249 - How Your Mind Affects Your Health with Dr. Kim D’Eramo

Switch4Good

Our guest today is physician, author, and founder of the American Institute of MindBody Medicine, Dr. Kim D’Eramo. Dr. D’Eramo started her career in Emergency Medicine. There, she observed that many patients with chronic illness had a mental and emotional component that kept them in their disease. After being diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder herself, she was forced to confront the shortcomings of the medical world that she knew so well. She embarked on a healing journey and now dedicates her career to sharing the power of mind-body medicine on her YouTube channel and in her book, The MindBody Toolkit: 10 Tools to Increase Your Energy, Enhance Productivity, and Even Reverse Disease. Dr. D’Eramo empowers us to heal and get happy by tapping into the body’s inherent wisdom.

So tune in as we discuss the principles of mind-body medicine, the power we have over our health, and so much more!

“There’s a lot of wrongness that gets put on ill health. Like, I used to do this to myself. Like, oh my God, why did I get sick? I didn’t drink enough water. I shouldn’t have eaten that thing. Shouldn’t have had that glass of wine. Like, I would destroy myself over being tired, and I realized after years that’s really not what’s happening with illness. And so it isn’t like, it’s my fault I was abused. Or, it’s my fault I had chronic fatigue. Because we would never consciously choose any of that. But I can take responsibility. I can take 100% responsibility for all of the outcomes in my life, and until I’m willing to do that, I won’t access the power I can in order to change all of it. So, it’s really an invitation, and I would invite people to just really soften around where they feel wronged, or judged, or regretful. Like, if I’m that powerful, I should have figured this out years ago, and that’s not really true. Now is the moment. There’s never before. It’s only now.” – Dr. Kim D’Eramo
