How Spirituality and Religiosity Affect ...

ALICE W. LEE, MD, ABIHM, ABOIM
About this episode

Holistic practitioners believe in healing the mind, body, and soul. However, it's rare to find clear examples of an association between spirituality, religiosity, and physical well-being. Tina's (pseudonym) healing journey clearly illustrates these relationships.

Despite decades of disappointment in her struggle to find the "right" medications, Tina, who had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, didn't need a long list of supplements to restore her health quickly and effectively.

What helped her instead?

Her powerful transformative process largely depended on a safer and more compassionate relationship with God and her religious community.

Come and learn more about the mysterious, invisible forces within us that often get ignored and dismissed as we rush to heal the physical body. This podcast will turn our assumptions and approaches to healing upside down and inside out!

Enjoy! Have a joyful week!
