When we think about chronic disease, we don’t always consider the role of emotions. Yet emotional patterns can quietly drive chronic inflammation, which underlies many of today’s most common conditions. Today’s guest shares powerful stories from patients with unexpected diagnoses, revealing how core life habits and major life events often precede, and contribute to, the development of disease.
Today on The Dhru Purohit Show, Dhru sits down with Dr. Ronesh Sinha to explore the often-overlooked emotional factors behind chronic illness, even in people who appear to be doing everything “right” for their health. Dr. Sinha introduces the concept of surprise diseases, explains how emotional patterns shape physical outcomes, and unpacks ideas like “shamily” and emotional immunity. He also shares practical ways to build emotional awareness, why introspection matters, and how open, honest conversations within families can be a powerful tool for long-term health.
