Addressing The Disease Tree To Find True Healing with Steven Horne

I have a special guest with me. His name is Steven Horne. He is a professional member and the past president of the American Herbalists Guild. He's also a professional member of the International Iridology Practitioners Association. He's an herbalist, a natural health teacher, an author, a consultant and his work has taken him not only throughout the US and Canada, but he's also gone to Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand, England and mainland China. He has a wealth of knowledge and people want to hear his knowledge.

He's spoken at places like HerbFest, Whole Foods Expo, Clayton College’s annual conference and lots of other places. He's a very popular speaker. How I became aware of him is because he is the author of many books and courses on natural healing, including Coming Clean: Your Guide to Detoxification, The Comprehensive Guide to Nature's Sunshine Products and The Heart’s Key to Health, Happiness and Success. His latest work is Modern Herbal Medicine. It was co-authored. He's the Founder of The School of Modern Herbal Medicine. He's got online classes and courses. I’m excited to have him here because I know so many of the heart-based business owners are very confused and very concerned about health wellness, how they're supposed to eat, and how they can use food to heal their bodies. Steven, welcome to the show. I'm so glad you're here.

Thank you, Terri. I appreciate that.

Tell me what all these things that I said mean.

I'm interested in helping people understand the root causes of their health problems. I go after that rather than trying to treat things symptomatically or form the orientation of disease. One of the big things I teach is something called the disease tree, which is that health problems that arise in our lives from four main root causes, unresolved mental and emotional stress, lack of nutrients, exposure to toxins and injury, physical injuries or things where we're not taking care of our body physically, like not getting enough sleep or enough exercise. It all arises from those things. What I explained is natural healing isn't about treating disease. It's about getting a person to start doing the things they should have done in the first place to stay healthy. Therefore, giving your body a chance to repair itself and heal.

How did you get interested in this? What showed up for you that got you so interested in this?

I had a lot of health problems when I was young.
