Early on, I realized we are so sick and unhappy, because we are living, and even treating disease, in ways that work against our evolutionary biology. Thus, we fail to meet basic human needs, leading to epidemic levels of weakened immunity and chronic illness, both mental and physical. When we try to cover up symptoms without addressing the underlying causes, we continue to deteriorate. Similarly, if your house is on fire and you just take the alarm battery out, your house will burn down.
In my personal and professional experience, I have learned that in order to heal, we must shift our perceptual lens to better understand, deeply respect and work with, not against, the infinite intelligence of nature. This same intelligence resides in our cells, DNA and atoms as well as our consciousness. All of existance is intimately, intricately and quite literally interconnected.
Nature is genius. The good news is that we are nature, and when we unlock our inner genius, we can heal from cell to soul.
