Transform Your Mental Health with Christian Holistic Healing: Insights from Dr. David Bernstein

welcome fearfully and wonderfully made humans to another episode of the holistic counselor podcast today's episode is extra special to me because my guest Dr David Bernstein played a pivotal role in my own healing journey and I'm truly honored to have him here let me take you back to my mid-30s I was struggling with severe anxiety and a strange choking feeling I went to a doctor had blood work done and they said it's all in your mind

handing me a prescription for Xanax I tried it for two days and absolutely hated it I knew deep down something else was wrong and it was beyond just mental finally after an emergency thyroid Scan they found a goiter growing Inward and referred me to an endocrinologist I was faced with two options have my thyroid completely removed and be on synthroid for life or undergo radioactive iodine treatment Bo both choices left me terrified frustrated and more anxious

than ever so I asked every Christian I knew to pray for me in that moment of crying out to God for help my sister mentioned Dr David Bernstein I decided to make an appointment I'll never forget walking into his office for the first time his staff were worshiping and praying for their clients completely unaware that I had arrived right then I knew it was a divine intervention I'll be honest it was an uncon unconventional experience Dr

Bernstein's digital response technique the supplements the strict diets no sugar no Dairy no gluten I basically ate ice cubes and and um vegetables just kidding I'm just kidding but honestly it felt overwhelming at first because it was a shift in mindset but I was determined to do whatever it took and within four months my goiter was completely gone that experience shaped how I practice today in my own mental health practice I still see Dr Bernstein from

time to time and he knows if I walk into his office it means I'm pretty bad I'm in pretty bad shape what I admire him Mo what I admire about him most is his ability to discern whether the root of an issue is spiritual mental or physical in a world bombarded by toxins and stress maintaining balance is a challenge but Dr Bernstein has been a Guiding Light in my journey I don't think he fully realizes the

impact he's had on my life wow so without further Ado let me introduce you to this Gifted Man Who is much so much more than a Healer Dr David Bernstein was born in Eliz Elizabeth New Jersey and started his academic Journey at Farley Dickinson University earning his bachelor's in biology in 1971 he took an unexpected turn as a rock and roll musician for several years before returning to school where he earned his doctor of Chiropractic degree

from New York Chiropractic College in 1978 he was also a member of the F chai or fii F chai Kai F Kai Omega Omega Honor Society for Scholastic achievement Dr B Bernstein is founder and director of the advanced Wellness Center in Fort Lauderdale Florida he's a certified clinical nutritionist and has completed numerous post-graduate courses in nutrition spinal manipulation and bioenergetic medicine he's best known for inventing the digital response technique a method that assesses energy flow throughout

the body to detect and correct health issues the uniqueness and accuracy of DRT even earned him a patent from the United States patent office Beyond his professional work Dr Bernstein is also the developer of the god breathing CD a relaxing therapeutic tool combining Holy Scripture classical music and a special breathing technique available in English and Spanish he's a member of both the international and American associations of clinical nutritionists the American Chiropractic Association and the Florida Chiropractic

Association on a personal note Dr bernin has been married to his wife Linda since 1989 he's an accomplished singer songwriter and worship leader at Temple Aaron I want to say this right H Kadesh hodesh hodesh hodesh a Messianic synagogue where he's composed over a hundred scripture-based songs his favorite pastime is leading people in praise and worship ship Dr Bernstein often says the success of our practice is due in part to the fact that my staff and

I are sincerely concerned about our clients well-being we take the time to listen and address their health care needs on and an individual basis because each client is special our unique assessment procedures and treatment protocols help us pinpoint the precise cause of disease and restore normal function to the body our objective is to correct the root cause of the condition rather than merely masking the symptoms and I can personally attest to that Dr Bernstein welcome to

the holistic counselor podcast GE I hope I can measure up that introduction there oh wow I was just like when I was when I was putting it together I'm like 1971 that's when I was born Dr Bern yes it's a long time ago but you know with with aging get some wisdom though I've learned a lot since 1971 I know I mean and I've seen I've seen like your I don't want to say practice grow because

you started did I mention when you started the practice Advanced Wellness Center 1978 yeah 78 wow so since 1978 you've been in that Fort lale office well I've changed I've been in Fort Lauderdale I changed off sites one time okay it's 46 years now I've doing this oh my goodness I'm surprised you're not retired yet but we need you so don't retire yet I'm I'm working on yeah I really don't want to just retire my father

when he retired he just sat in front of a TV set the rest of his life said I can't do that so my goal is to um have other doctors coming in and I freeze me up to do other things my my next agenda is teaching I I want to teach other doctors my technique and I also want to go in various congregations churches temples whatever and speak about health and I think that's sorely lacking what's

going on in in the body of Believers today I mean you go to a a potluck dinner at a church and it's potluck that you come out healthy after you eat it no you're so right that's one thing that uh we like you know in the church we like to I hate to say point out different things right but then we don't look at how our body is a temple so so let's start there because I

know I mean I wanted to ask about your diverse background and how it influenced your approach to health and wellness and how you became a musician to a holistic practitioner and stuff like that but I know also like I'm excited to talk about Genesis one with you so wherever you want to start like you tell me I'll tell you a little more about my background first and we'll go into the Genesis um so I was raised

in a Jewish Home you know what uh we weren't religious per se we went like the standard Christian we' go twice a year Christmas and and and Easter we were twice a year during the high holidays and something else but um but I still had this sense of a quest for God you know even after I got Barn Mitzvah and everything which was cool I learned how to read Hebrew but can I understand Hebrew no I

could hold a conversation I could read it which as taught me still it was very valuable to me even today as a Believer I don't consider myself a Christian per se I am a Jewish believer just like you know as Jewish believer all his apostles were Jewish believers they didn't call themselves Christians right come to later on but uh you know I believe in the same thing that that most Christian Chans believe in although some of

them have done away with the you know with the the law and have done away with the feast days and all that which Jesus said never do that right he says I don't remove a single jot or tit from the words I say and so we need to follow that but we're not saved by that I don't want to take time up to showing how I got saved but I got saved many years ago by you

know patience witnessing to me it's one lady I'll take time anyway please listen I have all the time I'm serious I can make this into two episodes I don't if if you have the time I have the time honestly okay so yeah I've had early in my career a bunch of you know Christians would come in and witness to me they give me tracks and um and one of them even gave me a Bible and so

anyway I I'm thinking to myself well that's good for you you know you believe in Jesus but I'm Jewish we don't believe in Jesus all right I was polite to them so I took the tracks I took the Bibles and things they were given put them in a stack of on my bookshelf somewhere and one time one lady come in to me came into to me um she was a marry K lady she had she had

the the pink Cadillac the puffed up hairo and she it was real nice she was a patient of mine and you know she came in and one time she she came in she said do you know that Jesus is the son of God God I said well I'm a Son of God too he says no that he's the only begotten Son of God I didn't know what that meant right so um she said well you believe

in God don't you I said yeah she said well if you do pray to him and ask him if Jesus is the savior I like that it gave me a challenge you other people track believe in Jesus no doesn't hit home to me but when you give me the challenge make it so it's my choice you know by my coming to that realization that that hit home for me so anyway I praying every night for couple

of months went by and one night I was kind of troubled okay and so I was praying and the very next morning as I woke up I heard a man's voice in the room it wasn't in my head said one bird one word Leviticus so I looked around all I saw was my wife she doesn't have a man's voice uh so uh in any case I went to my stack of Bibles and tracks and all that

were there I'm trying to I went to my Bible I I knew it was a book in the Bible that's all I can remember and so I went over to it and I'm reading it and I'm saying all the seeing all these rituals you have to go through to atone for sin I said God if that's you speaking to me you're going to have to do better than that I cocky there anyway anyway so he prompted

me to pick up this other version this this uh mother and daughter with patience mind gave me and I opened up to the introductory section of it and I said if you believe that Jesus is your savior you no longer have to go through all these Priestly rituals on for me I said wow it just his timing at that moment clicked in so then I started getting a hunger for you know reading the word and and

do that and shortly we went to a a message Cong m congregation and uh it was pretty touching my my wife was was um Gentile she was RA in a h a church where they had a similar type of format in the worship and she started weeping from me and I said what's going on so anyway so we went back a few times and finally on Ros sh a Jewish New Year and 1989 I got Sav

wow wow so you know I was a musician before that so eventually I joined the praise and worship team and God gave me a lot of uh songs you know biblically based songs and so I I've put those together I've had I put out a couple of CDs fact I'm working on third one right now about halfway through it and uh so it's been a real joy for me the ride's been really good and but see

so my life has been really going from I've been inspired by music since I was an infant okay and um my mother used to sing to me all the time even I was like you know five six months old and um I balanced my body in time with the music she said as I was she was singing and before that uh my father played piano and he would write songs and his father uh also played music

he was a a violinist wow and um he actually taught eigor sovinsky how to play the violin eigor Stravinsky was one of the most noted um musicians um writers of Music at that time in the whole 20th century even Leonard Bernstein was praising this guy so uh so it was quite an honor to have him teach him and so he was so thrilled with my grandfather his piano he couldn't take it with he was going to

the United States he couldn't take it with him so I gave it to my grandfather so my father learned on how to play piano on Igor Stravinsky's piano wow so it was was in there and my I found out later around with one of my relatives migrated to the us legally us and and uh they would get together on Saturday nights and they would jam you know piano violin accordion all these things they did back then

was before my time but the music was in the was in the family and it was H quite quite a blessing my brother plays musical instrument too so wow so creativity is in your blood yeah so I went from musician to physician uh and now inventor and eventually I'm gonna be teacher that's my goal that's what God has planned out for me honestly though you've been teaching I mean like you taught me that book that seven

um I remember that little seven biblical secrets of vibrant Health yeah I held on to I still have it I it's so ripped up and so so worn out I'll get you a new one I remember getting that and I'm just like what is this and how wait what so let's go and now discuss a little bit about creation story and Genesis one let's you know let's start in the beginning in the beginning yes beginning okay

so it's really about much more than it's on the surface you know a lot of people will read that passage Genesis one and they skim over what's really going on but I'm always the one kind guy wants to connect the dots some things didn't add up to me what's the story behind the story and if we look at it uh it talks about light it talks about water but yet there was nothing there where's White Light

where's the water coming from so if you look at the uh ancient Hebrew text it's not like it is today the Hebrew letters are totally different it was like pictographs like they did on caves you know it was like symbols and so the symbol for water was a wave structure like that okay and um now I'm going to dip into quantum physics a little bit but I don't want to go deep with it because I'm going

to throw everybody off I do no no go ahead I have I if not I mean they can they can research okay so according to quantum physics things can either exist as a wave or a particle okay so if You observe something it's a particle it's an object but if you're not observing in it it's a wave so it doesn't exist you can't see it okay so Einstein had a little trouble with that brilliant as he

was but he didn't realize there's a great Observer out there called God who created everything and observes it and keeps it all going right but a lot of the the concept with quantum physics has to do with when you talk about quantum physics you're talk about a level of a and subatomic particles not big things like we're looking at a screen right now right small things things you can't see with the naked eye and they have

a different quality about them the than something that's larger uh and they' there's a experiment called the double double slit theory that actually shows that things uh are they shoot electrons through his double slits they appeared actually as waves but when they were observing this process as was going through they're actually turned into particles the pattern showed as particles on the back wall so depending upon whether you're observing something or not will determine the outcome so

if it's not being observed it's a wave so that the spirit of God was hovering over over the Deep okay right another word for hovering I've seen in other versions of the Bible is um it it was wavering over it okay it was vibrating and so what's happening is things were not manifested yet it was just that water was actually waves of energy and because there was no water there was no light there was none of

that so he was hovering over it and a wave pattern is kind of like indecisive of where it's going and so when God said let there be light he spoke it into existence there's the the big bang right there yeah and and what happens is they came the light came forth and that was particles now are being shown and because God observed it and said it was good said the light is good he said he's observing

it now so that wave pattern is now particles it's matter it's material all the basic groundwork for all creation was just laid down then you know different things came on different days where you think day or not doesn't matter to me but but all the basics were laid down there first he created the light separated light from dark and so forth but this happened all before there was light and so it it's all about understanding the

quantum physics behind it the energy has just shifted everything is energy yes down to it there's no such thing as a a solid object when you look in the mirror okay I'm looking at you right now see two eyes and nose and mouth I see headphones over your ears anyway um they're not solid objects there's space between all those things you're sitting on a chair right now it's holding you up it's got to be solid it's

not it's all made up of atom molecules molecules are made of atoms and atoms have particles in them electrons protons neutrons and there's space between them so nothing's together in fact I heard an analyze that if you were to take an electron and compare it to the size of the whole atom it's like putting a a grain of sand on the 50 yard line and the rest of the atom is a whole football field W so

a lot of space in between when you're talking about that small small level there's a whole lot going on before our very eyes that we're not even looking at right and I think that today the big problem is people are not putting the dots together and that's what's happening that's why our world is falling apart someone says this well but how does that connect and that's even the big problem with our medical field they're not putting

the dots together right and you're like well this one's got a sore throat okay you see you're know some throat doctor this one's had a pain in the stomach see gastroenterologist right but how does it fit together see how I look at it is we're I'm like a general contractor the the other guys are subcontractors and a subcontractor doesn't know what the other subcontractors doing they just their job and get out right and so the thing

is you have to understand the body as a whole how God made it how he designed it and it's also important to know the core of the workings of the body and the core of the workings of the body has to do with energy and so that's why we can tap into every cell every part of the body and with my digital response technique what we do is we assess the energy level of every organ in

the body so certain level which is ideal if it doesn't match up to that I want know why why is it like for example okay um say someone congestion in the lungs okay right I could I checked her lungs out and ideal should be 10 and they're only getting like a seven right so why is it seven and not 10 so I can check I have different vials laid out as you know yes and you can

touch different vials to see what matches up to that body part the level we have numerical values that'll tell me the level of energy flow through that body part of it touches on seven that means or the lungs are at a level of seven but I want it to be 10 so I want to ask the body I'm actually my digital response technique is a digital interface between me and the patient just like you know computers

you know and and printers needed an interface to connect okay cable but I I I'm asking questions and the body responds by a muscle test how does it work it works by way of resonance resonance is when an object vibrates at a certain frequency it's contact with another object vibrate at the same frequency when they come together ITA increased energy flow through both objects so when they touch a vial that matches to their body a muscle

test goes strong because of the increase in energy and so that's what you're doing because honestly I've I've done this with you so many times and I'm just trusting I'm just trusting the process right I have and I and I know like with the I think you have the rif uh frequency too so I think we'll get into that in a sec but I know like I I'm doing this and you just knew like you just

it's just amazing like I'm sitting there and then you knew things that I didn't even know and I'm going whoa because I didn't tell you anything I you know you just knew and then you knew how to treat it so so are you feeling like when you're the muscle testing right like and you do know when someone's anxious like you have vials for mental stuff you have vials for the physical and spiritual and it's just I'm

just wondering how how long would it take a a a practitioner that you're training to learn that it it's taking time yeah he he's a smart guy he's a good chiropractor but you know we've taken on to the next level which is what do I want to do for the Chiropractic profession Tak it on to the next level but anyway he's training he's coming with me every every week he spends uh a half a day with

me because he's still working in another facility but um I I set a goal for him I want you ready by a certain time work because I you know we have you know people want to come in and I I I don't have the time for all the people I want to see right so but I I I believe he's going to come in and do well and then I'm gonna hire someone else too I want

to really take this on and free me up to teach other doctors too yes well I mean this is when I this is something you have and and God has given it to you to share to help heal and I mean you point to God in everything you do there too it's not you don't hide anything like it's not like you know I know doctors who are Christians but there's no like you go to their office

and it's just their doctors who are Christians just like in my field I have you know therapists who are Christians but they're not you know their website does not say anything about and that's okay you know every you know you everybody has to do how they feel they need to do um but for you like this whole like you know you you did that booklet seven biblical Secrets do you want to share a couple of the

secrets okay well it it's basically some basic things about I'll be honest with you I had to reread it myself years and so you know it's it's about you know doing taking good stewardship of the body okay a good Steward you know 1 Corinthians 3:16 Says um if you destroy the body God will destroy you you got to be a good Steward of what God has given you so it's about you know eating right Foods um

also about uh sharing love to people it's about um you know getting enough sleep getting enough rest you know eating the you know healthier foods staying away from gluten and dairy and bunch of other things too which people don't like to give up but I must say as they give up those things they get well yes it's Ultra processed food and and now and Dr Bern I have to tell you this what you taught me years

a and this is decades ago I mean I was 30 I'm 50 okay yeah so this is and that book you probably wrote even before I met you and and you knew about microbiome and all these things that are now like yeah cool cool to talk about you knew about those things way ahead of your time I'm telling you right now like these things that I'm like Dr B used to talk about that wait Dr in

his book and and and what he would try to teach so um tell me a little well another vibrant I know it's about like what you put in your system and just how we are supposed to be WID Steward of everything that we're given you know back to Genesis like I was studying Genesis and I was telling you about the course that I was trying to create and stuff it's not done yet but it's basically about

that like he taught us right from the beginning and I think that's where um you have something something in your seven biblical Secrets the vibrant Health uh pamphlet where you talk about like we're made from the earth that's why we need these right there's so many references to that even in the Book of Daniel okay this is really really important for today in chapter two in the Book of Daniel uh is describing that statue okay and

the statue represents you know different metals and things like that corresponding to different um Gentile civilizations okay and the very last one was a mixture of clay and iron okay so Kay represents man comes from the dust of the earth wow and iron is metal okay check wait hold on this gets better so as they combine together okay that's what the whole thing is about so what do we see going on today robots oh my combination

of man and machine why why that okay man is the crown jewel of God's creation and Satan always tries to hijack things of God he always imitate yeah and so he's his crown jewel is robots imitating man in a way so so and so what's happening is um we see what's happening even in Japan okay Japan just put out something where they the head of Japan apologize because 96 million people were vaccinated and got these Nanobots

in their body what yeah 96 million so what's about what about the robot the Nanobots or Minature robots inside the body they're going to promote that as something that's wonderful so it'll bring for it'll be cancer will be done away with uh healing would be a thing disease will be a thing of the past so what's happening is with these Nano robots they say it also can make you smarter just the thing that sucked even what

in the garden was you'll be as smart as God be smart and that's what you're gonna do say you'll be a million times smarter through these robots inside your body because they can program them yeah what but they're not telling you about the dark side of this they can program you into whatever they want so we have to be very careful we have to be smart right and so the thing is that the combination of metal

and uh Clay is what's going on today and we need to be careful and and so I I lost track what do we come how do we get over here well it's because we were talking about how we're made from the dust of the earth and you were talking about Daniel and and just you're seeing how today and the word combine right but I'm also talking about like why we need light and water and and you

know everything's in Genesis honestly like if you really like you said go into it and understand you know because you did mention some of that stuff in your pamphlet that's seven biblical secrets to um Health about what we need to do and it's not and that's the thing I think we we've come to this culture to a point now where we feel if we're not paying a whole bunch of money for it then it's not working

you know biohacking is a big deal I got into it as well and you know but I realized like I don't need to I live in South Florida do I really need to go to assana I could just sit outside for an hour yeah right it's just like that God made things for on this Earth to take care of us and to be a white Steward and a white Steward is not just about our own body

but our families our community things like that so I I want to ask you um as a Jewish man who follows Yeshua right is that right that's correct what insights can you offer about spir spirituality and health and how has your faith approached like mental health because I know we don't want to separate them because Mind Body Spirit we're all together and stuff and I also want to know how do you deal with those that think

what you do is New Age oh yeah that's a good one this this happened to me I don't get it so much anymore okay but years ago I think a a lot of Believers have matured and but this was probably going back I don't know it might have been 20 years ago uh I had a patient come in she was a Believer and um so then I checked her out and everything was fine a couple days

later she comes storming in the office she wanted to speak to me she says you need to get born again I said well you mean I need to get born again again so you know she didn't realize that and this happened way back then a lot there was um there was a John Ankerberg many years ago had a show on and uh he was and he had a book out and he had put that anything that

was not from medicine from Pharmacy is wage Chiropractic muscle testing and all that so he was speaking locally somewhere and I I approached him afterwards I wanted to hammer him with stuff like like what are you talking about man you don't know what you're talking about right I I was a little little abrupt but anyway finally they dragged me away from they had other people waiting in line to speak to them but that was pretty common

back then anything that was not from the pharmaceutical side of things was page and the Very name phakia means sorcery or Witchcraft and so that is the problem and and who started the whole pharmaceutical industry was Rockefeller was behind that mainly and he had an agenda his whole thing was to monopolize everything like he did with oil and then you finally split it up but he was making like 5 cents a gallon on oil till he

hooked up with the pharmacy and because there's a c tar based in all the medications so there's more oil going into that and so he hired this guy uh flexner Abraham flexner to go out and to screen all the different um uh postgraduate schools like for for healing you know Chiropractic uh herbal schools and schools and so some things were good he may put them up to a higher level and he he blackballed all the others

including Chiropractic right T to call us rabbit dogs okay so uh it was all you know a scheme to eliminate the competition yeah so in any case but we finally sued them and going the case and they couldn't do that anymore but in any case Pharmacy pharmac sorcery synthetic stuff the body does not handle synthetic stuff because we are a natural thing we are natural beings right and what's happening is then people are getting sick from

all these synthetic drugs synthetic vaccin synthetic this everything is is not natural to the body it doesn't even know how to handle it so the liers get clogged up kidneys get bed clogged up and it's so it's created a lot of disease so what's happening the medical profession will give you a drug for you have a headache take an aspirin why headaches is your body lacking aspirin no why not fix the cause of it so once

you get on a drug there's side effects from that drug so you need to take another drug to treat the side effects from the first one then it's a downward spiral they they have continued business throughout the rest of your life like blood pressure take your blood pressure take it the rest of your life right the problem is it's not healing anything right it's not it's managing it's managing symptoms and I get it like and I

know we need sometimes we do need to get to a place where we're kind of balanced in a way if you're able to but um that's the thing is like this is what I sell it to my clients when I do the free 15-minute consultation do you want to balance your system manage symptoms right manage your anxiety depression or you want to get to the root cause of it because the root cause is going to take

some work right it's there's no magic pill there is none there and and honestly there's no magic supplement either no right but supplementation's more natural and you know I it's like and especially nowadays with our Foods how they are if we're not like in this old you know um organic great soil and everything like that but again as Believers we understand that all this is pointing to one thing and that's for Christ to come back well

yeah I big one the big problem I see today is is in the diet where people consuming way too much sugar yes and and that's making people into a mess and a lot of uh foods with pesticides in it which are also causing great inflammation in the body uh they're having you know too much GL having gluten having Dairy a lot of caffeine and all these things are causing inflammation in the body all the major diseases

that we see are linked to inflammation whether it's heart attack Strokes cancer diabetes arthritis what have you it's all linked to inflammation so whatever you can do to keep inflammation down you're going to be ahead of the game and one of the biggest causes of inflammation though is the gluten really and can you explain that a little because there's some people that I know like I'm gluten-free because of you right and I've been doing that for

a long long time I mean sometimes I'll sneak it when I'm really you know it's it's hard in this culture and this world right to to be so strict at times but I do notice it now more than ever if I eat it but some people don't understand it I I would be honest my husband he's just like ah I don't need to you know but but I remember okay so these are the things I remember

from you when I first met you you're like you should be you should be going to the you should be pooping uh really good after every meal I'm like what do no wait there's no human and he's like no think about it and then you explained it to me you know why and how if you're eating the right things and everything and I'm like oh my gosh this makes so much sense because you talked about the

infant and how an infant right away after every meal and it's fresh pipes I remember all this Dr bcy I tell you right now all our conversations are stored right here not only in my head in my heart too but um but but you were sharing like and then the gluten I'm like gosh what what's wrong with gluten like I don't understand why can you explain it a little okay well the gluten is not broken down

very well it's not digested well in the body yeah it's true that gluten was you know wheat you know is a very big source of gluten that and certain other grains wheat um you know but uh Rye is another one and some of the others but U but those grains were mentioned in the bible okay people come back to me and say well it's mentioned in the bible why can't we eat it right well back then

they didn't have the gluten levels that we have today right because gluten will lengthen the life of the grain so they can you know have these things last longer they could sell more of it before it rots and so that that's part of the problem but it it's an irritant to the bow and it causes inflammation and so that and inflammation is what leads to various things like pling in the arteries you know people think that

colesterol is the big enemy cholesterol is not the enemy cholesterol you need a certain amount of cholesterol to um for all your hormones are cholesterol based cell on your body has a membrane around it's made with cholesterol but that that whole thing with cholesterol being the cause of heart problems right is a f this guy named anel keys back in the 1940s went around he's going to do this research going to different countries in Europe and

see the connection between uh high cholesterol and and the heart problems so he found certain Nations did match up and some didn't so the ones that didn't match up he threw that out he cherry-picked the data so it all points to what he's proving so then we've been on this cholesterol kick too when I got got out of school many eons ago um the cholesterol level was under 300 then it dropped down to 260 right 240

now it's 200 they want to get it lower and so the more the lower they make it the more Staten drugs they sell right so it's not it's pretty sad how I think it's our country and Australia are the ones that are allowed to have those commercials and propaganda so right they only two right and then of course I mean it's such a big and I I don't want to be like putting my tinfoil hat on

even though many of my listeners knows like run around with it all the time but but at the same time it's just trying to get people understand that everything that you're seeing on a screen even if it's on your cell phone it's propaganda a lot of it most of it right and it's like where do you find truth and this is me as a Christian counselor I'm like you need to find your identity and your truth

in the word of God and understand that that's that's who has all the control that's why Ecclesiastes is my favorite book of the Bible you know people are so seared by what they get on the tube it depends what stations you watch some are going to be better than others I hardly ever watch TV my wife sometimes draws me into watch a Hallmark movie careful I know the plot already it's GNA be romantic you know anyway

I don't get that always the pattern but um as far as getting the right Foods connecting the dots all these things that are missing from society today and and part of the problem with some of the covid things they did it affects part of the brain called the hypothalamus which affects your memory so they're trying to put new memories in there and get get those old ones out out there and so we we see we see

what's going on but people aren't connecting the dots they see what's going on they think oh I'm just GNA continue life it's that's part of my song I sent you about people are gonna live like like Noah said yeah it's continue to be the same old thing you know Jesus supposed to come back where is Jesus he hasn't come back all this time so he's not coming back and all this all this nonsense they're talking but

uh connect the dots see what's happening in the world today and how could you not think he's coming back soon well there's people that don't like I work with quite a few that are not understanding that at all and so I do a lot of praying and it's it's Community like we're not it's not that we're not connect like we're not connecting the dots of what we're seeing on these you know like having this being awake

you know it's also we're not connecting with each other like we should be either that's and that's you know I mean the brain fog it there's so much anxiety and depression because that's what I work with a lot you know I'm in the mental health field and that's why I'm the holistic counselor because I try to you know the things you taught me I'm trying to teach the clients that they have power and it starts with

who they are and their identity in Christ yeah if you don't know who Christ is then then you know like who do you say I am right it's like you have to have that understanding because that's your you're going to either live in Faith or fear exactly see we are co-creators with God he is the creator yeah but he has given the ability to create as well as a man thinks in his heart so he is

so you have the ability to put your own thoughts in there but you have to take you know you have to be a good Steward you know you have to every day you need to cleanse that brain yes says that and so it's all about taking control of your life what's going on there and so what as a co-creator you will attract into your life those things that you're dwelling on I heard this teaching was your

strongest emotion will determine the direction in your life love that think about that a while that that kind of blew my mind when I heard it and I and I think that's so true we we need to be good stewards of the temple with our thoughts as well creation started God had a thought I'm gonna create the universe okay you know you can't know everything of God but he's had a thought and he spoke it into

existence and and out comes the energy to create that right have a similar ability not to create a universe no create things in your life because I have patients coming in I'm sure you've seen this I have uh patients coming in one lady she come in doctor I'm dying you're not dying you're going to come your body's going to take that that message and create that situation in in your physiology but you need to change your

thought pattern you need to say hey God is healing me you know I see the change and and time and time again people will get well and and they will see the difference they'll get the the healing rate will be so much faster as well but you're going to put an anchor on your leg and keep you from getting where you need to go you're not going to get there yeah no it's true I mean and

I mean and that's what I do it's the rewiring of the brain right it's a renewal of the mind it's like do not conform to the patterns of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind yeah right and that's basically that's cognitive behavioral therapy because sometimes I have to you know I'm a clinical therapist so I have to go into that science and that jargon the psychology jargon but honestly that's how I see

it it's like no we have the ability God has given us Free Will and we have the and so I say like you're you feel like you're a bird in a cage but the cage door is open you could fly if you want you know so as we wrap up uh Dr Bernstein and I know like you sent me that song which I will be playing it at the end okay but I would like to know

like out of all the songs that you have created why that one why did you send me that one you know I think it's so much today it's really for today um I have one line in there it says as it was in the time of Noah it will be in the end and that's that's what's going on you know Noah is getting prepared for the end you know he's telling people you know God's gonna put

a heavy rainstorm you know you got to get ready got ready nobody would listen to him right they're continuing on as usual they're getting married they going a partying all the things doing and we see that today oh that's not sense God's not coming back that's what's happening today and uh and it say Yeshua is the way the truth and the life and that's just how it is there's no way of getting around it you know

I'm even trying to speak to U some of my uhic acquaintances Ultra Orthodox Jews and they're trying to get they're saying that you know they their oral law is really the way to go about it but in Jesus gave the Torah to Moses on Mount Si he didn't say this is not what I want I want the oral law he said write down everything I give you okay and that's what you have to follow and it's

is and these are the only ways it's not some alternate way I say well that's just a a hedge around the the Torah the oral law but it's it's nothing added to it nothing taken from it oh that's what we have to do so if we follow that we see what God's plan is and follow his plan things fall into place but if we ignore it which most people are you're gonna get swallowed up in the

end somehow and not rain of course not water right I believe things are going to get a lot worse well we see it but okay so let's end to encourage the listener how can we encourage their mental health right now okay because some of them are in fear some people will listen to this because some might not know who the Lord is some might know the Lord but they're still feeling that anxiety and that worry and

I'm like okay we have to get you from being a a warrior like being worried to a warrior being a warrior for God like you know Ephesians 61018 with the armor and everything so what can we do as as holistic practitioners or like what practical tips or advice would you give the listener as we end our time together well I mean I I like Isaiah 41 41:10 sayso not fear if I am with you do not

be displayed for I am your God I will strengthen you and help you I will behold you with my righteous right hand and all who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced and those who oppose you will be as nothing he says for I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you do not fear I will help you he's always there to help you we just need

to reach up to him and know he's there and the more you reach up the more he reaches down and I think that's the key turn to God and things change in your life oh what a beautiful ending to our conversation Dr bernsteen thank you so much for taking the time because I know you're busy for coming on oh of course and tell Linda hello and give her a big hug for me and all the girls

and all the girls okay and um listeners remember trust in the Lord guard your heart and renew your mind bye name no other name there is no other name by which we must be save see see the world go by fire lighting up the sky Nations will rise up and kingdoms will fall Yeshua Mia is to Lord of all yeshu is the way is the way yesu is the way way yesu is the is a way
