In today's episode I am joined by the upbeat passionate Dr Derrick Hines who specialises in helping people get out of pain and improve their overall health, quality of life and increase life expectancy. 

At 19 Derrick was at college as an Athlete and his life took a sudden turn around where he was diagnosed with a heart condition that baffled doctors. Derrick shares how he found his own way back to health that has now become his mission to help others take control back of their physical, mental and emotional health. We dive into simple steps that can create sustainable long term health and well-being benefits covering the impact of sleep, natural sunlight, stress management, movement and more.

Derrick shares his principles of the pillars of physical health: Strength, Cardiovascular, Stability and Mobility and how they can impact quality and longevity of life, turning them into super powers to reconnecting to our bodies innate wisdom. Plus revealing some shocking results that strength can reveal mortality rates in women. We also chat about signals that our bodies have been trying to communicate with us and how pain can be the gateway to access what we truly need to support and nurture our bodies vs taking a pill to make it "go away."
