Hi Danielle! Great first post! I am a retired general surgeon and I now write about how to get what you need from the Bible, most importantly hearing God speak. Looking forward to seeing more of your work! May God encourage us with the gospel today: Jesus really is the Great Physician (and the best surgeon!).
“We are both spiritual and physical beings. When religious guidance or ideas prevent us from taking care of our physical minds and bodies, it can be harmful to our overall health.” Yes, I believe we must treat people as a whole being, not just physical, and not just spiritual. Jesus taught people spiritual truths, but He also physically fed them. He as fully human and fully God, had to take physical rest with spiritual renewal. There’s a balance to life as a whole. And seeking Him above all else will guide us to the things we need.
I love this, Danielle. God is SO much bigger than we can ever imagine. This post reminds me to seek God in all the torrents and streams of life. He is swirling around us in so many ways!
I’m glad you’re writing about this. I went through training thirty years ago as an RN, then developed a chronic gut condition called SIBO 6 years ago after some major stressors. Regular medicine seemed clueless, so I moved into the integrated/functional medicine area to find help and we discovered mold sickness as another underlying cause. There are many Christians like me interested in this topic of faith and more integrative health. 😉

Hi!
Great work, Sweetheart! I'm honored to be the first comment, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes you/us.

Sorry for your experience, I hope you found some help and relief with functional medicine.
Health is such an extensive topic, I’m excited to share my knowledge and perspective but I’m sure that’s still just the tip of the iceberg.
My hope is that many more like you will chime in, share their unique experiences, and we can all learn from one another.
