Listening to the body: Dr. Bee Lo at TEDxUWLaCrosse

Natural Healing Through NAET, A New Concept To Health and Disease Prevention, Dr. Bee Lo, naturopathic doctor.

Dr. Bee Lo explains the importance of learning to listen to your body. "I was surprised to learn that so many people come to my office and are out of tune with their own body. They suffer from common illnesses that are so easy to avoid and treat."

Symptoms like back pain, allergies and migraines are the body's way of telling the mind that something is wrong. Yet, people are trained to associate symptoms with drugs. Taking a drug only tells the body to stop the communication of the problem while the issue continues on below the surface. Only when the cause is eliminated, will the symptom go away, explains Lo.

Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Techniques (NAET), a form of alternative medicine, looks to the cause of the symptom to treat it. He encourages all to pay attention to their body, find the cause of the pain and aim to heal the root of the problem.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
