How to Approach Health Holistically AND Heal

On this episode of Rooted & Rising, I am joined by Cherie Bennett, a trained physician assistant who has taken a holistic health approach to her lifestyle to discuss the power of holistic health. The principles of holistic medicine, the importance of addressing root causes of health issues, and the role of nutrition in promoting wellness were only a few of the captivating topics during this conversation. Holistic health came to Cherie during a time she needed to make a change the most. In her early 20s, she was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and began medication to treat it. After years of being on the medication, her energy levels never returned, and she knew something needed to change. The breaking point was when her husband was diagnosed with health issues; she knew something needed to be done lifestyle-wise. After using diet, herbs, and exercise to reverse his chronic conditions, she began her journey of understanding and nurturing organ and gut health.What habits in your day-to-day promote a healthy lifestyle?Episode Takeaways: * Address root causes for true healing* Certain foods, like ginger, help reduce inflammations* Berries help with cognition, and are an awesome superfood* Superfoods contribute to overall wellness* Parasites can go unnoticed, cause fatigue, and negatively affect your gut health* Too much water consumption to wash out the minerals your body needs* Your water needs electrolytesGrab your 2026 Wellness Powered By You digital planner HERE.Oh, and don’t forget to secure your spot for the Feed Your Soul Wellness Retreat!Did you miss last week’s episode?
