Hello, I'm Angela Sharp, and thank you for joining us

15
00:00:58.159 --> 00:01:00.799
on a Sharp Outlook. To day, we're going to be

16
00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:04.280
talking about a healthy lifestyle, something that all of us

17
00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:09.000
need to engage in. If you've been feeling overwhelmed by

18
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:13.040
all the conflicting advice out there, you're in good company today.

19
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:17.519
Between Google, rabbit holes and influencer rules, it can start

20
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:20.879
to feel like your body's signals are getting drowned by

21
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:25.680
everyone else's opinions. That's exactly why my Guest Today created

22
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:32.480
her Anti Inflammation Kickstart guide. Inside you'll find clear, realistic

23
00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:37.159
habits that work with your life, not against it. No counting,

24
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:42.120
cutting or obsessing, just small shifts that help you feel

25
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:47.359
better from the inside out. Imagine waking up without the

26
00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:51.799
heaviness in your body, your energy throughout the day, your

27
00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:55.480
belly calm after meals, your mind clear enough to actually

28
00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:58.680
enjoy the evening. That's what happens when you give your

29
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:05.799
body consists and see instead of chaos. Here we're going

30
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:09.840

61
00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:33.160
Thanks Angela, happy to be here.

62
00:04:33.879 --> 00:04:38.920
Yes, well, you mentioned something about all sort of colitis

63
00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:41.639
at the age of five. Goodness, that had to be

64
00:04:41.720 --> 00:04:45.480
really difficult for you. I had all sort of colitis

65
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:52.439
at the age of seventeen and eighteen years and.

66
00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:54.000
It was devastating.

67
00:04:54.240 --> 00:04:55.560
It had to be difficult for you.

68
00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:59.920
Yeah, it was. I mean there was a lot of painful,

69
00:05:00.560 --> 00:05:01.480
that's for sure.

70
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:05.279
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Yeah.

71
00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:08.560
It's not something people at five years old are usually

72
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:13.319
diagnosed with, and yours at seventeen was pretty young too.

73
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:18.519
People don't get diagnosed with that like until they're late

74
00:05:18.600 --> 00:05:19.839
thirties or forties.

75
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:25.959
And what I did find out was that it was

76
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:32.920
related to inflammation. So I'm excited to finally, you know,

77
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:36.639
know the truth. I mean, I suffered desperately, and I

78
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:40.279
know others that are out there they are suffering also,

79
00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:42.920
you know, with a lot of pain and different things.

80
00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:47.199
And so we'll talk about that more. But your plans

81
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:53.600
incorporating whole fiber rich and anti inflammatory foods like oats, beans, flax,

82
00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:58.040
and healthy fats like avocado into the diet. You also

83
00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:04.040
recommend reducing sugar and refined carbohydrates. How's that working out

84
00:06:04.040 --> 00:06:08.839
with your clients, you know, especially pushing back with the sweets.

85
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:15.680
Sweets and sugar is always a hot topic. Yeah, so

86
00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:18.680
all of those things can help with inflammation. And how

87
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:22.680
is it working out with clients? You know, most of

88
00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:26.319
my clients come to me, they already know sugar is

89
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:30.800
bad for them. It's a matter of uncovering the why

90
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:34.639
behind the habit of you know, reaching for those refined

91
00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:39.319
carbs and sweets. And you know, sometimes that why is

92
00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:43.800
like habit related, or it can be stress or comfort

93
00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:46.680
they get from eating them. So like digging into that

94
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:51.399
emotional reason why they're reaching for those things.

95
00:06:52.040 --> 00:06:54.759
Oh yeah, absolutely, And I think there might even be

96
00:06:54.800 --> 00:07:00.959
a misunderstanding. Everybody thinks sweets only effect you know, your

97
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:06.000
body and causes diabetes as a whole other issue, but

98
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:10.959
they don't realize that it's causing inflammation, which really brings

99
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:16.199
about multiple diseases are caused by inflammation. You highlight the

100
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:22.199
importance of daily movement, also prioritizing sleep and staying hydrated.

101
00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:25.839
Do you treat people with old types and is there

102
00:07:25.839 --> 00:07:28.560
an age range?

103
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:32.079
So I treat people with all body types.

104
00:07:33.519 --> 00:07:37.560
I typically work with driven women in their thirties to fifties.

105
00:07:37.720 --> 00:07:42.759
They're usually professionals juggling a lot, dealing with stress and

106
00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:47.519
got issues and inflammation. So you know, body type doesn't matter.

107
00:07:48.079 --> 00:07:53.399
Mindset is what matters. So I start with my clients

108
00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:57.000
like where their body is at today, and every plan

109
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:02.480
is personalized for that person's lifestyle, all stress and the

110
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:03.680
goals they want to reach.

111
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:06.279
That's what guides the approach for their program.

112
00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:11.480
Well, you mentioned managing the stress. I hear that all

113
00:08:11.519 --> 00:08:14.800
the time from my physician. You have to manage your stress.

114
00:08:15.399 --> 00:08:18.600
You know, I need somebody to help me understand what

115
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:21.759
that is. Managing stress as a cool component of overall

116
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:25.920
well being and managing physical health markers like cholesterol.

117
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:30.720
What does that mean? Oh exactly, I get that question

118
00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:31.480
all the time.

119
00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:40.480
So stress affects everything. It affects digestion, hormones, sleep, and

120
00:08:40.519 --> 00:08:46.120
your cholesterol. So like when you're under chronic stress, meaning

121
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:48.600
like stress all of the time, which you know.

122
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:53.519
Everyone has stress. You're not going to get through life

123
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:54.320
without stress.

124
00:08:54.919 --> 00:08:59.799
So when you're under the chronic stress, your body releases cortisol,

125
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.279
which signals the liver to release more sugar and fat

126
00:09:03.320 --> 00:09:11.320
into the bloodstream, and that includes the LDL cholesterol. So

127
00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:15.279
that's why stress management isn't just like mental health, it's

128
00:09:15.360 --> 00:09:20.559
metabolic health as well. So I teach what I call

129
00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:26.559
micro call moments, and these are simple resets you can

130
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:33.240
build into your day. So resets for example, like just

131
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:36.200
even two deep breaths before a meeting. I did that

132
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:39.120
before we got on here, and it took like, you know,

133
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:47.120
thirty seconds or a quick stretch between calls. And then

134
00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:50.879
you know, one thing that's really important today is creating

135
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:55.559
boundaries with your with your device because once you open

136
00:09:55.679 --> 00:09:58.279
up your phone, you know, you have all these alerts

137
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:01.080
and those all it can be triggers for.

138
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:06.519
People, right right, I've never had it out all these years.

139
00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:13.120
There's a lot. I've never had anyone exactly explain why

140
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:17.519
they kept telling me manage your stress. I never realized

141
00:10:17.639 --> 00:10:21.960
it affects you know, cholesterol and all those other things.

142
00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:25.480
And then you know, releasing things you know into the body,

143
00:10:25.960 --> 00:10:29.080
and especially that cortisol thing. I know about that cortisol

144
00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:33.679
that's really is a problem. And that's why you can

145
00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:36.799
have you know, the ulcer of colidos and the crones.

146
00:10:36.840 --> 00:10:40.759
This inflammation just builds up and but I didn't understand

147
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:42.279
what it was.

148
00:10:42.440 --> 00:10:46.240
Thank you for yeah, my pleasure, and you know, even

149
00:10:46.639 --> 00:10:50.080
taking it just one step further, so stress can cause

150
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:52.759
as much inflammation in your body as food.

151
00:10:54.799 --> 00:11:00.399
Well, okay, I'm going to get on it. I'm going

152
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:02.600
to get on and I'm going to start taking a

153
00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:06.200
couple of breaths and you know, just you know, touch

154
00:11:06.320 --> 00:11:09.279
the floor and then stand up and reach for the

155
00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:12.240
sky just a couple of times, just to like calm

156
00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:12.840
it down.

157
00:11:13.840 --> 00:11:14.039
Yeah.

158
00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:17.320
I you know, like I said, I've lived with all

159
00:11:17.320 --> 00:11:20.759
sorts of collidis. I know what stress can do, and

160
00:11:20.840 --> 00:11:25.120
I know what inflammation can do, and so and you

161
00:11:25.159 --> 00:11:27.240
don't want to wait until you get to that point.

162
00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:30.279
So yeah, it's time to learn how to calm down.

163
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.039
And that's what we need to do. You recommend the

164
00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:37.399
use of natural remedies like dandelion and green tea to

165
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:41.960
support liver health, digestion, and cholesterol levels as part of

166
00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:43.159
the balance lifestyle.

167
00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:47.679
Yes, all very important.

168
00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:53.679
And you know natural support works best when it's part.

169
00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:55.159
Of a balanced foundation.

170
00:11:55.559 --> 00:11:58.600
So you know, not using those things is just a

171
00:11:58.679 --> 00:12:01.399
quick fix, but you know it's part of your health

172
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:02.720
foundation if you will.

173
00:12:04.759 --> 00:12:08.080
Yeah, well I have my dandelion tea and my pantry.

174
00:12:10.799 --> 00:12:16.159
Oh yeah, yeah, you know, after that battle with colitis

175
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:19.240
and and finding out that all I needed to do

176
00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:25.879
was get control of my inflammation. And this native medicine

177
00:12:25.879 --> 00:12:30.840
woman told me to drink Devil's Claw and they you

178
00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:37.279
know it not only did it calm the cholesterol. From

179
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:40.240
the time I drank it thirty five years ago, I

180
00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:44.320
have never had another episode. And I've had my colonoscopies

181
00:12:44.679 --> 00:12:49.720
and it's not there. And so, you know, I speak

182
00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:52.840
highly and I tell people just do this, you will

183
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:58.279
find the inflammation going away. And it's so. And then

184
00:12:58.320 --> 00:13:03.159
of course the dandale. Yeah, and just just a reminder,

185
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:08.240
not all teas tastes good, but keep in mind the

186
00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:12.720
sicknesses doesn't taste good either, So just drink the tea

187
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:13.960
and be well.

188
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:18.200
So what does Devil's Claw teaste like?

189
00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:24.559
It's terrible, It's like the worst, But you just get

190
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:29.759
it down and you can immediately feel the joints you

191
00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:33.840
know that feel swollen, in the fingers that feel swollen,

192
00:13:33.919 --> 00:13:36.879
and you know, suffering the pain that you're feeling. You

193
00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:43.679
feel like immediate improvement. And so and the fact that

194
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:47.200
I saw that happen in my life is just something

195
00:13:47.200 --> 00:13:50.679
that I really really really uh talk about on a

196
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:55.360
regular basis. So how do you find define holistic health

197
00:13:55.720 --> 00:14:00.399
and why is it important for especially busy professionals.

198
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:01.600
Yeah.

199
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:11.559
So holistic health means the whole person. So food, mindset, boundaries, relationships, joy,

200
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:17.759
and nutrition, like it's all connected. So basically you can

201
00:14:17.799 --> 00:14:21.960
eat perfectly and still feel awful if your life is

202
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:22.960
out of alignment.

203
00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:29.240
M Yeah, getting into balance I think. I think especially professionals,

204
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.960
because there's so much demand in so many areas, you

205
00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:35.080
don't know how to cut it off. You know, you

206
00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:37.720
don't know how to close the door and say, okay,

207
00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:40.639
I'm taking my professional hat off. I don't want to

208
00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:45.200
hear anything, do anything, and then you start, you know, enjoying,

209
00:14:45.799 --> 00:14:49.320
enjoying your time. I've had to do that over the years.

210
00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:52.879
Just I just consider them as hats. I'm wearing this

211
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:55.320
hat for right now, but I'm going to take it off.

212
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:57.519
I have this hat on for right now, and I'm

213
00:14:57.519 --> 00:14:59.080
going to take it off. And when I take my

214
00:14:59.159 --> 00:15:02.720
hat off, leave it behind if you if somebody would call,

215
00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:07.720
I'm sorry, I don't have that hat on right now. I,

216
00:15:08.279 --> 00:15:11.159
you know, maintain that calm and that balance in my

217
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:14.240
life because you know, there are life has a lot

218
00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:17.080
of demands just all by itself, and then when you

219
00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:21.120
have children, those are demands also, and then you have

220
00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:24.440
you know, other things that you're working at. I mean,

221
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:28.159
it's it can get overwhelming, it really can. So yeah,

222
00:15:28.200 --> 00:15:34.759
I know, yeah, I never thought about holistic being everything

223
00:15:34.799 --> 00:15:39.720
that you're doing. I was always thinking it was okay,

224
00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:45.039
I'm eating holistically, you know, I'm taking things holistically, but

225
00:15:45.159 --> 00:15:48.360
never thought about just my every day life being part

226
00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:53.720
of that whole holistic plan. Yeah, that's just incredible.

227
00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:58.480
Like health is health does bill into your daily systems.

228
00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:02.519
You know, are busy professionals, you know, if you have

229
00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:07.480
a sustainable system that gives you more freedom, not restriction,

230
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:11.879
and then you know you're you mentioned like people with kids,

231
00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:14.399
and then like it's even like more more things to do,

232
00:16:14.559 --> 00:16:19.240
more stressful, and then the kids are looking to the parents,

233
00:16:19.279 --> 00:16:23.399
you know for examples. So you know, just making sure

234
00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:27.240
the kids know how to eat healthy, you know, to

235
00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:30.440
live long, healthy, happy.

236
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.879
Lives, right right, don't start them out on all of

237
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:39.200
those carbohydrates and snacks and things that you know, and

238
00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:43.200
you know, these days maybe before we didn't have as

239
00:16:43.279 --> 00:16:47.200
much information and knowledge, but you can go in and

240
00:16:47.639 --> 00:16:51.240
look at products and you can tell it's filled with

241
00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:54.759
things that your body doesn't need and it's going to

242
00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:56.159
fight you back.

243
00:16:56.000 --> 00:16:56.720
Because of it.

244
00:16:56.919 --> 00:16:59.960
So don't start your your children on all those snow

245
00:17:00.120 --> 00:17:04.839
accent and process foods. And I'm sorry, get a cookbook

246
00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:08.440
if you don't know how to cook, because you really

247
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:13.200
need to put some whole, wholesome food in your children,

248
00:17:13.640 --> 00:17:16.799
you know, so that they can also be healthy. You

249
00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:21.440
specialize in anti inflammatory health. What are what are the

250
00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:25.880
most common misconceptions people have about inflammation and diet.

251
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:32.720
So most people think inflammation only shows up as like

252
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:41.519
pain or swelling. So oftentimes it actually signals like fatigue,

253
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:47.480
low energy, brain fog, floating. It can even affect like

254
00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:52.279
your mood, and also stubborn weight. So these are all

255
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:55.079
signs that your body is under stress.

256
00:17:55.599 --> 00:17:56.000
Mmm.

257
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:04.119
Wow, boy, you must be reading my mail. You're telling

258
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:06.880
me all the things that are happening. Oh my goodness.

259
00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:11.079
You know, like I said, you get just so fixated

260
00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:15.359
that this thing here I know is inflammation, but I

261
00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:18.559
never think about all those other things being a form

262
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:23.839
of inflammation. Oh my goodness. Were helping me a lot.

263
00:18:24.839 --> 00:18:29.960
What they help stop Collective and what is what is

264
00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:33.119
the core philosophy.

265
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:33.880
Help style.

266
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:39.720
Collective is my private coaching practice designed for driven women

267
00:18:39.759 --> 00:18:45.359
in their thirties and fifties who feel inflamed, overwhelmed, stuck,

268
00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:50.039
and they're tired of starting over. A lot of them

269
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:55.319
are dealing with gut issues, low energy, and stubborn weight.

270
00:18:56.920 --> 00:19:00.160
And then I think you asked the core philosophy, So

271
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:05.799
health should fit your lifestyle and habits that align with

272
00:19:06.000 --> 00:19:08.119
real life and not add more stress.

273
00:19:09.759 --> 00:19:13.799
Yeah, that's you know, Like I said, I don't think.

274
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:18.079
I know, I haven't and I imagine majority of people

275
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:21.759
out there do not think about health being holistic. They

276
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:25.119
think it's like one little disease that they have, or

277
00:19:25.880 --> 00:19:30.039
a disease that they've heard about, or you know, the

278
00:19:30.119 --> 00:19:32.400
shops they are taking, the pills they're taking. But they

279
00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:39.519
don't realize holistic means incorporating everything a peaceful mind. You know,

280
00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:45.920
laughter and or just being angry anger causes can cause

281
00:19:46.039 --> 00:19:49.720
inflammation because it does something inside the body. I mean,

282
00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:55.319
there's just wow. We have to start thinking holistically about

283
00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:59.559
every emotion, every thought, every thing we're putting in our

284
00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:04.200
but bodies, everything we're doing with our bodies. It really

285
00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:06.960
is head to toe. I used to hear that all

286
00:20:07.000 --> 00:20:09.880
the time, head to toe from my mom, but it

287
00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:16.160
wouldn't make any sense. Okay, Okay, everything's connected.

288
00:20:16.440 --> 00:20:21.039
And you know I'm from a holistic standpoint.

289
00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:25.720
That's like where I created my C three method, Crystal

290
00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:30.400
clarity and calm as the foundation, so we clarify what

291
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:36.240
the body truly needs, and then consistency building steady, realistic habits,

292
00:20:36.400 --> 00:20:41.240
and then calm to lower stress so healing can actually happen.

293
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:45.359
M h, well that is that is I'm going to

294
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.759
remember the three c's. That's that that really is important.

295
00:20:49.960 --> 00:20:53.519
It's like I said, most people don't even break that out.

296
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:57.279
You go to your physician all the time and they

297
00:20:57.400 --> 00:20:59.799
tell you your different levels and things like that, and

298
00:21:00.079 --> 00:21:02.440
they say, well, you know, you have to stop doing this,

299
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:04.839
you stop doing that, you have to do okay, this

300
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:09.279
is working, okay, but this isn't working. Okay, So that's wonderful.

301
00:21:09.400 --> 00:21:13.960
But if you don't give people some instructions as to

302
00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:16.839
what it is when you say stop doing this because

303
00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:20.720
it's you know, causing these problems, then I'm I'm not

304
00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:24.559
informed enough to even be able to make the changes

305
00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:28.559
I need to make in my in my lifestyle. And

306
00:21:29.880 --> 00:21:32.480
I don't know what's wrong with the medical field. They

307
00:21:32.480 --> 00:21:37.119
can't add a little more conversation and present a little

308
00:21:37.160 --> 00:21:40.799
more knowledge to their patients. Hello, a little more knowledge

309
00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:44.720
would maybe cut down the visits. Oh maybe that's what

310
00:21:44.920 --> 00:21:45.720
never mind.

311
00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:53.880
That's where that's where I come in, So help help

312
00:21:54.119 --> 00:21:55.720
clients fill.

313
00:21:55.559 --> 00:21:57.559
Those habits and learn how to do it.

314
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:05.039
You know, my training is science backed and the programs

315
00:22:05.039 --> 00:22:10.000
are compassion led, merging nutrition with behavior psychology and stress

316
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:15.279
regulation so people can actually form those habits that stick.

317
00:22:16.759 --> 00:22:21.240
Yeah, and it. You know, we have habits that we've

318
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:25.039
set up in our lives, the problem being they've been

319
00:22:25.160 --> 00:22:29.799
bad habits. So just having to change those habits. And

320
00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:32.359
I don't think I don't think the knowledge is out

321
00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:37.599
there for people to understand. What are some of the

322
00:22:37.640 --> 00:22:42.079
bad habits. They're not just eating, there's other bad habits

323
00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:46.680
of not like like you mentioned, getting getting the proper

324
00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:51.440
amount of sleep and things like that. What do you

325
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:55.440
think about what are some of the habits that people

326
00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:56.880
have that they need to change?

327
00:22:57.839 --> 00:23:01.880
Oh gosh, there's a law some people.

328
00:23:02.319 --> 00:23:06.359
And you know what I found is it's usually like

329
00:23:07.720 --> 00:23:13.359
emotionally driven the habits, Like you know, some people, they

330
00:23:13.440 --> 00:23:17.039
might get glued to the couch and not want to

331
00:23:17.079 --> 00:23:21.680
get off, like you know, So then they're living a

332
00:23:21.720 --> 00:23:26.000
sedentary lifestyle, not getting movement. But what is that tied to.

333
00:23:26.759 --> 00:23:31.920
Maybe they're not happy, maybe they don't have confidence. Maybe,

334
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:34.119
I mean, it could be all different kinds of things

335
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:38.079
going on, you know, getting in a routine of not moving.

336
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:43.960
It can be how people manage their stress.

337
00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:50.039
Yeah, yeah, And like I said, I don't some people

338
00:23:50.079 --> 00:23:54.000
they're just going through the day and they're pretending everything's

339
00:23:54.079 --> 00:23:57.599
okay and they're not really they're not facing the fact

340
00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:02.559
that they really are feeling stressed and taking the right

341
00:24:02.599 --> 00:24:06.599
steps to actually deal with it and manage it, like

342
00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:11.920
you have told us, so that they they don't end

343
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:15.279
up now with something even worse and they're ill and

344
00:24:15.319 --> 00:24:19.079
they're sick or they're in bed with you know, pain

345
00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:22.279
that that that's hard to tolerate. So now you're taking

346
00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:28.000
all these medications that cause even other problems that could

347
00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:33.440
have been done by just recognizing and just being truthful

348
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:40.440
with themselves. I'm unhappy, I'm upset, I'm angry, you know,

349
00:24:40.839 --> 00:24:44.160
they you know, we're uh. Some people were in working

350
00:24:44.319 --> 00:24:48.920
environments where they have a boss that is not the

351
00:24:49.000 --> 00:24:55.960
friendliest and you know, uses intimidation instead of coaching. You know,

352
00:24:56.079 --> 00:24:58.799
their staff and so they're always on edge and they're

353
00:24:58.839 --> 00:25:02.960
always you know, feeling afraid and different things like that.

354
00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:07.519
Of course, you know, it starts with the manager needing

355
00:25:08.160 --> 00:25:12.359
some coaching and some training as to that's not a

356
00:25:12.440 --> 00:25:17.440
motivating factor for people intimidating them and in fact, it

357
00:25:17.519 --> 00:25:23.559
is a form of abuse. So you know, we need

358
00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:27.880
to have managers that understand their staff and treat their

359
00:25:27.920 --> 00:25:32.839
staff correctly and have a work environment where everybody feels

360
00:25:32.839 --> 00:25:36.720
like they're on a team and can safely participate without

361
00:25:37.119 --> 00:25:42.640
you know, consequences. So there's just all these different environments

362
00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:46.240
that are there. But if they don't tell themselves the truth,

363
00:25:46.599 --> 00:25:49.279
they're not going to be able to work with it, right.

364
00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:55.559
Yeah, definitely, So getting to know themselves better and the

365
00:25:55.640 --> 00:25:58.119
mind body connection super important.

366
00:25:58.839 --> 00:26:04.519
Yeah, and contacting someone like you to be honest with.

367
00:26:06.440 --> 00:26:10.720
Yeah, you said, hey, you know, it takes people time

368
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:15.240
to figure out, you know, what their body is telling them.

369
00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:18.240
A question I ask a lot is like, you know, well,

370
00:26:18.240 --> 00:26:22.319
when this happened, whatever scenario, it may be, like where

371
00:26:22.319 --> 00:26:24.839
did you feel that in your body? But if you're

372
00:26:24.880 --> 00:26:29.960
not asking yourself that question, like, it takes time to

373
00:26:31.000 --> 00:26:33.519
remember to ask yourself that question, and then to really

374
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:39.200
identify like where you might be feeling whatever emotion that triggered.

375
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:44.400
You mentioned that, you sit down and you put together

376
00:26:44.759 --> 00:26:50.359
like plans with your clients. How do you help clients

377
00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:55.359
co create that personalized action based plan on their unique

378
00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:59.079
lifestyles and resources. How do you get them to do that?

379
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:01.599
So I.

380
00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:08.799
Use m I, which is motivational interviewing to help clients

381
00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:15.200
themselves uncover what actually feels doable and enjoyable to them

382
00:27:15.319 --> 00:27:21.480
and their specific lifestyle. And it's like, you can't force transformation,

383
00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:23.480
you have to like invite it in.

384
00:27:24.240 --> 00:27:29.039
So once we figure out you know, their why.

385
00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:36.160
And what's the motivating factor or factors behind that, then

386
00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:40.200
we start building. I call it habit stacking, so we

387
00:27:40.200 --> 00:27:44.640
add one or two small, meaningful habits each week. So

388
00:27:44.680 --> 00:27:48.799
that's then by the over six months, imagine what you know,

389
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:51.640
creating one to two new habits each week or over

390
00:27:51.759 --> 00:27:58.160
six months, those small shifts completely transform energy, confidence, and consistency.

391
00:28:00.079 --> 00:28:03.519
So you know, the personalization is the key part because

392
00:28:03.839 --> 00:28:07.200
if people don't enjoy it, you're not going to sustain it.

393
00:28:07.319 --> 00:28:11.880
So we find what the person enjoys, what would work

394
00:28:11.920 --> 00:28:17.519
for them to reach their goals and they're supported through

395
00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:18.319
every step of the way.

396
00:28:18.920 --> 00:28:19.359
Mm hmm.

397
00:28:20.480 --> 00:28:26.119
Well, you know it's kind of you know, sometimes you

398
00:28:26.200 --> 00:28:30.720
get just so busy you forget to think about something

399
00:28:30.759 --> 00:28:34.720
that you enjoy, you know, something that you enjoy doing,

400
00:28:34.839 --> 00:28:38.200
something that makes you laugh, something that makes you smile,

401
00:28:38.359 --> 00:28:43.960
something that just totally changes your atmosphere within yourself for

402
00:28:44.119 --> 00:28:47.480
the day. Because everyone just they get on that. It's

403
00:28:47.480 --> 00:28:51.200
almost like the little gerbils on the wheel. They just

404
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:58.079
get on the wheel and just run over. Yeah. Yeah,

405
00:28:58.119 --> 00:29:02.599
and just they're just running the wheel and they forget that,

406
00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:07.440
Hey you're a human being. Hey, you're a human being

407
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:11.640
with purpose. Hey you're a human being with goals. Hey,

408
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:16.079
get off the wheel and start doing what really makes

409
00:29:16.079 --> 00:29:20.720
you happy. I mean some people, okay, because of circumstances. Yes,

410
00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:23.400
you decided that you need to just go get a

411
00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:26.559
job so you could pay those bills or you know,

412
00:29:26.680 --> 00:29:29.720
take care of that family or things like that. But

413
00:29:29.960 --> 00:29:32.839
is that something that really makes you happy? Is that

414
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:39.119
something you really enjoy? If not start thinking about you know,

415
00:29:40.319 --> 00:29:43.079
what you really would want to be doing if you could,

416
00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:48.279
and you can, if you really start thinking about it

417
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:52.359
and putting energy towards it and finding people like you

418
00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:56.920
that can help them make those steps and make those

419
00:29:57.319 --> 00:30:03.559
decisions and get just get a new life, you know,

420
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:08.680
instead of staying on the wheel because it doesn't make

421
00:30:08.720 --> 00:30:11.039
you happy. You're just running as fast as you can,

422
00:30:11.359 --> 00:30:15.279
and you run even faster so you don't allow the hurt,

423
00:30:15.400 --> 00:30:18.680
the pain, the anger, the frustration, the unhappiness to catch

424
00:30:18.759 --> 00:30:22.079
up with you. But eventually you're going to grow older

425
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:26.759
and you're going to feel this crush of all this

426
00:30:27.000 --> 00:30:32.759
unhappiness because you have not worked on what really really

427
00:30:33.319 --> 00:30:36.039
you enjoy and wanted to do all your life.

428
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:36.680
That's just.

429
00:30:38.160 --> 00:30:44.079
Wow. What role does an inner self mastery approach play

430
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:47.839
in physical well being? Tell us about what that is?

431
00:30:48.039 --> 00:30:52.039
Yeah, so that's we kind of talked to touch on

432
00:30:52.119 --> 00:30:57.079
it a little bit. You know with the mind body connection, uh,

433
00:30:57.519 --> 00:31:04.359
learning to respond not to react, having emotional regulation and

434
00:31:04.400 --> 00:31:11.400
physical regulation and your body listens to everything your mind sets.

435
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:15.880
So it's also it also has to do with self

436
00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:21.240
talk and you know, when the mind slows, the body

437
00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:26.200
can heal. So going back to connecting, like you know

438
00:31:26.279 --> 00:31:31.960
that question, where did you feel this in your body from?

439
00:31:32.119 --> 00:31:35.599
You know, whatever may have happened, So figuring that out

440
00:31:35.599 --> 00:31:37.920
and how to listen to that and then knowing what

441
00:31:38.039 --> 00:31:38.359
to do.

442
00:31:40.920 --> 00:31:45.599
How do you bridge the gap between wellness and strategy.

443
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:49.319
It work.

444
00:31:50.039 --> 00:31:53.680
I always tell clients like, just like you would have

445
00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:57.079
a strategy for your business or your career, you need

446
00:31:57.079 --> 00:32:01.519
one for your health and life. Energy brings that clarity

447
00:32:01.519 --> 00:32:04.359
and focus and without it, you're just reacting.

448
00:32:05.799 --> 00:32:07.160
So that's why you know.

449
00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:11.839
Together, in my programs, we design the personalized health strategy

450
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:18.279
that aligns with my client's goals, lifestyle, and their bandwidth.

451
00:32:19.559 --> 00:32:24.119
So it's not necessarily about doing more. It's about doing

452
00:32:24.200 --> 00:32:27.799
what matters most to the person and doing it consistently.

453
00:32:29.880 --> 00:32:34.319
And people's health deserves as much intention as their success.

454
00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:41.880
Hm. That is really interesting. I really like that, Crystal.

455
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:46.240
I never thought about that. I mean, we have our mind,

456
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:48.359
we have our body. I never thought about the fact

457
00:32:48.400 --> 00:32:52.920
that the body is reacting to what my mind is

458
00:32:52.960 --> 00:33:00.440
saying and sometimes my thoughts probably aren't healthy and they

459
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:03.599
and my body is reacting because my mind is thinking

460
00:33:03.640 --> 00:33:07.279
that Wow. So we've got to keep our minds together

461
00:33:08.759 --> 00:33:16.400
a little bit. So I've never, like I said, we

462
00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:20.599
we I think we've just kind of segment segmented our

463
00:33:20.640 --> 00:33:22.680
life and so we think, okay, we got our mind,

464
00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:24.559
and then we have our body, and then we have

465
00:33:24.599 --> 00:33:26.799
our eating, and then we have our lifestyle, and then

466
00:33:26.799 --> 00:33:30.039
we and we don't. We never pulled it all together,

467
00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:36.359
and so it hasn't been working now very well for

468
00:33:36.559 --> 00:33:40.400
many of us. So it's really nice to know how

469
00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:45.559
much my thoughts in my mind really has an impact

470
00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:52.720
on what's happening in my body. And you mentioned, you know,

471
00:33:52.880 --> 00:33:58.920
setting those boundaries and especially work and family and maintaining

472
00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:02.039
a healthy life. I never even thought about having a

473
00:34:02.759 --> 00:34:08.039
building a strategy for your for your lifestyle and things

474
00:34:08.079 --> 00:34:10.360
like that, because you know, those are things we were

475
00:34:10.400 --> 00:34:12.880
just never taught. We were just you know, get out

476
00:34:12.920 --> 00:34:15.199
of school, go to college, get a job, you know,

477
00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:19.760
pay the bills into life. I mean, that's that's what

478
00:34:19.760 --> 00:34:24.400
we've been told. We've never been told that you can

479
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:27.519
have dreams, you can work on your dreams, you can

480
00:34:27.559 --> 00:34:30.840
do the things that you dreamed of doing with the

481
00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:36.280
same energy and succeed and be happy. We just are

482
00:34:36.440 --> 00:34:39.920
out there just going through those steps. Go to school,

483
00:34:40.039 --> 00:34:43.519
go to college, get a job, buy a house, have

484
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:48.239
a kid. Life's over. And there's more to it. There

485
00:34:48.280 --> 00:34:51.599
really is more to it. And I don't think anyone

486
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:57.719
understands that, huh yeah, and yes, maintaining boundaries, I don't.

487
00:34:58.199 --> 00:35:02.400
I think most of us don't have the courage to

488
00:35:02.480 --> 00:35:08.280
say I don't like this. Mm hmm, this is my

489
00:35:08.400 --> 00:35:14.800
expectation and I need this to stop or I need

490
00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:17.239
to walk away mm hmm.

491
00:35:17.480 --> 00:35:23.119
Exect me. Yeah, that's yeah.

492
00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:23.760
Hm.

493
00:35:24.679 --> 00:35:28.880
Boundaries can be tough. And you know, it's like they're

494
00:35:28.880 --> 00:35:33.960
not walls. It's more like they're filters for your own peace.

495
00:35:35.239 --> 00:35:40.599
And you know, I kind of I viewed mine as

496
00:35:40.599 --> 00:35:45.280
like I look at it as you know, my energy protector, Like,

497
00:35:45.840 --> 00:35:49.440
so I know where to set them based on you

498
00:35:49.480 --> 00:35:54.480
know what what fills my cup and what empties it

499
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:58.239
or you know what dreams or restores my energy.

500
00:36:00.599 --> 00:36:06.480
Yeah, definitely, definitely the things that drains you. And everybody

501
00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:10.360
knows where those what they're where that is, it's like,

502
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:14.079
what steps do you do to stop that from happening?

503
00:36:14.719 --> 00:36:19.199
Is our decisions they have to make. But you just

504
00:36:19.280 --> 00:36:23.199
can't let someone drain you, or some job drain you,

505
00:36:23.559 --> 00:36:28.079
or something drain you and take away all your energy

506
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:30.679
from what it is that you really would love to

507
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:33.599
be doing, and you don't have the energy left because

508
00:36:33.639 --> 00:36:38.440
you've allowed all of these things to just just absolutely

509
00:36:38.480 --> 00:36:42.840
suck your life out. Shouldn't be letting letting that happen.

510
00:36:44.360 --> 00:36:49.679
What's your personal philosophy on food is medication versus you know,

511
00:36:50.559 --> 00:36:52.679
taking a bunch of paills for quick fixes.

512
00:36:53.320 --> 00:37:00.679
Oh yeah, Well, through my own personal personal experience, food medicine.

513
00:37:01.559 --> 00:37:04.280
Food is his hands down medicine. You know, everything that

514
00:37:04.320 --> 00:37:09.039
you eat in your body that's communicating something to your body,

515
00:37:09.159 --> 00:37:13.119
whether it's good or bad. So it teaches your body

516
00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:19.679
safety and stability. So like food is information, depending on

517
00:37:19.719 --> 00:37:26.280
what food you're putting in of course, So I focus

518
00:37:26.400 --> 00:37:29.760
on nourishment, not punishment, because nobody wants to be feeling

519
00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:34.519
that feeling of guilt, you know if I hate something.

520
00:37:37.800 --> 00:37:41.599
So it's like you can't out supplement or out discipline

521
00:37:41.840 --> 00:37:48.400
an overwhelmed nervous system. So tying food into that and

522
00:37:48.440 --> 00:37:51.639
those emotional connectors also plays a big role.

523
00:37:54.039 --> 00:37:58.360
You are really helping me, and I know you're helping

524
00:37:58.440 --> 00:38:06.320
the audience. I do make healthy meals and it's all natural,

525
00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:12.440
and I cook myself, but I never thought about food

526
00:38:12.519 --> 00:38:15.480
being medicines. I take my teas and herbs, but I

527
00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:21.039
never thought the fact food is medicine and it tells

528
00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:26.639
my body something when I eat it, or can change

529
00:38:26.639 --> 00:38:32.039
how I feel or whatever. I never thought about these things.

530
00:38:32.199 --> 00:38:35.719
I mean, you're really making us have a real concept

531
00:38:35.760 --> 00:38:40.159
as to what we're putting in our body really is important.

532
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:45.840
I mean it's really important. You're really helping me. This

533
00:38:45.920 --> 00:38:49.360
is such good news here. Oh good, I'm so glad,

534
00:38:49.760 --> 00:38:55.119
Oh my goodness. I mean, I'm going to have a gosh. Okay,

535
00:38:55.159 --> 00:38:59.360
there goes all those doughnuts and cakes and pies and chocolate.

536
00:39:01.000 --> 00:39:03.880
Now now I hear you feeling like you're gonna be

537
00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:04.960
missing something.

538
00:39:05.199 --> 00:39:09.039
But what we do, we would crowd out.

539
00:39:09.320 --> 00:39:14.559
So strouting out means like adding in the good stuff

540
00:39:15.119 --> 00:39:23.519
good enjoy, right, Like I don't tell my clients don't

541
00:39:23.519 --> 00:39:26.039
do this, don't do that, but instead we work in

542
00:39:26.119 --> 00:39:27.159
the good.

543
00:39:28.920 --> 00:39:32.039
Which helps with the mindset, and we find what you

544
00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:32.880
enjoy that.

545
00:39:33.000 --> 00:39:39.679
Is good, right right right? Definitely Definitely what's the most

546
00:39:39.719 --> 00:39:41.320
rewarding part of the work you do.

547
00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:47.840
Seeing my clients light up when they feel good again.

548
00:39:48.480 --> 00:39:53.159
So watching them realize, you know, being healthy doesn't have

549
00:39:53.239 --> 00:39:53.760
to be hard.

550
00:39:54.639 --> 00:40:00.840
And you know, the moment the woman say I find feel.

551
00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:05.079
Like myself again, like that's just everything and brings me joy.

552
00:40:05.639 --> 00:40:10.239
Oh yeah, absolutely. Like I said, I've I've got I

553
00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:14.039
have bells and whistles going off this like listening to

554
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:18.079
what you're saying. And I actually have a different mindset.

555
00:40:18.559 --> 00:40:22.000
So even when I'm cooking, I'm going to start paying

556
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:26.320
more attention. Even though I try to put specific things

557
00:40:27.159 --> 00:40:32.199
together for specific purposes. Years ago, I had a restaurant.

558
00:40:32.239 --> 00:40:38.599
I opened a restaurant specifically for health education, and I

559
00:40:38.639 --> 00:40:42.079
would have specific things in my meal and I would

560
00:40:42.159 --> 00:40:47.639
explain to you know, the customers that you know, you

561
00:40:47.679 --> 00:40:50.280
want to be eating these, and you want to eat this,

562
00:40:50.440 --> 00:40:54.320
and this is what organ it impacts, this is what

563
00:40:54.719 --> 00:40:58.239
disease that it can can help repair. I mean, just

564
00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:02.440
so it was just a really fun time I had,

565
00:41:02.719 --> 00:41:06.760
you know, just having Yeah. And so I started learning

566
00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:10.519
a lot about foods and how to combine them in

567
00:41:11.199 --> 00:41:16.840
which ones are really really helpful and and in fact,

568
00:41:17.920 --> 00:41:21.320
you know, I do use food to manage my health

569
00:41:21.559 --> 00:41:24.920
and things like that, to the point where I had

570
00:41:24.920 --> 00:41:28.679
a doctor drop me because he couldn't give me anything.

571
00:41:33.559 --> 00:41:36.719
It's like, no, I have tea for that, blah blah

572
00:41:36.719 --> 00:41:40.320
blah blah blah. So I finally probably figured out I

573
00:41:40.320 --> 00:41:42.280
can't make the money on urch, I need to bring

574
00:41:42.320 --> 00:41:45.800
somebody else in. So I dropped me as a patient.

575
00:41:45.880 --> 00:41:47.880
So now I have a great doctor. He's a young

576
00:41:47.920 --> 00:41:52.760
guy that listens to me and even believes in holistic medicines.

577
00:41:53.000 --> 00:41:56.719
And I'm like, wow, he is just great. So it

578
00:41:56.760 --> 00:41:57.360
was a good thing.

579
00:41:57.599 --> 00:42:00.960
But I love that.

580
00:42:01.719 --> 00:42:06.760
Yeah, it's just a learning more and more about all

581
00:42:06.800 --> 00:42:09.880
these things. And I always got in the habit if

582
00:42:09.880 --> 00:42:11.800
I look on the back and it's got a bunch

583
00:42:11.840 --> 00:42:14.960
of words in it that I can't even spell or

584
00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:17.440
don't even know what it is. Yeah, I know it's

585
00:42:17.480 --> 00:42:18.400
something I don't want to eat.

586
00:42:19.840 --> 00:42:24.519
That is a great like rule of thumb to follow. Wait, yeah, exactly.

587
00:42:25.039 --> 00:42:28.239
Yeah, And most things should only have three or four ingredients.

588
00:42:28.239 --> 00:42:32.039
When you got fifteen ingredients there there's something wrong that.

589
00:42:31.960 --> 00:42:34.239
You can't even pronounce. You don't even know what they are.

590
00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:37.920
That's a chemical. Don't eat it, don't eat it. Don't

591
00:42:37.960 --> 00:42:41.239
eat it. And I know, you know, I'll come from

592
00:42:41.280 --> 00:42:45.599
an arrow where you know, the women cooked holistic meals

593
00:42:45.639 --> 00:42:49.639
because they cook, you know, prepared their meals at home

594
00:42:49.679 --> 00:42:52.559
and didn't go out dining. But even when I dine,

595
00:42:53.119 --> 00:42:56.920
you know, I check restaurants, I read and see what

596
00:42:57.079 --> 00:43:00.239
kind of ingredients on their menus whether or not I'm

597
00:43:00.239 --> 00:43:02.960
going to go there and dine because I don't want

598
00:43:02.960 --> 00:43:05.360
to be ill. I don't want to be placed on

599
00:43:05.440 --> 00:43:08.760
medications and so, and I don't want to make you

600
00:43:08.880 --> 00:43:12.760
rich while you're while I'm you know, losing years on

601
00:43:12.840 --> 00:43:17.000
my life because of the foods I ate there. So, yeah,

602
00:43:17.119 --> 00:43:20.639
what we put in is important. We just don't eat

603
00:43:20.840 --> 00:43:27.559
just fill a space. We eat too. What talk to

604
00:43:27.599 --> 00:43:31.519
our body? I love you, Let me eat this. You've

605
00:43:31.519 --> 00:43:38.000
been ground. Yeah, it's fuel and it shouldn't be you know,

606
00:43:38.119 --> 00:43:41.199
hurting your body or you know, making you sick like

607
00:43:41.280 --> 00:43:45.000
you said, wake up in your stomach is you know?

608
00:43:45.320 --> 00:43:48.400
Or you can't sleep all night just because of the

609
00:43:48.440 --> 00:43:53.159
different foods you've put in. Really pay attention to what

610
00:43:53.360 --> 00:43:57.000
you are putting in your bodies because, like I said,

611
00:43:57.000 --> 00:44:01.280
it is fuel and it talks to you. Wow, I

612
00:44:01.320 --> 00:44:09.239
got a new attitude. Yes, I do amazing. What do

613
00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:17.360

of the things that they're eating.

00:46:52.119 --> 00:46:52.880
That's real.

651
00:46:53.000 --> 00:46:54.760
It calls on them a lot of problems.

652
00:46:55.519 --> 00:46:56.960

from there.

656
00:47:08.559 --> 00:47:14.719
Yep. Yeah, because like we both have suffered from a

657
00:47:14.800 --> 00:47:18.079
problem due to inflammation. And it's kind of interesting because,

658
00:47:18.079 --> 00:47:21.880
like I said, it's only seventeen and we were eating

659
00:47:22.239 --> 00:47:25.719
very wholesome foods, so I'm not sure how the inflammation.

660
00:47:25.960 --> 00:47:30.119
One thing I did learn when I had talk with

661
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:33.320
the woman that gave me the Devil's Claw, she told

662
00:47:33.360 --> 00:47:36.840
me not to eat white potatoes because there's an enzyme

663
00:47:36.880 --> 00:47:41.199
in it and people aren't aware that can cause the

664
00:47:41.239 --> 00:47:43.840
body sees it and wants to attack and can cause

665
00:47:43.920 --> 00:47:48.559
inflammation in the body. So not to eat don't eat

666
00:47:48.719 --> 00:47:54.880
white potatoes, don't eat you know, white bread and certain

667
00:47:55.159 --> 00:47:58.239
and the sugars. But when she told me that, change

668
00:47:58.280 --> 00:48:01.800
my diet. Start drinking that the Devil's claw. And when

669
00:48:01.840 --> 00:48:05.199
I first got it, it wasn't even when I first

670
00:48:05.199 --> 00:48:08.480
found out about it, it wasn't a tea. I was

671
00:48:08.519 --> 00:48:13.159
at this conference learning about herbs and plants and things

672
00:48:13.199 --> 00:48:16.599
like that, and so she walked up and I told her,

673
00:48:16.599 --> 00:48:18.280
I said, you look like my grandmother, and we were

674
00:48:18.320 --> 00:48:21.119
just talking and then I told her about, you know,

675
00:48:21.280 --> 00:48:25.039
the problem I had, and she explained what I needed

676
00:48:25.039 --> 00:48:27.800
to do, and she had a plant. She had the

677
00:48:27.840 --> 00:48:32.039
Devil's claw plant. There it to me and she said,

678
00:48:32.599 --> 00:48:36.000
you take the leaves off and then also get a

679
00:48:36.039 --> 00:48:40.159
little piece of this little little thing root thing that

680
00:48:40.280 --> 00:48:44.440
was on it and cut it up and make tea

681
00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:47.880
out of it. So I had the actual plant that

682
00:48:48.000 --> 00:48:49.079
I started using.

683
00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:53.000
Yeah, I'm gonna looks claw.

684
00:48:52.960 --> 00:48:53.880
Yeah, Devil's claw.

685
00:48:53.960 --> 00:48:54.199
Yeah.

686
00:48:54.519 --> 00:49:02.960
Well, the pharmaceutical industry actually uses it for steroids.

687
00:49:04.840 --> 00:49:05.119
Wow.

688
00:49:05.320 --> 00:49:09.920
So I said, oh, so you know the truth about it,

689
00:49:09.960 --> 00:49:11.840
and you made a pill, but I don't want the

690
00:49:11.840 --> 00:49:18.719
pill because they had me on that. So and so, yeah,

691
00:49:18.880 --> 00:49:21.800
it really helped a lot. It doesn't taste great, but

692
00:49:21.960 --> 00:49:24.440
even helped me when I was during I had COVID,

693
00:49:25.400 --> 00:49:29.400
before they even had medicines for COVID, I drank the

694
00:49:29.440 --> 00:49:33.039
Devil's Claw and it kept you know, inflammation from being

695
00:49:33.079 --> 00:49:37.119
around my heart and in my body, and so it

696
00:49:37.199 --> 00:49:41.760
was it. Really it's one of my favorites. Whenever I

697
00:49:41.800 --> 00:49:45.440
feel the inflammation, I'm pretty in tuned to what that

698
00:49:45.480 --> 00:49:46.039
feels like.

699
00:49:46.960 --> 00:49:50.239
Yeah, yeah, thanks for sharing. I appreciate that.

700
00:49:50.599 --> 00:49:54.480
Yeah, it's really good. And then I drink a lot

701
00:49:54.480 --> 00:50:00.440
of hibiscus tea that is an anti inflammatory to all good.

702
00:50:01.559 --> 00:50:04.920
So yeah, it's it's just been wonderful. I really want
