Lissa Rankin, MD is a mind-body medicine physician, founder of the Whole Health Medicine Institute training program for physicians and other health care providers, and the New York Times bestselling author of Mind Over Medicine: Scientific Proof That You Can Heal Yourself. She is on a grass roots mission to put the care back in health care, and to heal our broken health care system one doctor and one patient at a time.

Discouraged by our broken health care system and curious why some patients do everything right but still wind up sick, Lissa set out to discover why some patients experience miraculous cures from seemingly incurable illnesses, while others remain sick even when they receive the best medical care. She researched what really makes people healthy and what predisposes them to illness not just diet, exercise and standard healthy behaviors, but everything else. What she uncovered in the mainstream medical literature led her to develop a type of medical practice she terms Whole Health Medicine, based on the scientifically-proven healthy behaviors she shares in Mind Over Medicine. She is now leading a health care revolution to empower patients to heal themselves, while encouraging the health care industry to embrace and facilitate, rather than resist, such medical miracles.

Mentioned in this interview

• Spy Mom
• Beth’s website

Beth and I talked about getting in the writer’s zone and how she shuts out the rest of the world. I immediately thought of one of my favorite visual images of getting in the zone. It was from the movie For The Love of the Game with Kevin Costner.

Here is a clip of Costner has shutting out the noise from the fans and getting into the zone.

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WF8KJZev7u0&feature=colike

How often do you hear those words in your own head?

Next time, I invite you to practice “clear the mechanism” as Costner’s character did and as Beth does in her writing process. Let go of outcomes and focus on the process. Beth does one page at a time and Costner’s character did one pitch at a time.

“How freeing it is to go to bed at night and not worry about what I ate that day.

I am no longer a prisoner of food.”

~ Regina, Weight Loss Client, on How She Really Does It

I wanted to share Regina’s journey with you because it is so damn inspiring how she has changed her life. Like you and me, she is a real woman with a real life that is busy, challenging, filled with happiness and sadness. There are days of struggle and days filled with gratitude and love.

She does not want to be the “poster woman” or even tell others what to do. But she is willing to share her REAL experience. Because it is so easy to think “so and so ate this food, or did this form of exercise and that was the secret to her weight loss.” For her it was not one food, or finding the right exercise to do. In this interview, Regina goes deep on all the facets that helped her on this journey.

You may be able to relate. 26 months ago she did not believe she could create the life she wanted. Over the past 26 months, she has created the life she so craved.

I invite you to listen to her journey and maybe this can give you inspiration and insight to see what is truly possible for yourself. So often we look for the secret recipe, food, or blueprint for weight loss. We believe this “secret” will end the massive amounts of time and energy we spend on food + our bodies in our daily lives. We want to know what the magic food or exercise to incorporate into our lives so we can lose this damn weight forever! But when you listen to her journey, you will realize it was none of that – recipe, specific food/exercise program or blueprint.

In this interview with Regina, we zoom in and out on her personal journey and how she has changed her relationship with food and exercise resulting in a byproduct of over 80 pounds lost. All this and not going on a diet.

I hope this interview gives you insight and helps you or someone you know who may struggle with food, diets, exercise and is a prisoner. Maybe with this interview you can see the glimmer of possibilities for yourself.

Thank you for joining us!

IN THIS INTERVIEW WE DISCUSS:

• how Regina now views food
• Regina’s relationship with food now
• what her relationship with food was like 2 years ago
• her mindset now and how this helped her on this journey
• she hated exercise and now is passionate about it – how???
• how uncovering from shame is the crux of her journey
• how she cultivated courage
• how her journey is affecting her relationships in her life
• how much energy this process really took
• the effort she put into this process + what she received from it
• building a team of support

How can you go through a difficult life changing event and continue to move forward?

Lee Woodruff really understands this from her own personal experience. Her husband Bob Woodruff was at the top of his game in 2006 as co-anchor of ABC’s World News Tonight. But then tragedy struck when he was in a tank in Iraq which was hit by an explosive. Bob was severely injured and nearly died. Six years after his traumatic brain injury, Bob has stated that he is “getting back to normal” at home and at work as a national correspondent for ABC.

Lee talks honestly about resilience moving forward in her life and finding the ability to hope again. And through her journey Lee has achieved her own dream after the age of 50 by writing her debut novel Those We Loved Most which hit the New York Times Best Seller list.

Those We Loved Most is a book about human resilience. My favorite quote is in the beginning “Loss is not the end, it’s simply an invitation to change.”

We discuss:

• why Lee choose to write this story?
• loss, grief and resilience
• “magical thinking” ~ trying to make the tape in the mind change the present
• when in the dark abyss, how do you know that life will be better?
• what the past six years have taught her

What would you do today if you only had 37 days to live?

My guest Patti Digh asked herself that 38 days after her step-father was diagnosed with cancer.

He had passed away on the 37th day.

The experience of those 37 days lead her to create a body of work where Patti wanted to write everything down she wanted to remember and everything that she wanted her kids to know about her. She wanted her kids to know she was a human person full of fears and vulnerabilities, successes and the things she was proud of. As well as things that she has failed at.

Her blog 37days.com was a way to tell her story. Stories from her life to her children.

She also did not want to be told that tomorrow is day 1 and have regrets. She lives by “this is exactly the life I wanted to live.”

Patti is an author, speaker and mother. She has written 6 books including best sellers Life is a Verb and Creative is a Verb.

Patti and I discussed

My epiphany after the interview with Zack is to ask a better question. Stop asking “who the hell am I to do….” Instead ask “What do I want to create TODAY?” Start today by taking the steps of what you see is possible. Dont’ worry about where you end up. Stop your story of who you once were. It did not stop Jay-Z nor Zack. What’s stopping you? What step can you take TODAY to move you forward.
