For the second year, the Greenwell Center for Holistic Health is proud to participate in Podcasthon, joining podcasters around the world who dedicate an episode to sharing the story and impact of nonprofit organizations making a difference.

In this special episode, Dr. Michelle Greenwell and Natascha Polomski explore the work of the Canadian Association of BioEnergetic Wellness and highlight CanBeWell.org as a growing resource for wellness plans, courses, events, and community support. Together, they discuss the importance of empowering people with practical skills—such as muscle monitoring and biofeedback—so individuals can become active participants in their own wellness journey rather than focusing solely on dis-ease.
