In this episode of the Prime Health Podcast, Dr. Derek Baron interviews Dr. Erin Holston Singh, a pioneering naturopathic physician with over 25 years of clinical experience and founder of Options Naturopathic in Cleveland, Ohio. Dr. Erin bridges rigorous metabolic and emotional terrain diagnostics with mind-body medicine, viewing disease not as an error but as a messenger — and helping patients heal by reconnecting with the innate intelligence of nature and the self.

Key Takeaways:

  • Emotions Become Biology: Your hormones are essentially your feelings turned into molecules that signal the entire body. Dr. Erin explains how unprocessed emotions directly shape physical health — and why learning to feel is one of the most powerful healing tools available.
  • Be Willing to Feel: Her top health advice is simple but profound — stop resisting your emotions. Whether it’s fear, anger, or grief, the feelings we suppress are often the root of chronic illness, and learning to sit with them is where healing truly begins.
  • Disease as a Messenger: Dr. Erin’s practice views symptoms not as problems to suppress, but as signals from the body and soul worth listening to. This paradigm shift changes how both patients and practitioners approach healing.
  • Optimal Development Shapes Lifelong Health: Her definition of prime health centers on optimal development — from gestation through adolescence. Unprocessed traumas, surgeries, or disruptions during those formative years often layer into the chronic conditions patients face decades later.
  • Nature Is the Foundation of Medicine: Dr. Erin’s journey into naturopathic medicine was driven by a simple truth — humans are biology, and nature-based medicine works with the body’s design rather than against it.
