Empowered Expression

Ya girl has been going throughhhhh it lately fam! It's been a tough, transitional season for me, full of twists and turns, highs and lows.

Rather than painting a pretty facade for you all, I'm getting real about being in the "Mucky Middle" - it's crunchy but I know how important it is for me to keep it real with y'all.

It is my intention that this episode might show to you, that no matter how much you know, none of us are immune to letting your stress take the drivers seat but when we can name it and claim it, things can get better with time.

Wow, wow, wow... As of the release date of this podcast episode, tomorrow marks 2 YEARS STRAIGHT (730 days) of John (my partner) and I (your host, Sophie) completing our daily routine (which I refer to as our Daily Devotion).

In this episode, I go back to the start of 2020 to share where I was before having a daily practice, how I started, how it progressed and how John and I came to this point now, where we now have no intention to stop our Daily Devotion.

Be sure to stay tuned until the end of the episode where I ask you, the listeners, an important question to help you:

-get to know yourself
-understand yourself
-validate your experience
-and maybe, just maybe find some like or love for yourself

Let's get better, together.

We are who we are... but we can't deny that who we is affected by where we came from.

In this episode, I, your host Sophie, talk you through the difference between your Conditioned Self (also referred to as The Ego, The Not Self, The Social Self and I’m sure many more) verses your True Self (you know, who you reallyyy are), and how they all come to be.

In this episode, I share a guided somatic-sounding process where we use the power of our vocal cords to activate the Vagus Nerve, helping to stabilise and regulate your nervous system, leading to a sense of peace and “let go”.

This process is suitable to do with eyes open, either seated, standing, kneeling, laying down or even driving the car (so long as it's safe for you to do so).

Whether you’re feeling heightened and stressed or feeling numb and disassociated, this practice will help you find a sense of inner calm and harmony.

Sending you love on your journey.

More soon!

In this episode, I share a guided meditation where we will aim to move from the external noise of deadlines, expectations and responsibilities, as well as the voices inside our own heads that focus on our “to do’s”, “should’s” and “could’s”, so we can instead, connect with our Self with a capital S, also known as our Highest Self.

This process is suitable to do seated, kneeling or laying down with eyes closed and your full attention on your inner experience.

Like any healthy relationship, the relationship you have with yourself needs connection to hold it together. May this process allow you to connect deeper with your Self with a capital S so you can live your life in alignment to your highest, most loving good.

In this episode, I share a simple, self-paced breathwork process where I encourage you to slow down to the rate of presence. What that means is that we use this time to, as much as possible, not think of the past, nor the future and instead, to be here in the now.

This process is suitable to do seated, standing, laying down, going for a walk or even driving the car (so long as it's safe for you to do so).

Enjoy, and bask in the presence that life has to offer you.

The word "healing" gets a bad wrap, I'm well aware of that.

In this episode, I provide greater context into what healing means to me, as well as 4 frameworks that I use for myself and my clients in order to promote a Holistic approach to "getting better".

At the end of this podcast, I provide a Guided Journal Experience for you to explore these areas on your own in order to encourage more harmony in your life.

One of the most common questions I get asked is, "what IS Somatic Work?" and for a long time, I really struggled to answer that question in a way that was easy for others to understand.

In this episode, I, your host Sophie, answer this question both in simple terms and at depths so you may better understand what this work can do for you and/or those you love.

In this episode, I, your host Sophie, share my own personal journey to the work that feels most at-home to me: Somatic Work.

Being introduced to this work has completely changed my life around by allowing to me to step into a more authentic, empowered expression of myself... leading me to guide women who are ready to say goodbye to who they have "had" to be in the world to survive and instead, become their most authentic, empowered expression of them.

After a 18 month podcast-hiatus, I, your host Sophie, provide a little insight into where I've been during that time, the challenges I've faced and the learnings they have brought forward to me.

It is my intention that this episode might show to you, the listener, that we all face challenges in life and that when we allow ourselves to truly go through them, we can come out the other side better off than we were before.
