Trouble sleeping?

Sluggish energy?

Frustrated?

Your liver might be talking to you!

In this episode Dr. Sina shares how her liver got her attention and caused her to leave her medical career and a surgery residency with lots of debt and no clear path forward.  But she trusted herself and went on to study Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) which she loves.  Now Dr. Sina and her liver are thriving.  

Find out what you can do to access the spring energy and help your liver.

🌿 Here are the highlights:

🔹 Power of Emotional Release: Dr. Smith's journey illustrates the incredible liberation that comes from accessing and releasing pent-up emotions. Through acupuncture, she found a profound emotional breakthrough, reminding us of the importance of allowing ourselves to feel and heal.

🔹 Embrace Change for Emotional Well-being: Transitioning from a high-pressure surgical career to one centered on holistic healing, Dr. Smith highlights the necessity of being open to change to support emotional health and overall well-being.

🔹 Aligning with Natural Rhythms: As we move from winter to spring, it's essential to support our body's transitions. Incorporating seasonal foods can aid in emotional and physical well-being, aligning our inner experiences with nature's cycles.
