Autoimmunity & Emotions

Autoimmunity & Emotions Hosted by: David Gilks

“I am having a conversation around the topic of Autoimmunity & Emotions as there is a strong connection between the two, though there is much more complexity than that to be sure.

The reason for looking at the emotional connection is that it is well documented that the suppression of emotions disrupts immune function & drives pro-inflammatory processes in the body. Imagine if we could, with surgical precision, alter the deep-seated emotional blockages, & begin to help the body heal? I think there is an important triad of possibilities to put together, from removing the blockages to helping the body heal by supporting the reduction of the inflammation & then creating a series of simple but daily rituals to ensure that this does not happen again.

Autoimmune diseases are idiopathic, which means of unknown origin. I am not suggesting that there will be a simple solution for all disorders like these, but unless we start looking at our wellness & disease process as a bio-psycho-social problem, we will never find a solution.”

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
