  • Intuition As Inspiration With Special Guest: Mariyah Thompson
    2023/06/15
    In these complex times, with life moving at such a hurried pace, we all yearn for quick answers and simple solutions to life problems that really aren't all that simple. 'Life hacks' are more prevalent now than ever before. Feeling so overwhelmed with information coming from so many corners, it can be comforting to turn to specialists and experts who appear to have the skills to show us the way. But asking others to help us make important life decisions can actually leave us feeling more lost and confused than ever. Tune into this special episode with my very special guest, Mariyah Thompson, Biophilic Designer and Horticultural  Educator to learn how honoring intuition can be the simple solution we're searching for to regain a sense of control over our lives and reclaim our own innate power. About Mariyah:Mariyah Thompson is a Biophilic Designer, Horticultural Educator and lover of all things nature-related. She was born and raised in Southern New Jersey where she learned the importance of nurturing intuition from her beloved grandmother.  Mariyah is a graduate of Towson University (2020) and holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science with a minor in Applied Adult Disability Studies.  She credits the stillness she cultivated during the global pandemic for awakening a deep desire to "go deeper" within herself. She acknowledges her grandmother's passing - also during the pandemic - as a time in  which she answered her heart's calling to pivot from her work in healthcare to her love of all things plant and nature related. Currently, Mariyah is the Manager of Residential and Commercial Horticultural Services at B. Willow in the Remington community of Baltimore, Maryland. Mariyah states frequently, "adding botanical designs to spaces across Baltimore and encouraging people to see themselves as a part of nature is what I love most about my work. We are one.  I am so grateful to be in the position that I am, following my intuition, to do work that I truly love."  Mariyah lives in Baltimore and spends most of her days celebrating life with her fiance, practicing meditation and yoga and "doing things that bring me joy." Intuition As Inspiration And Initiation: Show Notes Intuition, a profound and often elusive phenomenon, holds the power to serve as both a wellspring of inspiration and a catalyst for initiation. Rooted in our subconscious mind, intuition can guide us toward innovative ideas, uncharted paths, and transformative breakthroughs. It whispers, urging us to explore beyond the boundaries of logic and reason, and invites us to embrace the unknown. As a potent force of insight, intuition bridges the gap between imagination and action, encouraging us to trust our instincts and embark on journeys fueled by inner wisdom.In this episode, I am joined by Mariyah Thompson, who studied Exercise Science from Towson University and is currently working at B. Willow, a bespoke plant boutique in Baltimore, to talk about the power of intuition. Mariyah shares how she managed to make a career shift into biophilic design from Exercise Science, why people get stuck on the judgment about what they should be doing, and the importance of biophilic design and nature exposure in people’s day-to-day lives in the workplace. She also talks about the benefits of celebrating small wins and what it means to have a mirror for yourself, even when there is no mirror. Tune in to learn more about this and other exciting topics!Timestamps[04:35] Mariyah Thompson’s background information[05:36] How Mariyah managed to make a career shift into plants and nature[08:05] The inner landscape that enabled Mariyah to realize that Exercise Science is not for her and made the change[17:03] Why do people get stuck on the judgment of the outside about what they should be doing?[20:26] The importance of Bioliphic design and nature exposure in people’s day-to-day lives in the workplaces[26:28] The benefits of celebrating the small wins [30:30] What it means to have a mirror for yourself, even when there is no mirror[34:30] Does Mariyah have a journal practice?[49:16] Mariyah’s trip to Mexico and how it opened her life[57:12] The secrets to overcoming fear and living a more courageous life[01:01:56] The practices that can help nurture the intuition of moving forward regardless of life challenges.Notable quotes:“The smallest shift can create the most fertile ground for growth and awareness.”“The biggest hurdle for most of us to get over is the judgment on the outside about what we should be doing.”“Everything you need is already within you.”“There is fear, but it’s deciding and trusting in yourself that you are going to do what you want to do and fulfill whatever you want to fulfill because you trust yourself.”Upcoming events:September 19 to 24, The Design the Life You Deserve Retreat that will be in Bacalar, Mexico.  Connect with me:Website: https://angelvshannon.com/Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/...

  • Getting Better With Berberine
    2023/04/25
    Welcome to Season Three of Healthy Housecalls With Angel. In this episode, we'll be diving into the topic of berberine, a natural compound that has been gaining popularity in the health and wellness community for its many potential benefits.Berberine is a plant alkaloid that has been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years to treat a variety of ailments. In more recent years, it has gained popularity as a dietary supplement due to its potential health benefits such as helping to lower blood sugar levels, improve cholesterol levels, and reduce inflammation. This episode is for anyone who is interested in natural remedies and alternative approaches to health and wellness. It's also for those who may be dealing with issues related to elevated blood sugar or cholesterol levels, or who are looking for ways to reduce their risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and  health conditions that are associated with inflammation in the body. In this episode, we'll be discussing what berberine is, how it works in the body, and the potential benefits and risks of taking it. So, whether you're a health enthusiast or just curious about natural remedies, you won't want to miss this episode. Let's get started!Overview: In recent years, berberine has gained popularity as a dietary supplement due to its many potential health benefits including: Lowering blood sugar levels: Berberine can help to regulate blood sugar levels by improving insulin sensitivity and reducing glucose production in the liver.Lowering cholesterol levels: Berberine can help to lower cholesterol levels by inhibiting the production of cholesterol in the liver and enhancing the excretion of cholesterol from the body.Modulating the gut microbiota: Berberine can help to improve digestive health by increasing the abundance of beneficial bacteria in the gut, reducing the abundance of harmful bacteria, and reducing inflammation.Modulating the gut-brain axis: Berberine can also modulate the gut-brain axis, which is the communication pathway between the gut and the brain. This can help to improve mood and reduce anxiety and depression.Reduce inflammation: Berberine has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to reduce inflammation in the gut and throughout the body. This can help to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer.Berberine And The Menopausal Woman:Berberine's action in helping to lower cholesterol levels by reducing the production of cholesterol in the liver and enhancing its excretion from the body  is important for postmenopausal women as they are at a higher risk for developing cardiovascular disease due to changes in their hormonal profile. The improvement in insulin sensitivity can help accelerate weight loss and reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes that can occur during menopause.  Berberine may help modulate the gut microbiota by increasing the abundance of beneficial bacteria in the gut, reducing the abundance of harmful bacteria, and reducing inflammation, which is important for overall digestive health and may help manage symptoms such as bloating, constipation or diarrhea that may occur during menopause. Safety and Cautions:Some research has shown that berberine may be considered safe for short-term use in persons who are not pregnant or breastfeeding, but long-term safety data is limited. It is also important to note that berberine may interact with certain medications, so it is important to talk to a healthcare provider, professional pharmacist and clinical herbalist before taking berberine as a supplement.Overall, we hope that this episode provides a helpful introduction to berberine and its potential benefits, and that it inspires you to continue exploring natural remedies and alternative approaches to health and wellness.Connect with me:Website: https://angelvshannon.com/Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/sevahealthgroup LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/angelvshannon/Seva Health: https://sevahealthgroup.com/Courses and Coaching In The Seva Circle: http://www.getfitandfunctionalforlife.comGet Exclusive Content: https://www.patreon.com/healthyhousecallswithangelVisit Fullscripts, our trusted clinical partner:  https://us.fullscript.com/welcome/sevawellcare/signup***Important Disclaimer: information presented in this podcast is for health education purposes only and should not be construed or considered to be medical, legal, or financial advice.
