Can you believe our Beating Cancer Daily Podcast is helping listeners in the Ukraine and Russia? In Israel and many Arab countries too? We just found out we also have listeners in Uganda, Bangladesh, Korea, Sweeden, Greece, and Trinidad. Yep, that's 69 countries and growing! With 250+ daily episodes since 2023, there is a bite-sized strategy and a laugh to be discovered by every patient, survivor, and caregiver. I am honored to often feature Functional Medicine Expert/Survivor Jacqui Bryan, CNS/RN and Comedian/Survivor Missy Hall along with an occasional special guest.

Build Better Bone Health
Tips:
1. We all know that we need calcium to support bone health, but there are many other important nutrients that are needed for the calcium to get into the bone.
2. A little sunshine can help calcium get into your bones. The UV rays from sunlight help to form vitamin D in your body. Vitamin D helps to increase the absorption of calcium, ultimately building stronger bones.
3. Everyday behaviors could be leaching your bones vital minerals such as calcium and magnesium. One way to stop the leaching is to remove refined sugar. Try swapping refined processed food for whole food alternatives, example swap a bagel for whole grain oatmeal.
4. Wine and cheese may taste delicious together, but did you know this combo can have a positive effect on your bones? Learn more.

Goal Setting
Setting goals adds meaning to our lives by creating motivation to make progress vs getting stuck in old patterns. One framework for goal setting is called SMART. This framework can be applied to anything you want to change in your life. It stands for Specific Measurable Achievable Relevant & Time-bound. Every time you set & meet a goal - even if it's small - you build confidence towards setting & meeting even bigger goals.

The Power of the Subconscious
The subconscious mind is the seat of our emotions, memory, beliefs and instincts. It allows us to do things we don’t have to think about, but we can alter them if we choose to. According to Dr. Bruce Lipton, a cell biologist, “When it comes to sheer neurological processing abilities, the subconscious mind is more than a million times more powerful than the conscious mind. If the desires of the conscious mind conflict with the programs in the subconscious mind, neuroscience has now established that the conscious mind runs the show, at best, only about 5 percent of the time. It turns out that the programs acquired by the subconscious mind shape 95 percent or more of our life experiences.”

Instructions
Preheat oven 350 degrees
Mix flour, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix date syrup or honey, tahini, and vanilla.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until well combined.
Use a tablespoon to scoop out the batter onto the baking sheets, forming little round balls. Flatten each ball, and then use your pinky finger to make an indent in the center.
Place half a pecan or walnut on each cookie, or sprinkle sesame seeds on top.
Bake for about 8 minutes on a parchment-lined baking sheet or until the bottoms turn golden.
