As I read before bed, I'm struck by the shift in our approach to health over the years. My upbringing was a blend of conventional medicine and natural remedies, with a doctor who was willing to think outside the box. Now, in my 40s, I've seen how holistic therapies can complement conventional medicine, offering relief, comfort, and calm to those who need it. While I'm not medically trained and I would never claim to cure or diagnose any person of their illnesses or problems, my training in these therapies has shown me their potential to improve people's lives. Even without concrete scientific evidence, the fact that they can make people feel better, more relaxed, and happier is enough for me. I'm thankful for the progress we've made and the diverse range of these weird and wonderful therapies available to us today, with some having been used for centuries!
