What’s the long-term relationship between trauma healing, diet and lifestyle? This has to do with the whole healing journey.
I’ve come to see that a diagnosis isn’t just a medical event, but a deeply personal moment that impacts your sense of self. When you begin to ask more audacious questions about your diagnosis, it changes how you relate to it and becomes the starting point of your health story.
When I look back on my own Hashimoto’s diagnosis, I see how deeply I once trusted the system without questioning it. People respond to a diagnosis in different ways. For me, it was the immediate urge to fix it, leaving no room for worry. Others may feel fear or that something is wrong with them.
Belief alone can shape your physical experience. I share a moment when I was convinced I had lice and spent 24 hours scratching my head, only to find there were none. This revealed how real the nocebo effect can be.
At one point, I found myself sitting in front of a voice teacher, confronting my resistance to expressing myself. It made me question how the stories we believe impact our ability to heal from trauma.
Ultimately, there will be a time when you relate to your body differently and can close this healing chapter.

20:16] How to know when it's time to close the healing chapter and stop being a professional patient
