Why Your Body Isn't Healing—And What Your Brain Might Have to Do With It

In this episode, I sit down with Ashok Gupta to explore why so many people with chronic illness are told they're "fine" when they clearly aren't. We break down how the nervous system and immune system can get stuck in survival mode, driving symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, and reactivity. We also talk about neuroplasticity and how retraining the brain may be the missing piece in healing.- - - - -About the Guest:Ashok Gupta is an internationally renowned Speaker, Filmmaker & Health Practitioner who has dedicated his life to supporting people through chronic illness, and achieving their potential. Ashok suffered from ME, or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, around 25 years ago when he was studying at Cambridge University.Through neurological research that he conducted, he managed to get himself 100% better.
