Fred Phillips: Conquering Parkinson's with Meditation and Qigong

I've learned that the root cause of Parkinson's is fear and stress and worry and so on, things were pretty much on hold... I still use many techniques in order to manage my day-to-day symptoms.
Imagine being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and finding a way to not just cope, but thrive. That's Fred Phillips' story. Since his diagnosis in 2008, Fred has embraced a unique approach to managing his symptoms through meditation, qigong, and a deep connection with nature. In this episode of Parkinsons Recovery Radio, Fred opens up about his journey, sharing insights into his daily routines and the philosophies that guide him.
Fred believes that fear, stress, and worry are the true culprits behind Parkinson's disease. By focusing on spiritual practices, he has found ways to keep these emotions in check. Meditation and qigong play a crucial role in his daily life, helping him maintain balance and inner peace. But it's not just about the mind; Fred also emphasizes physical exercises like balance and footwork routines to keep his body strong. Nature is another key element in Fred's recovery.
He finds solace and healing in the forest, where he can align his circadian rhythms and recharge his internal energy. This holistic approach has allowed him to lead a fulfilling life despite the challenges of Parkinson's. Fred's story is not just about managing symptoms; it's about living fully. He has authored several books, including the third installment of his history teacher trilogy, and continues to inspire others with his blog.
Whether you're dealing with Parkinson's yourself or supporting someone who is, Fred's journey offers valuable lessons in resilience and hope. Tune in to hear how meditation, qigong, and a love for nature have transformed his life.
