Anxiety and insomnia aren’t always a mindset problem—they can be chemistry and nervous-system overload. In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Avik, nutritionist Beverly Meyer unpacks GABA and the body’s “calm” circuitry.
This episode is for anyone who feels wired at night, overwhelmed by thoughts, or tired of chasing quick fixes. You’ll hear about sensory overload, the habit of catastrophizing, and practical ways to think about support through food, rest, and daily habits.
About the Guest:
Beverly Meyer is a clinical nutritionist and health educator (in practice since the 1980s) and the host of Primal Diet, Modern Health.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, Michael Waters explores death as a transition—not a finish. If you’re grieving, curious, or quietly afraid of the unknown, this episode offers a steadier lens.
Michael shares how dreams, shamanic journeying, and “psychopomp” work shaped his understanding of what may happen after we die. You’ll hear why some souls may feel “stuck,” how guilt and attachment can keep us tethered, and how a grounded spirituality can soften fear—so we live with more presence while we’re here.
About the Guest:
Michael Waters shares lived experience in psychopomp work, animism, and shamanic practice. He and his late wife, Kathy, documented their experiences in a book titled The Bridge to Light and Love, which he offers for free.
Episode Chapters:
-
00:09:29 — Death as transition: a quieter, braver question
-
00:11:07 — “A sense of purpose”: being asked to help souls cross
-
00:12:17 — The biggest misconception about the afterlife
-
00:13:00 — “There’s a lot of movement”: roles, guides, and service beyond life
-
00:15:04 — Learning shamanism and entering “non-ordinary reality”
-
00:18:16 — Why some spirits don’t cross: guilt, fear, and unfinished attachment
-
00:27:24 — The free book and how to request it
Key Takeaways:
-
Hold death with curiosity, not certainty—and notice how that changes your fear.
-
If grief feels heavy, ask: is it guilt, attachment, or love looking for a new form?
-
Pay attention to dreams as a gentle place where meaning can surface.
-
Ground spiritual exploration with simple practices (breath, journaling, reflection).
-
Let the idea of “life as a school” invite growth, not pressure.
