Tami Amanda is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Mind-Body Coach who supports women in creating internal safety to be able to heal from trauma and toxic shame. Tami has devoted herself to studying the brain, the nervous system and why we develop in the ways we do.  She believes that her healing really started when she learned how to integrate both the mind and body.  She believes in the power of activating people's innate capacity to self-heal and empowering people to know that they can.  Tami believes that what we have labeled as "broken" is just our human waiting to be loved by us.

Tami's own journey of recovery from sexual trauma and an eating disorder has greatly shaped who she is as a coach, therapist and human.  Tami found healing through finding what helps her feel the most alive and through living in collaboration with her inner child.

He delves into the effects of light penetrating through the sinuses and eyes up into the nasal cavities, and how one should take off their clothing to ensure maximum effectiveness. He is a certified laser/light specialist and health coach. In 2018, he started the first light therapy wellness center in New Jersey where he met with clients from all walks of life, all ages, and with the gambit of issues. He started my journey 10 years ago when he suffered from peripheral neuropathy. He saw countless doctors and tried countless remedies with only limited relief. He went from running ultra-marathons and boxing to being sedentary. Within 4 months, his symptoms decreased over 80%. The improvements he felt from light therapy were life-altering. He’s now back to running and boxing and living life. His goal is to now help others get back to doing what they enjoy in life, without pain or pills. With a focus on safety and quality, he began LightpathLED to create the best home use panels on the market. He now has panels that surpass the competition at a lower price point as well as panels with multiple wavelengths and pulsing, which no other company is doing. His commitment is always to the pursuit of optimal health and well-being of his clients and their families.

Guest Quotes:

“The goal is to peel away all those things and I think even for our PRIME patients, people that we see, that still becomes the hardest part is just taking things away.” - Torin Berge, PT, MPT, PRC

“We have this profession and their job is to get people to see clearly, which again, in our world, if you can't see clearly, it doesn't help you. So, if you can't see clearly and you're straining to see, you're creating more tension than we want regardless. So, clarity is an important, it's an important thing. We have to be able to see clear, because we live in the world.” - Torin Berge, PT, MPT, PRC

  • Right Brain versus Left Brain
  • "Dominance starts to develop 9 weeks in utero with the moro reflex"
  • "What happens is our non dominant hemisphere will shut down by 75-85% (when under stress) We do not need the executive functioning that the frontal lobe does, we just need to survive."

  • How Meghan and Aleena's dominance profiles interact and balance
  • How Dr. Hannaford moves her brain and body


Quotes from The Dominance Factor:

"As you might imagine, eye dominance has important implications for reading. In normal eye teaming the dominant eye orchestrates the tracking of both eyes. The right eye naturally tracks from left to right while the left eye naturally tracks from right to left. Learners with a left eye dominant pattern will initially want to look at the right side of the page first and then move to the left, thus causing difficulties in reading languages that move from left to right, like English. Because the hand and eye are so intimately connected, letter reversals are not uncommon when left eye dominant children are first learning to read and write."

Quotes from Smart Moves:

"Thinking and learning are not all in our head. On the contrary, the body plays an integral part in all our intellectual processes from our earliest moments in utero right through to old age. It is our body’s senses that feed the brain environmental information with which to form an understanding of the world and from which to draw when creating new possibilities."

"Sensations received through our eyes, ears, nose, tongue, skin, proprioceptors, and other sensory receptors we are just beginning to understand, are the foundation of knowledge. The body is the medium of this learning as it gathers all the sensations that inform us about the world and about ourselves."

"Movement and play profoundly improve—not only learning—but creativity, stress management and health."
