Functional medicine recognizes that everything in the body is interdependent and interconnected, and to heal we must get to the true root cause of the “dis-ease.” All too often, we take a pill for every ill—a band-aid—and it is necessary and lifesaving at times. While a pill does treat symptoms, we rarely work on understanding, resolving and healing the true root cause of the health problem.
In other words, we are “fine” right up to the moment that we are diagnosed with a disease.
It’s hard to change if we aren’t empowered to fully understand how our body’s systems work together to keep us healthy and energized. Unfortunately, many of us know more about how our computers work than our own bodies. It also takes time, responsibility, honesty, and vulnerability to make a behavior change last. It is hard to make changes alone and in isolation, particularly in our culture. We need each other’s support. This is why I do both individual and group programs. Together, we can educate, inspire, and empower each other to finally get our bodies aligned, teeming with vitality, energy, and wellness.
