For many of us, the body doesn’t always feel like a safe place to live. We push through tension, numb out pain, and try to think our way out of emotions we don’t want to feel. But what if the key to healing isn’t found in the mind, it’s in the body itself?

Sienna Richardson, somatic therapist and educator, helps us understand what it truly means to come home to the body. She shares how trauma, stress, and unprocessed emotion can stay stored in the nervous system, quietly shaping how we feel, think, and connect with others.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your emotions, anxious for no clear reason, or overwhelmed by life’s demands, this episode will help you reconnect to the wisdom that’s already within you.
