Regardless of your health struggles, you can lean into self-love to become your best healer

Chapter 29: The Life Manual for Healing in your 20s Whether it’s dealing with chronic UTI’s or a parent with cancer, so many of us experience chronic illness at some point in our 20s. It could be your own medical journey or having to help a loved one through theirs–regardless, it’s not easy to navigate. But what if I told you that shifting your mindset and practicing self-love can actually aid your physical wellness?  Today, we are speaking with Dana Croschere and Krisanna Sexton, the masterminds behind the film “Love Heals.” After supporting one another through chronic illness within their relationship, they are now on a mission to spread love, health, and healing. Dana and Krisanna took 18 people to a retreat center in Sedona, AZ to work on healing in nontraditional ways, and they have used the film to share with the world their stories and the power of using the mind-body connection to heal yourself.  THIS EPISODE’S SYLLABUS STEPS:  Here are some of Dana and Krisanna's tips on healing yourself through self-love: - Check in with yourself. Ask yourself, what do I need? - Find time to be quiet with yourself and engage in some kind of meditation daily. - Start to trust your intuition. - Obtain “heart-brain coherence” by connecting your brain and your heart. Practice breathing while putting your hand on your heart and bringing up whatever emotions you're feeling. Take breaths envisioning positive emotions moving in and out of your heart space to calm your nervous system.  - Take intentional time away from your phone and connect with nature. - Know that you are your own best healer and everything else is just mirroring back what you already know deep down.  To see their film “Love Heals,” visit their website here.
