Summary

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 672

Why is a balanced life a myth?

Dr. Jenelle Kim, Eastern Medicine Practitioner, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 672, to discuss the profound wisdom gained through life experiences, the power of choice and mindfulness, the importance of Eastern medicine in healing, and the necessity of flexibility and self-awareness in navigating life's challenges.

"Anxiety, panic, depression, or fatigue are imbalanced mental and physical states. The imbalance occurs when we're overwhelmed and we don't know how to balance. If you look at everything in life, it is constantly a balance." - Dr. Jenelle Kim

0:02.0	Everything in life is that dichotum, which means everything in life is a balance.
0:06.0	A lot of the time when people have a lot of anxiety, panic, depression, fatigue, all of these kind of imbalance,
