MINDD Your Family – Houston we have a problem. Kim and Cyndi spent 3 days at the MINDD conference in Sydney and decided to do a podcast on what they learnt. Kim, Cyndi and Carren realise that what they do is impart knowledge to educate people to have choices to improve their life. It is the people who take that information and act not only for themselves but for their families that will have the greatest impact on healing. The most significant lesson learnt at MINDD 2015 was that education and change is imperative if we are to create healthy generations to come. Our children are in trouble in the past 10 years there has been an escalation in many child hood diseases, not so much infectious diseases but diseases of the immune system. Listen in on an incredibly emotional podcast that should be spread to young men and women planning on having a family.

Is this a true statement? Beauty is Pain. Really? Kim, Carren and Cyndi broach the subject of plastic surgery and why the trend is increasing in both males and females of all ages. The Up For A Chat girls don’t necessarily discuss the health aspects of the procedures but rather the reason why we enhance our bodies and faces on a psychological matter. There is a general consensus but the girls are perplexed by the extreme changes some people indulge in.

Many questions are asked on the Up For A Chat Facebook page, one recently was questioning taking THE PILL which then lead onto questioning medications, their short term and long term affects as well as what are other options. Kim Carren and Cyndi talk about their experiences through puberty and the availability of the pill, their nativity and their knowledge now. The discussion leads to the point that everything is up for question and to perhaps become informed and teach your children to become informed before taking on medications that may lead to infertility, increase in breast cancer or other side affects that are never discussed in the doctors office.

Astroturfing, or fake grassroots movements funded by political, corporate, or other special interests very effectively manipulate and distort media messages. Is this what is happening in the media today against homemade DIY baby formulas and the Paleo, Real Food Revolution. Have you heard that Vitamin A is toxic, and that bone broth has bone fragments, perhaps it’s astroturfing that is creating a phobia and public shaming that is based on frenzy rather then the truth. Listen in as Cyndi, Carren and Kim discuss the social bullying and how to know when media messages are distorted.
