Show notes

Episode 15: Sydney Singer isn’t afraid to challenge social norms for the sake of health and longevity. He and his wife are the directors of the Institute for the Study of Culturogenic Disease located in Hawaii. He is internationally recognized for his revolutionary research linking breast cancer with the wearing of tight bras, which he describes in his book, Dressed To Kill. Syd goes further beyond researching the correlation between bras and breast cancer and dives into other cultural causes of diseases, such as migraines, Alzheimer’s, stroke, glaucoma, sleep apnea, thyroid disease, obesity, diabetes, and much more. This was an extremely insightful episode so please soak up the knowledge we're fortunate enough to hear! Here's what we discuss: Syd's discovering on the correlation between lymphatic constriction and breast cysts 70% of breast cancer can be explained by the bra My own bra-free experience Your body is your hardware, and your instinct level is your operating system Why you don't need a bra, even if you're big breasted Why you actually get sore breasts before your period Choosing exercise that's right for your body The Susan G Komen boycott Why breast size and obesity is not an excuse for pre-menopausal women Dateline's financial interests and how it holds them back from exposing the truth about bras Thermograms Why Syd didn't complete his MD Sun screen and cancer The highest site on your body for skin cancer The correlation between dysplasia and tampons Menopause and sweating The danger of holding in urination and other forms of elimination Just how much gas is "normal" Genetically modified enzymes The way you're sleeping may be killing you Want to stay in touch with Sydney Ross Singer and the amazing research he's doing?

Giving Yourself Permission for Other Priorities Jun 25, 2014

Show notes

Episode 9: Do you ever look at a magazine or fitness competitor and think to yourself: "I wish I could look like that, but I don't have the willpower." "I could never compete, I love food too much." "I don't have nearly enough self-control to have that kind of body." If so- this podcast episode is for YOU. In this episode, I discuss with you why you should stop saying you don't have the "willpower" to do something, or you don't have enough "self-control" to look like a fitness model. It's not about self-control, will power, discipline, or any of that. It kills me when people look at models and put themselves down because they don't have the inner "drive" to look that way. It couldn't be any further from the truth. It's actually because you have priorities. And I admire that. Now, it's your turn to admire yourself for that.
