In this school, we will be focusing on a variety of topics related to health and wellness, like nutrition, stress-reduction, happiness, meaning in our life, our passions, our hobbies, our favorite places and methods to relax and just Be (calm), our immune system (how to strengthen it), terrain theory, self-love, forgiveness, kindness, self esteem, general wellness practices, our daily routine, our life choices, exercise, and self-healing, just to name a few ;-) ... including my specialties psychoneuroimmunology, change (habit) hacks, as well as my own field I've coined, called relaxation immunology.
In other words, it's listening to this podcast (and others like it) and doing the mind, body, and soul nourishing "work", over time, to "unplug" from our dependence on medicine and have the health and vitality to do and Be more of what makes us Happy!

My response to @kellyfogg7398's reply to Dr. Berg's exceptionally insightful video "The Sodium-Potassium Ratio is More
Important Than a Low Sodium Diet" https://youtu.be/z4MFnrMpzBA?si=YE80RACfHDghZ9_k
This walk and talk is about why we need to STOP and make time in our lives to educate ourselves enough about the decades old truly HARMFUL advice to restrict salt to lower blood pressure. Why we need to get over our fear of salt to save our health and the health of our loved ones.
This will be an eye opener to how one diagnosis is simply a symptom of multiple underlying issues. When we treat the symptom, only, not only do we never get to the underlying cause, but the treatment for the illness is usually a pill that can have adverse unknown effects on the body, mostly due to the practitioners lack of knowledge of the cause(s) of the illness.
The term I was looking for is gluconeogenesis where our intake of carbohydrates is low enough (usually lower than 50g) and our body starts to convert the fat we eat into glucose (not carbohydrates as I said in the video). Generally the more fat adapted we are (where our body gets more of its energy from fat vs carbs), the quicker this fat to glucose process happens (to ensure our body, esp. brain gets a sufficient amount of glucose, since it is a hog in that regard), which is why, in the transition phase of going low carb, keto, or even vegetarian, we'd want to generally taper off carbs slowly to make sure we have sufficient energy and brain function ... especially if we're still generally restricting fat in our diet.
The other major symptom of hyponatremia that I missed is headaches, in case you know people that are regularly getting headaches and don't know why (it's mostly from the combination of sodium restriction and drinking too much water ... both acting to dilute sodium to dangerously low levels in the blood).
Some of the main symptoms of hyponatremia again being ...
1) Brain fog
2) Headache
3) It has us generally unquenchably thirsty and peeing all the time (not retaining water well), even through the night, preventing restful sleep.
4) Raises heart rate at rest (sitting), which can be sustained (tachycardia), oftentimes right after we wake up in the morning.
Here's the name of that salt I mentioned that is higher in magnesium and natural iodine (most sea salt has little, if any iodine).

In regards to protein, at least for a man, it's advised to get around half your weight in grams of protein (at the very minimum 0.35g/lb body weight, or around 50g), per day. More of course, the more physically active you are. So divide that result by 3 to get how much protein you should generally be aiming to eat, each meal 🙂👍!
Trusting that even the "burden" of our own health will get easier, over time, to the point where it gets as effortless as riding a bicycle or performing any skill we have learned to do very well.
Just a walk-n-talk about the recent CDC mask guideline change, that allows people who are vaccinated to not wear a mask in public places, medical discrimination, and of course, health.
This is a long awaited NOURISHING "walk and talk" of me going over my 8 Simple Steps handout on things we can all do to improve our overall health and strengthen our immune system ... along with instructions for the accompanying Pre-Symptomatic Health Score form, for tracking improvements in our health =)!
I'm leaving the links to both printable documents below so you have something to go along with the audio from my talk.
I apologize in advance for the "noise" (mostly the handout I was holding in my hand). I was recording video for the first time, looking at the rear camera of my phone (not able to see myself) and unfortunately most of the video was of my mouth and chest lol (rookie vloger fail lol).
Enjoy!

Top 6 things we can all do to improve our health and immune function ...
1. Vitamin D from the sun (in short 5-10min bursts)
2. 7-8 hours of sleep
3. Hydration (pale yellow to clear urine)
4. Nutrition (more fruits and vegetables)
5. Exercise 30min/day (among other things to retain full lung function and activate the lymphatic system to get the toxins out)
6. Breathwork (to keep every cell, tissue and organ in the body sufficiently oxygenated to operate properly) *** This includes relaxation and all things a person can do to reduce stress in their lives ... including forgiveness, lifestyle change, moving to a new city, "divorcing" people that create the opposite of calm in your life, etc.
