More about Dr. Mark Morningstar:

Dr. Mark Morningstar is a world-renowned chiropractic physician, clinical researcher, and the founder of Back Genius. With over 20 years of experience and more than 60 peer-reviewed publications, Dr. Morningstar has dedicated his career to proving that scoliosis is far more than just a "curve in the spine"—it is a complex, whole-body condition rooted in genetics, neurobiology, and metabolic health. His groundbreaking research was the first to link scoliosis progression to neurotransmitter imbalances, leading to innovative nutritional protocols that help "re-train" the brain to hold the spine in a straighter position. Dr. Morningstar holds diplomate status in Spine Medicine, Integrative Medicine, and Clinical Nutrition.

He is the developer of the Scoliosis Activity Suit, a core training suit specifically engineered to create dynamic corrective forces during daily movement to improve scoliosis curvatures. Finally, he is the host of the Scoliosis World podcast, where he breaks down the latest research on spinal flexibility, patient management, predictive scoliosis modeling, and functional medicine strategies specific to scoliosis patients.

From Burnout to Balance: Using Breathwork to Reset Your Nervous System & Improve Energy

Wednesday Feb 25, 2026

Host Kate Boyle explores how nervous-system-driven burnout differs from ordinary tiredness and why rest alone often isn’t enough.
