The Science Behind "Woo" with Dr. Barrie Sands
ER-vet-turned-integrative healer Dr. Barrie Sands bridges science and spirituality—showing how HRV, HeartMath coherence, and outcome tracking make “woo” measurable in real pets. We dig into energy medicine, homeopathy, and practical protocols that calm the nervous system, reduce pain/anxiety, and support recovery—without bypassing good veterinary care. Actionable, grounded, and data-aware.

00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,160
Welcome back, pet parent.
I have one of, I think, the most
2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:08,600
interesting guests I've ever had
on this show because of what she
3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,320
does.
I have an integrative holistic
4
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,960
of veterinarian.
Her name is Doctor Barry Sands,
5
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,200
who also does emergency critical
care medicine.
6
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,280
And I'm just so fascinated by
her.
7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,480
I, I listened to her talk a
couple of years ago at HBMA and
8
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,960
I was like, I need to know this
woman.
9
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:31,280
And so I have tried very hard to
weasel my way into her circle.
10
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,240
And she's here with us today and
I'm just so excited for to have
11
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:39,280
her on and have her talk to you
because not only does she do
12
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:44,600
emergency medicine, she does
holistic healthcare and she we
13
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:49,760
use in esoteric topics of energy
medicine and quantum biology.
14
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,840
And Oh my goodness, we're just,
we're going to get into all of
15
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,960
it.
So First off, welcome Doctor
16
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:56,960
Barry Sands to the pet parenting
Reset.
17
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,640
How are you doing today?
Jessica, thank you so much for
18
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,319
inviting me to speak to your
community of like fabulous
19
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:06,240
people out there.
And I'm doing great.
20
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,680
I'm doing great today.
You know I'm feeling pretty
21
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:10,960
good.
So today, today's a good day.
22
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:13,520
I've been a little under the
weather for the last week and
23
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,160
now I'm not.
That's amazing.
24
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,960
Like when you just wake up one
day and you're like, Oh yeah, I
25
00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:22,400
was sick and now I feel amazing.
And you just like, really
26
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,440
appreciate that feeling for a
minute.
27
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,200
Like I know.
Yeah.
28
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:29,640
Take it for granted so often.
That's kind of amazing.
29
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,520
Absolutely.
And, you know, I've been, you
30
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:36,880
know, it was a actually a really
good reminder for me about
31
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:41,600
really appreciating all the
beautiful biologic magic that's
32
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,200
always happening inside of us
because I have been healthy for
33
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:49,600
so long that I forgot what it
was like not to be healthy.
34
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,480
And, and I realized that I was
definitely taking a little bit
35
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,760
of that for granted.
And so now I'm sort of
36
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:02,280
recalibrated to be more mindful
about just the things that I'm
37
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,720
doing with my body and my health
and my supplements and just more
38
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,840
routine and, you know, just kind
of getting back into a different
39
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,840
level of groove, you know, So
that was really, it was good.
40
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,320
It was a good experience.
Yeah, well, I mean, that's so
41
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,400
interesting.
And and I'm, I'm curious
42
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,920
actually, I, I want to maybe
circle back around to that.
43
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:26,240
But before we do, I would just
love, I always like to ask
44
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:30,480
veterinarians that come on the
show, like what got you into
45
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,680
veterinary medicine?
And then what got you down the
46
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,600
path of holistic veterinary
medicine?
47
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,040
All right, let's talk straight.
What's going on with your dog?
48
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,520
What's going on with your cat?
Do they have chronic GI issues,
49
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:47,160
bad breath, bad behavior,
constant upset stomachs,
50
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,400
diarrhea?
Do they have indigestion
51
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,840
symptoms?
Do they have allergies?
52
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,800
Are they itching all the time?
Do they have skin issues?
53
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,640
What is going on with your dog?
Because chances are based on the
54
00:02:59,640 --> 00:03:02,560
data, based on what we know,
there is something going on with
55
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,320
your dog or cat because most
dogs and cats in the US are not
56
00:03:07,440 --> 00:05:35,840
super healthy.
But before we do, I would just
57
00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:40,120
love, I always like to ask
veterinarians that come on the
58
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,080
show, like what got you into
veterinary medicine?
59
00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,760
And then what got you down the
path of holistic veterinary
60
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,080
medicine?
Yeah.
61
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,880
Well, you know, that's a really,
it's a, it's an interesting
62
00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,880
question.
It's a little bit of a of a
63
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,880
story.
You know, I think everyone has
64
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:01,000
their story.
But for me, it started when I
65
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,520
was really young and I didn't
always want to be a
66
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,680
veterinarian.
That was not in my in my
67
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:10,080
consciousness.
But what was in my consciousness
68
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:14,000
was I wanted to work with
dolphins.
69
00:06:14,840 --> 00:06:21,800
That was my, my driving force.
And I had this idea since I was,
70
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,480
you know, five years old at
least, you know, and I just,
71
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,960
they were, they fascinated me on
so many levels.
72
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:32,000
And as I got older, I started
reading about the, all the
73
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,280
studies and the research that
has been done with dolphins in
74
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:37,360
the world of consciousness and
energy.
75
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,760
And so it was very esoteric to
start with.
76
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,160
And then as I got older, I was
like, OK, well, I need to work
77
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,040
with these animals on some
level.
78
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,640
I was also very much of A lucid
dreamer.
79
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,480
Oh, wow.
And still AM.
80
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:57,840
And so the whole aspect of the
dream realm was what I call
81
00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:01,880
dreamtime was a very significant
part of my life.
82
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,360
It was like my alternate reality
and constantly.
83
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,640
And then I found out that
dolphins had a sort of a similar
84
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,400
esoteric sort of sharing of
dreamtime.
85
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,960
And so that led me into
researching people like John
86
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,320
Lilly, who was a dolphin
conscious researcher back in the
87
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:24,480
70s, and Timothy Leary and Edgar
Cayce and just names of people
88
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,600
that were really much into the
alternative consciousness
89
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,400
esoteric types of healing.
So they were very fascinating
90
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:38,120
for me and I still led me back
to the sort of logistics about
91
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:41,720
how do I work with dolphins.
I just wanted to be next to
92
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,360
them.
And I grew up in, in New York.
93
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,360
I grew up in Brooklyn, NY.
And so there weren't any
94
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,520
dolphins in Brooklyn, you know,
And I mean, I, it was a
95
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:54,000
concrete, concrete jungle.
And so nature, it was limited
96
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,440
nature that I was exposed to as
a, as a young child.
97
00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,600
That being said, as I went
through college getting a degree
98
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,680
in biochemistry because I just
love sciences, I was also very
99
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,920
much involved in neurology
because I wanted to do dream
100
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,280
research and I wanted to do
dream research in dolphins.
101
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,680
And so that led me down the path
of wanting to get a PhD in
102
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:24,200
neurology and dream research.
So as I applied to all these
103
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,360
programs when I was in college,
so after my BS degree in
104
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,160
science, I was going to get a
PhD in neurology, but that
105
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,880
didn't pan out because I didn't
get accepted into any of the
106
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,559
programs that I wanted.
And so there was only three
107
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:39,880
programs, and they were very
selective.
108
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:41,200
And, you know, hundreds of
people.
109
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:45,720
And I just wasn't one of them.
So lots of, you know, letters.
110
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:49,520
We regret to inform you that you
didn't make it.
111
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,760
And so I'm like, OK, well, OK,
Different paths change, change
112
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:57,120
paths.
So on my graduation day, my
113
00:08:57,680 --> 00:09:01,080
genetic professor came up to me.
And he says, so Barry, what are
114
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:05,120
you going to do now?
And I was like, I'm going to be
115
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:08,480
a veterinarian.
Just out of nowhere, I.
116
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:11,040
Was like, that's what I'm going
to do.
117
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,760
And so because I was like, well,
if I'm a veterinarian, I could
118
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,520
work with dolphins and then I
could, you know, go back to
119
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:20,600
that.
So then that led me down that
120
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:26,640
path and I ended up going to vet
school and loving, loving
121
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:28,520
medicine.
You know, it's just medicine,
122
00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:30,720
loving learning about all of
that.
123
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:39,240
And then that led me into a
decision to specialize in either
124
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,280
medicine or surgery because
after college I did an
125
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,320
internship.
I mean, after vet school I did
126
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,400
an internship and now I wanted
to specialize because I just, I
127
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:52,560
don't know, I have this, I'm a
constant learner and I'm always
128
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:54,720
learning and I love learning.
You never stop learning.
129
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,240
And so that's probably why I do
all these things because it kind
130
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,120
of keeps me just very engaged in
life.
131
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,000
There's never an endless isn't
never an endless supply of
132
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,880
knowledge.
And knowledge is wisdom and
133
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,200
wisdom is healing.
And so after I couldn't decide
134
00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:14,080
on whether or not I did
emergency surgery or medicine, I
135
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:18,040
decided to do emergency medicine
because that was the best of
136
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:22,240
both worlds.
And so that's how I ended up in
137
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:28,040
the ER and I've been doing
emergency medicine for about 30
138
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:34,520
years now.
And yeah, and it's is the the
139
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:40,520
epitome of conventional medicine
training that you get is what
140
00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:45,320
you do in the ER, right?
So now, how did my holistic
141
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,360
practice come into play?
Right.
142
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:51,840
And I mean, I always, I still
had this yearning for more, you
143
00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:55,160
know, healing and wholeness and
all of that.
144
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,960
And so then I was like, OK,
well, I need to start diving
145
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:02,080
into that.
And so about 20 some odd years
146
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,040
ago, I started becoming
certified in acupuncture and
147
00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:09,560
learning Chinese medicine, you
know, and that led me learning
148
00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:13,960
to inter learning about herbs
and plant medicine, right?
149
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,000
And then that led me into
homeopathy.
150
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:21,000
And then homeopathy led me into
energetics, you know, and then
151
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:25,640
all of this sort of circled back
to this dolphin thing, which I
152
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,720
never quite worked on dolphins,
but I've swam with them in the
153
00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,280
in nature.
So I've been with them and I
154
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:35,400
feel pretty complete with my
dolphin experiences.
155
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:41,680
But that's how I got into
holistic medicine through my
156
00:11:41,680 --> 00:11:46,280
emergency medicine.
And then the aspect of heart
157
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,720
math and learning heart
coherence and getting trained in
158
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:54,720
that, teaching stress management
and resilience building and
159
00:11:54,720 --> 00:12:00,000
coherence training was really
introduced to me as an idea when
160
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,480
I was on the emergency service,
when I was doing emergency
161
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,280
medicine.
Really.
162
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,720
So, OK, I do want to get into
all of that, but I want to take
163
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:14,360
a really quick tangent because
I'm just so curious what your
164
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:18,800
thoughts are because you have
spent your whole life being so
165
00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,280
interested in dolphins.
What do you think the reason is
166
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:27,040
that there are laws against us
interacting with dolphins?
167
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,040
You mean in the wild?
Yeah, yeah.
168
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,040
You know, I think it's, I don't
know, I don't know the exact
169
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:37,320
reasons, but I, I think it's
because people mess things up.
170
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,320
You know, people, they create
problems and they're not
171
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,920
respectful of nature.
And so they, they want to, they
172
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,120
want to put their own spin on
things and their own egotistic
173
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:50,360
experiences.
And, you know, they're not in
174
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,480
harmony with nature.
And so I think that's one of the
175
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,440
reasons why it's like just
nobody touches anybody.
176
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:00,720
Yeah.
Because when I was in, when I
177
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,720
went swimming with the dolphins
in the Bahamas, it was very
178
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,000
organic.
I was with a group of people who
179
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,680
were very consciously aware and
ambassadors for the cetacean
180
00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:12,720
community.
And we were on a boat.
181
00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,200
There was like 12 of us and we
would just drive around and, and
182
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:20,040
call in pods and then when the
pods showed up, we would jump in
183
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:24,000
and we would just be with them
until they got tired and left.
184
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:25,960
And then we'd go finding another
pod.
185
00:13:26,680 --> 00:13:30,120
And they all, they told us, you
know, don't touch the dolphins,
186
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:34,680
don't touch them.
And I'm like, OK, you know, and
187
00:13:34,680 --> 00:13:39,240
but they wanted to touch us.
They wanted at least me.
188
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:42,120
I don't know about everybody.
I just know my experience, you
189
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,560
know, they wanted to like rub
against you and they wanted to
190
00:13:45,560 --> 00:13:49,560
play with you and bring you toys
and play fetch with little sea
191
00:13:49,560 --> 00:13:52,600
reefs and, and things.
And there was a moment in time
192
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:57,680
where I had a dolphin just stop
in front of my nose and we were
193
00:13:57,680 --> 00:14:03,680
nose to nose touching and time
just stood still and it was a
194
00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,320
beautiful experience.
I was laughing because I'm like,
195
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,440
like, what are we doing here?
Are we going to kiss?
196
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,080
I don't understand.
It's so amazing.
197
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,400
Like they're so smart and
they're so I don't like, I find
198
00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:26,120
it very interesting how
conscious you are and how how
199
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,120
how much you are just kind of
like drawn to dolphins.
200
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:31,400
That's just so interesting to
me.
201
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:39,600
But OK, so tell me a little bit
more about how you blend
202
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:45,480
holistic modalities into
emergency medicine because as
203
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:49,480
you said, like that is the
epitome of like allopathic care
204
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:54,040
is in an emergency setting where
it's just like you are reacting
205
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:58,800
and you are having to use
pharmaceuticals and use surgical
206
00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,760
intervention.
And like this is like the
207
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:05,680
epitome of allopathic medicines.
I'm really curious how you blend
208
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:10,200
holistic modalities into that.
Well, you know, the beauty about
209
00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,080
emergency medicine and, and
allopathic medicine is that it's
210
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,800
designed to work fast and hard,
right?
211
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:23,240
And so if I have an animal that
comes in that has a severe
212
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:27,360
trauma, whether it's an animal
attack like attacked by a coyote
213
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:33,480
or they got hit by a car or in
some fight situation or a police
214
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,880
dog that was in gunshot, like
whatever it is that comes in,
215
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,480
your medicine is is absolutely
your friend.
216
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,600
That's what you want.
Then you know, you want your IV
217
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:48,640
catheters, your IV fluids, your
pain meds, your antibiotics,
218
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:52,000
your blood products, you know
the surgical, but you want all
219
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,240
of that.
It is in the sort of afterwards
220
00:15:56,280 --> 00:16:00,200
where you would implement more
of the holistic things, you
221
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:04,080
know, as the body is going into
its healing phase, you know, to
222
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,280
help with that more natural
means of pain control.
223
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:11,360
Acupuncture, you know, I like to
use sound therapy is something
224
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,320
that I've been wanting to
implement in, in healing.
225
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,000
So all of those other things,
you know, the herbs and the
226
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:22,160
homeopathic and the acupuncture,
the massage, the the PT, the
227
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:26,480
body work, the laser, the cold
laser, all of that is going to
228
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,600
be implemented afterwards in a
perfect world, you know, and,
229
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:34,440
and it's not always like that,
you know, people, you know,
230
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,360
there's the human element that's
involved and then there's the,
231
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,920
you know, the mindset of what
health and Wellness really is,
232
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,040
you know, so I meet people where
they're at and ioffer what I
233
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,840
can.
And if they want that, they get
234
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,800
that, you know, but not
everybody wants that.
235
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,480
Not everybody wants acupuncture
or good nutrition.
236
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,760
They just want you to, you know,
fix them up and fix the fracture
237
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,640
and then send them home with
some, you know, codeine and
238
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,319
gabapentin and they call it a
day.
239
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:11,400
So do you have like a practice
outside of the emergency room
240
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:15,319
where people who you may have
met in an emergency situation
241
00:17:15,319 --> 00:17:16,720
can follow up with you
afterwards?
242
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,599
Is that how you're handling?
That, yeah, OK.
243
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:24,640
So the hospital that I work in
is a specialty hospital so we
244
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:28,119
have all the modalities there.
We have the emergency critical
245
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:31,760
care, we have internists and
cardiologists and surgeons and,
246
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,120
and I, I'm on the ER team,
obviously, and I also have my
247
00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:37,560
holistic practice.
So a lot of the times I meet a
248
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,480
lot of my holistic clients in
the ER, you know, that are just
249
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,400
coming back.
They keep coming back for all
250
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,800
these issues.
And I'm like, OK, well, if we
251
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:49,440
want to have you not keep coming
in for vomiting and diarrhea,
252
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:53,640
then let's, let's you know,
let's help heal the system, you
253
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,760
know, And so then they make an
appointment for a consult, for a
254
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,320
holistic consult, and then we'd
go down that route.
255
00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:03,600
Nice.
That's so rewarding because
256
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,080
that's where the healing
happens.
257
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:09,160
And then I don't see them, you
know, on the ER anymore, which
258
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,640
is really nice.
You know, I mean, I, I tell
259
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,280
people that my goal is for you
not to need me, you know, on any
260
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,320
level.
So it is really nice actually,
261
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,640
because you know, the other, the
other veterinarian that I I've
262
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:24,680
spoken with didn't have that
piece.
263
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:29,440
And so I feel like in in his
particular instance, I feel like
264
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,520
that burnout is going to happen
with him so much quicker, which
265
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,000
is interesting.
And I don't know, it certainly
266
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,880
wasn't something I had planned
on talking to you about.
267
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:43,880
But burnout in veterinary
medicine is, is rough and real.
268
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,640
And is that the fact that you
get to potentially follow up
269
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:51,080
with these people holistically,
these pets holistically after
270
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:55,720
emergency care is do you feel
like that has helped you from
271
00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:00,600
preventing some of this burnout?
I for me, I think the most
272
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:06,080
important thing to prevent
burnout is self-care and self
273
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:10,520
compassion.
And you know, being becoming a
274
00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:15,120
certified trainer working with
the Heart Math Institute has
275
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:18,880
definitely helped with that.
And, you know, one of the
276
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:24,440
reasons why I became a part of
that community was because one
277
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,720
of the things that drove me
there was I in my emergency
278
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,160
practice and also as a
veterinarian, I kept seeing
279
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:37,480
this, this really weird
phenomenon of animals and humans
280
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:41,920
sharing a disease process.
I say, oh, yeah, you know, I
281
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:43,720
have this.
My animal has that, right.
282
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:48,120
It was so prevalent and amongst
everybody, all veterinarians,
283
00:19:48,120 --> 00:19:50,480
you ask them, everyone says,
yeah, you know, have you ever
284
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,240
met a client who has the same
disease as their animal?
285
00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:56,440
And the answer was always yes,
you know, And then so I said,
286
00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,480
well, OK, well, why what?
That's weird, right?
287
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,160
Like what's happening?
What's happening there?
288
00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:06,440
Like, where is that coming from?
And so then that led me into the
289
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:11,640
world of, of energy and quantum
biology and quantum entanglement
290
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,160
and biofield Physiology and
learning about the energetics of
291
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,440
things in a more deeper level.
And so I went when I went up and
292
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,360
met with the researcher and the
head CEO of of Heart Math
293
00:20:21,360 --> 00:20:23,600
Institute.
I told him about this.
294
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,320
I said there's this phenomenon
and I want to understand how
295
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,720
it's happening and why it's
happening and if there's
296
00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:30,800
anything I could do about it,
you know?
297
00:20:31,360 --> 00:20:36,160
And so I learned about the
aspects of going into coherence
298
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,440
and what that meant, you know,
in your own Physiology and how
299
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,360
that helps heal your body and
then how you can use that to
300
00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:48,160
heal the animals or even the
people that you're interfacing
301
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,280
with.
And then that understanding led
302
00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:57,760
me to really circle back to how
these modalities such as
303
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:02,320
homeopathy and energy works,
such as Reiki and T touch and
304
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:06,600
quantum touch and cranial sacral
therapy, how all of that really
305
00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:11,520
works in the system.
You know, it's because of this
306
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:15,440
mechanisms and the pathways that
we learn about in quantum, in
307
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,360
quantum worlds and quantum and
energy medicine.
308
00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:20,840
So it all circled back to energy
medicine.
309
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:25,600
Yeah.
So sorry, Go ahead, go ahead.
310
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,720
Well, I just, this is a lot that
we're talking about, but you
311
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:35,600
know, it made me, it made me
realize that this energy work is
312
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,600
really the icing on the cake of
everything that we are
313
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,880
experiencing.
You know, we're taught in school
314
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,720
about biology and we're taught
about chemistry and how
315
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,720
chemistry drives biology, right?
You take a pill, you get better.
316
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:55,760
It's, it's that kind of thing.
But what we're not taught is the
317
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,840
physics that drives the
chemistry that drives the
318
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:04,600
biology, and then the energy
that drives the physics that
319
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:06,800
drives the chemistry that drives
the biology.
320
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,000
So then you just bypass the
middle and say energy drives
321
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:14,840
biology and then you just start
working with energy.
322
00:22:14,840 --> 00:22:17,600
And what I found is that it's
simple.
323
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:23,040
It's so simple to when you start
from that level, you know, to go
324
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:26,560
down and you don't need a lot
of, you don't need any tools or
325
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,440
medicine.
You know, the energy is the
326
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,520
medicine, the thoughts are the
medicine, the emotions are the
327
00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,800
medicine.
You know, there's a lot to tap
328
00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,400
into in that, that way.
The sound is the medicine.
329
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,960
You know, the light is the
medicine.
330
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,720
And so I mean, I love that.
I think it's a it's, it's
331
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:45,640
fascinating and exciting for me.
And, you know, so I like to kind
332
00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,520
of try to blend all of that into
place because, you know, I still
333
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,320
say if you cut me out, I will
bleed.
334
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,400
You know, I mean, we're still
flesh and blood.
335
00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:59,280
And so, you know, I, if I, if I
take a knife to my hand, it's
336
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,960
going to bleed and I have to do
something to make it stop,
337
00:23:03,120 --> 00:23:05,120
right?
By opposing the tissue and then
338
00:23:05,120 --> 00:23:09,720
putting over a Band-Aid, right?
But after that, everything
339
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,800
underneath that is the
energetics of the body that's
340
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,240
healing that you know.
Yeah.
341
00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:20,120
So what what are some of the
some of the things because I'm
342
00:23:20,120 --> 00:23:25,920
thinking of, of things that, you
know, are not actually that easy
343
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:31,960
to do in today's world, but that
we need to be doing so badly to
344
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:36,240
reconnect and to kind of get
that our energy, pull our energy
345
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:41,520
back for one, like I'm thinking
of like how scattered our energy
346
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,720
is in today's world.
What are some of the things that
347
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:49,160
you might send pet parents home
to do on their own without
348
00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,960
tapping into the things that
they might need to come in for,
349
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:57,240
whether that's acupuncture or
laser or because I mean,
350
00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,120
obviously there are pimp devices
there, there's red light there,
351
00:24:00,120 --> 00:24:01,600
there are devices that we can
use.
352
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,560
But things that pet parents, you
said it can be free.
353
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:07,600
What are some of these things
that you might send pet parents
354
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,080
home with to do to kind of work
on that energy?
355
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,240
Yeah.
Well, you know, the first and
356
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:18,160
foremost I feel people need to
learn how to reconnect with
357
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,480
their hearts.
And then when you reconnect with
358
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,960
your heart, you reconnect with
with the source of the energy
359
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:29,080
that that's infusing that and
you also gives you an
360
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,840
opportunity to connect with the
ground and the earth.
361
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:36,440
So simple things like, I mean,
there's breathing techniques,
362
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,200
there's heart brain harmony,
coherence techniques.
363
00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:46,280
Then there's just super simple
things like grounding, you know,
364
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:50,080
going out in nature with your
animal, you know, barefoot in
365
00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:55,560
the grass, laying down, you
know, letting the earth kind of
366
00:24:55,600 --> 00:25:01,360
rebalance the Physiology and
hydration, Hydration is such a
367
00:25:01,360 --> 00:25:05,880
key factor in so many things.
And, and you know, like I say,
368
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,240
the solutions are pretty simple,
but they're not easy because a
369
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,720
lot of people are just, you
know, they're, they're wrapped
370
00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:16,920
up in their story, in their
days, in their to do lists.
371
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:22,760
And they just, and their fears,
you know, their fears of, you
372
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,840
know, their animal being sick.
Because I mean, really, we're
373
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,600
all talking about illness,
right?
374
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,320
Because if everybody's well,
then everybody's well and
375
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:33,000
there's nothing, then we're not,
we have nothing to talk about
376
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,560
really, right.
And so we're constantly talking
377
00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,560
about like, how can I heal?
How can I help my, my pet has
378
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,320
this condition.
What do I do?
379
00:25:40,720 --> 00:25:43,080
You know, I have this condition,
what do I do?
380
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:48,800
And starting from the simplicity
of taking a breath, you know,
381
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:53,000
using, you know, ox, the your
body at first and foremost needs
382
00:25:53,000 --> 00:26:04,200
oxygen and sunlight and water
and, and, and, and a higher
383
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:09,120
frequency of energy in fusing
into it through your thoughts
384
00:26:09,120 --> 00:26:11,120
and your emotions.
And so just that little
385
00:26:11,120 --> 00:26:13,960
checklist is, you know, where
you start.
386
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,920
And then there are techniques
for that.
387
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,440
I mean, there's so many
different techniques for
388
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:19,200
breathing.
Yeah, yeah.
389
00:26:19,360 --> 00:26:22,200
Rhetoric alone.
And I think the whole idea is to
390
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:27,720
not get caught up into one
particular way or a dogma about
391
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:31,200
it because I find that everybody
seems to have the solution even
392
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,440
in that realm, you know, like
quantum breathing.
393
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,440
And this is how you do it.
You know, it doesn't have to be
394
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,840
that stringent.
You know, you could just pick
395
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,040
one that resonates with you and
then just start doing it.
396
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,760
I mean, I think in, at the end
of the day, it's the practice
397
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,680
that makes the most difference,
you know, is to just do it.
398
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,520
I was going to go to a
meditation class tonight and I
399
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,280
talked myself out of it because
I have so much work to do.
400
00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,920
And I feel like talking to you
right now is like the universe
401
00:26:59,920 --> 00:27:02,320
saying, you know what, you need
to go, you need to go.
402
00:27:02,360 --> 00:27:04,840
So I think when we get off of
this call, I'm going to go ahead
403
00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:11,400
and book that because we are so
disconnected.
404
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:16,200
And I feel it like I literally,
I'm not going to sugarcoat it.
405
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,680
I'm addicted to my AI.
I'm addicted to chat GPTI use it
406
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,360
for everything.
And when I mean everything, I
407
00:27:23,360 --> 00:27:27,040
mean like therapy helping me
when I'm staring at a blank
408
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:31,800
page, like all of it, it's been
it, it's interesting.
409
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:37,600
But like, I literally was like,
I need, I need to get off of my
410
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:40,280
phone.
And it's funny to me that I went
411
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:43,360
to my GPT this morning and I was
like, I need to get off of my
412
00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:44,240
phone.
What can I do?
413
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:47,480
And I'm like on my phone asking
my GPT how to get off of my
414
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,880
phone.
So yes, I think I'm going to,
415
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,680
I'm going to book that
meditation class tonight.
416
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,440
But yeah, it is, it is kind of
interesting.
417
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,000
And what I'm kind of going to
circle back a little bit because
418
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:04,320
you, you know, growing up in
Brooklyn can really identify
419
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,800
with people and pets who are
living in those types of
420
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:11,240
environments where they're not
touching the grass.
421
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:17,240
A dog may I like living in a
high rise, Like when are they
422
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,200
going to unless their pet parent
is very intentional about
423
00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,400
getting them into a park
somewhere or like when are they
424
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:27,480
even going to touch grass?
And one of the things is that a
425
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,360
company that I think we both
know and love is really
426
00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:34,400
passionate about doing is
bringing that outside into the
427
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,240
food bowl.
And I'm curious like if that's
428
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,840
also something that you talk to
pet parents about because, you
429
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,720
know, like you said, life is
busy.
430
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,840
We have to do lists, we have
things to do.
431
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,880
Like are there other ways in
which you might coach people
432
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:54,600
into into bringing like a more
natural rhythm back into their
433
00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:58,120
pet pets lives?
I mean, depending on your
434
00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,360
environment, there's so many
things now that you can bring
435
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,880
like indoors, right?
They have these gardens, these
436
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:08,520
small little gardens, these
tower gardens that you can, that
437
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:13,360
you can buy that have that grow
lettuces and herbs and all sorts
438
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:15,680
of things.
Like you could put that on a
439
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,360
patio, you could put it in your
house by a window.
440
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:23,520
And they have these mats, these
grounding mats now, like little
441
00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:27,400
sheets that just give off this
electromagnetic, you know,
442
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,080
pulses of, you know, to balance
out the energies.
443
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,600
I mean, animals love to sit on
that stuff.
444
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:37,040
You know, it brings the IT
brings the outside to the
445
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:41,320
inside.
You know, I think that any way
446
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:43,760
that you could do it, you know,
you want to get some dirt from
447
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,960
outside, bring it in.
Have I mean, dogs need to smell
448
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:47,880
things.
Yeah.
449
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,280
And so there's there's nature
everywhere, like even in even in
450
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:56,640
New York City and and, you know,
Brooklyn, they have, they do
451
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:58,440
have parks.
They have, I mean, we had this
452
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:02,960
one tree in our, on our street
and it, you know, there's
453
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,880
concrete and then there's a tree
and then there's like a block of
454
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,520
concrete around it and then
there's like some dirt, right?
455
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:12,760
And then there's a tree.
And it was actually this one
456
00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:16,120
tree.
It was a ginkgo tree that was
457
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,840
growing in on our street.
And I didn't know it at the
458
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,600
time, but it was like a very, we
had, we had oaks in, in this
459
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:27,840
ginkgo tree and it was just
very, it was a very cool and
460
00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,800
very different tree in.
But it, what I just thought of
461
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,760
right now with the oak trees and
your, and your question was
462
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:40,040
that, I mean, in, in cities, we
have seasons, you know, we don't
463
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:44,760
have seasons in, in San Diego
too much, but we have fall in
464
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:46,640
that, you know, in the East
Coast, there's fall and then
465
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:49,640
leaves fall and there's piles of
leaves or dried out leaves.
466
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:54,200
And so, you know, throw your
puppy in a pile of leaves, you
467
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,480
know, or like bring just, you
have to be creative.
468
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,080
I feel like if you keep a
childlike mentality and, and
469
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,560
create and be creative, like how
can I bring the outside inside?
470
00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,480
You know, there's always ways.
I mean, people are creative,
471
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:12,200
they'll figure it out.
Just don't be attached to not
472
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:19,880
making a mess.
So am I correct in that you use
473
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:24,680
bioenergetic scans?
I do not currently do that you.
474
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,840
Don't currently do that.
OK, Then I'll need to cut that
475
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,640
out.
OK.
476
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,080
So you have talked a little bit
though.
477
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,840
You've talked about acupuncture,
you talked about Chinese
478
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,600
medicine or you know, herbs,
homeopathy.
479
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,840
These are all things that, well,
homeopathy, I think it's
480
00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:47,640
interesting because you know
earlier said like you do the
481
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,680
emergency medicine and then we
kind of follow up with a lot of
482
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:56,280
the more holistic modalities.
I know a lot of people and you
483
00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,800
know, obviously most pet parents
probably don't know this, but a
484
00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:04,600
lot of pet parents who are
really into homeopathy can use
485
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:09,200
that certain homeopathic
remedies in emergency situations
486
00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:13,360
to get them like to while you're
in transport to like an
487
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,080
emergency agency room.
Is that something that you also
488
00:32:17,080 --> 00:32:20,400
kind of educate people on so
that they maybe can have a
489
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,960
toolbox with them?
Yeah, I mean, I'm in in certain
490
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,400
lectures that I do and not
every, you know, obviously you
491
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,240
can see that there's a lot going
on here, right?
492
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,200
And I could tell you that most
people when you start
493
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:38,360
introducing, if they're not, if
they're not seasoned or I did
494
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:42,960
into holistic healthcare, it's
completely new to them.
495
00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:48,360
And so it's kind of like putting
your toe in the water because if
496
00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,280
you, if I start to tell them,
oh, you could do this, this,
497
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,440
this, this, this, this, this,
this, this, and then this,
498
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,400
they're completely overwhelmed
and they don't know where to
499
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,560
start.
And so there's this kind of
500
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,480
little nuance about like, so
where do you, what do you, how
501
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,120
do you start?
Because I could tell people
502
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,400
like, yeah, you could, you
should go out and get this
503
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,120
homeopathic remedy.
It's really good for seizures.
504
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,360
And this is good for bug bites,
you know, and, and you can have
505
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,160
that in your little toolbox and
they'll be like, OK, thanks.
506
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:19,880
And that's the end of that, you
know, it never happens, you
507
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,160
know, so but I try, you know, I
try.
508
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,040
It depends.
Usually these those kind of
509
00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:29,360
introductions to different
modalities comes out in sort of
510
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:32,800
organic conversations as we
build a relationship.
511
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:37,320
You know, I mean, unless they,
unless they invite them to a
512
00:33:37,320 --> 00:33:40,040
course that I'm taking, I'm
giving and say, OK, learn
513
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,440
everything you have to learn and
do that because there's a lot of
514
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:43,960
holistic veterinarians that are
doing that.
515
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:48,320
They offer courses, right, to
try to get pet parents to have a
516
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,560
more global thing.
But and I mean, the first and
517
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,960
foremost, we all talk about diet
because that seems to be the one
518
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,960
where everyone falls short on to
begin with.
519
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,440
You know, it was that diet
conversation and then the the
520
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,720
microbiome helping to
reestablish the health of that,
521
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:06,400
which which helps with the gut
brain access and it helps with
522
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,760
anxiety.
You know, can you kind of have
523
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:13,120
to do all of these things.
So it's like, where do you
524
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:15,280
start?
You know.
525
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:21,440
And and and you just start with.
People are more comfortable
526
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,480
starting, which is usually the
food.
527
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,120
Yeah.
I mean, it's definitely the
528
00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,880
thing that I think we feel like
we have the most control over
529
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:35,600
day-to-day.
It's it's something that we can
530
00:34:35,639 --> 00:34:37,360
like, you know, it's very
tactile.
531
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:42,400
It's very, it's something that
we, I think kind of innately
532
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,040
just as like, you know, being
human beings.
533
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:50,960
No, like we have this relation
to other human beings, but also
534
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,159
animals in that like we're
sharing.
535
00:34:54,159 --> 00:34:57,120
Love.
When we share food, yeah.
536
00:34:57,360 --> 00:34:58,600
Or at least that's how it should
be.
537
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:00,720
That's how it should be.
I agree with that.
538
00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:03,200
I love, I, I love food.
I love to cook food.
539
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,640
I have a good relationship with
food and, you know, I like
540
00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,800
fresh, organic things and, and
you know, that translates into
541
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:13,800
my family and my, my animals,
You know, right?
542
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:18,000
In the veterinary world, that's
not the norm, right?
543
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:22,920
Conversation with, with, with
pet parents, right?
544
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:29,200
They're told to, to eat
processed foods and prescription
545
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:34,040
processed foods, and they're
also told not to eat any other
546
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:38,040
food than that by a trusted
resource, which is their
547
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,400
veterinarian.
So that's where the problem
548
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:45,960
starts, you know, because we
need it's, that's not, that's
549
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:51,560
not a true narrative.
So you have to sort of untie the
550
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,200
knots, right?
And because I, I have met people
551
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:58,720
that are so afraid, afraid of
feeding real food to their
552
00:35:58,720 --> 00:36:01,600
animals that they won't do it.
They will watch their animals
553
00:36:01,600 --> 00:36:03,920
starve.
And I, I don't understand that,
554
00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:06,640
you know, just, and, and I, and
I blame, honestly, I blame the
555
00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:08,960
vets.
I blame the veterinarians for
556
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,400
put instilling that sense of
fear in them, you know?
557
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,440
It is.
I know I've said this so many
558
00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:18,120
times.
I have had on multiple occasions
559
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:24,440
that are either veterinarians or
a tech, a vet tech that that's
560
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:28,880
the one that gets me.
Like like I I can see clear as
561
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:33,520
day in my head a vet tech
walking up to me at an emergency
562
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:38,760
hospital telling me if I didn't
feed this prescription kennel to
563
00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:40,760
my cat, I was going to kill my
cat.
564
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:46,160
And like, that just breaks my
heart because I know it's
565
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:50,160
happening to so many people and
they're like, well, I don't want
566
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:53,480
my cat to die or my dog to die,
right?
567
00:36:53,480 --> 00:36:57,200
Like, and I don't want to be
responsible for them dying.
568
00:36:58,240 --> 00:37:00,680
It's it breaks my heart so so
much.
569
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:02,880
I don't know what to say.
I mean, that's why I want to
570
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:07,040
empower people.
So kind of circles back to the
571
00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:11,440
energy thing, right?
Because when you empower people
572
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:17,880
to get into their heart space,
you have a deep connection with
573
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:23,320
your inner knowing and your
intuition and you have this,
574
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:28,440
this level of trust that comes
from your own inner source,
575
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,520
right?
And so when that is established
576
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:37,640
inside of you, then you have
this, you're empowered to be in
577
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:41,600
front of people like that, you
know, and say, you know, that
578
00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:45,840
doesn't sit right with me, you
know, can you give me more
579
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:50,080
information about that?
Or is there some research you
580
00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:52,160
can show me?
Or, you know, you can either
581
00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,680
call them out or make them prove
what they're saying.
582
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,800
Or you could just say, OK, thank
you for your information and
583
00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:00,760
just walk away and just do
something else.
584
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:06,360
You know, you have the, you have
that choice to, to, to decide if
585
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:09,760
you want to engage in a
conversation or you just want to
586
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,400
ignore what they said and just
move on.
587
00:38:11,720 --> 00:38:15,640
But you don't come from a place
of like you're feeling uncertain
588
00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:20,520
or attacked or fearful.
You know, and that that goes
589
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,160
across the board for everything,
not just food for every
590
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,720
conversation that you have.
Because you know, there's that
591
00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,920
ancient saying.
The heart knows.
592
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,920
The heart always knows.
Except we've lost.
593
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,880
We've lost the way to our heart.
They say that the the longest
594
00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:36,800
Rd. is between your heart and
your head.
595
00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:38,840
Oh my gosh.
Right.
596
00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,600
Yes.
We've lost our way and, and when
597
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:44,560
we find that way back,
everything becomes much more
598
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,400
clearer and then simple.
And you're not, you're not
599
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:53,120
afraid anymore, You know, with
the sense of knowing there is No
600
00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:57,840
Fear.
And I say that because that
601
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:03,240
translates into everything like
say, even in the ER as, as a
602
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:08,640
seasoned ER doctor, knowing what
I know when something comes in,
603
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:12,360
whether it's one case, 2 cases,
3 cases, 4 cases all at once.
604
00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:19,920
I, I maintain this sense of calm
usually, unless it's usually, I
605
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,840
mean, it's a lot going on, but
usually because I have this like
606
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,240
the bird's eye view of the
situation and I can triage it
607
00:39:27,240 --> 00:39:31,360
and I can discern like who needs
my attention 1st and, and know
608
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,800
what I need to do and how to
implement what I, what I need,
609
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,840
how to delegate that into the
situation with the text that I
610
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,720
have.
So there's a level of control
611
00:39:41,720 --> 00:39:44,320
that comes from a place of
knowing, right?
612
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,640
And I remember what I felt like
when I was very new to the
613
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:52,560
situation and how I was like, Oh
my God, what do I do?
614
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,240
You know, there was fear because
I didn't know.
615
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:00,640
So when you know, that fear goes
away because you're like, OK, I
616
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:01,320
got this.
So.
617
00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:05,280
And even if you don't know what
to do, ultimately you know what
618
00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,720
to do next.
I had to write that down because
619
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:12,080
that's just so powerful with a
sense of knowing there is No
620
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:13,800
Fear.
I love that so much.
621
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,880
So one other thing I'm curious
about with kind of the whole
622
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:22,880
like energy part of this, I know
blood work, for example, we're
623
00:40:22,880 --> 00:40:25,840
just doing, you know, complete
blood panel or whatever we're
624
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:31,360
doing with with our animals.
It can take, it can take a while
625
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:35,040
for things to be breaking down
in the body before we see that
626
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:39,160
in the blood work.
Do you often get a sense of what
627
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:42,400
whatever you're doing, whatever
type of energy work you're
628
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:46,480
doing, do you often come up with
things that are like
629
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:51,880
contradictory two maybe blood
panels or labs that you're like
630
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,680
or or does it just help you
interpret them better?
631
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:58,400
Maybe?
I'm curious how like you're
632
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:03,800
blending all of this.
Well, I mean, lab work is a
633
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,560
piece of information, right?
It's just part of one piece of
634
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:11,040
the puzzle.
And it depends on the type of
635
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,120
lab work you're you're doing,
right?
636
00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:14,480
Sure.
Different lab work.
637
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:21,040
So your basics, you know, CDC
chemistry profile is a very
638
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,880
superficial, you know, kind of
lab work.
639
00:41:24,240 --> 00:41:28,880
It's not like your nutrient
profiles or your mitochondrial
640
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:32,280
function, right?
Or your your vitamin mineral
641
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:34,320
toxin.
It's not, it's not that, right?
642
00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,840
Those have a little bit of a
deeper essence.
643
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:41,200
You know, what's cellular level?
This is more of an organ level
644
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:44,200
kind of thing.
And so for instance, people say,
645
00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,320
can you diagnose cancer on blood
work?
646
00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:52,080
And I was like, I'm like, yeah,
you know, if your dog is really,
647
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:55,800
really sick and his blood work
is completely normal, he has
648
00:41:55,800 --> 00:42:01,240
cancer, which is so interesting
because, because I have seen
649
00:42:01,240 --> 00:42:05,360
dogs whittled with masses inside
their abdomens inside that, you
650
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,560
know, with their liver tumors
and mesenteric tumors, whatever.
651
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:10,520
It's like just cancer on the
inside.
652
00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,040
And their lab work is completely
normal.
653
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:17,920
And so it's a piece of a puzzle
and, and everything that you,
654
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:23,480
every piece of information, you
have to take it into context of
655
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:28,160
what's happening in the system.
You know, so I don't panic when
656
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:33,840
I have a cat that comes in and
the creatinine is 15, you know,
657
00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,280
I mean, he's acting sick, but
that doesn't mean it's a death
658
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,440
sentence for this cat.
Because with proper care in the
659
00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:44,920
ER, right, getting his, maybe
getting him on some IV fluids.
660
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:48,640
And, you know, I like to use
Chinese herbs for that to help
661
00:42:48,640 --> 00:42:52,000
increase, you know, blood flow
to the kidneys, you know, when
662
00:42:52,000 --> 00:42:54,720
when the inflammation is gone.
But in the acute phases of
663
00:42:54,720 --> 00:42:58,920
kidney failure, it needs some,
it needs fluids and it needs
664
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,120
support and maybe some
antibiotics if you have an
665
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:04,880
infection and drugs to help you
feel less nauseous because
666
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,520
they're nauseous, right?
And so you, you help that.
667
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:09,520
And then you see the creatinine
levels come down.
668
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:12,960
You know, one day they're 15,
the next day they're 12, the
669
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,400
next day they're 8.
And then maybe this cap
670
00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:18,760
baseline's at 8.
And that's his new norm.
671
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:23,400
But that's super high.
I mean, a high upper level of
672
00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:27,480
creatinine, maybe 1.9 is, is
kind of acceptable.
673
00:43:28,200 --> 00:43:30,680
And then if you have a
creatinine of eight, most
674
00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:34,480
veterinarians might say, Oh my
God, your cat has, you know,
675
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:40,480
horrible kidney disease and you
should consider quality of life
676
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,560
and putting him to sleep.
And then so I look at the cat,
677
00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:44,840
I'm like, OK, well, what's he
doing?
678
00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,320
He's walking around, he's
eating.
679
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:51,720
He's seems like he doesn't know
he has a crack, you know, 8 no.
680
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,480
And so that's his new norm.
So let's support the system
681
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,320
where they're at.
And that's when you start doing
682
00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,320
all the integrative things, you
know, like the acupuncture and
683
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,680
the Chinese herbs and the
homeopathy and the massage
684
00:44:03,720 --> 00:44:06,920
therapy and the food therapy,
you know, things like that.
685
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:11,960
And the icing on that is the
energetics where you have to
686
00:44:11,960 --> 00:44:18,240
help the owners not be in a
place of fear and panic, right?
687
00:44:18,240 --> 00:44:20,880
And anticipation that their
animals going to die at any
688
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:26,040
moment, because that always
seems to be that next level.
689
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:30,800
That it is something that I I
find that more difficult than
690
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,040
anything.
If I'm working with with a
691
00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:40,040
client for their pet, trying to
get their anxiety, I'm trying to
692
00:44:40,040 --> 00:44:46,600
get them like as the pet parent
to get them to, I mean for back
693
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,120
of a lack of a better word, like
just to chill the fuck out,
694
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:53,960
Chill, chill out.
You know, just like take a step
695
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:59,560
back and like watch your dog or
your cat playing and enjoying
696
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:04,000
life and like, you know, leaning
into that more.
697
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:08,920
That's what I find to be like
the most difficult part.
698
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:10,960
Right.
Well then that goes back to the
699
00:45:10,960 --> 00:45:14,240
original conversation of our
disconnect.
700
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,280
With.
And the harmony in nature,
701
00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:20,920
because if you have this
connection between that and this
702
00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:24,200
understanding of the cycles of
life and then how nature unfolds
703
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:28,960
itself, then the concept of life
and death come into play.
704
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,520
And then the concept of living
comes into play, you know, and
705
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:35,760
how are you going to live
between those two moments?
706
00:45:36,240 --> 00:45:38,760
You know?
And, you know, I think Albert
707
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,600
Einstein said, you know, you
could go through life is if
708
00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:45,400
everything is a miracle or if
nothing was a miracle, you know,
709
00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:48,520
and it's that it's just then you
seem like you're more, you're
710
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:50,440
OK.
You know, when we're more
711
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:54,760
present in the moment and
mindful of what's happening, we
712
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:59,160
become appreciative and, and
have more gratitude for what we
713
00:45:59,160 --> 00:46:02,560
have in the moment, right?
It's always being present and in
714
00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:06,200
the moment is the most helpful
for any of that because in the
715
00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,560
moment, you have your cat that's
in front of you.
716
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:12,560
He's purring, he's eating, he's
loving on you, and that's it.
717
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:16,760
That's all that's happening.
You know, he's not festering
718
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:19,760
about a creatinine of eight, you
know, and he's not thinking
719
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:21,760
about the day you're not there
with him.
720
00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:24,720
And so you, you shouldn't be
doing that either.
721
00:46:24,720 --> 00:46:27,360
It doesn't benefit you.
It doesn't benefit the cat.
722
00:46:28,040 --> 00:46:30,720
You know why?
Why keep thinking about the day
723
00:46:30,720 --> 00:46:35,080
you're going to die and not
spend the time thinking about
724
00:46:35,080 --> 00:46:39,960
how you're living?
So powerful so I feel like I
725
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:42,760
feel like I tell people all the
time like my podcast is my
726
00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:46,640
favorite thing that I do and for
so many reasons because I get to
727
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:49,880
meet wonderful people like you
for the fact that like I'm
728
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:52,000
learning just like everybody
else is learning.
729
00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:57,120
That's listening to this, but
also a lot of times I feel like
730
00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:01,800
whatever messages are coming
that day, whoever I am talking
731
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,160
to that day, it's like I needed
to hear.
732
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:06,760
I don't know who is out there is
listening and who also feels
733
00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,400
that way, but like I needed to
hear that.
734
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:13,200
And I definitely feel like I
needed to hear so much of what
735
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,360
you said today.
And I know, I know that you have
736
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:23,800
a recurring kind of like a, a
live podcasty type thing with a
737
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:27,880
dear friend of both of ours, Pam
Russell with perfectly holistic.
738
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:30,880
So that's definitely somewhere
where people can find you and
739
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,120
listen to a lot more of what you
have to say.
740
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:35,720
But I heard you say something
earlier about courses.
741
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:39,360
Yeah.
So I am in the process of
742
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:44,120
developing courses because I
think that they're a really good
743
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:46,400
way for people to get
information.
744
00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:50,880
And so it's not currently out
yet, but it hopefully will be
745
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:54,320
soon.
One of the courses, it's called
746
00:47:54,360 --> 00:48:00,120
the Bio Epic protocol, which I
really, I really like it.
747
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,000
It's, it's, it's going to be a
wonderful course for a lot of
748
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:05,600
people.
And what it does, it unpacks all
749
00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:09,240
the layers of healing through
the, the four layers, which I
750
00:48:09,240 --> 00:48:14,320
call bio Epic EPIC.
So it's the bio, energetic,
751
00:48:14,440 --> 00:48:17,560
biophysical, biointelligence and
biochemical.
752
00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,880
And so when we learn about all
of these things with everything
753
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:25,920
is important in the picture, you
know, you, you still, you still
754
00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:29,640
need to eat, you still need to
drink, you still need to, you
755
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,760
know, you need to detox, your
body sweats, your body
756
00:48:32,760 --> 00:48:34,360
eliminates.
So we're human, we're
757
00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:39,680
biological, ooey gooey systems
in, but we're fueled by energy.
758
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,920
And when you, when you can tap
into that energy on a, on a
759
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:48,800
daily basis, you can recharge
your batteries and give your
760
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:51,440
body what it needs.
I mean, I, I did a deep dive
761
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:55,200
into the mitochondria, the
little powerhouse of our cells,
762
00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:57,400
right?
Without them, you're you, you
763
00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:01,080
die, right?
And they are health.
764
00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:04,240
Mitochondrial health is always a
big topic in regenerative
765
00:49:04,240 --> 00:49:07,600
medicine and in just holistic
healthcare to begin with, you
766
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,160
know, support your mitochondria,
right?
767
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,240
At all costs, support your
mitochondria.
768
00:49:12,240 --> 00:49:16,880
And OK, so how do you do that?
The two simplest ways for you to
769
00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:24,080
support your mitochondria is to
give it oxygen and light, right?
770
00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:29,800
Electrons and oxygen molecules.
And so that means going out in
771
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:34,360
the sun and taking deep breaths.
And that's kind of if you, if
772
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:38,080
you go out in the morning or
find a a time where it's
773
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,560
beautifully sunny, usually dawn
and dusk are these sweet spots
774
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:44,320
for meditations and
mitochondrial health.
775
00:49:44,320 --> 00:49:46,840
The body really resonates with
those frequencies as they're
776
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:52,320
coming in and have this mindful
intention to support your
777
00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:55,360
mitochondria.
When you're doing that, you're
778
00:49:55,360 --> 00:49:58,000
going to start to feel that you
are feeling better.
779
00:49:59,960 --> 00:50:02,040
So little daily practices like
that.
780
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:06,600
And because everything is like,
it's all one thing in a circle
781
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:08,880
of life.
And you know, I always ask
782
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,320
yourself if everything is a
circle, where's the starting
783
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:16,240
point in a circle?
And literally it's just pick a
784
00:50:16,240 --> 00:50:20,760
point and go start there.
You can start anywhere in a
785
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,840
circle.
I love that so much because I
786
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:27,200
think that's one thing that like
inevitably we always ask,
787
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,120
whoever's talking is always
asking like where do we start?
788
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,680
And everybody has a different
place, right?
789
00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:35,760
So I love that explanation so
much.
790
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:37,360
Like just pick up, just pick a
place.
791
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:38,440
It does.
It doesn't matter.
792
00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:40,280
Just pick a place.
I love that.
793
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:43,840
Yeah, because it will lead you.
I call you following the bread
794
00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,360
crumbs.
You know, it'll lead you one
795
00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:48,600
place will lead you to another
place, will lead you to another
796
00:50:48,600 --> 00:50:51,360
place, and then you'll go, Oh, I
remember that I'm going to add
797
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:54,800
some, some greens to my food or
oh, I remember that I'm going to
798
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,880
go out for a walk.
And you know, it's, it's just
799
00:50:57,880 --> 00:51:00,640
that we all have a toolbox and
then we don't always use all the
800
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,800
tools in our toolbox.
Oh, for sure, you.
801
00:51:04,440 --> 00:51:07,000
Know we just we, but we know
they're there and I think
802
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:09,640
sometimes just knowing that
they're there is enough.
803
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:14,080
Honestly, sometimes just knowing
that it's right there, that the
804
00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:18,320
possibility that it can, it can
have an effect, which is an
805
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,120
interesting concept in and of
itself.
806
00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:24,920
You know, it's like the brain is
it our bodies and our brains and
807
00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:30,400
our, our neuroendocrine systems
are so in tune with our thoughts
808
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:36,480
and our emotions that the body
doesn't discern the difference
809
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:42,240
between an experience that
you've had and thought that
810
00:51:42,240 --> 00:51:46,560
you've had.
So, and that's why Dreamtime is
811
00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:49,080
so powerful.
That's why people have, will
812
00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:52,800
have a dream and feel like they,
they, you know, they, they died,
813
00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:55,440
right?
Or they have dreams and they
814
00:51:55,440 --> 00:52:00,840
feel amazing, you know, and it's
like, wow, I feel like that just
815
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:04,960
happened.
You know, I mean, I, I've had
816
00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:09,040
dreams where I'm kissing some
like amazing, beautiful human
817
00:52:09,040 --> 00:52:11,280
being that I don't even know
existed.
818
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:16,080
And then I and I and I wake and
I wake up like, Oh my God, I'm
819
00:52:16,080 --> 00:52:17,880
in love.
Like who is this person?
820
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:20,840
Oh my goodness, I know.
I feel like I could talk about
821
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:24,480
dreams forever too, because I
have, I actually spent a really
822
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,840
long time, I don't know if I
wasn't dreaming or if I just
823
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,800
didn't remember my dreams.
That's hard, you know, a hard
824
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:32,920
discernment to make.
But I've been very intentional
825
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:36,840
about trying to remember my
dreams lately and have I've
826
00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:42,360
definitely had like a lot of big
life changes in the past year as
827
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,920
well and have been doing a lot
of shadow work.
828
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:49,120
And like I've definitely seen
that come through in my dreams.
829
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:53,080
And that is it's powerful.
It's very powerful.
830
00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:57,040
Our dreams are a lot more
powerful than we think, which
831
00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,440
makes me wonder so much about
our pets dreams.
832
00:53:00,440 --> 00:53:04,600
But you know, I don't, I don't
even know how people analyze all
833
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:06,360
of that.
That's that's beyond my.
834
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:09,840
Yeah, well, you know, it's the
dreams.
835
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,720
The the dreams are are your
subconscious that are coming
836
00:53:12,720 --> 00:53:15,280
through.
But it's very interesting that
837
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:19,040
and I've had conversations with
Mike's subconscious before and
838
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,760
asked it like, why is it so
encrypted?
839
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:24,920
Yeah.
Why, what, what, why can't you
840
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:28,880
just say what you want to say?
Likewise have to be meshed in
841
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:32,760
these weird timelines and, and,
and symbology, right?
842
00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:37,040
And codes that are, you know,
and you know, one of the answers
843
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:41,800
that I got was that your
subconscious is always driving
844
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:47,040
you to creation and to be
creative and to use your
845
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:51,960
imagination because it's, it's
where when you take imagination
846
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:57,040
plus and creation is this
ultimate place of well-being.
847
00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:00,960
And it's sort of it forces you
to use your imagination.
848
00:54:00,960 --> 00:54:03,920
You know, when you're, when
you're, but when you're running
849
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,400
through a forest and you're
being chased by a bear, you
850
00:54:06,400 --> 00:54:08,920
know, like, what does that mean?
Like who's the bear?
851
00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:13,960
You know, the bear represents,
you know, my mother or my father
852
00:54:13,960 --> 00:54:17,000
or some authority figure that
I'm running away from, like,
853
00:54:17,040 --> 00:54:20,480
like what you know.
And so there's all these when I,
854
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,160
you know, when I started doing
because I dreamt so much, I did
855
00:54:23,160 --> 00:54:25,680
a lot of dream research and
dream interpretations.
856
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,840
And there are these universal
things that sort of have a
857
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,320
theme, you know, what it means.
And then there's your
858
00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:36,440
interpretation of what it means
for you, you know, and everybody
859
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:38,600
knows what their dreams mean for
them.
860
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:43,840
And you just need a little bit
of the questions, you know,
861
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:48,000
like, and I'll and I'll work
with people to help interpret
862
00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:49,440
their dreams and they'll tell
me.
863
00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,040
And I was like, OK, well, what
did that mean for you?
864
00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:56,360
You know, what was the
significance for that?
865
00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:58,600
And as soon as you start asking
people these questions, they
866
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:02,080
know, you know that all.
And you get, and then you get
867
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:08,720
these people like, Oh my God, I
just realized that that was, you
868
00:55:08,720 --> 00:55:13,000
know, what I needed to do.
Like, and then they just go out
869
00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:16,120
and they change their lives or
quit their jobs or I don't know.
870
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:19,400
Yeah, yeah, we know.
We know.
871
00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:23,080
We know so much.
We really, really do.
872
00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:26,080
And it's, it's not even, it's
not in here.
873
00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:30,080
It's out here.
The knowing is out here in this
874
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,960
field of information, you know,
and that gets you into the
875
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:37,520
quantum realm and talks and
talking about, you know, quantum
876
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:42,000
realities and the matrix, you
know, of, of where your mind is
877
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,120
and where thoughts come from.
And, you know, the, the
878
00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:49,120
collective consciousness, you
know, that's a whole other kind
879
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,920
of beautiful conversation to
have.
880
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:54,880
And, and it's, it's when you
sort of take all of that and you
881
00:55:54,880 --> 00:55:58,960
put it into this one moment, you
realize that ultimately you're
882
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:03,400
all, you're all OK.
Like it's it's all OK, just.
883
00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:09,320
After talking with Doctor Barry
Sands, we well, after recording,
884
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,400
we talked a little bit more
about her work.
885
00:56:12,400 --> 00:56:14,960
She's such an incredible human
being.
886
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:18,320
But she wanted me to make sure
that, you know, there is a free
887
00:56:18,320 --> 00:56:22,400
survey on her website,

set.
894

But I just absolutely love how
and you'll see on the website
895
00:56:55,280 --> 00:57:01,880
she has something that she calls
alumina Sciencia, which is
896
00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:07,360
combining the OR bridging the
gap.
897
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:09,400
Excuse me, I want to get the
wording right.
898
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:15,600
Bridging the gap between science
and spirit or mysticism and
899
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:19,600
building, building a bridge to
higher consciousness that allows
900
00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:24,480
us to experience with elegance
and divinity, the essence of
901
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:29,200
being in the moment and knowing
that everything just is.
902
00:57:29,680 --> 00:57:35,600
So go to Doctor Berry sands.com.

00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:13,160
She's.
So inspiring.
914
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:17,880
I always love seeing her and
talking to her, and I'm just
915
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:22,840
really glad that she came on to
talk to me and all of you.
916
00:58:23,400 --> 00:58:25,640
All right pet parents, you
already know that I talk all the
917
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:29,680
time about needing to stop as
much as we possibly can.
918
00:58:29,680 --> 00:58:32,960
Feeding our fur babies garbage,
for lack of a better word.
919
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:35,440
That's what we talk about here a
lot.
920
00:58:35,760 --> 00:58:37,960
And again, doing the best we
can.
921
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,560
That is the message above any
and everything else.
922
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:44,440
The more we learn, the more we
know we need to make some
923
00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:45,000
changes.
