Dr. Carel-Piet van Eeden’s experience of cancer inspired him to leave his corporate position and become an integrative practitioner. He supports others on similar journeys, honouring the fact that this process sometimes excludes physical recovery. Carel-Piet explains how nutrition, supplements, exploring emotional links to disease, NLP, Reiki and mindfulness can enhance healing and play a preventative role.
