Episode Synopsis

In this episode of The Mind Change Podcast, Heather McKean delves into the emotional underpinnings of high blood pressure, a preventable yet fatal condition claiming millions of lives annually. Unveiling the suppression of emotions, notably anger stemming from childhood compliance, McKean highlights how this suppression breeds isolation, distrust, and a dire need for control. She explores how childhood environments emphasizing achievement contribute to heightened stress sensitivity in adults, impacting emotional expression and sleep patterns. While medication is common, the episode stresses the need to address underlying emotional causes for true reversal, offering hope by advocating an internal shift in thoughts and reactions. This episode uncovers the intricate relationship between suppressed emotions, past experiences, and high blood pressure, offering pathways toward potential reversal through emotional resolution.   Ready to empower your community and guide them toward transformation? 🌟 Explore our Book Club Facilitator Guides now to lead engaging small group discussions that align with the chapters in the book. 📚 Take your circle of influence on a 15-week journey towards deeper engagement, meaningful interaction, and profound personal growth. 💪 Grab your Digital Download (PDF) today and start building a community of growth-seekers! 🚀https://www.mindchange.com/bookclub   📝  Full show notes and resources at mindchange.com/podcast 📚 Get Heather’s book - “Mind Change: Changing The World One Mind At A Time” -  HERESupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-mind-change-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
