The Autoimmune Hour

Has your ability to power through ‘all-this’ been squelched? Are you feeling stressed, tired, and maybe even fearful of ‘what next?’ You’re not alone; that’s why I invite back to the show Tamara Green and David Dachinger of https://lovingmeditations.com/ back to the show… 

What if you could calm down, refocus, and quell anxiety in as little as two minutes? Think about everything that would change if you could:
• Sleep better and focus more
• Not let anxiety rule your decisions
• Have more time for what’s important
• Let go of stress and angst effortlessly
• Vanquish fear and come from love and more….

About our Guests: In 2013, David Dachinger and Tamara Green heard the six words that changed everything… “David, you have stage IV cancer!” Choosing to focus on the gifts rather than the difficulties, they stayed calm, grateful, and even optimistic, with David avoiding severe health complications from his treatment.


David’s results sparked his oncologist to ask what they were doing to remain so upbeat. “Whatever it is,” he said, “I want that for all of my patients and families!” It was a ‘light-bulb moment,’ and Loving Meditations was born.

It seems like the right time to have an encore of Sarah Peyton’s, and my chat about Alarmed Aloneness. A state that’s not ‘fight-or-flight’ and yet not contentment or social engagement… Alarmed Aloneness is where we get an elevated heart rate and increased cortisol because somebody (or something) who is important to us has disappeared.

When Sarah Peyton, shared her theory with me, I knew we had to have her back as she is the person who has given a name to this emotional state that many with long-term conditions can relate.

Sarah is an international speaker and #1 bestselling author who has a passion for weaving together neuroscience knowledge and healing experiences to unify our emotional brains and bodies. She makes Interpersonal Neurobiology research available to all, so we can understand how this new area of study can dynamically change the trajectory of our healing. In this episode, Sarah shares:
• What is alarmed Aloneness and why it is essential to be aware of,
• How alarmed Aloneness can affect us and those we love,
• What we can do to change alarmed Aloneness into connections,
• How physical symptoms, our emotions, and past trauma are intertwined,
and so much more….

She creates change using precision resonant language that easily creates insights and transformation. Besides her Interpersonal Neurobiology research, Sarah also brings her long-term study of Nonviolent Communication and 3-D body-centered explorations of families over generations through Family Constellation work.
