Welcome to the Solex podcast, where wellness meets frequency, technology, and just the right amount of weight. That's actually kind of cool. Let's dive in.
SPEAKER_01Tell us a little bit about who is Melinda Liu?
SPEAKER_03I live in Tennessee. I live just about an hour south of Nashville. Um, I've been a massage therapist for 20 plus years. I'm also a success coach for massage therapists. I'm a thermography tech, I'm a frequency practitioner, and an all-around wellness enthusiast.
SPEAKER_01Now you've uh, how did you get into that? Because that is not something you just like, you know, aspired to when you're in fourth grade, you know. No. Where I was sitting there, I'm like, oh, I had a lot of work on my teeth. It's like, I want to be a dentist. No, you don't think of that like I'm gonna work in frequency, I'm gonna work in energy, I'm gonna work uh even in massage therapy. How did you get into these fields?
SPEAKER_03I started off as a client. And I feel like a lot of holistic practitioners that start as clients really have like an authentic personal story that awakens a passion in you to want to give that same gift to others. So I started off as a massage client, and then I was fortunate enough to um kind of decide that I'm gonna be in the healing arts and have this be my career. And then I had been exposed to different energy healers, and I was aware that there's, you know, these unseen forces that we're unaware of, you know, on kind of the surface level, but that it really is the basis for healing. And then my first foray into health technology was honestly an infrared bio mat. And I remember lying on that mat for the first time and thinking, oh my gosh, this is how I feel in an energy healing session, or this is how I feel when I'm doing a meditation, but I have the same experience by just pushing this button and having a relaxing meditative experience. So I loved the idea that it was so convenient to push a button and experience a healing experience. And so then I was thinking, well, what else is out there, you know, that I can um utilize for my own personal health and bring into my client sessions.
SPEAKER_01How did you find Solex?
SPEAKER_03Well, after 2020, I moved to Tennessee. And then I just I had this feeling like I want I get to be a new person now. You know, when you start somewhere new, yes, and I get to sort of like rebrand myself however I want to be. It was maybe a little bit early on the midlife crisis thing. So I was um really interested in frequency technology, and I I had the sense that it used to be uh underground and you know, yeah, not as popular. And I knew that there was a wave of um frequency medicine and frequency technology and healing coming. And uh I had already been interested in it, you know, as a practitioner. So there was that natural interest. And then I also knew in business it's good to be at the beginning of a trend.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, so smart.
SPEAKER_03So then I kind of saw this opportunity and I thought to myself, I want to be in some kind of frequency-based business. So I just walked up to this coffee shop and I said to the owner of the coffee shop, I'm gonna start a business with frequencies. And he's like, Well, then you need to know about A-Scan. And he was already right there with me on the same page, already utilizing um frequency technology. And so it was just perfect timing. It's very serendipitous.
SPEAKER_01No kidding. I mean, uh, we could probably spend an hour just what led you to approach and ask that question, which in and of itself is phenomenal. But to have that answer when you saw AOScan, so he leads you to AOScan and you have your first experience with AOScan, you start to see what it is, make sense to you?
SPEAKER_03Well, I had already been uh interested in rife machines. Okay, but I was very intimidated by the price point.
SPEAKER_01Yes.
SPEAKER_03You know, because some of them are 10,000, 12,000, and I just felt like, oh, you know, I'm not quite there yet and wanting to invest those types of numbers, even just for my own personal health. Um so I was sort of familiar with the idea that there are these databases of frequencies for everything. And I loved that concept, but I just felt intimidated by the other products on the market. So then when I was exposed to um AOScan, it was very user-friendly and very like um easy for me to just pick up. And it was like a kid in a candy store, you know, like, oh my gosh, I have all these frequencies to play with. Woo!
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and so many. I mean, when you're talking about when you actually hear the number, like over 170,000 data points, you're like, wow. Are there that many parts in my body, right? Are there that many things to really look at and consider? No, but there are, and it's fascinating when you start to understand how energy is in everything, how vibration and frequency are a part of everything. Um if you're open to that idea, it really unfolds uh so many new opportunities. It doesn't mean we give up what we already know and are comfortable with, right? Like we were talking um just earlier today. Uh you came into town, you're at the hotel, I said, Hey, how'd you sleep last night? And your response was uh not the greatest.
SPEAKER_03Not the greatest.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. Which is not uh not a um a unique thing for you.
SPEAKER_03No.
SPEAKER_01No, you you should kind of struggle with some sleep challenge and have struggled with sleep challenges for a while.
SPEAKER_03Yes. Yeah. For at least a couple years, I would say it's it's been less than ideal for sure.
SPEAKER_01Yeah. If you don't mind sharing it, and feel free to not share anything more than you want. What like is it just a short night's sleep? Is it a lot of disrupted sleep? What what kind of sleep process do you struggle with?
SPEAKER_03Um it's kind of all over the board. Uh occasionally I'll have a hard time falling asleep, but sometimes I'll fall asleep fast, but then I'll wake up and stay awake in the middle of the night. And um, you know, then I'm kind of struggling to get back to sleep. And and even occasionally I'll wake up at four. And in my mind, I'm like, I've got two more hours. Like, get that last two hours in, but I'm just laying there at four, you know.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and you're trying to go back to sleep.
SPEAKER_03Yes.
SPEAKER_01You're like, please, as you watch the clock tick, tick, tick, and you're like, oh, I don't have two hours left. I have an hour and a half, I have an hour, and I have an hour. That's a struggle. I I think a lot of us go through that. In fact, whether it's it's not necessarily always diagnosed as insomnia, but insomnia is a is a big challenge, and and that is in and of itself interesting. In fact, I came across this statistic that 30% of the population suffers from some form of insomnia.
SPEAKER_03Oh, I believe that.
SPEAKER_01When you think of the if you take the U.S. population, 332 million, that's about a hundred million people.
SPEAKER_03Yikes.
SPEAKER_01Right? Crazy number of us that struggle with some sort of sleep challenge. I mean, uh, you know, and there are various parts and and ways to look at insomnia in and of itself. But when you then start to look at the tail-on effects of insomnia, right? When you think about um the struggles with, you know, heart struggles, uh, blood pressure challenges, uh, you face other things, even like psychological like depression and things like that, all feed off of that uh situation. And yet we sit there at waking up at four in the morning and okay, I have two hours left. Please, please sleep. You know, can I can I get back to sleep? And that was one of the interesting things. When we came out with sleep, when we were working on this product, sleep by Solox, we were very interested. Uh, we always do it in this approach, right? We never take the approach of just throwing something else out there. We don't want just great, there's a thousand sleep products out there, let's just be another one.
SPEAKER_00Right, right.
SPEAKER_01Because that's that doesn't help. It doesn't do anything for anybody. But our approach is if we can make it better, then do it. If you can't, leave it alone. Right? And so when we looked at uh what could we do with this massive challenge, right? 100 million people in the United States alone with some significant sleep challenge. How do we address this? And so that's where we kind of took the approach of there there are three prongs to the sleep product. One is addressing the nervous system, calming the nervous system. Is there are there inhibitors that can be put into place that are very um attractive to the body that allow the body to just take the nervous system and nervous system and just calm things down? But then you have the muscular skeletal system that also needs to relax, you know, twitching muscles, things like that, where you're trying to address let's calm the nervous system, but let's also calm the muscular skeletal system. And then you don't have this problem. I do because I'm old. And I woke up in the middle of the night and I have to go to the bathroom. It how you talk to any old person, and they most of them are facing this challenge, and there's some sort of liver blockage taking place. And so we added ingredients to help calm that blockage effect. Meaning let's uh smooth things down so that that part of the process that takes place and is in full effect while you're sleeping actually doesn't have any blockages in it, so that yeah, it wakes you up and you have to do something about it.
SPEAKER_03I've heard that the liver has a role in insomnia, and I wasn't really sure why.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, isn't that interesting? So when you look at that, I mean we're we're we're trying to address this, but one of the key things was it didn't make, yeah, okay, there's there's a lot of products that have some of the ingredients in there, and a lot of products have some of the other ingredients. Nobody really has this kind of combination. Okay, good, but not great. But that's where nano came into effect, right? You're familiar with our nano products.
SPEAKER_03I love your nano products, right? Yes, big fan.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, me too. Like blue and Paul's and D3K2, all of these love these, right? But love the way that the body can use them so efficiently because you we've taken the time to to separate things, to make things smaller, right? Nano, if you if you've never heard of it, nano is the one billionth of a meter, so small, super tiny. Like it's hard even to comp comprehend. We can't really get our mind around how tiny that is.
SPEAKER_00True.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, it's so small. But the effect of that actually is even a little bit more impressive, I think. Umano product, what kind of product would it be for sleep? Would it be some sort of pill form or powder form?
SPEAKER_03Oh my gosh, I've tried so many things. Oh gosh. I mean melatonin, right? Yeah. And uh, you know, sleepy teas, you know, herbal remedies, and um, I've even tried some cannabis. Yeah. And just yeah, so many different things, um, with you know, varying effects, and some of them help a little and some of them help to go to sleep faster, but then maybe they wear off at some point. Um, but I do find that some of them are a little aggressive. Yeah. And some the ones that are aggressive to me, I feel like there's side effects from that, like it's harsh on my system, kind of really making it almost worse the next day.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, that that's actually a really good point. Um, I think the that the whole uh nutraceutical industry in and of itself has great intentions. I mean, there's a lot of bad intentions in there too, but I think the overall foundation to help with sleep or to help with some other ailment, the intention is good. And that's that's a good starting point. But if we leave it there, we end up doing kind of what you've experienced and I've experienced where sometimes we just load our bodies too much. It's extreme, we put way too much stress right on the situation, and that's where I think nano is so effective and so valuable. Uh, as we unfold the reach of nano, we essentially what we learn really quickly at that size is that the reach is so much farther than um well, so much farther with so much less, if that makes sense. If you take a whole bunch of small things and unfold them out, you collect them all together, it becomes bigger than just one big thing folded out in and of itself. Uh the imagery there is um the idea of you you can take the circumference of the earth, the whole surface of the earth, and if you were just uh lay it out in a square, it would be a certain set of dimensions. Or you could nanoparticle size the earth and take all of those tiny one billionth of a meter pieces and fold all those up and connect them all together. And you're talking about being an exponentially bigger than the earth itself unfolded because there's so many parts involved. Um, when you think of that that the effect of just a small pinprick amount of material actually reaches so much further than something visually bigger. It's it's it's kind of uh almost seems backwards, and that's kind of where the United States in a supplement market as a whole has really driven toward, right?
SPEAKER_03More is better.
SPEAKER_01More is better, right? Just give more, just throw more at the person, and they're bound to feel something, right? They're bound to experience something, but then they may feel something that they didn't want to feel.
SPEAKER_03Right. Like your body had to do so much work to process it, yeah, and then it's tired from all that work.
SPEAKER_01Yes, exactly. And we do that. We we by loading so much ingredient for our body to digest and to process and to clean, we're actually giving it, we're taxing it more than it needs. And so in sleep in and of itself, we tried to be pretty elegant with how we put these amounts together. In fact, like so many people have heard, if you use melatonin to try and help us sleep, if you've used it for a while, you've probably at some point been concerned that boy, I my body can adapt to this and adjust to this. Like a tolerance, a tolerance level to it, and then it can get too much, and either I have to take too much or I have to go to something else altogether. And so low dosing actually in melatonin actually has become more effective on so many fronts. Yeah. And so that's what you kind of see in sleep itself. Lower doses, but with the idea of that low dose being nano, the reach is far. And so we try to put this mix of not only effective ingredients together, but in such a way that the amount doesn't cause any stress in the body, because your body doesn't need any stress while you're trying to fall asleep. Let it do its work and let it be refreshing in and of itself because there is this no excess. Essentially, let's use it all up. Let's let's make use of what is given for the effect we're trying to achieve, which is to sleep and sleep the whole night.
SPEAKER_03Right.
SPEAKER_01And then have a good morning, right? That's what we all hope for.
SPEAKER_03Yeah, sounds good. Sign me up.
SPEAKER_01And I'm in the same boat, I've been I've been there. One of the things with these kind of products that's interesting, though, is that um every person is different. And when you're dealing with natural ingredients in and of themselves, every person's gonna react a little bit differently. When they react differently, um you'll find that some people may have an experience that very night, the first time they take it. But others require some greater degree of blood saturation of those ingredients before it actually is noticeable.
SPEAKER_03Right.
SPEAKER_01Not that it's not doing something, it's just is it noticeable?
SPEAKER_03We're all starting at different places.
SPEAKER_01That's perfect. Yeah, perfectly said. And so that's where like when you think of something like sleep, you're in fact, there are a lot of research studies out there that say this is a one to thirty, a one week to thirty day process to get the blood saturation level sufficient. Well, I'm thinking of GABA in particular, um, before its uh usefulness in the body. And this is based on their clinicals and obviously the varying degree of the patient in those clinicals. But they found effectiveness in one week to 30 days. Well, if you think, well, 30 days for some of us, that's a long time to wait, but we might as well get on it.
SPEAKER_03I totally agree with you about the saturation for the 30 days that some people need. But can I tell you what I've experienced with the nano?
SPEAKER_00Oh, yes.
SPEAKER_03Um, it's not subtle, you know, it's it's fast acting and you feel it right away. I I like to think of myself as I call it kinesthetically aware. I think that we have different types of intelligences in our body. We have intellect, we have emotional intelligence, and we have body intelligence or kinesthetic intelligence. So that's how I live my life is like I'm always feeling things in my body. Do I feel this? Do I not feel this? And when I had taken just regular supplements before that weren't nano, um, it was a question like, do I feel this or not? And I would pay attention. And and a lot of the times I really didn't know if I felt anything, but not with the nano, because, like you're saying, this reach is so fast acting and it covers so much in a short period of time. I feel it right away.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_03Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01And and it really you should, right? Because that particle size should be absorbing the minute it hits in your mouth. Yeah. As soon as it hits a surface, right? It's just starting to go in, get into the bloodstream, and start to do what it needs to do, go where it needs to go. I love that. I think that that's a the um the experience I would hope that you would have. It's the experience I hope to have myself, right? As I use these nanoproducts. And I think that that's uh um kind of the edge really of challenging the status quo of whatever should be made, can be made, is that it can it be made better? Great, let's make it better. If you can't make it better, leave it the way it is. That's wonderful. But we should always, even Solic should be looking at itself the same way of is there something that you've made that you can make better? Great, make it better, right? And we want to be challenged by others in the in the process. Well, I I I think this is a very interesting step as far as as we narrow the funnel of support within the body to specific areas. And in this case, we've been talking about sleep that is an avenue that really could solve so many tail-on effects uh in and of itself. And to your point in the beginning, how you got to Solex through the scanner is we learn, and we've said this before, um, I could imprint the frequency of an apple and put it on a cephy done and put it on my and and get the benefit of that.
unknownOkay.
SPEAKER_01Of the frequency, but the flip side of it, the other side of life is also the tangible, the chemical, the the nutrient side in the in the apple itself. What happens when frequency aligns with the actual frequency of the thing, it's in perfect harmony. It comes together exactly the way it's supposed to. So even sleep frequency, things that carry that frequency combined with the things that induce that frequency in the body, there couldn't be a better alignment than having that combination.
SPEAKER_03Like yin and yang.
SPEAKER_01Yes, that's exactly right. I love that. Well, Linda, we've loved having you here. Thanks for sharing with us.
