Meet Matt
My name is Matt Walton (R.TCMP, R.Ac), and I founded Roots to Sky because of the frustration I found when trying to actually heal both my physical and emotional health concerns at the “root” – without masking or “removing” them (anxiety begone!)
I wanted to understand and overcome what caused them to be there to begin with. Instead, I found no clear directions in our modern world: having to try little techniques here, other approaches there, one friend says this, another that… but deeply knowing that somehow everything was all connected through the confusion.
Some tools worked for me, and some didn’t. Yet just because they didn’t work for me didn’t mean I scrapped them, instead I always documented always keeping in mind that they might work for someone else. Helping others was built into me.
Out of this journey I instinctively found my passion for building the maps & frameworks that would later become my advanced counselling programs, so others didn’t have to suffer needlessly… lost in the dark or overwhelmed by mixed messages.
Ancient Gifts…
It wasn’t until I discovered that our ancestral “Traditional Medicines” of the world not only view health and our potentials from a wholistic perspective (I add a “w” to differentiate between the new-agey buzzword – and instead focus on a “systems theory” approach: that well-being of our mind depends on well-being of body and vice-versa; and that by affecting change in one system, positive or negative, we affect change in the whole being), but these traditions have preserved and advanced this philosophy for thousands of years… this was no fad or latest instagram trend!
The major indigenous medical heritages of our planet (Chinese, Ayurveda, Tibetan, Native American, and African) see the common symptoms and chronic complaints we all face as the language of our bodies and have learned to interpret and honour this language as pointers to underlying imbalances. Not diseases that curse us, but states of disharmony which simply need to be patiently “rebalanced”.
Through the centuries these medicines have advanced steadily, continuing to this day. Backed by millennia of experience, and now validated by science, we successfully treat and most importantly prevent the chronic health concerns many of us or our loved ones currently face – complementarily filling the gaps in our modern medical systems.
Finally, all the pieces which seemed so broken were glued back together in a way that not only made sense, but also empowered me to prevent future health concerns from blossoming.
…Modern Imbalances
Today, I am an advanced diagnostician (for example have been called several times a “Dr. House of TCM”, lol); master herbalist & classical acupuncturist, and an authority on fusing these ancient traditions with the modern evidence-based biomedicine. I assist you in blending the nutriceutical & superfoods of our planet that are appropriate for you – all the while giving you lifestyle counselling so you can live your Inspired Life.
After all, how can we reach our goals or potentials if our bodies, minds, and emotions aren’t cooperating?
