Emotional pain comes from an internal split between what our encultured mind believes and what feels deeply true in our hearts. When this emotional pain becomes stored in the body, it can be one of the most toxic disrupters of our health. So how does this happen? How do non-physical emotions get stored in the physical body, and how can we rethink the relationship between our psychological state and our physical health, as researchers are doing in the field of psycho-immunology? In this episode we talk about what inner integrity might mean, how the mind can sometimes perceive stress is ‘normal’ even though the body knows the truth, and what tools we can use to reclaim aspects of our own truth and inner integrity that we’ve abandoned along the way of messy real life.
