320. Dr. James Khong, 81, on the key principles to thriving in an anxious world

Published: Feb. 26, 2023, 1:01 p.m.

Dr James Khong has been a GP for 5 decades and at age 81, has wonderful wisdom to share with us in this week\u2019s show. The solution to the \u2018Stress Pandemic,\u2019 as James calls these times, is a combination of Eastern and Western medicine, as well as following his Pillars of Health and reducing stress. I know you\u2019ll love his calm reasoned and overwhelm-free approach in this show. James outlines his philosophy of wellness in his new book Pandemic Stress, Reflections of Thriving in an Anxious world - a book her wrote as a way to leave a legacy from his career and life. In over fifty years as a surgical registrar, emergency medicine specialist, innovative GP and medical consultant to the Australian Ballet, film and television industry, James Khong has had a front row seat of the medical \u2018industry,\u2019 and the view makes him sick. Ironically, it was a near-death-experience twenty years ago, which led to James\u2019 epiphany about changing the status quo medical model. He started to combine traditional Chinese/Western/Functional medicine, which look for causes to illness, rather than just addressing the symptoms. James also introduced meditation and breathing exercises for stress reduction.
