Description
My guest today is Emily Fletcher, founder of Ziva Meditation and author of the best-selling book Stress Less. Emily really caught my attention when we were chatting at an event about meditation. Meditating has never been the easiest thing for me, but something she said that day stuck with me.
She said we meditate not to get good at meditation, but to get good at life. And that’s when I started actually wanting to learn to clear my mind and sit and do “nothing” for a while!
Emily teaches leaders at Apple, Google, and Harvard Business School how to meditate… the question is, can she teach this Type-A mom?

25: Autoimmunity, GMOs & Food as Medicine: This episode is with one of my favorite people and researchers… Dr. Terry Wahls of The Wahls Protocol is not only a brilliant doctor and researcher, but she reversed her progressive MS through food and lifestyle changes and went from using a tilt recline wheelchair to walking, biking and running. To say she is an inspiration is an understatement and her work is equally inspiring as she works to bring knowledge of the role of diet in cellular health to mainstream medicine. She has a clinic where she helps patients with a variety of conditions to find their own health answers. In this podcast episode, we cover: How Dr. Terry reversed her MS Her protocol for reversing chronic disease, autoimmune disease and more The real problem with GMOs (it isn’t what you think) How cholesterol works and why low cholesterol could actually increase your risk of death and disease The role of the microbiome for health The best ways to support our children for lif by The Wellness Mama Podcast
