8. The Role of Somatic Healing: Filipa emphasizes the importance of addressing blocked energy and trauma stored in the body through techniques like somatic release and mindfulness practices.
9. Balancing Physical and Emotional Healing: While supplements and functional medicine address physical symptoms, long-term recovery requires tackling emotional and mental patterns simultaneously.
