The female body is capable of amazing things, if we allow it the time it needs. This episode is all about staying the course, and why its so important to have a realistic timeline set for your goals!

Jeffrey Essen is an accomplished Naturopathic Doctor, Holistic Healthcare Practitioner, Certified Gluten-Competent Practitioner, and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner who has been in practice since 2000. Naturopathic medicine always seeks to find the causal factors to disease and stay on the leading edge of science in matters of metabolism, toxic exposure, and functional nutrition. Dr. Essen has a private practice in Rosemount where he specializes in autoimmune disease, digestive issues, and functional hormone support. The origin of the word "Doctor" was the Latin "Doctore", which meant teacher. Dr. Essen strongly believes that every medical practitioner should be an educator to their patients. The classes offered at the Springs reflect that very idea of education leading to better health and lifestyles. Each class offers a practical and easy to understand model of a part of the whole human model of health. Any class may give insight into current or potential conditions that a large percentage of our population faces. Practical solutions will be offered, emphasizing diet, nutrition, exercise, and other programs that guide the body back to a health balance. Education is an imperative for health care practitioners, both learning from others and teaching to others. Dr. Essen is dedicated to both. On average, 100 hours of seminars, convention attendance, webinars, blog review, and just plain reading are part of the commitment of a good naturopath. Dr. Essen traches a Holistic Healthcare Practitioner course, Real Life Blood Chemistry, and several short courses designed to allow the ley person access to the latest trends and research in the natural medicine field.
