The Emotion Code

The connection between our emotional experiences, our beliefs, and our physical well-being.

You are a holistic physician, a USA Today bestselling author, the founder and CEO of Discovering Healing, and the creator of three healing systems known as the emotion code, the body code, and the belief code.

At the heart of your work is the idea that so many of us are carrying around unresolved emotional experiences from the past.

sometimes from childhood, that may continue to influence how we think, feel, and show up in our own relationships.

But here's honestly what I find most fascinating about your work is how this connects to fatherhood, how this connects to marriage and the patterns that we unknowingly pass on to our kids.

You've written several best-selling books, including The Emotion Code, The Body Code, and now you've teamed up with your wife, Jean, to write your newest book, which is called The Heart Code.

This explores emotional healing and the barriers that can keep us from experiencing deeper love and connection.

I know we're going to dive into some pretty fascinating territory today, especially when it comes to emotional baggage, the beliefs that we carry, and how our past experiences can shape us as men, husbands, and fathers.

What is this clearing that we're doing? Well, it's a combination of holographic kinetics, which is a process from the aboriginals, a clearing technique you could say from well down under, It is also a combination of Dr.

Bradley Nelson's Emotion Code.

And I love Dr. Bradley Nelson, his work so dearly.

Emotion Code, Body Cold, his latest book.

I recommend all of Dr. Bradley Nelson's work combined with shamanic soul retrieval work.

pulling back the pieces of your soul or the fragments of your heart that have been left with all your past wounds and trauma.

I'm your host, Dani, and today we're diving into a subject that challenges the way most of us have been taught to think about our bodies, our emotions, and even our subconscious minds.

Joining me today is Dr. Bradley Nelson, a retired holistic chiropractic physician, bestselling author, and the creator of The Emotion Code, The Body Code, and The Belief Code.

For decades, Dr. Nelson has explored the idea that emotional experiences don't simply disappear when the moment is over.

Instead, he believes emotional energy can be trapped within the body, potentially influencing everything from physical discomfort and emotional well-being to relationships, beliefs, and the way we experience the world around us.

Well, thank you, Danielle.

I'm really excited to be here.

I am very interested to know more about the emotional or the emotion code.

We'll get into the heart code as well.

And so I literally dove like straight headfirst into the deep end with it, and I just started doing appointments on myself.

I started practicing the emotion code and releasing trapped emotions every other day.

I, at the end of every appointment, you can say, "How much time do I need to finish processing, and when can I come back to this?" And to the day, I was like, "All right, it's Tuesday.

I can come back to this now.

They go per-- they go great together 'cause they work on different things.

But I decided I am really struggling with the idea of going back to the corporate world because now I want to work in a space where I actually am helping people live better lives, you know? And, and so it's like not that the corporate wor- the corporate work doesn't mean as much to me as it used to, and, and I was like, in order to help people, I want to practice this modality that I've been fallen in love with, that has done amazing things for me, um, that has done amazing things for other people that I've, you know, worked on it with before I got my certification.

So last year I got my certification in the Emotion Code, and then right away I got it in the Body Code, and it's just different sort of levels of the same modality.

The difference is the Emotion Code is focused on purely trapped emotional energy, and the Body Code is focused on a lot of different other kind of trapped energies that might not just be emotional.

... and that's where it's tricky 'cause you're like if talk therapy's not working, and if it's like they don't even know they're there, it's like what do you do? So I think it's, it's interesting.

There's like the book The Emotion Code-

Yeah

... which I know a lot of people-

... and things like that.

Um, but yeah, but I love Bradley Nelson's work.

I think The Emotion Code, it's free to do.

It's very, very simple.

So what you're talking about in terms of trauma makes a lot of sense to me, because you are actually causing your body to behave in a different way due to the trauma that you have.

And I remember I also read a book called Emotion Code by Bradley Nelson, and he s- showed very well that different emotions get trapped in the body.

And there was this one particular story that funnily dealt with a horse, and this horse would urinate incessantly all the time, and it had this trauma that it was-

Oh, I just love horses

I have a feeling this one's gonna be a, a transformational one and a powerful one.

Today, I get to interview someone who is a visionary author of a few best-selling books, one of them The Emotion Code.

He's touched the lives of, check this, over 500 million, that, that was 500 million people, through, uh, media appearances, TV, radio, podcasts, live interviews.

Uh, and I think his work is quite groundbreaking in terms of helping people, uh, release the emotional energy of trauma.

Oh.

All kinds of symptoms would go away.

And that's why, um, in two thou- in t- 2004, I left my practice, and in 2007 published this book, "The Emotion Code." And, um, this came out the same year and the same month as the, uh, original iPhone.

[laughs] Wow.
