The Brian Keane Podcast

Today's podcast is sponsored by my BKF Online Program: https://briankeanefitness.com/bkf-online Russell is an MD and Anxiety/Neuroscience Expert. As a physician, somatic intuitive, certified yoga instructor, meditation teacher, and a professional stand-up comedian who struggled with crippling anxiety for decades and has finally healed, he is here to personally guide people through non-traditional treatments for anxiety. Using a combination of neuroscience, somatic work and psychedelics, he's uncovered a brand-new way of approaching and healing anxiety in himself and his patients. Instead of your anxiety completely controlling you, he will show you how to completely control your anxiety. He is also the author of the book Anxiety Rx A New Prescription for Anxiety Relief from the Doctor Who Created It. Here are some of the things we talked about in today's podcast: Anxiety is deeply rooted in the body and requires a somatic approach for effective treatment. The alarm anxiety cycle explains the connection between trauma, body sensations, and anxious thoughts. Psychedelics and alternative therapies offer potential solutions for anxiety relief, but somatic therapy is a crucial foundation for healing. Understanding the body-mind disconnect and addressing childhood trauma are essential for managing anxiety. The resistance to body-based therapy and the role of addictions in avoiding self-love are important considerations in anxiety treatment. Psychedelics can be a potential treatment for anxiety, but the timing and approach are crucial. Anxiety creates a sense of control, and psychedelics take away that sense of control, making it challenging for individuals with anxiety. Uncertainty is the foundation of healing, and embracing uncertainty is essential for overcoming anxiety.

David is one of the world's foremost experts on grief and loss. His experience with thousands of people on the edge of life and death has taught him the secrets to living a happy and fulfilled life, even afterlife's tragedies. He is the author of six books, including his most recent bestselling book, Finding Meaning: The Sixth Stage of Grief. He co authored two books with Elisabeth Kubler Ross, including On Grief and Grieving updated her 5 stages for grief. His first book, The Needs of The Dying received praise from Saint (Mother) Teresa. David's personal experience as a child witnessing a mass shooting while his mother was dying in a hospital helped him begin his journey. For most of his life, David has taught physicians, nurses, counselors, police, and first responders about the end of life, trauma, and grief. He facilitates talks, workshops and retreats for those experiencing grief. However, despite his vast knowledge on grief, his life was turned upside down by the sudden death of his twenty-one-year-old son. It inspired him to write his newest book, Finding Meaning. He is someone whose work has had a profound impact on my life in recent months and the world is truly a better place because of him being here. He is also the founder of www.grief.com which has over five million visits yearly from 167 countries. Here are some of things we talked about in today's podcast: The worst loss is the one you're going through; comparing losses only harms yourself. Heartbreak is a form of grief, and all endings are a type of death. The stages of grief are not a linear process; everyone experiences them differently. Changing the story we tell ourselves about grief can help in the healing process. Grief must be witnessed by others; isolation only prolongs the healing journey. Our true essence is love, and all other voices are our old wounds. Allow yourself to walk through the pain and face it, as running from it will only prolong the healing process. Grief is messy and non-linear; it's important to allow the messiness and be with where you are. Be with your grief but don't let it become your identity; find healing by not letting past events control your decisions and actions. Finding meaning in grief and loss is about who we become and how we show up in the world.

Orla O' Flaherty is a herbalist, naturopath, and nutritionist who specialises in female health. She is also one of my closest friends so this is more of a fly on the wall conversation that goes in a lot of different directions. I'll add for men (or women who aren't interested in the topic) – the first 12 minutes is about period pain, endometritis and hormone health so if you want to skip straight into the meatier topics, feel free to.. Trigger warning: we talk about some uncomfortable topics that may be triggering for some people. Period pain and emotional links Endometritis and working out Relationships and dating apps in 2024 Moving through difficult relationships and self-abandonment Stepping into your healed feminine or healed masculine Dating apps and what NOT to do How to spot guys who just want sex Sensuality vs sex Father, mother and parental wounds Sexual kinks and owning your sexuality The Madonna/whore complex, the sacred prostitute and integrating parts of it as woman in the modern age Carl Jung and the shadow side Removing blocks to become more sexual or sensual as a woman And much more.
