Whether we turn to herbs, pharmaceuticals or panic, most of us are conditioned to believe something is “wrong” when we experience uncomfortable symptoms in our body. What if, instead of orienting to what needs to be “fixed”, we saw our symptoms as brilliant, adaptive, and part of the healing process? Today I’m talking with Dr. Melissa Sell, a chiropractor who specializes in mindset and health coaching based upon the 5 Biological Laws of Germanic New Medicine --  a paradigm of understanding the body that orients to our symptoms not as a problem, but rather as an adaptation that happens in response to a conflict. In our conversation, we explore: The ancient wisdom of evolutionary adaptation How the conflicts we experience in life impact our physiology — beyond the explanation of “stress” How we might shift our orientation to our symptoms from being a “problem” to being adaptive and an element of healing The science of embryology and how different organs correspond to different parts of our brain Why it matters that our primal brain is wired to reproduce, regardless of our conscious desire How we can reframe cervical dysplasia as an adaptive process, and the connection to conflicts around sex Forgiveness and release for the sake of our organs and tissues The role of self responsibility in agency in shifting our relationship with our body and health Collect with Melissa on Instagram and her website to learn more about germanic healing knowledge and her offerings!   Join the Womb Room Community Membership
