In this episode, I speak with former Chiropractor and founder and author of The Emotion Code, Dr Bradley Nelson about the Emotion Code and how he invented this form of energy medicine.

I was particularly keen to share Dr Brad's views on what trapped emotions are, what conditions they can cause, and how The Emotion Code works.

In this week's episode, I share the amazing, inspirational story of fitness expert, Fitz Koehler.

Fitz shares her story of how she overcame breast cancer, including the story of how she successfully got through 15-months of torturous treatment with the aid of exercise, nutrition, a positive mindset, a great outlook on life and seeking joy. 

We also had an interesting debate over red meat and whether the science supports the claim that red meat consumption causes cancer. Suffice to say, we respectfully agreed to disagree like adults on that subject. 

After the interview, Fitz kindly sent me a link to the science that suggests that red meat increases the risk of colon cancer by 28%. I have included the link in the show notes. I have also included a link to a critique by Dr Paul Saladino of the research that makes those claims.

I would never suggest you believe anything I or my guests say, but would always suggest you do your own research and come to your own conclusions.  The links provided are good place to begin research into that subject, should you wish to do so.

I really hope you enjoy this episode and take inspiration from it.

In this week’s episode entitled “Stored Emotions and Trauma Create Chronic Pain”, I spoke with Lyn Delmastro-Thomson, a talented healer and hypnotist, sought-after speaker and author of the Amazon best-seller “You Are Not Your Diagnosis.”

Lyn has tremendous understanding and compassion for her clients because she herself struggled with a life-changing health crisis too. She is passionate about sharing the message that our bodies can heal from serious health issues… when we have the right support.
