#451: The Body Knows: Reclaiming Health Through Natural Living with Samphire Hayes


Listen Later

Once bedbound with chronic pain and told she'd be disabled for life, Samphire Hayes transformed her health not through surgery, but by embracing natural, ancestral practices—like ground sitting, mindfulness, and movement. In this powerful conversation with Mark Groves, she shares how reconnecting with her body and nature helped her go from mobility aids to walking marathons. Now a psychotherapist and natural lifestyle coach, Samphire helps others break free from chronic pain by tuning into the body’s wisdom and healing from the inside out. Her story is a moving reminder that we’re not broken—we just need to listen.

Samphire Hayes is a psychotherapist and natural lifestyle coach who overcame over a decade of chronic pain and limited mobility—at times requiring a mobility scooter—to now go on to complete marathons and live an active, vibrant life. Her personal healing journey sparked a deep commitment to holistic health, emphasizing the importance of addressing root causes rather than symptoms, and recognizing the body as an interconnected system. Through practices such as natural movement, ground sitting, mindfulness, nature immersion, and whole-food nutrition, Sam reconnected with the wisdom of human biology and the healing power of nature. Today, she leads The Holistic Pain Clinic, where she supports clients with chronic pain using integrative, nature-based strategies that empower physical, mental, and emotional recovery, with a mission to inspire resilience, hope, and lasting well-being.
