91. The Mineral Matrix & the Motherline That Made You - Hamid Jabbar

We were made from our mothers, who were made from the earth, which is made of stardust, which is made of minerals. A well mineralized body heals itself by providing our cellular metabolism what it needs to create energy and clear exhaust. Our ancestors didn’t give their mineral status a second thought, but modern humans are almost all imbalanced (with the ill health to prove it), and minerals are wildly misunderstood. Let us remember the elemental interbeing that gives us life, understand the complex tapestry that is our individual mineral balance, and give our mitochondria what it needs to help us thrive.

TOPICS:

  • You can’t microdose (or heroic dose) your way out of a mineral deficiency- how years of working with entheogenic plant medicines negatively affected Hamid’s health

  • The interplay of trauma symptoms, depression, anxiety, physical health issues, and mineral status

  • The many reasons we’re all mineral deficient

  • Iron toxicity and why anemia is dangerously misunderstood

  • We inherit our mitochondria from our mothers, and what your maternal grandmother ate while pregnant with your mom programmed epigenetic changes into the egg that became you, so your biology- on a metabolic level- is looking for the foods your grandmother consumed 

  • Much of what we attribute to good (or bad) genes is actually the result of the mineral status of our mothers early in our lives

  • For childbearing women, there are consequences to trying to maintain a figure instead of trying to nourish ourselves

  • Human beings are deeply resilient- even when our genetic and epigenetic inheritance is lacking, even when our minerals are depleted- we can heal and thrive

  • The exquisitely choreographed transfer of minerals from mother to baby during pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding (and how modern childbearing practices disrupt these)

  • Mother nature doesn’t make mistakes & the human mind will never outsmart the life force

  • Healing from healing- much of what is recommended in the “alternative” health space makes people worse by depleting minerals (including many supplements)

  • Hamid’s mineral mentor Morely Robbins and the Root Cause Protocol

  • Addressing the underlying mineral deficiency v attacking the disease or diagnosis

  • Iron carries the frequency of [fe]ar, and copper stimulates [cu]riosity- the correlation between mineral status & reactivity to the world

  • Iron (which is magnetic) embodies archetypal masculine energy, and needs the feminine archetype of copper (which is electric) to balance it

  • The whole system relaxes when toxic iron buildup starts to leave the body 

  • Considerations around blood donation

  • Healing. Takes Time.

  • The myth of copper toxicity (which rivals the myth of anemia)

  • The dance between oxygen, iron, copper, magnesium, and ceruloplasmin

  • Oxygen + iron = rust inside the body

  • Flower pollen, copper, and fertility

  • Why the adrenal cocktail is needed if you are supplementing magnesium 

  • Thirst is a cry for minerals, not water

  • Our bodies were designed to make water and our ancestors did not drink 8 glasses a day

  • If you’re drinking unmineralized water you’re irrigating, not hydrating

  • Why hair grays and/or thins, and the possibility of reversal

  • The interplay between light, sound, cells, and minerals

  • Implications of cannabis overuse

  • The dangers of hapé (tobacco snuff) (also spelled rapé) 

  • Mineral deficiency is involved in all stages of addiction

  • Just because it’s a plant medicine doesn’t mean it’s good for you
