S4 E 28 - Tinnitus is Curable! (So is Vertigo and Vestibular Migraine) with Dr. Yo

Dr. Yonit Arthur is an audiologist who is helping people climb out of their chronic tinnitus, vestibular migraine, vertigo, and other related conditions by sharing a message that you have come to know well: NOTHING IS STRUCTURALLY WRONG WITH YOU.

It is just to say that, like me, she is frustrated with the medical model and the way patients are not getting better. We share a similar passion for carrying this hope of recovery. If you or anyone you love has ever been diagnosed with ay of these conditions or related concerns, please give this episode a listen. It could be the first step in profoundly changing a life.

S4 E27 - All Over Musculoskeletal Pain, Post-Viral Infection Symptoms, and SO MUCH MORE with Scotty

Scotty's symptom list is so long I'm not sure I can remember it all to include here, but let's give it a try: back, neck, foot, leg, arm, wrist pain, "tennis elbow," pelvic and groin pain, anxiety, panic, depression, dissociation, tooth sensitivity, burning mouth, and post viral infection symptoms. When you listen, you'll hear the whole thing from his mouth! It may sound unusual, but often in the rearview mirror we end up identifying a lifetime of TMS that has plagued us and led us to live in fear. As I always advise, Scotty took the medical route for each of these diagnoses, but found himself despairing with no enduring solutions. When he finally came upon the work of Dr. Sarno, the game began to change. When he found my work via a YouTube interview I gave, everything started to make sense. Join us today for a conversation with someone who REALLY talks and talk and walks the walk. Loved connecting with Scotty and dropping so many moments of truth. You're sure to be motivated to keep going. Lots of love to everyone out there. It takes willingness and intention, but this work can change your life.
