01:02:12||Season 6, Ep. 92In this episode, Melissa sits down with Todd Anderson, an athlete turned entrepreneur, who has always been fascinated with optimizing human performance, particularly through sleep. Initially skeptical of the wellness trend of mouth taping at night, Melissa shares how everything changed once she tried it herself. Todd explains the evolutionary significance of nasal breathing, noting how most people unknowingly breathe through their mouths while sleeping. This simple shift to nasal breathing has profoundly impacted Melissa's anxiety levels, with benefits ranging from stress reduction and improved sleep to better oral health and a more defined jawline. They discuss Dream Recovery, the best quality tape for optimal results and skin protection, designed to make the practice of mouth taping more accessible—even for those who find it nerve-wracking. As science continues to uncover more benefits, Melissa encourages listeners to stay open to new wellness practices and see how they can positively transform their lives.Go to boncharge.com/mwh and use code MWH for 25% OFF your purchase sitewide until the end of 2024.Discover Cotton, The Fabric of Now, at TheFabricOfOurLives.com Use code MWH15 to get 15% off at dreamrecovery.comLimited Time Offer: Use code movewithheart when you sign up for a monthly membership to get your first month FREE.Hosted on Acast.

26:06||Season 6, Ep. 90In this solo episode, Melissa begins with a calming breath and a prayer to help you tap into the moment.

Over time, her journey unfolded, revealing the importance of this connection. Melissa shares a story from a trip to Canada, where she nearly faced denial at the border, and how tapping into source turned the situation around. She reflects on a favorite prayer from A Course In Miracles: “Where would you have me go, what would you have me do, what would you have me say, and to whom?” explaining what it means to her personally. Melissa also explores how knowing your Enneagram type can offer insight into your personality and strengths, and why asking for clear signs can bring you closer to trusting the journey.

23:13||Season 6, Ep. 88It’s been five years since Melissa stopped drinking alcohol, and life has transformed completely. She now navigates anxiety and stress by managing her mental health in a much healthier way, recognizing triggers without letting them take over. When she wakes up in a dark place, she dives deep into her life, getting radically honest with herself. To truly evolve, you have to be willing to do the work, change, and tap into what brings you joy and a strong sense of self. Instead of forcing things, it’s about connecting to source, remembering that you’re the creator of your life. Melissa suggests making a "joy list" and returning to those things whenever you feel disconnected. She’s discovered what elevates her mood without spiking anxiety and even has a favorite go-to for making non-alcoholic drinks.
