Heal Your Gut, Mind & Planet with Dr. Catherine Clinton's Insights.

This week my Brave New Girls podcast interview is with Dr. Catherine Clinton ND, and she gives us an inspiring narrative of resilience and innovation in the realm of healthcare. Dr. Catherine Clinton, a licensed naturopathic physician, has harnessed her personal battle with autoimmune disease during her medical school years to fuel a profound passion for healing. Her focus isn’t confined to the individual alone; it extends to the collective well-being of our planet.

Dr. Clinton's speciality lies in gut health, autoimmunity, and psychoneuroimmunology, but what sets her apart is her deep-seated interest in quantum biology. Quantum biology is an interdisciplinary field that marries quantum physics with biology to understand quantum phenomena within living systems and everything in our body connects with itself and the world around us. But don’t be scared by the science! She explains how we can use it in a practical way so we can see how we can elevate and maintain our heath.

Dr. Clinton's expertise in quantum biology allows her to address health at its foundational level, focusing on how elements like light, sound, and the movement of electrons and protons within the body can significantly affect our state of health and disease. She emphasizes the importance of aligning our circadian rhythms with natural light to optimize our health, as well as the intriguing properties of structured water within our cells, which is critical for our vitality and immune system.

Through her work, Dr. Clinton has explored the profound impact that emotions and thoughts have on our biology, down to the cellular and mitochondrial levels. She discusses how positive emotions like love and gratitude can foster heart-brain coherence, leading to improved health outcomes. Moreover, she touches on how this coherence can extend beyond the individual to affect communities and potentially the Earth's own magnetic field.

The interview delves into the significance of meditation and being in nature to elevate our well-being. Dr. Clinton suggests that these practices are not just spiritually enriching but have tangible scientific benefits. She encourages a personalized approach to meditation, advocating for moving meditation or gratitude-focused techniques for those who find traditional meditation challenging.

Dr. Catherine Clinton's vision for the future is inclusive and empowering. She believes that simple, consistent practices like gratitude can foster a state of coherence within ourselves, which can ripple out to influence the world around us positively. Her approach to healing is holistic, integrating the wisdom of ancient practices with cutting-edge scientific research to promote a more healthful, harmonious world.

To put Dr. Clinton's insights into practice, here are 10 actionable steps to enhance your well-being and contribute to a healthier planet:

Align with Natural Light: Adjust your daily routine to sync with the sun’s rhythm to regulate your circadian clock.

Stay Hydrated: Focus on maintaining hydration to support the structured water in your cells.

Infrared Energy: Incorporate natural sunlight exposure, saunas, or warm baths into your routine to bolster structured water in the body. 

Heart Coherence Practices: Utilize tools like the HeartMath Institute’s techniques to foster heart-brain coherence.

Gratitude Exercises: Start and end your day with a gratitude practice to maintain a positive emotional state.

Mindful Movement: Engage in moving meditation, such as walking or qigong, if still meditation is challenging.

Nature Immersion: Spend time daily in natural settings to enhance calmness and connection to the environment.

Optimize Mitochondrial Health: Consider your diet and exercise routine to support mitochondrial function.

Emotional Grace: Practice expressing your emotions in ways that are coherent and not reactive.

Community Coherence: Engage in community activities that promote collective well-being and environmental health. 

By embracing these steps, we can not only improve our health but also contribute to the well-being of our communities and the planet. Dr. Clinton's work exemplifies how individual health and planetary health are interconnected and how, through understanding and applying principles of quantum biology, we can cultivate a more harmonious existence.
