What if anxiety, burnout, and chronic stress aren’t isolated problems—but interconnected signals pointing toward something deeper?
In this conversation, Fleet sits down with naturopathic doctor and psychotherapist Dr. Ameet Aggarwal to explore his holistic approach to understanding the relationship between our physical health, nervous system, emotions, and unresolved trauma. Drawing from his own childhood experiences and years of working with patients, Ameet explains why he believes lasting healing requires looking beyond symptoms to understand what may be happening throughout the entire mind-body system.
Together, they explore what Ameet calls the five pillars of health: the gut, liver, adrenal system, childhood and emotional trauma, and ancestral or family-system trauma. Ameet explains the connections he sees between chronic stress, digestive health, inflammation, burnout, and emotional wellbeing—and why he combines naturopathic medicine with psychotherapy rather than treating the mind and body separately.
The conversation also dives into family constellations therapy and the possibility that some of the emotional patterns we carry may be connected to unresolved experiences within our family systems. Ameet shares his perspective on homeopathy, emotional healing, and the body-mind connection before guiding Fleet through two practical exercises: alternate nostril breathing and a powerful “permission to feel” practice designed to help us stop fighting difficult emotions and create greater choice within the nervous system.
