On today’s episode of The Dr. Steven Show, we are talking with Chris Wark, a true Inspiration. Chris is a fighter, thriver, survivor, and mentor for those who are on their journey with cancer. He is also an author of many books, including the recently published title Beat Cancer Daily and soon to be released Beat Cancer Kitchen, which are incredibly important resources for the prevention and treatment of cancer.
Chris shares his experience being diagnosed with Colon Cancer at 26, and how he healed through a combination of diet, exercise, stress reduction, and fostering joy. We’ll hear some amazing stories about key moments in his life that shifted his mindset away from fear and towards a path that felt true to his own healing process.
Listen in to learn about the unique journey Chris had to beating cancer with naturopathy instead of with chemotherapy.
