On our last episode, we introduced Dr. Brad Lichtenstein. Dr. Brad is a naturopathic physician who has spent his career teaching and practicing mind-body medicine, mindfulness, and meditation. This topic is crucial to optimal health, yet many patients find it intimidating and don’t know where to start. Today in part two of our interview, Dr. Brad dives into what mindfulness is, and how to cultivate mindful practices. Additionally, if you stick around to end of the show credits, Dr. Brad also leads us in a mindful meditation.

“Mindfulness means attention to the present moment without judgement or without elaboration. A lot of our suffering is because we are living in the judgement of something and missing the moment.” – Dr. Brad Lichtenstein

The world of medicine can be challenging. Clinicians and patients are always looking for more options, more effective treatments… and in the end, more answers. What if there was a way to practice medicine that digs deeper and offers a new perspective? Functional medicine focuses on addressing root causes of disease. At Genova Diagnostics we’ve watched this field evolve and grow for over 35 years….

We’ve not only adapted, we’ve led. Join us as we talk about functional medicine, laboratory testing, and optimizing health. Welcome to the Lab Report.
