After-Dinner Presentation: Marcey Shapiro, MD speaks on Health, Language and Love
On May 21, Marcey Shapiro, MD will speak on Health, Language and Love, and read excerpts from her book Transforming the Nature of Health: A Holistic Vision of Healing That Honors Our Connection to the Earth, Others, and Ourselves. Conventional medicine depicts health care as an endless war with germs and disease. What would medicine look like if we were at peace with nature? In her recently released book, Dr. Shapiro invites us to lay down our weapons and consider a fresh vision for health and health care, based on interconnectedness, love, meaning and respect.

Dr. Marcey is a family physician who has extensive training and experience in many areas of natural medicine including Western and Chinese herbal medicine, acupuncture, mind body techniques, flower essences, homeopathy, breathing techniques, nutritional therapies, Scenar®, and hands-on modalities such as Ortho-Bionomy® and Biodynamic Osteopathy. She sees mind, body and spirit as a unified whole and finds all of these reflected in the physical and emotional health of each individual. Dr. Shapiro incorporates this perspective in her writing, as well as in her work with patients. Visit her website http://www.marceyshapiromd.com (http://www.marceyshapiromd.com/).
