On Sacred Harmony, host Pragya sits down with DK Kang—author, martial artist, and wellness advocate—to unpack resilience as a daily spiritual practice. From breathwork, Bible study, and movement, to plant-forward eating and ancestral ferments like kimchi, DK shares how he and his wife navigated infertility, a 2024 breast-cancer diagnosis, and a sudden layoff. We explore reframing setbacks, habit stacking, and taking small, consistent actions that restore agency. If you’re in a hard season, this conversation offers grounded tools—not hype—to help you move forward with clarity and discipline. About the guest  : DK Kang is an author and long-time martial artist who blends mindset training, spiritual discipline, and plant-based living. His book Mindset Metamorphosis focuses on practical steps to get unstuck and take ownership. He offers a newsletter with a free first chapter download and is most responsive via email.   Key takeaways: Resilience is built through daily practice—breathwork, short meditation, movement, and spiritual reading—not through occasional bursts of willpower. Reframing matters: shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “Why not me—and how can this experience serve others?” Small steps compound: one healthy meal cooked at home each week; a 10-minute walk; one page written. Consistency beats intensity. Food as medicine: prioritizing whole, minimally processed, plant-forward foods and traditional ferments (e.g., kimchi) can support digestion, energy, mood, and immune function. Gut health is foundational: fermented foods provide probiotics that may support immune resilience; focus on nourishment you can control at home. Values guide choices: define what matters (e.g., showing up for a loved one’s treatment) and align your calendar accordingly. Reflect to stay motivated: review where you were 6–12 months ago to recognize progress when day-to-day gains feel slow. Own your next action: mentors, therapy, and practical frameworks (habit stacking, discipline, clear goals) help convert insight into motion.   Medical Disclaimer: The views shared in this episode are personal experiences and opinions and are provided for educational and informational purposes only.
