Mind-body Connection with Dr Phil Parker episodes

  • Mind–Body Connection: Regaining Health — Marjon Oomens on Emotional Awareness and Shifting the Healthcare Paradigm

    From Walking Heads to Whole Human Beings

    In this episode of the Mind–Body Connection Podcast, Dr Phil Parker speaks with Marjon Oomens about her recovery from 20 years of chronic pain and the transformative role of the mind–body connection. Together they explore how emotional awareness — and learning to truly feel again — can open new pathways to healing.

     

    By shifting our focus from physical symptoms to underlying stress patterns, inner beliefs, and often unconsciously repressed emotions, new possibilities can open up for recovery, resilience, and prevention. Change begins with understanding how the brain responds to perceived unsafety — and with listening to the wisdom of the body.

    They also discuss Marjon’s work in leading the grassroots non-profit Emovere foundation, where recoverees and professionals join forces to share recovery experiences and scientific knowledge, creating a ripple effect to broaden the healthcare paradigm, and empower people to regain ownership of their health and wellbeing.

    An inspiring conversation about awareness, reconnecting with yourself, and creating meaningful change.
