This week I am excited to introduce you to my dear friend, Rob Aptaker.Rob is one of those humans who always inspires me to be a better human myself. His gentle manner, sincere interest, and unwavering listening always compel me to more presence and humility. You might be surprised to learn that Rob's own healing journey began as a struggle with rage, a starving ego, and an inability to find his place and purpose in the world. Like many of us, he struggled for years to fit in.Luckily, Rob's early fascination with and access to the natural world allowed him the space to cultivate powerful connections to himself and something larger. He began to study the many uses of wild plants and fungi, and to learn wilderness survival practices. Ultimately, it was this spiritual affinity with nature--and his deeply held feeling that the culture he was living in was missing a vital element of meaning and connection--that led him to seek out Native American medicine people and ceremonial leaders as teachers.For the past 45 years, Rob has taken part in ceremonies and cultural activities with Native People and elders from all over Turtle Island (North America). Spiritual fasts and ceremonies, along with conventional therapy and Mens' Work, have helped him to gain a measure of balance, meaning and purpose in life.If you would like to contact Rob Aptaker, you can email him at robaptaker@gmail.com***************************************************************************The Healing Grove Playbook is now available for purchase!

This week I would like to introduce you to Ari Whitten.Ari Whitten is a best-selling author and the creator of the Energy Blueprint system. A chronic fatigue and energy-optimization specialist with a world-wide following, Ari hosts the Energy Blueprint Podcast, bringing together leading experts in the field of fatigue and energy enhancement for the education of all. Many of my favorite holistic health thought leaders are folks that Ari has featured there, so I thought it appropriate to ask Ari to share his learnings with us, and he did not disappoint.With a Bachelor’s of Science in Kinesiology, two advanced certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine, and recent completion of coursework for a PhD in Clinical Psychology, Ari has plenty of book learning on the topic of energy enhancement. But he also comes by his knowledge the hard way: from lived experience. In his youth, Ari went down hard with Epstein Barr virus, developing the chronic fatigue that would give direction to and fuel passion for the rest of his career. He has spent the last 20 years obsessively researching the most effective and evidence-based approaches to energy enhancement, something which my patients with complex, chronic mystery illness need more than anyone--though everyone can benefit from the simple tools he shares.To learn more about Ari Whitten, you can check out his website here: https://theenergyblueprint.com***************************************************************************The Healing Grove Playbook is now available for purchase!

This week I am excited to share the first of what I hope will be many more interviews with a very special person who is also a doctor-in-training. Meghan Tveit is a third year medical student at George Washington School of Medicine in Washington, D.C. A member of the 2020 graduating class of Harvard and my eldest son's girlfriend, Meghan appeared on my doorstep when the world shut down and then spent 6 weeks "bubbling" with my family during quarantine, during which time I developed a deep love for her bright, fun, compassionate, thoughtful, and curious approach to Pretty Much Everything. I know you are going to love not only Meghan, but what she has to share about her journey on the path to becoming a doctor.               ****************************************************************************The Healing Grove Playbook is now available for purchase!

Karen Atkins is a Brooklyn-born New Yorker turned Northern California girl. She spends her days practicing tai chi and qigong, writing and recording music, producing vitality lifestyle videos, creating educational alternative health programs, and taking walks in the foothills of Mt “Tam” as often as she can. But she wasn’t always the picture of health. In her early 20s, she felt so awful she couldn’t imagine ever being healthy and happy again. But 20 years and 40+ healing modalities later, she’s pretty much figured out the secret to a lifetime of energy, and now she is dedicated to sharing her hard-won knowledge with the world. In this episode, there is a gem of a tool that helps us connect the left and right sides of the brain.

This week I am so excited to share a conversation that I had with Dr. Bill Rawls back in November of 2022. In this compelling conversation, you will learn about the role the microbiome and pathogens can play in chronic illness. Bill Rawls MD, author of Unlocking Lyme: Myths,Truths, and Practical Solutions for Chronic Lyme Disease and the Cellular Wellness Solution, is a 4th-generation physician who has dedicated his life to medicine. But when faced with a personal health crisis in his late forties with Lyme disease, everything changed. In his quest to regain his health, Dr. Rawls was confronted with the limitations of conventional medicine and knew he had to find his own path to restore wellness. For the past 15 years, he has extensively studied the science behind herbal therapies and new sustainable approaches for protecting health.
