Today we talk with Justin Michael who's a Universal Yoga teacher, and a mushroom forger. He shares with us esoteric teachings he's learned from his teachers, how these teachings have traditionally been pasted down and why you want to eventually have your own experience of yoga.

We're distracting ourselves from the commercials of our past events and the advertisements of our past histories.

Today's a topic show where we talk about how your brain integration begins by connecting with your purpose neurologically. How this can be a crucial component to making a change or forming a new habit or belief. We also talked about how to look at your doctor as a consultant rather than an authority and how sugar can be a therapeutic source of fuel for the brain since your brain runs primarily on glucose. The bottom line is, if your body's not getting glucose from the diet it'll make and take glucose by breaking down the tissues in your body.Subscribe:https://www.youtube.com/user/PureEnergyWellnessAccess show notes, comment and share at:https://www.pureenergypdx.com/integrate-yourself-podcast/Thrive Market affiliate link:http://www.dpbolvw.net/click-8639977-130715754-Sigmatic affiliate link:http://www.us.foursigmatic.com/#_a_integrateyourselfEnter our code and get 10% off: integrateyourselfPatreon:http://www.patreon.com/integrateyourselfSupport the showFollow me on Instagram:@allisonpelot_

Kate Deering is back on our show for a second time. We're so honored to have her on to talk about how you can raise your metabolism by changing your beliefs and by focusing on what you really want. So many times we sabotage ourselves because of beliefs we picked up from diet dogmas, society and our parents. Since our brains are programed for weight loss, we can forget about what really matters most when it comes to our quality of life and overall health. It can be scary for most people to completely change the way they eat so that's why it's crucial to connect with your purpose behind the change and habit so that you're better able to make a longer lasting more sustainable change. Kate explains how this all leads back to raising your metabolism ultimately because you're lowering your stress and supporting your body's recovery system. Kate shares with us the best way to get your mind on track with your body for metabolic success.Kate Deering is author of "How To Heal You
