🔥 Steph’s personal journey from addiction to aligned and thriving breathwork facilitator
🔥 how profound and transformational breathwork can be
🔥 how to integrate our breathwork experiences, staying in presence and not going outside of our window of tolerance

January 17, 2022 16. What is Somatic practice?
This is a great episode with my guest Karden Rabin who is a somatic therapist and body worker. We get into some really interesting content… I actually got really vulnerable on this episode about some aspects of my own healing journey, and how somatic practices have helped me be more resourced to handle it better.
We also get into what somatic practice means, how to start feeling more joy, how to balance nervous system dysregulation and so much more.

January 17, 2022 15. What if your journey doesn’t end up anywhere near your intentions?
On this episode I welcome my partner Ayahuasca Kuar back for a 2nd time and we have a great discussion about integration and what happens when we set strong intentions, but the medicine wants to take us in another direction. What do we do with that? How do we integrate it? And how do we keep an open mindset of a student, someone that's curious and coming to the experience for guidance for transformation, and for change and healing.

December 13, 2021 10. How do you begin to develop somatic awareness?
Somatic Experiencing therapist Amy Doublet (@wellnessalchemist) joins me on this episode. I think you’ll find a lot of value in this conversation about how to begin cultivating somatic awareness.
Amy and I recorded this episode live on IG and the live stream dropped out in the middle of the conversation. I edited out most of the awkward space getting the live back up, but we also used the synchronicity to relate back to the somatic experience.
