SUMMARY:Cynthia Li: Brave New Medicine w/ Anna O'Malley
DESCRIPTION:Cynthia Li in conversation with Anna O’Malley about her book\, Brave New Medicine. \nThis event is co-sponsored by the Natura Institute for Ecology and Medicine at Commonweal Garden. \nAbout Brave New Medicine\nIn this revelatory memoir\, Doctor Cynthia Li shares the truth about her disabling autoimmune illness\, the limitations of Western medicine\, and her hard-won lessons on healing–mind\, body\, and spirit. \nLi had it all: a successful career in medicine\, a loving marriage\, children on the horizon. But it all came crashing down when\, after developing an autoimmune thyroid condition\, mysterious symptoms began consuming her body. Test after test came back “within normal limits\,” baffling her doctors–and baffling herself. Housebound with two young children\, Li began a solo odyssey from her living room couch to find a way to heal. \nBrave New Medicine details the physical and existential crisis that forces a young doctor to question her own medical training. She dives into the root causes of her illness\, learning to unlock her body’s innate intelligence and wholeness. Li relates her story with the insight of a scientist\, and the humility and candor of a patient\, exploring the emotional and spiritual shifts beyond the physical body. \nMillions of people worldwide are affected by autoimmune disease. While complex conditions like chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) are gaining attention\, patients struggling with these mysterious ailments remain largely dismissed by their doctors\, families\, and friends. This is the harsh reality that doctor-turned-“difficult patient” Li faced firsthand. \nDrawing on cutting-edge science\, ancient healing arts\, and the power of intuition\, this memoir offers support\, validation\, and a new perspective for doctors and patients alike. Through her story\, you can find the wisdom and heart to start your own healing journey\, too. \nAbout the participants\nCynthia Li\, MD\, graduated from The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center\, and has practiced internal medicine in settings as diverse as Kaiser Permanente Medical Center\, San Francisco General Hospital\, and St. Anthony Medical Clinic for the homeless. She currently serves on the faculty of the Healer’s Art program at the UCSF School of Medicine\, and has a private practice in integrative and functional medicine. She lives in Berkeley\, CA\, with her husband and their two daughters. \nAnna O’Malley is a board-certified Family Medicine physician. She graduated from the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee\, Wisconsin in 2005\, and completed her residency training at the University of California-San Francisco in 2008. She was certified in Integrative Medicine in 2010 upon completion of the University of Arizona’s Program in Integrative Medicine. Her other interests include social justice\, environmental sustainability\, and enjoying life. When not working\, she can be found hiking the hills of Marin\, dancing\, savoring yummy food\, reveling in the beauty of nature\, and sharing the mysteries and joys of life with her daughters Lila and Elsa and husband Jeffery.
