Why are depression, anxiety, obesity, and chronic disease exploding—while we spend $5.3 trillion a year trying to fix them?In this eye-opening episode of Here We Stand, Dr. David Shin sits down with Weimar University’s president, Dr. Neil Nedley to confront a sobering reality: what we call “healthcare” is often just disease management. Drawing on clinical experience from the NEWSTART and Depression and Anxiety Recovery programs, this conversation explores a radically biblical, deeply scientific vision of whole-person restoration—body, mind, and soul. From the frontal lobe and neuroplasticity to spiritual formation and freedom of choice, this episode makes a bold claim: transformation is possible, but only when we stop compartmentalizing health and recover an ethical, Christ-centered framework for healing.In this powerful discussion, you’ll learn:Why “disease care” can stabilize people without truly restoring them—and what a real healthcare model should include.How depression/anxiety and physical illness reinforce each other (sleep, fatigue, hypertension, and more) and why treating one in isolation falls short.The difference between Eastern-style mindfulness and biblically grounded “Western meditation,” including the role of ethics and the frontal lobe.Practical pathways to transformation: NEWSTART’s 8 remedies, addressing biochemistry and thought patterns, and even a smartphone reset to rebuild focus and emotional control.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/JK4XjOoe3QFPC2P6OcS-Mq-7dIhE2WXpPxTSkrztHR8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zMjE5/NDhhZTQyYTgyMjBh/ZmNlZDM0ZTgxMGU5/Mjg2Yi5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
