Ideas That Inspire: Uplifting Conversations For A Better World

8. Emotions & the Body: Understanding the Connection for Better Health


Listen Later

What if your emotions could be the key to better physical health? 🤔

In this episode, I’m joined by Kim Knight from Art Of Health — also known as the Kiwi Health Detective. Kim is a Root Cause and Lifestyle Medicine practitioner with over 20 years of clinical experience helping people heal from chronic pain and fatigue.

After overcoming multiple chronic illnesses herself, she’s passionate about helping others tap into the body’s natural ability to heal — and trust themselves when it comes to their own health. Her work focuses on getting to the root cause of health challenges — and often, that root is buried in unprocessed emotions.

We dive into the fascinating connection between emotions and the body, how emotional energy gets stored in different organs, and simple tools to help you validate, acknowledge and process feelings instead of pushing them aside and hoping they’ll disappear.


⬇️ What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • How emotions can physically impact your health and energy levels
  • Why anxiety and depression are symptoms, not emotions themselves
  • Practical tools to recognise, allow, and clear emotional energy
  • The power of emotional intelligence and how it can change your wellbeing


âś… Who this episode is for:

This conversation is for anyone curious about the link between mind and body, navigating chronic health challenges, or wanting to build more emotional resilience as an entrepreneur, business owner, or human.


Hit play and remember: If emotions have ever felt overwhelming — you’re not alone, and understanding them might be the first step to feeling better.

Let’s light up the world together, one idea at a time. 🌟
