• 235. The Role of Insulin in Brain Function With Dr. Georgia Ede (Central Insulin Resistance Explained!)
    May 15 2024

    In today’s episode, nutritional psychiatrist Dr. Georgia Ede explores how insulin resistance, marked by elevated insulin levels, can profoundly affect cognitive and mental well-being. From anxiety and depression to ADHD, autism, and bipolar disorder, she unveils the intricate relationship between insulin dynamics and brain function.

    Insulin, a key player in regulating glucose utilization for energy, is vital for proper brain cell function. Yet, when insulin levels fluctuate, brain cells may falter, giving rise to cognitive challenges. Ede further discussed how maternal hyperglycemia and diabetes can heighten the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in children.

    However, navigating stress and sleep deprivation poses hurdles to reaping the full benefits of ketosis. Dr. Ede underscores the importance of maintaining optimal insulin and glucose levels, advocating for the ketogenic diet as a sustainable pathway to sustained ketosis.

    Join Dr. Georgia Ede as she delves into the broader landscape of brain health, tackling topics such as inflammation, oxidative stress, and the profound impact of diet on cognitive function. Her message is clear: by nourishing, protecting, and energizing the brain through mindful dietary choices, we pave the way for enhanced mental resilience.

  • 230. Train Your Mind, Crush Your Goals With Dr. Lydia Spirawk
    Apr 10 2024

    That car cut you off again! You immediately yell back. You get home and your children are screaming, and you have no idea what’s for dinner. You react and yell. Later, you emotionally eat your way through a box of Girl Scout cookies. Why does life keep happening to you?

    Sound familiar? This is often our reality when we don’t actively practice mental mastery and learn to control our thoughts. How differently could your life look if you responded instead of reacted, gave others the most generous interpretation and radically accepted the present moment?

    In today’s episode, Dr. Lydia Spirawk, one of our Zivli health coaches, and I discuss the final three “Nons:” non-judgement, non-reaction, and non-resistance, and how to utilize this mindset to transform your life and achieve your goals. This is Part 2 of our mini series on the 4 “Nons” that you don’t want to miss!

  • 229. Hidden Attachments Keeping You Plateaued With Dr. Lydia Spirawk
    Apr 3 2024

    Do you struggle with a habit you can't seem to break? Like staying up too late, overeating in the evenings, that afternoon snack, or how about the frequent glass of wine after dinner? All of these habits that don't serve us stem from hidden attachments. And when you learn to see them, and release them, your habits will change with more ease.

    Part of sustainable weight loss is learning to choose your thoughts. Mental mastery will lead to emotional mastery, and ultimately mastery of your habits. Part of this mindset work is practicing non-attachment, non-resistance, non-reaction and non-judgment.

    When practiced, these states of mind can lead to inner freedom. This philosophical framework has the power to transform your thoughts surrounding yourself, your relationships, and your health journey.

    Tune in to our newest episode, where I talk with Dr. Lydia Spirawk, one of our Zivli health coaches, about how to navigate non-attachment, the first of the 4 “Nons.” This is Part 1 of our mini series on the 4 “Nons” that you don’t want to miss where we dive into non-attachment.
