We continue this series on Heal Thy Self that we kicked off with veteran holistic physician Dr. Bradley Nelson. His best-selling book "The Emotion Code" provides step-by-step instructions for working with the body's energy healing power. His new book is, “The Body Code: Unlocking Your Body's Ability to Heal Itself,” and it is our muse for this discussion. The methods he talks about have some basis in science but require…some faith and mind expanding. I found enough people testifying to Dr Nelson and his concepts that I wanted to discuss it more, and when I find people who are influencing lots of people, and people I respect, I want to know more. This is an exploration of possibility. It doesn’t mean I understand and follow it all. To help, I have here with me today Randy James, Medical Doctor and Functional Medicine expert, and my dear friend. We’re going to talk about the concept, respectfully, candidly and with as little bias as possible.

I’m back with veteran holistic physician Dr. Bradley Nelson to walk through what drives him in the key areas of life. What does he value and what are the habits he employs to walk out those values. Dr. Nelson is one of the world’s foremost experts on natural methods of achieving wellness and is the creator of The Emotion Code and The Body Code system, which were the topics of our first episode together. His best-selling book "The Emotion Code" provides step-by-step instructions for working with the body's energy healing power and his new book is, “The Body Code: Unlocking Your Body's Ability to Heal Itself,” and it is our muse for this discussion.

We kick off a series on Healing. Your body's ability to heal itself. Physically and psychologically. Every day we are exposed to things that compromise our very beings. Just going through the day, taxes us and at the end, we sleep, and while we sleep, we expect to, hope to, recharge so we can do it again. This is an aspect of healing. But now we are going to go deeper into the acute issues of our lives and why we are or are not, healing sufficiently. And of course what we can do to greatly increase our healing. My expert for the series is veteran holistic physician Dr. Bradley Nelson who is one of the world’s foremost experts on natural methods of achieving wellness. He is the creator of The Emotion Code and The Body Code system, and is the CEO of Discover Healing, a holistic education platform that provides training and certifies practitioners worldwide. His best-selling book "The Emotion Code" provides step-by-step instructions for working with the body's energy healing power.

I wrap up our series on Strong Body Strong Mind and I’m going to give you a paradigm shifting analogy that I believe will forever change how you view your brain’s ability in regards to the overall health of your body. I kicked off the series with Dr. Gabrielle Lyon whose focus is Muscle Centric Medicine. Her new book is called Forever Strong: A New, Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well. The focus was on how muscle, built by protein and resistance training, is key for our brain health and long term cognitive ability. This concept is a cultural shift. Then I brought on Randy James, my close friend, medical doctor and Functional Medicine expert, to talk about his experience with patients and his own growing understanding of the importance of skeletal muscle as it relates to overall health. Here now, I give you some highlights from the conversations, and again, an analogy I believe will greatly alter how you view and care for the future health of your brain.

We continue our series on Strong Body Strong Mind and How To Remain Fully Capable As You Age. My catalyst for this series is Dr Gabrielle Lyon whose expertise is Muscle-Centric Medicine, and that is our muse, how in our search for long term health often misses the vital role of skeletal muscle. Gabrielle’s new book is Forever Strong: A New, Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well and her podcast is The Dr Gabrielle Lyon Show. Here, I’m with my great friend, Randy James, Medical Doctor and Functional Medicine expert. He works directly, hand in hand with patients every day who are seeking to live long and live well. You can find him at truelifemedicine.com.

I’m back with Dr Gabrielle Lyon to find out what drives her, to dig into her values and how she walks them out in her life. We start off talking about spirituality and Gabrielle shares the gravity she faces as she deals with actual life and death with patients. We talk about her navy seal husband who never complains. We of course talk at length about health and wellness and her own habits and get into how and why she is so driven. Dr. Lyon again, is board certified in family medicine and is a subject-matter expert and educator in the practical application of protein types and levels for health, performance, aging, and disease prevention. Which we dove deep into in my part one conversation.

We are talking about aging well. Specifically, maintaining our mental and physical strength and capacity, as long as possible. The media talks about lifespan, but what I care about is health span. I want to be healthy and able to the end, whether my end is 60 years old or 100. As opposed to lingering for the last 5 or 20 years as is getting to be the norm. A tragic norm. My expert on the topic is Dr Gabrielle Lyon. I’ve known of Dr Lyons for a long, long time through Functional Medicine circles. Her focus and expertise is Muscle-Centric Medicine, and today we are talking about just that…muscle, and how we are missing this necessity in our culture that is obsessed with so many of the wrong things for aging well.

Our catalyst for this series is Dr Benjamin Hardy and the concept of his new book with renowned business coach, Dan Sullivan, 10x is easier than 2x: How World-Class Entrepreneurs Achieve More By Doing Less. While I’ll testify that the entrepreneurial mindset is key for embracing this 10x concept, you don’t have to be that actual entrepreneur. You can harness other methodologies, which we covered some in part two and I’ll review again here. If you’ve ever heard the concept of 10x, you haven’t heard it this way. It’s not just thinking big, but requires thinking completely differently. And as Ben & Dan showcase, it’s actually easier this way. That is THE point. In part two I dissected the issue more with my Dad, Dan Miller, renowned author of 48 Days To The Work & Life You Love and host of the 48 Days podcast. We really dug into the self image issues around being able to consider a 10x mentality. I feel this is the crux of whether you will be able to actually leverage the concept in your own life and work. From the three conversations, I’ve pulled out six primary highlights. Join me to walk and talk through them.

We continue our talk on Thinking Big. Part 1 was with Dr Benjamin Hardy who recently co-authored a book with famed business coach, Dan Sullivan, called 10x Is Easier Than 2x. Ben sent me an early copy of the book and I didn’t pick it up until my Dad texted me saying he’d read the book and it was revolutionizing his business. So fittingly I brought on my Dad to discuss this 10x concept further. My Dad of course is…Dan Miller, author of 48 Days To The Work – and Life – You Love, host of the 48 Days To The Work You Love podcast and one of the most well known influencers in business and personal development. He’s also a lifelong learner and for him to say, after a lifetime of successfully running businesses and today mentoring so many others in their businesses, that this concept is revolutionary to him, you’re going to want to hear why. What we uncovered was the need to consider who you are, to entertain the 10x of impossible progress. It may or may not fit you, but there is a workaround to doing it anyway that fits exactly who you are.
