Near-death-like experience guest is Dr. Kim D’Eramo, physician, Bestselling author of the mind body tool kit and founder of the American institute of Mind Body medicine. Dr. Kim’s path was informed by her first career in Emergency Medicine. While working in the ER, she began to notice that the patients she saw with chronic illness all had a component of emotional and mental energies keeping their disease state in place. The medical model Dr. Kim studied didn’t seem to take these deeper levels of energy into account. After wrestling with a mysterious, frequently-misdiagnosed illness of her own, she realized that the most insidious symptom of disease is the powerlessness we feel after receiving a diagnosis. Dr. Kim knew she could have a bigger impact on others by honoring her intuitive abilities, so she left her career and established a practice incorporating MindBody Medicine to assist healing. The Mind-Body approach centers our body’s wisdom and intuition - emphasizing that disease does not break us, the path to healing can start from within, and we are all innately whole as we are.
