Whether you go to the doctor or read the work of online biohackers, you will often be left with generalized recommendations that don't consider your unique physiologic constitution.
I’m so excited to learn about this! There is so much “health” info out there, and it feels like I’ve read everything under the sun. I’m starting to see that, when it comes to health of the body, the more simple something is, the truer it is - the Occam’s razor of health. We all have different personality temperament…why on earth wouldn’t our bodies match it?? So simple.
The wisdom of our ancestors (no matter who you are or where you’re from) was in understanding the world qualitatively with such depth that we are still catching up 2000 years later with our quantitative approaches.
Excellent as always. I appreciate the ancient wisdom and hope to learn more. On the other hand, I wouldn’t discount modern understanding completely; I think there’s potential genetics/epigenetics and “biochemical individuality” that moves beyond reductionist and mechanistic explanations and pushes toward a more personalized understanding of a human person. As you know, Chris Masterjohn is one person whose work aims toward that modern personalized ideal. I think there’s a lot of potential to synergize the ancient with the new.
This looks so promising. Love the integration and the open searching. (FWIW, I see elements of TCM in here as well...)
Love that doctors like you are expanding the scope and vision of medicine. Physiology and psychology work in sync. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
I love what I do.
Glad it shows.
All the best.
This is very similar to Ayurveda. Also to ancient systems of medicine. So interesting!
Very much looking forward to your book. Thanks for your efforts.

I’m so grateful to be on the course-correction wave. I’m also grateful to YOU for what you’re doing, and super excited about your book 🙏🏼

Chris does a great job.
Absolutely.
The ancients had a qualitative understanding of the quantitative we insist on dissecting today.
Have you studied Chinese QiGong? I'm hearing parallels in what your describing and my own reading and practice
it’s on the list.
There’s so much to learn!
Superb article. Indeed Traditional Chinese Medicine is another ancient system that is very similar to what you described.
Yes, definitely. Forgot to include that one.
