When Kien's health took a dramatic turn, he faced the stark reality of diabetes and high blood pressure. It was then that he learned the hard way that daily choices, from fork to thought, have the power to be both poison and panacea. In this heartfelt episode, Dr. Kien Vuu, MD shares his own transformation by diving into the role our diets, consciousness, and the chronic stress of today's world play in our health. We examine how the timeless wisdom of our ancestors, often overshadowed by modern technology, might just be the solution.
This episode peels back the layers of our behavioral patterns, forged in childhood and solidified through trauma, to reveal how they dictate our adult health. We discuss how psychedelic therapies, like ketamine, are breaking barriers within our minds, offering a new path to healing. This conversation is a tapestry of personal integrity, spiritual awakenings, and the profound impact of leading a life aligned with our deepest truths.
