Healing through Modern Science & Eastern Medicine: Dr. Laurie Regan – Into Healing S1, Ep.16

Into Healing with Mira Kaddoura

After earning her doctorate in neuroscience at Harvard University, Laurie Regan became a naturopathic doctor and the dean of the College of Classical Chinese Medicine at the National University of Natural Medicine for over a decade. Laurie harmonizes contemporary science with Eastern philosophies and Chinese medicine. She shares how the stories we tell ourselves can influence the nervous system, how unexpressed love can manifest as disease, and how reconnecting with blocked parts can help us regain health. There’s so much to be learned from our conversation, but her key message? Despite trauma or disease, at our deepest level, our bodies are never broken.
