“We have compelling data to suggest that your nervous system is the greatest pharmacist in the world that it makes drugs that work better than any drug in a drug store.”

Healing requires cultivating compassion for oneself to recognize past coping mechanisms as adaptations that can be transformed.

“We need to be very kind to ourselves and that's why I'm saying compassionate inquiry. Uh there's a spiritual teacher who says that only when compassion is present will people allow themselves to see the truth.”

Healing requires forgiveness of both oneself and others to overcome the darkness and pain prevalent in the world.

One can intentionally choose to move away from negative emotions and prioritize well-being, even when facing significant adversity.

Trauma, grief, and suffering can be alchemized into spiritual strength and used to help others and support personal evolution.

Sharing one's story and using one's voice is a crucial part of the healing process for survivors of trauma.
