EPISODE #150- Health Span vs Morbidity Span w/ Don Moxley

What does longevity mean to you?
The Doctor Dads bring Don Moxley on to the podcast to talk about all things longevity.
LONGEVITY LABS+ DIRECTOR OF APPLIED SCIENCE & CO-CREATOR OF HRV+
Don Moxely is a leader in the sports and performance space with 30 years of experience. Formerly a captain and Big 10 Championship winner for Ohio State University, Don later served as the school’s first sports scientist. Through his work on HRV and human optimization, Don created a method of predicting match outcomes based on athlete's health metrics. With this method, Don helped athletes win two olympic medals, four world championships, seven National Championships, and  produced a total of 23 All-Americans. Since his time at Ohio State, Don’s focus has been to advance human performance and optimization for the masses, working in wearable technologies, fitness, and nutraceuticals.
Don drops some amazing nuggets about the importance of starting now to decrease your morbidity span and increase your health span.
Did you know the average lifespan now is 76 years old?
Did you know most people's health span is 62 years?
That means the last 14 years of life you will spend in poor health having the american healthcare system vacuum you financially as you slowly waste away.
So what does Don say about longevity..... Longevity is all about increasing your health span and compressing the morbidity span.
Don shares 4 rocks in the jar of longevity:
Movement
Nutrient Dense Food/Supplementation
Sleep
Light
Purpose (JAR)
Other topics we dive into:

EPISODE #149- MAKING HEALTHY HABITS - What are you measuring to create your process?

Habits......
We have good and bad habits in our lifestyles. Our nervous system plays a huge role in how we maintain healthy habits and our healthy habits play a major role in how we regulate our nervous system.
Dr. David and Dr. Nick discuss the importance of understanding what needs to be measured to get the result you want in your health. You won't hit your target if your measuring the wrong things. This can lead you down the wrong path which will ultimately lead to a loss of motivation to achieve your goal. 
They also chat about focusing your energy on your process, not the result. This is a vital piece to the puzzle when working towards your goals.
Discussed as well:
-How to bypass the mind to improve motivation and regulation
-How to create a healthy biorhythm throughout your day
-Modern Tools to regulate your nervous system
-Finding time for self-care

Episode #148- BIOCHARGER - Transform Your Well-Being With Vital Natural Energies

Dr. David just added a Biocharger NG to the Vitality Lab at Wardy Wellness and is super pumped to share with Dr. Nick and our audience what this amazing technology is capable of for our well-being.
93% OF OUR TIME IS SPENT INDOORS
That's 22.5 hours a day inside, blocked from vital energies, and surrounded by harmful man-made energies. Our modern-day lifestyle is a prescription for poor health!
 
What are vital natural energies?
Vital natural energies have been seen and felt by healers and energy-sensitive people for thousands of years. They have been described as electromagnetic wavelengths, rates of vibration, patterns of pulsation, and the dynamic infrastructure of the body.
Vital natural energies regulate optimized cellular function. Consequently, a lack of this energy correlates to an energy and healing crisis for the body. If a lack or imbalance of this energy is experienced, cell dysfunction occurs, resulting in sub-optimal health, physical performance, or recovery from injury.
 
VITAL ENERGIES
LIGHT
Not the light of a lightbulb or the Sun, but naturally occurring elemental gases vibrating at the speed of light, including Argon, Xenon, Krypton, Neon, Helium, and Iodine, produce the Light component of the BioCharger NG.
FREQUENCIES & HARMONICS
Frequencies & Harmonics found in nature are produced by electric discharge from natural phenomena like lightning strikes within our solar system and beyond. Each lightning discharge generates random frequencies & harmonics, making it nearly impossible to target specific frequencies for particular outcomes directly from nature. The BioCharger NG harnesses electric discharge to deliver customized frequencies & harmonics with unlimited benefits.
PEMF
The BioCharger NG facilitates an amplified and optimized transfer of electrons in and around your body without needing to leave the house, generating an effect familiar to individuals who practice 'Earthing' or 'Grounding.' Unlike most PEMF devices, the BioCharger NG software fine-tunes PEMF therapies to different frequencies throughout each session without needing to be attached to any devices.
VOLTAGE
The voltage supplied by the BioCharger NG is similar to the lightning discharges on Earth and other naturally occurring cosmic events, such as solar flares. These cosmic phenomena create a voltage field of hundreds of millions of volts within our atmosphere.

Episode #145 - Institute of Human Anatomy w/ Justin Cottle

The Doctor Dads interview Justin Cottle, Lab Director and Content Creator of Institute of Human Anatomy.
Founded in 2012, the Institute of Human Anatomy is a private human cadaver lab dedicated to providing anatomical, physiological, health, wellness, and fitness education to health professionals, pre-license students, and via social media, to the general public. They work directly with career and vocational colleges, accrediting agencies, medical device companies, and individual healthcare and wellness professionals to further advance education and medical understanding of the human body and its many systems.
 
Since 2014, Justin had been teaching in both the classroom and lab with the help of fully embalmed (preserved) human cadavers. They do all the dissections in-house, and it’s been his job to maintain the cadavers, as well as teach with them when groups come for in-person labs.
In late 2019, Justin took the company online and began posting cadaveric based content on TikTok, of all places. It’s not hyperbole to say that they were an overnight success.Since then, they now have 16M+ followers on social media and 900M+ videos viewed.Their mission is simple; educate as many people as possible about the one thing we all carry with us for the entirety of our lives — our bodies.
 
In this episode we dive into the fun work that Justin gets to do daily. Justin shares his favorite parts of the human body and we get into talks about the variations of anatomy found in the human body, the brain and nervous system, the extracellular matrix (fascia), the heart, and more.

Episode #144- TRUSCIENCE Liquid Collagen w/ Dr. Brett Brimhall

We all know have been told how important collagen is. In the past few years people have been loading up on collagen to address all kinds of health issues from gut problems, joint pain, hair, skin, nails, and more. The reality is we just aren't seeing the results.
Dr. Brett Brimhall joins us on the podcast to discuss a liquid collagen supplement that is different in many ways.
What we discuss:
-Life vantage Difference
-The importance of activating collagen
-Nutrigenomics: Nutrigenomics is a field that combines the study of nutrition and gene expression. Scientists working in this field investigate how nutrients and other bioactive components in food affect important metabolic and physiological processes by “turning on” or “turning off” certain genes.
-The results people are experiencing with Truscience Liquid Collagen
Liquid Collagen is a different, better collagen supplement. Your body’s ability to produce its own collagen decreases significantly starting in your 20s. This daily boost of collagen and exclusive botanicals activates your body’s collagen production, replenishes your depleting collagen levels, and maintains those levels by reducing enzymes that break down collagen. It also helps protect against the damaging effects of oxidative stress, caused by free radicals. The proprietary ingredients in this delicious blend have been clinically shown to deliver visible support to skin health and hydration in 8 weeks or less. Your skin looks smoother, softer, and more even, with improved elasticity. With more youthful looking skin, you’ll glow with True Confidence. You get real results that you can see and feel.
TrueScience. True Results.
Results from a cell culture study on a key ingredient in Liquid Collagen showed collagen density increased by 100%.
Clinical trials on key ingredients showed improvements after 8 weeks.* Individual results will vary.
Increased collagen density by 42%*
Increased catalase (antioxidant) by 202%*
Increased skin moisture by 18%*
Increased brightness by 5%*
Increased smoothness by 10%*
Decreased depth of crow's feet by 22%*
Improved appearance of pores and spots by 10%*
 
A cell-culture study on red quinoa revealed how this ingredients works to help support health skin*:
Increased activation of SOD gene up to 27 times to produce antioxidants that can help defend skin cells from oxidative stress.*
Upregulated epidermal barrier structure genes (TGM1, KRT1, KRT10) by up to 5 times to support skin's strength and resilience.*
Upregulated gene that provides instructions on how to make parts of Type I collagen (COL1A2) by 43% to support collagen production.*
Downregulated activity of gene that produces enzymes responsible for degrading collagen (MMP9) by up to 33% to help maintain collagen you already have.*
What's in it?
10 types of naturally derived collagen peptides ((I, II, V, VIII, IX, X, XI, XVII, XVIII, XXVIII)
No added sugar or artificial sweeteners
Gluten-free, dairy-free, non-GMO

SOMATICS

Our ability to produce and process energy daily is dependent on the mind-body connection. The more efficiency in the flow of our nervous system the better the rhythm our systems are in and the better we feel. Any loss of this flow or rhythm leads us to imbalances that eventually lead to symptoms.
Understanding this enables us to understand that when we have chronic pain or problems the answer lies within you finding more connection with your mind and body.
Dr. David and Dr. Nick chat about the science of SOMATICS and focus the lens more on a rehabilitation environment.
The Doctor Dads chat about:
The science of Somatics
Sensory-motor amnesia
Pandiculation
Why passive stretching and strengthening have a short-term benefit and don’t correct long-term dysfunction
Using Somatics to rehab and fix chronic pain
Finding the right practitioner to help you map your nervous system to find the root problems
Somatics describes any practice that uses the mind-body connection to help you survey your internal self and listen to signals your body sends about areas of pain, discomfort, or imbalance. These practices allow you to strengthen the mind-body connection through increased awareness and voluntary activation.
Somatic therapy involves learning how to calm or discharge stress, tension and trauma. These techniques can include breathing exercises, neuromuscular rehabilitation, mindfulness and other body movement techniques. Somatic therapy techniques are mind-body focused to help us calm our nervous systems that have been overloaded by stress and reconnect the brain to the body.

AIRWAYS- Biological Dentistry -- Oral and Overall Health

We have a returning guest on this week's podcast. Dr. Noha Oushy DDS joins us again for a continuation of the discussion we had with her in episode 112. 
The mouth is a window into your body and our smile has an impact on our entire health. Taking a holistic wellness approach when getting care for your teeth and mouth is essential to prevent certain illnesses and disease.
From safely removing amalgams to infection and bacteria that can enter the bloodstream through the mouth which can lead to heart disease, respiratory infections, as well as other health issues. Our bite, tongue, and jaw influences our airway which is the main way we breath life force energy (oxygen) daily.
Biological Dentistry factors in the connection between mouth and body into every examination and treatment provided to help patients achieve a lifetime of great health.
We continue our conversation and dive into airways. Conditions like ADD & ADHD and Sleep apnea are some of the more common conditions that can be associated with an airway problem. Symptoms like:
Chronic Snoring
Dry Mouth and Lips
Headaches
Insomnia
Lack of Energy During the Day
Mood and Behavioral Changes
Sore Throat
Waking Up Gasping for Air
There are many things in our mouth that can cause an airway problem. Dr. Oushy schools us on what she looks for, why, and the type of solutions necessary sometimes to correct these problems.
Dr. Oushy is proudly the only dentist in El Paso and southern New Mexico to be SMART (Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique) certified by the IAOMT, Accredited as a Biological dentist by the IAOMT and certified with the IABDM.

The Health Benefits of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) is a treatment in which a patient breathes air or varying amounts of oxygen while inside a pressurized chamber, the pressure being anything above 1 atmosphere. The healing power of oxygen is not something new. The use of hyperbaric therapy dates back nearly 350 years. The very first hyperbaric chamber was created in 1662 with the clinical use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy starting in the mid 1800s. During the 1960s, studies began to show a wide variety of beneficial uses for HBOT therapy. Today, there are over 150 internationally approved conditions for which hyperbaric oxygen therapy has been shown to be effective and beneficial.
Under normal circumstances, oxygen is absorbed into circulation when we breathe and transported throughout the body only by red blood cells.  Under pressure, oxygen can be dissolved into all of the body’s fluids, the plasma, the lymphatic system, the central nervous system fluids, and the bone. This allows us to dissolve, transport and deliver many more times the normal oxygen to our tissues and cells.
It has long been known that healing many areas of the body cannot take place without appropriate oxygen levels in the tissue. In many cases, such as circulatory problems and non-healing wounds, adequate oxygen cannot easily reach the damaged area.
Oxygen can be carried to areas where circulation is diminished or blocked. In this way, extra oxygen can reach the damaged tissues helping the body to support its own healing process. The increased oxygen enhances the ability of white blood cells to kill bacteria, reduces swelling and allows new blood vessels to grow more rapidly into the affected areas. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is safe and effective and provides this extra oxygen absorption with minimal side effects.
10 PRIMARY BENEFITS OF HBOT
Increased oxygen perfusion- (Immediate increase in free floating oxygen available for tissue use)
Neovascularization- Angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth)
Increased white blood cell function (improved neutrophil and macrophage activity)
Nerve healing factors (increases in VegF, BDNF, HIF1)
Wound healing Increased capacity for healing (PDGF, VegF, collagen production circulatory healing)
Stem cell release (up to 8-fold increase in mesenchymal and CNS stem cells)
Vasoconstriction (decrease edema and swelling from damaged tissues)
Mitochondrial healing (increase in size, shape and number of mitochondria)

Episode #133- Hydrogen Water w/ Paul Barattiero Founder & CEO of Synergy Science

The Doctor Dads sit down with Paul Barattiero Founder and CEO of Synergy Science the developers of Echo Hydrogen water machines. 
The benefits of hydrogen have been known and studied for some time. Its just in the past decade that it's finally being promoted for his benefits to our health.
Hydrogen water is simply water with dissolved molecular hydrogen gas (H2). Hydrogen gas is separated from a stream of water during electrolysis. Then, its dissolved into a second stream of water. Hydrogen has been shown to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation, which is the leading cause of disease. Hydrogen’s therapeutic benefits are displayed in nearly 1,000 scientific studies and articles, spanning over 12 years.
Paul schools us on the therapeutic benefits of hydrogen water and what someone should expect from regular usage of drinking it. As stated above, the main benefit that hydrogen gives us is a decrease in oxidative stress and inflammation which is the root cause of all disease. He also shares other benefits like improved digestion, reduced sensitivities to dairy and gluten, and more with regular drinking of hydrogen water.
The Echo hydrogen water machine that they have developed is unique in many ways compared to other machines on the market. Their machine requires no cleaning of the calcium build-up that accumulates over time from the electrolysis to separate the hydrogen from the oxygen. It also includes an energy medicine feature to imprint your water with homeopathics in real time from an app on your phone that you can subscribe to for a small monthly fee. If you cant afford one of their main machines they offer affordable solutions like a pitcher and tumblers that will produce hydrogen water as well.

Episode124- Shadow Work - Addressing conflict in our lives to heal

When it comes to finding growth and evolution in our health and as a human being we must be willing to face both the light and the dark side of ourselves.
Many of us choose to stay in the light and avoid the darkness. At first this can seem to be the best route to take, but in the long run this leads to avoidance of addressing the part of us that needs the healing and the growth to truly evolve and make changes within ourselves.
Shadow or conflict work is an essential part of healing. It enables us to step into a part of ourselves that needs healing. Finding awareness of what creates conflict and why helps us move towards acceptance so our future actions and behaviors can truly change. Otherwise we get stuck in the same behaviors and patterns and will not see the change we want.
The Doctor Dads dive deep into shadow/conflict work. They share some of their personal stories on the subject and give guidance in where to start when going down the rabbit hole.

Episode 123- Restore Your S-Curve

If you wore your spine on your face you would probably take better care of it. Our spine is anatomically the most important part of our structure. It houses and protects our master system (the nervous system), it keeps us erect all day, it handles force and load continuously, and it plays the major role in how well we move.
Some of the more obvious contributors to poor spinal health are physical stressors like too much sitting/not sitting properly, lack of movement, poor mobility, poor lifting techniques, atrophy of musculature that surrounds the spine, poor sleeping postures, and trauma.
The reality is your nervous system has to deal with three types of stress continuously. Physical stress, biochemical stress, and mental/emotional stress all contribute to the structural integrity of our spine and our nervous system.
The health of our S- Curve or posture is an essential part of our overall health. Poor posture creates more physical stress on the body and effects the way we move and handle load and force. Chronic back pain affects millions of people and is easily avoided by taking care of yourself from the inside out. 
Dr. David and Dr. Nick interview Eileen Durfee from Creatrix Solutions. Eileen tells us her pain to purpose story that led her to owning and operating her online health and wellness website Creatrix Solutions. On her website you can find air purifiers, ozone machines, NIR saunas, skin care, enema kits, and more. 
We steer our conversation towards some of the structural health tools she sells and has helped create and develop. We dive deep into the BACK TRAC, THE NECK SHAPER, and her specially designed SPINAL FOAM ROLLERS that help you restore your s-curve.
Learn the importance of how the proper shape of your spine influences your health and get solutions to address it in this episode.

Episode 122- Growth Hormone - Shed Fat, Build Muscle, Increase Energy, Quicken Recovery

Our bodies are full of hormones that support our bodies ability to deal with stress, heal, recover, burn fat, grow, have energy, and much more.
Growth Hormone is in abundance from birth and slowly decreases over our lifetime.
Our lifestyle and habits influences how all of our hormones work in our bodies. The truth is that our choices of how we mange our health influences whether or not our hormones will work for us or against us.
Dr. Nick and Dr. David dive into the do’s and don’ts of our lifestyle habits when it comes to supporting our bodies own growth hormone production.
When we eat, what we eat, when we exercise, how we exercise, how well we sleep and how we recover all influence our GH levels. Knowing some basic rules of how our bodies work goes a long way when you are trying to reach your health goals.
Listen to this great episode and get some tips on how to improve your GH levels to improve your overall health and wellness.

Episode #121- Straight A Formula Of Conscious Change

Albert Einstein said, “No problem can be solved at the consciousness level at which it was created.”
The key to solving your problem lies in raising your conscious awareness.”
— Traci J. Dobrev
Dr. Nick and Dr. David discuss the Straight A Formula of Conscious Change. Our ability to get well is heavily weighted on our willingness for change.
There are many models that map how change is made. For the most part it starts with awareness then we move into acceptance and we finish in action. Don’t forget achievement as the final stage.
Having a better practice with how we deal with our emotional stress, changing our habits, starting something new is an important part of self care.
In order for us to grow and evolve our self care practice and tools for success must grow as well.
 

Episode #120- GMB - Don’t Die Without Exploring What Your Body Is Truly Capable Of w/ Ryan Hurst

You probably stopped learning and practicing new physical skills sometime in early childhood – you crawled, you walked, you ran, you jumped… then what happened?

Episode #117- Clean Meat - Can growing meat without animals revolutionize the world?

Since the dawn of Homo sapiens some quarter million years ago, animals have satiated our species’ desire for meat. But with our growing population and global demand for animal products increasing, raising such huge numbers of animals for food poses serious challenges.
But…what if we could have our meat and eat it too? Enter clean meat.
Just as we need clean energy to compete with fossil fuels, clean meat is poised to become a competitor of factory farms. Clean meat isn’t an alternative to meat; it’s real, actual meat grown (or brewed!) from animal cells, as well as other clean animal products that ditch animal cells altogether and are simply built from the molecule up.
In this groundbreaking book, author Paul Shapiro tells the wild tale of the innovators and investors racing to commercialize the world’s first real animal products that are grown without animals.
 
Paul Shapiro is the author of the national bestseller Clean Meat: How Growing Meat Without Animals Will Revolutionize Dinner and the World. He’s also the CEO of The Better Meat Co., a four-time TEDx speaker, the host of the Business for Good Podcast, and a long-time leader in food sustainability.
Paul is an authority figure on food and agricultural sustainability. He is a regular podcast guest and has been invited on hundreds of news outlets, including StarTalk Radio with Neil deGrasse Tyson, The Rich Roll Podcast, and CNN. He’s also published hundreds of articles ranging from daily newspapers such as The Washington Post to pop-sci publications like Scientific American as well as magazines like FORTUNE and academic journals.
Shapiro lives in Sacramento, California with his wife Toni Okamoto Shapiro, author and founder of Plant-Based on a Budget, and their very friendly pit bull, Eddie.

Episode #110- Heart Focused Healing w/ Rob Wergin (Part 2)

The Doctor Dads dive into a live heart focused healing for part 2 with Rob Wergin. Find a comfortable space, kick back, and join The Doctor Dads as Rob guides us through one of his heart focused healings live on the podcast.
This was an incredible experience and is a powerful example of the healing power when one connects with their heart and removes the mind from the equation. Tune in and join us for this live healing event.
Rob joined us on Episode #102 A Conduit of Divine Love and Light which was an amazing episode where we dove deep into the power of self healing. Be sure to check it out.
 
Rob has dedicated his life to contributing to the uplifting benefit, healing and welfare of others. Having been raised in a strictly Christian home in the heart of South Dakota’s Native American culture, Rob draws inspiration from both rich traditions and works with people of all ages, religions and spiritual persuasions.
Rob believes that less-than-loving physical, mental, and emotional experiences create energetic stagnation and blockages in the mind and body that often lead to disease, dysfunction, distress, disconnection or despair. However, these blocks “are actually gifts,” says Rob, “gifts created by our soul and by the Divine, powerful and packaged in ways we cannot ignore. And because we cannot ignore them, we are given the opportunity to do something about them.” With hands-on healing and Divine Energy transmissions, Rob helps to clear old patterns, experiences, and beliefs – a process that releases pain, disease and addictions.
Subsequently, when reconnecting to Divine energy, balance is restored, and the mind and body are filled with unconditional love and light. Blockages and stagnation are released, old wounds are healed, dis-ease is dismissed, and many aspects of life are transformed as one reconnects with their true expression.
Rob has been sponsored by Agape International Spiritual Center, The Omega Institute, Mile High Church in Denver, 1440 Multiversity, the 2019 Healing Congress in Stuttgart, Germany, and many more. Rob identifies his “gift” as being a clear and sacred conduit for Divine God/Goddess Love and Light, the instrument of healing.
Rob is also featured in the full-length documentary film HEAL, along with Deepak Chopra, Michael Beckwith, Bruce Lipton, Gregg Braden and others.

Episode #108- PLAYING IN THE DIRT - The key to sustainable health!

The similarities and connections of the human body and mother earth are undeniable. Each harnessing energy and working to maintain homeostasis to survive and thrive.

There is a mirroring of our relationship with mother earth and the awareness of our health and how our bodies function. Connecting barefoot by grounding, getting our hands in the dirt and growing our own food, eating energy rich food that the soil provides, to understanding the seasons of both healing and our planet all give us a better understanding about the principles of what feeds health and what feeds disease for both us and our planet.
We are not separate from mother earth and must start moving back to a lifestyle that maintains connection to her.

Whether you are religious or spiritual there is a common ground that we all need to find when it comes to the connection that we all share. If you can find it for yourself it can be life changing and bring you closer to who you are and the role you play on your journey.
The Doctor Dads sit down with Neil Donald Walsch and discuss this predicament we are in as a collective and how we need to evolve our idea of what connects us all and in doing so shift the very world we live in into something better for humanity as we move forward.
 
Neale Donald Walsch is a modern day spiritual messenger whose words continue to touch the world in profound ways. With an early interest in religion and a deeply felt connection to spirituality, Neale spent the majority of his life thriving professionally, yet searching for spiritual meaning before experiencing his now famous conversation with God. The Conversations with God series of books that emerged from those encounters has been translated into 37 languages, touching millions and inspiring important changes in their day-to-day lives.
Neale has written 39 books on spirituality and its practical application in everyday life. Titles in the With God series include: Conversations with God, Books 1-3; Friendship with God; Communion with God; The New Revelations; Tomorrow’s God; What God Wants; and Home with God. Seven of the books in that series reached the New York Times Bestseller List, CWG-Book 1 occupying that list for over two-and-a-half years. His most recent books are When Everything Changes Change Everything (2010), The Storm Before the Calm (2011), The Only Thing That Matters (2012), What God Said (2013), GOD'S MESSAGE TO THE WORLD: You've God Me All Wrong (2014), and Conversations with God: Awaken the Species (Book 4) (2017).
His newest book is The God Solution, was published in December, 2020 by Phoenix Books.
Conversations with God has redefined God and shifted spiritual paradigms around the globe. In order to deal with the enormous response to his writings, Neale has created several outreach projects, including the CWG Foundation, CWG for Parents, Humanity’s Team, the CWG Helping Outreach, and The Global Conversation --- all accessible at the “hub” website www.CWGPortal.com, and all dedicated to help the world move from violence to peace, from confusion to clarity, and from anger to love.
Neale's work has taken him from the steps of Macchu Picchu in Peru to the steps of the Shinto shrines of Japan, from Red Square in Moscow to St. Peters Square in Vatican City to Tiananmen Square in China. And everywhere he has gone --- from South Africa to Norway, Croatia to The Netherlands, the streets of Zurich to the streets of Seoul --- Neale has experienced a hunger among the people to find a new way to live, at last, in peace and harmony, and he has sought to bring people a new understanding of life and of God which would allow them to experience that.

Episode #106- NLP Neuro-Linguistic Programming w/ Jan Marszalek

Neuro-Linguistic Programming
Most of us communicate in only one form of communication. Some are blessed to communicate in more than one, most without being aware of this. In order to truly connect and establish rapport with others we have to communicate with them in their primary form of communication. Visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and auditory digital are some of the different streams of communication by which we all communicate.
NLP is a state of the art set of communication methods for enhancing personal and professional development and for creating personal change gracefully. NLP is also described as software for your brain -- allowing you to automatically tap into the kind of experiences you want to have.
It lets you model, and/or copy, human excellence in any form. With NLP, you can identify what makes someone exceptionally skilled, and get that skill for yourself or teach it to others. NLP can help you become adept in whatever is important to you, whether that means getting along with your family and co-workers or being more effective on the job.
NLP is valuable wherever human communication skills can enhance results -- in business, consultation, management, negotiations, education, counseling, therapy, relationships, parenting, nursing, public speaking, sports performance and many other areas.
NLP can allow spousal relationships to improve becoming stronger and healthier, parents to understand and communicate with their children better, children to realize how powerful their thoughts are and make better decisions and accomplish great results, a salesperson to significantly increase their business, a therapist to change the impact of the past in a client, a teacher to change a poor speller into a good speller, a business person to gain rapport non verbally and to run meetings efficiently, an athlete to improve concentration, and more. The results you get depend on the specific application, and with NLP there are many.
