22: Coming Home to Your True Self with Somatic Healing Work


Listen Later

Are you feeling disconnected with your body and constantly pushing yourself to do more? In this episode, I talk with Dr. Danica Harris about coming home to yourself and: 

• Carving out space and time to reconnect with your true self as an HSP

• Finding ways to resource and care for your sensitive nervous system

• The importance of somatic work for healing chronic overwhelm and trauma

• Listening to your body’s basic needs as the first step to healing 

• Leaning into what’s available and making small changes to resource yourself 

• Slowing down to focus on what’s important and essential for your healing   

Danica is a trained Psychologist turned Somatic Coach who co-owns a group therapy practice in Dallas, TX. Danica is a highly sensitive person and specializes in working with HSPs with a complex trauma history. Danica loves sharing free trauma-informed resources on her popular Instagram page @theempoweredtherapist and she has turned this resource into a company that supports folx who want to dive deeper into their healing work through courses, retreats, virtual somatic groups, and trainings for therapists.
