Get ready for a no-holds-barred exploration of life and why we’re all here. Each week, world-renowned Holistic Health Practitioner Paul Chek and his guests will tackle topics like spirituality and metaphysics, human performance, diet, science, plant medicine, relationships, sexuality, lifestyle, and personal development with a depth and honesty that you won’t find anywhere else. Previously called Living 4D with Paul Chek, the podcast changed name to Spirit Gym with Paul Chek on Episode 300.
Do you pay attention to what your body’s is telling you during the changing of the season to winter, apart from buying holiday gifts nobody really needs, watching football and eating bad food that isn’t good for you?
Lara J. Day explains why we must pay far more attention to the seasons from a health perspective and describes the real benefits of observing the winter solstice this week on Spirit Gym.
Learn more about Lara’s work at her 13 Holy Nights website and on social media via Facebook and Instagram.

What would you call someone who is a very creative person with questions and not consuming reality the way it was told to them? Some would call that person normal, while others would perceive them as weird while a select few in the medical “health” community would label them mentally ill.
