German New Medicine: Exploring the Mind-Body Connection Behind Symptoms with Dr. Katherine Willow

What if our physical symptoms could be influenced not only by what’s happening in the body, but also by what we’ve experienced emotionally?

In this episode of Confidently Balance Your Hormones, Dee Davidson sits down with Dr. Katherine Willow, a fourth-generation naturopathic doctor with more than 40 years of experience, to explore German New Medicine and its perspective on the connection between emotional experiences, the brain, and physical symptoms.

Dr. Katherine shares what first drew her to German New Medicine, how it differs from other mind-body approaches, and how she has incorporated this framework into her naturopathic practice. We also explore how unresolved stress and emotional experiences may be viewed through the GNM lens when it comes to hormonal symptoms and other complex health concerns.

We talk about:

  •  What German New Medicine is and how Dr. Katherine discovered it 

  •  The mind-body connection from a GNM perspective 

  •  Emotional conflicts, triggers, and physical symptoms 

  •  How this framework may be applied to hormonal concerns 

  •  Examples from Dr. Katherine’s clinical experience 

  •  Using self-awareness and emotional exploration as part of a broader wellness journey 

  •  Where someone can begin if they’re curious about learning more 

This conversation offers a different perspective on the mind-body connection and invites you to become curious about the role our life experiences, stress, and emotions may play in how we feel.
