Her goal is to give you tools and thinking material to create more success, health, joy and zen in your life. The Zenberry Life show will inspire you to make a paradigm shift in order to let go of doubt, fear and any limitations you may have and which keep you stuck, as well as help you reach optimum health in order to move forward with your goals and dreams.

This Sunday, the show will introduce you to Asian Medicine. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is over 5 000 years old and is looking at the human body and signs of health / imbalances, diagnosis as well as treatments in very different ways from our western medicine. We'll look at a simple case, headaches, and look at the way an Asian medicine practitioner would diagnose and recommend treatment. There are over 50 treatments for a headaches in China because the root cause of the issues are so different.

Our guest will be a TCM practitioner I admire: Heidi Lovie. Heidi is a private practitioner of Acupuncture and Asian Medicine. In addition to being a licensed Acupuncturist (L.Ac.), she is board certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) in Chinese Herbology and Oriental Medicine. She holds an adjunct faculty position at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine where she teaches future healers Traditional Chinese Medicine when she is not in the office with patients. One of her regular soul vitamins over the years has been Kundalini Yoga; she is currently working towards my Kundalini Yoga Teaching Certification.
