Episode 306: Dr. Christian Gonzalez: Doctors Advice on Why You Can’t Heal Your Body without Healing Your Mind

In this episode of Habits and Hustle, I chat with Dr. Christian Gonzalez, a doctor turned healer, about the powerful role of emotional repression in our overall well-being, the importance of feeling our body and understanding the emotions associated with different parts, and how people become people pleasers, overachievers, and workaholics. We also discuss healing with psychedelics, the truth about authenticity, and the difference between masculine and feminine energies.

Dr. Christian Gonzalez, aka Dr. G, is a naturopathic doctor who is passionate about environmental medicine as well as the mind, body, and spirit connection. He is the founder of Elm, a safe haven for healing, and host of the Podcast Heal Thy Self.
