Episode 158: Eranda Wickramasinghe

Life's Best Medicine Podcast - A podcast by Dr. Brian Lenzkes - Wednesdays

Thank you for tuning in for another episode of Life’s Best Medicine.  Eranda’s greatest joy is his family. He is privileged to live a life of abundance and in many ways, he owes this to three extraordinary women: His mother, who gave him life, raised him as best she could while she suffered violent domestic abuse, she is the bravest person he knows. His sister, she has the biggest heart of anyone he knows, for never giving up hope for a better future for our mother. His wife Ruth, the love of his life, the most wonderful mother to his two beautiful boys. Meeting her was the best thing that has ever happened to Eranda, and it was turning point in his life towards healing from past trauma, leaving aside anger and bitterness and realising how fabulous life can be. The cycle of intergenerational trauma can be stopped. Eranda’s greatest wish is to raise his two beautiful boys into strong, confident, kind and compassionate men, free from the anger and bitterness that belongs in the past. Eranda is a volunteer health coach for The Public Health Collaboration (phcuk.org) charity and as part of The Lifestyle Club initiative he has coached 58 patients with Type 2 Diabetes or Prediabetes in order to achieve drug free remission, a programme which has helped over 600 patients across the UK. Eranda has had his own health journey, from prediabetic and obese in August 2019 to full remission since January 2020 adopting intermittent fasting and low carb real food eating as a lifestyle. He is grateful every day for the health and happiness he enjoys. In his professional life, Eranda is an accountant with experience in a number of industries ranging from Energy, Manufacturing, Retail and Essential Infrastructure Support. In this episode, Brian and Eranda talk about Eranda’s childhood, domestic abuse, the connection between emotional/physical child abuse and domestic abuse, working through past traumas, breaking cycles of abuse in your family, advice for anyone dealing with an abusive relationship, and why focusing on relational health is essential for holistic health. Thank you for listening.
