Society needs an elder woman to bring love and compassion back." – Dr. Mindy Pelz "We have to start looking at everything in our environment with this toxic lens in mind because we're now living in this toxic culture. I don't think a test is going to help you. I can just tell you we're all toxic. So, it's just a matter of how big your toxic load is and can you start to bring it down." – Dr. Mindy Pelz "I always speak affirmations when I gather my community together. I'm always trying to pour positive thinking in because when you are in that fasted state, you have the ability to reprogram the belief system and the thoughts that have been living inside your cells as you get rid of the cells that had the negative thoughts." – Dr. Mindy Pelz Where to Find Our Guest Website: https://drmindypelz.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.mindypelz/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drmindypelz LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-mindy-pelz/ Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/drmindypelz/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DrMindyPelz Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6j6ML4pYocMLahMODUtYt5 To stay connected and to learn more about Vishen and Mindvalley, click on the links below:  Website: https://www.mindvalley.com/about YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/vishenlakhiani Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mindvalley/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vishen/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mindvalley Subscribe to 'Mindvalley Membership' to discover 65+ transformational Mindvalley programs – at a surprisingly low annual fee here 👉 https://go.mindvalley.com/NOW  Learn more about your ad choices.
