Interview: "The Grief Protocol" Author & Licensed Massage Therapist Karen Weitz
Have you read the beautiful book "The Grief Protocol: Solutions to Address Our Bodies' Hardwired Reaction to Grief"? If not, you should!
The lovely author, Karen E. Weitz, LMT, joined me on the podcast to speak about the "epiphany" that led her to tap into somatic practices to heal her own grief from multiple losses, and how addressing the physical nature of her own grief led to significant shifts in how she began to care for her massage clients.
Karen wrote her book to share specific practices and protocols that helped her heal from the physiological impacts of her own multiple losses, and to help educate others about the power of a somatic approach to grief work.
In this interview she shares from her personal story and spoke to the need for cultural shifts in our collective approach to grief, advocates for grieving as a natural part of being human, and speaks about the need for simple, accessible body-based tools to address the stress response that can accompany loss.
