    131. Letting Go to Gain Control with Kyle Davies

    We are joined by Kyle Davies for an insightful conversation about "letting go" and ways to promote health and well-being through a holistic approach. Kyle shares his journey and insights on shifting from a cognitive to a body-centered approach, emphasizing the importance of internal control and the need to surrender excessive control for a more natural and effortless flow of life. We also discussed the challenges people face when dealing with health issues, the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, and the importance of acknowledging and accepting emotions without trying to control them.   Kyle's approach is to walk a path with his clients, maybe staying just one step ahead, applying the principles and practices together, on an experiential and ultimately transformational journey. He helps clients understand how their minds work. This goes beyond simple tools and techniques.   Connect with Kyle Davies: https://energyflowcoaching.com/   Additional Resources: 🤔 QUIZ: What Type of Anxiety Do You Deal With? 👉 Discover your Ayurveda mind-body constitution so you can work to balance it and optimize your health with this dosha quiz 💡Join Dr. Nicole's membership: The Holistic Wellness Collective 👉Learn more about Hadlee’s Happy Healthy Habits Coaching Program, a step-by-step program you've been searching for to actually follow through on your health and wellness goals 👉 Order Supplements Here  📖 Buy the book: PANIC PROOF: The New Holistic Solution to End Your Anxiety Forever   💻 Check out the available online courses: Ayurveda: The Key to Your Success Mapping Out Your Benzo Taper   💕 Stay connected with us: Dr. Nicole on Instagram Happy Healthy Hadlee on Instagram   Dr. Nicole Cain, ND MA is a pioneer in integrative approaches for mental and emotional wellness.
