Trauma is an interesting teacher. How we respond to it can impact us in ways we never imagined. Looking back on my life and recalling the times I struggled the most with my health, an interesting pattern emerges: It was often rooted in fear of the unknown, feeling attacked, or feeling victimized.

We know that trauma can impact us physically and create disease states. I've seen this in my own family and in the people I serve. Yet too often we walk around in a fog without the ability to make these connections.

On today's show, I'm talking with Dr. Melissa Sell, a chiropractor and awareness coach who teaches from the German New Medicine healing paradigm. She helps people understand their symptoms, guides them in developing self-awareness and body trust, and teaches inner shifts for creating a deep sense of peace and well-being. 

In this episode, Dr. Sell explains how the “five biological laws” of German New Medicine can help us understand the connection between certain conflicts and physical health. She shares a case study of a woman with psoriasis, as well as her own personal struggles with acne, and how understanding the root causes led to their resolution and healing in both cases.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The importance of developing self-awareness and body trust.
• How trauma impacts us physically and creates disease states.
• The root causes of our symptoms and the connection between our emotions and physical health.
• The psyche-brain-organ connection, and how the body activates a biological program specific to that situation.
• Temporary inflammation as a sign of healing and repairing
• How chronic conflicts activate a cycle of chronic inflammation.
