Western medicine has led us to believe that each part of our lives needs to be treated separately, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. If we want to thrive in all aspects, we need to move towards a holistic solution.
By becoming more in tune with our minds, bodies, and souls, it’s easier to integrate past traumas and truly heal. In turn, we’re able to do what we were put on this earth to do, which is to give and receive love.
The problem is, with so many of us being taught to compartmentalize our lives, many of us simply don’t know how to increase our consciousness.
How can we break the cycle and start taking action towards a more fulfilled existence? What can we do to take back control of our well-being?
In this episode, Medical Director of Pedre Integrative Health and President of Dr. Pedre Wellness, Dr. Vincent Pedre shares how we can heal at all levels.
Everything is integrated, and everything matters. -Dr. Vincent Pedre
Three Takeaways:
Why we need to pinpoint where we feel our traumas:
Our psychological state has a big impact on our physical bodies, so to heal ailments holistically, we have to be aware of where we feel our emotions. Be mindful of physical sensations when feelings like sadness or anxiety arise.
How to stop the cycle of downplaying emotions:
Society has conditioned men to believe showing emotion is not masculine, and as a result far too many internalize their feelings instead of dealing with them head-on. Break the cycle by acknowledging that emotion is a human experience and encouraging other men to embrace displaying their feelings.
How to break the habit of feeling like a victim:
Everything we do is a choice, and once we realize this we can step into our power. We have what it takes to create our own reality, we just need to be willing to take responsibility for our lives.
