Who’s on Your Healing Squad?
Learn about what a Healing Squad is, and how I champion a nature-inspired guide to healing chronic pain, chronic fatigue, anxiety, depression, and countless other ailments contributing to a global pandemic of suffering.
Your Pain is Real
When it comes to chronic pain, most people’s struggles are not due to structural problems. It’s caused by patterns in the brain perceiving normal situations as threats, and this is due to programming that has occurred over one’s life experience, as well as some behaviors genetically ingrained from our ancestors’ evolution.
An Invitation to Heal
Humans are biologically inclined to seek pleasure and avoid pain, and when a pill is advertised as a quick fix to making a symptom go away, many of us opt in without even considering there could be an alternative.
Pain will always be a part of life, just as there must be darkness to the light. But suffering comes from resistance to what is and making hardship one’s identity.
A Nature-Inspired Approach to Healing Using Biomimicry
Explore biomimicry and its opportunity to influence healing. Biomimicry is a design framework that studies how biological organisms, processes, and systems functioning on Earth today have adapted strategies to solve problems related to those we experience in our human designs. It’s a methodological and philosophical approach, a way of perceiving the world around us and our collective interconnectedness.
Surviving a Traumatic Brain Injury: My Recovery Story
The brain makes us who we are. It shapes our personality. It processes our experiences. It regulates emotions. When the function of the brain’s ability to process information is damaged, there is no deeper presence of surrender possible—and no stronger need for loving care. This is my story of healing from a traumatic brain injury—a terribly tragic event that gave me a renewed mission for life. It’s a recovery story not yet concluded, but one of significance in marking milestones up until this point.
