“Aging is not inevitable.” That may sound like a radical sentence but more and more research is showing this statement to be true. Tonight on Modern Love, we will explore the fascinating connection between medicine, mindfulness and meditation. Trained in Internal Medicine, Dr. Valerie Youngblood says if you change your perception about aging, your body will follow. After many years of practice, Dr. Valerie became disillusioned with traditional managed care and intuitively knew there was a better way. She became one of the first doctors to be certified in integrative holistic medicine changing her method of practice toward viewing a person in totality, treating the root cause of dis-ease and restoring balance. Dr. Valerie says this is 21st century medicine called Functional Medicine and it will be the fundamental method of practicing medicine in the future that can be accessed NOW. She regularly holds seminars, workshops and retreats speaking on the keys to living a balanced healthy lifestyle. Her new book, The Youngblood Code is out now. You will be able to find it on at her website, www.vyoungbloodmd.com, Amazon and a bookstore near you.
