In this episode, we dive into the concept of the survival instinct and its role in shaping personality, behavior, and health across generations. We explore how the stresses and unexpressed aspects of our parents’ lives are passed on as survival mechanisms, creating gifts and challenges for each new generation. By examining how suppression, life themes, and personality patterns influence health, we highlight how homeopathy can help balance these innate tendencies and restore harmony. Through engaging examples, we emphasize the importance of understanding the energetic blueprint of the survival instinct and how recognizing and expressing our natural gifts can lead to greater fulfillment and well-being.
