A Healthy Curiosity

You know that health and happiness aren’t things you can outsource. You’ve also got a full plate, you're a giver, and filtering out the wellness noise can be tough. A Healthy Curiosity is here to support you. While not strictly an acupuncture / Chinese Medicine podcast, it's not "not" one either. Host Brodie Welch, L.Ac. is an expert in Chinese Medicine and acupuncture, a holistic health strategist, as well as a teacher and practitioner of qi gong, meditation, yoga, lifestyle and diet counseling who tries to walk her talk about health and mindfulness as a recovering Type-A, parent, and business owner. Exploring strategies for holistic health, happiness, and personal evolution: what it takes to be well in a busy world. Blending the wisdom of Chinese Medicine, functional medicine, Ayurveda, neuroscience and psychology, you'll get practical tips you can use right away. You'll find interviews with fellow experts in Chinese Medicine and natural health care about the conditions we treat and strategies we use clinically; simple self-care tips to help you feel calm, centered, and energized; and personal chats where we explore what gets in the way of our best intentions: perfectionism, big goals, habits and routines, chronic pain, overwork and overwhelm, boundaries, limiting beliefs — and what it takes to overcome such obstacles mindfully.

Dolphins and lions and bears, oh my!

And don’t forget the wolves. In Episode 47 of A Healthy Curiosity, host Brodie Welch, L.Ac. talks with Dr. Michael Breus, author and Clinical Psychologist, about what we can do to get good sleep. The USA is totally yang-addicted: we prioritize action and doing and achieving over rest, relaxation and recuperation, but at what cost? Dr. Breus shares his top five tips for getting good sleep, plus some warnings about what could happen if you’re deprioritizing rest in your life.

 

In this episode, we explore:

 

  • What is good sleep?
  • Sleepy driving vs. drunk driving
  • What is a chronotype?
  • Does our screen time affect the quality of our sleep?
  • Sleep myths
