Why Connection Matters More Than Any Protocol in Healing?
🌿🌿 Week 10 Overview: Self-Concept, Belonging & the Power of Community | Intro to Holistic Medicine
💭 Have you ever felt like no one sees your full story—not just your symptoms, but your truth?
This week in Intro to Holistic Medicine, we shift from protocols and supplements to one of the most important elements of healing: connection. We’re talking belonging, nervous system regulation, self-concept, and how your relationships—especially the one with yourself—shape your entire healing experience.
Dr. Erica Steele shares her journey, breaks down the neuroscience of community, and helps you begin crafting a new identity rooted in wholeness and worthiness.
📚 What You’ll Learn:
✅ Why connection is non-negotiable for healing
✅ The biology of belonging and how it lowers cortisol + supports the nervous system
✅ What self-concept is—and how it shapes your actions, habits, and health outcomes
✅ How trauma disrupts relationships and how emotional safety rebuilds them
✅ The difference between 12-week containers and 4-week Wellness Collectives
✅ An introduction to our 3 free holistic communities
✅ How to start showing up as the version of yourself you’re becoming
