    E213: The power of natural light & blue light glasses to improve your sleep, mood, focus & energy with Roudy Nassif

    E213: The power of natural light & blue light glasses to improve your sleep, mood, focus & energy with Roudy Nassif

    Roudy Nassif is a renowned engineer, a health entrepreneur, martial artist, and a light expert who is on a mission to help people experience the freedom, flow, and vitality of living in rhythm with nature’s light and dark cycles and achieving better sleep and increased energy. He is the founder of Vivarays,  a company leading the Light Revolution, who is responsible for introducing the world's first circadian light-harmonizing eyewear. These glasses harmonize the bad effects of artificial light coming from screens and indoor light bulbs, helping individuals sync with nature's rhythm for a more vibrant life.
    As a child, Roudy began suffering from ADHD, headaches and eyestrain. His struggle continued as he grew older and his frustration of living in pain drove Roudy on a journey of learning about himself and nature, which transformed his health and life. That’s when he discovered Light and Circadian Biology. 
    In today's episode we discuss:
    Roudy’s journey of how he was able to eliminate his intense headaches & eyestrain,  improve his sleep & energy and experience more joy.  What happens when we’re exposed to “junk” light and the negative impact that it has on our health and wellbeing. Why we need a full spectrum of light for our body to function optimally, including our hormone health, mood, energy and more. How VivaRays lenses can improve your hormone production, energy, motivation, focus and more.  Roudy's tips and strategies to get back in balance and alignment with nature while living in the modern world. Marnie and Stephanie both use their VivaRays glasses daily and Roudy has offered our listeners a discount to purchase a pair to feel these amazing benefits.

    E211: How to heal your relationship with food, lose your excess weight and break free from food addiction with Dr. Susan Peirce Thompson

    Susan Peirce Thompson, Ph.D., is the New York Times bestselling author of Bright Line Eating, The Official Bright Line Eating Cookbook, and Rezoom. She is an Adjunct Associate Professor of Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Rochester and an expert in the psychology of eating.

    In this episode we discuss:
    Susan’s personal journey of overcoming sugar and drug addiction, which eventually inspired her to create the Bright Line Eating movement. 
    Susan’s science-backed approach to understanding and healing food addiction by looking at psychological factors. How and why rituals and affirmations play a vital role in fostering the mental well-being essential for achieving and sustaining weight loss in the long term.
    How Susan's highly successful Bright Line Eating program is unique, and why setting boundaries around your meals is critical.
    How people in Susan's program are keeping their weight off longer than most programs, including people who have taken GLP-1 class drugs.
    Susan’s latest book "On This Bright Day: A Year of Reflections for Lasting Food Freedom."   This conversation unpacks the science and psychology behind eating and addiction, and is sure to provide hope to anyone struggling with food addiction.
