info_outlineIn this episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Hilda Labrada Gore. She is the host and producer of the Wise Traditions podcast and the founder of Holistic Hilda. Hilda is not only a seasoned podcaster but also a certified health coach and an experiential anthropologist.
Hilda's passion for exploring ancient health traditions has taken her on a journey akin to that of Dora the Explorer 2.0. Her ultimate goal is to uncover ways to restore energy and vitality to humanity.
One of the beautiful stories Hilda is sharing with us today includes that of a midwife and healer from Ecuador whom she had encountered and imparted a profound lesson – that the human body is sacred. Struck by this message, Hilda thought about how she could share this with others and inspire them to treat themselves with greater care and respect. If more people understood that they were perfect and beautiful in their own right, perhaps they would nourish themselves differently.
When we treat our bodies with reverence and care, we can experience greater health, happiness, and fulfillment in all areas of our lives.
In this episode, you will hear:
- Looking to the past for good health today
- The story of the man with the walking stick
- Making the shift back to real foods
- The power of the body to heal itself
- The healing cycle between humans and the land
- The importance of looking to the past for good health
- Planning your travel and making connections
