THE VIBE SCIENCE PODCAST

Movement doesn’t have to be complicated — it just has to be intentional.

In this episode of Vibe Science, host Ryan Alford sits down with Lara Heimann, physical therapist and founder of LIT Yoga, to explore how smarter movement — not longer workouts — leads to better health, mobility, and longevity.

Lara explains why the body responds to movement like physics, how the nervous system influences strength and flexibility, and why many traditional yoga and stretching practices fall short. Drawing from decades of experience in physical therapy and neuroscience, she reframes yoga as a functional, accessible, and empowering practice for all bodies.

This conversation is especially powerful for people who:

Feel “too stiff” or “not flexible enough” for yoga

Don’t have an hour a day to work out

Want to move better as they age

Care about injury prevention and nervous system health

In this episode, we discuss:

Why just 20 minutes of movement can create lasting change

How dynamic, weight-bearing movement hydrates joints and fascia

The difference between temporary stretching and real mobility

Why starting on the ground improves strength and coordination

How movement reshapes the brain-body connection

What it actually means to “age well”

Lara also shares how her LIT Yoga methodology was born from working with neurologically impaired patients — and how those same principles can help everyday people move with more confidence, resilience, and ease.

What if your anxiety, chronic pain, or exhaustion isn’t something to “think” your way out of?

Somatic therapist Raquel Deville joins Vibe Science to explain how the body stores unresolved stress — and why tremoring, shaking, and other involuntary movements are essential for true nervous system regulation.

In this episode, we explore:

How trauma lives in the body, not just the mind

Why neurodivergent individuals experience stress differently

The science behind TRE (Trauma Release Exercises)

Why socially “awkward” body responses are often signs of healing

How to safely reconnect with your body’s natural release mechanisms

This conversation is especially powerful for listeners navigating ADHD, autism, giftedness, chronic stress, or burnout — and anyone curious about somatic healing beyond talk therapy.

What if healing starts with feeling safe in your body?

In this powerful episode of Vibe Science, we sit down with Dr. Dave Rabin, neuroscientist, psychiatrist, and Chief Medical Officer of Apollo Neuroscience, to explore why modern mental health treatments are falling short — and what science already knows that most people don’t.

Dr. Rabin breaks down the neuroscience of stress, PTSD, and recovery, explaining how soothing touch, vibration, music, and safety signals directly regulate the nervous system. He also dives deep into the controversial FDA rejection of MDMA-assisted therapy and why non-drug solutions like Apollo Neuro are becoming critical tools for healing.

This conversation bridges hard science and human connection, revealing why loneliness, chronic stress, and disconnection may be the biggest public health crisis of our time — and how we can actually fix it.

Topics Covered

Why traditional PTSD medications only work for ~30% of people

How MDMA-assisted therapy achieves up to 88% response rates

The FDA’s controversial MDMA decision explained

How the autonomic nervous system controls healing

Why “feeling safe” is the gateway to recovery

The science behind Apollo Neuro’s vibration therapy

Loneliness as a public health crisis

Why modern medicine treats symptoms instead of causes

Key Takeaway

Healing doesn’t start with pills — it starts with regulating the nervous system and restoring a sense of safety in the body.

Chronic pain doesn’t come from one place — and it can’t be healed in isolation.

In this episode of Vibe Science, we sit down with Vinny Crispino, founder of Pain Academy, to unpack his journey from elite Division I swimmer to a life-altering back injury that forced him to rethink everything he knew about healing.

After years of surgeries, rehab protocols, and specialists that focused only on the injury, Vinny discovered that true healing required a broader approach — one that integrates movement, nervous system regulation, emotional awareness, and whole-body function.

This episode explores:

Why pain often lingers long after injuries “heal”

The limits of Western medicine — and where it shines

How emotional stress shows up physically in the body

Why compensation patterns create chronic pain cycles

The power of awareness in reconnecting mind and body

How healing pain often transforms relationships and quality of life

Vinny shares why pain is not a flaw — but feedback — and how learning to listen to your body can unlock physical freedom and emotional clarity.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, broken, or afraid to move again, this conversation offers a radically empowering perspective.

Keep up with Vinny!

What if healthcare could be free, instant, and powered by AI?

In this episode of Vibe Science, host Ryan Alford sits down with Charles Nader, Founder & CEO of DOC.com, to explore a bold mission: delivering free basic healthcare worldwide using telemedicine, artificial intelligence, and a scalable pharmacy-driven business model.

Charles shares how studying medicine in Mexico exposed a massive global healthcare access problem—and how that experience led him to build a platform that connects anyone to a doctor 24/7, with no insurance required.

They break down how AI assists doctors before consultations, why most health issues can be solved in under 15 minutes, and how DOC.com monetizes ethically without compromising patient care.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why access—not doctors—is the real healthcare crisis

How free telemedicine actually works

How AI improves speed, accuracy, and scale

Why preventative care beats specialization

How DOC.com pays doctors while keeping care free

Real stories of lives saved through telemedicine

Why DOC.com is preparing for a NASDAQ listing
