I am delighted that my recent TEDx talk is now published on YouTube where I discuss the impact hidden emotions can have on your physical health and wellbeing.
Few realize that many of us harbor within us very powerful emotions that we are completely unaware of. And that those powerful but hidden emotions persist and silently affect our health more than the emotions that we do feel.
Their impact on our health is only now coming to light, challenging traditional beliefs about the mind/body connection.
This new understanding opens the door to consideration of new pathways that can be of value in the treatment and healing of many chronic medical conditions.
Dr. Samuel Mann is a physician, researcher, and author. He specializes in the management of hypertension at the New York-Presbyterian Hospital-Weill Cornell Medical College, where he is a Professor of Clinical Medicine. In his research and clinical practice he has focused on the optimization of pharmacologic treatment of hypertension, while also pioneering a new understanding of the mind/body connection that brings attention to the unrecognized role of repressed emotions.
Hidden Within Us: A Radical New Understanding of the Mind-Body Connection
This award-winning book by Dr. Mann dives deep into the relationship between repressed emotion and illness. Our ability to repress emotions is a vital gift of evolution, but, silently, the emotions we've repressed do persist and can affect our health years later. This recognition can lead to new pathways to understanding, treatment, and healing.
