George Wiseman discusses his extensive experience with Brown's Gas - a mixture of hydrogen, oxygen, and electrically expanded water - which he has been researching for over 40 years. HydrOxy, also known as Brown’s Gas, is what you get from a specific kind of electrolysis. Electrolysis is the process of splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity. George shares his journey with Brown's Gas, starting with a retired chiropractor's successful use of the gas in agriculture and for medical treatments in the 1990s. After initially dismissing health applications due to his combustion expertise, George began drinking Brown's Gas bubbled water in 2005 after his customers convinced him to try it, and he noticed improved health benefits. George explains that hydrogen deficiency is a key health issue caused by modern factors like antibiotics, glyphosate, and artificial sweeteners that damage the microbiome responsible for hydrogen production. He describes how hydrogen supplementation works through a "brick and mason" analogy, where hydrogen molecules need both intelligence and energy to be properly placed in the body. George clarifies that the therapeutic benefits come from hydrogen itself rather than pH levels, citing a 2007 study that confirmed health benefits disappeared when pH was maintained but hydrogen was removed.

This episode reveals the role of attention and mindset in athletic performance and broader life success. Dr. Justin Anderson shares how the brain's regulator can slow athletes down before physical limits are reached, and how training attention can help push through mental barriers. Key Takeaways Confidence is best understood as an output of behaviors and focused attention, not a goal to chase directly.Attentional training is the most powerful and trainable mental skill for consistent high-level performance.The brain has a natural regulator that slows performance before physical capacity is truly reached; training attention helps push through this.Identity-based discipline — "this is who I am" — is more sustainable than willpower-based discipline.Fears, insecurities, values, and personal attributes anchor or undermine attentional focus at high-pressure moments.The Intentional Attention (IA) Framework provides a structured cycle of intention setting, execution, reflection, and renewal.Cognitive load (rumination, negative self-talk) impacts physical recovery as significantly as physical load.Multitasking is largely a myth; the brain selects the most important input and shifts attention rapidly rather than processing two things simultaneously.These performance psychology principles apply equally to athletes, business executives, and everyday health behaviors.Dr. Justin Anderson is one of the nation's leading performance psychologists and has spent more than two decades helping professional athletes, executives, coaches, and business leaders perform at their best when the stakes are highest. His clients have included Hall of Famers, Olympic athletes, world champions, Fortune 500 executives, and teams across the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, WNBA, MLS, and NWSL. In his new book, Intentional Attention: The Science and Practice of Focus Under Pressure, Justin challenges one of the biggest myths about high performance: that confidence comes first. Instead, he explains why confidence is often the result of training your attention—and why so many capable people struggle not because they lack talent, but because they're directing their attention toward the wrong things.

It is important to manage our emotions and perceptions of other reactions during high-pressure situations. If we make a mistake or fail to deliver as we thought we should, we need to focus on what we can control in the moment - our emotional state, mental state, and immediate reaction. Key Takeaways Our feelings and perceptions during high-pressure situations are often more negative than reality warrants.Focusing on what we can control — our own performance and adjustments — is essential to maintaining confidence.Practice is not about achieving perfection; it is about learning how to adapt and adjust in the moment.Presentations, speeches, and athletic performances will never be 100% perfect, and that is normal and acceptable.Redirecting attention from uncontrollable external factors to internal capabilities leads to better outcomes.  Visit ConfidenceThroughHealth.com to find discounts to some of our favorite products.

The ego and subconscious mind function to protect individuals from mental and emotional pain, similar to how the subconscious prevents athletes from pushing beyond physical limits. Keith Crossley explores how avoiding fear and discomfort prevents growth. He explains that tolerating discomfort becomes easier with practice, creating a paradox where the more one learns to accept discomfort, the less uncomfortable it becomes. Keith shares personal anecdotes, like his experience with his father's illness, to illustrate the power of willingly facing painful emotions. He also touched on the universal fear of not being enough and how making peace with one's flaws is key to wholeness. Key Takeaways The subconscious mind exists to hide our deepest fears from conscious awareness, with the ego acting as a protective barrier between the twoMost human struggles originate in the subconscious, making analytical thinking alone insufficient for meaningful changeFear of not being "enough" and unworthy of love is the universal root fear underlying most behavioral patterns and protection mechanismsAvoiding pain and difficult emotions narrows the full range of human experience; learning to tolerate discomfort is paradoxically the path to greater freedom and joyHealing is not endless — it should have a defined start and finish, and involves bringing subconscious patterns into conscious awarenessBehavior change is only sustainable when addressed at the root level of beliefs and emotions, not just at the surface level of actionsTrue wholeness comes from integrating all parts of oneself — strengths and flaws alike — rather than outrunning insecuritiesLiving without psychological protection means being equally open to joy and pain, which ultimately produces greater freedom and alivenessKeith Crossley is a transformation specialist and spiritual teacher who believes that enlightenment – or freedom from pain, patterns, and the past – is for everyone.
