Ever felt like conventional healthcare is just patching up the symptoms without addressing the root cause?
This episode uncovers the limitations of traditional health, lifestyle, and diet approaches, emphasizing the necessity of a holistic, trauma-informed, and epigenetics-based perspective.
By considering the whole individual and delving into factors like genetics, lifestyle, and values, we aim to uncover root causes and develop healthy lasting habits rather than patching up symptoms. Through examples covering mental health and weight management, we emphasize the importance of addressing underlying processes for long-term well-being.
I also advocate for personalized recommendations that genuinely address root causes to foster your long-term success with the health habits that you implement.
Prepare to transform your approach to wellness and embark on a path to sustainable physical and mental well-being!
