Dr. José Peralta - Health & Harmony

Yesterday was such a beautiful and emotional day! Not only did I receive my diploma as a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine, but I also renewed my vows to this beautiful profession—vows that I swore to uphold (twice): to honor them always, in everything I do, even beyond my professional life.

It’s a commitment to serving others. It’s easy to forget that every interaction with a patient is an act of service, and this is true across all professions.

For many years, I felt like I never knew enough, that I would never know as much as the greats in medicine, and that I didn’t have many tools to help others. But I discovered that those thoughts were rooted in arrogance, ego, and even envy—wanting to stand out and be better than others. The human being remains an indecipherable mystery to humanity... we are still far from understanding.

So today, with greater humility, I say that I AM READY! Ready to give my best within my abilities—abilities that I thank God for giving me and that I promise to continue honoring and perfecting.

There’s an old saying in medicine: “Cure sometimes, relieve often, accompany always.” It’s a bit cliché, but it’s a good reminder and still relevant.

Thank you to my family for being with me in spirit at yesterday’s ceremony, and to my dear partner , who sat through the three-hour ceremony (and supported me through these last two years) like a true champion. ❤️

My heart is with full gratitude 🙏🏼

2 years went by just like that! Last Saturday was my last day as a clinical intern and student at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine.

There’s still a lot to learn but today I’m a better Doctor than before, with more tools, with a better understanding of what medicine is and could be.

I’m so grateful for this opportunity, for all our teachers, supervisors, and the beautiful colleagues I met along the way.
But non of these would have been possible without the unconditional support of my beloved . Thanks for always believing in me! ❤️

It was not easy… but reward is even sweeter after hard endeavours 💪🏼

Now the best part is yet to come… ✨

I love that my school has a meditation room, so when I have some down time I can get away and meditate. It is small and simple but just perfect! You don’t need to find a crystal clear lake surrounded by mountains or a waterfall to be able to meditate. Look around at your job, or maybe a small corner in your house, you might find a spot. Beauty comes from within, once you close your eyes nothing around really matters… :)
