This week on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m joined by Dr. Frank Lipman to discuss building our resilience, how we can better respond to the punches life throws at us, and much more.
Dr. Frank Lipman is recognized as a vocal pioneer of integrative and Functional Medicine (or what he calls “good medicine”). Dr. Lipman is the founder of Eleven Eleven Wellness Center and the Chief Medical Officer at The Well. He is a sought-after international speaker and the best-selling author of six books—How to Be Well, The New Health Rules, Young & Slim for Life, Revive and Total Renewal—and his newest book, The New Rules of Aging Well: A Simple Program for Immune Resilience, Strength, and Vitality.
Needed to hear this right now. Found I out I have LPR which is a weird form of acid reflux and it was getting me down but seeing this video makes me realize I can overcome this by my attitude. Diet of course is a big part of getting over this thing.
Resilience is important for several reasons; it enables us to develop mechanisms for protection against experiences which could be overwhelming, it helps us to maintain balance in our lives during difficult or stressful periods, and can also protect us from the development of some mental health difficulties and issues.
