The Doctor's Farmacy With Mark Hyman, M.d.

If you’ve ever said, “I know my patterns — so why can’t I change them?” the answer may not be in your mind, but in your body. On this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Dr. Nicole LePera, The Holistic Psychologist, to explore how early experiences become your body’s default state—shaping your stress response, your relationships, and your risk for chronic disease. Watch the full conversation on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts. In this conversation, you’ll learn: • How to recognize when your body is stuck in stress — even if your mind says you’re “fine” • Why people-pleasing, overworking, or shutting down can become your default response • What simple daily practices can calm your nervous system and support long-term health • How creating safety in your body improves sleep, energy, and stress recovery When you create safety in your body, you don’t just change your mood. You change your biology, your relationships, and your capacity to heal. Resources mentioned in this episo
