Did you know that your heart has a brain?In fact, there are more connections running from the heart to the brain than from the brain to the heart! (Think about that for a second.)We've all heard the expression "dying of a broken heart." It may sound hard to believe, but the phenomenon is quite real. Unresolved emotions like grief, anger, or fear can quietly build pressure in the body and contribute to issues like high blood pressure, heart rhythm problems, and worse. The hidden strain of emotional pains of the past affect the physical health of the heart, taking a toll over a lifetime of real and imagined stressors. Your emotional health is a direct input into your physical health. So before you ignore your body and reflexively say "I'm fine," now is a good time to take a deep breath, check in with yourself for a moment and ask, "how do I feel in my heart?"When we're hurt physically or emotionally, our body and nervous system naturally engage guarding mechanisms. In the wild, injured animals withdraw from socializing and normal tasks and hide until they're healed. But in humans, the fight, flight, and freeze response can go haywire. Our fragile nervous systems face a constant barrage of unnatural, overstimulating modern stressors that eat away at our health, vitality, and sanity.When natural healing processes are interrupted, we can develop subconscious maladaptive patterns of avoidance, isolation, and lack of connection. This incomplete healing can feel like you're not fully alive or not fully present, yet also completely overwhelmed. (After getting my bell rung pretty good recently in a hit-and-run car wreck, I can say I've been there myself.) After a lifetime of struggles, you might not feel not quite so free, open, and alive as a child chasing butterflies in the backyard. So how can you create the life you dream about when your energy is being drained by the emotional baggage?How can we build profound connections with people we care about if our hearts are shuttered behind protective defensive emotions?The paradox is that pain and struggle actually shape us into the people we're meant to become. Some even call it the human condition. This week's guest offers that our trials may even serve a divine purpose.No matter what life has in store for us, the good news is that the human body has a remarkable (and often miraculous) ability to heal.
