Life through the nose

The Wellness Puzzle Podcast

Benjamin Smith's interest in health started at a young age. He remembers asking my dad who is a dermatologist, all kinds of abstract and philosophical questions. Why is the sky blue? Or why does the sun cause skin issues? He was fascinated with wanting to know why.

In his early 20s, he thought about pursuing a career in the medical field, specifically a naturopath. Life changed course on him and he got into the automotive detailing industry, owning his own company for the last 30 years.

All this time he was still interested in health and how the human body worked, but it was more of a leisurely pursuit. He read a few articles and watched a few videos here and there. It wasn’t until 2012 when he became more or less obsessed with why people get chronic disease. That year his sister died of cancer and he thought to himself, “does the body want to kill itself?” It didn’t make sense.

In 2014 he started to really dive “deep into the woods” and started to learn some amazing things about water, nose breathing and other things that could lead to optimal wellbeing. He started to voraciously read everything I could get my hands on about health.

Fast forward to 2019 and he was realizing he needed to share this information with people around him and with his loved ones. He thought, “I can become a health coach!” This way he can share his information and help people get well. He signed up for The Primal Health Coach Institute after much research as they were in line with his values. After getting his certificate, he realised he wanted to help people through teaching and lecturing.

A friend suggested “Why don’t you write a book?“ He thought this would be perfect. He could get his message out there for people who wanted to listen. Over the past four years, he has been researching and working on this book and it has finally come to fruition. This “model” that he created and developed is a decade of research and reviewing hundreds of articles as well as talking and learning from experts in their respective fields.

It is Benjamin's mission to help as many people as possible to help them live the life of health and abundance they were put on this planet to enjoy. This is a wonderful conversation, not to be missed.
