Can Thoughts Make Us Sick—or Help Us Heal?

from The Holistic Psychiatrist · host Alice W. Lee, MD, ABIHM

There’s a moment in this conversation where something quietly shifts…Not because of a bold claim — but because of a different way of seeing.In this episode, I’m joined by Dr Elisa Medhus, a physician with over 30 years in internal medicine, who now works in the field of scalar energy healing. Alongside Emily, we explore how thoughts, intention, and energy may influence the body in ways we’re only just beginning to understand. This is not about replacing medicine.It’s about expanding the conversation.We talk about:What scalar energy is (in simple terms)How intention, visualisation, and emotion may influence healingThe connection between thoughts, self-perception, and physical outcomesWhy love, gratitude, and self-worth keep showing up in healing journeysAnd the idea that healing may involve more than just the physical bodyWhat stood out most wasn’t the technology…It was the reminder that how we think and feel about ourselves may matter more than we realize.If you’re open to exploring a different lens on healing, this is a conversation worth sitting with.Support the showTo sustain my work as a holistic psychiatrist and support my efforts to improve psychiatric treatment for all through my podcasts, articles, website, and YouTube channel, please show your appreciation and help champion holistic psychiatry by clicking HERE to contribute!Click here to listen to all of The Holistic Psychiatrist Podcast episodesContact here to email Dr. Lee directly.
