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.

Goals Lead the Way
The idea of goal setting or having an intention has been the center of focus for the recent programs that I lead. If you want to get to a destination, you need a road map that indicates how far to get there, and what route to take. In order to have that information you need to know the absolute destination.
Often this becomes a to-do list, or a bucket list, or an avoidance exercise because we don’t really know what we want, or how we would want to get there.
Today with Compassionate Living we are going to explore connection with others with the desire to reach out to help, but we are going to go beyond that. We are going to talk about listening to the needs of the other, not our wants for the other. Through this exploration, we can then look at the skills and advantages we may have to achieve the goals they are indicating to us.
Charlene and I have been talking about the Moyo Family in Milawa and what some of their needs have been. Today we explore how hearing their needs and bringing focus and clarity to their situation has provided us with a means to reach out to others who can help. This is an interesting discussion as we move past emergency or urgency decisions to long-term change and collaboration.
We wish to share and acknowledge the support of gracepads.com who recently visited the Moyo family to share the Grace Pad Kits, and to look at sustainable opportunities for the family. This is one special episode to enjoy.
As always, make a cup of tea and relax, and if you haven't tried the Mission4Change CommuniTEA blend, perhaps order yourself some today. capebretontea.ca
