  • 92. Ep 92: Why Mouth Taping is a Game Changer with Todd Anderson, Founder of Dream Recovery

    01:02:12||Season 6, Ep. 92
    In 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.

    As Melissa steps into her 42nd year on this earth, she takes a moment to reflect on what birthdays bring up for her and how she’s learned to shift her energy to embrace each day with excitement. Birthdays can unearth feelings we often try to avoid, but Melissa shares how facing them head-on has been transformative. She dives into some hard-earned lessons, like not feeling the need to follow everything her friends may be doing, understanding the weight of our words, and recognizing the power of truth in becoming our best selves. In her 30s, she discovered her voice and clarified her highest priorities, deepening her connection to who she truly is. With every year, she feels more alive, grounded in the belief that when you truly believe, you become.

    26:06||Season 6, Ep. 90
    In this solo episode, Melissa begins with a calming breath and a prayer to help you tap into the moment. She shares how spirituality has become a guiding force in her life, though connecting with a higher power wasn't always her path. 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.

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.
