Unlocking Your Body's Wisdom with Chinese Medicine with Dr. Kevin Preston

Mon, 23 Sep 2024 05:00:00 -0600

Chinese medicine views the body as a garden, while Western medicine views it as a machine. Chinese medicine focuses on the health and wellness of the whole ecosystem, considering factors like soil, sunlight, and water. Kevin Preston, a practitioner of Chinese medicine, was drawn to this holistic approach after experiencing the effectiveness of acupuncture in treating his knee injury. He believes that Chinese medicine offers individualized treatments based on a person's unique history, genetics, and lifestyle.

However, Chinese medicine has faced resistance in Western cultures due to fear of the foreign and unfamiliar. Kevin sees common issues in his practice, such as fatigue, inflammation, autoimmune conditions, and toxicity. He uses a combination of deductive reasoning, intuition, and active listening to understand the root cause of a person's symptoms and develop a treatment plan.

In this conversation, Kevin Preston discusses the impact of medications on the body and the importance of addressing the root cause of health issues. He explains how anti-inflammatory medications can damage the gut flora and microbiome, leading to a decline in overall health. Kevin emphasizes the need to slow down, take inventory of one's life, and be open to change.

He also discusses his upcoming event, the New Human Regeneration, and the power of immersive healing experiences. The conversation highlights the importance of self-reflection, curiosity, and community in the healing journey.

Breathwork or Meditation: Which is Better for Personal Growth & Life?

Wed, 14 Aug 2024 02:00:00 -0600

Breathwork or Meditation: Which is Better for Personal Growth?"

The relationship between breathwork and meditation is a powerful synergy that can significantly enhance personal development and well-being. Lance underscores this connection by illustrating how meditation quiets the mind and connects it with the heart and body, while breathwork releases stuck energy and completes the stress response.

From Lance's perspective, incorporating both practices into a daily routine can amplify focus, calmness, and inner guidance, fostering deeper connections with one's intuition and promoting personal growth. Lance draws from his experience of practicing a daily 5-10 minute breathwork routine, a technique he learned from his mentors, to highlight the tangible benefits of these practices.

He believes that starting with deep, connected breaths can move stagnant energy and elevate the meditation experience. This can effectively help individuals release emotions, overcome challenges, and manifest their desires, ultimately leading to personal transformation and mental well-being.

Through this exploration, listeners will gain insights into leveraging the synergistic power of breathwork and meditation for their personal growth and development.

How to Create a New Identity and Why It's Important

Wed, 15 May 2024 09:00:00 -0600

Identity transformation, a fascinating concept that pertains to the process of consciously reshaping one's personal beliefs, habits, and environment for self-development, plays a pivotal role in personal growth. Lance Essihos, an advocate of this intriguing concept, suggests that our identity is sculpted by our everyday habits, actions, and past experiences. With an unwavering belief in the potential for personal metamorphosis, Essihos emphasizes the capacity to alter one's identity by cultivating new habits and taking distinct actions. He underlines the importance of crafting a lucid vision of the individual you aspire to be, aligning your actions with this vision to revolutionize your identity. According to Essihos, confronting discomfort and stretching beyond one's comfort zone are crucial steps in creating a fresh identity, as adherence to old habits can result in stagnation. Ultimately, he inspires individuals to observe and emulate those they admire as an effective strategy to evolve into the person they wish to be.

Wed, 27 Dec 2023 02:00:00 -0600

Conquering Health Battles: A Journey from Medication to Functional Medicine | Rachel Scheer

Mon, 24 Jul 2023 02:00:00 -0600

On this episode of University of Adversity, we have Rachel Scheer, an inspiring guest who shares her journey of overcoming medication withdrawal and advocating for a holistic approach to health. Rachel's personal experience with judgment and struggles with medication withdrawal gave her empathy for others facing similar challenges. While not against medication, Rachel strongly believes in addressing the root causes of issues rather than solely relying on it.

Rachel delves into the limitations of Western medicine, highlighting how it often diagnoses based on symptom clusters without considering other important factors such as diet, lifestyle, and relationships. She emphasizes that depression can stem from various root causes, including gut health, hormone imbalances, deficiencies in vitamins and fatty acids, and exposure to toxins.

Rachel shares her experience with functional medicine, a revolutionary approach that focuses on a person's lifestyle and conducts proper testing to identify underlying imbalances and stressors. She stresses the interconnectedness of body systems and the need for a holistic view of health rather than relying solely on medication.

Rachel candidly discusses her journey of trying to come off antidepressant medication and the challenges she faced, including panic attacks, anxiety, and difficulty functioning. She learned the importance of gradually decreasing the dosage and the effects of lowered serotonin levels during withdrawal.

The conversation takes a deep dive into the impact of mental health, gut health, and muscle mass on overall well-being. Rachel shares her personal struggles with anxiety, her discoveries about the connection between diet and anxiety levels, and the healing power of addressing gut health.

Furthermore, Rachel opens up about her changing definition of health and the negative consequences of focusing solely on physical appearance and bodybuilding. She highlights the importance of self-awareness, taking ownership of one's circumstances and relationships, and the role of emotional and mental well-being in overall health.

Rachel's journey also encompasses her frustrating experiences with Western medicine's limited approach to her gut issues, culminating in a suggestion for complete removal of her large intestine. This low point led her to seek alternative solutions and eventually find healing through functional medicine protocols and dietary changes.

Join us on this episode of University of Adversity as Rachel Sheer shares her powerful story of personal growth, resilience, and finding true healing by addressing the root causes of health issues. Her insights and experiences will inspire and educate listeners on the importance of a holistic approach to adversity and overcoming life's challenges.

Unveiling the Art of Masculinity: Exploring The Man Within | Johnny Elsasser Ep 420

Mon, 19 Jun 2023 07:00:00 -0600

In our modern world, the true meaning of masculinity and what it means to be a man has become lost. This has become a pressing issue in our society that needs to be addressed.

In today's episode, we have the privilege of having Johnny Elsasser, back on the podcast. He is a former Special Operations U.S. Army Ranger with extensive combat experience, who has delved into this subject in his new book, "Design the Man Within." Johnny's mission is to help men and women alike understand the essence of masculinity, how to become better men, and how to incorporate the true art of masculinity into their daily lives.

Johnny Elsasser's journey has given him unique insights into the field of masculinity from extreme alpha perspectives. Having served four combat tours in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as five years protecting the U.S. Ambassador to Iraq in Baghdad, he intimately understands the trials and tribulations faced by men, including the toughest among them, in today's society. Recognizing the importance of authenticity, Johnny aims to empower men in developing their true masculine identities rather than conforming to societal expectations. His advocacy centers on helping men discover their own masculine blueprint and purpose, enabling them to become positive contributors to the world.

Ryan Hickey will help you discover that today!

Hey there and welcome back to the University of Adversity podcast. Thank you so much for tuning in today.

During our conversation, we talked about misconceptions around weight gain, trauma, and metaphysical stuff. Ryan has a scientific, evidence-based approach to nutrition, which he shares with us, and we unpacked a lot in this conversation.

So, without further ado, let's get into today's conversation with Ryan Hickey.

Welcome back to University of Adversity. On today’s episode, Lance gets vulnerable and talks about his recent challenges around self-worth. Shifting your perspective about self-worth can be a challenging but transformative process. Here are some tips that may help:

Identify negative thought patterns: Start by paying attention to your negative self-talk. What kind of thoughts do you have about yourself? Are they kind and supportive or critical and judgmental? Once you are aware of your negative thought patterns, you can start to challenge them.
Challenge negative thoughts: When you notice negative thoughts, challenge them by asking yourself whether they are really true. For example, if you have a thought like, "I'm not good enough," ask yourself if that's really true. Are there things you're good at or that you're proud of? Practice reframing your thoughts in a more positive light.
Practice self-compassion: Treat yourself with the same kindness and understanding that you would offer to a good friend. Recognize that everyone makes mistakes and experiences setbacks, and that you are no exception.
Focus on your strengths: Make a list of your strengths and focus on them. It's easy to get caught up in our weaknesses and flaws, but shifting your focus to your strengths can help you feel more confident and capable.
Set realistic goals: Setting realistic goals and achieving them can help you feel more accomplished and increase your sense of self-worth. However, it's important to set goals that are achievable and realistic. Unrealistic goals can lead to disappointment and feelings of failure.
Practice gratitude: Take time each day to reflect on the things you're grateful for. Focusing on the good things in your life can help shift your perspective and increase feelings of self-worth.

Remember, shifting your perspective takes time and practice. Be patient and kind to yourself throughout the process. Enjoy the episode

Don’t Let Your Past Define Your Future w/Lance Essihos EP 371

Fri, 13 May 2022 02:00:00 -0600

In this episode, Lance talks about how it’s an exciting season for him as he is going through shifts in his personal life and in his business. He discusses what makes a past decision a good one versus a bad one. People tend to attach outcomes to the decisions that they make and therefore, qualify their decisions as good or bad based on the outcome. But Lance has a different take on this. He challenged this thought process and said what appears to be a failure might be good in the long term and what seems good now might not be the best in the long run.

If a decision you made didn’t work out, maybe it’s holding you back from potentially something even greater. Therefore, it’s important to have a bigger vision and expand our imagination. He then mentioned that he does not sit around regretting his decisions as he did what was best at that moment and learned from those experiences.

IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:

🔥 00:43 What I like about my new place in Miami

🔥 01:53 What I learned from the Gobundance Conference

🔥 03:24 What makes a decision we make good or bad

🔥 10:24 On what basis do we make our decisions

🔥 15:30 What Entrepreneurship has taught me

In this episode, she introduces the Heroine's Journey - a process of growth and independence that every woman alive goes through and how it is different from a Hero’s journey. She broke different terms that have influenced the way leadership works like Patriarchy and Matriarchy, feminine energy and Masculine energy, etc. She also explained the term Mature Feminine Leadership by giving several examples.

After saying no to living in the masculine any longer, Melanie is brought back into her Feminine power as she shares her vulnerable truth through various healing modalities such as somatic body experiences and transformational plant medicines.

🥇“WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR SOMEONE WHO IS STRUGGLING WITH ADVERSITY RIGHT NOW”🥇

Melanie says “We're never supposed to be forever young. And if we try to remain forever young, we are preventing the wisdom that comes through the aging process. And so, by welcoming aging, we're welcoming wisdom back into our bodies.”

Dealing With Harrassment And Heckling - A Perspective On Mike Tyson’s Incident w/Lance Essihos EP 367

Tue, 26 Apr 2022 02:00:00 -0600

In this episode, Lance talks about the recent incident that happened with Mike Tyson on an airplane where a young man sitting behind him heckled and bugged him by asking constant questions to which he turned and punched him several times and left him injured. While Lance does not condone acts of violence, he also expressed his concerns about the increasing lack of respect among young people and how there are no consequences to it.

While love is the answer, sometimes it takes a punch in the face with some people who simply cannot respect others. He stresses the importance of teaching the young generation and everybody in general on how to respect each other or face the consequences for the lack of it.

📚AVAILABLE NOW! Pre-sale for Lance’s new book Mastering Adversity: https://geni.us/MasteringAdversity

Sam Kabert played the game, mastered it, and cracked the code to what he was chasing: his dream life, filled with material successes and millions of dollars. He was named on Silicon Valley’s 40 Under 40 at just thirty-one years old.

In the middle of all that, Sam discovered the plant medicine ayahuasca, an experience that invigorated a new passion and kindled a new purpose in his life. His mission now is to fully embody the practice of SOUL/Life Balance.

In this episode, Lance and Sam talk about the journey to self-discovery, slowing down in this fast-paced world, looking inward, and discovering what it means to find balance in one’s life. Sam shares his experience of spiritual awakening and how that was a pivot point in his personal and professional life.

🥇“What advice do you have for someone who is struggling with adversity right now”🥇

Sam says, “We have been conditioned to seek to fix what isn’t “right” in addition to chasing something to accomplish and our gaze is outwardly focused. What we need instead is to look within, get our inner world in order, and practice self-love.”

The University of Adversity Summit was launched last year, featuring over 30 amazing speakers and in 2022, I launch my first book, Mastering Adversity. 3 years, 350 episodes later, all I can say is, we’re just getting started.

Much love,
