Growth and Learning through Adversity - emotional imprints in the body create chronic illness
In this 16 min talk I cover how we as humans often learn through adversity - especially if we get ill in some way via chronic anxiety/depression or physical illness. But often our responses are scripted by past emotional experiences which teach us who we are and therefore limit our beliefs about ourselves and thus our behaviours. This can cause us to do things like pushing through, ignoring our needs, overworking, dissociating our emotions and becoming hyper-vigilant to threat ('it's not safe').
