The Body Knows How to Heal—Here’s What May Be Getting in the Way

Which foundational health habits should you address before trying another supplement? Today I’m with nutritional therapist and self-described “Healing Cave Lady” Mary Darnall to explore the health crisis that transformed her into a determined researcher and practitioner. We discuss why true healing often begins with simple foundations like calming your nervous system, chewing your food, hydrating with minerals, improving lymphatic flow, and reducing toxic exposures. You’ll learn why symptoms are important messages from your body and how returning to the basics can help you build greater resilience at any age. What you’ll learn: (05:45) Mary’s experience fighting for her son’s health transformed her into a passionate health advocate.
