How Humans Heal

In this episode, I'm joined by Ann Smollon. Ann is a social worker who specializes in psychotherapy. For more than 25 years, she has had the privilege of treating people from all walks of life who have had a variety of needs: Individuals and couples who are struggling and are desirous of greater peace and harmony in their relationship, families seeking greater interpersonal harmony, using specialized conflict resolution treatment, along with children who may be having difficulty in school or who may be suffering from certain forms of learning challenges or bullying, or adolescents who may be experiencing emotional turmoil or lack of direction.

Here’s what we share about:

• How stress gets stored in our brain and our bodies
• It’s possible for new neural pathways to be created
• Using Internal Family System Therapy to help your brain heal
• Identifying blocks and beliefs that prevent our true self from shining through
• How non-judgment and small steps lead to big changes

Welcome back to How Humans Heal with Dr. Doni! Have you been wondering whether you should take collagen powder? What is collagen anyway, and if you swallow it, can it really help your skin to prevent wrinkles and prevent joint pain?

Collagen is an essential part of our body structure, including our skin, ligaments, tendons, bones, hair, blood vessels, and even our teeth. Type 1 collagen is the most common type of collagen in our bodies, but even still, each of us has quite unique collagen production based on our genetics, our age and our stress exposure. Those of us, like me, with Ehler’s Danlos or hypermobility have extra flexible collagen, which can lead to health issues such as joint pain. Learn more about how you can support your collagen production with diet, nutrients, and supplements.
