In this week's episode of The Daring Well Podcast, Rita Mercer welcomes Dr. Julius Torelli, a cardiologist and holistic wellness advocate, to explore the power of gratitude, mindset, and a holistic lifestyle in shaping our health.

Dr. Torelli shares his journey from traditional medicine into developing the Gratefully Well Model, which blends the best of Western medicine with holistic practices. He explains how emotional overwhelm, stress, and limiting beliefs often show up as physical symptoms—and why addressing the whole person is essential for true healing.

Listeners will discover:

  • The pivotal patient story that inspired Dr. Torelli to rethink medicine.
  • How thoughts and beliefs directly impact the body’s physiology.
  • The science-backed benefits of gratitude for mental and physical health.
  • The Traceback Method of Gratitude, a practical tool for shifting stress into calm and appreciation.


Benefits of developing the Gratefully Well model as part of a healthy lifestyle includes:

  • Improve recovery from illness and medical procedures
  • Reduce symptoms of high blood pressure, pain, and illness
  • Strengthen immune function
  • Enhance sleep quality
  • Increase resilience and stress coping skills
  • Lower anxiety and depression

Whether you’re struggling with stress, managing chronic illness, or seeking more balance in life, this conversation will inspire you to live gratefully well every day.
