#18 Eczema - Defending The Heart

Tracey Stevens
About this episode

The skin is a boundary and it tends to react when a physical, emotional or energetic boundary is crossed.
Eczema is a sign that our defences are activated. Notice the word 'shield' that this speaker uses.
 This conversation illustrates how a current situation has activated a past memory and a past fear of 'losing everything'.

If you have a physical condition you'd like to explore, please do visit my website and be a guest on my podcast.
