The Meaningful Life with Andrew G. Marshall

Henry Emmons: The Road to Calm and Joy (Re-issue)


Listen Later

Do you experience regular bad headaches, or a stomach upset that won’t go away? Do you have nagging aches you put down to getting older?

Mind and body are two parts of the same system: problems like depression and anxiety almost always manifest in the physical body as well as the mind. 

The road to calm and joy is much faster if we can ensure to take care of mind AND body. 

Author and integrative psychiatrist Dr Henry Emmons looks at mental health problems like depression and anxiety by weaving together mind-body and natural therapies, mindfulness teachings and other holistic approaches. 

Dr Emmons is also a sought-after presenter and consultant on integrating natural and mindfulness therapies in psychiatry, the interface between spirituality and mental health, and personal and professional renewal. 

We hope you enjoy this very early The Meaningful Life episode we’ve reissued for Christmas 2023: what better topic to get you through the holiday season than “the road to calm and joy”?
