Reverse T3: One of the Many Pieces in the Thyroid Puzzle (Podcast #11)

Jennifer Schmid

There is so much that doctors aren’t taught in med school, or that nurses and physician assistants don’t get in their schooling. One of the biggest gaps is in what they learn about hormones and the endocrine system. Here’s a quick video on Reverse T3, one of the many missing and misunderstood pieces to the thyroid health puzzle.

Getting Vaxxed Shouldn't Mean Getting Burned

Jennifer Schmid

Last year I wrote a blog post called “Why I’m not afraid of measles.” It went viral (no pun intended) and continues to be my most popular blog ever, with over 50,000 hits. It also attracted the ire of pharmaceutical trolls and uneducated people alike who felt it was their duty to call me every nasty name in the book. I even got a death threat, which made me more angry than afraid. 

Since then I haven’t said much publicly about vaccination. Instead, I’ve been working behind the scenes to teach people about their international right to informed consent, to advocate for parents and children, and to help my clients discover the meaning of true health. 

Last week, however, I was moved and inspired by Robert DeNiro’s incredible display of courage when he appeared on the Today show in support of the movie Vaxxed, which had been pulled from his Tribeca Movie Festival after other filmmakers supposedly complained about its single scheduled showing. Vaxxed is a documentary focusing on how a CDC whistleblower came forward with proof that the CDC had destroyed information linking the MMR vaccine to increased rates of autism by as much as 300%, especially in African-American boys.

I suspect that there is a lot more to the movie being pulled, beyond a few artist complaints, because of how much could be lost if this information goes mainstream and gains traction. We’re talking billions of dollars and the reputations of hundreds of federal, state, and county officials who will have to answer to millions of parents and children.

In honor of Mr. DeNiro’s bravery, I’ll be coming out with an updated version of my measles blog in the next couple of weeks. So much has happened since then, including the passage of SB 277 here in California, despite public protests. Fear is so powerful.

Rather than shutting down people who question our national reliance on vaccination as our sole disease prevention strategy, we need to keep the conversations going. We need to keep asking the hard questions.

The heath of our nation could be at stake.

You can see the video of DeNiro on the Today show here. Fast forward to minute 2:20, when a father’s love and passion break free on national mainstream television. I could have weptfor him. 

http://www.today.com/video/robert-de-niro-on-anti-vaccine-film-controversy-let-s-find-out-the-truth-665031235642

And yes, he was absolutely excoriated in media and social media afterwards, simply because he thinks parents have a right to know the truth. 

Because everyone has a right to know the truth. 

You can watch the trailer for Vaxxed here. http://vaxxedthemovie.com/ Local screenings are being arranged throughout the country.

Stay tuned, my friends. I’m here to be your advocate, to fight for you, and make sure that we get some answers to those hard questions.

Podcast #10: Tulasi Adeva: Connecting Body, Soul, and Spirit

Jennifer Schmid

This week's podcast is with the very juicy Tulasi Adeva. 

From the moment I met her and felt her beautiful, grounded presence, I knew I had to have her on my podcast. 

Her work as an embodiment coach is so valuable, not just for those of us going through transformation -- like caterpillars metamorphosing into colorful butterflies -- but for all of us who want to make sure we connect body, soul, and spirit.

Podcast #9: Staying healthy for the winter

Jennifer Schmid

It can be so difficult to stay healthy over the holidays and throughout the winter. Cold and dark days, lots of parties, lack of sleep, too many sweets and cookies, adulterated egg nog and wines… It’s easy to get trapped in the pitfalls and stressors of the season and feel burned out by New Years.

 

Join me as I give you some tips about staying healthy and energetic all year round. 

We’ll also discuss supplements and nutrients that you can use to strengthen your immune system and energy levels. Not all supplements are created equally, and it’s important to choose high quality over low price.

And listen in for a special December promotion!

Unrequited love, burning poetry, and healing magic

Jennifer Schmid

 There is no podcast this week. In honor of last week’s new moon in Libra, I have been releasing old wounds that hold me back in my business and my relationships and prevent me from realizing my potential as a woman, a mother, and a healer.

As part of the healing process and at the suggestion of a friend and colleague who is a psychotherapist for the gifted, I burned a stack of about 20 poems that I had written in high school. Most of them were about unrequited love (sigh…), being the rejected ugly duckling, and how dreams couldn’t possibly come true. While each poem burned, I said thank you and good-bye to the words and their significance. I let go of the angst, the pain, the shame, and the fear. I made room for beauty, love, and gratitude. Then after I burned the poems, I realized there was much more within.

Holistic Abundance

Jennifer Schmid

“Abundance” has become a buzz word in the last several years. A lot of people equate wealth and abundance with money and material goods. We all know that material wealth is only a single facet of abundance. Yet in our quest to achieve that wealth and abundance, we often sacrifice other areas of our lives — our physical health or personal relationships, for example. You have to be willing to invest in yourself to create abundance.

Simplicity + Desperation + Creativity = Power Lunch

Jennifer Schmid

What do you do when it’s time for lunch, you desperately need to go grocery shopping (but don’t want to stop the work momentum), and all you have left in the fridge is a half can of coconut milk and a bag of kale? Plus, you only get to borrow your ex-husband’s Vitamix for one more day????

You make a coco-choco-chia-kale smoothie, of course.
