SEASON 4 of Mind Your Own Karma is highlighting the effects of trauma and stress on the body, and talking about all the ways it can be unraveled. Healing is possible, and I believe that among all this juicy information I have for you this season, you'll find the right healing combination for you.

Neuroplastic Symptoms: How Hidden Trauma Can Cause Chronic Pain and Medically Unexplained Symptoms with Dr. David Clarke

Have you ever experienced chronic pain, fatigue, or other mysterious symptoms—only to be told by doctors that everything looks “normal”? If so, you’re not alone. Many people suffer from physical symptoms that don’t show up on standard medical tests, leaving them frustrated and without answers.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. David Clarke, a leading expert in the mind-body connection and a key figure at the Association for Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms (ATNS). We dive deep into how unresolved trauma, stress, and suppressed emotions can manifest as real, debilitating physical symptoms. If you’ve ever been told “It’s all in your head,” this conversation will change the way you think about your health.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ Why modern medicine often overlooks the mind-body connection.

✅ How emotional stress can create very real physical symptoms

✅ The science behind neuroplastic symptoms.

✅ What to do if you think you could be suffering with neuroplastic symptoms.
