Is blending both Eastern and Western medicine the key to living a fulfilling, balanced, and productive life?
Unlike doctors or healers who often believe in either one or the other, Dr. Figueroa-Otero believes that a combination of both highly-regarded ways of life are essential to living. As both a former pediatric surgeon who spent 40 years practicing medicine and a certified medical acupuncturist who specializes in disease prevention and modification of lifestyles through holistic Chinese medicine techniques such as meditation, his goal is to inform and educate others about blending these forms of medicine to live a balanced, healthy and rewarding life.
In an Amazon best-selling series that explores the depths of the mind-body-spirt connection and offers insightful advice about how we can all better our lives, Dr. Figueroa-Otero seeks to help others find the path of self-discovery and coping with challenges. In his newest book, Spirituality 103: The Forgiveness Code-Finding the Light in Our Shadows, readers discover new approaches to living a life at its maximum potential by effectively tackling the heavy issue of guilt and embracing a “forgiveness code,” which he believes is the key to moving past our and suffering.
