Diet & Lifestyle

One of the guiding principles of Chinese medicine is that prevention is far better than cure. Indeed, Chinese medical theory has a rich understanding of the nature of good health, and how we might cultivate and maintain it abundantly throughout the different stages of our lives. The ways in which you navigate your own body and life — moment to moment and day to day — have far more influence on your overall health and healing than any outside intervention ever will. At the end of the day, you are your own best healer. Once illuminated, the beneficial diet and lifestyle modifications Chinese medicine proposes come easy to some, while for others the process of change can be quite rugged. I’m known for bringing a no-nonsense yet deeply compassionate approach to this aspect of patient education and care.
