Jeff, a lifelong athlete and a professional dedicated to the study and teaching of wellness practices, brings over 20 years of experience as a licensed massage therapist and fitness trainer. From his initial plans to become an elementary teacher to his profound shift towards health and wellness due to economic and personal revelations, Jeff's journey is a testament to following one’s passion and the deep interconnection between mental and physical health.

Today, Jeff will share insights on the influence of mindset on physical health, the critical roles of the nervous system, including the vagus nerve in wellness, and practical advice on incorporating breathwork, gut health management, and exercise into daily routines. His holistic approach not only encompasses physical health but extends to emotional and mental well-being, recognizing the interconnectedness of our entire body system.


Join us as we delve into how small changes in perspective and behavior can lead to significant life enhancements. Welcome, Jeff Hartford, to "This is Beacon." Let’s dive into this enriching journey together and continue our conversation on mental health.
