Did you know that one of the best ways to heal is to stop trying to heal?
In today's episode, I'm sitting down with Doctor Diamantis Koukouvinos for a fascinating conversation about health, healing, nutrition, supplements, and what it truly means to support the body's incredible ability to heal itself.
Diamantis believes that the body is profoundly intelligent. Rather than constantly trying to control symptoms, he encourages us to create the right conditions for health through nourishment, movement, sleep, emotional wellbeing, and learning to trust the wisdom of the body.
In this episode, we dive into:
✨ Why we often heal the most when we're not trying to heal
✨ Learning to trust your body instead of constantly trying to control it
✨ How chronic stress influences our health, and a simple way to reduce stress
✨ Environmental toxins and nutrient deficiencies
✨ The hidden impact of ultra-processed foods
✨ The three supplements Diamantis believes most people should have at home
✨ Supplements for kids
✨ Why maternal health plays a vital role in a child's development
✨ Why we should be mindful of the health information we consume online and from trusted authorities
