India, a Naturopathic Doctor’s Heaven on Earth!

My visit and cultural expedition in Chennai, India

Last month I spent some time at my second home, #India (and some time at our temporary second home #Singapore). As a naturopath, I could not but notice how ingrained nature is in India’s day to day. People cohabit with our friends from the botanical and animal kingdoms as part of their regular lifestyle, it’s truly beautiful! There is so much humility in communicating with other creatures sharing this earth with us, and every being is treated with respect — from ants to crickets, dogs, to other animals and of course, humans.

And let me say, that food is truly medicine over there — when cooking, Indians incorporate whole plants in their foods, from roots, stems, aerial parts, leaves, and crops. Every meal is flavored with potent local herbs, some of which I prescribe as medicine here in my practice!

I express my gratitude to India for enlightening me and revealing the profound beauty of harmonizing with nature, and showcasing the magnificent wonders of God’s creation on earth.
