IGNTD: Living a Healthier Lifestyle Through Self-Love

Living a Healthier Lifestyle Through Self-Love

Dec 6, 2017

Today’s topic is all about self-love — your relationship with yourself, improving that relationship, and how to fall more in love with who you are. The most important relationship you’re ever going to have in your life is going to be with yourself because that self-love is what makes you able to progress forward in life. You really have to take time for yourself and go inwards to understand and discover you.

Our guest this week is Dr. Taz, whose recent book, Super Woman RX, is all about helping people figure out what their bodies and tendencies can suggest to them about what their life should look like in terms of nutrition, exercise, and movement. Dr. Taz is a Western-trained physician who became really interested in — and exposed to — Eastern methodology. Her goal is to help women look inward and understand themselves better. Dr. Taz has worked in emergency medicine, pediatrics, preventative medicine and now considers herself a Specialist in integrative and functional medicine.

In this episode, Dr. Taz describes her entryway into medicine, how she transitioned from traditional medicine to her current specialization in integrative medicine, her work at Centre Spring MD, her tips and tricks for living a healthier lifestyle, and her own self-care rituals. She also takes a deep dive into describing her new book, Super Woman RX, and describes the five main power types and how it can help you improve your lifestyle by better understanding yourself. Stay tuned!
