Do you regularly experience unexplainable pain or physical symptoms like brain fog and migraines, a dull feeling in your stomach, or a strange pressure in your chest?

And are these symptoms strangely tied to your relationships, dating scenarios, social situations, your everyday working life or just appear throughout the day?

Than chances are high, that you frustratedly ran from doctors office to doctors office, but no healthcare professional ever had a reason what’s actually wrong with you.

Now let me tell you the reason, WHY most physicians can’t explain these symptoms, and it’s all written down in here: It’s because, they are actually not physically caused, but psychologically.

Here are 10 Body Symptoms that are probably linked to your Mental Health and unresolved childhood trauma.
