In this transformative episode from earlier this year, Dr. Zach Bush [http://zachbushmd.com/] shares his insights on the intricate links between the health of our planet and the health of humanity. Learn about the light energy within us that has been dimming since the 1940s and its relation to the rise of chronic diseases. Delve into the ancient stories of human spirituality and their impact on our modern world with Host Carry Kim. This is a conversation that will change the way you see your place in nature.



Ours is a time that requires fortitude, resiliency, introspection, observation, connection and action. We are aware of the multitude of things afflicting humanity and the world, much of which has been human-induced whether we speak of climate change, conflicts, injustice of all kinds, destruction of the ecosystem and our microbiomes, degradation of soil, loss of biodiversity or personal dis-ease and the deterioration of collective health. 


Dr. Zach Bush has devoted his life and research to the exploration of what harms and what heals ourselves, our food systems, waterways, the soil, and the often unseen world of microbiology. His journey has been a deep and collaborative dive into understanding and revealing root cause. How did we get here and how will we change to chart a better course not just for humanity, but for all inhabitants with whom we share this planet? This conversation is more inquiry than "answers." It is a pondering of our times and an asking of questions, without the resolution of "answers." It is an attempt to connect some of the dots between human and planetary health and to awaken our collective memories as intrinsic parts of Nature.
