#411: Rethinking Heart Health: Surrender, Sunlight, and Structured Water With Dr. Stephen Hussey
Today, I’m joined by Dr. Stephen Hussey—a clinician, author of Understanding The Heart, and a powerful force in rethinking everything we thought we knew about heart disease. Dr. Hussey’s own journey began with type 1 diabetes as a child, and despite living a healthy, active lifestyle, he experienced a widowmaker heart attack at just 34 years old. In our conversation, he opens up about what it was like to face this crisis with “perfect” lab numbers, how it challenged his entire perspective, and ultimately led him to a radical new understanding of heart health and longevity.
Together, we dive into the big myths around cholesterol, why stress and nervous system signaling might matter more than lab results, and how the heart actually functions—not just as a pump, but as a vortex and even a sensory organ, deeply connected to our emotional and environmental states. Dr. Hussey shares practical ways to support your heart’s resilience, like prioritizing infrared light, grounding, circadian rhythm, and trauma healing. We also unpack why structured water, optimal environments, and lifestyle matter so much more than obsessing over numbers or supplement protocols.
If you’re ready for an episode that blends cutting-edge science, deep personal insight, and tips to truly future-proof your health, you’ll want to listen to every minute.
