 📺 Watch on YouTube and Spotify“Even things that are quote, unquote, healthy for us can become addictions and turn into damaging behaviors,” says Justin Price, structural health expert and holistic coach, reflecting on decades spent tracking pain, performance, and the seamless dance between body and mind. In today’s episode of Mental Health in a Modern World, Justin Price joins Greg to illuminate how movement, self-mastery, and the archetypal forces driving our choices shape personal evolution far beyond the gym floor.Justin Price reveals how his own early reliance on exercise and other “healthy” coping mechanisms hid deeper emotional wounds—and what it took to break free from societal and internal patterns of self-negotiation. He discusses the power of the “detective” archetype in healing chronic pain, shares why true spiritual growth demands direct inner experience, and unpacks how the same drive that catalyzes athletic excellence can, when unexamined, limit our lives and relationships.Tune in to Mental Health in a Modern World to discover why movement may be the body’s safest entry point to healing trauma, how your greatest strengths can become blind spots, and what it takes to authentically transmute pain and addiction into purpose.5 Key TakeawaysUnlock deeper self-awareness and healing by integrating archetype work, self-tracking, and intentional practices into your journey.Use movement or somatic practices as accessible entry points for emotional and spiritual self-discovery (04:08).Track your own physiological, mental, and emotional states to deepen self-understanding and enhance your ability to help others (32:22; 34:06).Examine and consciously renegotiate addictive patterns—especially those disguised as “healthy” habits—to support true holistic wellbeing (13:02).Practice honoring intuition over inner negotiation, especially when fear or the drive for safety tempts you to betray your deeper knowing (52:08).Cultivate direct experience and introspection as the foundation of spiritual growth, then return to share your embodied wisdom with others (40:53; 47:08).Start today: Pick one takeaway and commit to one small action that honors your integrated wellbeing.Memorable Quotes"I found that people had a lot of emotional and spiritual challenges they were uncomfortable directly addressing, but as things came up somatically in a safe environment, it was easier to access it from that entry point. Movement is so much more accessible because it feels a little less personal, even though that’s mostly an awareness or access thing.""It was really interesting because I was so attached to that strategy as a way to feel good about myself that even though those other things were negative, I was unwilling to see how it was connected for a very long time. Not until many injuries and personal relationship challenges and burnout several times did I begin to reframe my relationship with it in a way that was supportive and sustainable.""Anything that wanted to put an intermediary between me and the divine immediately didn’t feel right in my system. I enjoy solo practice and deep experiences—knowing from the inside out and then feeling really clear and grounded in that truth."Connect with JustinWebsite - https://www.myointegrity.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/myointegrityResources MentionedSacred Contracts by Caroline Myss - https://amzn.to/48N9FDgConnect with GregWebsite - https://www.healing4d.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/4d_healing/YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@gregschmausLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-schmaus-22929589/🎙️🎙️🎙️Podcast Production & Marketing by FullCast: https://fullcast.coDiscover the best podcast services in the world at The Podosphere: https://www.thepodosphere.com/
