Today I’m chatting with Dr. Keesha Ewers. Dr. Keesha Ewers is an integrative medicine expert, Doctor of Sexology, Family Practice ARNP, certified trauma informed therapist, a certified death doula, is board certified in functional medicine and Ayurvedic medicine and is the founder and medical director of the Academy for Integrative Medicine Health Coach Certification Program.

Dr. Keesha, the Mother of Functional Sexology, has been in the medical field for over 30 years. After conducting the HURT Study in 2013 (Healing Un-Resolved Trauma), she developed the HURT Model for understanding how past childhood trauma impacts adult health. This led to the creation of the You Unbroken online program for patients to heal their own trauma and the Mystic Medicine deep immersion healing retreats she leads at her home on San Juan Island, WA.

Dr. Keesha is a popular speaker, including at Harvard and from the TEDx stage, and the best-selling author of Solving the Autoimmune Puzzle: The Woman’s Guide to Reclaiming Emotional Freedom and Vibrant Health, The Quick and Easy Autoimmune Paleo Cookbook: Anti-Inflammatory Recipes with 7 Ingredients or Less for Busy People, and Your Libido Story: A workbook for women who want to find, fix, and free their sexual desire. You can listen to her Mystic Medicine Radio Show and find her programs at www.DrKeesha.com.

In this episode, Dr. Keesha discusses what to do when hormone replacement therapy doesn’t work, how she naturally overcame her Rheumatoid Arthritis, and how trauma can cause autoimmune disease. We discuss feeling guilty for past traumas, the different types of trauma, why talk therapy doesn’t work, and how to reframe trauma. Dr. Keesha shares tools for integration, explains the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, and much more.
