My story
Like many other people, I have entrusted the doctors with my health. Even after qualifying as a doctor myself, I did not question my doctors for prescribing increasingly potent medication for a fairly common condition. However, when my hospital specialist letter stated: “not responding to conventional treatment” and I was offered potent immunosuppressants, I knew I had to look for the answers elsewhere. I decided to look inwards. With the help of professionals, my family and friends, lifestyle and complementary medicine, I emerged on the other side. Having gone through my own inner healing journey, I could not treat my patients the same as before. So I researched and trained extensively to help people to explore their symptoms as an integral part of themselves. Mind-body approach looks at physical symptoms as being intricately related to the rest of our lives. My personal healing journey, further training and the experience of working one-to-one with my patients in this way inspired me to create this course and help you find your inner doctor.

Feedback from previous participants:
“I found the Inner Doctor programme to be massively beneficial and very good value for money. I would thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking for a new approach in how to tackle their health issues. I found it very insightful and it has given me a new enthusiasm and hope for improving my health in the future. The course was well researched and presented. It was a good balance of new information and personal enquiry.” Karen, Winchester
“I felt we were all very well supported throughout. In particular Katya was very supportive of me when I was troubled by one of the exercises and subsequent video meditation. We were given time to ask questions and share information. I can recommend the course and I am looking forward to a follow-up! It was also very good value.” Marion
“I have been fortunate to have made great strides in my own health through my consultations with Dr Owen so this course was very welcome when it was published as being available. The holistic knowledge imparted in this course on the connected relationship between our minds and our bodies seems to me a vital and necessary component to the self-healing process that each of us can embark on under the guidance of a holistic physician. Teaching your patients the theoretical basis and research evidence underpinning and supporting this healing methodology to healing empowers your patients into a much better position to participate actively and fully in the improvement and healing of our ailments, illnesses towards health and well-being. Please continue to teach this. Thank you.” Margaret
