In this special interview with Christine Ruch, she shares more about this journey and how your active living choices can change the way you feel. Enjoy this latest Be Well with Dr Michelle Greenwell Podcast episode....

What value do the arts - dance, music, art, crafts, tai chi, yoga, mean to our healthcare system? What role does our culture and heritage play in our sense of security and belonging? How does a community thrive and rise above healthcare challenges? We do this by living with vitality at the forefront with programs that inspire us to feel passion for living. Economics are not the way to measure those qualities of life. See how the federal and provincial governments actually measure our wellbeing and make healthcare decisions.

Rethinking Healthcare includes Arts, Tourism, and Culture. They are not the first to go in a budget restructuring, they are the first to be boosted to relieve the strain on the back end of healthcare, which is acute care and hospital needs. Give our first responders, mental health providers, and medical staff a break, provide support where it is needed...at the front of healthcare - how we live our daily lives for wellbeing.

What if healing wasn’t something you figured out…
but something you felt?

In Episode 3 of The Power of Sound trilogy, we explore synesthesia — the natural way sound becomes colour, emotion becomes sensation, and memory lives in the body. This multi-sensory awareness helps quiet the busy mind, awaken intuition, and reconnect us to body-based intelligence.

We begin with a tea ritual using Kitchen Party from the Natalie MacMaster Tea Set — a vibrant purple blend reminding us that celebration, connection, and sound lift the spirit.

🎧 Listen to Life in Color: The Synesthetic Experience Throughout Life
☕ Explore sound, tea, colour & intuition
🌿 Join us at upcoming Sound Retreats in St. Peters & Mabou

Life is meant to be experienced in full colour.
