Finding Balance: Taoist Wisdom for Holistic Healing with Paul Olko | Ep. 134

In this enlightening podcast, Paul Olko, a practitioner of Taoism and Chinese medicine, shares his passion with Avi for introspective personal healing. He explores health through the lens of the five elements—physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and financial—emphasizing balance and living in harmony with nature. Paul discusses the importance of cultivating oneself like a garden, using practices like Taoist meditation and the I Ching to foster self-awareness and gratitude. He highlights the power of simplicity, moderation, and embracing paradoxes, such as letting go of the need to know to gain true wisdom. Paul also reflects on building community, setting boundaries, and the transformative impact of aligning with one’s authentic self. “We have to raise our self-integrity. Do we feel integral with ourselves? That is something that can be practiced and cultivated.” -Paul Olko -- Paul is a naturopath, herbalist, and Asian bodywork therapist.
