Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis over two decades ago, Christine shares how moving beyond diets, routines, and rigid wellness protocols led her to discover a more compassionate, body-led path to healing. This episode is a radical reframe of chronic illness, trauma, and self-trust—and an invitation to soften, slow down, and truly listen.
About the Guest: Christine Ruch is a nervous system-focused healing practitioner, writer, and guide who transformed her journey with MS into a path of embodied leadership. Formerly the founder of a successful whole-food restaurant, Christine now supports others in healing from within through somatic embodiment, trauma integration, and nervous system restoration. Her work emphasizes the body’s innate intelligence and capacity to self-heal when we shift from control to co-creation.
Key Takeaways:
Healing isn’t about control; it’s about cooperation with the nervous system
External protocols often bypass the body’s true wisdom
Nervous system healing requires softness, not striving
Chronic illness can be a sacred calling, not a curse
Emotions must be felt through the body—not just analyzed by the mind
