I’m here today with Diana Lane, a Stress Reduction Specialist and Holistic Health Expert. Diana started off as a premed heart surgeon, but quickly realized once she started working with heart patients that something was terribly wrong with the system. She’s since embraced becoming an acupuncturist, herbalist, and Reiki master with over 18 years of experience in the medical field.
I’m excited about our conversation today because Diana has so much to share when it comes to the mind-body-soul connection. And for a long time this was the biggest missing piece in my health journey. Acknowledging past trauma and dealing with the emotional aspects was key for healing my autoimmune disease.
Diana covers the different tools and ways we can tap into these sources, especially when it comes to acupuncture. While acupuncture is considered “woo” in conventional circles, there’s actually a lot of science to back it up. We also talk about EFT (tapping), energy flow, how healing really happens, and so much more. There’s a whole lot packed into today’s episode and I look forward to sharing our conversation with you!
