Mindset Medicine- The Science Behind Values-Driven Healing- Episode 58
In this heartfelt and thought-provoking episode, we’re coming to you from beautiful Naples, Florida — where we’re recharging and reflecting on over three decades of working together to help clients reclaim their health.
This week’s focus: Mindset and the Brain.
We share a real-life story of a young man navigating life after multiple concussions — and how his beliefs about healing became as important to address as the physical symptoms themselves.
We’ll explore:
- The hidden weight of chronic health challenges on mental resilience
- Why traditional healthcare often misses the mindset piece
- How negative affectivity and somatic hypervigilance limit recovery
- Practical ways to shift emotional and mental patterns to unlock healing
- The critical role of connection, understanding, and hope in any recovery journey
Whether you’re healing from something physical, emotional, or spiritual — this episode is for you.
