What it’s all for
Being there for your life
- At the dinner table, not somewhere in your head.
- With the grandkids, not half listening.
- In the conversation, not three steps behind it.
Hands up
Which of these have you had checked?
Your heart gets recorded. Your knee gets scanned. Your brain gets asked how you’re feeling.
Most hands drop at the last one. Most of what a brain needs, you can do without a test. That’s what the talk is about.
- Blood test
- Blood pressure
- Cholesterol
- Skin check and eyes
- How your brain is working
What a healthy brain is
Not calm. Flexible.
The health is in the moving, not the calm.
In the recording
One hour. Four moments.
02
Breathe. Watch a heart answer.
Six breaths a minute, breathing along with us, and a heart rhythm recorded in the clinic.
03
Five letters
What a brain actually needs. You’ll pick one.
04
The honest bit
Why movement can look like brain on the screen, and why reading one takes training.

You can’t order a brain to be healthy. You can give it the right conditions.

New book · Out now
The Un-Well Wellness Revolution
How the Race to Live Longer Is Stealing the Life We’re Living
Your watch grades your sleep before you’ve noticed how you feel. Your feed tells you which supplements you’re missing. After almost thirty years in practice, I see people bringing more scores into my clinic than ever, and more worry with them.
- Why a number on your wrist can drown out what your body is telling you
- Which popular supplements have good evidence behind them, and which don’t
- How your body repairs itself, and why trying harder can get in the way
Every chapter ends with Live it: a few small things to try in your own life. It isn’t a takedown of healthy living. It’s about getting back to how you feel, not what you score.
Links to both books are on the recording page too.
Good to know
Common questions
Does it cost anything?
No. It’s free, and there’s no obligation. Signing up opens the recording and lets us email you the link.
Is this personal advice?
No. It’s a general education talk. The demonstrations show how the equipment works, and the clinic stories are there to explain ideas, not to tell you what’s going on in your own brain. If you have a personal question, you’re welcome to book a consultation.
I’m not in Australia. Can I watch?
Yes, anyone, anywhere. It’s a recording, so watch it whenever suits you.
What do I need?
A computer, tablet or phone with sound, and a chair you can sit comfortably in for a few minutes of breathing along. It plays in your web browser, so there’s nothing to install.
How long is it?
1 hour 7 minutes, including questions at the end. You can stop and come back to it whenever you like.
Can someone watch with me?
Of course. Anyone can watch alongside you on the same screen. If they’d like their own link, they can sign up too.
Will there be an in-person seminar?
We’re planning one: a free community seminar at the Portarlington Neighbourhood House, the same talk in the room, with time to meet face to face, ask your questions directly and pick up a copy of either book. Tick the box when you sign up and we’ll let you know when it’s confirmed.
