10 Quotes by Jeffrey Rediger

Recent research is showing that we actually have three “brains” — the head brain, heart brain, and gut brain — and our health and development depend on keeping them in balance and alignment.... Some signals begin in the gut, or the heart, and flow upstream to the head brain, while others cascade from above. In this way, our thoughts and emotions have both instant and long-lasting effects on all our biological systems: nervous, endocrine, immune.

The four pillars of health: healing your immune system, healing your nutrition, healing your stress response, and healing your identity.

It’s the perception that creates the thought that creates the feeling.

Illness begins in the soul, and when a healing occurs there, the physical body then “catches up” to this new reality.

We must create a biological environment in the body and mind that sets the stage for healing.

We need to place the extraordinary on the operating table so that we can dissect and learn from it, so that the possibilities for the extraordinary that exist within all of us are illuminated for everyone.

The link between our minds and bodies holds a well of potential when it came to radical healing — even mainstream medicine accepts that our stress levels and thought patterns, for example, can impact our physical health.
