Mind-Body Connection: Depression, Pain + IBS
Let's talk the mind-body connection. In our favorite episode yet, UK-based licensed Cognitive Behavioral Therapist Megan Prowse, who brings nearly a decade of experience working with mental health patients at the NHS, discusses how the mind and body are inextricably linked. She explains how we hold emotions in the body, and why awareness of the physical body is a vital skill to develop. Additionally, we'll delve into evidence of mindfulness as a game-changing therapy for depression and recurring pain, and explore mindfulness as a possible treatment for IBS and similar conditions. We'll kick things off with a discussion around barriers to the home practice of mindfulness and name some key resources for anyone wishing to deepen their mindfulness practice.MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE (Tap text to open links):SUPPORT: Help the MM Podcast Stay Alive!!!GUEST: Learn More About Megan ProwseDEPRESSION BOOK: The Mindful Way Through Depression, Jon Kabat-ZinnINSTAGRAM: Megan ProwseINSTAGRAM: Mindful ManifestationsMUSIC: Free 4 3 2 Music on YoutubeYOGA: Yoga With Adriene's 5-Minute Morning PracticeAPP: HeadspaceMUSIC CREDIT: Scott Holmes, Our Big AdventureDISCLAIMER: Information provided by Mindful Manifestations, its representatives, and its guests is meant for informational purposes only.
