Chinese medicine ideas that aren't completely crazy with Andrew Miles

Chinese medicine ideas that aren't completely crazy with Andrew Miles

Andrew is on the show again because I loved what he talked about last time! I have listened to every episode of his Botanical Biohacking podcast because he has an ability to explain Eastern medicine with Western vocabulary. 

Maybe you heard things like Chi from Tai Chi which means gas or energy which flows through the body. Turns out, there's something called gasotransmitters which send signals throughout the body. They just didn't have the Latin vocabulary for it!

Andrew talks about many philosophies behind his book EnlightenWeight, a book I absolutely loved! We talk about bringing your body back into balance based on the environment you are living in as well as the role of gasotransmitters in the body.

I really liked this episode which is the first in a series of 3 shows with different topics.


The Travel Wisdom Podcast explores the profound, lasting value hidden within our journeys. This isn't just about destinations; it's about how the languages we stumble through, the cultures we briefly inhabit, and the people we meet far from home fundamentally shape who we are and how we see the world. Host Ladan Jiracek draws from personal experience across more than eighty countries, examining how travel plants seeds of practical and personal wisdom that can grow into unexpected opportunities, deeper understanding, and even professional success. Each episode delves into the tangible lessons learned from foreign concepts, business practices, and social customs, arguing that the world is the most dynamic classroom available. Listeners will hear specific stories and reflections on turning global exposure into a tool for personal growth, improved communication, and a more nuanced approach to life and money. The podcast moves beyond the simple romance of wandering to consider how these experiences compile into a unique form of education, one that challenges assumptions and builds a resilient, adaptable mindset for navigating an interconnected world.
