The enteric nervous system (aka your GUT) is known as our SECOND brain. The connection between the enteric nervous system & the cortical brain is known as the GUT - BRAIN AXIS. - Did you know our gut & our brain arose from the same embryonic cells before they moved apart in the body? The gastrointestinal tract is connected to your brain by the huge & hugely important vagus nerve, one of the largest nerves in the entire body. The enteric nervous system in humans consists of some 500 million neurons through the 9 meters of intestines, 0.6% of the number of neurons in the brain & 5x as many as the one hundred million neurons in the human spinal cord. The enteric nervous system also stores emotional conflicts for the brain to access when necessary & without the brain's processing capacity being bogged down by all the extra storage. These are our emotions that produce "gut" reactions that give us butterflies, make us worry, or prepare us to fight or run. That big visceral nerve embedded in your gut - the vagus nerve. Research has revealed that up to 90 percent of its fibers carry information from the gut to the brain, rather than the other way around. In other words, the brain interprets gut signals as emotions! Some 95 percent of your body's serotonin, that marvelous mood molecule that antidepressant drugs like Prozac keep in your body, can be found in the gut. So, it's no wonder that diet & mood are literally inseparable!

Happy New Year 🥳 Here’s an update on my upcoming Enso sessions over the next 4 weeks for those that are keen to level up and test their mettle. 💪🏽

Iridology is the study of the iris (the coloured part of the eye), revealing inherited strengths, weaknesses, and genetic predispositions. The patterns, fibres, and pigments in the iris provide insight into constitutional health and potential imbalances before symptoms appear. Sclerology is the study of the sclera (the whites of the eyes), reflecting current stress, congestion, toxicity, and inflammation in the body. The red lines, discolorations, and markings indicate imbalances in specific organs and systems, offering a real-time view of the body’s state of health. Behold the eyes, behold the body - Hippocrates (the "Father of Medicine") Reconnect you to your body’s innate wisdom—the part of you this is always guiding, communicating, and offering feedback through symptoms, signals, and sensations. "Our thoughts and emotions are not just fleeting experiences; they leave imprints on our physical bodies. Iridology and Sclerology serve as mirrors, reflecting these internal states and guiding us toward holistic transformation." More Than Meets the Eye—What Your Eyes Reveal The iris and sclera's ability to reflect the truth beyond perception. These sciences don’t merely show what we consciously think is the problem—they reveal what actually is. Often, they bring to light what we’ve suppressed, avoided, or disconnected from. The body, in its innate wisdom, keeps presenting the same themes until we pay attention. If we don’t listen, these unresolved issues may manifest in different parts of the body or escalate in intensity—even if other symptoms temporarily disappear. "True healing transcends the physical. By harmonizing our thoughts, emotions, and spiritual essence, we unlock the body's innate ability to heal and thrive." Rather than treating or masking symptoms, this work invites you to see them as meaningful feedback: messages from the body and soul urging you to realign with your highest values and authentic self. ​Iridology and Sclerology: A Deeper Connection​

Onyx Elite Performance Coach and my son @Kyan Gray displaying the physical aesthetics that can be acquired through consistent hard work, intelligent programming, performance nutrition and discipline. This is also reflective of what is modelled to you growing up. Yes he was exposed to all of the above in spades but ultimately he chose to take that path and is now reaping the benefits, that will undeniably permeate and serve him on many levels throughout his life. This requires awareness, choice, action and embodiment. Discipline Equals Freedom” is a system for life: short-term self-control creates long-term liberation. True freedom comes from self-mastery and structure. Every act of discipline is an investment in future freedom. Very excited to release our upcoming Level 5 on our app : Mobility, Strength Training, Energy Systems Programming 💪🏽. But without foundations leading into Level 5 you will be presented with an elusive pit of plateaus, misguided truths, confusion, propensity for injury, and disconnection from body, mind and soul.
