Ep. 91 Somatic Medicine with Dr. G of Heal Thy Self Podcast

The Beautiful Grit

Dr. Christian Gonzalez, aka Dr. G, completed his Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine at the University of Bridgeport College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2014. During his time there, he took interest in many fields of medicine, but it wasn’t until his mother passed of cancer that he decided to shift his focus to oncology and completed his residency at the Cancer Treatment Center of America in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was then that he realized that cancer was not simply nutritional or exercise-based, it was connected to the relationships we have with our home, the environment, the people in our lives, stuck emotions, were at the core of chronic disease. In the episode, Dr. G shares about his own personal healing journey, including his intuitions as a child, whispers as a college student, which led to his path of yoga, meditation, breathwork, starting his own clinic, then podcast, and emotional and somatic modalities for true healing. Sensuality and sexuality are also emphasized as one of the core causes of dis-ease that Dr. G sees in his clients and how somatic work is the key to unlocking trauma and conditioning that is held within the body and affects every area of your life. Through an impromptu Human Design reading for Dr. G in the podcast interview, Gwen shares about the foundations of Human Design, and Dr. G was blown away by the accuracy and validation of his energetic blueprint.
