Dr. Wendy Johnson discusses health benefits of kinship medicine, connection in new book

Dr. Wendy Johnson, a longtime physician, health activist and writer in Northern New Mexico, joins “Conversations Different” to discuss her new book Kinship Medicine: Cultivating Interdependence to Heal the Earth and Ourselves.   Johnson shares what guided her in writing the book along with discussing its theme of kinship medicine, a belief that individual wellbeing is determined by our relationships and interconnection. The book also delves into the belief that we as human beings are smaller ecosystems in a larger system such as the environment and Earth, and to truly be healthy, we must reconcile any misalignments with each other.   Johnson’s official book launch will be on July 15 at Tumbleroot Brewery in Santa Fe with a book tour around the United States to follow in the weeks after.   For more information about the book, launch and tour, visit wendyjohnsonmd.com.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
