It’s been 18 years since Dr. Bradley Nelson first published the groundbreaking book The Emotion Code: How to Release Your Trapped Emotions for Abundant Health, Love, and Happiness. The bestselling book was a huge step towards sharing these energy healing methods with the world! Since then, Discover Healing has been hard at work, sharing this life-changing message across the globe! 

As you can imagine, so much has changed in the years since Discover Healing began. We’ve grown as a company, shared our mission in almost every country, achieved incredible milestones, and greatly expanded our community of beloved friends and healing family. Truly, this work is all because of YOU. Let’s celebrate the years together and look back on the history of Discover Healing!
