182: It’s Not Your Hormones, It’s Your Minerals w/Morley Robbins
I was honoured to have Morley Robbins in the studio with me during his recent trip to the UK. Morley has been a mentor of mine for over 5 years now and what he’s taught me about the root cause of healing has had the most significant impact not only on my own health, but on how I’m able to guide others.
We took a deep dive into what it really means when mineral balance is off in the body, and why this is causing more illness than we realise.
We cover:
Why copper is the most important mineral you’ll ever put in your body and how lack of it is preventing your cells from healing
How mineral imbalance in the body affects hormones
How mineral imbalance can be a catalyst for cancer and autoimmune diseases
How everyone can get adequate mineral balance by following a simple protocol
How the Root Cause Protocol works
How discernment is the absolute most important piece in our healing journeys: what works for me might not work for you, we have to bring in intuition
The role energy plays in healing
You can read all about the Root Cause Protocol here
