I’m super excited about today’s guest, Dr. Victoria Maizes. She is Executive Director of the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine and a Professor of Medicine, Family Medicine and Public Health at the University of Arizona. She’s Internationally recognized as a leader in integrative medicine and her book, which we discuss today, is called Heal Faster: Unlock Your Body's Rapid Recovery Reflex. Today she shares the many science backed strategies that help us accelerate recovery from illness or injury by tapping into our body’s innate healing intelligence. Integrative medicine combines the best of conventional healthcare with evidence-based approaches to sleep, nutrition, lifestyle, stress management and complementary therapies. And, as we hear often, she shares the importance of relationships as powerful drivers of recovery and longevity.  Integrative medicine focuses on treating the whole person, not just isolated symptoms. It’s a refreshing conversation and there is quite a bit of practical advice and information here.

Ever wonder What actually helps you sleep better, and what’s making your sleep worse without you realizing it?In this episode, renowned sleep specialist and author of the book Sleep Drink Breathe, The Domino of Wellness, Dr. Michael Breus, also known as The Sleep Doctor, talks about the science of sleep and the habits that most directly influence how rested, focused and healthy we feel. He explains how insomnia gets diagnosed, why so many people are overprescribed sleep medication, and how cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia can help people rebuild healthy sleep patterns.He also shares his work on chronotypes— and tells us how we can tell if we’re a lion, bear, wolf or dolphin— I’m a lion…many of us are. He discusses how our natural body clock influences the best times to sleep, work, exercise, drink caffeine, have alcohol, and even connect intimately. (you can take the quiz to find out your chronotype at his website sleepdoctor.com). He also covers melatonin myths, the effects of caffeine and wine on sleep quality, the role of hydration and breathwork, AND how meditation tools like Muse can support relaxation and sleep. This episode is packed with practical, surprising, and highly actionable insights for anyone who wants to improve sleep, boost energy, and better understand their body’s natural rhythms.Resource: sleepdoctor.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@TheSleepDoctorhttps://sleepdoctor.com/untanglehttps://www.youtube.com/@TheSleepDoctorhttps://www.instagram.com/thesleepdoctor/?hl=enhttps://sleepdoctor.com/pages/chronotypes/chronotype-quizA big thank you to our sponsors, Quince, Born Shoes, Strawberry.me.
