TGNG Podcast 044 - The Gifts of Healing from Breast Cancer with Kathryn Elliott
The mind-body connection is so profound. Paying attention to our internal, mental and spiritual wellbeing can improve our physical health immeasurably. A very warm welcome everyone, to this episode of The Good News Guide Podcast. A loving collection of audio conversations, stories, ideas, practices and tools from the greatest teachers, speakers, thought leaders, healers and humans on the planet. In this episode, Lisa has an eye-opening conversation with Kath Elliot about the gift (yes ‘gift’) of her breast cancer diagnosis and how it enabled her to start living a truly connected life, filled with joy and purpose. We often ignore the signs that our body is sending us, about our wellbeing. Whether it’s because of our commitments to work or our kids, we can easily tune out our aches and pains, until it has no choice but to ‘shout’! This is what Kath experienced with years of ignoring her body, soldiering on through life until she was diagnosed. Now she lives authentically as herself, spreading her message of self-love and speaking profound truth to the world. She has found that, just by doing this from a place of authenticity; she has been able to improve the lives of countless others, just like her!
