EASE OS™ with Dr. Connie Cheung
by Dr. Connie Cheung
Most of us were never taught the essential skills of being human. Not how to carry a life that keeps changing in ways we did not plan for. Not how to recognize that what we have been calling just life — the career that drains us, the relationship we manage around, the slow accumulation of years of showing up for everyone else — has a physiological cost that eventually shows up in the body. And not how to understand why the diet, the supplements, the protocols, and the mindset work keep helping partially and never completely holding.The tools are not the problem. The sequence is. EASE OS™ with Dr. Connie Cheung is the podcast that finally addresses the missing link — the integration between the four systems every body runs on: Enteric, Autonomic, Somatic, and Empowered Psychology. Each episode walks one layer of the framework, explains the physiology in plain language, and leaves you with one practice and one question to carry into the week.Dr. Connie Cheung is a physical thera
