Dirty Cheerios for Breakfast? Mar 14, 2019

Show notes

Would you serve your kids cereal covered with Roundup for breakfast? I want to put this in perspective: Last year the European journal of Environmental Sciences revealed that Americans have applied 1.8 million tons of glyphosate since 1974 to its food supply. Worldwide the total is 9.4 million tons that has been sprayed onto fields. If you need a strong visual that’s the water in 2,300 Olympic- swimming pools. Some of the strongest concentrations are in breakfast cereals served in the United States.

Go ahead and let your mind wander, and imagine where this chemical infiltrates. If you think you are immune to this problem, you have ignored science. It is time to step up to the plate and be an active participant in the massive course correct that needs to happen today!

Highlights:

0:40 - A major victory for our health and safety (plus a shocking discovery)
2:54 - Fun facts about your breakfast cereal
4:52 - Protect yourself from harm with these easy-to-implement action steps in kitchen

Jimmy T. Martin: Cold, Cryo, and Cancer Feb 21, 2019

Show notes

Today on the show is an incredible human. Jimmy T. Martin is helping to bring new modalities to make people feel better. He is also a survivor. He co-founded BRRRN Studios in New York City - the world’s first, cool temperature fitness studio. The studio has been featured on Good Morning America, Live with Ryan and Kelly, Men’s Health, GQ, Vogue and People Magazine.

On this episode we get into the science behind cold therapy, the brown fat you want more of on your body, how to turn an idea sitting on your laptop into one of Manhattan's hottest (but coolest) fitness studios, and how beta testing your program inside a 38°F beer fridge in Brooklyn made all the difference in the world.

I want to also prepare everyone for the candid and at-times difficult conversation we have about Jimmy’s role as a caregiver to his late wife and her battle with cancer. Their bravery, her beauty, her strength, and this very real story is something we have the honor to experience. This show really hits my heart and if you could make a special place for yourself to be able to hear everything that unfolds in the next 45 minutes, I think you will look at life a little differently after the experience.

Highlights of our conversation:

2:29 - About BRRRN Fitness Studio
4:02 - Self-care is never out of style
6:26 - How the cold brought fame to David Letterman
9:26 - What is brown fat?
11:38 - The inciting incident

38:06 - Would you trade your most painful day for easier times?
40:55 - What beautifully broken means to Jimmy

Recovery by way of Altruism Feb 07, 2019

Show notes

Altruism is the principle or moral practice of concern for happiness for others that results in a high quality of life both material and spiritual. It’s the core value that your attention in life is one of service to others, the community, the neighbor, anyone but yourself.

Altruism could be thought of as the opposite of selfishness and while it seems like the obvious choice or at least a good goal to shoot for…it can be the last thing that enters your mind when you feel like a walking zombie or chronically ill. This key concept turned out to be the shift I was needing in my healing journey and it has made all the difference going forward.

Enjoy,

Freddiesetgo
