Power Quotes From The Show

The Launchpad Of Transformational Medicine

"We're moving from this allopathic medical arena from over the last hundred years now more and more into functional medicine which is an improvement for sure but it's still fairly reductionistic. Now we're growing into this launchpad of transformational medicine which is the combination of hardware and software technologies i.e. neurology and psychology. If you take the analogy of a computer, once you uplevel the hardware and the software together, then you have the best opportunity to completely accelerate the operating system and the performance of the engagement between us and our other world." - Dr. Dan Engle

 

The Power Of Healing Psychologically

"For the best, long-term overall success, patients not only have to heal from the physical damage that's been done and get their body back into a really strong balance of homeostasis but they also have to come to grips with their traumas psychologically to help themselves fully heal from the traumatic event that may have happened to them." - Dr. Josh Flowers

 

Healing The Individual Patient

"Healing the brain is not about overcoming the traumas but integrating them into a more full experience of the whole human. Our traumatic events are often times are things that significantly shape us, mature us, and quicken or consciousness. If we take a more whole-person perspective, a full-spectrum process of assessment, and appreciate the fact that everybody has their own unique constitutional wiring, then we can work people through and help them work through a process of recovering and healing."  - Dr. Dan Engle

 

Starting To Understand How Your Mind Works

"You have to start becoming aware of yourself and your own internal landscaping to realize that things are off. Step into that role, know who you are, and become comfortable with yourself because a lot of times our society tells us to not pay attention to that background chatter and what's going on but the more you come in tune with it and in control of it, the more you start to sort things out. That's where mindfulness, meditation, and breathwork are the best tools that we have within ourselves. Start diving into your own mindset and psyche to see what comes up, understanding why the brain brings it up and looking at it from a non-judgemental standpoint."  - Dr. Josh Flowers
