Episode Synopsis

In this episode of How Healing Really Works, Dr. Dan and Dr. Pete explore a powerful truth: your image of health is shaping your experience of it—whether you realize it or not.So why do so many people, even the well-educated or wealthy, carry poor health images? And what can we do to change that?Inside this episode:Why growing up poor may actually protect the health image, while wealth + fear often fuels dysfunction.How a 3-year-old child can form lifelong health patterns just by watching emotionally charged moments between parents.Why the medicalization of society—especially how we view pregnancy—is doing more harm than good.A raw conversation about the dark side of the medical model, Big Pharma (yes, even Johnson & Johnson), and whether Dr. Dan’s views are “too extreme.”What it really means to be more than a physical body—and how this understanding can instantly reduce fear.Can a healer promote a powerful image without ego? Or does it have to point back to self to be effective?“I bat 1000% with endometriosis,” Dr. Pete says. Dr. Dan challenges whether taking credit helps or hurts the patient.The healing story of a man with DISH who overcame illness by transforming his inner image.The myth of needing to travel to Tijuana or chase some guru—how to heal your image starting right where you are.And a thought-provoking Q&A: How do you help highly educated, affluent people create strong healing images—when their intellect resists it?Oh—and yes, we go there: Did Jonah really survive in a whale? And what does that mean for the metaphysical nature of healing?This episode is a deep dive into how belief, emotion, and inner identity shape the body—and how to begin rewiring the healing image for yourself and others.________________________________Disclaimer: The content provided in this podcast is for informational and educational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
