Master Conditioning Coach Jim Laird and Animal Wellness Expert Jackie Jolie Share: Quantum Wellness

“The average maximum security prison nurse gets more time outside than children do today,” shares Jim Laird, master strength and conditioning fitness coach with 25 years of experience. Today, Jim acts as the guest host alongside co-host Jackie Jolie, a recent graduate of the Quantum Health Practitioner Program level one, to talk about lessons learned throughout their careers from lifting weights to watching sunrises.

Jackie met Jim at a CrossFit gym. She was a college student doing all the usual things, barely eating, avoiding proteins and fats, and ignoring weight training in favor of cardio. Training with Jim changed her entire mindset, as she realized she could actually eat real foods and gain muscle tone while staying a healthy weight. When Jackie ended up with Lyme disease, Jim helped her again by introducing her to the world of quantum biology and the role of sunlight in overall health. She had been spending a lot of time outside working with horses, but had not known how the timing of sun exposure played a large role in mitochondrial health. Now they encourage others to think differently, showing people with autoimmune conditions and chronic diseases that healing can be as simple as getting reconnected with nature, seeing the sunrise, and helping the body become more resilient to everyday stressors.

The modern world is designed to limit our time in nature. Kids barely go outside to play, people work long days indoors, and all of this is viewed as normal. If you go back even just a couple decades, people were regularly spending time outside and there were much lower rates of chronic disease and obesity. It is important to lead by example and encourage others to connect with nature daily for their overall wellbeing.

Quotes

“Our modern world is designed to pull us away from nature. If you go back even to 1970, and you look at beach pictures of 1970 or pictures from Woodstock, there were no obese people. None. Half those people didn't work out. Women in the 1950s, sixties, it was unfeminine. Marilyn Monroe was one of the first women to actually strength train. And what did they do? They spent a lot of time outside. They didn't eat the garbage that we eat now. They made most of their food from scratch. They mowed their grass. They lived an active lifestyle. They went to the beach. They spent tons of time outside. They didn't have screens. So our number one battle is to look at the awesome technology that allows us to have this conversation and help as many people as we can. How do we balance being in touch with nature with the convenience of modern life?” (17:19-18:19 | Jim)
“The thing that I didn't really expect was going to happen after you see all the physiological stuff is, I had a better ability of coping mechanisms.” (23:16-23:26 | Jackie)
“The average maximum security prison nurse gets more time outside than children do today.” (28:02-28:06 | Jim)
“In our modern world, we're going to need people that lead by example.” (37:52-37:56 | Jim)
“How quickly could racism go away if we were teaching kids in elementary school that skin color is a light story? That your friend has genes that come out of Africa and their darker colored skin, because that body needs more sun than you do.” (56:24-56:41 | Jackie)
