Are You Awake Yet?
by MaryKate Smith
MaryKate Smith is a functional medicine nutritionist who likes to take a whole body approach to health that includes the mind, body, and spirit. These days, many are waking up to the idea that their reality is not what it used to be and beginning to understand that in order to be healthy, you really have to make an effort and understand the body at a deeper degree than the Western Medicine Approach. Each episode will be focused on understanding how to heal yourself through nutrition, tools on processing emotions, and getting to the roots of specific ailments. At times, topics may be controversial, but need to be talked about in order to have a deep sense of what is truly happening in the body and offering different solutions that have long term healthy outcomes. Prepare to expand your mind on topics and truly learn how to body works and what it needs to heal, which can sometimes be the opposite of the mainstream media's view.
