📺 Watch & Subscribe on YouTube "There are dozens of ways to quantify sunlight. And it matters how we present the data because it can mislead, hide, or enlighten," says Scott Zimmerman, who joins the Quantum Biology Collective Podcast to reveal how our understanding of light's impact on health is fundamentally flawed. Zimmerman explains that by reframing how we measure sunlight—focusing on photons per second per area per energy unit—we can better grasp its crucial role in metabolic health. Zimmerman unveils groundbreaking insights into the body's quantum-level interactions with light, particularly in the infrared spectrum. He discusses how this knowledge could revolutionize our approach to lighting, potentially addressing the surge in metabolic diseases. Zimmerman also shares startling findings on how artificial lighting affects our biology, including impacts on color perception and hormone regulation. Tune in to today's episode to learn why your office lighting might be sabotaging your health, how sunlight acts as a "battery" for your body, and why the shade might be more beneficial than you think. Discover the hidden quantum world influencing your health with every photon. 5 Key Takeaways 1. Get regular exposure to full-spectrum sunlight, especially during daytime hours. This provides the broadband light our biology needs for optimal functioning. 2. When indoors, use lighting that mimics natural sunlight's spectrum, including infrared wavelengths. Consider replacing LED bulbs with full-spectrum alternatives. 3. Limit exposure to narrow-spectrum artificial light, particularly at night. This includes reducing screen time before bed and blocking out streetlights in sleeping areas. 4. Spend time outdoors in natural shade when possible. Shade provides beneficial infrared light without excessive UV exposure. 5. For children, prioritize outdoor time and full-spectrum lighting even more, as their developing bodies are especially sensitive to light exposure. Memorable Quotes 1. "We need to reframe the way we think about light from just something we need to see to an essential life source, food source for our body, just in a different form." 2. "There is a huge difference, even the 850nm helped a little bit on some of the color contrast, but it was really the incandescent that saw the big change. I would argue if he could actually do a controlled experiment with sunlight, you would see improvement even further." 3. "We're now moving from 'go do something and a day or two later, test it' to a timescale of minutes. Once you start doing that, you see all these different processes responding. The body can't wait four hours to respond to a major event or even a small event like a burn."

Make choices aligned with your values, even if they go against societal norms. Focus on what feels right for you and your family rather than external expectations. Memorable Quotes "We've always been the type of person looking for more, continuing to see what's behind the curtain. There are other aspects to the story that aren't revealed front and center. This has shaped an incredible, unique journey throughout our lives." - Jaydee Azavari"Quantum biology provides a framework to ground a lot of these concepts. There's been a large mystical component to my worldview shaped by music, vibration, spirituality, shamanic explorations, and altered states of consciousness. It links back to ancient wisdom but articulates it in a new language." - Jay Azavari"We want to promote the idea that it's okay to make different choices. What's really under that? What are you looking to achieve and why are you making your choices? How are they aligned with you or not? No one can know more about a woman's birth than her. Applying that to other areas - I can't really grasp the totality of someone else's family dynamics. I can share my perspective and be witness to them, hopefully in a non-judgmental way." - Jaydee AzavariConnect with Jay & Jaydee Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rising_sovereign_podcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jaydee_azavari/ Rising Sovereign Podcast:

Tune in to today's episode to learn more about Martin's innovative techniques for trauma resolution, the power of the body's innate wisdom, and how quantum biology principles are revolutionizing her practice. 5 Key Takeaways 1. Practice listening to the intonation and cadence in people's voices, not just their words. This can reveal hidden emotions and provide deeper insights into what someone is really feeling or experiencing. 2. When triggered emotionally, try counting backwards from 10 while slowing your breathing. This helps regulate your energy and prevents absorbing others' intense emotions. 3. Use hypnosis or similar techniques to open the "doorway" between your conscious and subconscious mind. This allows processing of stored traumas without reliving the pain. 4. Incorporate circadian rhythm optimization practices like morning sunlight exposure, blue light blocking, and grounding. This helps anchor trauma healing in the physical body. 5. Focus on educating yourself about your own stress patterns and responses. Approach personal growth as a process of self-discovery rather than fixing something "wrong." Memorable Quotes "Hypnosis allows the body to do what it needs to do, but it won't always be logical. As a therapist, you've got to hang on and go for a ride. It's not my direction that guides it, it's the body's direction. The body knows the bottom line.""When you clear trauma out, which is what quantum seems to do, everything I've done comes into greater play. Physically, clients get clearer on their cells because the sunlight helps so much.""There hasn't been one client I've given this information to that hasn't benefited to some degree. To me, it's sold. It's the way to go. Plus, it's away from the medical, which we could talk for hours on."Connect with Terra Quantum Biology Collective: https://quantum-biology-collective.mn.co/members/30613258 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/note2terra/ QBC Resources To receive our Podcast Guide, where we break episodes down by category & to receive updates from us, subscribe to our email list here: https://qbcpod.com You can join the FREE QBC online community here: https://qbcpod.com/freecommunity Instagram:

She unveils the power of simple practices like daydreaming and reading, which can shift our brains into regenerative theta waves, providing much-needed respite from our high-speed, beta-wave-dominated lives. Tune in to today's episode to discover how you can harness the Connection Code to reclaim your inner wisdom, navigate life's challenges with grace, and cultivate a state of flow that allows you to accomplish more while feeling less stressed and more fulfilled. 5 Key Takeaways 1. Start with one small step: Choose a single, manageable practice to incorporate into your daily routine, like spending two minutes in a "sit spot" each morning without looking at your phone. Consistency with one small change can lead to significant improvements over time. 2. Create a "bridge" to calmness: Use tools like reading a book, listening to binaural beats, or staring at nature to help transition your brain into a more relaxed state, especially when feeling overwhelmed or scattered. 3. Microdose connection throughout your day: Look for brief moments to reconnect with yourself, even if it's just for 30 seconds between tasks. This could be as simple as taking a few deep breaths or briefly gazing out a window. 4. Reframe self-care as internal connection: Instead of viewing self-care as another item on your to-do list, focus on quick ways to check in with yourself and honor what you truly need in the moment. 5. Incorporate playfulness: Find ways to bring joy and fun into your daily activities, whether it's singing in the car with your kids or revisiting a childhood hobby. Play can be a powerful tool for stress relief and reconnecting with your authentic self. Memorable Quotes "Self care isn't this escape out of us. It doesn't have to be this one hour routine or ritual. Self care is connection. And when we can connect back into like an internal anchor, when instead of escaping from ourselves, we can escape home to ourselves in the most chaotic moments, it changes everything.""All these tools that we're all out here talking about, whether it's red light instead of blue light, or grounding in nature or watching the sun, all of these tools do is get you back to your natural state. You are the medicine. It's you. It's not these tools. They are your crutch when you have forgotten.""Play is the portal to our calling. When we get back to play, our life figures itself out in this beautiful way because we're getting back to us and we are here as human beings. And when we can get back to our beingness, not only will all the do's get taken care of, but you have no idea what you're capable of."Connect with Melissa Website: www.DrMelissaSonners.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoctorsSonners/ Instagram:
