A short conversational excerpt from a YouTube interview titled "Turning Pain Into Purpose with Dr. Christina Rahm." Gary Brecka and another speaker discuss how pain and joy drive people to solve problems, and the other speaker describes using nutritional, pharmaceutical, spiritual, emotional, and mental strategies—including detox efforts—outside mainstream medical support.
Some of the most impactful people are people that have solved the problem. And when you're confronted with a problem like that, joy and pain are huge motivators and people. We aggressively seek joy, and we aggressively want to avoid pain. And sometimes pain and painful situations and traumatic situations are just the motivation that we need to stick to figuring out a solution. Because it's just as much to say, I want to feel better or I want to feel different than it is to say, I do not want to feel the way that I do right now.
I'm sure you've seen this in your career. It's a mixture, in my opinion, of taking different steps, nutritionally, even sometimes pharmaceutically, spiritually, emotionally, and mentally, believing in yourself. And from my perspective, I really started studying things that could detox my body, not really having any support from the medical community at the time.
