MY PHILOSOPHY
- EDUCATION IS MORE POWERFUL THAN MEDICATION -
Francois Voltaire, 18th century French philosopher and writer, observed that “The art of medicine consists of amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.”
This insight, together with primum non nocere – Latin for “first do no harm” – is the best advice I was given in all my medical training.
Our body has the intrinsic capacity to heal itself....if we let it.
Western medicine is concerned with damage control and amelioration of symptoms. This has its place. But why not live in a way that promotes health, vitality and happiness so that we minimise the need for disempowering and costly interventions?
Contrary to popular belief, a healthy lifestyle is not rigid, restrictive or gruelling. A healthy lifestyle is joyful, uplifting and liberating. And a healthy lifestyle means more than just the absence of disease.
- A healthy lifestyle means having optimal energy and vitality.
- A healthy lifestyle means we give the best of ourselves to everything we do and everyone we love.
- A healthy lifestyle enables us to perform at our peak.
- And a healthy lifestyle means feeling truly alive and exuberant.
When was the last time you felt exuberant?
My aim is to give you a taste of exuberance – and to get you hooked – for life… and longevity.
