Whole Body, Whole Health: Weight Loss Challenges & Diet Culture

Welcome to Mother Nature's Doctor, the podcast where ancient wisdom meets modern wellness. I'm Dr. April Schulte, your guide on a journey to holistic health. With over 20 years of experience in acupuncture and oriental medicine, I've dedicated myself to helping people like you unlock their true healing potential by tapping into the innate power of nature.
In our very first episode, I'm thrilled to welcome my dear friend, Nicole Fuller, a registered dietitian with a passion for intuitive eating. Together, we explore the foundational role of the earth element in traditional Chinese medicine and its impact on our digestive health, self-love, and overall wellbeing.
Join us as we dive deep into the reasons behind weight loss challenges, the misconceptions about diet culture, and the emotional aspects that truly connect mind, body, and spirit. Discover how an integrated approach to health, including understanding the emotional and behavioral factors, can lead to a more balanced life and improved digestive health.
We also touch on the powerful concept of rest, the need for a supportive healthcare team, and how modern practices can sometimes miss the mark by focusing on isolated symptoms rather than the whole picture.
If you've ever felt that your journey to health was missing something, that there had to be a more connected and compassionate way to heal, tune in to learn how intuitive eating, traditional medicine, and self-love can transform your health from the inside out. Whether it's understanding the sweet cravings as a call for digestive support or bridging the gap between your emotional and physical self, we aim to inspire and empower you.
Remember, you're not alone on this journey. Feel the warmth of a community that values genuine self-care, and let's uncover the power to heal through nature together. Thank you for joining us as we embark on this path towards holistic wellness.
