Workaholism, Oppression and Cytokines

Interview with Dr. David Clawson. David is a physiatrist and practices physical medicine and rehabilitation at the Swedisch Medical Center in Seattle, Washington. He is taking care of people with strokes, spinal and brain injuries and ALS. He also does musculoskeletal medicine specializing in neck and back pain, peripheral joint injuries and complex spine injuries. In this fascinating interview, we are diving deep into the impact of stress on the biochemical processes in your body.

In this podcast episode you will learn:
✨How stress is affecting our mental and physical health
✨What are cytokines and why you should know about them
✨The connection between cytokines, stress levels and oppression
✨Why are people "addicted" to work, and so successful in their careers while having a poor lifestyle?
✨The connection between thoughts, feelings and stress
✨What you can do to increase your healthy cytokines and build a strong immune system

Enjoy listening.

With gratitude,
Julia
