This week Dr. Porter has an in-depth conversation with Adrea Brier – natural health practitioner since the 1970s. She believes cancer does not have to be a death sentence and that choosing your treatment carefully determines the outcome of the disease. For many years, she served as a senior advocate and veteran’s advocate in conventional medical systems; and for many decades, she has integrated holistic health within the conventional medical system. In 2006, Adrea was diagnosed with breast cancer. At that time, she shifted her focus to work on successfully conquering cancer with healthier approaches. She learned that cancer can be chronic and it was subsequent cancers - rather than the first primary cancer episode - that killed people so she felt it was necessary to address the underlying causes of cancer and address the disease itself in healthy ways that capitalized on the innate healing wisdom of the mind and body. Her cancer consulting practice evolved by demand from others to learn from her knowledge and personal experience in conquering personal cancer episodes. In this episode Adrea will share how she conquers cancer through integrative, holistic and epigenetic approaches—including utilizing BrainTap. She emphasizes working on our personal relationships as they can often be our greatest sources of stress. When we’re less stressed we are more at peace and more focused on our health. What You’ll Learn:  What is cancer and who gets it?  What causes cancer?  How do we address and undermine cancer?  Ways to work on your mindset to reprogram yourself from fear to empowerment.  Ways to address stress.  How to communicate in relationships for less confrontation.  How energy systems affect those around us.

This week on the BrainTap Business Journal Podcast, Dr. Porter was happy to sit down with Suzanne Finder of MindfulSuccess. Suzanne is an interfaith minister, spiritual counselor & neuropsychology educator who helps individuals with chronic physical and emotional challenges. Many of her clients come to her feeling trapped and hopeless, having “tried everything” with very few results. Suzanne and her team at MindfulSuccess provide newfound hope and a way to heal by addressing the nervous system—an approach traditional and functional medicine typically overlook. Suzanne is graduate of Boston University’s Questrom School of Management and began a career in marketing and advertising sales in New York, consistently earning President’s Club (top 10% producer) awards and a 6-figure income. Despite these achievements and 20 years of psychotherapy, her ongoing struggle with PTSD, anxiety, depression, autoimmunity - and under it all - a deep-seated sense of unworthiness – persisted. In a quest to heal herself, Suzanne left the corporate world and became a certified Guiding Mindful Change coach in 2007. She has since been certified in numerous modalities including The Safe and Sound Protocol. Today the focus of her expanding counseling practice, MindfulSuccess, is the restoration of safety. First, through body physiology, and then through the repatterning of non-conscious threat/defense responses into ones that promote health, growth and restoration. MindfulSuccess is seeing unmatched results as clients find connection, safety, trust, healing and hope. What You’ll Learn: • When we're easily triggered into fight/flight (stressed, agitated, angry) or freeze (depression, isolation, shame) we now know these are nervous system calls for help. • Why thinking our way out of a “feeling problem” always leads to lousy results • How the root of all chronic illness can be traced to chronic threat/defense patterns in the nervous system • Physiological safety and trust are required for healing, and how we are naturally wired to heal. • How the smallest muscle in the body can help reset the nervous system. • The value of nervous system pre-hab (foundation for healing) before the rehab (such as Brain-Tap) Links: www.mindfulsuccess.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/suzannefinder/ https://www.facebook.com/suzannefinder/ twitter: @suzannefinder https://www.instagram.com/_mindfulsuccess/ Offer for our Audience: Free Guide to Getting Unstuck and Healing (and complimentary consultation) www.MindfulSuccess.com.
