In this episode, I have the honor of talking with Dr. John Stracks and his wife Lisa Stracks. (See links below)

It's always insightful to talk with Mind Body Medicine professionals about how emotions cause physical sympoms, but it's another thing to talk to a couple willing to share how that plays out in their marriage.

A big thanks to both of them for their vulnerability and sharing their thoughts on marriage, new relationships, and parenting for those in Mind Body Syndrome/ TMS recovery.

Here are a few of the topics we cover.

1.Seeing Doctor Stracks as your physician.

2.Lisa's role at Cormendi Health

3.Anger - Life is lifey and we will always be presented with emotions that, left ignored, play out in chronic symptoms.

4.Marriage: What does it mean to feel the emotions in a healthy way in marriage or intimate relationships?

5.Relationships: What should those entering relationships with TMS/ Mind Body Syndrome be looking for in a partner?

6.Parenting: How do you teach your children about the mindbodyconnection so they recognize physical symptoms as emotional presenting in the body. They also discuss how to help children to begin the process of identifying their emotions.
