Improve the state of your mind, body and spirit with Energy Kinesiology.   In this episode, we discuss the 7 stages of Emotional Processing, autoimmune diseases in relation to trauma, Burnout, the Polyvagal Nerve Theory and more!    Energy kinesiology, also known as applied kinesiology, is a holistic technique that uses muscle testing to uncover hidden ailments and determines and corrects the root cause of illness on a biochemical, genetic, and emotional level. While traditional medicine heals on a chemical level with drugs, applied kinesiology heals on an energy level. Energy healing affects your energy field on multiple levels, including chakras, acupressure meridians, tree of life, and higher self-connection among others. Energy kinesiology is not a solo diagnostic tool, but rather a part of a complete holistic treatment protocol. Energy healing empowers the body to remove blockages to health and heal itself. ~* Steven Hansen, Dynamic Energies    For some, this episode might be triggering.
