#120:  Health & Wellness Under Any Circumstances w/ Dr. Du La, ND

On this week’s show Gary chats with Dr. Du La, a Toronto-based Naturopathic Doctor registered in Traditional Chinese medicine, where naturopathic care treats the entire person, not just the symptom they are complaining about. Dr. La’s parents instilled in her a hard work ethic, and since she grew up in a family with not much money, her parents got creative in putting healthy food on their table.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

Why it doesn’t take a lot of money to eat well

Why Naturopathic doctors believe the body has an innate ability to heal itself

When it can’t, they use natural therapies to supplement the immune system

Why NDs don’t apply ‘band aid’ solutions, but targeted therapies to get to the root cause

Then root cause of many health issues today

How meditation can help get rid of ‘monkey brain’

How mindfulness can help keep distracting thoughts away

The role of mindset and why it’s 90% important

What are Dr. La’s ‘non-negotiables’

How self talk should be conscientious, not perfect

How her practice changed during the pandemic, including acupuncture

What are the 5 pillars - sleep, movement, nutrition, mindset, community and how they work

Traditional Chinese energy meridians
