What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I absolutely love this podcast. Dr. Motley has such a soothing voice and he gives really great info for how you can incorporate herbs and daily habits into your daily routine. I’ve followed some of his herbal advice in the past and it worked like a charm. Definitely would recommend this podcast to anyone who trusts that the body can heal and is looking to increase their health.

LCand3 · May 2026

I listen to several different podcasts about health but THIS ONE is the best hands down! EVERY TIME I listen to an episode I am able to learn more about what I am dealing with that traditional practitioners have no clue about. This show has been invaluable for me. So grateful for it.

Suntangled · Apr 2026

I’ve listened for months. But today, God used you and your guest to speak to me. To let me know that it was Him that led me to pray along with a meditation on Gods physical protection one entire night I couldn’t sleep. That it was Him that protected me and why I walked out of a botched surgical spinal injection, that it was him who put my acupuncturist into my path the day I wanted to assume this was what life would always be, and that it is He who continue to heal me. This is going on this week. Today. Thank you for hearing Him speak and doing as He told you. I needed to hear this.

Tynker2000 · Mar 2026

Dr. Nelson’s story of healing neck pain by clearing emotional trauma was incredible—and spot on. I see the same emotional-spiritual patterns in my own healing work. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking for real, lasting breakthroughs.
