Wellness + Wisdom Podcast Dr. Kevin Preston | Holistic Detox: How to Break Free from Physical, Mental + Emotional Pain
Are you ready to learn how to heal your symptoms + radically transform your health?
Dr. Kevin Preston, Traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 712, to share why holistic detox goes far beyond physical organs, how suppressed emotions and generational trauma keep us stuck, why each organ in the body represents different emotions, and how combining different modalities can help us heal on a deeper level.
"The next level of detoxification is energetics and emotions, not just the physical organs. Because if you haven't addressed the suppressed anger of your life, do you think your liver is actually going to let those toxins go? No, it's going to stay stuck." - Dr. Kevin Preston

Power Quotes From The Show The Liver Is Processing Collective Trauma"We're moving from a place as a human species that was so mentalized into feeling our body more. No wonder the liver is under so much strain because it's being asked to do a lot. It's being asked to process our cumulative trauma as a culture, as a society, as well as massive amounts of chemical toxins. The amount of things that people have coming up to be cleansed and purified matches the collective energy on the planet at the same time." - Dr. Kevin Preston
Why Detox Is Necessary"There are a lot of toxins in the environment and our bodies are going to have to respond to that in some way. We are built to detox a lot, but when we stress our detox pathways over and over and over again, by overwhelming amounts of toxins coming in, they get fatigued. They need a rest. They need a break. But if we don't give the body a break of incoming toxins, it's not long before those filters get stuck." - Dr. Kevin Preston
Combining Different Healing Modalities"Let's get you doing a bit of breathwork. Let's get you seeing a somatic therapist because you're holding so much rage and anger right now. Your liver is like a clenched fist that I could try and soften with some herbs, but you're probably going to have a much greater and faster effect addressing the nervous system. And then let's start processing some of the physical stuff. Let's do some acupuncture, get a massage, or maybe get some lymphatic drainage." - Dr. Kevin Preston
