But if you don't heal the trauma.

But if you don't heal the trauma, then you're not actually gonna be well.

And I've seen this.

Yeah, so this is, and you know, if you look to trauma,

is disproportionately also associated with autoimmune disease.

Because basically that chronic activation of the immune system- That's what it is.

Gets that immune system to the point that it's just like totally confused.

Because I guess in your mind, if you've experienced trauma,

You know, and for me, I experienced different parts of trauma growing up.

If you experience some type of psychological, sexual, emotional trauma, physical trauma, and you don't learn how to heal that psychologically or emotionally or spiritually, there's some type of underlying like guilt.

like resentment, anger, sadness, loss that you are just living with, that you haven't figured out how to process, specifically if you're five, seven, 12, and you don't have the tools on how to process, whether it be some type of therapy or something else that allows you to grieve, to rediscover your identity, to mend that emotional wound.

And so when you live with this feeling that you are not enough,

for decades of your life, or that you're unworthy, or that you're unlovable, or that you're bad, or that you're wrong, or something's off with you, if that is your unconscious mind ruminating 24-7, that is building this, I guess, inflammation in your mind, in your body.

It's weakening you in some ways, which, again, is weakening your gut, is what I'm hearing you say.

Yeah.

And so a few things.

Number one, I have seen this in many patients, right?

That the like the greatest moments of my career as a medical doctor and I was trying to figure out, like, how many patients have I taken care of?

And I landed on it's somewhere in the range of 75 to 100,000.

Wow.
