We’ve all heard the term Paleo, and now the latest buzz word in diet and nutrition is Keto. But what does it really mean, how does it work, and why would you consider following this type of diet and lifestyle? We discuss all this with my guest on this episode, Naomi Norwood. Naomi has been one of our clients at The Strength Code for almost 6 years now and she has shared with us her personal journey discovering the Paleo Lifestyle, how it changed her life, and how she ultimately became an expert and now serves as the President of the Ancestral Health Society (AHS). The AHS is motivated by the belief that evolution has much to teach us about healthful living and effective healing through their annual Symposium and their Journal of Evolution and Health. The AHS Symposium brings together a community of scientists, healthcare professionals, and health enthusiasts who collaborate to understand health challenges from an evolutionary perspective. The Journal is a peer-reviewed open-access journal serving academic researchers and clinical practitioners who seek to cultivate interdisciplinary collaboration to develop and test evolutionary approaches to health. Naomi has a wealth of information to give us and has also included an extensive list of resources, books and websites about Ancestral Health that are included in the Show Notes here. Ancestral Health Resources Ancestral Health Society: https://ancestralhealth.org/ Ancestral Health Symposium, AHS19, is scheduled for August 8 through 10, at the University of California, San Diego.

Have you ever been hypnotized? Would you believe me if I told you that we all spend parts of every day in hypnosis? For example, have you ever been driving home and suddenly realized that you don’t remember the drive? That is in fact a level of hypnosis. Hypnosis is far more than just zoning out or being on auto pilot though, and I was able to experience several professional sessions with my guest, Certified Hypnotherapist Britt Sheflin. I can assure you she didn’t make me do anything silly or embarrassing! In fact, Britt explains that no one can be hypnotized to do anything they don’t want to do. It is always under our control.

Through the course of me doing this podcast, I have become more and more aware of energy. The energy that surrounds us every day – the energy of our thoughts, words and actions – the energy of others – the energy of nature. I have also become more aware of how to tap into that energy – through meditation, breath work, sounds and movement. Also, by learning about ancient healing practices and chakras, mantras and ceremonies. As I gain this knowledge, I realize that I have so much more to learn and there are many paths to achieve what we define as success, or fulfillment in life, and that definition is constantly evolving. This is why I’m so very excited to introduce you to Dharma Love. Dharma is a healer, or as she puts it – a “helper” – it is not what she does, it is who she is and her mission is to help others have the most authentic relationship with themselves – to help them to awaken their own gifts. Dharma believes these powers have always been a part of us, and that they stay dormant until one is ready to acknowledge them and make these unique powers part of every day life. If you feel you’re ready for a vibrational change that will translate to the discovery of your life purpose, then I cannot wait for you to meet this beautiful being. www.iamdharmalove.com Instagram: @iamdharmalove https://linktr.ee/iamdharmalove Check out our Sound Mind & Body YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4EanYu-gJYsBydq-i4vz2Q Contact Sheila with what's the most Woo-Woo thing you've ever done by visiting www.soundmindbodypodcast.com Vibrant Living Wellness Center Podcast http://bit.ly/VibrantLivingWellnessCenterPodcast Join Producer Tim Edwards on the 28-Day Cleanse! http://bit.ly/28DayDetoxCleanse If interested in producing a podcast of your own, like the Sound, Mind, & Body Podcast, contact Tim Edwards at Tim@InBoundPodcasting.com

Meditation Master Swami Deva Arhato and Yogi Karen Russell of YogaNoHo In this episode we continue to explore meditation with Sheila’s guests, Karen Russell, owner of Yoga Noho and Swami Deva Arhato (aka Shashi) – a Master Meditation teacher and Founder of Nirvana Yoga Shala, a yoga and meditation teacher training school and healing center in Mysore, India. Sheila recently experienced a Meditation Workshop led by Shashi at YogaNoho and was introduced to several different sutras (practices) of meditation based on sound and light. Swami Deva Arhato or Shashi -- is a Yogi, Shaman and Founder of Nirvana Yoga Shala in Mysore, India. At the age of 16 his mother’s sudden death created a deep desire to understand the meaning of life, and he started on his spiritual path. At the age of 27 he resigned from his job and started traveling to different ashrams in the Himalayas where he visited many ashrams to deepen his knowledge and in 2000 he was renamed to Swami Deva Arhato, which means “Divine Witnesser ”. In addition to being a Master Meditation Teacher, he is trained in yoga, massage, Akashic records, past life regression, Munay ki , Tantric Pulsation breathwork , Bardo and many more practices. In 2006 he started” “Nirvana Yoga Shala “ with the main intention to help spiritual seekers work simultaneously on Body, Mind, Emotion and Spirit for the multi-dimensional expansion of human consciousness. Karen Russell is a Master Yoga Teacher and co- owner of YogaNoho, but she was formerly a singer and dancer working with legends such as Michael Jackson, Madonna, Bette Midler, Kenny Chesney and Alice Cooper. A dance injury in 2000 ultimately led her to a professional yoga career and since 2005 Karen has been an active teacher, producer, community outreach representative, and owner of several yoga studios. Karen and Shashi are also partnering in a wellness channel soon to be launched this year. @nirvana_yoga_shala_mysore @Swami_deva_arhato http://mysoreyoga.in/teachers/swami-deva-arhato-founder https://www.yoganoho.com/ @yoga_noho Check out our Sound Mind & Body YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4EanYu-gJYsBydq-i4vz2Q Contact Sheila with what's the most Woo-Woo thing you've ever done by visiting www.soundmindbodypodcast.com Sound Mind & Body is brought to you in part by Audible.

Explore Enlighten Evolve - Celebrating 2018 Join Sheila as she celebrates a year of podcasting in 2018 with her producer Tim Edwards of The InBound Podcasting Network, the one and only Lisa May of 95.5 KLOS and Kala Maxym of 5 Senses Tastings. Kala created and presents a very special music and tasting story based on the Sound Mind & Body mantra – Explore Enlighten Evolve. Listen to the extraordinary music and tasting that Kala procured as Sheila, Tim, Lisa and Kala reflect on the year and discuss the different ways they have explored, been enlightened and evolved. EXPLORE: To seek out new experiences, information, and education with an open mind. To get outside your comfort zone and try out new territories of mind, body and soul. As Sheila says, “When I think of exploring I think of that feeling of excitement, and being a little scared when I’m trying something new. That’s what I call those woo-woo moments.” ENLIGHTEN: Through experiencing and learning, your mind, body and spirit are enlightened. You discover new thoughts and feelings, new ideas and attitudes, and new places for you to shine. The result of being enlightened is that you evolve. EVOLVE: Sheila believes this is a life purpose to do her part to evolve in this lifetime, which in turn will help the entire human race evolve. In order to evolve we must be open to explore and experience new things, new thoughts and new habits. Through that we are enlightened and see our world differently. We explored so many different topics during 2018 with all of our wonderful guests, what were some that resonated with you? The episode ends with a wonderful rendition of “Twas the Night Before Christmas” narrated by Sheila’s dad, Mike Melody aka Grampa Melody. Happy Holidays to All!

Gina & Shanila describe their journeys in becoming Sound Alchemists and what it has done for them personally.

In this very special episode, Sheila introduces one of her life long role models, Nancy Davidson – aka NahNah. Sheila met Nancy when she was about 24 years old, and was immediately impressed with her optimistic attitude, beauty and style. Nancy is Sheila’s son Michael’s grandmother – thus she is known as NahNah. Throughout the years Nancy has been a role model for healthy, beauty and fitness and has been imparting her knowledge and wisdom to her family and loved ones – which eventually turned into the phrase – “NahNah Says”. NahNah talks to Sheila about her early years when she worked on Park Avenue in New York City as a Dennison Copy girl and didn’t know about healthy eating, how she was introduced to nutrition and wellness by her mentor, Ruth Jarrett, and how that transformed her life forever. NahNah shares some of her top recommendations including Swedish Bitters, juice fasting, and a great exercise that only involves breathing called Oxycize, and even coffee enemas! NahNah has much more to say and we will be sharing her tips and tricks in future “NahNah Says” posts.

Leigh is a speaker, parenting expert and a spiritual teacher with a Masters in Spiritual Psychology and is committed to being of service by shining her Light and sharing her story. Leigh inspires others by being unapologetically who she is – she has been described as being ballsy, vulnerable, and funny as hell – and yes, she tells you to own your sh*t! Leigh relates her journey growing up in a family of 6 children with a mother who was mentally ill and unavailable to her. She explains that when she was a child, she thought she wasn’t even worth her mom’s attention. But she has learned through her life journey to let go of that disempowering belief and use her story to impact the world, teaching others the power of being connected to your authentic self. Follow Leigh on her Facebook Live Series “33” as she discusses mindfulness, relationships, self care, FYG & GYG (find your gift and give your gift), and her own unique style of “ownersh*t”, as the parenting expert on Deepack Chopra’s JIYO app, or work with her privately.

In this episode we explore the 5 senses – taste, sight, touch, smell and hearing – in an incredibly creative and fun way! Join Sheila and producer Tim Edwards as they are taken through a 5 Senses Tasting with guest Kala Maxym. Kala is a professional opera singer, polyglot, cheese fiend, and grammar nerd who left her "real" job and moved to LA in the same week just two and a half years ago and created Five Senses Tastings where she now serves as CEO and Chief Event Composer. Kala's custom designed events combine the age-old art of storytelling with the science of taste, smell and sound to create unique experiences, enticing guests to explore the deeper meaning of the event and moment or person they are celebrating. You will never think of wine tasting the same again after listening to this episode! www.fivesensestastings.com www.songandtonic.com www.kalamaxym.com www.bitbyafox.com www.icla.org https://join.bethematch.org/piesforpeggy Check out our Sound Mind & Body YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4EanYu-gJYsBydq-i4vz2Q Contact Sheila with what's the most Woo-Woo thing you've ever done by visiting www.soundmindbodypodcast.com Sound Mind & Body is brought to you in part by Audible.

Sheila speaks to Tamara Mark, an extraordinary woman who is the mother of two severely autistic boys. Tamara’s life story is inspiring. Tamara is an accomplished Broadway actress and dancer who started her career touring with the first International Company of “A Chorus Line”, and has worked with THE top theatrical directors and producers including Bob Fosse, George Abbot and Hal Prince. And … as if that can be topped, she was hand picked by Sidney Poitier to be one of the leads in his dance film, “Fast Forward” …and that’s how she ended up in Los Angeles. Shaken up by the sudden death of a beloved acting teacher, Tamara was driven to leave her thriving career and embark on a spiritual journey. She was called by a vision to follow an Indian Spiritual Master, Meher Baba, and although he is no longer in human form, his teachings deeply affected her. But Tamara’s true spiritual journey began when she became the mother of two severely autistic boys, who are now 20 and 17. Tamara's story is one of courage, faith, presence and true love. https://www.facebook.com/tamara.mark1 https://www.instagram.com/tamaramark27/ https://www.facebook.com/Autism-Awakenings-Musings-of-an-AutMom-852904321439259/ https://www.autismspeaks.org/about-us Check out our Sound Mind & Body YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4EanYu-gJYsBydq-i4vz2Q Contact Sheila with what's the most Woo-Woo thing you've ever done by visiting www.soundmindbodypodcast.com Sound Mind & Body is brought to you in part by Audible.

Part 2 of Sheila’s update with a few of our past guests who she connected with at the MindBody BOLD conference in San Diego a couple weeks ago – and in this episode we talk to Sadie Nardini and Cory Sterling. As Sheila mentioned in the last episode, MindBody is one of her favorite “conscious companies” in the world! Sheila uses their software to manage her strength-training studio (www.informfitnessla.com), and for the past 3 years she has attended their BOLD Conference -- and each year it gets better. Last year we were introduced to Sadie Nardini – she was doing a talk about making $6 figures while you sleep. That sounded pretty good to us, so we went to her seminar. We had no idea who Sadie was – and we were delighted to see this Fierce Rock Chick with a Mohawk up there talking about doing her own style of Yoga to “Guns n Roses” -- we were in! Not only was she an amazing teacher, she was so inspiring to help us find our own unique voice. After her one hour of time ended in the conference room, she told everyone to meet her at the pool bar and she continued to show us her social media tricks for at least another hour, while enjoying a glass of Pinot Grigio. What’s not to love! We had the chance to meet her again early this year at a BOLD event in Los Angeles and Sheila invited her to be on the podcast. She graciously said yes, and you can hear our first interview on Episode 26. This year at BOLD we connected again and had the chance to sit down at the same pool bar and talk about what she’s been up to. We also had the chance to catch up with Cory Sterling at BOLD. You might remember him from Episode 31 – he’s the Heart Leading Lawyer who calls his company Conscious Counsel. I actually told Cory about the MindBody BOLD conference – and sure enough, he showed up! He lives in Vancouver – that is, when he’s not traveling around the world! This was our first time meeting in person, and it was such a blast! Cory is an incredibly kind and intelligent person, who also happens to be a kick-ass attorney who leads with love. We ran into each other several times during the conference, and he was often barefoot – it’s so inspiring to see someone living and enjoying the present moment so fully, while also doing his work as an amazing attorney -- and it was great to sit down with him and find out what’s new with Conscious Counsel. http://sadienardini.com/ @sadienardinioffical www.counsciouscounsel.ca @consciouscounsel Check out our Sound Mind & Body YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4EanYu-gJYsBydq-i4vz2Q Contact Sheila with what's the most Woo-Woo thing you've ever done to soundmindbodypodcast@gmail.com or visit www.soundmindbodypodcast.com Sound Mind & Body is brought to you in part by Audible.

Sheila attends the MindBody BOLD conference in San Diego and touches base with former guest, Co Founder and Evangelist of MindBody, Blake Beltram. MindBody is one of our favorite “conscious companies” in the world! Sheila uses their software to manage her strength training studio (www.informfitnessla.com). MindBody’s biggest event is the BOLD conference, where they bring together thousands of wellness and beauty companies from around the world to learn, play and inspire. Sheila and her lead trainer Ann Kirkland (Ep. 11) have attended BOLD for the past 3 years and each year it gets better, they meet amazing people, have a great time, and come back inspired to continue to do their part for the Wellness Revolution! Each year there are amazing speakers as well – the first year it was Deepak Chopra, last year Ariana Huffington and Magic Johnson, and this year – Michelle Obama! Blake Beltram kicked-off the conference this year and gave an incredibly heart-felt, emotional, and inspiring talk. Sheila had a chance to sit down with him and have a one-on-one later that day and discuss a recent “dark night of the soul” he experienced, which he calls a “nervous breakthrough”, his 12 year old daughter meeting and introducing Michelle Obama at the conference, and his latest vision – the MindBody Mindfulness Tour. www.mindbodyonline.com Instagram: @blakebeltram @mindbody Check out our Sound Mind & Body YouTube Channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4EanYu-gJYsBydq-i4vz2Q Contact Sheila with what's the most Woo-Woo thing you've ever done to soundmindbodypodcast@gmail.com or visit www.soundmindbodypodcast.com Sound Mind & Body is brought to you in part by Audible.
