Episode 125: Dr Dave Tuck

Grief doesn’t just live in the mind, it can imprint on the body, shape our nervous system state, and quietly influence how we move through life, relationships, and even healing. In this episode of Bioenergetics Beat, host Heather Gray sits down with Dr. Dave Tuck (chiropractor and mind-body integration practitioner) for a powerful conversation on how grief is stored in the body, why it shows up differently for everyone, and how gratitude can become a practical pathway through loss.

Dr. Dave shares his personal story of losing his wife unexpectedly, how that experience deepened his work, and the simple (but profound) questions he uses to help clients shift from feeling stuck in grief to feeling grounded, expanded, and supported again.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

Why grief affects the body differently for each person

While some traditions associate grief with specific organs (like the lungs), Dr. Dave explains that grief can show up anywhere, because it depends on the meaning you attach to the loss and how your nervous system and physiology interpret that experience.

The mind-body connection behind emotional “storage”

Dr. Dave describes emotions as signals of an imbalanced perception, when we only see one side of an experience (all pain, no benefit; all loss, no growth), the body may hold that stress pattern as tension, symptoms, or dysregulation.

A reframe: “Nothing is lost - energy transforms”

One of the central themes of this episode is the idea that what we call “loss” can also be seen as a change in form. When we get attached to the “old form” (the way something used to be), we may miss the “new form” (how support, love, meaning, or connection is showing up now).

How gratitude and grief are linked

Dr. Dave connects grief to perceiving “more loss than gain.” Gratitude, in his framework, becomes possible when we can identify: the new forms of what we think we lost, the benefits of what’s here now and even the drawbacks of what we idealize from the past

Why we get stuck in grief loops

Heather and Dr. Dave explore why it can be so hard to stay grounded in gratitude, especially when old belief systems teach us life should look a certain way. Dr. Dave encourages listeners to “forget the script” and reconnect to personal values, authentic identity, and vision.
