WEBVTT
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:24.640
You had a pretty interesting journey into how you got into becoming an acropath, correct?
00:00:24.879 --> 00:00:25.519
Yeah, yeah.
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:26.879
You were in TV.
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:28.800
I was in the television business.
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:29.120
Yeah.
00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:34.159
I had my own talk shows and I was an anchor and did that, but I was always interested in science.
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:39.439
And then long story short, um, family having some things, and I said, there's got to be a better way.
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:41.200
I was always interested in surgery.
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:46.719
I said, if I was gonna do an allopathic route, it would be surgery that makes sense when it's needed, it's needed, right?
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:51.200
Um otherwise the chronic degenerative were failing, it's a miserable failure.
00:00:51.280 --> 00:01:00.240
But when I knew there was a license to do both, to be able to prescribe and look and do minor surgeries and these things, I said, okay, this is where I want to want to sit.
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:07.840
So and then I knew from day one though that I always wanted to get back to the public to be able to say, let me put this in terms you can hear.
00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:12.000
Isn't that opposite like allopathic and surgery?
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:18.879
I know there's some um I don't know, but naturopathic surgery you're talking about.
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:20.239
Well it's it's a bridge, yeah.
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:24.480
So it it's a bridge of it's good science and good medicine is good medicine.
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:30.079
I don't care what type of physician you are, how you were trained, good medicine's good medicine, a good science.
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.280
There's a time and a place for surgery, there's time and a place for chemo.
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:36.239
You're thinking differently.
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:39.760
You're thinking holistic versus allopathic.
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.799
So naturopathic isn't exactly holistic.
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:47.280
So let's describe, I think there's always this semantics that we all struggle with, right?
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:52.560
Holistic, people think of that as that homeopathy, and people say, whatever that is, right?
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:54.000
It's a whole system in itself.
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:57.200
Holistic means you're looking at the whole person, the whole body, everything.
00:01:57.280 --> 00:02:01.439
You're not just a specialist looking at one section, you're looking at all of it.
00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:08.879
But naturopathic medical doctors, like in Arizona where I'm licensed, we're licensed in both systems of medicine.
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:20.719
So we're trained to do minor surgery, we can prescribe medicine, so we're trained to think allopathically or conventional medicine, look at the science, look at this, but we're also trained in guess what's over here?
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:25.039
Clinical nutrition, botanical medicines, uh Chinese medicine.
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:32.080
We know we're licensed in these things and know this side so that we get to say, okay, let's look at the whole picture.
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:33.280
It's not either or.
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:33.680
Yeah.
00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:35.599
Yeah, it definitely isn't either or.
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:36.159
Yeah.
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:37.759
You have to combine them.
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:41.199
But we lean more when we can toward natural.
00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:44.879
First, let's see if we can do something with diet and lifestyle as we were talking.
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:46.639
How much can you get there?
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:48.719
Uh but I like to cut.
00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:49.199
Yeah.
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:53.039
Well, I did you I was known I was known as the needle queen.
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:56.240
I was doing prolo and platelet before anybody was talking about it, right?
00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:00.560
So I like the the procedures as well, but I don't do that anymore.
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:02.319
I'm just working with my oncology patients.
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:05.039
Uh so you don't do the injections there?
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:06.000
I don't anymore.
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:06.479
I taught it.
00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:07.280
We did it for years.
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:10.479
There's a group of us that taught this around the United States, and we taught enough of them.
00:03:10.639 --> 00:03:11.840
Those people know how to do it now.
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:12.080
Yeah.
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:13.360
Like, go go do it.
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:15.199
Um, I'm more education now.
00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:15.680
Okay.
00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:16.159
All right, cool.
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:22.000
Especially with oncology, with the metabolic therapies, hyperbaric keto, the repurposed drugs.
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:22.639
Yeah.
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:36.479
So one of my questions was like, if you were to run a wellness center, what are your top, like either you can call them biohacking or what what things should you have in a wellness clinic?
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:39.680
Yeah, if you look, everybody's got the same stuff going now, right?
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:44.000
Everybody's doing the same IVs, same things that we as nature paths have been doing a long time.
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:47.599
But but it's it's great and trying to keep up with the latest and greatest.
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:58.560
My issue is is that I think that if you're going to be on that gray area or something that's not quite there, become a research center or at least do be doing research on what you're doing.
00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:01.280
So you're collecting the data and you know you're keeping people safe.
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:02.400
So that's my thing.
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:04.639
I had a group, um, you guys probably know Dr.
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:06.319
Paul Nassif from Botch.
00:04:06.719 --> 00:04:07.599
Paul's a good friend.
00:04:07.680 --> 00:04:07.759
Yeah.
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:15.919
Ian um the chair of Cedar Sinai Cardiology uh came to me and they said, this has been a few years ago, and they said we need to do a longevity clinic.
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:21.839
And I said, Well, first of all, let's call it mitoclinics, and I trademarked that because we're addressing the mitochondria.
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:24.480
So anything that addresses mitochondria.
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:24.720
Yeah.
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:27.519
So that's your diet, your lifestyle, certain supplements.
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:29.360
Yeah, those are basics to me.
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:29.519
Yeah.
00:04:29.680 --> 00:04:33.120
And then you got to address the stress, which I know nothing better than music.
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:33.360
Yeah.
00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:35.360
You got to talk to Barry about that in a minute.
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:43.839
To get people into a brain and heart entrainment where we can get that stress under control because some of the most stressed people I know are the buyer hackers.
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:44.319
Oh, yeah.
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:45.680
I had one in my office today.
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:46.560
You guys would love it.
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:48.800
Fit guy, I mean, on it, on it.
00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:50.160
Worries about answers.
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:50.800
Oh yeah.
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:52.319
More is better than it's a good thing.
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:53.360
How to do better.
00:04:53.920 --> 00:05:05.360
But like, yeah, but but it's yeah, like I when I first started getting into it, and like, you know, you you read the different books, and I'm like, this just seems like too much.
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:08.000
And then like it was too much.
00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:13.040
And you're like, all right, how like as a surgeon, I don't have time to do like any of that.
00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:16.160
It's a different way for different people to enter that.
00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:17.439
Definitely state.
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:21.279
I'm like, I'd rather sleep than do a three-hour morning routine.
00:05:21.600 --> 00:05:24.480
And you know, sleep's probably more restorative and better anyway.
00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:24.800
Yeah.
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:25.439
So yeah.
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:30.879
And I was gonna say music, you know, it's never thought of as a biohack, but it's one of the oldest biohacks that we have.
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:31.199
Yes.
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:36.560
If you go back to Chinese medicine, even in the symbol of Chinese medicine, the symbol of music is within that.
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:37.040
Yeah.
00:05:37.360 --> 00:05:40.079
Unless it's nickel back, then it's the opposite.
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:42.959
Well, if it brings joy, that's that's healing too.
00:05:43.439 --> 00:05:51.680
We we we did um I actually did the did a sound session with my wife with the sound bowls.
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:52.560
Yeah, yeah.
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.240
One of the resorts here last weekend.
00:05:56.879 --> 00:06:02.879
And and she was like, okay, if you don't want it to be too intense, have your head this way.
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:07.199
I was like, oh no, I want my face right next to the bowls.
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:12.240
It got so loud, and it was it too much.
00:06:12.879 --> 00:06:14.399
It's not too much.
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:17.120
For me, this is like exactly what I want.
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:22.800
Uh I was like, last time I did it, I fell into a trance, literally.
00:06:23.120 --> 00:06:27.759
I fell into a trance, fell asleep, and like fell over.
00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:34.319
And I was like, I I I want everything I felt that last time.
00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:41.040
My wife's like complete office, like, I want to be propped up, and it would be nice to hear that.
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:52.240
And it was still too loud for her with the bulls, everybody's but I was just like, my get me into deeper trance, deeper trance listening.
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:54.800
You probably like staying in front of the sub offers at the club, too.
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:56.000
Yeah, yeah.
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:58.240
Kind of, kinda, kinda.
00:06:58.319 --> 00:07:00.959
It matters like how uh how it makes you feel, right?
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:01.360
Exactly.
00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:09.680
And some people want to feel it more than and I think that's uh something that's not normally talked about, like within within non-invasive type treatments, right?
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:12.720
And biohacking within music and frequency and vibration.
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:22.560
It's the same thing, like we're not talking about dosage, uh, each person is individual, and the dosage matters for it to be take you to the place you want to go.
00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:24.560
You want to move into parasympathetic.
00:07:24.720 --> 00:07:29.040
You're gonna have a different way that you receive the music than your wife does.
00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:31.839
So her dosage is gonna be different than yours.
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:34.160
And but we don't talk about dosage and music.
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:36.399
So the vibration.
00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:37.040
There you go.
00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:47.680
So there is different that this different sensory, um, like whether it's like visual or auditory or sensory.
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:53.519
Um, it and I was just like, okay, this just she wouldn't like this.
00:07:53.839 --> 00:08:02.000
I want this to be as an intense thing, like let me lay it my head next to your sound bowl.
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:07.439
And it it's not really that loud if you have your eyes open, if you close your eyes.
00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:09.920
Oh my god, that's the loudest thing.
00:08:10.319 --> 00:08:12.480
Well, yeah, because your your brain waves are slower.
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.600
As soon as you slow your eyes, you're moving into an alpha state.
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:21.439
So you're you're hearing things differently and receiving it in your body differently as well.
00:08:21.519 --> 00:08:23.279
And you're producing different hormones.
00:08:23.439 --> 00:08:28.000
You know, if she's stressed out, right, she's gonna be producing cortisol.
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:34.480
If you're relaxed, you're gonna be moving into producing less of that and possibly producing dopamine.
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:38.639
So the emotional aspects have an effect on your physical pharmacy.
00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:43.600
And even going back to nickelback, you know, when you're talking about talking about nickelback.
00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:45.039
Here's something interesting, though.
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:55.440
So they did studies of people in psychosis, yeah, right, and they couldn't listen to relaxing music and slow their brain waves down.
00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:56.399
It's too far apart.
00:08:56.720 --> 00:08:57.279
Too far apart.
00:08:57.360 --> 00:09:03.360
They're in high beta brainwaves, and they're trying to get them down to a very slower brainwave state.
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:03.759
So they have to.
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:05.039
Have that he's in psychosis?
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:05.679
That's why you can't.
00:09:10.480 --> 00:09:13.600
You can't do that with music in the Nickelback and Noah.
00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:18.240
It's preferred music, so it's their preferred music that took place out of that.
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:20.799
Yeah, I have more and more research on preferred music.
00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:24.080
Yeah, preferred music rather than like certain types of music.
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:24.639
That's right.
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:26.159
Yeah, and working out as well.
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:27.279
You know, same same thing.
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:33.679
They're showing recoveries is higher when you're listening to the music that you like, not just the music that's going on in your gym.
00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:34.799
Yeah.
00:09:35.039 --> 00:09:36.879
So no more nickelbag.
00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:45.600
Well, I I use I use what's the visor, the headpiece that I don't know.
00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:47.600
You have so much um brain tap.
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:50.080
I was gonna say I love I love brain tapping.
00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:52.639
Yeah, brain tap works great.
00:09:52.879 --> 00:10:00.639
And then um I also got this new thing, Neurovisor, which plays a light show, and you like it gets you into a trance.
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:05.919
And seriously, it's like, you know, the stuff that they say is gonna give you energy.
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:11.919
It does give you energy and you're like awake and like changes your whole thought process.
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:19.679
And I I always talk about it because I think it's a great way if you don't know how to meditate or get or have time for it.
00:10:19.840 --> 00:10:23.440
I think it's a great way to just kick your way in there.
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:28.799
Yeah, trying to get those brain waves to change though, watching it on EEGs, yeah, watching the science.
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:30.799
The fastest way I've seen is with music.
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:33.679
Yeah, it changes because everything else you have to think through.
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.600
Yeah, even your thinking, is this working on the music immediately takes you there.
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:37.919
Yeah.
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.879
So it's it's amazing because we are frequency beings.
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:42.960
I mean, we know we all vibrate at different frequencies.
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:43.759
We just are.
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:47.679
Yeah, we're not just this uh physical bag that we see here, right?
00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:48.960
So that's how we met.
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:51.600
We actually met through uh physical bags.
00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:53.279
I was gonna say, did we?
00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:56.080
I'm like, I don't remember that through what?
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:56.720
Through physical.
00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:00.480
Frequency dating.
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:02.320
It should have been dating.
00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:04.480
Someone uh you well, you tell the story.
00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:05.279
That's all right.
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:08.559
I was just in an airport and I was talking about um cold lasers.
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:12.000
I was I used to teach a lot of frequency-based medicine.
00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:12.559
Yeah, right.
00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:15.279
So I'm saying 16 Hertz for you know muscle retraction.
00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:30.720
I was given in a protocol to somebody, and somebody heard me on the phone talking about frequency and hertz, and she said, I've got to tell you about this musician because he opens up for Wayne Dyer, his music is used in hospitals, he's written a book, blah, blah, blah.
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:34.960
And his music has been proven to be changing these frequencies and branding.
00:11:35.200 --> 00:11:36.240
So, anyway, that's how we met.
00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:36.960
Long story short.
00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:40.799
She introduced me to that gal introduced a couple years later.
00:11:41.200 --> 00:11:42.080
Two years later we met.
00:11:42.480 --> 00:11:43.759
So, what do you play?
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:52.559
Uh, so I my main instrument started off as guitar, and actually, I was uh rock musician, hip hop, club music, New York City producer.
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:56.159
So I was not expecting to move into this area, you know.
00:11:56.240 --> 00:12:04.240
What if I say um, you know, the thousands of people every night sleep with Barry Goldstein, you know, because it's true, like people are using my music.
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:09.759
Yeah, I sleep with Barry Goldstein as is my uh is my funny.
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:10.480
But they didn't get it.
00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:12.960
Yeah, literally, I got burnt out in the music business.
00:12:13.039 --> 00:12:13.279
Yeah.
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:18.080
And I said, How do I get back to falling back in love with music again?
00:12:18.320 --> 00:12:24.320
Did some research and found like targeting the heart at a relaxed state, which is about 60 beats per minute.
00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:26.960
This was like almost 30 years ago now.
00:12:27.039 --> 00:12:31.279
They weren't really talking about heart entrainment or coherence back then.
00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:31.600
Yeah.
00:12:31.759 --> 00:12:39.600
And I said, What would happen if I just allowed myself to just take the journey, set my metronome like a DJ, because I I worked with DJs, I know the beats per minute.
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:45.919
I'll set it for 60 beats per minute, and didn't think anyone was gonna listen to this type of music.
00:12:46.080 --> 00:12:54.480
The opposite of what I was doing, yeah, right, which was you had to have a hook, a chorus, you know, three minutes music, and you know, people have to be able to hum it.
00:12:54.639 --> 00:13:13.679
It was like the opposite of that, and just um, you know, started sharing it with with friends and family initially, and just found a a lot of people being able to use it in a dentist's office, yeah, for parents in hospice, and that made me want to research it more of like, okay, I know it's working, but why why is it working?
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:14.559
Yeah, yeah.
00:13:14.960 --> 00:13:29.519
And um we now we now know now that when you move into these smooth and orderly heart rhythms, when you're in training, so you have a physical um metronome, which is our heart, obviously, yeah, it adapts to the tempo of the music.
00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:34.080
Just like when you work out, you listen to faster music, when you want to relax, you listen to slower music.
00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:35.919
This is called entrainment.
00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:44.960
And when you move into those smooth and orderly rhythms, we uh now know as well that the your brain waves start slowing down in conjunction.
00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:49.519
So there's a relationship between heart coherence and brain coherence.
00:13:49.600 --> 00:14:00.639
Yeah, and it's becoming much um much more exciting in terms of a new field that's called neurocardiology, yeah, where they're linking the two together and knowing they affect each other.
00:14:00.799 --> 00:14:05.039
And I think that's really the next step of where it's going in my world.
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:05.519
Yeah.
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:14.559
Because also in the that longevity and biohacking community, we're also looking for like panaceas, and this is gonna fix this.
00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:15.840
Biohacking the brain.
00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:17.840
Or biohacking the brain.
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:18.799
Or even help.
00:14:18.960 --> 00:14:23.360
Yeah, just yeah, but again, it's it's it is individualized medicine.
00:14:23.440 --> 00:14:26.639
It's not just use this frequency for that use, for that.
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:27.919
There's a lot more than that.
00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:34.399
Yeah, and it's geared towards your preferences, specific tempos, specific harmonics.
00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:35.759
It all kind of has to happen.
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:52.639
Specific tones, beats, there's people are gonna respond to different things, and there's there's some ways, like even a lazy person will respond to a certain beat a certain way that like another person wouldn't.
00:14:53.120 --> 00:15:12.480
Do you think some of these, but like some of these DJs just have like I don't know if it's emotional intelligence or music intelligence, because like you see it, like some DJs they can't get anyone on a rhythm, and then some of them they're like every step of the way, they they get a rise and they make the people fall.
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:14.639
And that's a great uh great analogy.
00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:17.679
It matters how many how much drugs the audience is on.
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:21.600
Yeah, well that too, but but yeah, but you can get there without it.
00:15:21.679 --> 00:15:30.000
But that's what I call becoming the DJ of your life because just like everything else, you were talking about you need a program in place that people can adapt to, right?
