Dr Christian Gonzalez - From Oncology Doc to Emotional Release Practitioner
During this episode of the Mind Body Mentor Podcast, Steven Jaggers invites Dr. Christian Gonzalez (Dr. G) to share his thoughts on spirituality, alignment, the mind body connection and how to be alive. Dr. Christian Gonzalez, widely known as Dr. G in the world of Instagram, is a renowned figure in the field of naturopathy medicine. Dr. G's journey into this realm began unexpectedly during his dental school years, where he aspired to be an orthodontist and help children regain their confidence through healthy smiles. However, life took an unexpected turn when his mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. This pivotal moment led Dr. G to question conventional approaches to cancer treatment. Introduced to a book on an unfamiliar diet, he was surprised by the author's use of "N.D." instead of "M." Intrigued, he delved into researching alternative medical practices and discovered a newfound passion for naturopathy.
Despite being already deep in debt from dental school, Dr. G listened to his intuition, which he later tattooed on his wrist as a reminder, and made the life-altering decision to change his path. Driven by his mother's battle with cancer, Dr. G decided to specialize in oncology, focusing on breast cancer treatment. However, his journey didn't end there. His mother's passing and subsequent life experiences led him to question traditional approaches to cancer, and he began exploring the impact of toxins, emotions, with a holistic perspective. Through his social media platforms and his Heal Thy Self podcast, Dr. G became an influential advocate, shedding light on the presence of toxins in everyday products while raising awareness about corporate integrity. His efforts sparked a movement, with companies making positive changes in response to his calls for greater accountability.
Yet, Dr. G felt a deeper calling within him. He had always possessed intuitive abilities, despite initially dismissing psychics and mediums. These latent gifts became more pronounced, leading him to profound experiences during deep meditations and dreams. In a synchronistic series of events, he found himself drawn to the Amazon, where he encountered indigenous tribes and embarked on a transformative shamanic awakening. Dr. G acknowledges being far from a traditional shaman. However, his profound encounters with traditional emotional healing processes unleashed a passion for helping others find their authentic selves. Through intense and cathartic body processes, he confronted childhood suppression, leading him to embrace his life's purpose.
Today, Dr. G is a guiding light for those seeking mindful modalities. With his extensive knowledge of naturopathy, combined with his intuitive insights on emotional healing practices, he empowers individuals to reconnect with their true selves. Dr. G's transformative journey, fueled by personal loss, continues to motivate his followers to embark on their own paths of healing and self-realization.
Both Jaggers and Dr. G agree on the significance of genuine embodied releases, emphasizing that such events signal to the nervous system the completion of necessary actions which lead to the dissipation of stressors. Jaggers acknowledged that the process doesn't always require delving back into the stories associated with trauma but rather focuses on completing the somatic experiences that the body needs. This approach stands in contrast to traditional talk therapy, which tends to prioritize dissecting narratives rather than directly addressing the body's needs.
Through focusing on the importance of allowing oneself to fully experience and express emotions rather than merely intellectualizing or rationalizing them, Dr. G and Jaggers find common ground in their holistic healing approach. Jaggers and Dr. G find most individuals are perpetually in contracted states. This state limits personal growth and makes people susceptible to manipulative control. Jaggers emphasized the need to break free from this pattern by consciously engaging with the body, expanding consciousness, and connecting with the intelligence it possesses.
