Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell
Maximize your self-care plan with practical tools, reflective practices, and energetic insights that help you live, work, and lead with greater vitality. Be Well with Dr. Michelle Greenwell invites you into meaningful conversations that bridge movement, energy medicine, intentional living, and compassionate care.
Dr. Michelle Greenwell—educator, movement specialist, and leader in BioEnergetic Wellness—guides listeners through episodes designed to align intention with action. Each episode offers inspiration and grounded practices you can integrate into daily life, whether at home, in the workplace, or within caregiving and leadership roles.
This season expands the depth of the podcast through special multi-episode trilogies, allowing listeners to explore healing topics more fully. These trilogy series create space to dive deeper into the lived experiences, science, and transformational tools shared by Dr. Greenwell’s guests—supporting real, sustainable change rather than quick fixes.
A monthly featured series with Laurin Wittig brings focused attention to dementia, caregiving, connection, and quality of life. These conversations explore how presence, creativity, movement, nature, and relational awareness can support both those living with dementia and those who walk alongside them. This series is especially meaningful for families, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and communities seeking compassionate, human-centered approaches.
Each month also includes episodes highlighting Dr. Greenwell’s own teachings—drawing from Tai Chi, subtle energy, movement-based self-care, and intention-setting—to support resilience, nervous system regulation, and ease during life’s transitions. These insights are especially supportive for entrepreneurs, caregivers, and professionals experiencing fatigue, overwhelm, or burnout.
A signature element of the podcast is the tea ritual woven into each episode. Sponsored by the Greenwell Center for Holistic Health and the Cape Breton Tea Company, listeners are invited to slow down, sip intentionally, and explore how herbs, affirmations, and mindful pauses can enhance well-being. Featured blends include the Tea with Intention series and Harmony Blends, part of the Building Resiliency program designed to help unwind stress and trauma.

Facing Dementia: Naming the Hard Emotions
Illness doesn’t just affect the body — it carries emotional weight.
Fear, anger, grief, uncertainty, and questions about the future often arrive long before any physical symptoms do.
In this episode of Facing Dementia, Dr. Michelle Greenwell and Laurin Wittig explore the importance of naming the hard emotions that accompany illness and the anticipation of dementia. Rather than pushing emotions aside, this conversation invites compassion, honesty, and gentle awareness as pathways to emotional and energetic healing.
💬 Laurin shares a profound insight offered by her aunt many years ago — a simple yet powerful mantra that has guided her through life and now supports her journey with a precursor to dementia.
☕ Tea Ritual Feature:
Releasing the Warrior — with anise and cardamom — a warming, grounding blend that supports emotional regulation, nervous system calm, and inner steadiness. Spiritually, this tea invites us to soften the armour we carry and reconnect with peace rather than constant vigilance.
🌀 In this episode, we also share:
How emotions like fear and anger affect the body and energy systems
Two gentle bioenergetic techniques to calm emotional intensity and restore peace of mind
