's very different than the

34:01

energy of like a grounded creature. Oh, wow.

34:03

Which is someone who's like really

34:05

in their body and feeling things and connected

34:07

to earth and connected to dance and movement.

34:09

And they see sometimes people lump the

34:11

two of them together. So they

34:13

think, oh, root is worse than third eye. Third eye

34:15

is where it's at. And then they try to

34:17

disconnect themselves from the body

34:20

because they think that, oh, if you're

34:22

focused on the body that's not

34:24

spiritual? No. And thank you for bringing that

34:26

up. Absolutely not. It is when

34:28

the adrenals are having adrenal

34:30

fatigue and has a dis function that

34:32

correlates and will make an unbalanced

34:34

root shocker. It's very important to

34:36

have your root shocker. When you're balancing your

34:38

root shocker, then you're able to work through the

34:40

other chakras in a balanced manner. Mhmm. Some people meditate or some people

34:43

have a hard time using their imagination

34:45

because they're so stuck. In

34:48

that subconsciously. So, no. You want, in my opinion,

34:50

the way I envision it is the

34:52

roof chakra keeps you on earth. Right? Does

34:54

the benefit happen to fight a fight?

34:57

Right? It saves all life. It gets it gets

34:59

things done. But being stuck there all

35:01

the time, it's kind of like you

35:03

lose connection from what's

35:05

above you. Right? Which is, I like to

35:08

say, universe, the universe.

35:10

Right? You can get some people who get so

35:12

out of balance and say, to whooshock her the

35:14

ego you wanna destroy forever and you

35:16

wanna stay here. I work with a lot of

35:18

those clients too. And when they're stuck in

35:20

the spiritual and have no balance in

35:23

a whooshock her, You can find people not

35:25

really be there for

35:27

their responsibilities, their bills, their

35:29

relationship with their children,

35:31

And one thing that I've learned from my mentor is that

35:34

you have three different clients and one of the

35:36

clients will be the

35:38

super spiritual where they

35:40

think when you're talking, they're looking at you and

35:42

waiting for you to speak to

35:44

basically show you how wrong you were and

35:46

to show you how smart they are. But usually the

35:48

more spiritual person is in no

35:50

connection to the root chakra, the more likely they're

35:52

gonna have money issues -- Mhmm. -- with

35:54

being broke.

35:55

Go to Venice

35:58

Beach. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly.

36:00

Exactly. So I remember I had

36:02

this conversation with this one client She

36:04

was telling me that she had a spiritual coach. And I have no problem when I

36:06

work with a client that they have coaches or whatever because

36:08

most of my clients are gonna have a chiropractor, a

36:12

therapist, And I'm like, okay. Awesome. And what she was

36:14

doing with me is when

36:16

I was speaking about something, she would turn

36:18

down everything. She'll send me emails.

36:22

And she'll see me copy and paste emails from her spiritual coach

36:24

on what they're saying. And then she could chat with

36:26

me in a group chat with a spiritual

36:28

coach. And I'm a very respectful

36:30

guy. I I like to avoid conflict.

36:32

He was basically telling her

36:34

everything opposite, like in nutrition,

36:37

sleeping, everything. And I was like, okay. Look. You know, maybe you

36:39

should go in your journey and and go that

36:41

way. But long story short, I told I

36:43

get these all the time, these clients to have these

36:45

coaches. I told her, in my

36:47

mind, I didn't wanna say anything I wrote in my

36:49

notes. Just, you know, be aware of that.

36:51

And then she end up telling me that she had

36:53

to fire him because he kept on

36:56

coming. And then she got another one was a woman.

36:58

She kept on coming. And they

37:00

were basically overcharged her and

37:02

then started borrowing money and things like that because they were having

37:04

financial issues. So at first, I didn't

37:06

believe my mentor when you told me that. I'm like, oh, I gotta see that,

37:08

but then I started to see the cycle, and that happened, like,

37:10

three years

37:12

ago. So as I start seeing that cycle, I became aware of it because --

37:14

Yeah. -- it's

37:14

important. Embodiment. If the embodiment is not

37:17

there, then, yeah, you have all

37:19

these ideas that you talk about in your head, but you're not living

37:21

it. And that's why, to me, like,

37:23

working out is a spiritual practice because

37:25

I'm feeling my muscles and

37:27

it working together I'm creating more groundedness and

37:29

connection to the earth, which is my

37:32

body, which is the

37:34

collective and and seeing it as

37:36

the alt or not this thing that's

37:38

outside of me, but seeing myself as

37:40

that. However, I also

37:42

remember I had a friend who I was traveling

37:44

with for some time, and she was like bikini

37:46

body builder competitor. She was only body.

37:48

There was no all she could think about is,

37:50

okay, when am I gonna eat in this and there's, like,

37:53

when we were traveling, it was like everything revolved around her

37:55

food schedule. You know, so it's like the importance

37:57

of like, yes, be in your body and know

38:00

that you're not your body. Like, cultivate personality

38:02

and know you're not your personality. Work on your

38:04

mind and you're also not your mind and have spirit and

38:06

also know you're a human and like the duality

38:08

of all of it. Yeah.

38:10

Balance. Mhmm. I tell people all the time the hardest thing for me

38:12

to do is I have to sell balance to people.

38:14

Mhmm. You know, people come to me like, oh,

38:16

what do you think about this one diet?

38:18

What do you think about that one diet? Is it working for you? Well, it's confusing. I

38:20

mean, I've asked you about so many. I'm like, what do

38:22

you think of that? This person says about form, even just

38:24

of form -- Yeah. -- exercising people

38:28

have so many different, you know, contradicting facts.

38:30

I think that contributes to our adrenal

38:32

fatigue because we're trying to be healthy. We're

38:34

do one documentary

38:36

says go vegan, and this one says go paleo,

38:38

and this one says macrobiotic, and now it says Iravedic,

38:40

and we're like, what do we do?

38:43

And then it's people say, listen to your

38:45

body and it's like, well, you can convince your body of anything. You

38:47

can't placebo effect. Right? Exactly. One of the things I

38:49

do with a client is if they're having

38:51

that and they're feeling with

38:53

anything, with diet, with anything I say,

38:55

try it and document it. Mhmm. So

38:57

for an example, if you're trying different

38:59

diets, okay, how's your bowel movements?

39:01

How's your sleep? How's your skin? How's your energy? How's

39:03

your mood? How's your stress? And then usually,

39:06

you'll see people when they start

39:08

documenting it, they'll have a belief that this is the best

39:10

diet in the world. But

39:12

then they start seeing differently when they document

39:13

it. Right. And and it takes a few months too.

39:15

One hundred percent. That, like, for me, raw

39:17

vegan was great for the first few months because

39:19

I had all this toxicity in my body

39:21

that I needed that. And then after a few months, it wasn't. And that's what makes you

39:23

awesome because you're able to understand

39:26

that. Right? And, you know, a lot it's

39:29

all about us becoming a teacher of ourselves. Right? I can't

39:31

tell you what's best for you and say like, you

39:34

gotta ignore yourself. That's why the the worst thing

39:36

you could do is wrap someone from

39:38

their experience. That's the last thing I

39:40

ever wanna do. So if I see a

39:42

person that really wants to try this one

39:44

thing, I'm like try it. And they're like, well, this

39:46

person said this and that person

39:48

said that. When you get two people that go contradict each

39:50

other, the best thing you need to do is try both

39:52

of them and see what works for you because one

39:54

works for a group of people that may have toxins

39:56

in their body that nose I

39:58

mean, the plant base was great for them.

40:00

Another may have issues when it

40:02

comes down to dysbiosis in their gut and

40:04

having digestive issues and noticed that any

40:06

plant food is making them bloated. So going carnivore for

40:09

a little bit, it's gonna help them balance

40:11

out the seabull that balance the small

40:13

bacterial overgrowth is gonna die off, dysbiosis

40:15

is gonna die off. And both of

40:17

them have but Most you're gonna see people come out on

40:19

YouTube or come out and admit that they

40:21

had to go back and

40:24

have me they had to have, you

40:26

know, go back and have plants. And not a lot

40:28

of people are actually admitting it because they

40:30

created a brand behind it,

40:32

but long story short, That's another thing,

40:34

telling yourself the truth, being honest with yourself

40:36

and being clear are two things

40:38

that are very important for us to navigate when

40:40

there's a bunch of different confusion

40:42

and distractions. Yes. So I wanna talk about body types and

40:44

adrenal fatigue because I have read

40:46

that there's an adrenal body

40:48

type and

40:50

that looks like more of an apple shaped body you

40:52

tend to put on not just fat,

40:54

but even have like a sturdiness around

40:56

your waist area. So Would

40:59

you say most people who have adrenal

41:01

fatigue? We're like born with this body type

41:03

or it develops. Can you be pear shaped

41:05

and have adrenal fatigue? It's a great question.

41:07

So adrenal fatigue, and you can learn this

41:09

in the book, adrenal fatigue by James

41:12

l Wilson, he has the best book on

41:14

that. Adrenal fatigue can start

41:16

at birth. It can start when

41:18

you're in a womb. It can if your mother has adrenal fatigue, you're gonna

41:20

be born with weak adrenals.

41:22

And then when you're a child,

41:26

you can get diagnosis, attention disorder, or ADHD, because the

41:29

nervous system is being overwhelmed. So

41:31

trying to get me to sit down,

41:33

my nervous system is overwhelmed. We

41:36

overlook a lot of things. Number one, we look over overlook the nutrition

41:38

that most people are taking in. We

41:40

overlook the lights. The lights hitting

41:43

our skin creates cortisol levels that go

41:45

up. EMF. Right? We overlook a lot of things. So if

41:47

you have a child that's not sleeping that has weaker

41:50

adreners from birth, then has lights

41:52

around them, and then has to sit in the class for eight

41:54

hours, and you can't you can't get this child

41:56

to sit down. That's not even including

41:58

the toxins and the water and the

42:00

air, etcetera. They're gonna get diagnosed with attention disorder, right, or

42:02

ADHD. So a person

42:04

can be born with weak adrenals. The adrenal

42:08

body when the body's under a lot of stress, here's what

42:10

happens. The body, it is called, they don't

42:12

believe in adrenal fatigue as a

42:14

term. So one thing you'll learn is

42:16

that it's hypo adrenal.

42:18

Right? Hypo, it means low

42:20

adrenal means adrenals. The production

42:22

of the adrenals producing

42:24

enough cortisol is low. So what happens

42:27

is you'll find people start having the first thing I see,

42:29

blood glucose issues, blood sugar issues.

42:31

So if a person has blood sugar

42:33

issues, that means that What's

42:36

responsible for blood sugar? Insulin?

42:38

What's responsible for so the

42:40

more stressed a person is, your body

42:42

goes into your hypothalamus

42:44

pituitary or your HPA. Gets a

42:46

signal from the nervous system that they're

42:48

stressed. It can be stressed from the environment.

42:50

It can be stressed from your digestive tract.

42:52

It can be stressed from a virus. Those are the top

42:54

three that you use. It see, when

42:56

the body gets that signal, the

42:58

hypothalamus communicates with the pituitary and

43:00

adrenals to have an end product

43:02

of cortisol and adrenaline. When that

43:04

is produced, If a person

43:06

doesn't have sugar in front of them present, the

43:08

body will produce its own blood sugar

43:10

through gluconeogenesis.

43:12

Your liver has stored

43:14

glycogen. They will pull that glycogen

43:16

out. Now when I went to school, we also

43:18

learned the more stressed a person is and

43:20

the less glycogen they have, they can start turning, converting

43:22

muscles from their arms in their butt, in

43:24

their legs into You can break down

43:26

muscle tissue and protein into glucose

43:28

as well. Don't

43:30

wanna go that deep, but I just want to throw that out there. So if a

43:32

person is pulling out blood sugar from their

43:34

liver, now blood sugar is

43:36

present, that means insulin has to be present.

43:39

So then insulin comes in, takes the blood

43:41

sugar out, and then a person starts having

43:43

something called hypoglycemia or

43:46

become hypoglycemic. And then they start to process

43:48

all over again. How can they naturally bring up their blood? Which is different than

43:50

diabetes. You know, because I think

43:52

sometimes you go to a regular

43:55

and you're like, check my blood sugar. Like, oh, it's normal because

43:57

they're only looking at the extremes.

43:59

Right? Yes. And there's something that I came

44:01

across called the bell curve where If

44:03

a person does not get diagnosed, I mean,

44:06

doesn't hit the specific numbers

44:08

that they're looking for to be diagnosed,

44:10

they're left

44:12

with syndromes. That's a adrenal fatigue. They're left with syndromes because they're not they're not

44:14

cushioned since and they don't have Addisense. You're

44:16

left in between. You're left

44:18

with syndromes. So, yes, it's

44:20

different when you go in,

44:22

but in the book, adrenal fatigue by

44:24

James L. Wilson, who is a medical doctor and

44:26

did it for over twenty five years. What he

44:28

explains in a book is that diabetes? You

44:30

gotta see which one came first? Is it diabetes or

44:32

is it the I mean, the

44:34

adrenal is not working properly. So I'm saying

44:36

all that to say, if you look at someone who's a

44:38

diabetic or a pre diabetic, start most of the

44:40

fat around their belly. If you look at someone

44:42

who's going through adrenal fatigue, they can

44:44

start starting a fat around their belly. Now

44:46

women and men store fat

44:48

differently. Women usually store it around their belly

44:50

in their hips, men store it around

44:52

their chest in their belly.

44:54

So when it comes out to

44:56

body types, The more it's called visual fat, the more fat that

44:58

we store behind our skin, the

45:00

more likely that there is a metabolic

45:02

syndrome present

45:04

and you usually can find if someone has metabolic syndrome where a pre

45:06

diabetes or blood sugar issues, that's why I can say

45:08

blood sugar issues because they didn't get diagnosed yet.

45:11

It can create adrenal issues. If they have adrenal

45:14

issues from cortisol, then they can

45:16

create blood sugar issues. You gotta see which one

45:18

came first. But the protocol that I

45:20

put people on takes care of

45:22

both. So we're not guessing. And in

45:24

the book, the book that I referred to,

45:26

the author explains in that book that

45:28

most every time a person that has a dream

45:30

fatigue has blood sugar issues. So this person is gonna be tired, this person is gonna be always craving

45:32

sugar, this person is gonna

45:36

be having I can get into more details

45:38

about the symptoms, but this person can be having issues with feeling light headedness, this

45:40

person can feel when they eat sugar,

45:44

becomes resistant or glucose

45:46

intolerant where they get more tired

45:48

after eating.

45:50

So there's based on

45:52

the blood sugar and how the blood

45:54

sugar works with the response of

45:56

insulin and cortisol,

45:58

the body thinking, let's look at it from

46:00

but a non scientific approach, the body believes that

46:02

it has to survive. What are the most

46:04

important things to the body, the organs?

46:08

That is stored energy. The body brings stored

46:10

energy around the organs. In the

46:13

organs of your heart, your

46:16

liver, usually non alcoholic fatty liver is being looked at

46:18

or looked for in the belly.

46:20

So, yes, the adrenal fatigue body

46:23

can come in different shapes. As you can say, due

46:26

to men storm more fat

46:28

around their belly and chest and women

46:30

storm more fat around their belly and hips

46:32

and legs. So if

46:34

someone's listening to this and they're like,

46:36

I feel like I store some fat

46:38

around my belly, but it's more around my legs,

46:40

does that mean they have less chance of

46:42

having adrenal fatigue or no?

46:44

No. No. No. No. No. Absolutely

46:46

not. Because then we have to look at you don't

46:48

just look at one thing. I can't I my

46:50

brain does not work like that. I look at everything

46:52

holistically. If you look at that, that's the last

46:54

thing I really look at. I look

46:56

for, what's their

46:58

problem? First, They'll give me symptoms, digestive issues,

47:00

sleeping issues, PMS. And

47:02

then as they give me these issues, most of the time when

47:04

working with clients, it's on Zoom. I can't see their

47:08

body. Then I fill in a blink for all the rest. I'm saying,

47:10

okay, do you have more stored belly

47:12

fat? Do you notice it's hard for you to get

47:14

up in the morning? Okay, do you that

47:16

you always stress about safety and security?

47:18

And then I go down the list, and

47:20

then I'll see I'm

47:21

like, okay, I know what I gotta

47:23

deal with now. Got it. And these are do

47:25

sometimes the deeper the client the more challenging it is to you

47:28

have to have a strong skill set to coach this

47:31

type of client. Because you're working on a client

47:33

who they always got the result

47:36

by working

47:36

more. Mhmm. The approach that I

47:39

have to give them is not working

47:41

as much. That goes for exercise. That goes for

47:43

everything. And when you do that, you

47:45

build a consciousness out

47:48

of the safety and security. You build the consciousness out of being fight or

47:50

flight. When you're no longer a fight or

47:52

flight, you don't know who you

47:54

really are. So we have to

47:56

create a new version of you in your

47:58

imagination, your highest self, the best version of

48:00

yourself. We have to create a version of you

48:02

that you know you're capable of

48:04

getting to and we have to create a dream. So I have a way

48:06

that I wanna bring the the how a person gets

48:08

the results. But one of the things is

48:10

finding what your purpose is, what your

48:12

dream is, What are you willing to

48:14

change for? So a lot of the things that I

48:16

try to get them to see things,

48:18

bring the subconscious out with a lot

48:20

of presentations with them, a lot

48:22

of artwork, helps me a lot

48:24

with my clients.

48:24

So

48:24

yes, let's talk about now healing this. Yes.

48:26

So let's say we're at Stage

48:30

one of adrenal fatigue. How can we

48:32

so we're noticing maybe there's a

48:34

bit of tiredness, maybe we've done a

48:36

test, and our cortisol levels are

48:38

At this point, is it too high or is it already too low if

48:40

it's at stage one? Stage one's too high. Two phase one's high all

48:43

throughout the day this person feels

48:46

at an all time high. This is usually we can fill this in our twenties. You can

48:48

fill at any stage, but I find it more

48:50

myself and when you see your

48:54

story a lot of my client story. We started off in our twenties when we first started

48:56

to get out of college and, you know, you

48:58

can go out and drink with your friends, wake up

49:00

the next day, feel anything. Your

49:03

body never, you know, is never sore. You feel unstoppable.

49:05

And you do a lot. You

49:07

you grind out. And then you

49:09

go into stage two where it starts to drop in

49:11

the morning. And cortisol levels are meant to

49:14

rise in the morning, usually light hitting

49:16

your skin turns on the production

49:18

of cortisol. That's why going to sleep with a phone in your face or the

49:20

TV on and sleeping all night, you're

49:22

not allowing your body to really get into deep

49:24

sleep. So

49:26

Yet, if you wanna help somebody, there's a couple of things I wanna I've

49:28

been saving the these lists of symptoms. Cognition,

49:31

a person has a

49:33

hard time staying focused, a

49:35

person does not feel motivated. Nothing really makes

49:37

them happy or they don't wanna participate in

49:39

fun. Not because they are born in person, it's because

49:41

they just don't have the energy. Low sex drive is

49:44

a huge one. Cravings for salt. The adrenals is the connection

49:46

between adrenals and salt. The body when

49:48

the body has a lot of adrenal issues

49:52

or imbalances, that creates the body

49:54

to get rid of a lot of fluid. So

49:56

one of the things that the body wants to

49:58

do is hold on to fluid. If you read me someone

50:00

who's a pre diabetic, they use a pee

50:02

a lot. Right? So a lot of times these person could get

50:04

caught peeling out a lot of the

50:06

micronutrients and the minerals, like

50:08

potassium, salt,

50:12

magnesium. That's another one. So you

50:14

have digestive issues, fight or

50:16

flight, or stress cortisol,

50:18

turns on sympathetic nervous system, turns off

50:20

digestion. So when you eat, food just

50:22

sits there and doesn't get digested

50:24

properly. So you'll see things

50:26

like seaborne, IBS is a easy one to to see with

50:28

people. Okay. Then you get waking

50:30

up and one is really hard for this person. It's

50:32

really hard. You get a

50:34

person that they are starting to

50:36

refer to themselves like a different person. I'm

50:38

not who I used to be. I'm not I used

50:40

to do this. You hear them tell these stories on what they

50:42

used to do and how they used to have energy, and

50:44

they don't have that. Sugar.

50:46

Craveen sugar is gonna be another big one as well,

50:48

storing weight around their belly,

50:50

unexplained weight gain. When you look it up, a

50:52

lot of people talk about

50:54

losing weight I run into probably in every ten people, one

50:56

or two people who lose the weight, who

50:58

are are going through my nourishment of

51:00

not gaining

51:02

weight. Because they don't eat. A lot of people who are on the fight of flight don't

51:04

really have an appetite, especially in the morning time.

51:06

Because cortisol levels being produced

51:09

produces gluconeogenesis and blood sugar. By the

51:11

time afternoon comes around, they can find

51:13

themselves hungry. And if they're not prepared, they're snacking

51:15

on a bunch of different things. That are

51:17

now bringing their blood sugar up and down. So those are

51:19

just some of the symptoms. And I named the other ones. I know

51:21

when I'm done with this. I'm like, I forgot to say these

51:24

five, but I'm gonna try to have a reference list to all this I can send you or I can

51:26

have it set up on in the link of my bio, my my

51:28

social media. There's six things I

51:30

do. Number

51:32

one, First thing I do on the first day, I'm talking to the client. The more stressed the

51:34

person is if they're in stage one, the more

51:36

I can dance with trying to

51:39

bring up do dream mapping, something called dream

51:42

mapping. Number one thing I like to do

51:44

is sit a client down and

51:46

figure out what do they love enough questions

51:48

go through with them. Number one, what is a

51:50

goal that you never accomplished before that

51:52

you really

51:54

wanna accomplish? Number two,

51:56

how would your life change when you accomplish

51:58

this goal? Right here,

52:00

it brings them into a different state

52:02

and bringing their imagination in. And I'm not getting they're

52:04

getting out of the fight of flight because fight of flight

52:06

makes this person fear and doubt and

52:08

focus on what is a hundred percent

52:12

something I can do and I know I have the facts behind. When

52:14

you bring up faith and you bring up the imagination,

52:16

these are things that you're looking forward

52:18

to. Right? That you can see yourself

52:22

doing. So those two questions usually get a person to wake

52:24

up. Then we figure out, we

52:26

carve out their dream from there, then we make

52:28

a dream map. Put that in the I

52:30

just wanna add to that that for me.

52:32

I always tell people my greatest healer was

52:34

not the foods. It was not the herbs. It was not

52:36

any of those things. It was connecting to my dharma.

52:39

My soul's purpose because that was the missing

52:41

link of why I felt

52:44

disconnected from my

52:46

body, from my mind

52:48

from everything and and me

52:50

connecting to something larger than me and

52:52

having the sense of direction and

52:54

purpose. It It's like it made

52:56

me not wanna worry about my health anymore.

52:58

You know, whereas before that, it was like I was

53:00

obsessed with my health. And if I wasn't like eating, I

53:02

was thinking about what I was gonna eat and then like

53:04

reading about what to eat and it was just, you know, and in a

53:06

way it was a passion, but then it was like, what

53:08

is the point of all this? Like, to me, the

53:10

purpose of health

53:12

is so we can live

53:14

our dreams, so we can fulfill our dharma

53:16

as not, so we just get a gold

53:18

star of having perfect digestion and perfect

53:20

health and perfect hormones. It doesn't even

53:22

actually exist. Right? There's always gonna be something. So I think so

53:24

important because, you know, also when

53:26

you are in the healing journey, it might

53:29

feel like a sac sacrifice at

53:31

first of, like, wait. So if I go to dinner with friends, like, I can't eat

53:33

the pasta that everyone's eating or I

53:35

can't have that, like, birthday cake of

53:37

my friends and

53:40

especially when it comes to adrenal fatigue like sugar is a

53:42

really big thing and that for a

53:44

lot of people is the one thing that they don't wanna give

53:46

up and not just like refined sugar but like

53:50

pasta and like all of those and

53:52

sometimes you just have to connect to

53:54

something greater than you and

53:56

realize that you being

53:58

low in energy, you

54:00

feeling just depleted all the

54:02

time, you not having the cognitive ability

54:04

to finish the task that you're

54:06

starting. Is holding you back from

54:08

living, like, your best life

54:11

and being creative and

54:13

expressive and free and abundant and all

54:15

of these

54:15

things. It's like, is the pasta really worth it. Mhmm. And

54:17

when you put it together

54:18

like that, it's like, no, of course not.

54:20

That's beautiful that you just said that.

54:23

That's amazing because That's exactly what I do with

54:25

my client. After we figure out their dream, then we have to figure out

54:27

what do they need in order to

54:30

accomplish that

54:32

dream. Core values, putting most of them that put

54:34

knee, knee time, knee time to move

54:36

my body, knee time to dance,

54:40

or do some type of artwork, need time to eat properly, shrink

54:42

enough. So we after making

54:44

that list, we have core values.

54:47

Someone goes and tries to get you to do something

54:50

that goes against your core values, you learn how to

54:52

say no. I teach them your yes

54:54

isn't good enough until you learn how to

54:56

say no. So you can't have that pasta. You can have that

54:58

pasta. How's that gonna make you feel so small? You

55:00

have the weekend that you was gonna work on

55:02

your dream. But now you

55:04

don't have the energy because you recover from

55:06

last night. So I always ask them, is

55:08

that gonna help or hurt your dream? And that's up to

55:10

you. I'm not I'm not here to force you to do anything.

55:12

I'm here to work with you. You're gonna see people

55:14

have issues because addiction is a

55:16

part of the more tired a person is a more

55:18

likely to have an addiction issue because the they're

55:20

looking for a way to numb themselves.

55:22

They're looking way to connect to something. That's why they can become compulsive

55:24

with spending as well. So figure out

55:26

their dream. After we figure out their dream, we

55:29

figure out the core values. As

55:31

we figure out the core values, we see who respects our

55:33

own no. And for those that don't respect

55:35

our no, at the moment, they don't get a

55:37

dream team Jersey. What's a dream

55:40

team Jersey? The people that respect our core values, we give them a

55:42

Jersey, and then we pull them to the side, and we tell them my

55:44

ideas, we tell them what we're doing, we tell them on a

55:46

new die, or telling them

55:48

about how we're gonna go for that one dream of

55:50

ours. These are the people that get out time

55:52

and energy when we have time

55:54

and energy. The people who don't get

55:56

a dream scene, Jersey are the people who don't get

55:58

that because we cannot afford to

56:00

lose our energy explaining on

56:02

why it's important to chase your dream

56:04

life or do something you love to people who are negative, who bring this down.

56:06

And then when you're done with that conversation, you

56:08

don't they're pulling you into a nightmare.

56:10

And that's why I tell people to

56:13

go on an advice detox

56:15

because we're so used to asking

56:17

ever in our lives for advice before

56:19

we take anything that we lose sight of

56:21

our own intuition and ability to make decisions

56:24

and trust our decisions. And

56:26

I know for me with my parents,

56:28

like, especially in my early twenties when I was going through all this adrenal and

56:30

hormonal stuff, every time I was, like,

56:32

gonna make a change, I would, like,

56:34

tell them And it was, like but I

56:36

was, like, actually really looking for their

56:38

approval before doing it, which I would never

56:40

get, but I would still keep doing it. And it was,

56:42

like, this, like and then I wasn't, hey, just

56:44

realized, I'm, like, why don't I just stop telling them

56:46

everything I'm gonna do and just do it and it

56:48

was like, but I didn't have that

56:50

cultivation yet of my

56:52

root and my solar plexus tracker yet that I was still, like,

56:54

needing the affirmation and

56:56

the pat on the back and the support and

56:58

feeling like

57:00

I had one behind me until I realize no bitch, I can stand on my legs.

57:02

One hundred percent. One hundred percent.

57:04

And that's we're we're looking for

57:06

confirmation, and usually that's solar plex.

57:10

But, yeah, a hundred percent. When you I like that. When you

57:12

call that detox advice -- Advise detox. --

57:14

yeah. Just even as for thirty days of,

57:16

like, just don't ask anyone for advice

57:20

because you know, like, in any situation, everyone's gonna

57:22

answer from their level of awareness. Yeah. Right?

57:24

And everyone also has their own agendas.

57:26

Right? And, like, some people's agendas

57:28

is to keep you close to them.

57:30

Yes. And keeping you close to them might be keeping you

57:32

small. Yeah. Yep. Because you here's

57:34

what I find out. When a person tells

57:37

somebody, say somebody is going to

57:39

lose weight. And their mother wants to lose weight,

57:42

but knows she failed in the

57:44

past. And now, you do your

57:46

core values and say, listen, I'm not going out

57:48

this weekend. And their mother or their friend go, why not? Why not going out?

57:50

And it goes because I'm I'm trying to lose weight.

57:52

And they go, oh, you wanna lose weight? You think you

57:54

gotta lose weight, but I said, yeah, he never got lose, but you don't

57:56

be And

57:58

what happens is at that moment, I try to get my clients

58:00

to understand that's your friend or

58:02

your family member projecting your shadow.

58:05

Because deep down aside, they know they should be doing the same. And

58:07

you could run-in this to people's partners

58:09

doing that. I've run into a lot of I

58:11

mean, just imagine twenty nine year old do

58:14

with tattoos Right? Coaching your wife. Right? When you're

58:16

forty five, a lot of men can have an issue

58:18

with that. Right? And start bringing down

58:20

their wife.

58:22

Oh, you're you're never gonna fix yourself or you're never gonna do that because I

58:24

don't know. I I feel like some of the

58:26

people that I work with, I noticed their partners

58:29

are scared for their partner to

58:31

become

58:31

a better version. She's gone still there, girl.

58:33

No. No. No. No. No. I think they just

58:35

fear of their partner doing things they know they

58:38

should be

58:40

doing well. Or

58:40

even their partner feeling confident and maybe being, like, I don't wanna be in

58:43

this relationship anymore. Exactly. You know? Or,

58:45

like, we always drink on the

58:47

weekends. You wanna leave that or,

58:49

like, we always order Chinese binge Netflix shows. Like, you

58:51

wanna leave that, and it's like we want

58:53

someone else, but it's like the same thing as

58:55

like the heroin addict. Want

58:58

someone else to do that with them. And that's why most heroin addicts

59:00

fell into the drug from

59:02

their partner -- Mhmm. -- introducing

59:04

them to them. They know that. Yeah.

59:07

And you told me a lot today. Yes. I like that.

59:09

Yeah. Now I'm gonna use that. So

59:11

in my own spiritual

59:14

journey of really honoring the sacred feminine energy within

59:16

me, I realized that we're not all

59:18

the same and we all have different pathways that

59:20

we can take that I put together in

59:24

creating five archetypes, which I call the rose gold goddess

59:26

archetypes. They are the embodiment

59:28

queen, the womb whisperer, the

59:31

intuitive oracle, the expressionista,

59:34

and the joy priestess. And

59:36

I've put together a free quiz so you can

59:38

find out what your unique combination

59:40

are. So the embodiment queen is the

59:42

person who's always in her body

59:44

dancing, moving, very connected

59:46

to her nervous system. The womb whisperer always knows where she's

59:48

at in her menstrual cycle and probably

59:50

has a Yoni steamer in her

59:52

bathroom. The intuitive oracle has

59:54

three oracle

59:56

card decks on them a pendulum and knows about their past

59:58

lives. The expression is to is creating art

1:00:00

through everything, through singing,

1:00:02

dancing, writing

1:00:04

poetry, everything for her is an opportunity to create art.

1:00:06

And then we've got the joy

1:00:08

priestess who wants to laugh, dance,

1:00:10

and not take herself super serious

1:00:14

you can find her doing karaoke at an improv

1:00:16

class or twerking it on the dance

1:00:18

floor. You can guess which one I am

1:00:21

So you can head over to RGG

1:00:23

quiz dot com to learn what your

1:00:25

unique rose gold goddess archetype

1:00:27

is. Again, that's RGG quiz dot com, and you

1:00:29

can find that link in the show notes. And I've created

1:00:32

custom graphics that you get in your results, so you

1:00:34

can share which rose gold goddess archetype you

1:00:36

are. I'm

1:00:38

super excited to see. When

1:00:40

a person is going

1:00:42

through, we have core values that

1:00:45

learn how to say no. And

1:00:47

then when they start figuring out who's on their dream team,

1:00:49

they start noticing how much time and energy will waste

1:00:51

in on the people that weren't on their

1:00:54

dream team. And then we teach them the four pillars of health.

1:00:56

So now that you have your dream, your

1:00:58

core values, your dream team,

1:01:00

now we have to keep

1:01:02

you balanced. I like to call

1:01:04

this the charger to your dream. Your dream is the

1:01:06

battery to life. This is what I like to look at it.

1:01:08

It's your battery life is what gets you to

1:01:10

today. It's what gets you up in

1:01:12

the morning. But then the battery that battery needs to be charged. Then

1:01:14

the battery's charged through. Number

1:01:16

one, you need to make sure that you're eating

1:01:18

appropriately for

1:01:20

your metabolic type. You need to be eating at a point where you know

1:01:22

what's helping you with someone with a adrenal fatigue.

1:01:24

We have to be very aware of

1:01:26

given our body food that digestes

1:01:30

fast. Number one, just

1:01:32

process food. White flour, even

1:01:34

fruits that are high fruits, I

1:01:37

mean, on a high glycemic make index.

1:01:39

We gotta be careful on body is going through

1:01:41

stages of hypoglycemia when you're

1:01:44

really stressed as

1:01:46

it is. So if you get Like a

1:01:48

banana smoothie with dates and Oh, yeah. Good luck. You know, you're gonna be dried out,

1:01:50

and you'll notice what I see it in a Bible

1:01:52

every day. And I thought, oh, I'm

1:01:55

so healthy because I'm having a size balls

1:01:57

and I didn't even realize, like, some of some a

1:01:59

lot of places you go

1:02:00

to, they're even using a size or bay.

1:02:02

You're sort of eating an ice cream bowl exactly the gym and thinking it's healthy or

1:02:04

back when I used to think Pinkberry was healthy. Yeah.

1:02:06

I was, like, proud of myself for

1:02:09

having a frozen yogurt. Because

1:02:11

I thought, like, it was marketed as this,

1:02:14

like, really healthy low glycemic thing.

1:02:16

And we don't realize too, and it's like and I

1:02:18

think there's a whole conversation, and

1:02:20

we won't get into that of, like, some

1:02:22

people say humans are meant to live off carbs and

1:02:24

they're, like, the high carb, like, thirty

1:02:26

bananas a day people. And then you have people

1:02:28

who are, like, carnivore and there's, like, everything

1:02:30

in between. But what I hear

1:02:32

you saying is for adrenal fatigue, there's a

1:02:34

specific Yeah. For the you

1:02:36

gotta see what stage you're in. The more

1:02:38

sensitive a person is too. And there's things

1:02:40

that you can see when you're sensitive. If you eat a

1:02:42

banana and you notice that you're starving in

1:02:44

the next hour, but back in the day you see eat a

1:02:46

banana, you used keep you full for the Oatmeal.

1:02:48

My mom's like, eat oatmeal everyday. It's so good

1:02:50

for you, and I would eat and be so hungry up.

1:02:52

There you go. So then right there, that's an indication

1:02:54

that there's something going on with how you're

1:02:56

how that food is being oxidized or digested. So what you'll

1:02:59

learn is you wanna most people

1:03:01

that I get, the first thing we start doing

1:03:03

is is the most important

1:03:06

meal is gonna be breakfast, but in my opinion, is gonna be their dinner.

1:03:08

Because I find most people

1:03:10

eat too many carbohydrates before bed, which

1:03:13

then brings your glucose levels up. And then those

1:03:16

glucose levels start to drop around one to four

1:03:18

in the morning. Okay. I keep hearing mixed things

1:03:20

on this. Some people are

1:03:22

saying, don't have fruits in

1:03:24

the morning because it brings up

1:03:26

your blood sugar levels.

1:03:28

So instead, have them at night because you're gonna sleep and it, like,

1:03:30

helps. A digestion? Yeah.

1:03:32

And also it's, like, with

1:03:33

your muscles, like, it brings, like,

1:03:36

glucose back into your muscles, so

1:03:37

it's helpful. Sorry. I heard this whole, like, move because everyone would always say,

1:03:39

and even Iraveda always has have fruit

1:03:41

before your meal, so have it

1:03:43

in the morning. But, yeah, it's I

1:03:46

saw this book and it was called only eat after seven.

1:03:48

So, you know, how they say don't eat after seven? This

1:03:50

book is only Stop by that. Yeah. Glad

1:03:54

to see. Don't know who I just saw

1:03:56

it at the airport. I was like, this is interesting. So -- Yeah. -- what is your take

1:03:58

about a book deal? Exactly. You just gotta

1:04:00

go with something revolutionary even if it doesn't

1:04:04

make sense. Well, so the science behind what he's

1:04:06

suggesting just based on what you just said, when you

1:04:08

go throughout the day, you burn through glycogen. So if

1:04:10

you eat at

1:04:12

night, you when you eat those carbs, those most likely gonna be stored as

1:04:14

glycogen. That's what he's trying to say.

1:04:16

But remember, the best way to

1:04:18

see what works best is to see where

1:04:20

you're

1:04:21

Right? A person that has sebum, it may

1:04:24

not be best to throw a whole bunch of

1:04:26

prebiotics, a soluble fiber because

1:04:28

you have

1:04:30

bacteria you have bacteria in the place that the and the attest is that it's

1:04:32

not really supposed to be in. So we're gonna

1:04:34

be over feeding them, so you have to starve

1:04:37

them out. All it depends on where the person is at,

1:04:39

and that's where in life, this is something

1:04:41

that you'll learn. The more fight a fight,

1:04:43

the more root shocker, imbalance that you have,

1:04:45

the more imbalance, the less you

1:04:47

are present in your own body and you're

1:04:49

easily manipulated. And that's why when I

1:04:52

said in the beginning, there's a there's a

1:04:54

deep down personal opinion that I have on why it's not being

1:04:56

really looked at because if you

1:04:58

read the book James l Wilson

1:05:00

adren fatigue, you're not gonna you're not gonna

1:05:02

regret it. He shows in our

1:05:04

book that most disease that we deal with

1:05:06

today is due to the fact of the

1:05:08

adrenals not producing enough

1:05:10

stable cortisol. One of the stairways give

1:05:12

you is a cortisol stairway to help you fight

1:05:14

inflammation and disease when you're

1:05:16

really sick because a person has

1:05:18

one of the first things that come up is respiratory diseases are big.

1:05:21

What I find is most people have a fungal infection. Right? Because

1:05:23

of the adrenal fatigue audio

1:05:26

Fungal guide. I

1:05:28

said No. No. No. No. No. No. No.

1:05:29

No. No. No. No. No. No.

1:05:32

No. No. But a person is wide open

1:05:34

to a fun wall infection on a parasite

1:05:36

because the

1:05:38

body's stress suppresses the immune system.

1:05:40

Cortisol has good benefits. One of

1:05:42

the things is helping with inflammation.

1:05:45

So if you have not enough or imbalance

1:05:47

of not enough or not producing

1:05:49

enough cortisol levels, you're gonna have issues

1:05:51

with inflammation and things like

1:05:54

that. So We have the dream. Core values. Okay. So then we have

1:05:56

nutrition. What nutrition, what

1:05:58

I find that works the best is most

1:06:00

people are not

1:06:02

eating enough fat and protein with

1:06:04

their dinner. Fat and

1:06:06

protein slowed down the

1:06:08

digestion of carbohydrates. I've

1:06:10

worked with three hundred people that have this problem. I just made that up in my

1:06:12

mind right now. I was gonna say thousands, but

1:06:14

it's at least from three hundred to a

1:06:16

thousand people as soon as I fixed

1:06:18

their dinner. They sleep

1:06:20

throughout the night because if you do not if

1:06:22

you eat too many carbohydrates, that doesn't mean you

1:06:24

can't eat

1:06:25

carbohydrates. Too many and not

1:06:27

enough protein. It's the ratio.

1:06:30

Exactly. Not enough protein effect that tie it

1:06:32

up. Your glucose levels will drop while you

1:06:34

sleep in. What happens when glucose levels drop

1:06:36

hypoglycemia? Hypoglycemia can turn on the

1:06:38

sympathetic nervous system. So now your cortisol

1:06:40

levels up and Should it be, like, based on

1:06:42

your weight

1:06:44

they say like point eight grams according to one pounds of

1:06:46

your body weight is how much protein you should

1:06:48

have? That's a good question. Or

1:06:50

some people even say per scientifically,

1:06:54

yes, to learn that in school. Be grounded.

1:06:56

Yeah. To to sustain muscle, especially

1:06:58

when you're losing weight or you're trying to But

1:07:00

that's

1:07:01

very hard. It is. In my opinion, this is

1:07:03

just my opinion, this is why you can't

1:07:05

when I work with a client, it depends on

1:07:07

the person. Point eight

1:07:09

I try to get a person to hit eighty grams of protein before I put

1:07:12

point eight. So if I have a male that's two hundred fifty pounds or I

1:07:14

have a woman that's one hundred seventy pounds, I'm

1:07:16

not gonna tell them

1:07:18

to hit point eight. That's gonna be around one thirty, one fifty grams of

1:07:20

protein. No. We don't do that. What I first do

1:07:22

is instead of getting you have to be

1:07:24

careful with

1:07:26

some people given the macronutrient, some people have eating disorders, and it

1:07:28

can be a trigger to weigh themselves to

1:07:30

track food. So we

1:07:32

make it like, okay, here's a

1:07:34

meal and a half. What do you think about this meal?

1:07:36

Oh, you know, I like it. Try it. Let

1:07:38

me know. So for example, for dinner, one of the things

1:07:40

that we do for dinner is we

1:07:42

can do just a perfect example. We take a

1:07:44

potato. If you want a carbohydrate, take a

1:07:46

potato, we slice that potato to nice circles,

1:07:48

olive oil on a pan, We put those

1:07:50

potatoes in there oven at three fifty for about

1:07:52

twenty three to twenty five minutes. We take

1:07:54

it off. We put some sea salt and we let it

1:07:56

cool off. When the potatoes

1:07:58

cooling off, we're making that potato into a

1:08:00

resistant starch. A resistant

1:08:02

starch becomes a strong pre biotic

1:08:04

for their microbiome, for their

1:08:06

good bugs. But it also can cut

1:08:09

the glucose index down on that

1:08:11

potato. So now it doesn't digest as

1:08:13

fast and it keeps a person a lot more

1:08:15

focused as a lot of fiber. Then we take

1:08:17

a protein source. It can be a salmon. It can be ground turkey,

1:08:19

ground beef. We take a protein source, and then we have

1:08:22

like an avocado with

1:08:24

that. We can have ground turkey avocados

1:08:26

sweet potato for dinner. How much avocado? One avocado or half avocado.

1:08:28

Yeah. And then what a person

1:08:30

would do is they'll track that

1:08:34

and see how they sleep. If they notice that they one

1:08:36

of the signs you're gonna see is peeing throughout the

1:08:38

night when a person eats too many carbohydrates, they

1:08:40

pee throughout the night. They wake up

1:08:42

out of their deep sleep key they sweat in

1:08:44

their sleep or they wake up and can go back to sleep. That's a sign

1:08:46

of the blood sugar dropping or the body trying to get rid of

1:08:50

extra glucose. So then they'll wake up in a morning feeling tired and they

1:08:52

have no energy so they go straight to a

1:08:55

pot of coffee. Right? And then they start to

1:08:57

cycle all over again. So the first thing I

1:08:59

like to do with attrition fix their dinner,

1:09:01

see how many carbohydrates they can withhold. So if they noticed that even with one sweet

1:09:03

potato, they still have that problem, let's cut

1:09:06

it down to half a superintendency how

1:09:09

we do. So kind of like the worst the

1:09:11

adrenal fatigue, the lower in carbohydrates they need to be? That's a

1:09:13

good question. No. That'll be ignorant

1:09:15

for me to say. Sorry.

1:09:18

No. Because I hear mixed things. If if someone has adrenal fatigue, they should be eating a lot of sweet

1:09:20

potatoes and and

1:09:23

different carbs like that.

1:09:26

Yeah. But then I also hear, like, the blood

1:09:28

sugar perspective. So We want a complex

1:09:30

carbohydrate. So we gotta see how they do

1:09:32

it at the end of the day, we don't

1:09:34

wanna put them on a keto diet. Just don't wanna do it. In

1:09:37

my opinion, you just do not wanna do that. Because when you

1:09:39

go keto, you put your body under

1:09:42

stress to produce its own to make fat into energy. Yeah. Right? That

1:09:44

could be too much for somebody.

1:09:46

Complex carbohydrates over process is simple.

1:09:49

So you can have your carbohydrates but

1:09:51

try to track it. If one cup of rice still

1:09:53

makes you feel exhausted, then try a

1:09:55

half a cup. If a half a cup

1:09:57

does a job, try that out and then

1:09:59

in about three weeks try to

1:10:01

do one cup. You see what I'm

1:10:03

saying? But either way, complex carbohydrate protein or protein

1:10:05

with some fat, not a bunch of fruit, not

1:10:07

a bunch of potato

1:10:10

chips, not a bunch of processed carbohydrates. Those are the things that are gonna spike and drop really fast. A person

1:10:12

is gonna be kind of, like I

1:10:14

said, dependent, but they they can utilize

1:10:19

complex for because if they don't and they go too low carb, then

1:10:22

that means their body has to either break down protein for

1:10:24

energy, muscle for energy,

1:10:27

or fat for energy. And

1:10:30

usually, they have to put themselves into ketosis, and it depends on the person's life demands. If a person

1:10:32

is a construction worker

1:10:34

or athlete or a mother,

1:10:39

it can be very hard to do that. Yeah. And I think it also

1:10:41

depends on, like, what you've been eating before. Because if

1:10:43

you go to a lot of

1:10:45

cultures and you're like, you can't have rice anymore. They're like, what?

1:10:47

And just that will be so stressful and, like, give them adrenal

1:10:49

fatigue. You know, you don't wanna do you

1:10:51

don't wanna crush

1:10:54

someone's belief system. Yeah. Right? And that's why I'm very careful

1:10:56

and sensitive on, I know

1:10:58

one thing, high glycemic carbohydrates, and

1:11:02

processed food like processed bread,

1:11:05

potato chips. That right there is

1:11:07

a big no no on your adrenal

1:11:09

fatigue. A big no no. You're gonna

1:11:11

be left hungry over eating, a bunch of issues,

1:11:13

complex carbohydrate protein and fat is what we're looking at combined. Now, that's

1:11:16

number one number

1:11:18

two, controlling the caffeine. Usually, I

1:11:20

get a client that drinks two to three cups of coffee.

1:11:22

I'm not gonna say we have to take you off a hundred percent coffee. That is

1:11:26

extreme, and that's hard.

1:11:28

What I like to do is free up a little

1:11:30

bit of energy little by little, and the more they a client sees that or a person sees that, the more motivated

1:11:32

they are to continue to

1:11:35

grow. So instead of two

1:11:38

cups of coffee. Let's start the morning off with a Americano. That's one shot of espresso. of

1:11:40

coffee can be

1:11:43

anywhere from a hundred two

1:11:45

hundred 478 milligrams of caffeine. And Maricano is one shot of espresso. Oh, I always thought

1:11:47

that espresso had more caffeine than coffee. I did too.

1:11:49

Because you're going to the coffee shop,

1:11:52

people like, Let

1:11:54

me get a red eye. Right? Right. Three shots of it. Well,

1:11:56

it depends because you can make three to four

1:11:59

shots of espresso in one cupboard.

1:12:01

Right? It just depends how strong it is. Exactly.

1:12:03

So, Americano, we dilute and we water down the the espresso

1:12:05

itself, and then we can give them the hit

1:12:07

of that because you don't want some Or

1:12:09

a latte, maybe with one shot. A

1:12:11

latte is cool. Trying to put

1:12:13

some type of protein with fat with the caffeine to slow down the

1:12:16

digestion of

1:12:19

caffeine. Like, collagen protein powder? We'll see how they do with that. I

1:12:21

usually have a whole set up at home, but since I

1:12:23

came down here, my safest

1:12:26

bet, macadamia nut milk. I put

1:12:28

that in has a little bit of carbs,

1:12:30

has more fat to hold back the caffeine from being digested so fast. What

1:12:33

do you think of bulletproof

1:12:35

coffee? I was to say that that's when

1:12:37

people did bulletproof coffee, and that's why people can see benefits with that. Just gotta be careful the

1:12:40

more stress that

1:12:42

you put yourself under, the

1:12:44

more you're gonna produce your own

1:12:46

blood sugar. Yeah. To me, I tried the bulletproof. It made me anxious. Yes.

1:12:50

Because you can create

1:12:53

a huge imbalance with your energy sources that your body is gonna use. You have

1:12:55

all this fat, but then now you have all this

1:12:57

caffeine at the same

1:13:00

time too. Remember, fight a

1:13:02

fight needs glucose. And it's like glass coffee. It's not there's no milk in it too. That's why

1:13:04

I think it's

1:13:07

so strong. Yeah. It all depends on

1:13:09

where a person is at too. The more stressed it, I'm not putting someone on bulletproof. Personally, I'm

1:13:11

not. People have own way, they have their own

1:13:14

reasoning, but I've seen so many

1:13:16

results fixing

1:13:18

dinner, fixing coffee to an Americano

1:13:21

instead and

1:13:21

putting, like, there's a a supplement

1:13:24

that is not collagen, but it's a

1:13:26

coconut. It's called layered hemp with

1:13:27

some creamer. We put the original milk powder. Exactly. We

1:13:30

put that in. We mix that in with the Americano. We take out sugar

1:13:34

immediately. Right. I hope I find the client that has a droof thing that puts sugar with

1:13:36

coffee, I'm like, oh my god. Just taking a shit. Or

1:13:38

even a lot like, oat milk. Hello? Can we

1:13:40

have a conversation about oat

1:13:43

milk? Because everyone thinks oat milk is so

1:13:45

healthy. Yeah. Actually, they have found that it has tons

1:13:47

of vegetable oil in it.

1:13:50

One hundred percent. And I was like that crazy when I said that about a

1:13:52

year and a half or two years

1:13:54

ago. Canola oil. Canola oil? Yes. It

1:13:56

can be made of canola oil or

1:13:59

they like to make things sound like

1:14:01

they're healthy, like canola oil, grape seed oil. But it's not actually

1:14:03

made of a canola plant. It's it's vegetable

1:14:06

oil is not like actual

1:14:09

vegetables. It's just a completely refined super high in the omega six's,

1:14:11

I believe, which are the ones that are bad for

1:14:13

you that counterbalance the omega three's,

1:14:15

like, it is toxic. Yes.

1:14:18

That's I went to LA and I couldn't find anything besides

1:14:20

oat milk because it's like the thing

1:14:23

right now. Yes. And oat

1:14:25

milk almond milk. Gotta be careful with

1:14:27

them because remember they can be enzyme inhibitors. What does that Especially nuts and

1:14:29

seeds or enzymes? Almonds

1:14:31

are sprayed with glyphacy.

1:14:35

Of course, an enzyme inhibitors is when

1:14:37

I work with a client and we're trying to figure

1:14:39

out what's getting their digestion out

1:14:41

of balance. Where I find a lot of nut

1:14:43

seeds and grains are the ones that go for

1:14:46

first. Yep. So because the nuts are in

1:14:48

everything healthy these days. So you get

1:14:50

a non dairy cheese, not you're not you've heard Steven, my husband's

1:14:52

birthday, I got him this like keto vegan cake,

1:14:54

and I was like eating all of it myself.

1:14:56

And I'm like, I probably just

1:14:58

ate like twenty bags of cashews. Yeah.

1:15:00

And what happens is the body is not digesting a sieve. Look,

1:15:02

when you eat food, you wanna be able to digest a sizzling and eliminate. If

1:15:05

you can't do all three of them, you're

1:15:07

gonna create some type of mouth

1:15:10

nourishment. Right? So a lot of people who eat

1:15:12

all the nuts that are not that's why it's

1:15:14

called sprouted nuts. When you sprout nuts, look at

1:15:17

the water when you done sprouting them. You see a

1:15:19

bunch of white gooey stuff that blocks enzyme

1:15:21

inhibitors. I mean, enzymes from

1:15:23

digesting your food. So they're called enzyme

1:15:25

inhibitors. They don't allow your enzymes to

1:15:27

break down in a simulate your food, which

1:15:29

then leaves you hungry, tired, and then now your organs, the the

1:15:31

pendulum nutrition, is not getting nutrition,

1:15:34

skin issues, all that crazy stuff.

1:15:36

So What

1:15:38

about flax milk? Flax milk?

1:15:40

I don't have enough informational flax What

1:15:42

about pea

1:15:43

protein milk? Pea protein milk. Pea

1:15:45

protein could be very hard to

1:15:47

digest. proteins known to be very hard to digest. You

1:15:49

can look up Dr. Ted Neiman's work. He has

1:15:52

probably about a

1:15:54

hundred presentations on YouTube explaining

1:15:56

scientifically on how eating plant protein is very difficult to

1:15:59

break down and it doesn't meet anywhere

1:16:04

near the benefits that meat brings you. Plant protein

1:16:06

tries to protect itself when you try to digest and assimilate it,

1:16:08

and sometimes that protection can

1:16:10

cause inflammation, it can cause a

1:16:14

bunch of different reactions in the digester tract,

1:16:16

and it's hard to get the protein

1:16:18

the the end result, get the protein

1:16:20

you need from it. Mhmm. But If a person

1:16:23

is going, this how I like to think about it. If

1:16:25

a person is drinking milkshakes and they're trying

1:16:27

this new vegan protein

1:16:29

shake, that's a rainbow bridge remake. Mhmm. Because if

1:16:31

I tell the client, this is bad. That is

1:16:33

bad. This is bad. That is bad. Get

1:16:35

them overwhelming them information. So

1:16:37

what milks do you

1:16:39

drink that are I get this one macadamia nut

1:16:41

milk or I get home, I'm not in LA at the moment, but I used to

1:16:43

go get fresh made almond

1:16:46

milk from sprouted nuts or

1:16:49

coconut milk than I go for. So what about the coconut

1:16:51

milk that's like in the container at the store? I'm not drinking it.

1:16:55

Personally, I'm not. Do you think that the

1:16:57

milks that are in the fridge are better than the shelf stable ones? Or it's the exact same thing they

1:16:59

just put one in the fridge? You

1:17:02

mean

1:17:03

the ones like like Like, sometimes, you'll find a

1:17:05

coconut milk and almond milk in the fridge and then some are on the shelves. Got you. I think I'm assuming

1:17:07

the ones

1:17:08

on the shelves have

1:17:11

more chemicals in it. Yeah. Because it preservatives

1:17:13

to keep it -- Right. -- being refrigerated would be might be Right.

1:17:15

But someone told me if you actually look, I

1:17:17

guess it depends on the milk

1:17:19

that it's the same just the marketing because

1:17:21

we're mentally used to milk being in the fridge. You know what? That's a good point because after

1:17:23

you open up the ones on the shelf when I was Yeah.

1:17:25

You put in the fridge anyway. The fridge. Exactly.

1:17:28

So I that

1:17:30

when I was at a coffee shop one time and, like, what you doing over

1:17:32

there? Call them. If you had to

1:17:34

choose a non dairy milk at

1:17:37

the store, what would you choose? Worst case scenario?

1:17:39

See, it works for me. and milk works for me. They're like,

1:17:42

I had it this morning because I

1:17:46

I'm traveling right now. So I like to throw in some fat and but

1:17:48

my partner, she does go with oat milk.

1:17:50

Okay. So she does go with this. So

1:17:54

I've been doing flax. Why is that the protein?

1:17:56

Yeah. Because I had the protein and I was like, I

1:17:58

feel like it's at least not a nut. I think

1:18:01

you don't need more nuts in my life. Yeah.

1:18:03

Because I always eat these bars with nuts in it. So I'm like, I feel

1:18:05

like there's a lot in there. So it because about

1:18:07

the seed and the hormone

1:18:10

balancing, but at the same time, I tried to make flax milk myself at home and

1:18:12

it did not work. Mhmm. So I'm like, how

1:18:14

are they getting this flax to turn this

1:18:17

milky side? I remember when you told me that.

1:18:19

I remember we we spoke about that. Yeah. tried making every kind of milk

1:18:21

and the only one that really came out good

1:18:23

was like the cashew milk

1:18:26

because it's

1:18:26

very felony or the almond milk. Even the coconut milk, it separates, like, within

1:18:28

hours, and you have to, like, totally

1:18:31

mix it every single time that

1:18:33

hardens. So the fact that

1:18:35

they're making these milks stay in that consistency

1:18:37

for weeks at a time -- Mhmm. -- shows the level of of fillers. I

1:18:39

mean, I notice it myself. I

1:18:42

still drink them often,

1:18:44

but I will get bloated after.

1:18:46

And I know that. Yeah. Because they are hard to digest. And remember anytime your intestines are

1:18:48

inflamed, nerves that connect to your

1:18:50

intestines connect to the core muscles.

1:18:54

He transfers Adamis turns off, blue. So,

1:18:56

yeah, in my opinion, when I

1:18:58

work with the client, we get

1:19:00

them from being super numb and

1:19:02

stressed. To then when they're getting energy and they're feeling a

1:19:05

little better, they become aware of that. You know what?

1:19:07

I'm gonna stop you, you're gonna, oh,

1:19:09

no, Nick. Why? Because it makes me bloated. It

1:19:11

makes me tired. And I'm below you

1:19:13

know, they can't seem like, okay. Thank God.

1:19:16

Right? Because now they're they're

1:19:18

getting in tune again. So My number one thing is, get rid of the worst things,

1:19:20

and then get them sleep, get the

1:19:22

nutrition for that. So that's the nutrition

1:19:25

part. We do nutrition. Then we do movement. My goal with

1:19:28

movement is try to get them not to

1:19:30

overtrain. And I call it the high vibe

1:19:32

walk. Remember

1:19:34

your dream you told me about, go find

1:19:36

someone who's living your dream, who's teaching,

1:19:38

or talking about it on podcasts,

1:19:41

on YouTube. Go find them now,

1:19:43

Save that podcast, get that ready, bring some headphones with you,

1:19:45

find a neighborhood you wanna live in,

1:19:47

or find a

1:19:49

park that brings you good energy. Number three, nobody

1:19:51

negative can come with you. Number four, no

1:19:53

phone calls, no work. I don't

1:19:56

care. Put your phone on airplane

1:19:58

mode, save the episode, save the

1:20:00

music. Or listen to music that brings

1:20:02

your energy up, go for that walk for sixty minutes, visualize yourself become the person that you wanna

1:20:04

become. You're changing the

1:20:06

state at which you felt

1:20:10

from before. You're getting more into the

1:20:12

I don't say you're getting into the seven

1:20:14

chakra or the six chakra. No. You're

1:20:16

actually elevating and you're moving your emotions

1:20:18

in a different way. go gym, you're

1:20:21

walking, visualizing, and then

1:20:23

start studying the people that live in the

1:20:25

neighborhood you wanna live in. What kind of car

1:20:27

did they drive? How

1:20:29

did they walk? How did they talk?

1:20:31

What did they smell? Like, I became obsessed with that

1:20:33

because that helped me escape. Sometimes we are stressed because

1:20:36

of life. Work,

1:20:38

family. And sometimes when we're

1:20:41

stuck in that environment, it's hard

1:20:43

to even think positive. But if

1:20:45

we escape that and put

1:20:47

ourselves to go on the high vibe walk. You're elevating or you're rising

1:20:49

your vibration. You're bringing up your

1:20:51

vibration from feeling good, breathing,

1:20:53

getting the body to

1:20:56

pump itself. And have an imagination that's

1:20:58

being fed, you're putting yourself in a position where when you go back to that negative situation,

1:21:00

you have inspiration

1:21:03

and motivation you need, to

1:21:05

get out of it and stay true to your dream. So we

1:21:07

try to put them on some high vie walks, try to get them relaxed. Usually, first week or two,

1:21:09

I give my client homework to

1:21:11

get a massage. Be

1:21:14

in touch is very important as far as when

1:21:16

you feel intense, stress the muscles get tight

1:21:18

and it helps them relax a little

1:21:20

bit. But training. I tell clients all the time.

1:21:22

If you can't go in the gym and beat last week's training program, you shouldn't be in the in the gym. You train

1:21:24

to have progressive overload. Or you

1:21:26

train if you wanna be like

1:21:30

aerobic athlete or bike or marathon, then

1:21:32

you train I get that. But when you

1:21:34

train in the gym, you train to

1:21:37

beat numb you train to progress. So

1:21:39

sometimes we go to the gym and just beat ourselves up, so we can

1:21:41

fill something, so we can sweat. And then at

1:21:43

the end of the day,

1:21:45

nothing was beat, and then this person has a high

1:21:47

because we think going to the gym is about burning as many calories as possible.

1:21:49

So you go to the classes where you're doing

1:21:51

the boot camps and

1:21:54

a million things and that's what I used to think. Right. The more I sweat, the

1:21:56

better of a workout it was. So I would go

1:21:58

to, like, hot yoga because I'm, like, oh, now

1:22:00

I'm sweating even more,

1:22:03

but that actually doesn't Like, maybe you're

1:22:05

burning a little bit more calories because it's just hot your

1:22:07

thermal temperature, but you're not increasing your

1:22:12

daily caloric burn the same way

1:22:14

that you would if you increase muscle. Well, the chances of you overeating are very high. After, see it all the time.

1:22:16

Number two, HPA access

1:22:19

communicates with the HPT. Hypothyroid,

1:22:23

the pituitary thyroid. So

1:22:25

the hypothalamus pituitary thyroid communicate.

1:22:27

The higher levels your cortisol

1:22:30

levels are, the more issues you have with your thyroid stimulating

1:22:32

hormone. What does that mean? Your

1:22:34

body thinks it's so stressed that

1:22:37

it can't It's it's not gonna

1:22:39

survive. So what it would do is it needs to save energy. So

1:22:41

you'll start seeing people

1:22:43

get hypothyroidism. Their

1:22:46

thyroid drops one of the first signs you see with a person is their hands,

1:22:48

their cold, because they're not regulating

1:22:50

temperature, because that is that

1:22:53

takes rest of metabolic rate, that takes

1:22:55

energy. on decreasing its rest of metabolic

1:22:58

grade so it can save energy.

1:23:00

So you used to eat twenty

1:23:02

five hundred calories and maintain your

1:23:04

weight. You eat twenty five hundred calories

1:23:06

now, but your body saved energy, so don't need twenty five no more. It needs only two thousand. So the

1:23:09

extra five

1:23:12

hundred calories you end up gaining weight, so

1:23:14

a person will start gaining weight. So when a person goes to the gym and they

1:23:17

add more stress

1:23:20

on themselves, the chances of going

1:23:22

home, hypoglycemic, hungry, and tired, and then to stress,

1:23:27

compulsive eating, addiction, etcetera. So Yeah. Like, since I

1:23:29

started lifting weights, I realized that you don't

1:23:31

actually need to spend that

1:23:33

long in the gym. And I would hear people say that before

1:23:35

I'm like, yeah. Right. You know, like, you're lying.

1:23:37

But now I'm like, even if I just

1:23:40

do four sizes

1:23:42

in that workout. And and before I used to think, oh, it needed to even just be, like, a leg day only or this.

1:23:44

And now even, like,

1:23:47

today, I did, like, maybe

1:23:50

two or three leg exercises, two

1:23:52

or three upper body, but I'm

1:23:54

going at my maximum weight. And

1:23:56

with every single set, I'm like, okay,

1:23:59

can I go heavier with keeping the form? And,

1:24:01

you know, I'm lifting heavier than I ever thought

1:24:03

that I would do. I had this belief that,

1:24:05

oh, I would get bulky if I lift heavy

1:24:07

and you just judge and I think it's also our

1:24:09

society. But I've realized, like, I just want

1:24:11

I feel so much stronger. Like, when

1:24:13

I travel, I don't have to worry

1:24:16

about, like, oh my god. I'm traveling by myself. How am

1:24:18

I gonna get my bag on the overhead thing? Like, that used to stress me out so much of, like, what if no one can help

1:24:20

me? And, like, these

1:24:22

days, steroids don't really help you

1:24:24

with that. No. They don't. So it's like little

1:24:27

things like that I'm able to do, but I actually just, like, feel better in my body that,

1:24:31

like, I used to, like, wake up and check my stomach first thing of, like, am I bloated? Like,

1:24:33

how fat am I today? I was, like, the obsession.

1:24:35

And now I'd never do that. I

1:24:37

don't even weigh myself. I don't

1:24:40

need to. Because I know, like, no matter

1:24:42

what, I'm gonna be consistent in my exercise, and it's not like, oh, I have a photo shoot. I need

1:24:44

to, like, lose weight for the photo

1:24:46

shoot. It's like, I'm always going to

1:24:50

and I look better than I ever have before because

1:24:52

You look great. You look great when you came in.

1:24:54

I was like, she's looking strong. Remember, you

1:24:56

kinda thought I was crazy when I first told

1:24:58

you that I'm like, you don't have to hit the gym every day because you have all

1:25:01

these you hear all these experts say

1:25:03

things. Right? But you're a beast

1:25:05

too, because I give you

1:25:07

a hard workout and I was for sure gonna

1:25:09

because I remember you say, I don't get started. I'm like, I I'm gonna give you a hard workout. We

1:25:12

worked heavy and

1:25:14

hard, and then I text you

1:25:16

an example. You're sorry. Like, no. I'm like, what?

1:25:18

There's no way she's not sore, but I believe it because I remember

1:25:22

you telling me you like to sweat and you like to push your body. I remember the

1:25:24

first time we trained, I was demonstrating all these

1:25:26

things and I was showing the importance

1:25:29

of lifting heavy versus

1:25:31

distant versus that. And I was scared I was

1:25:33

gonna lose you as you believing me. I remember that day I'm like, oh, man. She's probably not

1:25:35

gonna believe me.

1:25:39

But you I saw your videos and you continue

1:25:41

to increase your strength training. Yeah.

1:25:43

And also, like, coming from background,

1:25:45

it was like, yoga. You

1:25:47

know, it's no weights at all. And then the next

1:25:49

thing, there was, like, pull out these. And it was, like, so there's a little bit then bar. Now you

1:25:51

got little two

1:25:54

pound weights. Then I would then when the pandemic happened, I couldn't go to

1:25:56

the bar class anymore. So then I started to do YouTube. Then

1:25:58

I was, like, let me try this, like, string

1:26:01

training one, but it's, like, an

1:26:03

aerobic string training. And then getting a little bit

1:26:05

more and a little bit more. So, like, yeah, if I met you in

1:26:07

my, like, deep yoga days, I would have been like, hell no, I'm not

1:26:09

gonna do it, whereas I

1:26:11

needed to just get, like,

1:26:13

a little bit heavier. And now I've learned too a lot of these compound movements that you see people do

1:26:15

that are, like, you and then you do a bicep

1:26:17

curl, and then you do an overhead

1:26:20

press, like, all

1:26:22

with the same weights. I'm like, that's such a waste of time. Yes.

1:26:24

Because you could squat so much heavier than

1:26:26

you could do a bicep curl. So

1:26:28

why would I basically reduce my squat to whatever I

1:26:30

can bicep curl, which is like ten pounds, and I can squat like two hundred pounds. Like,

1:26:32

why would I do that? Exactly. Exactly.

1:26:35

Because it looks good. Yeah. Member

1:26:39

I told you, it looks cute. Right. Oh, that's cute. Let me

1:26:41

see a little bit. Oh, that's cute. Now you have people

1:26:43

going to the gym doing that when you do

1:26:45

a compound You think if it's

1:26:47

more complicated, it's better. Exactly. Yeah.

1:26:49

Exactly. And that's the fitness industry confusing people. That's the

1:26:51

fitness industry. I'm I'm a certified

1:26:53

coach, a trainer. I seen

1:26:56

it myself. And

1:26:58

I got results because we did The

1:27:01

truth in the matter is if you get

1:27:03

the

1:27:03

results, you're no longer

1:27:04

my client. So I don't text you anymore. I used

1:27:06

to always send in my spots and I'm like, yo, I got this. Yeah. You got

1:27:09

it out. You got it out.

1:27:11

Yeah. Because with you, we

1:27:14

saw some imbalances. I was teaching you things that is boring, but I'm like, you know, I'm telling you, we gotta fix this. We gotta fix that. And then

1:27:17

you

1:27:19

started killing it. Right? You don't

1:27:21

need me no more. Right. That's that I'm doing, like, a hundred of these, like, gloop bridges. I'll

1:27:24

do, like, ten

1:27:26

of them at my

1:27:28

max I sent you, what

1:27:30

would what did I do? And that one I

1:27:32

sent you? Like, just Oh, you get a lot of weight. That's what I

1:27:34

think you were in on Texas. Okay. What is she doing?

1:27:38

She's showing off now. Yeah. Exactly.

1:27:40

But it's crazy because

1:27:42

I feel actually even more, like,

1:27:45

compact and not that I'm doing it because

1:27:47

of my size, but it's like, when it's

1:27:49

true, like, muscle is just smaller and denser than

1:27:51

than fat. Yep. And putting stress

1:27:53

on the nervous

1:27:56

system builds muscle. Right? The body needs to your

1:27:58

body doesn't go out when it looks sexy tomorrow. The body goes, okay, we have to adapt to that resistance.

1:28:03

That's the strength. If you adapt to that

1:28:06

ten pound squat curl, now if you do it faster and faster, you're not going through the musculosystem

1:28:08

of adaption, you're going

1:28:11

through the cardiovascular system. Which

1:28:13

is your cardio. We pull the client from the gym, we get them high vibe, walk, and

1:28:15

then we start People lose weight. Right? We

1:28:18

track our food. We track everything.

1:28:22

As far as making sure we're doing all the things right, if they do

1:28:24

have a weight loss goal, but people start feeling

1:28:26

better. You're still moving your body. And guess what?

1:28:28

A walk can get you and it depends on how much

1:28:31

weight you're gonna anywhere from two hundred to three hundred fifty calories burned. Sometimes even more than that.

1:28:33

So you still burn a lot of calories, but now when

1:28:35

you go home, you lifted your

1:28:38

energy and you lifted the organs and

1:28:40

working properly. Everything is not catabolic. It's

1:28:42

anabolic now. So the chance you're overeating

1:28:44

are very small. And the chances of sticking

1:28:47

to your dream is staying clear on what you want in life,

1:28:49

very high. The chances of a distraction body, very small. And now we get consistency. If you

1:28:51

went to the gym and you're like, I'm so

1:28:55

hungry. That means you overworked yourself out. No. That would be wrong for

1:28:57

me to say, because when you break down muscle

1:29:00

tissue, the body wants

1:29:02

protein and restore the glucose

1:29:05

when you eat that meal and you're

1:29:07

still starving and you're overeating and you're overeating you notice that, then that's

1:29:09

a pattern we have to

1:29:11

pick up on. Your it's

1:29:14

normal for your body. As soon as I lift my know exactly what my wants. If I my body banana something gonna

1:29:16

be starving. My body wants protein and

1:29:18

a little bit of glucose, and I'm good.

1:29:23

After. So that's number two. So we

1:29:25

have movement, dream, diet,

1:29:27

quiet. So meantime, and

1:29:30

sleep are two things we need to focus on. We're getting

1:29:32

better sleep because we're fixing our carbs. But during the

1:29:34

day, you need to press time out. You need

1:29:36

to cut things off. You need you time. And

1:29:39

that's appropriate. Sometimes we put we

1:29:41

in all before I. I can't

1:29:43

love you and tell of

1:29:45

myself. So for me, I'm selfish in the morning when

1:29:47

I wake up, my dogs know not to leave the bedroom with me. When puppy comes down with

1:29:49

me, she chills, but other

1:29:52

than that, she

1:29:54

doesn't bother me, but I'm not feeding you in

1:29:56

the morning. Sometimes if my girlfriend

1:29:58

wakes up early, she knows I'm over

1:30:00

here in the living room and I'm

1:30:02

studying something and I'm having my

1:30:03

cappuccino. Give me thirty minutes. Because as you

1:30:06

know as an entrepreneur and even as

1:30:08

a mother that let people listen or

1:30:10

as someone who's a student wherever you are

1:30:12

in life, you know when

1:30:14

it's, like, eight o'clock, nine o'clock, email start calling text messages start coming in. I need to talk to myself first.

1:30:16

Right? So it's important that when that me,

1:30:18

it's in the morning. I I wake up before

1:30:23

people I like waking up at five and one. I'm why do we got five. I

1:30:25

think that I get a head start on

1:30:27

WiFi at five. Right? If I wake up

1:30:29

at five and average, Americans are waking

1:30:31

up at eight. I got three hours extra a day.

1:30:33

Time is by seven. I got I got eight days when that person has seven days.

1:30:35

This is how I think about it. Now I go

1:30:37

to sleep early. I go to sleep by nine o'clock,

1:30:40

nine thirty.

1:30:41

So

1:30:42

that's when I'm working now. Yeah. Yeah. Without wasting. Without wasting. So brain just works better but find

1:30:47

nobody bothers me. If I

1:30:49

wanna go to the coffee shop, ain't no traffic in the coffee shop, there's no line at the coke. I

1:30:51

get the world to myself, and I appreciate that. So making sure

1:30:54

you have time to turn your brain

1:30:56

off. And

1:30:58

then making sure you get sleep. Eye before we

1:31:01

always. That's quiet. Then the extra

1:31:03

two I'm gonna throw in this. We

1:31:05

have diet quiet, movement, dream.

1:31:08

Right? The extra two, sit down

1:31:10

with a piece of paper. On the

1:31:12

left side of the piece of paper, write down how

1:31:14

much money is coming out of your bank On the

1:31:16

right side, how much is coming in? I want you to

1:31:18

have a goal. Start off small. How can we stop having three

1:31:22

if you're having financial issues?

1:31:24

Financial issues can turn, make a person

1:31:26

very stressed, work, finances, environment. So one of the

1:31:29

things I personally

1:31:31

see and I'm speaking out of a personal

1:31:33

experience with this podcast with a adrenal fatigue, glute chakra, reptilian brain is

1:31:35

I continuously see

1:31:39

a person stressing about money, we have to clear that up. So two things,

1:31:41

if a person actually shouldn't be stressing because

1:31:43

they're good financially, then we make

1:31:45

them recognize that, and they can

1:31:47

take a vacation. You tell us,

1:31:49

hey, why don't you just take the week? Oh, no. I can't do that. So we have to show them, hey,

1:31:51

you can do that. Look, good. Number two, if

1:31:54

they feel like they can't

1:31:57

It's because their expenses may be so

1:31:59

high that even though their their income is good, expenses still got them working out

1:32:01

of the, like, the root shocker and

1:32:03

and safety security. So

1:32:07

how can we decrease that by three hundred dollars? And

1:32:09

what you start saying is most people

1:32:11

eat out, but and

1:32:14

eat food that makes them tired. So

1:32:16

now when you're no longer tied, now you have the energy to

1:32:18

cook, now you have the energy to cook, now you're not spending as much as money. And then we come

1:32:20
