In this episode of Rapid Regeneration, I sit down with Dr. Areli to explore the incredible power of intuition, natural living, and plant-based healing. From her roots in Mexico to her holistic path in the U.S., Dr. Areli shares how leaving conventional medicine behind led her to a deeper truth—one that embraces spirit, nature, and ancestral wisdom. We talk about the role of the heart in decision-making, why self-trust is foundational for healing, and how food, movement, and emotion are all connected.

Dr. Areli opens up about her journey as a physician who felt the calling to step away from pharmaceuticals and step into plant-based wellness. We dive into why she believes the human body is designed to heal itself when given the right tools—sunlight, raw foods, and emotional honesty. We also discuss the influence of childhood trauma and how emotional wounds can manifest physically if not addressed. Her approach combines practical healing with spiritual insight, offering a powerful reminder that healing is not just about what we eat—it’s about how we live.

If you’ve ever questioned the limits of conventional medicine or felt pulled toward a more natural lifestyle, this conversation is for you. We talk about detoxification, fruit-based eating, raw foods, and how connecting to your own inner guidance can open the door to transformation. Whether you’re on a raw vegan journey or just starting to question what true health really looks like, Dr. Areli’s story will inspire you to reclaim your vitality—on your terms.
