We live in a hyper-connected world, but more people are more disconnected than ever before. Why? It’s easier than ever to get out of sync with the natural rhythms of our energy and spend the majority of life in a fight-or-flight state. It’s partly because of technology and screen time and because of a lack of integrated movement throughout the day. It’s largely because people just don’t know how to connect and find flow—that optimal state of being where we are one with our body and the universe and where we feel and perform at our very best.

On today’s episode of The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru talks to Dr. John Amaral, a chiropractor, author and educator who has worked behind-the-scenes helping A-List celebrities, entrepreneurs, athletes, influencers and thought-leaders elevate their energy so that they feel and perform their best. Dr. Amaral helps his clients self-heal physical injuries, reduce stress, anxiety and depression, and stay in the energetic flow amidst the challenges of everything from running enterprises to pushing the envelope of human performance. He is also the founder of Body Centered Leadership, a program that combines cutting-edge neuroscience, quantum physics principles and ancient wisdom practices to help participants create and sustain new levels of energy, clarity, and fulfillment. Dr. Amaral is featured in the recent GOOP Lab Netflix series with Gwyneth Paltrow.

In this episode, Dhru and Dr. Amaral talk about how disconnection from our inner world is caused by internalization, and how many of us don’t communicate our true feelings with the people we interact with in our day-to-day lives, often for fear of what they might think of us. They discuss how physical pain can be related to emotional stagnation, and how we can release stored stress, pain, and trauma from our body. They also talk about how to make a true connection with ourselves through the natural rhythms of our body and energy. 

In this episode, we dive into: 

-What is our energy field and what makes it thrive or not 

-How disconnection from our inner world can create stress, pain, and trauma in our body 

-How we release tension and energy from our body 

-How to change our conditioned patterns 

-What the pain we experience in our body really means 

-How unexpressed emotion can lead to dis-ease in the body 

-What the messages your get from your body mean and what happens when you ignore them

My personal favorite water filter, and the one I use and trust, is the AquaTru filter. It features a 4-stage filtration that removes 20 times more contaminants than the best-selling water filter. It removes things like lead, PFOA, hexavalent chromium (remember Erin Brockovich, that’s what she was known for) and so much more. With the current emphasis on boosting and supporting your immune system, there is no better time to invest in clean water for you and your loved ones. And right now, my podcast listeners can access the AquaTru water filter for only $299. That’s $150 off the normal price. All you have to do is go to drhyman.com/filter.
