The Connection Between Your Body and Mind with Dr. Chris Motley

Deskripsi

Have you ever gotten a clean bill of health and still felt like something was wrong? What if the anxiety, the brain fog, the thing you can't explain isn't in your head, but a story your body inherited?Dr. Chris Motley is a functional medicine practitioner and acupuncturist based in Nashville, and the host of the Ancient Health Podcast. For over 22 years, he's blended Chinese medicine, kinesiology, and biofeedback with Western diagnostics to find what standard testing misses — the chronic weaknesses that don't show up on a bloodwork panel but show up in how we sleep, how we digest, and how we carry stress in our bodies.In this episode, Dr. Motley and Miles talk about how inflammation from food can weaken the blood-brain barrier and surface as anxiety, depression, and ADHD — and why the weakest organ in your body often maps straight back to how your parents and grandparents lived. Today, you'll learn how to read your body's own signals, why curiosity heals faster than fear, and what it actually looks like to get to the root of a problem instead of managing its symptoms.In this conversation, you'll learn:How chronic inflammation from food can weaken the blood-brain barrier and show up as anxiety, depression, or brain fogHow to read your body's own signals — sleep patterns, digestion, even facial features — the way a functional medicine practitioner doesHow your weakest organ can map directly back to how your parents and grandparents livedWhy processed food, not just screens, may be driving the rise in childhood ADD and ADHDHow the gut-brain axis connects what you eat to how you feel within hoursWhy getting curious about a weakness — instead of afraid of it — is the first step to healing itSimple, low-cost first steps to a more fulfilled, healthier life anyone can start today Follow Human School:YouTube - Human School PodcastInstagram - @humanschoolofficialThreads - @humanschoolofficialTikTok - @humanschoolofficial What We Discuss:00:00:00 – Meet Dr. Chris Motley00:02:41 – Why He Left a Growing Practice00:08:19 – The
