During the course of his career, which has spanned two countries and has involved caring for tens of thousands of chronically and critically ill patients, he noticed that the majority of patients do not heal and remain trapped in the paradigm of chronic disease. This motivated him to dive deeper into the roots of true healing through studying ancient healing traditions, the psychology of healing, consciousness and metaphysics which culminated in the writing of his book. He continues his medical practice in Ontario, Canada with the goal of bridging conventional medicine with a more holistic multi-dimensional approach to healing.

Dr. Naeem talks to us about four areas of low-hanging fruit where entrepreneurs can improve their health: nutrition, movement (15-20 minutes), sleep (an extra 1 hour), and stillness (meditation, mindfulness, and journaling).
