In this episode of the Medical Trauma Support Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Kim Humphrey, an Austin based speech therapist, yoga teacher, sound healer and all around magic person, about her personal journey through medical trauma and how it led her to healing practices that she now shares with others. Kim shares her medical trauma experiences and the emotional toll of her medical journey, and we talked about the importance of finding words to describe medical trauma. We explored the role of yoga in healing, how yoga nidra helps with finding peace, and the connection between emotions and somatic experiences. Kim and I talked a lot about the importance of connecting with one's body to uncover deep-seated beliefs and emotions and the wisdom that the body holds. We explored Kim's transition from personal healing to teaching others, and the significance of lived experience in guiding others through their struggles. She shared a lot of resources during the episode, you can find links to those resources here:
