702. Emotions and Disease w/ Zach Bush...

Heal Squad
About this episode

This Heal Squad All Stars episode guides us in exploring the root cause of disease (our emotions) and the profound impact of emotions on our overall health. Of all our show's many sentiments, this may be our most important.

Joining us are All Stars, Dr. Zach Bush, a respected physician and educator known for understanding the gut microbiome, health and the interconnectedness of all living systems. An acclaimed therapist, Nicole Sachs uncovers the powerful role that emotions play in our physical well-being and specializes in mind-body healing with her JournalSpeak™ technique. Lastly, Dr. Gabor Maté, a renowned addiction expert, explores the link between childhood experiences, emotional well-being, health, and addictions.

Together, they unravel the intricate web of how emotions manifest as physical illness, uncovering the underlying factors contributing to disease. They also share invaluable insights, practical tips, and stories to help us comprehend the mind-body connection and optimize our well-being.

Dr. Zach Bush

  • Embrace Discomfort and Pain: Rather than resisting, move into and sit in discomfort to discover your true self and therapeutic outcomes.
  • Pain as a Catalyst for Realignment
  • The Importance of Emotional Processing: long-standing traumas and unprocessed (unseen and unheard) emotions manifest illness.
  • Taking responsibility for one's well-being: the medical field's lack of emotional education, burnout among healthcare providers and recognizing the limitations of external blame.

Nicole Sachs

  • Honesty and Truth: difficult or uncomfortable truths lead to underlying causes, personal growth and healing.
  • Compassion and Forgiveness: understanding limitations that led to outcomes that foster empathy and release feelings of anger or blame.
  • Consistency and Self-care: journal speak and self-care practices build resilience, deepen understanding, create long-term relief and cultivate peace and self-alignment.

Dr. Gabor Mate

  • Importance of Healthy Anger: asserting boundaries is essential for well-being, while suppressing anger compromises mental and physical health.
  • Repressed Emotions and Illness: the development of illnesses, including autoimmune diseases, and how to alleviate them.
  • Setting and Maintaining Boundaries: recognizing when your boundaries are crossed and asserting oneself to protect mental and emotional health.
