Today you’ll meet your teacher, get a closer look at what’s making us so sick as a society, and start to understand the dangers of “bad energy” and what you can do to start to take your health into your own hands. This is foundational information to empower you to cultivate good energy for vibrant health and vitality. 

Today we’ll tackle the biggest question we all want to know the answer to – what the heck should I eat if I want to have a healthy metabolism? What diet is best? Introducing: Dr. Casey Means’ eating plan. Good news: it’s simple! You’ll learn the unholy trinity of ingredients to cut from your diet that, by doing so, can completely change your health and ensure you’re making room for more foods that support healthy metabolism. 

Do you want to develop metabolic flexibility, get rid of cravings, and alleviate symptoms like irritability and fatigue? Dr. Casey covers all this in today’s lessons, as well as the three most important things to consider when it comes to getting quality sleep each night. 

We know that too much stress on the body all the time is bad, but controlled increases in specific stressors can cause adaptations that lower our chronic levels of oxidative stress and inflammation. Today Dr. Casey covers cold and heat therapy for healthy metabolism and exercise best practices.

Dr. Casey starts today off by sharing her suggestions to safeguard yourself against environmental toxins, which have been shown to make us sick. But stress can sicken us, too, as well as any unprocessed trauma. We can’t necessarily avoid hardship and challenges in life–but we can certainly understand how to support ourselves through mindful modalities that help us stay calm, centered, and healthy. 

The real talk here is that while technology provides us with empowering information, it’s really a big form of accountability. We are entering the era of bio-observability: more readily available blood tests and real-time sensors filtered through AI analysis give us each a highly personalized understanding of our own bodies and their unique needs. 

Before you can take an honest stock of habits you’d like to improve in order to support a healthy metabolism, it’s important to pause and think through your WHY for wanting to be healthy in the first place – and today Dr. Casey guides you on how to really connect everything you’ve learned in this course with your one wild and precious life. 

Your greatest health potential starts when you believe that health is possible and you have a sense of awe, wonder, and appreciation for the miracle of your body. Every cell in the body hears every thought you have, through hormones, nerve impulses, and even through the microbiome. When you get yourself in the mindset of truly believing that your body has the capacity to be as healthy as it can possibly be, true possibility emerges.
