Your body has wisdom; it has the capacity to heal itself through an ancestrally aligned meat-based keto diet, daily movement and conscious mindful awareness. Each week I send out a short newsletter on thoughts on books I've read, a quote or two I'm contemplating and anything else I think you'd enjoy to prime your subconscious with a dose of dopamine for the week ahead.
