If you’re a patient who has incorporated complementary and alternative medicine into your health care regimen, you may have bumped up against some resistance on both sides of the healing fence. Your doctor may think your homeopath is a total quack selling snake oil, and your homeopath may think your doctor is a big thug, thwacking his pharmaceutical hammer at anything that moves.

As someone who supports many forms of alternative medicine, included many alternative medicine practitioners in my integrative medicine practice at the Owning Pink Center, and empowers my patients to seek out treatments based on the guidance of their healing inner wisdom (I call it your “Inner Pilot Light”), this statement in an article on CNN caught my eye:

Lauren Sheehan is breaking through the barriers of inauthenticity and masks through Feminine Rhythm. As she quotes on her site, "every time you come in contact with the ground you are sending a shock-wave of energy into the earth proclaiming who you are, what you believe and what you desire." I think you might agree that Lauren's message is not only emotionally inspiring, but physically motivating as well. Let's start moving with intention and hold Lauren's story in a safe space. - Megan Monique
