How to Digest Trauma to Heal with Dr. Keesha Ewers

Описание: My guest today is Dr. Keesha Ewers, a board-certified Functional and Ayurvedic medicine expert, Doctor of Sexology, trauma-informed psychotherapist, conscious dying doula, MAPS certified MDMA-assisted psychotherapy therapist, and founder of the Academy for Integrative Medicine Health Coach Certification Program.

With over 30 years in medicine, she developed the HURT Model to understand how childhood trauma impacts adult health, leading to her Freedom Framework for reversing autoimmune disease.

Dr. Keesha is a best-selling author of several books, including Solving the Autoimmune Puzzle: The Woman’s Guide to Reclaiming Emotional Freedom and Vibrant Health. She also co-hosts Liberating Generations with her daughter, a podcast on breaking free from intergenerational trauma.

I’ve had the pleasure of being part of Dr. Keesha’s Reverse Autoimmune Disease Summit and deeply appreciate our generative and expansive conversations. Today, we’re diving into the well-established connection between childhood trauma and autoimmunity—and the profound potential for healing.


Quote: “You weren’t robbed of a life you were supposed to have, you’re living the life that you’re supposed to live.”
