What if the future we’re building is also building us?

Two years after her first visit to Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell, dancer, artist, and creator Kristen Mangione — The Dance Alchemist — returns for a beautiful exploration of creativity, movement, presence, and what happens when the work we create begins speaking back to us.

Our conversation was inspired by Kristen’s recent Artist’s Letters, where she shares the discoveries emerging from her own creative process rather than simply reporting what she has done or promoting what comes next.

Together, we explore some wonderfully expansive questions:

✨ What happens when we revisit something we created years ago and discover it still has something to teach us?

✨ Can the future we are creating actually participate in shaping who we become?

✨ What happens when the clock becomes irrelevant and we become completely absorbed in an experience?

✨ What is the difference between **doing** and truly **being**?

✨ Can an old story remain part of our history without continuing to organize our future?

✨ What changes when movement becomes ceremony — art that is not simply observed, but inhabited?

Michelle also brings these ideas into conversation with BioEnergetic Wellness (BEW) and its person-led, future-oriented approach to wellbeing. Rather than prescribing what someone should become, what might happen when we create the conditions for awareness, possibility, organization, and new experiences to emerge?

🫖 Our CommuniTEA Pause: 1897 GenerosiTEA

“Open your heart to hope and optimism, for your resilience and pure generosity inspires others.”

We highlight currant and apple as we consider resilience, possibility, nourishment, creativity, and the seeds of a future that may already be present within what we are creating today.

Kristen also invites us into the beautiful idea that perhaps we don't always need more time.

Perhaps we need a different relationship with time — moments when attention finds a home, the clock becomes irrelevant, and we are fully inside the life we are living.

And we leave you with an invitation:

What have you already created that might be waiting for you to return and listen again?

Don't return to critique it.

Return with curiosity.

It may have something to say to the person you have become.

Who holds the authority for healing?

Is it the therapist, the method, the diagnosis, the research—or the person actually living the experience?

In this thought-provoking episode of Be Well with Michelle Greenwell, writer and conceptual artist Mark A. Michaels joins Michelle to explore some of the assumptions underlying traditional psychotherapy, contemporary psychedelic therapy, and our broader healing culture.

Drawing from his forthcoming preprint, Binaries, Multitudes, and Beyond, Mark examines authority, expertise, personal agency, and what can happen when individuals are encouraged to engage critically and creatively with their own therapeutic experiences.

Together, Michelle and Mark explore an important distinction: expertise does not necessarily have to mean authority.

Can we value the knowledge of therapists, physicians, researchers, and facilitators while also honouring the lived experience and observations of the individual? Can healing language sometimes encourage us to continually search for something that needs fixing? And what becomes possible when we move beyond being a recipient of care and become an active participant in our own wellbeing?

They also explore psychedelic therapy and vulnerability, creativity as another way of knowing, the surprising value of humour and irreverence, and one particularly important question:

If we remove the expert from the centre of the healing process, what belongs in the centre instead?

🫖 CommuniTEA Pause: SoulTEA Harbour

Michelle opens the conversation with SoulTEA Harbour from the Cape Breton Tea Company, highlighting anise and cardamom and the intention:

“Balance and Flow is possible when we open to be present for our true heart's desires. Come home to your heart.”

The harbour becomes a metaphor for the entire conversation: perhaps expertise can offer shelter, knowledge, perspective, and help with navigation—without determining our destination.

During the episode, you’ll also be invited into simple experiential pauses to consider:

What do I believe needs fixing?
Where did I learn that?
Whose definition of “better” am I using?
What does my heart actually desire?
And if nobody else were interpreting my experience for me, what would I notice?

This isn't a conversation about rejecting expertise. It is an invitation to become curious about our relationship with it—and to consider how observation, choice, creativity, intuition, and personal participation can become part of our everyday experience of wellbeing.

What if anger isn't something we need to suppress, but a signal that something is blocked, misaligned, or ready to change?

In Episode 6 of Emotions & Healing, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, and Denise Cambiotti, HCD, CIH BioEW, to explore the Wood Element, Liver and Gall Bladder meridians, and the emotions of anger, resentment, and frustration.

Wood represents growth, expansion, vision, planning, decision-making, and forward movement. When balanced, we can feel clear, motivated, decisive, and flexible. When challenged, we may experience irritability, impulsive decisions, indecision, stagnation, or the feeling that we simply cannot move forward.

Kate and Denise explore how these emotions can influence our posture, movement, muscle responses, performance, recovery, and the choices we make. We also look at the Anterior Deltoid, Popliteus, Pectoralis Sternal, and Rhomboid muscle relationships through Touch for Health®.

Tea with Intentions: Releasing the Warrior

Our featured Cape Breton Tea Company blend is Releasing the Warrior, chosen to support the Wood Element and the transformation of anger into purposeful action.

Dandelion represents resilience and release, inviting us to clear stored frustration and stagnant energy.

Juniper Berry represents protection and clarity, helping us refine our direction, release emotional heaviness, and move forward with intention.

Together, they remind us that strength is not about force. It is about clarity, direction, and release.

As you sip, consider:

Where am I holding tension?

Where am I pushing too hard—or not moving at all?

The Wood Element reminds us that growth requires both strength and flexibility. When we listen to anger rather than simply react to it, we can begin transforming frustration into movement, resentment into clarity, and anger into purposeful direction.

What if joy isn't something we need to chase, but something we learn to circulate?

In our final episode of Emotions & Healing, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, and Denise Cambiotti, HCD, CIH BioEW, as we complete our journey through the Five Elements with a deeper exploration of Fire: the Circulation Sex and Triple Warmer meridians.

These systems invite us to consider how we circulate energy, sustain vitality, regulate stress, and remain connected with joy, passion, and purpose.

The Circulation Sex Meridian is associated with cellular nourishment and renewal, reproductive health, circulation, and emotional connection. Triple Warmer brings our attention to heat regulation, respiration, digestion, elimination, glandular and hormonal balance, and the stress response.

Together, Kate, Denise, and Michelle explore what happens when stress becomes our normal state. How can fatigue, burnout, movement challenges, or “masked pain” disconnect us from joy? And what simple tools can help us restore balance?

We also explore the muscle relationships associated with these meridians, including the hips, inner thighs, and lower legs, and consider their roles in stability, coordination, grounding, and propulsion.

Tea with Intentions

For our final tea ritual, we share Liberty Wine and Power Pack from the Cape Breton Tea Company.

Sea Holly represents strength and resilience, inviting inner stability and the ability to stand confidently in our truth and vitality.

Cardamom brings warmth and activation, awakening the senses and inviting joy and openness.

Together, they represent balanced activation: not burnout, but sustained vitality and joy.

Our affirmation:

“The Fire Element supports processing, clearing, and enhancing the most important aspects of joyful living.”

As you sip, ask yourself:

Where does joy flow freely in my life?

Where has stress or fatigue muted it?

What would help me reconnect with vitality?

This final episode reminds us that joy is not something we chase. It is something we circulate.

As we complete Emotions & Healing, consider what you have discovered about your emotions, the patterns you now recognize, and the tools you are ready to bring into daily life.

Explore courses with Denise through Muscle Tuners International, connect with Kate and her books, and continue learning with Michelle and Denise through the Movement Mastery Program.

Thank you for joining us on this journey. May you continue to listen deeply, move with intention, and live well.

What happens when fear is no longer something we need to fight—but information we can learn to understand?

In Episode 5 of Emotions & Healing, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, and Denise Cambiotti, HCD, CIH BioEW, as we continue around the Five Element Wheel and explore the wisdom of the Water Element.

Through the lens of Five Element Theory, Touch for Health®, and BioEnergetic Wellness, we explore the Kidney and Bladder meridians and their relationship with fear, anxiety, courage, resilience, trust, and our ability to move forward when life feels uncertain.

Fear has an important purpose. It can alert us, protect us, and help us recognize when something requires our attention. But what happens when fear continues after the immediate challenge has passed? What happens when worry or anxiety begins influencing our choices, movement, posture, breathing, energy, or confidence?

Instead of judging the emotion, we can become curious about the information it may be offering.

In This Conversation We Explore:

💙 The Water Element within the Five Element Theory

💙 The Kidney and Bladder meridians

💙 Fear and anxiety as information rather than emotions we need to suppress

💙 The relationship between fear, courage, trust, and resilience

💙 How our bodies may respond when we feel uncertain or unsafe

💙 The influence of posture, movement, muscles, and emotional patterns

💙 Practical Touch for Health® and BioEnergetic Wellness tools that can support awareness and organization

💙 How small changes can help us recognize new choices and possibilities

The Water Element reminds us that courage does not necessarily mean being without fear.

Sometimes courage is recognizing fear, listening to what it has to say, and discovering that we still have choices about what happens next.

Tea with Intentions

As with every conversation in the Emotions & Healing series, we begin with a mindful pause and our Tea with Intentions.

Our tea ritual gives us an opportunity to engage the senses, become present, establish an intention, and notice what changes before we begin exploring the Water Element.

Prepare your own cup of tea, take a moment to notice your breath, and consider:

What might become possible if I could acknowledge fear while still trusting myself to move forward?

Building Your Emotional Wellness Toolbox

One of the goals of this series is to help you develop simple skills you can return to in everyday life.

You don't need to wait until emotions become overwhelming.

By learning to notice subtle changes in breath, posture, movement, tension, energy, and emotional responses, we can begin developing greater awareness of what our bodies are communicating.

That awareness gives us somewhere to begin.

What if healing begins with a single breath?

In Episode 4 of Emotions & Healing, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, and Denise Cambiotti, HCD, CIH BioEW, as they explore the Metal Element through the wisdom of the Five Element Theory, Touch for Health, and the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula.

The Lung and Large Intestine meridians teach us the importance of breathing deeply, processing grief, establishing healthy boundaries, and letting go of what no longer supports our wellbeing. When the Metal Element is balanced, we experience clarity, inspiration, and the ability to move forward with greater ease. When it is challenged, we may hold onto sadness, regret, guilt, or find ourselves resisting the changes life is asking us to embrace.

Together we explore:

🌬️ The Metal Element and emotional resilience

🌿 The Lung and Large Intestine meridians

💛 The relationship between breath, grief, and emotional healing

🍂 Healthy boundaries and the art of letting go

✨ How posture, movement, and muscle balance influence emotional wellbeing

🌱 Practical Touch for Health techniques that support emotional release and renewed vitality

Tea with Intentions

Today's featured blend from the Cape Breton Tea Company is Thyme Passages, thoughtfully chosen to support the Metal Element and the journey of releasing what no longer serves us.

Featured herbs include:

🌿 Thyme – encouraging courage, clarity, purification, and trust in new beginnings.

🌿 Lemon Peel – bringing brightness, optimism, and the gentle reminder that every ending creates space for something new.

🌿 Peppermint – inviting emotional freshness, calm breathing, and renewed perspective.

Affirmation:

"With every breath, I release what no longer serves me and welcome new possibilities with an open heart."

Prepare your favourite cup of tea, take a slow, intentional breath, and join us as we discover how the wisdom of the Metal Element can help us move through grief, embrace change, and find freedom in letting go.

Facing Dementia – Episode 9 | The Joy Calendar: Living Toward What Matters Most 

What if the key to healthy aging isn't simply preventing disease...

...but creating a life filled with purpose, joy, and meaning?

In this inspiring episode of Facing Dementia, Michelle Greenwell welcomes back intuitive transformation mentor and award-winning author Laurin Wittig to revisit a simple idea that emerged from their previous conversation—the Joy Calendar.

Rather than filling our calendars with obligations and "to-do" lists, what happens when we intentionally schedule the activities that restore us, inspire us, and remind us why life is worth living?

Together, Michelle and Laurin explore the powerful shift from living in prevention to living with purpose.. They discuss how fear can quietly give way to trust, how meaningful goals influence our daily choices, and how the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula offers a practical framework for creating resilience through awareness, intention, action, community, and intuition.

This conversation reminds us that wellness is more than avoiding illness—it is learning to flourish.

In this episode you'll discover:

✨ How the Joy Calendar can transform your daily life
✨ Why meaningful goals change the way we experience the present
✨ Moving from fear and prevention toward purpose and possibility
✨ The Wellness Compass: keeping your eyes on the life you want to create
✨ How BioEnergetic Wellness helps you understand your own stress patterns through awareness and biofeedback
✨ Why learning wellness tools while you are healthy builds lifelong resilience
✨ How small, intentional choices create lasting change

Featured Tea Ritual – Fill Yer Boots!
Strawberry Matcha with Moringa & Canadian Maple Sugar

Affirmation:
"The heart of this matcha awakens our inner love and lets the sweetness of compassion flow freely to ourselves and others."

Today's tea beautifully reflects the theme of the episode:

🍓 Strawberry – Joy, playfulness, gratitude, and appreciating the sweetness already present in life.

🌿 Moringa – Resilience, nourishment, vitality, and supporting the life you are intentionally creating.

🍁 Canadian Maple Sugar – Patience, compassion, transformation, and the sweetness that comes from growing through life's seasons.

🍵 Matcha – Rich in antioxidants and naturally occurring L-theanine, matcha promotes calm focus, sustained energy, and mindful presence—helping us meet each day with clarity and intention.

Together, these ingredients remind us that wellness is cultivated through the choices we make each day.

What are you taking in each day—and are you giving yourself the nourishment you truly need?

In Episode 3 of Emotions & Healing, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, and Denise Cambiotti, HCD, CIH BioEW, to explore the Earth Element through the wisdom of the Five Element Theory, Touch for Health, and the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula.

The Stomach and Spleen meridians do much more than digest food. They help us process experiences, build resilience, strengthen immunity, and transform emotional overwhelm into grounded compassion. When the Earth Element is out of balance, we may become overly critical, worried, depleted, or feel responsible for everyone else's wellbeing while neglecting our own.

Together we explore:

🌎 The Earth Element and emotional balance

🌾 The Stomach and Spleen meridians

💛 Digestion, immunity, and whole-person wellness

💛 Empathy, compassion, and healthy emotional boundaries

💛 The connection between posture, movement, muscles, and emotional health

💛 Practical Touch for Health techniques that support emotional resilience

💛 Everyday strategies for restoring balance, energy, and wellbeing

Tea with Intentions

Today's featured blend from the Cape Breton Tea Company is Symphony of the Earth, thoughtfully selected to support the Earth Element and encourage emotional nourishment.

Featured herbs include:

🌿 Peppermint – bringing clarity, gentle movement, and relief while supporting healthy digestion and helping emotions flow rather than becoming stuck.

🌺 Hibiscus – encouraging renewal, resilience, and the willingness to receive support as readily as we offer it to others.

Trauma changes us—but it does not define us.

In this heartfelt conversation, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes internationally recognized author and self-help expert Faust Ruggiero, M.S. to explore the many faces of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and the path toward healing.

Drawing from over forty years of professional experience and his  book, "The Fix Your PTSD Handbook", Faust explains how trauma affects the body, mind, and emotions, why PTSD exists on a spectrum rather than as a single diagnosis, and what practical steps can help people begin reconnecting with themselves and others.

Together, they explore:
🌿 Understanding the five types of PTSD
🌿 How unresolved trauma affects the nervous system and emotional wellbeing
🌿 Why healing involves the whole person—not just the mind
🌿 Rebuilding trust after trauma
🌿 The importance of connection, hope, and compassionate support

Dr. Greenwell also introduces a BioEnergetic Wellness perspective through the Five Element Wheel, offering a holistic way to understand how trauma can affect fear, grief, joy, grounding, and our sense of direction in life.

Tea Ritual

Before the conversation begins, we pause with "SoulTEA Harbour" from the Cape Breton Tea Company.

Featuring soothing Licorice Root and mineral-rich Stinging Nettle, this nourishing herbal blend reminds us to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with our hearts.

Today's affirmation:

"Balance and Flow is possible when we open to be present for our true heart's desires. Come home to your heart."

We invite you to make a cup of tea and join us in creating a moment of calm before listening.

How do joy, love, passion, and emotional connection influence your health?

In Episode 2 of Emotions & Healing, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, and Denise Cambiotti, HCD, CIH BioEW, as they explore the Fire Element through the wisdom of the Five Element Theory, Touch for Health, and the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula.

The Heart and Small Intestine meridians do far more than support circulation and digestion—they influence our ability to experience joy, develop meaningful relationships, make clear decisions, and remain emotionally resilient. When these systems become imbalanced, we may experience burnout, scattered thinking, emotional overwhelm, sleep disturbances, digestive challenges, or a loss of passion for the things we once loved.

Together we explore:

❤️ The Fire Element and its role in emotional wellbeing

❤️ The Heart and Small Intestine meridians

❤️ Joy, love, passion, and emotional discernment

❤️ How emotional balance influences memory, focus, and relationships

❤️ Why burnout is often a sign of energetic imbalance

❤️ Simple Touch for Health tools that support heart-centered wellbeing

❤️ Practical strategies for restoring vitality and emotional resilience

Tea with Intentions

Today's featured blend from the Cape Breton Tea Company is **Apple Passion**, a heart-centered tea selected to support the Fire Element.

Featured herbs include:

Cinnamon – inspiring courage, warmth, vitality, and joyful action.

Cloves – supporting emotional strength, integrity, and heart coherence.

Vanilla – inviting harmony, kindness, and the gentle reminder that joy can be received as well as created.

Affirmation: "I embrace the opportunities that I have been given and allow them to bring joy to my life."

Prepare your favourite cup of tea, take a deep breath, and join us as we explore how cultivating joy can transform both body and mind.

Discover how caregiving can become a journey of resilience, connection, and hope.

In this heartfelt episode of 'Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell', I welcome Sandy Andress, author of 'Caregiver's Guide', to share her deeply personal journey of caring for two of her siblings and how that experience inspired a faith-based book and workshop designed to support caregivers.

Together, we explore how caregiving can be more than simply managing responsibilities. It can become an opportunity to strengthen relationships, nurture your own wellbeing, and discover practical ways to continue thriving while supporting someone you love.

As part of every podcast, we also create an experience of rejuvenation using the 'BioEnergetic Wellness Formula.' During this episode, you'll be guided through two simple wellness tools you can use immediately:

Emotional Stress Release (ESR) – to calm the mind, ease emotional stress, and create space for new solutions.

Cook's Hook-Ups – to encourage relaxation, improve communication, support restful sleep, ease tension, and foster a deeper connection with yourself and those you care for.

Before our conversation, we also share a mindful tea ritual featuring '1897 GenerosiTEA' from the Cape Breton Tea Company. Together. we explore the spiritual essence of blueberry and currant and reflect on how compassion differs from sympathy and empathy. True generosity comes from a place of renewal, allowing us to give without becoming depleted.

In this episode you'll discover:

• How Sandy's caregiving journey inspired her faith-based book and workshop.
• Why healthy relationships are at the heart of effective caregiving.
• Practical communication strategies for caregivers and healthcare teams.
• Ways to care for yourself while caring for someone you love.
• How small moments of awareness can transform the caregiving experience.
• Two simple BioEnergetic Wellness tools you can begin using today.

Whether you are currently a caregiver, anticipate becoming one, support someone in that role, or simply want to build stronger, more compassionate relationships, this conversation offers practical guidance, encouragement, and hope.

What happens when you've done all the research?

You've read the books.
Changed your lifestyle.
Learned the science.
Followed the recommendations.
Done everything you know to do...

And yet, fear still lingers.

In this heartfelt episode of Facing Dementia, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes intuitive transformation mentor and award-winning author Laurin Wittig for one of the most profound conversations in the series—a discussion about the moment when knowledge gives way to wisdom.

Laurin shares the deeply personal realization that she has reached a turning point in her journey. Rather than continuing to search for more information about preventing dementia, she is learning to trust what she already knows, listen to her body's wisdom, and embrace life with greater presence instead of fear.

Together, Michelle and Laurin explore how this shift is not about giving up—it is about moving from fear to trust, from willpower to flow, and from constantly trying to prevent illness to intentionally cultivating vitality.

In this episode you'll discover:

✨ Why endless research can become another source of stress
✨ How fear can quietly shape our wellness journey
✨ The difference between information and embodied wisdom
✨ Why intuition becomes an important partner in healing
✨ How the BioEnergetic Wellness Formula helps build resilience before crisis occurs
✨ The importance of awareness, biofeedback, and understanding your body's unique stress patterns
✨ How living fully today supports long-term wellbeing

🍵 Featured Tea Ritual: Nature's Diamonds

Today's tea reminds us of our deep connection to nature and our own innate vitality.

Affirmation:
"With every sip, I absorb the radiant vitality of nature's diamonds."

Featured botanical essences include:

🌿 Moringa – Nourishment, resilience, and restoring vitality from within.

🍋 Lime – Clarity, emotional renewal, release, and fresh perspective.

🫐 Currants – Joy, abundance, restoration, and remembering the sweetness of life.

Together they remind us that wellness is not simply the absence of disease—it is living fully connected to ourselves, to nature, and to the present moment.

🌿 The episode concludes with a gentle guided meditation to help you release fear, reconnect with the present, and embrace your own path forward with greater trust and peace.

As we conclude our special Migraine Awareness Month series, we invite you into a conversation that expands beyond symptoms and healing tools into something even deeper—the power of peace.

In this inspiring episode of Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell, we welcome Karen Lee Cohen, affectionately known as the "Peace Whisperer." Karen is an 8-time Regional Emmy® Award-winning Producer, Executive Producer, author, and founder of the Let's Be Peace Movement.

Together, we explore how creating peace within ourselves can positively influence our health, our relationships, our communities, and ultimately our world.

Karen shares the story behind her collaborative book:

"Let's Be Peace: 20 Unique Paths to Healing Yourself and Spreading Peace in the World"

This remarkable collection brings together twenty contributors who offer unique perspectives and modalities for creating mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. Whether you are new to holistic wellness or have been exploring complementary health practices for years, this conversation offers inspiration, practical ideas, and hope.

In This Episode

What it means to "Be Peace"

The inspiration behind the Let's Be Peace Movement

How inner peace supports physical and emotional wellbeing

Simple techniques for creating peace within

The role of holistic, complementary, and alternative wellness approaches

Learning to trust your inner guidance and intuition

How individual healing contributes to collective healing

Creating a more peaceful world—one person at a time

Featured Tea Ritual
Mission4Change CommuniTEA

Before our conversation begins, we pause with a cup of Mission4Change CommuniTEA from the Cape Breton Tea Company.

Its affirmation reminds us:

💚 "In community we are empowered for change."

This beautiful herbal blend reflects the spirit of Karen's message—that meaningful change begins when people come together with compassion, purpose, and a willingness to support one another.

Featured herbs include:

🌿 Lavender – carrying the spiritual essence of serenity, trust, restoration, and peace.

🍃 Strawberry Leaves – representing generosity, heart-centered living, kindness, and the nurturing power of community.

Together they remind us that peace is both an inner experience and an outward expression.

A Tea That Creates Change

Mission4Change CommuniTEA also supports the Moyo Family in Malawi, whose community faces significant challenges due to drought, food insecurity, lack of access to medicine, education, and stable shelter.

Every purchase helps provide hope, support, and practical assistance where it is needed most.

Each cup becomes a reminder that healing ourselves and caring for others are part of the same journey.

What would change in your life if you chose peace today?

In this inspiring conversation, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Tanya Levy and Marian Egan to explore how art, colour, frequency, intuition, and BioEnergetic Wellness tools can support those living with migraines and chronic stress.

Healing is not always found in doing more.

Sometimes healing begins through creativity, self-expression, and learning to listen to the subtle messages of the body.

Together, we discuss how art can become a pathway to regulation, awareness, and recovery, even during times when energy is low and symptoms feel overwhelming.

In This Episode

How colour and frequency can influence wellness and self-awareness

Marian Egan's intuitive art process and the creation of healing frequency paintings through Heart Art Magic

Using art as a tool for relaxation, regulation, and personal insight

The connection between creativity, the nervous system, and migraine recovery

Exploring the Affirmations for the BioField Deck

How nature-based imagery can help identify areas of the body and biofield needing support

Practical BioEnergetic Wellness tools that can be used individually or combined for personalized self-care

Working with the It's in the Cards deck to create customized wellness practices

Simple ways to build a daily self-care routine, even during challenging migraine days

Featured Tea Ritual

Before our conversation begins, we pause for a mindful tea ritual to create space for reflection and healing.

Tea rituals remind us that wellness is often found in small, intentional moments.

A warm cup, a deep breath, a quiet pause, and a willingness to listen to what the body is asking for.

Throughout this Migraine Awareness Month series, we have explored how mindfulness, movement, story, language, creativity, and community can all become valuable allies on the healing journey.

Why Art Matters in Healing

Art has the ability to bypass the analytical mind and communicate directly with emotion, memory, intuition, and the nervous system.

For those living with migraines, creative practices can offer:

🌿 Moments of calm and restoration

🌿 Opportunities for emotional expression

🌿 Reduced stress and nervous system activation

🌿 Increased self-awareness

🌿 A renewed connection to joy and possibility

Healing doesn't always require words.

Sometimes colour speaks.

Sometimes images reveal what we have not yet been able to articulate.

Sometimes creativity becomes the bridge back to ourselves.

Migraine is more than pain.

It can affect vision, digestion, concentration, mood, energy, relationships, work, confidence, and the dreams we quietly place on hold while trying to manage the next episode.

During this special Migraine Awareness Month conversation, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes Kelly Richardson, bioenergetic wellness professional, educator, speaker, and founder of the Richardson Center for Learning & Wellness, to explore a different perspective on migraine healing.

What if the goal is not only symptom suppression?

What if healing begins by understanding what the body is prioritizing—and what life you are ready to reclaim?

In this episode we explore:
✨ Why migraine can become more than a physical condition
✨ How muscle monitoring and biofeedback help identify body priorities
✨ The connection between stress, trauma, emotional patterns, inflammation, nutrition, and migraine experiences
✨ How the body may respond to physical, chemical, mental, emotional, electrical, and energetic stressors
✨ Why addressing the wrong priority may delay progress
✨ Specialized kinesiology and bioenergetic wellness approaches
✨ How Touch for Health can empower self-awareness and healing
✨ Why your future goals matter in the healing process

Kelly Richardson combines kinesiology, neuroscience-informed wellness approaches, trauma awareness, energy work, and education to help individuals move from overwhelm into clarity, resilience, and wellbeing.

Welcome back to our special Migraine Awareness Month series on Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell, where we explore healing through movement, mindfulness, bioenergetic wellness, and the wisdom already living within us.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Amber Horrox—author, migraine educator, advocate, and host of the Your Migraine Story Matters podcast.

Amber shares her deeply personal journey of living with migraine for nearly 20 years before experiencing full-time disability in 2018. Through writing, storytelling, self-advocacy, and community, she found a pathway back to herself—and now helps others do the same through her work, publications, and educational programs. 

This conversation explores what happens when pain becomes a messenger, when silence gives way to self-trust, and when reclaiming your voice becomes part of reclaiming your health.

In This Episode

✨ Amber's migraine journey from invisibility to advocacy
 ✨ Living with chronic migraine and disability
 ✨ The healing power of storytelling and self-expression
 ✨ Why your migraine story matters
 ✨ Writing as a pathway to self-discovery and empowerment
 ✨ The role of community in healing chronic illness
 ✨ Moving from control to creation
 ✨ Finding joy and identity beyond pain
 ✨ Wellness practices to support nervous system regulation and recovery

The Power of Metaphor in Healing with Linda from The Mindful Migraine

June is Migraine Awareness Month, and throughout this special series on Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell, we're exploring practical tools, inspiring stories, and holistic approaches that can support those living with migraine.

In this episode, Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes Linda from The Mindful Migraine, an Australian writer, researcher, and migraine advocate whose personal healing journey led her from experiencing almost daily migraines to finding greater balance through mindfulness, body awareness, and holistic wellness practices.

Linda's unique perspective comes from her doctoral research on metaphors—the language we use to describe our experiences. Together, we explore how phrases like "I'm carrying too much," "I'm drowning," or "healing is an uphill battle" may reveal deeper clues about stress, nervous system regulation, and the healing process itself.

In This Episode:

✨ Linda's personal migraine healing journey
✨ How metaphor shapes our experience of pain and recovery
✨ Choosing healing language that supports rather than exhausts us
✨ The connection between mindset, nervous system regulation, and wellness
✨ Tai Chi practices for reducing tension and supporting balance
✨ Touch for Health insights into common migraine-related tension patterns
✨ Gentle acupressure points for Wood and Kidney Element support
✨ Why healing isn't always about fighting harder

Featured Tea Ritual: Releasing the Warrior

Before the conversation begins, we share a mindful tea ritual featuring Releasing the Warrior from the Cape Breton Tea Company.

This blend invites us to soften the fight and create space for healing.

Affirmation:
"My ability to let the fight go begins the healing process."

Featured herbs include:
🌿 Parsley – supporting renewal, purification, and fresh beginnings
🌿 Coriander – offering clarity, cooling energy, and gentle emotional release

Resonance Rising Trilogy – Episode 3: Living Forward

What if purpose is not something you chase—but something you remember?

In the final episode of the Resonance Rising trilogy, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Ann Smets and Ann-Marie Boudreau to explore purpose, trust, universal connection, and the healing intelligence of sound.

When we release the past and become present in the body, purpose begins to emerge naturally—as joy, creativity, contribution, and meaningful connection.

This episode expands beyond the body and into the greater field, inviting listeners to explore the relationship between personal healing and collective resonance.
In this episode, we explore:
✨ Purpose without pressure
✨ The body as a microcosm of the universe
✨ Planetary resonance and the symphony of creation
✨ Sound as the language of life
✨ Trust, intuition, and inner power
✨ Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls, tuning forks, and OM
✨ Healing as contribution to the collective field
This episode is a guided invitation to expand, listen, trust, and live forward in resonance with who you truly are.

Today’s featured tea from the Cape Breton Tea Company is Mission4Change CommuniTEA, a soft herbal blend with the affirmation:

“In Community we are empowered for change.”

In this episode, we highlight the global essence of peppermint and rooibos. Peppermint brings clarity, upliftment, and active transformation, while rooibos offers grounding, nurturing, and heart-centered support. Together, they create a beautiful balance for conscious, calm, and purposeful action in the world.

Prepare a cup as you listen, and let this blend invite you into reflection:

How can clarity and compassion guide the change you wish to bring forward?

Closing Mantra:
When we become the embodied field, we add to the healing resonance of the world.

Resonance Rising Trilogy – Episode 2: Finding Peace in the Present

Healing happens now.

In Episode 2 of the Resonance Rising trilogy, Dr. Michelle Greenwell, CIH BioEW, is joined by Ann Smets and Ann-Marie Boudreau for a deeply compassionate conversation about presence, grief, coherence, and the healing power of sound.

When breath, body, heart, and awareness come into alignment, the nervous system begins to regulate, the body softens, and healing becomes possible.

This episode explores how peace is not passive—it is an active state of energetic and physiological coherence.

In this episode, we explore:
✨ What coherence feels like in the body
 ✨ How grief, emotional suppression, and stress create dis-ease
 ✨ The role of sound in emotional release and nervous system regulation
 ✨ Keening, wailing, and vocal release as healing practices
 ✨ Griefwork, palliative care, and compassionate presence
 ✨ The spiritual dimensions of death, dying, and transition
 ✨ Returning the body to balance through presence and sound

Enhance your Episode 2 listening experience with “Livin' the Dream” Vanilla Bean Green Matcha from the Cape Breton Tea Company—a heart-centred ritual to ground your energy, sharpen awareness, and invite coherence into the present moment. With each sip, remember: home is not a place we seek, but a presence we create through self-love, self-acceptance, and connection within.

This episode is a gentle invitation to meet yourself in the present moment and allow what needs to move… to move.

Closing Mantra:
When we become the embodied field, we add to the healing resonance of the world.

Resonance Rising Trilogy – Episode 1: You Are an Instrument

What if your body is not simply a body—but an instrument of resonance?

In Episode 1 of the Resonance Rising trilogy, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Ann Smets and Ann-Marie Boudreau for a powerful conversation exploring the body as a living field of sound, vibration, and intelligence.

Together, we explore how your thoughts, emotions, breath, and voice shape your energetic state—and how healing begins when we consciously tune the instrument of the self.

In this episode, we explore:
✨ The body as a resonance chamber
 ✨ The four principles of sound healing: Resonance, Frequency, Entrainment, and Intention
 ✨ How the nervous system responds to tone, rhythm, and harmony
 ✨ The healing power of the voice
 ✨ Vocal toning, chanting, tuning forks, singing bowls, and seed sounds
 ✨ Why healing begins by restoring harmony within

This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen inward, and remember: before we heal the world, we must first tune ourselves.

Begin your Resonance Rising listening experience with a mindful cup of 1713 Spring Tea in Louisbourg from the Cape Breton Tea Company, inspired by the fields around the Fortress of Louisbourg and infused with lavender and rose to calm the nervous system and open the heart. This simple tea ritual is an invitation into reverence, resonance, and the remembrance that nature already holds the frequency of healing. 

Closing Mantra:
When we become the embodied field, we add to the healing resonance of the world.

Facing Dementia: Episode 7
What if overwhelm isn’t the problem… but the message?

In this heartfelt and insightful episode of "Facing Dementia", Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes intuitive transformation mentor, author, and podcast host Laurin Wittig for a conversation that reframes overwhelm and procrastination through the lens of whole-person wellness.

So often, we label ourselves as procrastinators, lazy, overwhelmed, or incapable of getting things done. But what if those experiences are actually signals from the body, mind, emotions, and energetic systems asking us to pause, listen, and restore balance?

In this episode, we explore:
✨ Why overwhelm is a whole-system stress response
✨ How procrastination may be a signal—not a flaw
✨ The “Joy Calendar” and why scheduling joy first matters
✨ The difference between forcing action and moving in alignment with timing
✨ BioEnergetic Wellness tools to regulate stress and restore clarity
✨ Tea rituals for emotional support, focus, and energetic movement
✨ Why caregivers and those facing cognitive stress need compassionate self-care

🍵 **Featured Tea Ritual: Mintal ClariTEA – Harmony Blend**
This beautiful tea ritual supports clarity, calm, and forward movement with:
🌿 Peppermint – for momentum, focus, and energetic movement
🌼 Calendula – for clarity, healing, and emotional lightness
🍊 Orange Flowers – for optimism, calm, and gentle uplift

At the Greenwell Center, tea is more than a beverage—it’s a wellness ritual.

What happens when you take a break… not just from your routine, but from your illness identity?

In this heartfelt and uplifting episode of Facing Dementia, Dr. Michelle Greenwell and Laurin Wittig explore what it means to step away from the constant mental loops of diagnosis, healing protocols, and “what if” thinking — what we call the Illness Brain.

Following Laurin’s recent trip to Hawaii, this conversation is filled with laughter, insight, and powerful realizations about what becomes possible when we allow ourselves to simply be present, connected, and alive.

🌊 In this episode, we explore:

How stepping away from daily stressors helps calm the nervous system.
The science behind rest, relaxation, and “wellness vacations.”
Releasing the “monkey mind” — the constant thoughts, expectations, and pressure to fix or heal.
The importance of not losing yourself in a diagnosis.
How nature, awe, and connection expand identity beyond illness.
Bringing the feeling of peace and presence back into everyday life.

🐬 From swimming in the ocean, to finding whales and turtles, to standing in the presence of volcanic energy and connecting deeply with family — Laurin shares how these moments helped her rediscover herself beyond the diagnosis.

☀️ Tea Ritual Feature:
Bras D’Or Sunset — a blend infused with tangerine and safflower petals, inviting ease, warmth, and connection to building long lasting memories that will continue to shine well past the return to daily life. 

✨ Affirmation:
“Put yourself at ease as you center into the golden memories that rejuvenate and inspire you.”

This episode is a reminder that no matter what diagnosis you are facing — whether your own or a loved one’s —
you are still a person meant to live, experience joy, and thrive.

You are not your diagnosis.
You are still here to live your life.

🎧 Tune in for a conversation that will leave you feeling lighter, more present, and inspired to reconnect with yourself.

What if your symptoms weren’t a malfunction… but a message?

In this deeply honest and expansive episode of Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell, Michelle sits down with Christine Ruch, Holistic Transformation Guide and chef, to explore Nervous System Restoration and her 20-year journey healing Multiple Sclerosis naturally.

Christine shares how her path unfolded through whole food nutrition, nervous system repair, spiritual practice, plant medicine, deep self-inquiry, and a life-changing move from Colorado to Costa Rica. What began as symptom management evolved into something much deeper — a relationship with her nervous system rooted in safety, honesty, and alignment.

Together, they explore:
✨ What Nervous System Restoration really means
✨ Why healing may not be linear
✨ MS as communication rather than malfunction
✨ The role of subconscious patterns and emotional regulation
✨ Food as co-regulation and nervous system support
✨ How place, rhythm, and nature influence healing

This episode is accompanied by the Cape Breton Tea Company blend “To Be Honest”, centered on the affirmation:

“Coming back to my center creates a sense of honesty and integrity that brings everything into focus.”

With the gentle spiritual essence of lemon balm and orange blossom, this tea supports nervous system calm, emotional clarity, and heart-centered truth — the perfect companion for this conversation.

If you or someone you love is navigating Multiple Sclerosis, autoimmune conditions, or chronic stress, this episode offers a compassionate and empowering new paradigm for healing.

Episode 3 of the Trilogy— Purpose, Awakening & Living in Alignment

What if purpose isn’t something you chase… but something you remember?

In the final episode of our Spiritual Healing Trilogy, Dr. Michelle Greenwell and Ann Smets integrate the journey we began in Episodes 1 and 2 — moving from releasing the past, through understanding the quantum body, and into living awake, aligned, and present in everyday life.

This conversation explores awakening not as a dramatic event, but as a quiet returning. A returning to awareness. A returning to self. A returning to the truth that healing becomes less about striving and more about remembering who we already are.

✨ In this episode, we explore:

Purpose as a stabilizing force rather than a destination

Living with awareness in ordinary, everyday moments

Being “in the zone” and experiencing flow as a natural state of alignment

Releasing the shadow of the past so it no longer defines the present

How presence creates richness, vitality, and inner freedom

☕ Tea Ritual — 1713 Spring Tea, Louisbourg
We anchor this episode with a tea ritual featuring 1713 Spring Tea, highlighted by lavender and chamomile — herbs that calm the nervous system while gently awakening the heart. This blend reflects the spirit of spring renewal and invites a sense of joie de vivre — an awakening of passion for joyous living and the abundance of fresh energy.

Healing in this final chapter becomes integration. Awareness becomes embodiment. Purpose becomes lived experience.

🌿 This episode completes our trilogy and opens the doorway to our next series, where Ann joins Ann-Marie Boudreau to expand the conversation into spirituality and frequency — exploring how sound, vibration, and consciousness deepen our journey of discovery.

Carpal tunnel pain doesn’t just affect the wrist—it reflects patterns of tension, overuse, and imbalance throughout the arm, shoulder, and nervous system. In this mini podcast episode, Kate Montgomery shares how hands-on awareness and precise physical adjustments can help release chronic strain and restore functional ease to the arm, wrist, and hand.

Drawing from her extensive training in Touch for Health, HHP, and Naturopathic approaches (ND), Kate explains how muscle testing, energetic feedback, and structural support work together to address the root causes of carpal tunnel symptoms—not just the pain itself.

We also explore Kate’s background working with professional and elite athletes, where repetitive motion, high-performance demands, and injury prevention require refined, effective interventions. Her experience offers valuable insight for anyone dealing with wrist strain—whether from athletics, caregiving, desk work, or daily life.

This episode is for you if you’re curious about:

• Releasing tension patterns in the arm, wrist, and hand
• Understanding carpal tunnel through a whole-body lens
• How integrative, bioenergetic approaches support physical recovery
• What elite-level movement and injury prevention can teach us about everyday wellness

✨ A powerful conversation on listening to the body, restoring flow, and reclaiming comfort in your hands.

Episode 3 — Life in Color: The Synesthetic Experience Throughout Life
Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell featuring Ann-Marie Boudreau

What if sound had colour?
What if taste carried emotion?
What if memory lived in sensation rather than words?

In this final episode of The Power of Sound trilogy, Dr. Michelle Greenwell and Ann-Marie Boudreau explore synesthesia as a natural, multi-sensory way of experiencing life—where sound, colour, emotion, movement, memory, and touch weave together into a unified language of awareness.

Rather than something rare or mysterious, synesthesia is explored here as an innate human capacity—one that supports creativity, healing, healthy aging, and navigating life transitions with greater trust and presence.

In this episode, we explore:

• Synesthesia as sound-to-colour, taste-to-emotion, touch-to-memory
• How multi-sensory awareness quiets the analytical mind
• Reconnecting with body-based intelligence and intuitive knowing
• Listening with the heart, not just the ears
• Learning to trust subtle sensations as guidance
• How colour, sound, and frequency support emotional resilience and vitality throughout life

☕ Opening Tea Ritual — Kitchen Party (Natalie MacMaster Set)

As with every episode of Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell, we begin with an intentional tea ritual.

Kitchen Party is a vibrant purple tea celebrating connection, music, friendship, and shared joy.

Affirmation:
Lift your spirits by connecting music and friends in celebration.

🎧 Completing the Trilogy: The Power of Sound

This episode gently completes our three-part exploration:

The Power of Sound — how frequency affects the body viscerally

The Healer Within — the voice as medicine

Life in Color — synesthetic awareness throughout life

Listeners are invited to experience all three episodes as a complete journey into sound, voice, frequency, and embodied awareness.

Stay tuned for our upcoming trilogy:

Illness doesn’t just affect the body — it carries emotional weight.
Fear, anger, grief, uncertainty, and questions about the future often arrive long before any physical symptoms do.

In this episode of Facing Dementia, Dr. Michelle Greenwell and Laurin Wittig explore the importance of naming the hard emotions that accompany illness and the anticipation of dementia. Rather than pushing emotions aside, this conversation invites compassion, honesty, and gentle awareness as pathways to emotional and energetic healing.

💬 Laurin shares a profound insight offered by her aunt many years ago — a simple yet powerful mantra that has guided her through life and now supports her journey with a precursor to dementia.

☕ Tea Ritual Feature:
Releasing the Warrior — with anise and cardamom — a warming, grounding blend that supports emotional regulation, nervous system calm, and inner steadiness. Spiritually, this tea invites us to soften the armour we carry and reconnect with peace rather than constant vigilance.

🌀 In this episode, we also share:

How emotions like fear and anger affect the body and energy systems

Two gentle bioenergetic techniques to calm emotional intensity and restore peace of mind

Why emotional release is a critical component of long-term wellbeing when facing illness

Episode 2 — Healing and the Quantum Body: How Energy Creates Reality
A conversation with Ann Smets

Healing is not something we force — it’s something we remember.

In this episode of our Spiritual Healing Trilogy, Dr Michelle Greenwell, CIH BioEW is joined by Ann Smets to explore the quantum nature of healing and how our energetic awareness shapes the reality we experience in our bodies, our emotions, and our lives.

This conversation invites us beyond symptom management and into a deeper relationship with the quantum body — the energetic field that responds to intention, coherence, awareness, and presence. When we engage our spiritual side, healing shifts from “fixing what’s wrong” to discovering who we truly are.

✨ In this episode, we explore:

How energy precedes physical form

Why healing accelerates when we move beyond identity with symptoms

The role of consciousness, observation, and intention in the healing process

How spiritual awareness opens new pathways for self-regulation and vitality

Letting go of effort and allowing healing to unfold naturally

☕ Tea Ritual for Episode 2
As part of this conversation, we pause for a tea ritual featuring Golden SereniTEA from the Cape Breton Tea Company — a blend chosen to support inner listening, energetic coherence, and gentle awakening.
The ritual invites us to slow down, soften our focus, and enter the conversation not just intellectually, but energetically and spiritually.  We highlight the relationship of Bael Nut and Turmeric within this blend.

This episode is part of a three-part journey exploring healing through energy, awareness, and purpose, leading toward a deeper remembrance of self.

🌿 Episode 3 will complete the trilogy with a focus on purpose, awakening, and living in alignment.
You can learn more about Ann Smets at www.soulestara.com.  Her monthly gatherings to support discovering your spiritual side is exceptional, and you can work with her one on one through her special programming.

Who Is the Healer? The Voice as Medicine is our second part of the trilogy "The Power of Sound" featuring Ann-Marie Boudreau

In this episode, Dr. Michelle Greenwell continues the rich and resonant conversation with Ann-Marie Boudreau—sound doula, intuitive vocalist, classical pianist, and sound practitioner—by asking a profound question:

Who is the healer?

This episode explores the healing power of the human voice, not as performance, but as presence. Together, Michelle and Ann-Marie reflect on how voice becomes a pathway for self-regulation, emotional release, spiritual connection, and empowerment—inviting each of us to reclaim our role in our own healing journey.

☕ Opening Tea Ritual
As with every episode, we begin with an intentional tea practice. Episode 2 features The Autograph from the Natalie MacMaster Tea Set, accompanied by the affirmation:

“Each of us has unique gifts for others to treasure. Create your special signature for others to be inspired.”

This herbal blend highlights the spiritual essence of pumpkin and lemon—pumpkin offering nourishment, grounding, and gentle support, while lemon brings clarity, brightness, and renewal. Together, they reflect the individuality of the voice and the courage it takes to express our authentic sound in the world.

✨ In this episode, we explore:
• The voice as a healing instrument
• Sound as a bridge between body, emotion, and spirit
• How personal healing unfolds through self-expression
• Releasing the idea that healing lives outside ourselves
• Creating resonance, not perfection

This conversation weaves beautifully into themes of mental health, self-care, and community wellbeing, reminding us that when individuals are empowered, communities become healthier and more resilient—an essential foundation for Blue Zone living.

You can find Ann-Marie on YouTube: @ann-marieboudreau8570

Healing Through Spirituality | Episode 1

The Big Why — Spirituality Isn’t Woo, It’s Wiring

What if spirituality isn’t something extra you add to your wellness journey—but the foundation you were designed with?

In Episode 1 of Healing Through Spirituality, Dr. Michelle Greenwell and spiritual mentor Ann Smets open a grounded, heart-centered conversation about what spirituality truly means in the context of healing, resilience, and self-discovery.

This episode invites you to move beyond the physical, nutritional, mental, and emotional layers of wellness and explore the spiritual architecture that shapes how we heal, connect, and live with purpose.

☕ We begin with a tea ritual using SoulTEA Harbour, creating a gentle moment of arrival and presence.
Featuring the spiritual essence of licorice root (harmonizing, softening, restoring balance) and anise (clarity, intuition, expanded awareness), this ritual sets the tone for a deeper conversation about coming home to yourself.

In this episode, we explore:

✨ Why spirituality isn’t belief or dogma—but energetic wiring
✨ How disconnection from our inner guidance affects health and well-being
✨ The signs of spiritual dehydration and burnout
✨ Why healing deepens when we stop pushing and start listening
✨ How presence, coherence, and self-trust support true wellness

Affirmation from this episode:

“Balance and flow is possible when we open to be present for our true heart’s desires.
Come home to your heart.”

Reflection Practice (Homework):  A great way to connect to yourself.

Before listening to Episode 2, we invite you to gently explore:
• Where am I not listening to my inner knowing?
• What part of me is asking for attention or rest?
• What do I long for that I’ve been ignoring?

This episode is for anyone who feels there is more to healing than symptom management—more wisdom available when we include the spiritual dimension of who we are.

🎧 Listen, reflect, and reconnect.
✨ Episode 2 explores the Quantum Body and the energetic nature of healing.

What if sound is more than something we hear?
What if it is something we feel, embody, and become?

In Episode 1 of our Power of Sound trilogy, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by renowned sound practitioner, musician, and vocal influencer Ann-Marie Boudreau to explore how sound and frequency influence our physical, emotional, and energetic well-being.

Ann-Marie Boudreau is a classical concert pianist, multi-instrumentalist, intuitive vocalist, Sound Doula, Reiki Master, and composer whose life’s work explores the healing power of sound and voice. Trained in both Western classical traditions and East Indian music in Chennai, India, she bridges ancient wisdom with contemporary healing practices.

Through her sound journeys, bedside music, vocal toning, and intuitive improvisation, Ann-Marie creates immersive experiences that support emotional release, nervous system regulation, and spiritual connection. Her work spans hospices, hospitals, retreat centres, and sacred spaces, where she invites people to reconnect with their authentic voice as a pathway to wholeness.

Ann-Marie’s deep listening practice and compassionate presence reflect her understanding that sound is not something we perform—but something we become.

This opening episode invites you to dive deeply into:
✨ Why sound matters for personal health
✨ How vibration affects us viscerally and energetically
✨ The science and wonder of cymatics — seeing sound made visible
✨ How sound moves through the body, nervous system, and biofield

🍵 Opening Tea Ritual: Fit as a Fiddle (Natalie MacMaster Tea Collection)

As with every Be Well episode, we begin with a tea ritual.
Today’s tea is Fit as a Fiddle, an orange pekoe surrounded by herbs and flower petals from the Natalie MacMaster Tea Set.

This ritual invites you to:
🌿 Connect sound with intention
🌿 Feel resonance through breath, voice, and vibration
🌿 Open the body to harmony before the conversation begins

Music-infused, heart-opening, and grounding, this tea supports clarity, vitality, and joyful presence—preparing us to listen more deeply.

Steeping Into the New Year | Tea, Perspective & Community Healing

As we step into a new year, this episode offers a gentle pause—an invitation to steep rather than rush, to listen rather than push.

In this special New Year’s reflection, Dr. Michelle Greenwell explores how tea, ritual, and community connection support our innate healing potential. Using Highland Splendor tea and 1909 First Flight on Baddeck Bay, she highlights Lemon Verbena and Raspberry, as companions, as we reflect on how gaining perspective—like standing at the top of a mountain—allows us to see hidden possibilities, inner strengths, and new pathways forward.

This episode includes a guided tea meditation, a heart-centered affirmation, and reflective questions designed to help you begin the year feeling grounded, inspired, and connected—both to yourself and to others.

✨ From the top of the mountain, we are inspired.
✨ From a new perspective, we are empowered.
✨ From outside our usual selves, we discover the hidden jewels of who we are and where we want to go.

Welcome to Episode 3 in our Understanding Body Pain series, where we explore how pain is not just physical — it’s an important messenger from the body, biofield, and emotional system.
Today, we turn our attention to one of the body’s most significant communication centers: the spine and neck.

In this episode, we dive into:
✨ How the spine reflects our ability to feel supported, aligned, and adaptable
✨ Why neck pain often connects with fear of “what’s ahead,” decision overwhelm, or communication strain
✨ How organ systems, posture, emotions, and movement patterns shape spinal tension
✨ Simple Touch for Health tools you can use immediately to bring relief and restore energy flow
✨ Where pain patterns show up on the Ko and Shen cycles — and what that means for your well-being

Featuring:

💠 Why do neck issues often mirror emotional overwhelm?
💠 How can neurolymphatic reflex points & meridian tracing decompress spinal stress?
💠 What simple daily habits can reduce recurring tension?

Welcome to Episode 2 of our Understanding Body Pain trilogy, where we explore how the lower body communicates through pain—and how Touch for Health and BioEnergetic Wellness can help you uncover the real root causes.

In this episode, Dr. Michelle Greenwell is joined by Denise Cambiotti, HCD CIH BioEW, of www.muscletuners.ca and Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND as they guide you through the interconnected world of muscles, meridians, reflexes, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and posture. Pain rarely appears where it begins—plantar fasciitis, knee pain, hip tension, or ankle instability often stem from hidden imbalances that biofeedback can reveal.

We begin by standing together and noticing the 9 points on the feet—a simple but powerful checkpoint for body alignment. Throughout the episode, you’ll learn how the lower body compensates, how misalignment builds over time, and how muscle monitoring helps identify the true priority for healing.

Topics We Explore:

✨ How the lower-body meridians (including Bladder & Kidney) relate to muscle function
✨ The role of gait patterns and how walking reveals hidden imbalances
✨ How calf and foot tension are linked (including the deeper origin of plantar fasciitis)
✨ Hip misalignment and its downstream effects on knees, ankles, and feet
✨ Muscle monitoring for uncovering priority issues
✨ Stories from clinical practice and athletic performance
✨ Simple tools you can use today to restore balance

🍵 Tea Ritual – Lucky Dragon (Cape Breton Tea Company)

To support this journey, we share a tea ritual featuring Lucky Dragon, a green tea infused with grape leaves and rose petals.

🔍 Episode Highlights Include:

• Muscle-meridian-organ system relationships
• Alignment insights from athletes and active clients
• The Feet First System Foot Rub – Part 1
• Hip, knee, and foot interdependence
• Tools from Touch for Health for pain, posture, and strength
• Neurolymphatics, gait reflexes, and the power of grounding
• Muscle monitoring as a guide for emotional and physical release

If you missed Episode 1 (Hands, Wrists, Elbows), be sure to watch that next.
Episode 3 will explore neck and spine pain—the centerline of physical and emotional balance.

Welcome to the first episode of our new trilogy, Understanding Body Pain, where we explore how discomfort in the hands, wrists, elbows, and shoulders is often rooted in deeper patterns involving muscles, meridians, fascia, posture, and energetic flow.

Join Dr. Michelle Greenwell, Dr. Denise Cambiotti, DHC, and Kate Montgomery, HHP, ND, as they reveal how the upper body communicates through pain — and how simple bioenergetic wellness tools can provide clarity and relief.

🍵 Tea Ritual: Island VitaliTEA

We begin today’s episode with a grounding tea ceremony featuring Island VitaliTEA, chosen to energetically support pain release and emotional ease.

Cranberry
✨ A fruit of cleansing and renewal, cranberry supports circulation and gently eases inflammation.
✨ Spiritually, it helps dissolve stagnant energy and tension, creating space for natural healing to flow.

Green Tea
✨ Rich in antioxidants and polyphenols, green tea nourishes the body’s innate healing capacity and reduces oxidative stress.
✨ Spiritually, it brings clarity, balance, and calm — helping the system realign and release pain with ease.

Together, these ingredients remind us that healing begins with awareness, intention, and simple rituals that nourish body and spirit.

What happens when we move beyond the limits of the medical model and begin listening to the body’s wisdom?

In this inspiring first episode of our BioEnergetic Wellness Trilogy, Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell welcomes two pioneering voices — Kate Montgomery and Denise Cambiotti — to explore how simple, energy-based techniques can transform pain, restore function, and open the door to vibrant living.

Most people discover energy medicine only after they’ve tried everything else — when the medical system has no more answers. But what if true healing comes not from fixing symptoms, but from reconnecting with the body, mind, and spirit as one intelligent, living system?

Kate and Denise share their decades of experience using bioenergetic wellness tools, muscle monitoring, and frequency-based healing to help people shift pain, tension, and emotional blocks in just minutes. Their stories reveal that these techniques aren’t “woo woo” — they’re rooted in the physics, biophysics, and quantum principles of how energy flows through and around us.

As we sip Just Chill’n tea — a calming blend of black tea, cranberry, and calendula petals from the Cape Breton Tea Company — we explore the spiritual essence of relaxation, grounding, and illumination that parallels the healing journey itself.

💬 In this episode we discuss:

Why people often turn to alternative wellness after exhausting conventional approaches

The science behind muscle monitoring and energy flow

How emotional and physical patterns can release instantly through simple techniques

Real-life stories that show what’s possible when energy moves freely

The power of intention, touch, and awareness in creating lifelong change

Intuition through the Language of Dreams

In this second conversation of our three-part series, intuitive healer Delphine Rossi invites us to explore the hidden language of our dreams and the profound messages they carry. Dreams are more than fleeting images — they are portals into our subconscious, offering guidance, healing, and deep self-connection.

Together, we discuss:

• How your intuition speaks to you through your own unique dream language
• The varied intentions of dreams — from problem-solving to emotional processing
• Using dream journals and drawings to deepen your self-understanding and spiritual connection

We share insights, practical tools, and gentle encouragement for anyone wanting to tap into the wisdom of their dream world. Whether you’re new to dreamwork or already keeping a journal by your bed, you’ll leave with ideas for connecting more deeply with your inner guidance.

Featured Tea: Cape Breton Tea Company’s 1713 Spring Tea in Louisbourg, a blend with lavender and chamomile that supports peaceful rest, gentle release, and the kind of inward clarity that lets dream messages rise to the surface — the perfect companion for dream journaling and quiet morning contemplation.
