Sounds True: Producer's Pick show

Summary: Mario Martinez is the founder of Biocognitive Theory, which synthesizes insights from medicine, psychology, and spirituality to address questions about physical and psychological wellness. Sounds True producer Mitchell Clute, who recorded Mario’s audio course The Mind-Body Code, says, “I particularly love his approach to relationships, which is grounded in science and informed by the insights of spiritual practice.” In this excerpt, Mario speaks to how our relational wounds—such as shame or abandonment—can be healed by their antidotes. “Mario’s advice is simple but never simplistic,” says Mitchell. “The approach he outlines requires a lot from the listener but offers deep, authentic change in return for our efforts.”
