Divine Medicine: The Road to Wellness
The road to wellness starts and ends with you. There is tremendous healing capacity within each of us, but harnessing that energy requires more than a good meditation practice. Rather than band-aid what ails us, let's talk about how to get to the root of dis-ease and heal together. After suffering a stroke in 2019, followed by severe burnout in 2023, my healing came by utilizing both western medicine, as well as alternative practices like reiki, breathwork and yoga. I will share stories of my own healthcare experience, as a patient and healthcare worker of 22 years, as well as welcome others to share their experiences in healthcare from both sides of the bed.
