Just What the Doctor Ordered: The Five Pillars of Optimal Health

Most of us have a complicated relationship with our doctors. We fear them, we worship them, and some of downright just don't trust them.

Dr. Lamia Katbi will change all that. A board-certified pediatrician, Dr. Katbi has been practicing for more than 25 years and helping families learn more about their and their children's health and wellbeing and the healing power of awareness. In addition to her extensive medical training, Dr. Katbi has faced her own health and emotional challenges and discovered the secrets of optimal health. She herself was able to change her mindset, to go from feeling like a victim of her circumstances, to being responsible for her own health and wellbeing.

In Just What the Doctor Ordered, Dr. Katbi shares what she has learned - through her training, her research, and her own experience - about how to build strength and resilience by fortifying your own five pillars of optimal health. You will learn:

• The crucial importance of sleep and how to finally get what you need
• How your emotional health is undeniably linked to your physical well being
• The basics of mindful eating and how to get the superfoods you need to thrive
• The power of intentional breathing, and how it can change your life
• How to find the physical activity you love and will stick to, forever

Plus, you will discover how to tap into the wisdom of experts such as Brené Brown, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Thich Nhat Hahn, and others. You'll learn to take charge of your health and become a partner to your doctor, for good., and why the most important thing you can do for your health is to build awareness.

And after coping with her own career crisis, Dr. Katbi is uniquely qualified to address the issue of burned-out physicians, and offer help for doctors and their patients.
