Our bodies possess remarkable healing intelligence that can work faster and more effectively when properly supported through an integrative approach to recovery. The key is understanding that true recovery begins long before injury occurs, with maintenance being just as crucial as repair in building resilience.
• Nervous system maintenance creates balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic states through breathwork, intentional movement, and tools like contrast therapy
• Nutritional foundations prevent silent deterioration of joints, muscles, and fascia by addressing deficiencies in key nutrients
• Regular detoxification prevents chronic inflammation through seasonal cleanses, cruciferous vegetables, and practices like rebounding
• The repair process begins by clearing inflammation through eliminating inflammatory triggers and using targeted supplements
• Rebuilding the terrain requires supporting cellular regeneration with collagen, zinc/copper, vitamin C, and gentle load-bearing movement
• Integration addresses both physical and emotional aspects of injury through visualization and maintaining social connections
• Your skeletal structure completely regenerates approximately every five years, highlighting the importance of ongoing support

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Whether it's a sprained ankle from your last
workout, a herniated disc fromyears behind the desk or a full
body trauma from a high impactcar wreck injury doesn't
discriminate.
One moment you're fine.
The next your world shifts andsuddenly you're in pain.
You're frustrated, maybe evenquestioning if you'll ever feel
(00:21):
strong again.
But here's the truth, if you'llever feel strong again.
But here's the truth your bodyis designed to heal powerfully,
intelligently and often fasterthan you may think.
That is if we've created theright environment.
Stay tuned.
Hello, I'm Jeffrey Mort.
If you're like mostentrepreneurs, you're busy
(00:41):
taking care of business.
Yet who's taking care of you?
If you're ready to take yourenergy and performance to the
next level in your life and yourbusiness, then this podcast is
for you, because today you'regoing to start breaking
boundaries of your mind, bodyand business with integrative
health, and when you do that,your possibilities are limitless
(01:02):
.
I'm grateful you're here.
Yes, always grateful for youjoining me on the Breaking
Boundaries podcast.
If you have any questions forme, you can use the send us a
message feature in there and I'dbe happy to answer your
questions live on an upcomingepisode.
In today's episode, we're divingdeep into the high-performance
(01:24):
integrative health approach torapid recovery.
Yes, I'm Jeffrey Mort, yourpersonal high-performance health
coach, and, like I said, I'm sograteful that you're here today
how to bounce back faster,prevent re-injury and build a
body that doesn't just heal butbecomes more resilient over time
(01:50):
.
And here's the twist truerecovery doesn't begin after you
get hurt.
It starts long before.
So let's break it down into twopowerful phases One's going to
be maintenance and one's goingto be repair.
So we're talking aboutmaintenance.
Resilience is built, it's notborrowed.
(02:12):
Most people think recoverystarts after that injury, but by
then you're already behind thecurve.
The best time to heal is beforeyou're hurt, and I know that
sounds strange.
Right, but think about it.
Athletes don't just train toperform, they train to prevent
breakdown.
High performance health is nodifferent.
(02:33):
So we're going to look at threekey elements of injury proofing
your life.
The first one is nervous systemmaintenance.
That's right.
Most people don't think ofinjury prevention starting with
the nervous system.
But when your central nervoussystem, your CNS, is balanced
(02:56):
meaning it's balanced betweenyou know it's not sympathetic
nervous system dominant orparasympathetic nervous system
dominant, it's balanced betweenthe both your body is in a state
of readiness, not defense, andthat means faster reflexes,
better tissue regeneration andfewer inflammatory responses to
(03:16):
things like daily stress.
Now, a few things that can bedone here is practice.
Breath work is absolutelyamazing for building that CNS
resilience.
Daily movement and I'm not justtalking about lack of being
sedentary, I'm talking aboutintentional movement.
Things like Tai Chi, qigong,walking are amazing.
(03:38):
And then circadian rhythmalignment We'll talk a little
bit more about that one comingup and then using tools like
heart rate variability tracking.
Red light therapy is absolutelyamazing.
So is contrast therapy, orsimply, you know, if you don't
have the means or theavailability for the resources
(04:01):
for contrast therapy, that wouldbe, uh, like a cold immersion
system and an infrared sauna.
Uh, you can simply do hot, coldshower cycles to regulate the
stress load.
That works amazing too.
You know, having, uh, havingthe water without being burned,
and the temperature should belimited in your shower so that
you don't actually get physicalburns Uh, but as hot as you can
(04:24):
take it, for as long as you cantake it, and then as cold as you
can stand, for, uh, as long asyou can stand, you know, maybe,
maybe not as long as you canstand, We'll, we'll say um, you
know, five breaths, 10 breaths.
I like to count it in breathsthan seconds so that, um, I'm
focusing on my, my breath.
And so those hot and coldshower cycles.
(04:44):
Really, it regulates thatstress load, creates resilience,
reduces inflammation.
So many benefits to it, as wellas the mental resilience aspect
.
Next, nutritional foundations.
This is one of my favoritetopics here.
You know that you can't repairwhat you don't feed.
Meaning if you're deficient inmagnesium or omega-3s or B
(05:07):
vitamins or lacking things likecollagen and quality protein,
your joints, your muscles andyour fascia are silently
deteriorating.
And just talking about thefascia there for a second, I'm
going to do an episode strictlyon the fascia coming up, because
it's absolutely amazing.
It used to just be thought ofas like a connective tissue and
(05:32):
now there are experts that aresaying the fascia is considered
to be an organ of the body.
So we'll do a full episode onthat and how important it is and
how to support it.
But ways that you can supportit quickly know your joints,
your muscles, your fascia isdaily foundational protocols.
They're not extras, they areyour cellular insurance plan,
(05:52):
and I'm not talking about yourcell phone, I'm talking about
every cell in your body, all 30or 50 trillion of them somewhere
in between.
There it's a great insuranceplan for cellular health.
And then focusing on Ananti-inflammatory nutrition plan
to keep your internalenvironment recovery ready Very,
(06:12):
very important.
And then next, detoxification asinjury prevention.
That's right.
An overloaded liver, sluggishlymphatic system and toxic
tissues set the stage forchronic inflammation.
That low-grade inflammation isthe silent killer which slows
recovery and invites injury.
(06:33):
So regular seasonal functionalmedicine detoxes.
I'm actually doing one rightnow.
I'm right in the middle of mytwo-and-a-half-day liquid fast
using daily greens.
So you know, really dark, leafygreen vegetables, cruciferous
vegetables from the cruciferousvegetable family, meaning
broccoli, cauliflower, brusselssprouts, asparagus, bok choy,
(06:57):
like any of those are absolutelyamazing because they contain
compounds in them that are goingto help your body detoxify.
Have access or have your owninfrared sauna.
Highly recommended.
I love the Therasage 360.
Plus, it's infrared and redlight therapy Absolutely amazing
.
It's portable, it's affordableOne of the best health
(07:18):
investments I've ever made formyself.
Quality hydration, so makingsure you're drinking filtered
water, half your body weight inounces.
Supercharge your water withlemon and sea salt and if you
want to take it to the nextlevel, we can talk about
hydrogen water as well, andthat's you know what I consider
quality hydration and then, ofcourse, rebounding.
(07:39):
What's rebounding?
It's just simply jumping on,basically a mini trampoline, and
if you don't have one of those,you can just bounce up and down
on the ground.
It's a little harder on thejoints, so it's great to get a
rebounder.
You can pick one up on Amazonfor about $50 or more.
Great way to help your body tostay clean and primed and ready
to heal at a moment's notice.
(07:59):
You know, I'm not going to liehere.
Maintenance isn't glamorous.
There's nothing you know sexyabout health maintenance
whatsoever.
But it's where the real magiclives, because nobody doesn
lives, because nobody wants tobe laid up or injured or unable
to perform at their occupationthat they may or may not love.
(08:20):
You don't wait to brush yourteeth until you get a cavity.
That's really how it boils down.
So why wait to support yourrecovery system until something
breaks?
It just doesn't make sense.
So now, recovery that restoresand not just rebuilds.
This is the repair process.
Let's say the injury hasalready happened, whether minor
(08:42):
or major.
What's next?
The conventional path isusually okay we'll ice it, we'll
rest it, maybe some pain meds,we'll wait and we'll hope for
the best.
But what if you couldaccelerate healing and restore
function using your body's ownbuilt-in repair intelligence.
Well, here's how we supportthat from the inside out.
(09:04):
The first phase is to clear theinflammation and reset the
signals.
We want to eliminate sugar,eliminate alcohol and process
foods immediately.
We really shouldn't be doingthose things anyways, but if a
person is, that's the firstthing that needs to go, because
those create that low-gradeinflammation.
And then using short-termanti-inflammatory support like
(09:28):
things like curcumin, bromelain,omega-3s, magnesium Absolutely
amazing.
We have a great product calledInflammasoothe with our partner
Equal Life Absolutely amazingfor soothing inflammation.
It has that curcumin, it hasthat bromelain, and then we can
add in a daily omega-3 supportcapsule probably three grams per
(09:49):
day during recovery.
Daily omega-3 support capsuleprobably three grams per day
during recovery, and then a fullspectrum magnesium maybe one at
lunch and two at dinner, andthen some magnesium glycinate
before bed.
Would be an absolutely amazinganti-inflammatory support.
And then bringing in some neurorehab techniques like vagal
toning, vagal nerve toning,gentle cranial sacral therapy.
(10:12):
That was absolutelyinstrumental for me, healing
from some just lifelong traumasand releasing that energy or
somatic movement to reset thecentral nervous system trauma.
I always like to use theanalogy that if we can put a
(10:33):
symphony on a plastic vinylrecord, then it really makes
sense that an impact like a carwreck or something along those
lines can imprint thatinstantaneous energy into the
cells of the body and that needsto be released.
Craniosacral therapy is a greatway to do that.
(10:56):
Phase two we want to rebuild theterrain.
We want to support muscletissue and cellular regeneration
with things like high-qualitycollagen.
Zinc is absolutely amazing.
Probably.
Add in a little bit of copperthere in the right ratio.
Vitamin c probably as ascorbicacid, maybe about a gram per day
(11:17):
, maybe even in this case youcould go two to five grams per
day, as long as it's not causingany bowel motility issues.
Adding in some silica and, ofcourse, amino acids are all
going to be fantastic forsupporting that tissue and
cellular regeneration.
Now, if energy was due to adeficiency, like stress
(11:39):
fractures or ligament tears, wewould probably want to start
with testing.
We probably run what's calledthe minerals and metals test.
This is the hair tissue mineralanalysis to assess root causes
and correct those imbalances.
We want to make sure that maybetoo much calcium or phosphorus
is not being pulled away fromthe bones and that could cause,
(12:01):
you know, easy stress fractures,and then we'll know exactly how
to supplement once we do thattest, so that we can be
supporting the body and avoidthose things.
You know, you don't.
You don't have to be old andbrittle to have brittle bones,
or old and frail, I should say,to have brittle bones.
That can happen just from asimple nutrient deficiency, like
not enough magnesium.
(12:22):
The body is actually going topull that calcium out of um, out
of the bones, to be able tomake up for that.
The body is um.
You know it's going to use whatit has for what it needs as
often as it can or needs to, andsometimes that causes
deficiencies elsewhere in thebody.
So we want to test, make surewe don't have deficiencies or
(12:42):
toxicities for that matter, andthen take action accordingly.
And then, last, on this rebuildthe terrain.
Phase two part is toincorporate gentle load bearing
movement.
Now, I know you know if you'rein a, you know, rough and tough
industry, that gentle loadbearing movement might not be
something that you have time for.
(13:04):
But honestly, if you're alreadyinjured you really don't have
time for further setbacks.
And that gradual load-bearingexercise, gradual exercise
program that we have isabsolutely amazing for that
rebuilding.
You know, when I first started,you may or may not know, my
lead domino into the wellnessindustry was Tai Chi and Qigong
(13:27):
and I quickly realized how thoseexercises helped to build bone
density and strength andconditioning Absolutely amazing.
And it also stimulates growthfor the muscles and the bones.
Keep in mind, you know you don'tget one skeleton for life.
Your skeleton is no differentthan your skin cells, your blood
(13:47):
cells.
It has a cellular life cyclecalled apoptosis, programmed
cellular death.
Your skin cells regenerate on adaily basis.
Your blood cells regenerateabout every 120 days.
Your skeleton regeneratesbetween a little bit slower, but
probably every five years.
You actually have a newskeletal structure in your body.
(14:07):
So if you can support thatregeneration system, you're
going to be much better off,much more resilient and avoid
things like stress, fractures,broken ribs and other things
like that.
And then phase three integrateand rewire.
Every injury carries a physicaland emotional imprint.
As I was talking about thesymphony on a vinyl record, we
(14:31):
want to use this phase toaddress both physical and
emotional.
So things like visualization,hypnotherapy or neurolinguistic
programming can actually help toreframe trauma.
And then continue foundationalsupport and gradually
reintroduce movement Sunlightdon't forget that Sunlight as a
(14:52):
nutrient that is absolutelycrucial for regenerating cells
in the body, for hormoneproduction and so much.
And then, of course, don'tforget about or rule out social
connection, and I'm not talkingabout social media.
Don't forget about or rule outsocial connection.
And I'm not talking aboutsocial media, I'm talking about
actual deep level socialconnections and maybe revisiting
with friends and family thatmean a lot to you.
(15:13):
So this integrative pathdoesn't just heal tissue, it
restores trust in your body.
So, wrapping things up here,your body remembers.
Here's what I want you toremember.
You don't need to wait for thenext injury or burnout,
breakdown or diagnosis to startyour recovery journey.
(15:33):
Daily, functional levelmaintenance builds your recovery
reserve and when life hits hardand it will your body already
knows what to do.
Whether you're a weekendwarrior, a busy professional, a
full-time athlete or coming outof a life-altering trauma,
you're built to bounce back.
(15:54):
And let's not just recover,let's rebuild stronger.
If you want a step-by-stepintegrative roadmap for
maintenance and recovery, youcan grab the rapid recovery
blueprint, linked in the shownotes.
You'll get tools, tests andprotocols.
I've used with everyone fromathletes to accident survivors.
And if you're ready forone-to-one support, let's talk.
(16:16):
You'll find a link to book arecovery consult below in the
show notes Until next time,remember your body is your
greatest ally.
Stay strong, stay resilient andkeep breaking boundaries.
Bye-bye everybody.
Whether it's a sprained ankle from your last
workout, a herniated disc fromyears behind the desk or a full
body trauma from a high impactcar wreck injury doesn't
discriminate.
One moment you're fine.
The next your world shifts andsuddenly you're in pain.
You're frustrated, maybe evenquestioning if you'll ever feel
(00:21):
strong again.
But here's the truth, if you'llever feel strong again.
But here's the truth your bodyis designed to heal powerfully,
intelligently and often fasterthan you may think.
That is if we've created theright environment.

something that you have time for.
(13:04):
But honestly, if you're alreadyinjured you really don't have
time for further setbacks.
And that gradual load-bearingexercise, gradual exercise
program that we have isabsolutely amazing for that
rebuilding.
You know, when I first started,you may or may not know, my
lead domino into the wellnessindustry was Tai Chi and Qigong
(13:27):
and I quickly realized how thoseexercises helped to build bone
density and strength andconditioning Absolutely amazing.
And it also stimulates growthfor the muscles and the bones.
Keep in mind, you know you don'tget one skeleton for life.
Your skeleton is no differentthan your skin cells, your blood
(13:47):
cells.
It has a cellular life cyclecalled apoptosis, programmed
cellular death.
Your skin cells regenerate on adaily basis.
Your blood cells regenerateabout every 120 days.
Your skeleton regeneratesbetween a little bit slower, but
probably every five years.
You actually have a newskeletal structure in your body.
(14:07):
So if you can support thatregeneration system, you're
going to be much better off,much more resilient and avoid
things like stress, fractures,broken ribs and other things
like that.
And then phase three integrateand rewire.
Every injury carries a physicaland emotional imprint.
As I was talking about thesymphony on a vinyl record, we
(14:31):
want to use this phase toaddress both physical and
emotional.
So things like visualization,hypnotherapy or neurolinguistic
programming can actually help toreframe trauma.
And then continue foundationalsupport and gradually
reintroduce movement Sunlightdon't forget that Sunlight as a
(14:52):
nutrient that is absolutelycrucial for regenerating cells
in the body, for hormoneproduction and so much.
And then, of course, don'tforget about or rule out social
connection, and I'm not talkingabout social media.
Don't forget about or rule outsocial connection.
And I'm not talking aboutsocial media, I'm talking about
actual deep level socialconnections and maybe revisiting
with friends and family thatmean a lot to you.
(15:13):
So this integrative pathdoesn't just heal tissue, it
restores trust in your body.
So, wrapping things up here,your body remembers.
Here's what I want you toremember.
You don't need to wait for thenext injury or burnout,
breakdown or diagnosis to startyour recovery journey.

reserve and when life hits hardand it will your body already
