My friend and colleague joins us today! Laura Pearl is the friend who first introduced me to the idea of using mind-body healing for chronic pain. Today, she’s here sharing her story about arthritis, knee pain, using a cane, and emotional healing that led to physical healing. Laura’s also, of course, a trauma specialist and shares insights into trauma therapy …you’re not gonna want to miss this one.
