Too often, we renounce our body and all of its amazing abilities — relegating it to condemnations about how it looks.
But what if instead we place our attention on what a blessing it is to nourish and care for ourselves so we can live our best lives?
By bringing your body into balance, you allow it to function optimally so you can not only feel better, but ultimately enjoy your life a lot more.
It’s pretty amazing, and we’re grateful for people like Dr. Mark Hyman who are tapped into the profound ways we can help to heal our bodies beyond traditional means.
Mark is the Director of the Cleveland Clinic’s Center for Functional Medicine and an 13-time New York Times bestselling author. He’s also a dear friend of Emily’s.
In 2016 Emily was honored to teach Mark The Ziva Technique, and they’ve since talked many times about how meditation is medicine — helping with sleep, the neurological effects of stress on our brains and bodies (and how meditation reverses them), and why today Mark says he doesn’t have time NOT to meditate.
Mark says, “If there was something you could do every day to boost your focus and productivity, feel energized, reduce stress, sleep better, maintain a positive outlook, and support whole-body health, wouldn’t you do it? It’s for all these reasons, and more, that I consider meditation a foundational pillar to good health.”
We cut together a clip from a podcast episode Emily did with him on “The Doctor’s Farmacy.” Click here to watch it now.
