In this episode, Dr. Helena Estimov joins Linh here to share her wisdom after 35 years of practicing acupuncture and helping people with on their health journey. She is a well-known acupuncturist in a small town called Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica. She has been living here for 30 years living from her heart, helping others on their healing journeys, and communing with nature and friends. I invited her on the stage today for her to share her message on the need to reform education about the human body and for her to share her experiences from years of practice. She speaks about the body's intuition and inner intelligence, creation as being an essential part of nature, the healthcare and medical system, and the true (Soulthentic) self!
Thank you for joining us both here and enjoy!
