From my list on cultivating resilience and courage during these profound times of rapid transformation on our planet.

I am convinced that there is an urgent need for a paradigm shift in medicine at this time of collapse and breakdown on the planet. The sacred's vital role in healing needs to be acknowledged, as does the role of nutrition and lifestyle, as well as a need to identify and treat the root causes of illness rather than simply suppressing symptoms with pharmaceuticals.

Unfortunately, their illnesses are very real.
Toxic is a book of hope for these individuals, their…
