Speaker 2 (00:09):
Hello, and welcome to boost your brain power. I'm your host,
doctor Eric Kaplan. Now is the perfect time to get
into good habits. The best habit to begin is your
morning power hour. During the morning power Hour, you're gonna
get a lot of stuff done to start your day
(00:30):
off in a good way. The worst thing to do
is start your day off pressing the snooze alarm. That's
literally starting your day with a failure. So you set
an attention. I'm getting up at this time, and I
couldn't do it all right, so don't press the snooze.
I follow Mel Robbins and she does the five second rule.
(00:53):
See your alarm goes off and you count down five, four, three, two,
then you jump out of bed. Once you get out
of bed, it's pretty easy to get your day going.
But it's easy to stay underneath your covers, stay nice
and warm, relax a little bit. But nope, once you
(01:14):
set the alarm time to get up. The first thing
you should do every single morning when you wake up.
It's called oil pulling. What oil pulling is is where
you take coconut oil. All right, it's morganic coconut oil.
Swish it around in your mouth for thirty seconds. So
you swish it all around, it's called oil pulling, and
(01:36):
try and squeeze it in between aill, your teeth, use
your tongue, use a toothbrush if you need, but get
it all around your gums, your mouth, your teeth. What
coconut oil is a natural antibiotic, and it kills off
all your bead bacteria in your oral microbiome, the bad
(01:56):
bacteria much better than listerine or mouthwire that has alcohol,
because the alcohol kills off the good bacteria. And we
want good bacteria in our mouth. It's called oral micro biome, okay,
So we want more good bacteria and less bad bacteria.
So you're gonna do oil pulling for thirty seconds every
(02:19):
single morning, swish it around your mouth, and then spit
it out in the garbage. Don't put it in the
sink because that'll mess up your pipes. So just spit
it out in the garbage, and don't swallow it either,
because you don't want to swallow the bad bacteria. You
want to get rid of the bad bacteria. Okay, so
that's thirty seconds. Then right when you wake up, cold
(02:41):
water on the face, splash your face with cold water.
Then it's good to go to the bathroom, have a
bowel movement, urinate. Then I like to read part of
my book. So whatever it is, you can read one page,
that's all you gotta do. But at least it's something.
If you have time, read two pages, and if you
(03:03):
have even more time, read three pages. But every single day,
and hopefully it's like something that's helpful, like a self
help book or a motivational book, or a business book,
or a health book or a brain book, something that's
going to improve your health, your well being, your quality
of life. But you got to read every day, even
(03:25):
if it's just one page. But get in that habit
where every day you read something. And you got to
do a gratitude journal. And I don't care if it's
just write one thing. I'm grateful for a roof up
over my head. I'm grateful for food being in my refrigerator.
I'm grateful for clothes on my back. I'm grateful for
(03:48):
my spouse, for my kids, or my parents, or my
friends or my neighborhood, or my job, or my coworkers,
or the term I live in, or the city I
live in or the country I live in. Just be
thankful for something. Be grateful for your life, for your health.
Be grateful that you could see. I see lots of
(04:09):
blind patients in my office. Be grateful that you can hear.
There's lots of people that are deaf. Be grateful you
could walk, lots of people in wheelchairs. Stop taking for
granted stuff that will create your happiness. You know, I
heard this one interview and the guy asks the person
(04:33):
on the show. He says, hey, would you be happy
if they gave you ten million dollars? And the guy's like, yep,
I'd be very happy. Be hard for someone to get
you in a bad mood if I just give you
ten million dollars, And I goes, Yep, it'd be very
tough to get me in a bad mood after giving
me ten million dollars, I'd be really happy. But then
(04:53):
the interviewer goes, now, what if I gave you that
ten million dollars but you couldn't wake up next day?
And the guy goes, no, I wouldn't take that ten
million dollars if I couldn't wake up the next day.
And so the inviewer says, so what you're saying is
that waking up every morning is worth more than ten
(05:17):
million dollars. And the guy goes, yeah, I didn't even
think of that perspective. So it goes, why don't you
wake up every morning like you just won ten million dollars.
People don't do that. They don't wake up every morning.
He say, oh, I could see, I can eat, I
could pee, I could poop, I could walk, I could talk. Right,
(05:38):
they don't say that. They're not grateful for what you have.
You have to show gratitude. If you show gratitude, it's
very hard to be anxious, it's very hard to be stressed.
Show gratitude in your life. Every single morning when you
wake up, you at least write one thing and say
(05:59):
it out last out, I'm grateful, I have a dog,
you know, whatever it is, just be grateful for something
every single day. Right, So you wake up, you got
your oil pulling, got your cold water on your face,
have your bowel movement, go peep, read a page of
(06:20):
your book. Write at least one thing you're grateful for.
Then write at least one goal that you want to accomplish,
either that day, that week, or that year. I want
to get a raise, I want to make more money.
I want to lose five pounds. I want to get
bigger muscles. I want to learn a new language. I
(06:45):
want to learn how to play a musical instrument. I
want to have a better relationship with my wife. I
want to get my kid something nice. Just have a goal,
spend ten minutes with my son something. Have some goal
that you're going to accomplish, and then when you check
it off, celebrate the small wins. Those little check those
(07:06):
small wins. Those release dopamine. We like dopamine. But then
when you have long term goals, long term relationship, long
term health habits, then it builds serotonin. That's the mood stabilizer.
So we want dopamine and those quick hits. We want serotonin,
those long lasting neurotransmitters. We want oxytocin, the love hormone.
(07:32):
Start holding people's hands, start hugging people, kissing people. Human
touch is very important and I don't care if you
get it with the dog. Also pet a dog, puddle
with a dog, but have some sort of affection, have
some touch in your life. It's oxytocin, and you get
(07:52):
it from holding hands, you get it from hugging, you
get it from the sixth second kiss. From now on,
when you kiss your spouse in the morning, and hopefully
you do it instead of just kissing for one second,
kiss for six seconds. Then you release all those love hormones. Okay,
(08:13):
you could do it. You can get those endorphins going. Yeah,
that's when you go for a nice run that runners high.
Even a piece of dark chocolate could get the endorphins going.
Love relationships smiling, laughing. There's so many natural ways to
boost your brain. All right, getting back to the morning
(08:36):
power hour. Now it's time to meditate. And I don't
care if it's a thirty second meditation, but start meditating
every single day. I call it the relaxed technique. So
I start at the top of my head and I
say relax, and I relax all those muscles on the
top of my head. Then I say relax, and I
(08:57):
relax my forehead, and I say relax, and I relax
my temples. I relax my eyebrows, relax my eye lids,
relax my cheek, relax my jaw, relax my neck, my shoulders,
my back, my hips, my knees, go all the way
down to my toes. So I pick thirty spots. Each
(09:17):
spot is a second. It's a thirty second meditation. Each spot.
You're just saying relax, relax. Internally, it's called a mantra. Relax, relax, relax.
Everybody could do thirty second meditation. That's your power hour.
You do it every single morning. So I don't care
if you read one page of a book, do a
(09:40):
thirty second meditation, write one thing in your gratitude jenrenal.
Just do something every day. Do something every day to exercise.
I don't care if it's a ten second run down
your block. Just run down to the edge of your
block for ten seconds. But at leash you start breathing
a little heavy and your heart started beating and maybe
(10:02):
even a little sweat. But every day, do something active.
I don't care. If it's ten pushups, ten sit ups,
ten jumping jacks, a ten second run, ten second bike,
just do something. If you got thirty seconds, do thirty seconds.
If you got a minute, do a minute. If you
got five minutes, do five minutes. But minimum do ten seconds.
(10:22):
Don't say oh, I don't have time to do a
ten second jumping jacks. Everybody's got ten seconds. But do
something move your body every single morning before you leave
to do your errands, to go to work, to go
to school, take your kids, run, whatever you gotta do.
But do ten seconds of an exercise every single morning.
(10:45):
It's all about the consistency. And then get a meal. Prep.
Don't go your house without eating and without food prepped.
Because you want organic food. You want healthy food. You
want colorful food. You want sta full of dare and
sugar and cheese and cream and boxes and cans and bags.
You want stuff with all these oils. You don't want
takeout food. You want real food from the earth, fruits, veggies, nuts, eggs, fish, chicken, turkey,
(11:14):
real food from the earth. Stop eating all this processed
crap with food dies, artificial sweetness, artificial flavors. You want
one ingredient food. So prep every morning. If you do
all these things every morning, you food prep, You exercise
your gratitude, You read, write, you cold water on your face,
(11:35):
you oil pull, you go to the bathroom, You write
down in your journal, you write your goals down. Then
you are gonna conquer the day. But if you press
your snooze alarm and you sleep in. You start off
your day with a failure, so start doing the Morning
Power Hour so you could function better, feel better, and
(11:56):
live a better life. This is doctor Eric Aplan and

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Sitting is considered the new smoking. Harvard came
out with a study that showed sitting will kill you
(13:21):
just as quick as smoking. Now that doesn't mean start smoking,
because smoking will kill you, but sitting will cause obesity.
Sitting too much will cause depression, anxiety. Sitting too much
can cause diabetes, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease. Now I
(13:45):
don't want any of those. I want to prevent it.
So Luckily, my job is a job where I'm not sitting.
I'm not sitting at a computer all day. I'm walking
all day long. I'm working with patients, going to different rooms.
I'm running a business, always moving, moving, moving, moving, So
stop sitting. The worst thing you could do is sit
(14:07):
all day. Right, So you wake up and then you
sit at the breakfast table and you sit in the
car driving to work, or you sit on the bus
or the train commuting. Then you get to work and
you sit at the computer all day long. Then it's lunchtime,
Then you go to the cafeteria, sit at lunchtime. Then
(14:28):
you finish work, sitting all day at the computer again,
and you're done with work. Then you sit on the bus,
train or car again. Then you get home you sit
at the dinner table, and then you sit on the couch,
and it's the weekend. You sit at the bar, you
sit at the restaurant, you sit at the movie theater,
you sit at the play, sit at the musical, you
sit at the opera. Everything sitting, sit, sit, sit. Sitting
(14:53):
is the new smoking. You must follow the twenty rule.
The twenty rule is never sit for more than twenty minutes.
Set an alarm, get a cooking timer. Right now, I'm
writing a book, so after work, I do some sitting
(15:16):
at my computer, but I put an alarm for twenty minutes.
After twenty minutes and I hear the alarm, I finish
my passage, I finish my paragraph, I finish my chapter.
Whatever I'm doing, so it might be twenty twenty five minutes.
But then I get up for twenty seconds and I
walk twenty feet and I look twenty feet away. Or
(15:37):
you do twenty jumping jacks, do twenty sit ups, do
twenty pushups. I don't care what it is. Twenty lunges,
twenty squats, twenty pull ups, but move your body for
twenty seconds. Then you can go back to whatever you're doing,
(15:59):
whether you're working at the computer, you're watching TV, you're
reading a book, you're watching the Yankee game, don't care
what it is, but you get up every twenty minutes
for twenty seconds, move your body. You use it or
you lose it. The more you sit, the greater chances
(16:23):
of dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, covid,
lime disease, the flu, the depression, anxiety. They all are
aggravated by sitting. So you gotta set an alarm. Not
twenty minutes as quick. You're not gonna remember every twenty
minutes to get up, So you gotta set an alarm.
(16:47):
You gotta keep moving your body and get some exercise.
Find something that you like to do. I love Orange Theory.
It's this class where they do you go on the trail,
then you go on the rowing machine, and you do weights,
and you do the bosuit ball, then you do the
TRX and you do squats at the bed. So there's
(17:09):
all different types of exercises and every day it's a
different workout. The worst thing when people exercise, but they
do the same thing every week, same thing on Monday,
same body parts, same weights, same raps, same gym, same people. Okay,
exercise is good, but if you're doing the same exact
(17:31):
exercise every time, it's not good. Right, So maybe do
orange theory on Monday, then play basketball on Tuesday, then
go for a run on Wednesday, then go for a
bike ride on Thursday, and play soccer on Friday. Then
(17:52):
do high intensity interval training on Saturday, then do some yoga,
tai chi pilates on Sunday. Something like that, where every
day you're doing something different. You know. I like to
go to the gym, I like to do orange theory,
I like to play basketball, I like to go bike riding.
I like to play tennis. I like to play soccer.
So I love so many activities. Start loving stuff that
(18:16):
get your body moving. Could be a dance class. There
could be a zumba class. I've had patients do belly dancing,
hip hop dancing, pole dancing. I have seven year old
women patients that are doing pole dancing. They love it.
Get your body moving. I don't care if you're taking
salsa lessons or tango lessons. Do something fun, do something social,
(18:39):
use your brain, use your body, but keep that body moving.
Find activities that you like to do and maybe you
could do it with some young people. If you have
kids around you, take your dog for a run, throw
the ball. You don't have friends to play sports with,
you know, join a club, join a yoga class. You
(19:04):
know you'll meet people if you if you go every
morning to your yoga class, you'll make some yoga friends. Right,
But start choosing to do things that are more active,
and start choosing to do less things that are sedentary. Right,
Go for a hike, go camping, go rollerblading, go skiing,
(19:30):
go snowboarding, go sledding, go surfing, go boogie boarding, go swimming.
Do something that you like that it's not an erran
that's having fun, but moving your body. You have to
move your body and try and do weight resistant exercise,
(19:52):
not just aerobic aerobics where you run and you sweat
and your heart being going fast. But you want to
add aerobic You want to use your muscle. You have
a walking pharmacy inside your muscles, but you need resistance.
So even if you walk every day, that's not getting
weight resistant exercises. When you do weight resistant exercises, it
(20:17):
deposits happiness chemicals in your brain. So not only will
you get stronger and more fit, but you'll get in
better mood. You'll get better memory, better focus, more energy,
better sleep, better digestion. So start lifting weights, whether it's bars, dumbbells,
(20:45):
I don't care what it is. I don't care if
you just take a grocery bag and start doing bicep
curls with that. But start doing weight resistant exercise and
you could do your own body weight like push ups
or pull ups, stuff like that. So you don't necessarily
need any fancy equipment. You don't need a gym membership,
(21:06):
but you need weight resistant exercise. You might have to
maybe get some bands. Those are good too, so you
can do everything at home if you need to. When
they closed the gyms, I went in my backyard and
I st do weight resistant exercises with big rocks and
big branches and trunks of trees, and you know, I
used nature outside to be my weight resistant exercise. I
(21:29):
just ran down to my local elementary school and I
used the jungle gym as my pull up bars. And
you know, you can always find stuff outside to work
out with, all right, so there's never an excuse. Oh,
(21:50):
I get home and my gym's already closed. Okay, you
could do it at your own house. You don't need
any fancy equipment. Stop using excuses. Should never be an excuse,
but is the worst word in the human dictionary. Stop
using butt, start doing, Start taking action. You want your
(22:16):
heart beating fast, you want sweating, You want your muscles
getting bigger, and you gotta make progression. If you've been
doing weights with five pounds, time to go up to
ten pounds. If you've been doing ten pounds, time to
go up to fifteen pounds. If you're doing fifteen pounds,
time to go up to twenty pounds. You have to
make progress. Stop using the same weights every time. It
(22:37):
loses its effect. And if you don't increase weights, Let's
say if you're using fifteen pound weights and you do
ten reps, now you do eleven reps. If you're doing
push ups and yesterday you did fifteen pushups, today you're
gonna do sixteen push ups. If you went for a
(22:59):
walk and walk the mile, today, you're gonna walk one
point two five miles. You have to make progression. If
you did one pull up yesterday, do two pull ups today.
I don't care if you increase one percent, but just
(23:20):
increase your load, Increase your reps. Increase your weight, increase
your speed, increase your time. Just increase something. Make some
progression while working out. If you play basketball and you
made three shots in a row, now you can't leave
(23:40):
the court until you make four shots in a row.
Make progress. Your mood will be more stable when you
make progress. Stop doing the same thing every day. That's
the worst thing for your brain. Don't be a creature
of habit. You have to switch it up. The brain
(24:02):
loves new things. There's nothing more important for the brain
than novelty. Do you want to prevent Alzheimer's dementia? Start
thinking novelty, Start doing new things, meet new people, go
to new places, do new exercises. Stop sitting down, working,
(24:26):
eating and watching Netflix every day. Stop scrolling on Facebook
and going on YouTube and TikTok every day. Switch it up.
You have to do new things. Stop being a creature
of habit and start doing new things novelty every day.
(24:48):
It could be just starting to brush your teeth with
your left hand, but do something new every single day
so you function better, feel better, and live a better life.
This is doctor Eric Caplan and you're listening to boost
your brain power.
Speaker 3 (25:05):

energy depression, anxiety, dizziness, balance, vision, headaches, brain fog, weight loss,
or simply want to maximize your human potential and prevent
future diseases that this is the show for you. Don't

you will learn natural, integrative, and holistic approaches to modern
day medical problems such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's stroke, autism, add concussion,
autoimmune diseases, insomnia, fibromyalgia, vertigo, migraines, four posture pain, TBI,
skin and digestive problems. Doctor Caplin is most famous for
getting to the root cause of a wide variety of
(25:47):
brain and health conditions, rather than treating symptoms with traditional
medicines and risky surgeries. To contact doctor Kaplin, you can
call his team at two oh one two six one
two one five zero or visit his website at kaplindc
dot com.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power now as we start the new year. Not
only do we want to improve our physical activity, but
(26:25):
we got to improve our mental activity. Right, so people
in the beginning of the year, they start getting a
little bit motivated and say, Okay, I'm gonna go to
the gym, I'm gonna exercise a little bit more, I'm
gonna eat a little bit healthier. I'm done with my
Christmas cookies and all my holiday parties and all the
(26:46):
Thanksgiving meals and all the alcoholic drink. So now it's
time to start the new year fresh. But we talk
about exercising new Nobody really talks about your mental stability
(27:06):
or your brain power, right, So how about this year
we start strengthening our brains. I find it interesting that
every day people shower every day, people brush their teeth,
every day, people wash their hands like without even thinking
(27:32):
about it. It's just natural habits. But do they exercise
their brains every day. No, In fact, it's the exact opposite.
Most adults stop using their brains. Right once you're done
with high school or college, they say, oh, I'm done learning,
(27:56):
and they stop reading. Stop learning new subjects, learning new languages,
stop learning musical instruments, I'm learning arts. Stop learning history,
stop learning science and math. Why don't we continue that
as we get older? Why don't we continue to learn
as we get older. But people don't do that. They
(28:18):
just like to complain and say, uh, my memory's getting worse.
I'm just getting older. Wrong, that's a lie. Don't believe
the lie. And doctors will tell you that. My patients
will complain, Uh, my memory is not as good as
it used to be. I guess I'm just getting older,
(28:40):
and doctors just accept that. Well, I do not accept that.
I'm a brain expert. I've seen over one hundred thousand patients.
I've read thousands and thousands of research articles. I know
what proves your brain function so that your memory could
(29:03):
get stronger as you get older. But you gotta do
the work. You gotta put in the effort. You have
to learn new things, and I don't care what it is.
You know. I had a patient a few months ago.
They said they were inspired by my radio show and
(29:23):
they decided to learn how to play the harmonica. I said,
that's great. Harmonica is very cheap, very easy to use.
You know, you could carry it around wherever you go.
It's very small, it's not too loud or it's gonna
oil your neighbors. But it's a musical instrument that you
(29:43):
could learn. And that's gonna stimulate your brain. Learn some
new exercises. All right, when you go to the gym,
just don't do your you know, your leg presses and
your bench presses and your bicep curls and your squats
and lunges. Aren't learning different exercises different activities. I like
(30:04):
to use every single machine in the gym. I like
to go to Orange Theory, where every day it's a
new class. I like to play basketball, where I'm going
left and right and up and down and backwards and
sprinting and jogging and walking and doing every activity. Same
thing with soccer, left and right and up and down
(30:25):
and backwards and sideways. Same with tennis. Those are the
sports that I play. We're going up and down and
left and right right. Baseball it's the same thing every time.
Golf it's the same thing every time. Those are not
good sports for you. The racket sports are the best.
They did research on which activities create the healthiest, longest lifestyle,
(30:53):
and it's racket sports. And this was even before pick
a ball was popular. So tennis is numberumber one. Racketballs
up there, even ping pong. It's that hand eye coordination.
You're moving all directions you got to go have a
good response time. Another good sport is swimming. I'd say
(31:14):
racket sports are the best. Swimming a second, Rowing is third.
But the most important thing is to do stuff that's fun.
Have some fun, but do new things. Take a tango
lesson if you've never learned tango. Learn how to play
the drums. If you've never learned how to play the drums,
(31:35):
learn some mandarin. You've never learned mandarin. Start learning new things,
maybe stuff that's useful. If you want to keep your
brain strong, you gotta keep learning new things. Learn how
to change a tire, Learn how to make a fire,
Learn how to filter water, learn how to cook, to
(31:56):
make a new meal, learn how to put up a shelf.
Learn how to make a desk. Learn how to garden.
Learn how to plant food. Learn how to raise chickens.
Start getting out of your comfort zone. If you want
your brain to get stronger, you have to do things
(32:17):
that is not used to doing. And the worst thing
is retirement. People say, oh, I can't wait to retire. WHOA, No,
I think that's not good. You don't want to retire
because then you're gonna stop using your brain. Now you
don't have to necessarily be in the job that you're
currently in for the rest of your life. So you can,
(32:40):
you know, retire from one job, but then you got
to take on a new job, or you got to volunteer,
or you got to help somebody else, or you got
to do a new hobby, or you got to join
a new club, or you gotta have a new meetup.
You got to travel to new places. You don't want
to just retire and then sit on the couch watch
it Netflix, scrolling on Facebook. That is a recipe for disaster.
(33:08):
So you got to do new things. You got to
go to new places. You got to meet new people.
You gotta do new activities that's novelty, new language, new
musical instruments, new dances, read new books, new subjects. Get
(33:28):
out of your comfort zone. You have to be uncomfortable.
If you're not uncomfortable, you're not doing right. Complacency will
kill your brain. You need challenge. You need to think.
If you don't like numbers, start doing Sudoku. If you
(33:52):
don't like letters, start doing the crossword puzzo. Just do
something out of your comfort zone. You don't like to run,
just sprint to the end of the block. You don't
like to dance, take them a range lesson, get a
(34:12):
little uncomfortable, push yourself a little bit more than you're
used to. Your brain needs challenge, your body needs challenge,
and maybe it could be at work. Take on a
new project, maybe get a new client that's gonna really
(34:36):
make you challenge that's gonna really work you good. Not
to the point where you get stressed. Because stress is
the silent killer. So you got to do something that
makes you uncomfortable. But you're okay with failure. The best
way to succeed is to fail many times so that
(34:58):
you can learn from your mistakes. But if you don't
take action, then you won't fail. If you never try,
then you won't fail. The more you fail, the more
successful you'll be. Right, you could fall down, but you
gotta get up. Failure is good because that means you're
trying stuff that's hard for you. So you have to
(35:21):
get out of your comfort zone all the time. Get
out of your comfort zone. Be resilient. Right, if it's
cold outside, hey, go outside for thirty seconds and your
short's and your t shirt. If it's hot outside, go
outside for a minute and a hat and gloves and
a winter coat. Challenge yourself. Don't eat every time you're hungry,
(35:45):
Don't drink water every time you're thirsty. Don't put on
the heat every time you're cold. Don't put on the
air conditioner every time you're hot. Don't go to sleep
every time you're tired. You gotta sell for a little bit.
Suffer makes your brain stronger, makes you more resilient so
you can handle the stress. Because you're never gonna get
(36:08):
rid of stress. There's always gonna be stress in your life.
But can your brain and body be strong so it
can handle the stress, so you could be more resilient,
so it doesn't cause anxiety, doesn't cause panic, doesn't cause
heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure. You gotta be more resilient.
(36:29):
But get out of that comfort zone. Visit a new place,
go to a new restaurant, and everyone's always gone to
the same restaurant they like, ordering the same food, cooking
the same meals every week. You need variety. You need
variety in food as well. Eat all the colors of
the rainbow. So you need a writing exercise. You need
(36:50):
the writing food, You need the writing education, You need
the writing charity. Variety in your friends, variety and your activities,
varieting in the places that you leave. You need variety, reading, novelty.
You need to do new things. That way you'll function better,
(37:12):
feel better, and live a better life. This is doctor

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Now right Now, a lot of people are
dealing with a lot of stress, emotional stress, anxiety, panic,
People's minds racing a million miles per hour. They're worried
(38:41):
about the holidays, worried about the family, end of the year, taxes, money,
getting everything done, job, relationships. There's lots of stresses now.
There are many ways to reduce emotional stress. If you
have anxiety, the first thing you need to do is
(39:03):
leave the room, right, So if you're stressed, just leave
the room. If you're angry, it's okay to be angry
and take that five minutes and yell or scream or
cry or get frustrated, but then you gotta get over it.
Then you gotta move on, So leave the room. It's
(39:25):
hard when you're getting stressed and anxious to say, okay,
calm down, relax, everything's gonna be okay. It's not that
big a deal. That usually doesn't work. I'm sure you
guys have tried it. It's not usually successful. But let's say,
you know, I just had a little disagreement with my wife.
(39:47):
What I did, I said, Okay, I'm just gonna leave.
So instead of fighting and arguing when I'm emotional, I'm
just gonna say, hey, I gotta take a break to
go upstairs for a few minutes. All right, Then you
come back calm, cool and collected. Then you're not too
emotional because we don't make good decisions when we're emotional.
(40:10):
So the more emotional you are, the less logical you'll become,
and then you'll say things or do things that are
not appropriate. So if you're really stressed and anxious, leave
the room, do something new, change the subject. Go outside
for a walk, go to the kitchen for a glass
(40:31):
of water, go upstairs and listen to some music. You know,
do something to distract you from the current thing that's
stressing you out. The key for anxiety is distraction. The
key for depression is progression. The key for memory is novelty.
(40:59):
So we got to follow these suggestions. So next time
you get anxious, you leave the room, maybe go to
the bathroom and do some stress relieving activities. For example,
gargling that stimulates your vagus nerve. That's gonna decrease stress
(41:20):
and anxiety. But when you gargle, you gotta goggle really intensely.
The louder the gurgle, the better. So you gotta wake
your neighbors up, like I want you to gurgle so loud.
Do it in the shower where you can like be
messy and shoot up for the ceiling, and you want
your neighbors by what noises are coming out of that
(41:40):
guy's house. Then you know you're gargling really intensely. And
if you start choking, gagging, coughing, then you know you're
really doing it right. That's actually beneficial. So gagging, coughing,
and choking all stimulate the vagus nerve, which you're going
to help you reduce your stress. So you got a
(42:00):
gargle really really intensely, really loud for thirty seconds, three
times a day to help prevent stress and anxiety. Old
water on the face that reduces stress. Do it first
thing in the morning, right when you get up during
your power hour. Then do right before bed cold water
(42:23):
on the face. To get a good night's sleep, you
have to be cold. And you guys probably notice what
do you think it's easier to sleep if the room's
really cold or if the room's really hot. Always much
easier to sleep when the room's really cold. So sleep naked,
be cold. Splash your face with cold water right before bed,
(42:44):
keep the temperature cold, open up that window, keep it cold.
That gets a deep sleep. Cold reduces stress anxiety. When
you have anxiety, you're overheated, you're on fire, you're in flame.
(43:04):
Your brain's going over and over and over again. We
gotta cool you down. The best neuroscience has proved is
dipping your head or your face in a bucket of
ice water that's fifty degrees fahrenheit. I've seen it live
(43:25):
with my patients. People coming in with panic attacks, tachycardia,
the heart's beaten, you know, one hundred and ninety beats
per minute, and then we dip their head in ice
water and immediately the tachocardia, the fast heart rate goes
down to sixty beats per minute within a minute. That's
how powerful dipping your face in ice water is. No obviously,
(43:52):
take time to breathe, but if having stress, if you're
having panic, if you're having anxiety, cold water on the
face will help to cool you down. Another thing you
could do is called the tragus ear rub. The tragus
is this little flap on your inner ear, like when
you're trying to you know, the fire engines really loud,
(44:14):
and you want to cover your ear drum. You take
that tragus and you cover your ear so you don't
hear it. That's the trage, is that little flap that
covers your ears. So what you do is you rub.
You just take your two fingers and you rub it.
Not too hard, but that helps to relax your nervous system.
In fact, I've had patients pierced that part of their
(44:35):
ear and it's reduced their anxiety, reduced their migraines, reduces
their stress, their panic, their ADHD. So this tragus is
very powerful. Gargling can be very powerful. Cold water on
the face can be very powerful. The tragus ear rub
can be very powerful. Another good thing to do is
(44:58):
a breathing exercise. Now to relax your nervous system. You
always want to exhale longer than you inhale. Inhaling stimulate
your heart. That's gonna make your heart go faster, it's
gonna increase. Exhaling relaxes your nervous system. Therefore, the neuroscience
(45:19):
has showed the best way to breathe to relax your
nervous system is to inhale for four seconds, then hold
your breath for seven seconds, then exhale for eight seconds.
So to repeat inhale for four seconds, hold your breath
for seven seconds, and exhale for eight seconds. And if
(45:43):
you can rub your face at the same time, even
more effective. And when you rub your face, there's three
spots you want to rub to relax your nervous system.
You go from your forehead to your ear, then you
go from your cheek to your ear, Then you go
from your chin to your ear. So you do little
soft strokes on your face at the same time of
(46:04):
doing your inhal for four seconds, hold your breath for
seven seconds, and exhale for eight seconds. So those are
always to reduce anxiety, stress, panic, overheated, over firing. Right,
so we get those hot flashes, get those night sweats,
(46:25):
you get those panics. Then we need to do your
neurologic exercises. We're gonna get you out of that fight
or flight mode into a more relaxed rest and digest.
So we want to get rid of your increase sympathetic tone,
which creates more stress, and then work on your power
sympathetic nervous syste which is gonna get you in a
(46:47):
more relaxed state. Now, how do you know which parts
of your brain are functioning well? And which parts of
your brain are not functioning well. The best test is
called a q EEG brain mapping, and for this test,
you wear a cap that has electrodes attached to it.
Now there's no radiation, there's no pain, super quick, there's
(47:10):
no contrast fluid, you don't have to sit in some
claustrophobic tube. Super quick, super easy, non invasive. If it's
called a q EEG brain mapping, and it measures your
alpha brain waves, which is how you normally are. It
measures your beta brain waves, which is when you gonna
really think and focus. It measures your beta brain waves
(47:34):
when you're just kind of daydreaming in la la land.
And then it measures your delta, which is when you're
sleeping and a relaxed state. But based on the location
of the abnormal brain waves, it's gonna tell us which
parts of the brain are functioning well and which are not.
It's you gonna tell us do you have anxiety, do
you have depression? Do you have short term memory loss,
(47:54):
long term memory loss, working memory problems? Do you have
troubles with focus? Do you have troubles shifting techy? Do
you have troubles motivation organization? Do you have energy problems.
Do you have sleep deprivation? Do you have insomnia? Do
you have sensory problems, vision problems, hearing problems, dizzyness, headaches?
Do you have problems with dopamine acetylcholine? Do you have
(48:17):
having metal poisoning? Do you have a concussion. Do you
have a thyroid problem. Do you have an intestinal inflammation?
Do you have white matter inflammation in your brain? Do
you have toxic stress? The qEEG Brain Mapping literally picks
up all of this. It's an amazing test. It's my
favorite test. It's normally five hundred dollars, but for the
(48:38):
first seven people to call their text or email, you
could get this qEEG brain mapping for only twenty one dollars.
There's another gift we're gonna give. It's called a VNG
Video nostography, And this is where you wear these goggles
and they have infrared cameras on them and they measure
eye movements left and right and up and down and
(49:00):
dark and light and fast and slow. And based on
this we could tell which areas the brains are overactive
and which air the brains are underactive. If you're overactive,
you're gonna get panics. You're gonna get anxiety, you're gonna
have ADHD, you're gonna have insomnia, you have your mind racing,
you're gonna be stressed out. And you got a muscle
tension and pain and joints and all this stuff. Autoimmune disease, hashimotos, siliac, chogrins,
(49:26):
soriatic arthritis, rheumatoid. This is all from an overactive brain.
The VNG picks this up, or it picks up if
you have an underactive brain lethargy, you have fatigue, you
have poor memory, poor focus, you can't think, you have
brain fog, you have low energy, you're just dragging it around,
(49:49):
you can't think. This is if you're underactive. The VNG
will pick this up. And this helps us because we
gotta know is the right underactive, because then we're only
gonna do exercise on the left side. Is the left overactive,
then we got to do relaxation for that time, So
the VNG picks that up. This test is also normally
five hundred dollars, but for the first seven people to
(50:11):
call a text or email you can get this test
for only twenty dollars. Twenty one dollars as well, and
the last and third test is a one on one
with me. And what I'll do is go over your
brain mapping, the QEG. I'll go over your VNG, We'll
go over your blood work. We'll do a memory test.
We'll check out your heart, your lungs, your gut. Will
check out your range, emotion, your balance, your coordination, your posture,
(50:35):
how you walk, how you see, how you hear. We'll
go over a complete physical and neurological evaluation. That's also
normally five hundred dollars, but for the first seven people
to call, text or email, you could get that test
for only twenty one dollars. Now most people want to
do all three. You could do all three, a twenty
one dollar brain mapping, a twenty one dollar VNG, and
(50:58):
a twenty one dollar one on one with me. You
could do one, you could do two, or you could
do all three. Just call, text or email. The phone
number is six four six two two one six seven
three eight. The email is info at caplinbraininbody dot com. Again,
the phone number is six four six two two one
(51:21):
six seven three eight. You could call or text. You
can email info at Caplinbrainbody dot com just telling me
you want to be the first seven people to do
all three tests for twenty one dollars each. Because you
just listen to the Boosh Your Brain Power radio show.

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Hello, and welcome to boost your brain power. I'm your host,
doctor Eric Kaplan. Now is the perfect time to get
into good habits. The best habit to begin is your
morning power hour. During the morning power Hour, you're gonna
get a lot of stuff done to start your day
(00:30):
off in a good way. The worst thing to do
is start your day off pressing the snooze alarm. That's
literally starting your day with a failure. So you set
an attention. I'm getting up at this time, and I
couldn't do it all right, so don't press the snooze.
I follow Mel Robbins and she does the five second rule.
(00:53):
See your alarm goes off and you count down five, four, three, two,
then you jump out of bed. Once you get out
of bed, it's pretty easy to get your day going.
But it's easy to stay underneath your covers, stay nice
and warm, relax a little bit. But nope, once you
(01:14):
set the alarm time to get up. The first thing
you should do every single morning when you wake up.
It's called oil pulling. What oil pulling is is where
you take coconut oil. All right, it's morganic coconut oil.
Swish it around in your mouth for thirty seconds. So
you swish it all around, it's called oil pulling, and
(01:36):
try and squeeze it in between aill, your teeth, use
your tongue, use a toothbrush if you need, but get
it all around your gums, your mouth, your teeth. What
coconut oil is a natural antibiotic, and it kills off
all your bead bacteria in your oral microbiome, the bad
(01:56):
bacteria much better than listerine or mouthwire that has alcohol,
because the alcohol kills off the good bacteria. And we
want good bacteria in our mouth. It's called oral micro biome, okay,
So we want more good bacteria and less bad bacteria.
So you're gonna do oil pulling for thirty seconds every
(02:19):
single morning, swish it around your mouth, and then spit
it out in the garbage. Don't put it in the
sink because that'll mess up your pipes. So just spit
it out in the garbage, and don't swallow it either,
because you don't want to swallow the bad bacteria. You
want to get rid of the bad bacteria. Okay, so
that's thirty seconds. Then right when you wake up, cold
(02:41):
water on the face, splash your face with cold water.
Then it's good to go to the bathroom, have a
bowel movement, urinate. Then I like to read part of
my book. So whatever it is, you can read one page,
that's all you gotta do. But at least it's something.
If you have time, read two pages, and if you
(03:03):
have even more time, read three pages. But every single day,
and hopefully it's like something that's helpful, like a self
help book or a motivational book, or a business book,
or a health book or a brain book, something that's
going to improve your health, your well being, your quality
of life. But you got to read every day, even
(03:25):
if it's just one page. But get in that habit
where every day you read something. And you got to
do a gratitude journal. And I don't care if it's
just write one thing. I'm grateful for a roof up
over my head. I'm grateful for food being in my refrigerator.
I'm grateful for clothes on my back. I'm grateful for
(03:48):
my spouse, for my kids, or my parents, or my
friends or my neighborhood, or my job, or my coworkers,
or the term I live in, or the city I
live in or the country I live in. Just be
thankful for something. Be grateful for your life, for your health.
Be grateful that you could see. I see lots of
(04:09):
blind patients in my office. Be grateful that you can hear.
There's lots of people that are deaf. Be grateful you
could walk, lots of people in wheelchairs. Stop taking for
granted stuff that will create your happiness. You know, I
heard this one interview and the guy asks the person
(04:33):
on the show. He says, hey, would you be happy
if they gave you ten million dollars? And the guy's like, yep,
I'd be very happy. Be hard for someone to get
you in a bad mood if I just give you
ten million dollars, And I goes, Yep, it'd be very
tough to get me in a bad mood after giving
me ten million dollars, I'd be really happy. But then
(04:53):
the interviewer goes, now, what if I gave you that
ten million dollars but you couldn't wake up next day?
And the guy goes, no, I wouldn't take that ten
million dollars if I couldn't wake up the next day.
And so the inviewer says, so what you're saying is
that waking up every morning is worth more than ten
(05:17):
million dollars. And the guy goes, yeah, I didn't even
think of that perspective. So it goes, why don't you
wake up every morning like you just won ten million dollars.
People don't do that. They don't wake up every morning.
He say, oh, I could see, I can eat, I
could pee, I could poop, I could walk, I could talk. Right,
(05:38):
they don't say that. They're not grateful for what you have.
You have to show gratitude. If you show gratitude, it's
very hard to be anxious, it's very hard to be stressed.
Show gratitude in your life. Every single morning when you
wake up, you at least write one thing and say
(05:59):
it out last out, I'm grateful, I have a dog,
you know, whatever it is, just be grateful for something
every single day. Right, So you wake up, you got
your oil pulling, got your cold water on your face,
have your bowel movement, go peep, read a page of
(06:20):
your book. Write at least one thing you're grateful for.
Then write at least one goal that you want to accomplish,
either that day, that week, or that year. I want
to get a raise, I want to make more money.
I want to lose five pounds. I want to get
bigger muscles. I want to learn a new language. I
(06:45):
want to learn how to play a musical instrument. I
want to have a better relationship with my wife. I
want to get my kid something nice. Just have a goal,
spend ten minutes with my son something. Have some goal
that you're going to accomplish, and then when you check
it off, celebrate the small wins. Those little check those
(07:06):
small wins. Those release dopamine. We like dopamine. But then
when you have long term goals, long term relationship, long
term health habits, then it builds serotonin. That's the mood stabilizer.
So we want dopamine and those quick hits. We want serotonin,
those long lasting neurotransmitters. We want oxytocin, the love hormone.
(07:32):
Start holding people's hands, start hugging people, kissing people. Human
touch is very important and I don't care if you
get it with the dog. Also pet a dog, puddle
with a dog, but have some sort of affection, have
some touch in your life. It's oxytocin, and you get
(07:52):
it from holding hands, you get it from hugging, you
get it from the sixth second kiss. From now on,
when you kiss your spouse in the morning, and hopefully
you do it instead of just kissing for one second,
kiss for six seconds. Then you release all those love hormones. Okay,
(08:13):
you could do it. You can get those endorphins going. Yeah,
that's when you go for a nice run that runners high.
Even a piece of dark chocolate could get the endorphins going.
Love relationships smiling, laughing. There's so many natural ways to
boost your brain. All right, getting back to the morning
(08:36):
power hour. Now it's time to meditate. And I don't
care if it's a thirty second meditation, but start meditating
every single day. I call it the relaxed technique. So
I start at the top of my head and I
say relax, and I relax all those muscles on the
top of my head. Then I say relax, and I
(08:57):
relax my forehead, and I say relax, and I relax
my temples. I relax my eyebrows, relax my eye lids,
relax my cheek, relax my jaw, relax my neck, my shoulders,
my back, my hips, my knees, go all the way
down to my toes. So I pick thirty spots. Each
(09:17):
spot is a second. It's a thirty second meditation. Each spot.
You're just saying relax, relax. Internally, it's called a mantra. Relax, relax, relax.
Everybody could do thirty second meditation. That's your power hour.
You do it every single morning. So I don't care
if you read one page of a book, do a
(09:40):
thirty second meditation, write one thing in your gratitude jenrenal.
Just do something every day. Do something every day to exercise.
I don't care if it's a ten second run down
your block. Just run down to the edge of your
block for ten seconds. But at leash you start breathing
a little heavy and your heart started beating and maybe
(10:02):
even a little sweat. But every day, do something active.
I don't care. If it's ten pushups, ten sit ups,
ten jumping jacks, a ten second run, ten second bike,
just do something. If you got thirty seconds, do thirty seconds.
If you got a minute, do a minute. If you
got five minutes, do five minutes. But minimum do ten seconds.
(10:22):
Don't say oh, I don't have time to do a
ten second jumping jacks. Everybody's got ten seconds. But do
something move your body every single morning before you leave
to do your errands, to go to work, to go
to school, take your kids, run, whatever you gotta do.
But do ten seconds of an exercise every single morning.
(10:45):
It's all about the consistency. And then get a meal. Prep.
Don't go your house without eating and without food prepped.
Because you want organic food. You want healthy food. You
want colorful food. You want sta full of dare and
sugar and cheese and cream and boxes and cans and bags.
You want stuff with all these oils. You don't want
takeout food. You want real food from the earth, fruits, veggies, nuts, eggs, fish, chicken, turkey,
(11:14):
real food from the earth. Stop eating all this processed
crap with food dies, artificial sweetness, artificial flavors. You want
one ingredient food. So prep every morning. If you do
all these things every morning, you food prep, You exercise
your gratitude, You read, write, you cold water on your face,
(11:35):
you oil pull, you go to the bathroom, You write
down in your journal, you write your goals down. Then
you are gonna conquer the day. But if you press
your snooze alarm and you sleep in. You start off
your day with a failure, so start doing the Morning
Power Hour so you could function better, feel better, and
(11:56):
live a better life. This is doctor Eric Aplan and

Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Sitting is considered the new smoking. Harvard came
out with a study that showed sitting will kill you
(13:21):
just as quick as smoking. Now that doesn't mean start smoking,
because smoking will kill you, but sitting will cause obesity.
Sitting too much will cause depression, anxiety. Sitting too much
can cause diabetes, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's disease. Now I
(13:45):
don't want any of those. I want to prevent it.
So Luckily, my job is a job where I'm not sitting.
I'm not sitting at a computer all day. I'm walking
all day long. I'm working with patients, going to different rooms.
I'm running a business, always moving, moving, moving, moving, So
stop sitting. The worst thing you could do is sit
(14:07):
all day. Right, So you wake up and then you
sit at the breakfast table and you sit in the
car driving to work, or you sit on the bus
or the train commuting. Then you get to work and
you sit at the computer all day long. Then it's lunchtime,
Then you go to the cafeteria, sit at lunchtime. Then
(14:28):
you finish work, sitting all day at the computer again,
and you're done with work. Then you sit on the bus,
train or car again. Then you get home you sit
at the dinner table, and then you sit on the couch,
and it's the weekend. You sit at the bar, you
sit at the restaurant, you sit at the movie theater,
you sit at the play, sit at the musical, you
sit at the opera. Everything sitting, sit, sit, sit. Sitting
(14:53):
is the new smoking. You must follow the twenty rule.
The twenty rule is never sit for more than twenty minutes.
Set an alarm, get a cooking timer. Right now, I'm
writing a book, so after work, I do some sitting
(15:16):
at my computer, but I put an alarm for twenty minutes.
After twenty minutes and I hear the alarm, I finish
my passage, I finish my paragraph, I finish my chapter.
Whatever I'm doing, so it might be twenty twenty five minutes.
But then I get up for twenty seconds and I
walk twenty feet and I look twenty feet away. Or
(15:37):
you do twenty jumping jacks, do twenty sit ups, do
twenty pushups. I don't care what it is. Twenty lunges,
twenty squats, twenty pull ups, but move your body for
twenty seconds. Then you can go back to whatever you're doing,
(15:59):
whether you're working at the computer, you're watching TV, you're
reading a book, you're watching the Yankee game, don't care
what it is, but you get up every twenty minutes
for twenty seconds, move your body. You use it or
you lose it. The more you sit, the greater chances
(16:23):
of dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, obesity, diabetes, cancer, heart disease, covid,
lime disease, the flu, the depression, anxiety. They all are
aggravated by sitting. So you gotta set an alarm. Not
twenty minutes as quick. You're not gonna remember every twenty
minutes to get up, So you gotta set an alarm.
(16:47):
You gotta keep moving your body and get some exercise.
Find something that you like to do. I love Orange Theory.
It's this class where they do you go on the trail,
then you go on the rowing machine, and you do weights,
and you do the bosuit ball, then you do the
TRX and you do squats at the bed. So there's
(17:09):
all different types of exercises and every day it's a
different workout. The worst thing when people exercise, but they
do the same thing every week, same thing on Monday,
same body parts, same weights, same raps, same gym, same people. Okay,
exercise is good, but if you're doing the same exact
(17:31):
exercise every time, it's not good. Right, So maybe do
orange theory on Monday, then play basketball on Tuesday, then
go for a run on Wednesday, then go for a
bike ride on Thursday, and play soccer on Friday. Then
(17:52):
do high intensity interval training on Saturday, then do some yoga,
tai chi pilates on Sunday. Something like that, where every
day you're doing something different. You know. I like to
go to the gym, I like to do orange theory,
I like to play basketball, I like to go bike riding.
I like to play tennis. I like to play soccer.
So I love so many activities. Start loving stuff that
(18:16):
get your body moving. Could be a dance class. There
could be a zumba class. I've had patients do belly dancing,
hip hop dancing, pole dancing. I have seven year old
women patients that are doing pole dancing. They love it.
Get your body moving. I don't care if you're taking
salsa lessons or tango lessons. Do something fun, do something social,
(18:39):
use your brain, use your body, but keep that body moving.
Find activities that you like to do and maybe you
could do it with some young people. If you have
kids around you, take your dog for a run, throw
the ball. You don't have friends to play sports with,
you know, join a club, join a yoga class. You
(19:04):
know you'll meet people if you if you go every
morning to your yoga class, you'll make some yoga friends. Right,
But start choosing to do things that are more active,
and start choosing to do less things that are sedentary. Right,
Go for a hike, go camping, go rollerblading, go skiing,
(19:30):
go snowboarding, go sledding, go surfing, go boogie boarding, go swimming.
Do something that you like that it's not an erran
that's having fun, but moving your body. You have to
move your body and try and do weight resistant exercise,
(19:52):
not just aerobic aerobics where you run and you sweat
and your heart being going fast. But you want to
add aerobic You want to use your muscle. You have
a walking pharmacy inside your muscles, but you need resistance.
So even if you walk every day, that's not getting
weight resistant exercises. When you do weight resistant exercises, it
(20:17):
deposits happiness chemicals in your brain. So not only will
you get stronger and more fit, but you'll get in
better mood. You'll get better memory, better focus, more energy,
better sleep, better digestion. So start lifting weights, whether it's bars, dumbbells,
(20:45):
I don't care what it is. I don't care if
you just take a grocery bag and start doing bicep
curls with that. But start doing weight resistant exercise and
you could do your own body weight like push ups
or pull ups, stuff like that. So you don't necessarily
need any fancy equipment. You don't need a gym membership,
(21:06):
but you need weight resistant exercise. You might have to
maybe get some bands. Those are good too, so you
can do everything at home if you need to. When
they closed the gyms, I went in my backyard and
I st do weight resistant exercises with big rocks and
big branches and trunks of trees, and you know, I
used nature outside to be my weight resistant exercise. I
(21:29):
just ran down to my local elementary school and I
used the jungle gym as my pull up bars. And
you know, you can always find stuff outside to work
out with, all right, so there's never an excuse. Oh,
(21:50):
I get home and my gym's already closed. Okay, you
could do it at your own house. You don't need
any fancy equipment. Stop using excuses. Should never be an excuse,
but is the worst word in the human dictionary. Stop
using butt, start doing, Start taking action. You want your
(22:16):
heart beating fast, you want sweating, You want your muscles
getting bigger, and you gotta make progression. If you've been
doing weights with five pounds, time to go up to
ten pounds. If you've been doing ten pounds, time to
go up to fifteen pounds. If you're doing fifteen pounds,
time to go up to twenty pounds. You have to
make progress. Stop using the same weights every time. It
(22:37):
loses its effect. And if you don't increase weights, Let's
say if you're using fifteen pound weights and you do
ten reps, now you do eleven reps. If you're doing
push ups and yesterday you did fifteen pushups, today you're
gonna do sixteen push ups. If you went for a
(22:59):
walk and walk the mile, today, you're gonna walk one
point two five miles. You have to make progression. If
you did one pull up yesterday, do two pull ups today.
I don't care if you increase one percent, but just
(23:20):
increase your load, Increase your reps. Increase your weight, increase
your speed, increase your time. Just increase something. Make some
progression while working out. If you play basketball and you
made three shots in a row, now you can't leave
(23:40):
the court until you make four shots in a row.
Make progress. Your mood will be more stable when you
make progress. Stop doing the same thing every day. That's
the worst thing for your brain. Don't be a creature
of habit. You have to switch it up. The brain
(24:02):
loves new things. There's nothing more important for the brain
than novelty. Do you want to prevent Alzheimer's dementia? Start
thinking novelty, Start doing new things, meet new people, go
to new places, do new exercises. Stop sitting down, working,
(24:26):
eating and watching Netflix every day. Stop scrolling on Facebook
and going on YouTube and TikTok every day. Switch it up.
You have to do new things. Stop being a creature
of habit and start doing new things novelty every day.
(24:48):
It could be just starting to brush your teeth with
your left hand, but do something new every single day
so you function better, feel better, and live a better life.
This is doctor Eric Caplan and you're listening to boost
your brain power.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
If you want to improve your brain function, help with memory, focus, sleep, digestion,
energy depression, anxiety, dizziness, balance, vision, headaches, brain fog, weight loss,
or simply want to maximize your human potential and prevent
future diseases that this is the show for you. Don't
mis boost your brain power with doctor Eric Caplan and
(25:26):
you will learn natural, integrative, and holistic approaches to modern
day medical problems such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's stroke, autism, add concussion,
autoimmune diseases, insomnia, fibromyalgia, vertigo, migraines, four posture pain, TBI,
skin and digestive problems. Doctor Caplin is most famous for
getting to the root cause of a wide variety of
(25:47):
brain and health conditions, rather than treating symptoms with traditional
medicines and risky surgeries. To contact doctor Kaplin, you can
call his team at two oh one two six one
two one five zero or visit his website at kaplindc
dot com.
Speaker 2 (26:04):
Function better, feel better and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power now as we start the new year. Not
only do we want to improve our physical activity, but
(26:25):
we got to improve our mental activity. Right, so people
in the beginning of the year, they start getting a
little bit motivated and say, Okay, I'm gonna go to
the gym, I'm gonna exercise a little bit more, I'm
gonna eat a little bit healthier. I'm done with my
Christmas cookies and all my holiday parties and all the
(26:46):
Thanksgiving meals and all the alcoholic drink. So now it's
time to start the new year fresh. But we talk
about exercising new Nobody really talks about your mental stability
(27:06):
or your brain power, right, So how about this year
we start strengthening our brains. I find it interesting that
every day people shower every day, people brush their teeth,
every day, people wash their hands like without even thinking
(27:32):
about it. It's just natural habits. But do they exercise
their brains every day. No, In fact, it's the exact opposite.
Most adults stop using their brains. Right once you're done
with high school or college, they say, oh, I'm done learning,
(27:56):
and they stop reading. Stop learning new subjects, learning new languages,
stop learning musical instruments, I'm learning arts. Stop learning history,
stop learning science and math. Why don't we continue that
as we get older? Why don't we continue to learn
as we get older. But people don't do that. They
(28:18):
just like to complain and say, uh, my memory's getting worse.
I'm just getting older. Wrong, that's a lie. Don't believe
the lie. And doctors will tell you that. My patients
will complain, Uh, my memory is not as good as
it used to be. I guess I'm just getting older,
(28:40):
and doctors just accept that. Well, I do not accept that.
I'm a brain expert. I've seen over one hundred thousand patients.
I've read thousands and thousands of research articles. I know
what proves your brain function so that your memory could
(29:03):
get stronger as you get older. But you gotta do
the work. You gotta put in the effort. You have
to learn new things, and I don't care what it is.
You know. I had a patient a few months ago.
They said they were inspired by my radio show and
(29:23):
they decided to learn how to play the harmonica. I said,
that's great. Harmonica is very cheap, very easy to use.
You know, you could carry it around wherever you go.
It's very small, it's not too loud or it's gonna
oil your neighbors. But it's a musical instrument that you
(29:43):
could learn. And that's gonna stimulate your brain. Learn some
new exercises. All right, when you go to the gym,
just don't do your you know, your leg presses and
your bench presses and your bicep curls and your squats
and lunges. Aren't learning different exercises different activities. I like
(30:04):
to use every single machine in the gym. I like
to go to Orange Theory, where every day it's a
new class. I like to play basketball, where I'm going
left and right and up and down and backwards and
sprinting and jogging and walking and doing every activity. Same
thing with soccer, left and right and up and down
(30:25):
and backwards and sideways. Same with tennis. Those are the
sports that I play. We're going up and down and
left and right right. Baseball it's the same thing every time.
Golf it's the same thing every time. Those are not
good sports for you. The racket sports are the best.
They did research on which activities create the healthiest, longest lifestyle,
(30:53):
and it's racket sports. And this was even before pick
a ball was popular. So tennis is numberumber one. Racketballs
up there, even ping pong. It's that hand eye coordination.
You're moving all directions you got to go have a
good response time. Another good sport is swimming. I'd say
(31:14):
racket sports are the best. Swimming a second, Rowing is third.
But the most important thing is to do stuff that's fun.
Have some fun, but do new things. Take a tango
lesson if you've never learned tango. Learn how to play
the drums. If you've never learned how to play the drums,
(31:35):
learn some mandarin. You've never learned mandarin. Start learning new things,
maybe stuff that's useful. If you want to keep your
brain strong, you gotta keep learning new things. Learn how
to change a tire, Learn how to make a fire,
Learn how to filter water, learn how to cook, to
(31:56):
make a new meal, learn how to put up a shelf.
Learn how to make a desk. Learn how to garden.
Learn how to plant food. Learn how to raise chickens.
Start getting out of your comfort zone. If you want
your brain to get stronger, you have to do things
(32:17):
that is not used to doing. And the worst thing
is retirement. People say, oh, I can't wait to retire. WHOA, No,
I think that's not good. You don't want to retire
because then you're gonna stop using your brain. Now you
don't have to necessarily be in the job that you're
currently in for the rest of your life. So you can,
(32:40):
you know, retire from one job, but then you got
to take on a new job, or you got to volunteer,
or you got to help somebody else, or you got
to do a new hobby, or you got to join
a new club, or you gotta have a new meetup.
You got to travel to new places. You don't want
to just retire and then sit on the couch watch
it Netflix, scrolling on Facebook. That is a recipe for disaster.
(33:08):
So you got to do new things. You got to
go to new places. You got to meet new people.
You gotta do new activities that's novelty, new language, new
musical instruments, new dances, read new books, new subjects. Get
(33:28):
out of your comfort zone. You have to be uncomfortable.
If you're not uncomfortable, you're not doing right. Complacency will
kill your brain. You need challenge. You need to think.
If you don't like numbers, start doing Sudoku. If you
(33:52):
don't like letters, start doing the crossword puzzo. Just do
something out of your comfort zone. You don't like to run,
just sprint to the end of the block. You don't
like to dance, take them a range lesson, get a
(34:12):
little uncomfortable, push yourself a little bit more than you're
used to. Your brain needs challenge, your body needs challenge,
and maybe it could be at work. Take on a
new project, maybe get a new client that's gonna really
(34:36):
make you challenge that's gonna really work you good. Not
to the point where you get stressed. Because stress is
the silent killer. So you got to do something that
makes you uncomfortable. But you're okay with failure. The best
way to succeed is to fail many times so that
(34:58):
you can learn from your mistakes. But if you don't
take action, then you won't fail. If you never try,
then you won't fail. The more you fail, the more
successful you'll be. Right, you could fall down, but you
gotta get up. Failure is good because that means you're
trying stuff that's hard for you. So you have to
(35:21):
get out of your comfort zone all the time. Get
out of your comfort zone. Be resilient. Right, if it's
cold outside, hey, go outside for thirty seconds and your
short's and your t shirt. If it's hot outside, go
outside for a minute and a hat and gloves and
a winter coat. Challenge yourself. Don't eat every time you're hungry,
(35:45):
Don't drink water every time you're thirsty. Don't put on
the heat every time you're cold. Don't put on the
air conditioner every time you're hot. Don't go to sleep
every time you're tired. You gotta sell for a little bit.
Suffer makes your brain stronger, makes you more resilient so
you can handle the stress. Because you're never gonna get
(36:08):
rid of stress. There's always gonna be stress in your life.
But can your brain and body be strong so it
can handle the stress, so you could be more resilient,
so it doesn't cause anxiety, doesn't cause panic, doesn't cause
heart attack, stroke, high blood pressure. You gotta be more resilient.
(36:29):
But get out of that comfort zone. Visit a new place,
go to a new restaurant, and everyone's always gone to
the same restaurant they like, ordering the same food, cooking
the same meals every week. You need variety. You need
variety in food as well. Eat all the colors of
the rainbow. So you need a writing exercise. You need
(36:50):
the writing food, You need the writing education, You need
the writing charity. Variety in your friends, variety and your activities,
varieting in the places that you leave. You need variety, reading, novelty.
You need to do new things. That way you'll function better,
(37:12):
feel better, and live a better life. This is doctor
Eric Caplan and you're listening to boost your brain power.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
Function better, feel better, and live a better life. This
is doctor Eric Kaplan and you're listening to boost your
brain power. Now right Now, a lot of people are
dealing with a lot of stress, emotional stress, anxiety, panic,
People's minds racing a million miles per hour. They're worried
(38:41):
about the holidays, worried about the family, end of the year, taxes, money,
getting everything done, job, relationships. There's lots of stresses now.
There are many ways to reduce emotional stress. If you
have anxiety, the first thing you need to do is
(39:03):
leave the room, right, So if you're stressed, just leave
the room. If you're angry, it's okay to be angry
and take that five minutes and yell or scream or
cry or get frustrated, but then you gotta get over it.
Then you gotta move on, So leave the room. It's
(39:25):
hard when you're getting stressed and anxious to say, okay,
calm down, relax, everything's gonna be okay. It's not that
big a deal. That usually doesn't work. I'm sure you
guys have tried it. It's not usually successful. But let's say,
you know, I just had a little disagreement with my wife.
(39:47):
What I did, I said, Okay, I'm just gonna leave.
So instead of fighting and arguing when I'm emotional, I'm
just gonna say, hey, I gotta take a break to
go upstairs for a few minutes. All right, Then you
come back calm, cool and collected. Then you're not too
emotional because we don't make good decisions when we're emotional.
(40:10):
So the more emotional you are, the less logical you'll become,
and then you'll say things or do things that are
not appropriate. So if you're really stressed and anxious, leave
the room, do something new, change the subject. Go outside
for a walk, go to the kitchen for a glass
(40:31):
of water, go upstairs and listen to some music. You know,
do something to distract you from the current thing that's
stressing you out. The key for anxiety is distraction. The
key for depression is progression. The key for memory is novelty.
(40:59):
So we got to follow these suggestions. So next time
you get anxious, you leave the room, maybe go to
the bathroom and do some stress relieving activities. For example,
gargling that stimulates your vagus nerve. That's gonna decrease stress
(41:20):
and anxiety. But when you gargle, you gotta goggle really intensely.
The louder the gurgle, the better. So you gotta wake
your neighbors up, like I want you to gurgle so loud.
Do it in the shower where you can like be
messy and shoot up for the ceiling, and you want
your neighbors by what noises are coming out of that
(41:40):
guy's house. Then you know you're gargling really intensely. And
if you start choking, gagging, coughing, then you know you're
really doing it right. That's actually beneficial. So gagging, coughing,
and choking all stimulate the vagus nerve, which you're going
to help you reduce your stress. So you got a
(42:00):
gargle really really intensely, really loud for thirty seconds, three
times a day to help prevent stress and anxiety. Old
water on the face that reduces stress. Do it first
thing in the morning, right when you get up during
your power hour. Then do right before bed cold water
(42:23):
on the face. To get a good night's sleep, you
have to be cold. And you guys probably notice what
do you think it's easier to sleep if the room's
really cold or if the room's really hot. Always much
easier to sleep when the room's really cold. So sleep naked,
be cold. Splash your face with cold water right before bed,
(42:44):
keep the temperature cold, open up that window, keep it cold.
That gets a deep sleep. Cold reduces stress anxiety. When
you have anxiety, you're overheated, you're on fire, you're in flame.
(43:04):
Your brain's going over and over and over again. We
gotta cool you down. The best neuroscience has proved is
dipping your head or your face in a bucket of
ice water that's fifty degrees fahrenheit. I've seen it live
(43:25):
with my patients. People coming in with panic attacks, tachycardia,
the heart's beaten, you know, one hundred and ninety beats
per minute, and then we dip their head in ice
water and immediately the tachocardia, the fast heart rate goes
down to sixty beats per minute within a minute. That's
how powerful dipping your face in ice water is. No obviously,
(43:52):
take time to breathe, but if having stress, if you're
having panic, if you're having anxiety, cold water on the
face will help to cool you down. Another thing you
could do is called the tragus ear rub. The tragus
is this little flap on your inner ear, like when
you're trying to you know, the fire engines really loud,
(44:14):
and you want to cover your ear drum. You take
that tragus and you cover your ear so you don't
hear it. That's the trage, is that little flap that
covers your ears. So what you do is you rub.
You just take your two fingers and you rub it.
Not too hard, but that helps to relax your nervous system.
In fact, I've had patients pierced that part of their
(44:35):
ear and it's reduced their anxiety, reduced their migraines, reduces
their stress, their panic, their ADHD. So this tragus is
very powerful. Gargling can be very powerful. Cold water on
the face can be very powerful. The tragus ear rub
can be very powerful. Another good thing to do is
(44:58):
a breathing exercise. Now to relax your nervous system. You
always want to exhale longer than you inhale. Inhaling stimulate
your heart. That's gonna make your heart go faster, it's
gonna increase. Exhaling relaxes your nervous system. Therefore, the neuroscience
(45:19):
has showed the best way to breathe to relax your
nervous system is to inhale for four seconds, then hold
your breath for seven seconds, then exhale for eight seconds.
So to repeat inhale for four seconds, hold your breath
for seven seconds, and exhale for eight seconds. And if
(45:43):
you can rub your face at the same time, even
more effective. And when you rub your face, there's three
spots you want to rub to relax your nervous system.
You go from your forehead to your ear, then you
go from your cheek to your ear, Then you go
from your chin to your ear. So you do little
soft strokes on your face at the same time of
(46:04):
doing your inhal for four seconds, hold your breath for
seven seconds, and exhale for eight seconds. So those are
always to reduce anxiety, stress, panic, overheated, over firing. Right,
so we get those hot flashes, get those night sweats,
(46:25):
you get those panics. Then we need to do your
neurologic exercises. We're gonna get you out of that fight
or flight mode into a more relaxed rest and digest.
So we want to get rid of your increase sympathetic tone,
which creates more stress, and then work on your power
sympathetic nervous syste which is gonna get you in a
(46:47):
more relaxed state. Now, how do you know which parts
of your brain are functioning well? And which parts of
your brain are not functioning well. The best test is
called a q EEG brain mapping, and for this test,
you wear a cap that has electrodes attached to it.
Now there's no radiation, there's no pain, super quick, there's
(47:10):
no contrast fluid, you don't have to sit in some
claustrophobic tube. Super quick, super easy, non invasive. If it's
called a q EEG brain mapping, and it measures your
alpha brain waves, which is how you normally are. It
measures your beta brain waves, which is when you gonna
really think and focus. It measures your beta brain waves
(47:34):
when you're just kind of daydreaming in la la land.
And then it measures your delta, which is when you're
sleeping and a relaxed state. But based on the location
of the abnormal brain waves, it's gonna tell us which
parts of the brain are functioning well and which are not.
It's you gonna tell us do you have anxiety, do
you have depression? Do you have short term memory loss,
(47:54):
long term memory loss, working memory problems? Do you have
troubles with focus? Do you have troubles shifting techy? Do
you have troubles motivation organization? Do you have energy problems.
Do you have sleep deprivation? Do you have insomnia? Do
you have sensory problems, vision problems, hearing problems, dizzyness, headaches?
Do you have problems with dopamine acetylcholine? Do you have
(48:17):
having metal poisoning? Do you have a concussion. Do you
have a thyroid problem. Do you have an intestinal inflammation?
Do you have white matter inflammation in your brain? Do
you have toxic stress? The qEEG Brain Mapping literally picks
up all of this. It's an amazing test. It's my
favorite test. It's normally five hundred dollars, but for the
(48:38):
first seven people to call their text or email, you
could get this qEEG brain mapping for only twenty one dollars.
There's another gift we're gonna give. It's called a VNG
Video nostography, And this is where you wear these goggles
and they have infrared cameras on them and they measure
eye movements left and right and up and down and
(49:00):
dark and light and fast and slow. And based on
this we could tell which areas the brains are overactive
and which air the brains are underactive. If you're overactive,
you're gonna get panics. You're gonna get anxiety, you're gonna
have ADHD, you're gonna have insomnia, you have your mind racing,
you're gonna be stressed out. And you got a muscle
tension and pain and joints and all this stuff. Autoimmune disease, hashimotos, siliac, chogrins,
(49:26):
soriatic arthritis, rheumatoid. This is all from an overactive brain.
The VNG picks this up, or it picks up if
you have an underactive brain lethargy, you have fatigue, you
have poor memory, poor focus, you can't think, you have
brain fog, you have low energy, you're just dragging it around,
(49:49):
you can't think. This is if you're underactive. The VNG
will pick this up. And this helps us because we
gotta know is the right underactive, because then we're only
gonna do exercise on the left side. Is the left overactive,
then we got to do relaxation for that time, So
the VNG picks that up. This test is also normally
five hundred dollars, but for the first seven people to
(50:11):
call a text or email you can get this test
for only twenty dollars. Twenty one dollars as well, and
the last and third test is a one on one
with me. And what I'll do is go over your
brain mapping, the QEG. I'll go over your VNG, We'll
go over your blood work. We'll do a memory test.
We'll check out your heart, your lungs, your gut. Will
check out your range, emotion, your balance, your coordination, your posture,
(50:35):
how you walk, how you see, how you hear. We'll
go over a complete physical and neurological evaluation. That's also
normally five hundred dollars, but for the first seven people
to call, text or email, you could get that test
for only twenty one dollars. Now most people want to
do all three. You could do all three, a twenty
one dollar brain mapping, a twenty one dollar VNG, and
(50:58):
a twenty one dollar one on one with me. You
could do one, you could do two, or you could
do all three. Just call, text or email. The phone
number is six four six two two one six seven
three eight. The email is info at caplinbraininbody dot com. Again,
the phone number is six four six two two one
(51:21):
six seven three eight. You could call or text. You

all three tests for twenty one dollars each. Because you
