The Wellness Gahm

Margaret Barry is an FNTP, Master T-Tapp Trainer, Postpartum Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Certified Personal Trainer. She's also a friend of mine and a wealth of knowledge in the world of minerals! In this episode, we chat all things minerals, lymph, and fascia.

Since the recording of this episode Margaret has also deep dived into the world of cranial sacral therapy. I love that she is a forever student (we homeschoolers tend to be this way), and picking her brain is such a privilege.

She also has an excellent You-Tube channel w/many of her T-Tapp exercises, which I frequently refer clients to for lymphatic support: https://www.youtube.com/@mb.fitness

I've gotten really into a morning routine this year. Turns out there's definitely magic to creating routines, time blocks, and time management strategies throughout the day. Raina O'dell is an expert at helping coach her clients through creating these by getting in touch with feelings and goals by visualizing. Listen to this motivating conversation.

You can find more about Raina, how to work with her, and her course offerings at RainaOdell.com. Check out her daily flow on IG @raina.odell.

What do you know about Thermography? In this episode w/Rebekah Stump, we chat all things women's health and how thermography is a great tool to be added to the toolbox. Rebekah is the owner of Thermography of Houston and a fellow FDN-P.

Ever heard of Mind Body Spirit Release? This is a fantastic modality for anyone on a healing journey that addresses trapped emotions in the body. I'm honored to have Amanda Mirabella, one of the MBSR Academy's training teachers, on the podcast!

In this episode she shares her own personal story with holistic healing as well as how she came to MBSR.  Amanda is a word-smith and gives such beautiful descriptions and explanations as to how muscle testing works, even over a distance, and how the MBSR clearing works. She also covers the topic of this type of energy work for Christians, which I think is hugely helpful.
I share a very personal experience with MBSR as well as how it can be used for children and for pets and for relationships.

If you'd like to find a practitioner for MBSR (besides Amanda or myself, as we are both practicing) you can go to www.mindbodyspiritrelease.com. You'll also find information there on how to take the training courses to become an MBSR Practitioner yourself, if you like.

You can find Amanda at www.mirabellaholistic.com and on IG @mirabellaholistic.

We've talked about sleep as a vital building block to health, but what if you can't get great sleep because you snore or have sleep apnea? Airway restriction could play a role in this. We've also gone over the importance of stress-reducing practices, getting the body into the calming rest-and-digest phase, but what if you can't because you're always breathing through your mouth (which triggers a fight or flight response)? So many connections with our tongue and breath to our greater big picture health. In this episode I get to talk with Orofacial MyoFunctional Therapist and Airway specialist Catherine Kangas. We discuss the importance of nasal breathing, tongue placement and posture, as well as tongue tie revision.

You can find out more about Catherine and her work at www.integrativemyohouston.com and on Instagram at @integrative_myo.
