Shame - Guilt expert Lois Hollis was born in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1943 and for thirty years, Lois taught hospital staff and nurses how to care for hemodialysis patients both in hospital and home.

Despite her many accomplishments, her abusive childhood traumas began to outweigh her vivacious lifestyle. She succumbed to guilt-ridden depression, heart and liver disease, 30 years of migraine headaches, and structural deformities. Her physicians told her that she could not live past 50 years. After ten years of unsuccessful therapies with traditional medical and psychological professions, she turned to holistic health.

Lois soon discovered that her emotional and physical health intricately weave themselves to produce health or disease. She could not remember her childhood, but soon, she was shocked to learn that her abusive childhood left many scars. She was diagnosed with brain traumas, fractured jaw, broken neck, and congenital heart disease. Since brain traumas cause an increased sensitivity to sunlight, she understood why there was a time she was unable to be in the daylight.

Lois soon learned from her emotions that shame/guilt distorts our biological systems and creates emotional and physical illnesses. Applying the release of shame-guilt from her life, she no longer had lingering depression. She now recognized that shame-guilt were the main offenders of health and wellbeing and that we can stop our struggle with the negativity of low self-esteem, anger, anxiety, and so on, when we address shame-guilt directly. 

Today is an exciting time. Everything is questioned, and new concepts are typical. Now is the time to expose shame-guilt and how changing our shame-guilt system can solve our mental health crisis.
