Healing isn’t always gentle, glowing, or graceful — sometimes, it’s messy, emotional, and uncomfortable. But that’s where the real transformation begins.

In this special Halloween week episode of Glowfully by Aléora, we’re exploring the shadow side of healing — the parts of ourselves we tend to hide, repress, or fear, and how embracing them leads to deeper peace, balance, and authenticity.

You’ll learn how emotional suppression keeps you stuck, how the body stores unprocessed emotions, and how to gently turn pain into power. This episode blends psychology, nervous system wisdom, and holistic healing — helping you make peace with your shadow so your light can shine even brighter.

Listen in for:
The truth about shadow work and why it’s essential to real growth
How to safely release stored emotions through the body
Ways to transmute pain into wisdom
Journaling prompts to reconnect with your inner world
How to balance light and shadow in everyday life

In this week’s episode of Glowfully by Aléora, we’re redefining productivity — the feminine way.

Modern hustle culture was built around a man’s 24-hour rhythm — but women’s bodies run on a 28-day cycle that affects everything from energy to focus to hormones. When we ignore that, burnout follows fast.

This episode is your guide to working with your body, not against it — understanding how your hormones shape your energy, why rest is part of productivity, and how to build daily habits that support balance, confidence, and glow. ✨

Evening Routines That Heal, Not Harm (00:00) → Why evenings are the bridge between stress and restoration, and how simple choices with light, stimulation, food, skincare, and boundaries can transform your nights into true healing time.

Self-Sabotage: Journaling Prompts to Break the Cycle (11:53) → What self-sabotage really is (hint: often self-protection, not laziness), plus journaling prompts and shadow work practices to understand your patterns and gently create change.

Whether you listen all the way through or skip to the part you need most, this episode is designed to give you practical tools and gentle reminders that healing doesn’t have to be hard — it can be slow, intentional, and deeply supportive.
