Start Times and Segments:

[0:00:16] What’s On Your Mind: Many people talk about spoiling themselves as self-care – eating sweets or pampering with a spa day, etc. We see self-care differently. We talk about an article that resonates with us.

[0:09:42] Expanding Minds Interview: [Physical Wellness] We interview Martin Pytela, who gives science lessons about important aspects of nutrition. He explains macronutrients (which give us energy we need day-to-day) and micronutrients (which protect us from damage done when macronutrients burn in the energy creating process). Martin talks about metabolic typing, where autonomic dominant and oxidizer dominant people process energy in different ways. There are differences in endocrine dominance. You could be dominated by thyroid, adrenal or pituitary. Each has a different preference when it comes to food. He explains how antioxidants work. We talk about different types of toxins and the need to eliminate them, including how moving that body (one of our podcast themes) helps the process. He asks us to consider three processes: appropriation (what you put in), absorption (what you keep); and elimination (what you get rid of). If any one of these three is impacted, you have deficits.

[0:30:34] Adventures of the Starving Artist: Cameron got busy when he thought he was about to have down-time to chill out.

[0:35:38] Move That Body: We’re back to gym etiquette -Part 3

[0:42:15] Running Popup: John likes Michael A. Singer’s sailing analogy from his book The Untethered Soul, when it comes to balance. It’s about avoiding the extremes.

[0:44:43] Flipside of the Coin: Elise and Stephen took lessons from teaching children in Korea (and for Stephen in the U.S. as well). It helps them when teaching students in Canada.
