Shay and Mona discuss how emotional trauma gets trapped in the body, causing physical symptoms like inflammation, cancer, and autoimmune disease. Most people operate in extreme anxiety and disconnection from their emotions. Healing requires releasing these stored feelings.

Most people on a scale of 0 to 10, 10 being the highest, are functioning their daily lives with a 10 anxiety, 10 depression, 10 sadness or depersonalization, which means you can't even connect to your own emotions so you don't even know what you do feel.
Right. Let's shift that into this concept of the body keeps score emotional trauma. And in order.
For healing to take place, what we're really talking.
About is just unleashing these emotions in the body. How do you explain their emotional trauma?
Whether it was.
Something major or minor from the past, whatever it is, it's still trauma that's stored in your body.
If you don't take care of the emotional body, it will manifest into a physical symptom which then causes inflammation which then gives you a whole host of, you know, other physical symptoms, things like cancer and autoimmune disease. It's all suppressed anger, all suppressed sadness and anger that has nowhere for the grief to go.
