We cover topics on healing, health, happiness, growing wealth and living wise in a world that often sabotages you.
Hey, everyone. We are here today at Nature Inspired Therapies. We caught Jen
Baker at Reno Startup Week. And now we get her for a
few minutes before she flies off on an adventure that she's
going on. So we have been around, and I
did get to do the red light therapy. You guys have so many cool
therapies here. But I want to know from you, like,
what inspired Nature Inspired? Sure,
Yeah. What inspired it is, my whole life I've had
different challenges, and so everyone I cared about.
Right. When you care about someone, you care about what's going on with them. And
there was a lot of answers that weren't
brought to us from, you know, talking to our doctors. Our doctors
didn't have a lot of time to sit and talk about what was happening.
We women share a lot, and when we share
our challenges and our problems,
we tend to want to find solutions. I'm a solution provider. Come to find out.
I love to dig into a good challenge if I don't really care what
kind. So for me, it was digging into people's health challenges because I
cared about them personally. It was my own health challenges that brought
me a bunch of answers. In the early 80s, I started
studying natural wellness medicines and
cures as they would, you know, and the books all said that. So Dr.
Weil and Dr. Chopra and several other doctors that I can't
even remember. But all the books that I could get my hands on for
natural healing, I did. And so I read a lot about herbs,
a lot about heat, and that's what helped me with my
chronic challenges. So herbs and heat? Yeah,
yeah. When I was eight years old, they bought me a waterbed. It was the
greatest thing they ever did because I had chronic back pain already.
I had a car crash when I was two months old, so the
pain as I was growing was insane. And so we had knee problems.
All girls, I think all boys and girls. As you grow, you have
ligament challenges. And they're like, it's okay, and they just want to give you
Tylenol or something like that. And those things just didn't work for my
body, so I had to find other ways to make myself feel better.
And that's really where it started, is as a child, I was trying to figure
out other ways to do things because my body just didn't want to. So
you were looking into these things as a child? As a child, make yourself
feel better? Yeah, yeah. And when you stick your feet in the dirt
in a hot day, like on the spring day when the sun's out and you
Dig your feet into the dirt and you go, oh. And you get those goosebumps
in your body. You start realizing there's something to that. So
honestly, that's where it started as a child. Oh, interesting. Since then,
the older I got, the more I heard from other people of challenges they were
having, and I started looking into more answers. I was like, well, if this
works, then maybe this will work for you. And so my whole life,
even though I did, you know, big business things, I ran casinos, I did
policy work and political consulting and business and speaker and
books of my own. On the private side, I've always been
in a natural wellness and gadget. Interesting. Gadgets.
Kitchen gadgets. Wellness gadgets has been my thing.
Kitchen gadgets and wellness kitchen gadgets is. Started the
gadgets kitchen. Wellness gadgets. Or they're two different things. No, I
started 25 years, 30 years ago in kitchens. I realized every
gadget that I found, I was like, oh, I could play with that in the
kitchen. I loved it. And so I would buy gadgets, and then as
gadgets came available, I call them gadgets because why not? It makes
it more fun. Right? Right. These modalities are
amazing tools, but they started out with little vibration
tools and little. I'll show you as we go through, there's a
little comb thing that you can comb through your hair, and it'll just send
all your energies off the hook. Feels amazing. Gives you
goosebumps. Oh, interesting. So these are gadgets. They're little. Yeah. I don't know.
At the store, you could buy them for 20, 30 bucks. No big deal. It
was easy. And as they grew, obviously you get some more
really amazing tools from just wellness and healing. Right. And
so I've always been into, what can I use? That's the
answer, always. As we grew, it just evolved into
more. I knew when I was done with my plan, political policy,
and that part of it, when I was, felt like I
had done enough, had enough, done enough one way or the other. How long
were you doing that before. I was gonna leave when I turned 50 to come
and do this. Okay. So that was always my. That was my probably 15
year plan. All right. And I said, I don't know how it's gonna work out.
I don't know what it'll look like, but this is what I wanted to do.
And I put it together over the last 15 years.
That's amazing. Yeah, it was kind of exciting. So.
So how. But this hasn't been open very long, right? No,
in fact, technically opened July 1st
of 2024. So, okay, so a little over a year.
I feel like I remember that because I feel like I met you guys at
some kind of expo of some sort. You were at
maybe it was at a casino here in town. We are in Reno, after all.
It was the Bridal Expo. The Bridal Expo. Am I right? I
think that's. Yeah, that seems right. That seems right. Shirley and I
have been friends for. We work together in the business
world. Right. For many years. And so she said, I want you to
come do this. And I said, we're brand new. We really don't need a lot
of leads right now. What we need is to get everything settled. And she said,
I want you to do it. So I was blessed. I got to see you
and. Yeah, yeah. Speaking some time with some really great people. So it was fun
to spend time with Shirley. And we'll do it again this year. Yeah,
we'll just keep doing it. So you're a year into it and it's
been busy. Very busy. Our soft
opening was I opened the doors to veterans and first
responders on day one. That was July 1st. That's awesome. Those were free
services the whole day. And then from then,
we did a soft opening for friends and family only from July.
Well, yeah, July through November. And November
15th is our one year anniversary. Nice. So that's
coming up, which is exciting. And so technically, in business,
we didn't have everything down until later in July, but we
opened pretty quickly. We got our business license somewhere in June. Okay.
And three weeks later, we opened the doors with equipment from all over the
world. Yeah, there's a lot of amazing equipment here. Thank you. I've
got to experience some of it for sure. I was really excited for you to.
Try the red bed. It's an easy, simple thing to get inside of.
And you walk out with a feeling of something different.
Yeah, you feel. It kind of feels like you've been at the
beach for several hours. What do you think
of that? Is that a good analogy? Yeah, that's a
good one. Yeah, I like that a lot. Okay, so of the ones
here, like, which ones are your favorites?
All of them are my favorites for different reasons. But the one I
use most is the Brain Tap. It's the one that.
Probably one of the least expensive things we have in the building.
It's a brain fitness therapy. And the older we get, the more
stressed we are, the more electromagnetic fields we have around us,
the more kids we have, the more everything
you find that you want to feel good again and Everything
in wellness starts with your brain, I believe.
It's been great for me. Yeah. And I remember coming in,
was it, I don't remember earlier this year, I think it was earlier this year
and you had me do the brain tap and it was on such a bad
day. I was having a very, very bad day. And
I remember you going like, I was 15 years older than I.
I mean biologically, just like you did a scan beforehand and then we did
it afterwards and I was still, my body was still older than
I am, but it took off 10 years. But you felt
so much different, right? Yeah, like about 10 years of.
I don't understand all that, but yeah, yeah. And the report that I
did is a heart rate variability report. All medical,
we all track heart rate variability. So it just showed your
biological age, your stress index, your inflammation in your body,
and it's all based on how the blood flows through your body. So it's not
some kind of, as they call it, woo woo wellness modality that
tricks you into believing. I have a lot of people that say, so what
is this? And I said, everything we do in here, I
track and measure it. I think that
the biggest piece for me to walk into this space and create
a disruption to the wellness industry was we have to start
showing the scientific and medical backing
of the things that we do. It's one thing to get on a
revive mat, take a nap and get up and you go, well, of course, I
always feel better when I take a nap, right? Yes.
And I felt the same way the first time I did it until they told
me there was a measurement report and then I was all in and I
tested them five times in the same weekend to make sure
I made them do it over and over and over again just to show me.
I actually found the Brain Tap a couple of years ago, long
before I did this. I was speaking at an expo, an
international expo down in la. And it was a big chaotic,
you know, it's a lot going on in a hundred thousand square foot building and
people from all over and it was noisy and chaotic and
all I cared about is I had just finished speaking, I was freezing cold,
I was wearing a dress and high heels and I'd been on my feet
for hours and I saw someone cuddled up on those warm,
yummy blankets and a black mat with. And they looked like they were
sleeping and I was like, whatever they're doing, I want that. So I popped
on it and that's honestly, that's the one I use
still today. Most, the other modalities that
I can tell you emphatically, if somebody's having a bad day and
they don't feel well and they're incredibly sluggish, they have
anything with energy issues, I love to put
them in the red bed. I love to put them in
our lymphatic massage suit. That is called an experience.
You go inside of that, you come out in Cloud nine and you're just like,
whoa, that's different. And so
I get giddy over each one. I love to see
people walk out and see an immediate result. Yeah. They feel
good and for a few days after their body's detoxing, stuff that they
couldn't get out because they couldn't get themselves into a
parasympathetic state. And everyone says, does it fix this?
Does it do this? The answer is it doesn't do anything. Neither do I.
I'm not the blame for it. Why anybody gets better. And neither is
any of this equipment in here. We help your body get into its
optimal wellness shape. And these are the words that we should be
using both in medical and in wellness. Optimal wellness. We put your
body into a position that it can turn
around and start healing itself. Yeah. We have to start
addressing that. I feel like that's when a
doctor says, well, this is the way you have to go or
you're going to die. I think that's unfair. I think
the doctor should say. And judgment. Sorry, but they should
say, as far as I know. Right.
That's a better way of saying it. Because we used to believe the world was
flat. Yeah. So I think we should be able to say.
Right. I think we should be able to say, you know, this is my expertise,
this is my lane, and once you're out of my lane, I'm going to recommend
that you go look for some other solutions. That would be good.
Yeah. Right. And I do know holistic healing is more
about. It's based on the assumption your
body will know how to heal if given the proper tools. Right. In
the proper environment to do it. So. Yeah. And
holistic is supposed to be whole human. Yeah.
And a lot of the holistic approaches are not. So
we just use a lot of words. We use holistic, we use integrated, we use
all kinds of things. That's why I use the word natural. Because what we're
trying to do, Nature Inspired, is your body
naturally healing itself by getting into a couple pieces
of equipment to get your body to shake
it up a little bit. And then your body kicks in and starts doing the
work. Yeah. That lovely lymph drainage. I love it.
Right. The lymph drainage is amazing. Our wellness,
we call it the extreme wellness throne back there because I have a
silly sense of humor. That one I love. Because when someone
comes in and they're really not well and they've got some things to get out
of their body, I know that they're
gonna see something come. I'm a show me girl. Yeah. And you'll
see things come out of the body. Don't know what it is, don't care.
But when you don't feel good, you get in there and when you come out,
you can see stuff in the water, in the bottom.
Wow. You feel like you're really making a difference. Yeah. And when you don't
see stuff in the water, it's the best day because, you know there might
still be something in there, but you don't see colors to. To show you that
stuff is still happening. So. Yeah. Well, I'm looking forward to
you showing us around a little bit. Yeah.
So this is my lymphatic massage experience. I did
a couple of things. I told you, I'm a gadget girl. So the
massage itself is absolutely phenomenal. It's very much like
we. We get in here and it doesn't look very comfortable. I promise. It's amazing.
So you get strapped in from your feet all the way up and your
arms. This even goes behind your shoulders. So it's literally from
full body. And then we do the head experience as
well. So we actually address the head of the lymphatics, which no one
seems to. That I've seen in the way that we were trained.
So this is from New Zealand, and they have a different way
of addressing things. And I really love that they geek out on
teaching this at a really deep level. And they tell us, us Americans don't know
anything about wellness compared to that. So I love learning
from them. But as you feel, this is phenomenal. Right?
Right. Yeah. Yeah. So what you're feeling, there are
frequencies that go through it. So I'm leading a study on
frequency driven lymphatic massage for both
companies to partner up together and do more.
That's the machine and what it does. So everyone says, this feels lovely,
what it's doing. If you start your body
from the beginning of time, we would get into a fight or flight
once, maybe twice in our lifetime back then, you know, saber tooth,
tiger moment. If you survived it, you might get a second shot. You want to
go back there and. Look at back then when you're able to.
Let go. And you've survived that fight or flight moment. You
can immediately walk out into the beautiful clean sun. You
can eat something healthy. You can drink some pure water. You can walk
out, because back then. We had bare feet. And you'd walk out on
the dirt and minerals and the energies and the frequencies from the earth
would then bring that amygdala override the fight or flight that
triggers cortisol, that triggers us to protect ourselves
and not feel like, I don't want to kill that fluffy animal.
Right. It takes all of that out
because you're digging your feet into those minerals and into that feeling.
And so what this is doing is very similar to that. It's like
having your worst day when you were here that day, and you walk out
of a situation where you're just raging
and you drive up to Lake Tahoe, you take your shoes off and
you dig your feet into that beautiful hot sand on a cool
day, and you let that cool water wash up on your feet.
That's what this feeling does to put your body into a sympathetic
state, parasympathetic state, and take you out of the amygdala override.
So, yeah. And that's just. You're not. You don't have to have a bad day
to come in here and do it. But it puts your body into a Just
Gumby. Right. You're just relaxed. And then when you come out of. It, you
feel great. And then for the next couple days, your body just
does its own work. It just opens up the lymphatic system and lets things
drain the way they're supposed to. Right. But this just adds a little
bit of fun to our days. And we do. When there's a group of us,
I love it. We feel like we're getting into this equipment.
Yeah. We're like, I'm going in today. That's awesome. So what company is this
from? And this one's Flowpresso. So they're.
Flowpresso is from New Zealand. Gotcha. And they
have some distributors here in town that are pretty phenomenal. They're brilliant
people. Yeah, brilliant. We're actually going in December to work with them.
Awesome. So I love that. Live. They'll be here in America playing around and
training us. Nice, nice, nice. I love it. Feels great.
And let's see. I think
we'll go to the next one. Yep. So we have
a couple of different options. We won't dig into what the equipment looks like because
it's not so super pretty in there. But you can see we have different
body sculpting modalities, abilities to help your body
grow muscle, lose fat, both
with cryo and with frequency driven. So we have not just these two, we have
several different pieces that help you lose weight, sculpt your body,
do more. Yeah. Feel better,
look better. Right. That's when. When you start feeling better, you start
automatically dropping inches. Some people are doing the GLP1s
their body, literally their skin will just hang off them.
Because what do you do with the excess fat when you lose fat that fast?
And the answer is it gets pretty yucky.
So we have ways of one, tightening up the skin, which is great.
And. Or if you don't want to do those things and put chemicals in your
body, then your next option is to do cryo sculpting. The
Pagani is the only one I know of that does permanent fat
reduction. Other than. I think there's another one. Coolsculpting. But ours is a
massage and it feels great. This coolsculpting I know can
leave some downtime. It's a couple of days downtime. Ours is zero downtime,
zero pain. We sculpt the body for sessions
and it's. We're. We're pretty careful about what we do. Yeah.
So that's very cool. Yeah. So this is a fun
room. It definitely brings us our. Yeah. And as you see
you in a single or a double just happens
to align. Right? Yeah. Yeah.
That's the only. That's the only kind of marketing we do because. Because that also
talks about your wellness. Right. When you have. When you have a double chin,
you're either staring at your cell phone too much. You should also like everyone's or
neck. Right. And. Or you have a double chin because while you're doing
that and the stress from your head, it gathers here, so you end
up sticking your lymphatic system. So your lymphatic system
is. Yeah. Stuck in that spot. Yeah. That does not surprise me. So we teach
people how to address that at home. Again, we've got all kinds of
things. We can kick start and do things at home. We can be your
advanced side and do the rest at home. Yeah. And sometimes your
body just needs the extra. Or just. Just to hear the answers.
Right. Just to hear. Hey, you might want to address that. Yeah. Yeah.
Simple things. Sometimes it's
cosmetic, sometimes it's not. Sometimes it's genetic. Yeah.
So this is our full body red light therapy.
This is another one of those that'll get me very excited and giddy.
This is. It does near infrared and far infrared.
This is actually a cool thing. Let me show you. You can adjust this
by. I'm not sure if it's gonna. This will just show you the countdown and
it'll pop on, but it's full body, head to toe. This will
infuse a 400 pound man with light therapy, which is awesome.
So it's near infrared, far infrared. So it goes all the
way through. The body, penetrate your body. Yeah, that's what he says. So there you
go. Let there be light. Yeah. Look how beautiful this is when it opens
up. So pretty. And this isn't harmful for short periods of
time. We do wear goggles and glasses normally, but it puts
on a really great picture for the camera and we
actually adjust frequencies, the, the intensity, all of that. We
have multiple fans all over the room to keep cool while you're in there. Red
light therapy is not meant to make you hot and sweaty. Red light therapy
is meant to go deep within for this machine. Yeah. And
it's great. Yeah, yeah. I just, I feel like you're super
relaxed, right? That's the best explanation. Yeah. And
then it does feel like. Yeah, I think I said like three hours at the
beach or something like that, but yeah, can't get to the beach every day and
then sometimes it's not warm. And behind you, these are from South
Africa. These are the machines that we were most
excited about getting because I asked all of the
biohack world, what's the best machines on the market
available today, period? And the answer was
these. So these are our extreme wellness throne, we call them, because no one
wants to call them a HOCUTT. Tony
Robbins is all over the Internet talking about how amazing this machine machine is. He's
in there all the time. These Hugos he takes with him. You can literally see
his personal trainer walking around with it behind him at all of his
events. Interesting, because it's an amazing immediate
result with a high powered spark gap technology
magnet. This magnet is phenomenal at removing
inflammation. We can walk over here a little bit. Yeah, yeah.
It's prettier from, I guess this side. Um, but
this is. You get inside of this machine, the Hugo is attached to
it. Your head is out. As you see, we have again, fans
all over the building. Right. And the equipment. So you get
oxygen, you get 10 different healing modalities
in a, in a 30 minute hit session. Inside of this,
you can burn up to 600 calories in a 30 minute
session depending on the, the work that we're doing.
You also open it up and you'll see. Which
is really fun. We always have our little packs together each time. If
you'll pull that side. Yep.
You'll actually be able to see.
Chromotherapy should come on. We'll see. I could just turn
it off. Possibly. So the
radio frequency waves. These different tubes blow in different.
So the ozone. We monitor them, their heart rate while
they're in there at all times. We check blood pressures. Like it's. It's
a pretty advanced piece of equipment. Yeah. Do all kinds of great stuff.
The athletes. So we talk a lot about athletic performance.
Athletes. To be able to regenerate and recover quickly so they can keep
going, break their records, do more. They use a lot of this
equipment. People that are not well. These are in
several different critical care clinics. I call it critical
care. Not. Not true critical care. But just people that are really
trying hard to get well from something that we have. Something that's serious. Yeah.
Yeah. So they're in a few locations in the country.
Not many. Yeah. So we're honored to have them excited.
That's awesome. When we get into a very unique. A unique
opportunity. Yeah. Yeah. To be able to do it.
Gives Reno a chance to do things that other states are doing. Yeah.
Yeah. I love it. I chose specifically because of the cool
logo. And the owner of the company goes around and trains
hyperbaric employees around the country at the
hospitals. So he's really smart. He says this
is a leading edge unit. You get to
sit or lay down in there. You can do anything you want. You can come
in, you can work, you can sleep, you can whatever. And
so I bought this one specifically because of the logo. We
treat a lot of veterans, first responders, so on.
Right. It's a cool looking unit. Yes. But it just
looks very official. And he says it's a better
unit than our superior. He says, than all the others that are on the
market. And I paid a substantial amount different
to make sure we had a quality unit. I love it.
We have people come in. We
support everybody in all levels. You hear me talk a lot about athletes
and just average people coming in. But we do have people who are
working on certain challenges, like cancers, Lyme mold,
parasites. Like very, very serious things that they can't get relief
from somewhere else. A lot of this equipment supports them and makes them feel
better. If not helps to extend what they're doing and
work harder. This is one of them. Some people can come in
incredibly sick after their chemotherapy or after their
pushes from lyme support. And they climb
inside of this and they come out and they're just like, I feel good. They're
like, I don't know. I think I'm gonna throw up in your machine. I'm like,
well, take a bag with you. Right? Take a bag. I'm not shy.
Because the detox happens so quickly. Is that kind of. It's because
medications they're taking because of the medication. Okay. So when they come in and
they're that sick and they're in that much pain, to put them inside of something
and watch them come out going, whoa,
that's over. It's pretty awesome. Yeah. It's heartwarming.
Yeah. And I know, like, someone that I've had on the podcast several times, Kara
Stoltenberg, who had a brain injury. She. She did buy,
I don't know what brand it was a hyperbaric chamber. So. So that she could
get in every day to help heal. When you have. It was a really
serious brain injury. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's incredibly important to
keep them in the oxygen. I work with a couple different brain
organizations. That's where I learned about the circadian rhythm. Was a top
neuroscientist in the world. He's world
renowned. Was the one that was like, follow the circadian rhythm. I'm like, what's that?
Oh, yeah. Really? Really. It's that simple. So why don't we know that
these words and learn them in school or. If I did, I didn't pay attention
in that class. Yeah. But yeah. This is amazing. For brain health, her
body health, her athletic performance. For physical
recovery. We just had a fireman. In fact, he.
He's scheduled today. So he had surgery a couple weeks
ago. He started prior to his surgery and comes every
day that he can. And he's from another interstate,
so he comes all the way here from somewhere else, hundreds of miles
away. Okay. And jumps in the hyperbaric. Because he knows what
heals. Yeah. And he's not the only one. We have hundreds of
first responders and medical practitioners coming in here.
It's not. Yeah. I love that they understand what the equipment does and they
love using it. Yeah. We had another
session on that too, about, you know, the first response responders and
having so much more PTSD inducing events. Right. Than
the average human. Well, if we put it in perspective,
and it's not saying anybody has any lesser anymore, but a first
responder is in wartime
every day. If they're in a certain city in this
country. Yeah. Right. Not everyone. Every day,
everywhere. But if we really look at what they could through on A daily
basis. It's amazing. Firefighters, for instance,
leave their families once a week. They have a breakup from their family once a
week, and then they have a reconnection. Right. But they have to literally leave
and go stay somewhere else for days. Right. If you have trust
issues, you're really in trouble. If you have family issues, really
in trouble. Right. Then on top of that, you get a fire drill
and you've got a few minutes to be dressed,
out of, out of your bed, dressed. I don't care what's going on in your
world, in your personal life, you need to be in that rig and going to
save someone's life or structure immediately. Right.
The officers are on guard all day long
everywhere. Security guards all the way to police officers.
They are on watch at all times every day.
Veterans at least got to retire from their work
time stuff that they did. But once you train your brain, you can't
unlearn what you've learned. No. You just have to learn to take the
trauma out of your body and your brain from what you learned.
That's really hard to do. And I understand it. I'm by no
means the expert at it, but I can tell you we've helped a lot of
people take the trauma of what you've seen, whether you're first
responder, a child, it doesn't matter. We all had something
that was the worst thing we've ever seen, right? Yes, yes,
we, we've all seen it. So if we can do that and maintain our
health, no matter what we see or what we go through, it's important for
humanity not just, not just us, not our lives, not our families, but
really, it's kind of our obligation to get through whatever it is we
see. We were barbaric humans from the beginning.
We're just a much softer society today. So how did they do do it
and we can't. Right, right.
How did, how did our ancestors do that? Yeah. The answer
is, I believe, getting back to nature. Well, nature was so much more
accessible. It's like nature's getting less and less accessible. Right. In this
world we're living in. Yeah. And even if it's there, no one's paying attention to
it. So. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then
of course, the revives of the brain health, which are my favorite. And then we
do some other detox stuff here. This is sort of our living room area
where I want people to come in, drop your shoes, curl up with a
favorite blanket and a pillow and really just be. And we play
frequencies through the building for Love and healing. I think it's very
important that we do that. We just teach people to get comfortable and show them
what healthy is supposed to feel like. Yeah, I love that. That warm, cozy feeling
when we're curled up next to the fireplace on a grand, cold winter. Oh, for
sure. That's the best feeling. Do we get those? Yeah. I just turned on the
heat last night, so it was the first time. There you go. Our cozy. Our
cozy, cozy area. Yeah. Can you show us the Brain
Tap? Yeah, absolutely. So, again, this is my favorite piece of it.
Revive chair. So this is a whole different piece of it, but
this is sort of the quick example of what we do
with our HRV will show
you your biological age and your brain health overall.
And then we have all of our iPads, have
over 3,000 sessions inside the app. This is the Brain Tap itself.
When you turn it on, it's fully adjustable. You see the
red and blue lights on the inside. And then back here, you'll
see that there's another area where the blue lights flash. So when you put this
on, all you do is put it on your head, lean back,
take a couple big, deep breaths, and just listen. That's all you have to do.
There's no work. Not hard. Not hard at all. And most people fall asleep and
have a beautiful nap. And others go, that was cool. I like it.
Right? It's just great. To each their own. And. And
it's hardwired because I don't really like the Bluetooth. Really big on.
Less EMFs on our bodies, but you get a warm, cozy
blanket. Want to. You want to demonstrate for us? Sure. She's
done this before. I. I have. And it's always awesome. So.
All right. All right. And
then I always look at me. Sitting in a chair. I'm so fancy. I know.
I'm going to put you back and let you relax. Okay. How's that?
Comfy? Yes. All right. Uncross the feet. I remember that.
Okay, well, for the hrv, but you can do whatever you need. And then
go ahead and put that on.
And just for fun, I'll just hit whatever's on here.
Whatever these are. Stop asking.
Go ahead and put your visor down.
I love it.
How's that? All right. Sorry, Mary, I'm gonna make you
get up now. That was fun. That was so fun. Thank you for showing us
around. That was fun. What's next? Like, what's
the next step in. In the journey here with nature inspired therapies.
The immediate future is we're expanding, almost doubling the
size of this location here. I have a couple of
locations within a 50 mile
radius that want to launch immediately as a franchise. I have
other locations across the country that want to open. And this
has to be whole and complete and perfect first and a
good stable atmosphere so that we could duplicate our process. And
our goals are to get places like this where someone can walk in
very easily. Right. We're in a retail situation. It's not exactly
a med spa. We don't even try to be a med spa. We want people
to come in, get your wellness in 30 minutes, 45
minutes at the most, and get back out the door. So we don't stress you
out. To take time away from your life, to make sure that your
wellness is in place. Yeah, I love that. Every day focusing on yourself, valuing
your health. And if you don't mind, let me show one quick
thing. We didn't talk about it, but in the
wellness world, we always think we have to take a day off to go to
the med spa. We have to go take an hour off to go get a
massage. We have to take time away from whatever we're doing. That means
you're creating a space of lack to go take care of yourself. So we
shame ourselves when we go take that time. Not everybody does, but
those of us that are really busy. I have, I don't know, 20, 30 massage
gift certificates somebody's given me along the way in the last, I don't know,
five years and they're still sitting there because I don't take the time to go
get a massage. I would always. And I do
take the time to get into these modalities because I know that
it creates a long term effect of something I'm trying to
avoid. Yeah. When you have brain damage as a child, the statistics
are against you to not have dementia, Alzheimer's, things like that.
So, you know, there's a lot of athletes with concussions. There's a lot of
stuff going on in the world. So people can in fact
come in here, It's a short period of time, it's less than a lunch break,
get what they need and go back out the door. They can stop by on
the way to work, they can stop by on the way to another doctor's appointment
and that's what they do. We have people from all over the world coming in
here. So I know this equipment is amazing. It's at least
considered some of the best in the country, if not in the world. And
I did bring stuff in from South Africa, New Zealand, Italy,
India. Wow. Korea.
I'm sure I'm forgetting somewhere else, but it gives you an idea that
I tried to create something that if I look you in the eyes and say,
I think I can help, I'm not lying.
That's the best. So when someone does that and they come in and they do
a quick hit session, they get back out and I can show them a measurement
report, they really feel like they're doing something for
themselves. So we're priding ourselves on, get in here,
do something quick, and get back outside so you can have a better day. Just
like you the day you were here. I didn't want to bring that up. But,
you know, you were like, oh. And I said, just try it. And. Yeah. And
you never know how it's gonna turn out. Yeah. Every person's different. We
are literally one. One genetic
makeup of cells that has never been created in the history
of humanity and will never be created again. So this
whole idea of one in a million is a complete joke and
makes us play small. So if we have that genetic makeup,
then we should be treating ourselves and our vehicle, the only
vehicle we've been given in this lifetime. This is it. It's all we've got.
Better than we treat our vehicle. We drive every day.
We change the oil on a regular basis because we know
it'll make the engine last longer. We put in good gas that they
recommend because we know it will increase the efficiency
and help the engine last longer. Right. We make sure that we
put wiper fluid in it or change the brakes and change the
tires. We don't do any of that for ourselves. We feel shamed
when we do that. It's important for us to start treating
this vehicle as valuable as it is. Right. Yeah.
So that's. My concept is just, this is the only one we have,
and if we wear it out too soon, it's like buying your favorite
car, forgetting to put good gas in it, forgetting
to change the oil. Don't bother putting any good antifreeze in it.
Put a brick on the pedal, put it up on stands,
and see how long that car is gonna last. Yeah. You know, that's what we're
doing to our bodies. Yeah. America runs on stress,
sadly. Yes. Yes. Yeah. Yeah.
So sorry. I wanted to. No, yeah, that's. No, it's true. It's very true. So.
And I think that's part of the reason why I wanted to do this podcast
to begin with is to. People don't know about different. That
there even are different options available to them and different things that
are very helpful. And I've had my own journey of like, not.
Not doing well at all. And I think I'm still there because, like the last.
I'm still. I'm still. I'm still not optimized
to do where I think my health needs to be. But, you know, it is.
It's a journey. For sure. We're all a work in progress. I'm by no means
the epitome of health, but I do try, Right? Yeah, I try.
And I have a little bit easier access than others. It'll just take me a
minute to see something. But we all
have work to do. Yeah. And sometimes it's just doing what you know to do
or what you have access to. And most of us don't
even do that well. And that's the thing. Even though this is a.
We have leading edge stuff, when someone comes in here,
I'll grab one of my books from the 80s and go, okay, so this is
what it says. Try it at home. You don't need to. We have a
membership. It's incredible, incredibly low to get people to come in and spend
time in here. The membership allows you to go through my library, allows you to
play with some of these things anytime you want to drop in and do it.
Which is great. Unlimited, Amazing. Yeah. And then the
advanced modalities, those are a dramatically discounted cost
if you're one of our members. Right. If. If you're dedicating to yourself, I'm going
to meet you halfway. Which is awesome. Right. If. If you say, I want
to be better, then the prices go down dramatically. Yeah. Right. If you want
to work towards this. Not everybody can afford it. So the average person can
afford to get the wellness that the 1 percenters, the billionaires, the
superstars, the Tony Robbins, the juniors, you know, all
these guys that are using this type of equipment for
professional athletes and billionaires that have been able to
use this type of stuff forever because they can afford it now. It's
available to the average person because we're just a membership. We all get
to collaborate. It's kind of a health collaborative, I guess. Health collaborative. It's
nice, super fun for me, but it just allows people to do a little bit
more. And I give them a ton of things to do at home without
me being a part of it. They don't have to pay me for everything. We'll
give you a whole list of stuff to try at home. And start thinking about
yourself again. Be proactive in your wellness. Right. And I think people in
general just Feels like they're tired of. They're not feeling
good. People are not feeling good. It almost doesn't even matter the generation anymore.
We're not feeling well. And so there's that thing of wanting
to feel better and not have to
struggle as we're doing. A lot of
times when I do the HRV report you were just talking about not feeling well.
I will do a heart rate variability on someone. This
weekend, for instance, there was a woman at the
startup, the Reno Startup Week that came out in
85% Delta. Brainwaves.
You should be on your best day of your life in an
85% delta in the middle of the night, between 10 at night and
2 in the morning for optimal brain health. She's trying to
walk around as a person trying
to start a business, sleepwalking, forcing herself
just to stay awake, let alone not being. I can't imagine how difficult that
day was for her. So, yeah, it was awesome to watch that turnaround. Yeah.
Those are the moments that gets me giddy. But it was interesting. I
went. I've never seen anyone in
85% Delta ever.
I've done a lot of those. So it was fun to. Yeah, that.
That's the piece. Right? It doesn't matter what age. And she was young. She
was young, but clearly didn't sleep well the
night before. Right. When you're in Delta in the middle of the day, you're in
trouble. Yeah. Which I have that problem. Right. Well, we all
do because we don't get solid sleep like we used to.
Follow the basic circadian rhythm. It's free
information all over the Internet. Just follow what supposed to work for
humanity. Yeah, that's true. We don't have to fight the system. Sleep from 10
to 2 is what I keep hearing for brain health. And then brain
health leads to body health.
Yes. Yeah. It all starts somewhere.
So tell everyone how they can reach you. You can reach me at.
