    In this episode, we dive deep into a new vision for health. Lead Health Coach for Novis Health of Wesley Chapel, Maggie Morrison provides deep insight into a completely new understanding of health. "Healthcare" as we have believed it to exist consists of a person that is broken and needs fixing by the all-mighty doctor, drug, or procedure. But the truth is that most true healing, up to 90% of it actually happens outside the doctor's office (in the words of Dr. Mark Hyman)In this episode we discuss:1. Breaking the patterns that keep us sick2. Re-Discovering how valuable we are to ourselves, our families, and the world and why it is important to say yes to ourselves.3. The difference between those that heal and those that cannot overcome chronic disease. 4. Depression and Anxiety, and use of functional strategies to overcome them. This episode is a true GEM to kick off the new season. We invite you to sit back, slice your avocado and enjoy this transformative conversation. Support the show (http://www.avocadotreepodcast.com)
