4:02 pm
standing up for independent media. he also developed a six cd set "the mind-body code," how the mind wounds and heals the body where he brings you exercises and insights to break through the wounds of self entrapment. recently dr. martinez came from uruguay, where he lived, and i was able to interview him for the second time. we are offering his book for a 120 dollars contribution. we are offering the six cd set for a $250 contribution. we are offering the dvd of my interviews with him over the past year for 75 dollars. altogether we are offering the six cd pots and the hook for a contribution of 300 $65. one dollar per day the doctor away, i guess you could say. let's go to mario martinez right now, dr. mario martinez talking
4:03 pm
about the mind-body code. talking about the connection between mind and body. dr. martinez: science has shown that the mind and the body communicate with each other. what was missing, this is what i bring in with the book, the cultural component of it. no one looks at the anthropology of how our culture sets concepts of wealth health, longevity and even medicine is cultural. what it does is it brings in the mind-body within a cultural history. that's the main contribution i will discuss. amy: how concretely does that cultural contexts play out in the life of an individual? dr. martinez: when i started studying people who were 100 or over, i was interested in the
4:04 pm
healthy areas. i was trained as a neuropsychologist and was looking for good genes. i was pleasantly surprised to find the genes have maybe 20 to 25% of a contribution, but the rest is what i call the bio symbol the way that they live their lives, the cultures they live, the contributions these people make to their culture. that is the thing that enhances the function. with a reduced immune system you cannot say that, you cannot say -- how does it affect the t cell? it does. it comes from learning day one your cultural beliefs and you will become very, very attentive to what i call the care -- cultural heritage. the mother, the father, the priest in the church, the doctor in the hospital, those are cultural editors and those
4:05 pm
people can do placebo or they can do bad. you can be killed by the things sent to you in the culture. amy: so, what is the most important key to health? dr. martinez: to be aware that the things that you learn, for example, about say if you have cancer in the family you will not die of cancer, it means the propensity of certain genes to be expressed depending on how you live, what you eat, how you think and the culture you live in. it liberates us. the science studies what works rather than pathology. conventionally it studies the pathology of aging. health as you grow older is totally different. studying a healthy brain, a healthy immune system with a different picture of hope. amy: you know, i was just thinking of maybe one of the ailments that someone has when people get older is their vision changes.
4:06 pm
in our culture it seemed totally as a negative ailment. what about also talking about the farsightedness of what our elders bring us how we value that vision, and why that would actually impact an older person's health, to be valued? dr. martinez: the attribution is really important and what we do. let's talk about menopause. menopause would be considered a process that we go through that has been pathology i, it will happen to you, you will need hormone replacement, osteoporosis all those things, it depends on the culture. in the western culture it's considered a problem. in bolivia and other countries it's even worse, they call it the shame. we know that shame causes inflammation. women in bolivia and other places have more inflammation,
4:07 pm
more osteoporosis than women in japan that call it the second spring. attribution. amy: explain second spring. dr. martinez: it means they are going into their wisdom, going into a place where they can be a role model for younger women. that itself reduces the inflammation, because you don't have the shame over the process and your self-esteem increases your sense of beauty increases but it's a cultural thing. culture will shape biology. it is an interaction that cannot be separated. a beautiful thing, because not only is it good for the woman, but it is good for the cost of health care in dealing with these situations that are life ross esses rather than pathological states. amy: talk about cancer, what you just mentioned. one of the things you say that you cite is that the tumor utilizing the core function of the brain. what does that mean?
4:08 pm
amy: first cancer is a propensity. there are certain properties -- i'm moving away from personality, but certain traits that we find in people to develop cancer. that's not what causes it, but just a correlation. for example, i have a great fear of offending other people. basically, the world as being something dangerous out there without being able to express your anger. illnesses have an initial function. for example, let's say fibromyalgia. i will go there because it's epidemic now and we will go back to the question -- fibromyalgia every illness is an initial function of preservation. how does a little girl learn fibromyalgia? amy: explain fibromyalgia. dr. martinez: a set of symptoms that have to do with certain
4:09 pm
points on the body that hurt very light sleep, depression fatigue, inflammation, all these things, it's a symptom, there are two camps one that says it's all in your head, the other says that it does not -- that it does, and it is a learning process where the little girl learns by function that she has to sleep lightly because grandpa is coming in doing inappropriate things during the middle of the night. that's a function. as long as that function doesn't happen the body will override that then 10 or 50 year -- 10 or 15 years later she has learned hypervigilance, learned to sleep light. she taught the body to sleep light, don't go into delta sleep. delta sleep is when the system repairs. when you're hypervigilant you have a secretion of stress hormones that actually affect pain receptors.
4:10 pm
that's when it becomes a gnome is. sometimes cancer, and i'm oversimplifying, but you have to learn to be very passive. but say you had an aggressive father that you could not speak up to, you had to be very careful with the way that you express yourself. that goes on and on and you've taught your immune system to under respond. as you teacher system to on respond to other things, the propensity increases. it increases the propensity for illness and in this case cancer, and under immunity. amy: a new study last week said that the simple act of thinking can accelerate the growth of many brain tumors. it was a paper published in "sell" that showed how activity in the central cortex affected high-grade goya was representing about 80% of all malignant brain tumors and
4:11 pm
people, going to the point of the tumor utilizing the core function of the brain, thinking to promote its own growth. what does that mean? amy: -- dr. martinez: the immune system response, rather than being a protector it is more of a confirm or. confirming the believes that you take in with your culture. if you begin to have a system that sets up -- i am not worthy of good things to happen in my life well, that's the message you are sending. how could i then stop myself? well you go to your most vulnerable propensity. it could be diabetes, it could be a tumor in the brain or ms, it is a way of not causing it, it is just a way of stopping you from reaching the limits that go beyond the pale, the kinds of things that anthropology talks about. if you go beyond the pale you are no longer protected and you
4:12 pm
have to pay a price. so, illnesses have a symbolic component in addition to genetics. amy: the subtitle of your book says -- how to change the beliefs of health, longevity and success. how do you change your beliefs? dr. martinez: they cannot be done intellectually. otherwise you say to someone you should not be smoking it will hurt you, that would make sense and we would stop smoking, but we learn things better in the nervous system and it cannot be changed by intellectual wishful thinking. or example if you say that you are a good person, a good person, your brain and body would say -- no, you're not, you have no evidence of that. what you have to do is go to the things that stop you from believing the things that you do in order to liberate yourself and i believe that the ways that the culture will stop you, you could be either shamed, you
4:13 pm
could be betrayed, or you could be abandoned. those things need to be worked through at the mind-body level at each of them has what i call it healing field. for shame and honor without consciousness for abandonment commitment, betrayal, loyalty. we did some research and we know that shame causes inflammation. we are doing some work now to show that honor has an anti-inflammatory component. we are working with women who have fibromyalgia, teaching them to honor consciousness. it's complex. amy: honor consciousness? dr. martinez: let's say that you walk into a meeting and you have a strong archetypal window of shame and someone says to you -- amy, there you go, your late again, and suddenly you have this overwhelming anger and feeling, that's your wound coming out, you are basically secreting the pro-inflammatory. when you allow yourself to
4:14 pm
experience what it is, you say you are so good, so involved but you experience it, take a deep breath and change the perception and you ask yourself -- what is the honorable thing for me to do? what have i done that's honorable in my life? and then you do the honorable thing. the honorable thing might be -- i'm late and i will do what i need to do to fix this problem. and then later you can talk to this person and say -- i cannot allow you to talk to me this way. be honorable and it changes the cycle and it goes from pro-inflammatory to anti-inflammatory just by doing that. amy: so, when you talk about the contemplative practices, what do you do? dr. martinez: first you can do meditation, relaxation, anything that brings you down from the beta waves we have right now but once you get to the level where the nervous system opens the door to let you in, that's when you bring in, for example
4:15 pm
if you shame you bring the first memory you have of shame. and shame is hot. abandonment is cold, betrayal is hot. when you see a child betrayed you tell them something like -- i will give you this beautiful cup if you dance for me and you don't give it to them? that's a betrayal. they turn red, they get angry. they are not ashamed, they are angry. go back to the first, when was the first time you were ever embarrassed? you bring it in and you find the signature in your body. how does that manifest? that's my signature for shame. you experience it, you allow yourself to relax and then you bring in -- when was the first experience of an honorable deed that i had? the brain needs evidence. it doesn't do intellectual. a simple example, this patient had a wound of shame. his father, he was the town
4:16 pm
drunk and he bet someone that he either glass and he died, of course. it was the son of the guy who ate the glass. shame. stopping them from doing what he loved to do, play the cuban drums. symbolic. when he was told it you will have to have anti-inflammatory medication for the rest of your life, part of working with him, we did the technique and he went back to a time when he heard it on the radio and his father had died in the hospital, that was the first shame that he felt the tremendous amount. this is under hypnosis -- relaxation, not hypnosis. he remembered he was eight years old and on the playground at school, a big guy, and this bully comes over to hit the little guy and he stands up to the kid. he said he did not even remember that. it was an overwhelming
4:17 pm
experience that he'd never thought about. within three hours the inflammation was gone. it does not happen all the time but within two days the pain was gone, never came back. amy: what about abandonment? dr. martinez: for example you were in kindergarten and her mommy is coming in but not there. abandonment is the feeling of something that needs to happen is not happening. you feel a different process. cold fear, almost like he will go into a state of isolation to do the same thing. when was the first time the this happened? my mommy came late in the felt so afraid that i would never see her again. when was the first time you made a commitment to something? i was eight and i did karate and i got my black out. each has a signature. each has a psychological element to it.
4:18 pm
the resulting emotions always overwhelm the fear-based emotions. amy: we are talking to mario martinez. his book is called the mind-body code, changing the believes that limit your health, longevity and success. so, it is a kind of meditation that you are talking about overall in all these cases? dr. martinez: yes. amy: where does forgiveness fit into this? dr. martinez: it gets a whole chapter, it so complicated. forgiveness has nothing to do with validating the predator. it has nothing to do with you having to reconcile with that person. you don't reconcile with the rapist. what it does, that person created something for you it is disempowering and you made an interpretation of what happened to that person. that person is out there and in your worldview interpret it.
4:19 pm
we go to the interpretation and it has nothing to do with for giving the perpetrator. it has to do with you liberating itself from the enslavement that that person created for you, but not intellectually. that's what i call the old navy event. i could explain it intellectually, but that would require a system. once you go to the experience you have to identify the wound that was created that i want to forgive. it's like -- if you don't know the can of antibiotics to use for the bacteria, you cannot cure it. this is not what i wanted to forgive, what is the wound? dispersant abandoned me, betrayed me. so, you go and that is when he first identified it to have gained wisdom. not from a person -- this is a big point -- you never thank the person critiquing anything. the person did not teach you anything.
4:20 pm
you evolved from the situation and what you do is you acknowledge what happened, that what you did, for example, that person shamed you not because of what the person did to you but because of what you had to overcome in the shame and intuitively and consciousness. the attribution to greatness. the omega event is allowing yourself to free yourself from that and regain the disempowerment that that person to you. you do it exponentially by the moment that you are grateful for the thing that you learned, but gratefulness is an emotion. you did not have to deal with the predator. it's totally different, totally counterintuitive, but it works well people who are having these kinds of inabilities to forgive. within 15 minutes they do it
4:21 pm
because it's counterintuitive not intellectual. amy: a new study has found that mindfulness-based cognitive therapy may be as good as pills at stopping people relapsing after recovering from major bouts of depression. mindfulness. dr. martinez: mindfulness is a term that it's her a confused. you don't have to go to a cave. if you want to go into mindfulness, at this point is novelty in this room ballou, you are then in mindfulness. when you find mistake find that mastered something, find that something out there touches your humanity for a moment, it gives the brain mind-body coherence and what it does is it allows you to then bring up the best in you to overcome what it is you're dealing with.
4:22 pm
when dealing with mindfulness what you're doing is allowing your body and the wisdom of the body and of learning the cautions of health. it is constantly learning health. why do we have so many illnesses? things like attention deficit disorder, it's not a deficit or a disorder, it's an event -- abundance of curiosity but we have to teach up to funnel it. amy: what about curiosity? it's interesting, i think that for narcissistic people they may have very little curiosity. you can learn actions and be told, let's say someone is very involved with themselves and you try to help them relate to the
4:23 pm
world that are. you should ask the person question about themselves to make them feel better, the person you are with. for people who are intensely curious, it just comes out of something in themselves. what is it about that natural curiosity, those who have it in those who don't, and how it plays into the health of people? dr. martinez: i have not met one centenarian that was not very as. colleagues have studied this and said that one of the indicators is novelty producing and novelty seeking. if you have been an active person you love your work and you go to florida to watch the sunset, you will live for four to five years. watching the sunset is gone, but what are you learning?
4:24 pm
in a few minutes you will notice something you haven't noticed. that's one of the cautions of health, by the way, and can be taught. amy: how do you teach? dr. martinez: experientially with children, for example, you might you are going game and show me something you haven't seen. because it's built-in they go -- that's red. ok, there's a little wire there. that's the kind of ring. wonderful, wonderful. once they start to realize -- how can you apply that to school? what can you notice that you haven't noticed before? the brain builds into cohesiveness and long-term memory. amy: people that you see spiraling down, other people who somehow managed to navigate away from that or get into a rut that feel it and pull themselves out of it? dr. martinez: you can teach
4:25 pm
that. i call that a novelty plateau. for example, you are in a relationship and it's raining. your partner goes out to work and you save your partner -- embrace the rain. you both laugh and its a wonderful and great, but every time it rains you say it and after a while your partner says -- i'm tired of this -- novelty plateau. once you notice you are in the reruns, it has to do with function. so, what is it i need to do here? i'm rerunning. what do i need to do when the rain comes? give you a hug before you go to work. that breaks the novelty plateau. this gives you the navigational compass, rather than a map. which way to go. amy: you write about abundance phobia and reclaiming the birthright of wealth, health and love.
4:26 pm
dr. martinez: there is a phobia of success and abundance. part of it is for -- example, a little girl comes to her mommy and says -- mommy, look how beautiful i am. and she says -- don't say it, you wait to people, and then you deny it. i love your hair? and then when you start doing really well, what is the attribution that you get? i'm not worthy of it or other people don't have it and i do and they begin to sabotage themselves. the feelings of abundance are here and they should be here. it's a learning process. each of them has to see it. they have ceilings. it is how worthy you believe you are. i friends is that they felt worthy of everything that comes to them. good fortune is the best friend. amy: what is the compass for the private journey of self? dr.
4:27 pm
martinez: to understand that you will navigate turbulence. turbulence is not bad. turbulence is how to bring the horizon in and out for information. i have a workshop called how to navigate chaos with turbulence as your guide in order to teach you the turbulence is your guide. i was coming back and doing a workshop on secondary teaching navigating those views. amy: just a detour for a minute -- >> 94% of psychologists shock you if you don't do well. the cheese is the race, the shock would be shaming or firing. empowering means giving access to overcome the challenge.
4:28 pm
as you are navigating, my luggage was lost and i had to stay one night and work. what you have to do is never get into an argument about how to evolve. i use the family of two languages -- this is why i can't handle it, it's terrible, you go into the depths of what's going on in the new ticket the wrestler curiosity. the moment that you do that synchronicity. i go to the hotel where i'm staying with just a toothbrush and that's it. i say -- is there a good restaurant around here? than this a a burger place. and i say -- a good restaurant to celebrate something. they say yes, there's a spanish restaurant with a shuttle that will pick you up and bring you back. i get to the restaurant and have a great meal and i say -- by the way, do you have managed randy? may name a brandy that you can't get anywhere. but if you don't do that not
4:29 pm
only do you go into cortisol antihypertensive cap -- crisis but you miss that beautiful synchronicity that out there for you area amy: -- for you. amy: what are the portals of synchronicity? dr. martinez: it's happening all the time, but since our brain is linear it gives sequence to what we look at in the world. if you allow yourself to say -- ok, i want to go from a to b but i'm getting distracted, what is the out of order event i am jumping into? when you jumping you say -- what a coincidence. it's not a coincidence, you are hitting it because it turned into a different pathway. it's a portal. if you want to try synchronicity, this is what i do sometimes. i make a reservation at a restaurant. i dress or a nicely. by the way, when you go by
4:30 pm
yourself in this -- only one? the culture is not used you rewarding yourself. you make the reservation and the moment you walk in you say -- sorry, i changed my mind area you go and you let it take you where you are going to go. we get stuck in the things we want to happen rather than what could happen. amy: can you walk us through a meditation? dr. martinez: sure, yes. the first thing we need to do is feels ready. if you don't feel securities too hard to allow yourself to go into yourself. the mind-body culture of the beginning of security is just to feel something solid with your back. to know that your back is towards something solid. that comes from the cave days. you never sat with your back to the cave because you became some
4:31 pm
animals lunch. the second is to have your feet very firm on the floor to know that you are supported by earth by something. and then you close your eyes and you make two important commitments. the first is -- i am going to go inward rather than outward. the second the most important, which is that i am worthy of the time that i'm taking. sometimes we have a really hard time thinking like that. what you do is you say you are worthy of the time you're taking. you go there, you read, you pass it through and you do it over again like a mantra that your body will set. once you do that you begin to process going from safety to on safety and back-and-forth and back-and-forth and forth and what you are doing is creating to clusters and the one that's more evolved wins, the cluster of honor, commitment, and loyalty. amy: u.s. -- does the immune
4:32 pm
system have a moral code. what do you mean? dr. martinez: it does. not in the righteous way of -- the -- of course, but it can discern between different emotions. we approach those emotions to protect you and one is that if you see someone you like and smile, you begin to sit the oxytocin. why is it that if you watch an act of compassion or act compassionately you will secrete antibodies that fight upper respiratory viruses? why is it then when you're curious your dopamine drops? dopamine is a neurotransmitter hormone. if you are curious, you don't need the dopamine. that's why, interestingly, the children with the attention deficit disorders have low dopamine and you say -- ok we need to give them some medication to bring up the dopamine and make them zombies.
4:33 pm
the dopamine is down, i believe, because of the higher level of curiosity. amy: finally, the secret, the story that you told me before we went on air about your earliest experiences in cuba. you are a cuban-american. dr. martinez: yes, i grew up in miami and new york, but i went supposedly on a vacation you button 59 and my mother thought -- well, go to cuba, have a good time. i got involved with the revolution. so, i was living the dream. i was helping as a translator for the people. in walks in che guevara, asking for a translator. there's synchronicity. amy: che guevara? dr. martinez: yes, che guevara.
4:34 pm
i start translating for him. amy: not at the time a doctor, you are the translator for che guevara? dr. martinez: dr. martinez: for a while i did that. very interesting, very unassuming. he would not even where the commanding bar on the parade. dr. martinez: -- amy: he was in the government? dr. martinez: he was in the ministry of finance under fidel cast. he would speak about it and say it was working, we had to do something else. that we were doing things the wrong way. amy: how did he compare in his governing style? dr. martinez: i think that he was more direct, less narcissistic. he was as popular or more -- or more popular. it now had his way, and he hit
4:35 pm
the ties people. there was a bomb and he stopped and said -- ok, wherever that bomb exploded we are going to build a school. populous things. but no meaning. amy: you translated for che guevara, who did you translate for? dr. martinez: there were people coming in that wanted to talk about the cia. amy: people from the united states? dr. martinez: i can remember exactly what it was, people from the united states and i was so naive i said -- what does cia mean? he said he would tell me later just keep translating. [laughter] amy: so, you were part of history? dr. martinez: a little bit. amy: i have one more question. you offer a guided practice for liberation from self entrapment to psychology of forgiveness.
4:36 pm
explain and take us on that guided practice. dr. martinez: after you go into the relaxation state, you identify the wound that was created by which you are willing or not willing to forgive. some perpetrator did something to you. you identify which one it is and then you go back to the moment when that was perpetrated. you have to bring it back through embodying to see what the signature was and the moment that it comes in you let go and go into the experience. the thought is just the hook to bring it. you allow yourself to embody it and go back to the stomach to bring peace and feel your back knowing that it's something solid. feel your feet touching something firm, bring it back to
4:37 pm
the firmness. you identify it several times, just through the use of reduced intensity, because you are no longer running from it confronting it. the other part the most important is to bring back a moment of your healing field, a moment where if you -- if it was shame, how are you honorable? how have you learned not to shame other people? never give credit to the perpetrator. how have you evolved and moved away from being this empowered individual to being an empowered individual but you don't know it? this is why it so difficult. the other part that's important that i didn't mention is that victimhood has a lot of power in our culture. you have to be able to give that up as they are no longer late because they were abused as a child, you begin to own it and then you begin to look at the
4:38 pm
co-authors who are still maintaining that sense of victimhood. it is a process of cultural ecology and if you do that i explain it clearly, as you do that you will find that person the longer has the power. it's no longer powerful to you. you can integrate yourself in an act of self love rather than forgiving the person or what you're doing being liberating yourself than forgiving the person, translating into what we call forgiveness. amy: what do you mean by feelings of abundance? dr. martinez: money is concrete but you can do it with love, but let's say money. get yourself relaxed and see how much you make every year. you buy this, you buy that. this is your bonus feeling. multiply that times 10 and see
4:39 pm
what you would do with that. we would maybe help some people, maybe buy a house or go around the world or whatever. you release tension from your body. that's a turbulence of the scenes being pushed. if you don't do that, you stay there. continue to do the method. breeze, recontextualize it. what will happen is not that you'll make $1 million but will be open to the possibilities of expanding your ceilings. let's say you want to buy a red ford, you see it everywhere. but if you don't want to buy a red ford, you past your spot. then you look for the opportunities that move you into a higher level, but it's not a magical thing to work on. you cannot just tell the brain you are wonderful.
4:40 pm
if that is what allows you to expand your ceilings, you do honorable things to give you more evidence that you are not an old person and the brain will store that and give you whatever you need. amy: you have talked about psychospiritual disorders. rather, psychospiritual conflicts in misconstrued as psychiatric disorders. what do you mean by that? dr. martinez: in some cases it can mimic psychiatric problems. in this case the man came in with a bad case of acute psychosis and in the end had these episodes several times in his life. he came from a very fundamentalist religion that told him he would go to hell if he divorced. he was divorced and remarried and every time that he felt happy and felt that something might be a good thing, psychotic
4:41 pm
episode. they would put him on antipsychotic medication and therapy and it wasn't working. as we identified that what i did was i brought in a theologian from his culture who was not as rigid and considered that it would be possible to be divorced in a marriage made in hell and it was ok if god allowed you to feel joy with your new partner. as we worked through that, gradually the psychosis was gone , he was no longer psychotic, no longer in conflict and was allowed to recontextualize things in a psychospiritual way. amy: finally, what do you think of the shortest or most reliable ways to achieve wealth? dr. martinez: my learning worthiness. by learning worthiness. you might be humored, but you will not be healed. you might have wealth but not happiness.
4:42 pm
very quickly i will tell you how to build worthiness. self-esteem is divided into three parts. the first is the valuation of self-esteem. that tells you how willing you are to set fortune in your life. the second one is competence. how good are you at what you do? the third that we talk about is the affiliation is self-esteem. amy: you are watching mario martinez. a remarkable figure in the world of psycho narrow -- in the world of neuropsychology. he's developed this whole idea about bio cognitive psychology and learning from the centenarians. the people that hit 100. in virginia you are getting the mario pack, that's right, the gold pack, we are offering you his brand-new book, how to change the beliefs of health,
