When Kris medically retired from service, he found himself going through the motions. The Army Veteran, who saw combat in Iraq, sought treatment for PTSD, traumatic brain injury, and knee and back pain — though he wasn’t getting anything out of the experience so much as he was checking boxes. Then, in 2020, his health further deteriorated due to a severe bout of COVID-19. That’s when Kris made a life-changing — and lifesaving — decision to adopt a Whole Health mindset. Not only did his newfound approach help him overcome COVID-19, but it also empowered him to address another aspect of his health: his weight. With a Whole Health philosophy on-board, Kris lost over 60 pounds on his way to becoming a happier, healthier husband and father of two.
