The Dojo: Life Beyond the Edge

When It's Hardest, Love Harder with Dr. Galya


Listen Later

Today’s guest, Dr. Gayla Loewenstein, is a licensed acupuncturist with a Masters and Doctorate in Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine, BA in Psychology, AA in Performing Arts, and Reiki Master-Teacher certification. She is incredibly intrigued by the mental-emotional patterns which influence one’s overall health, and the effects of multi-generational trauma on epigenetics. In an effort to achieve a greater range of understanding, Dr. Galya has traveled through her own ancestral lands and various concentration camps in Eastern Europe, performing acupuncture on herself and singing prayer songs to clear Holocaust trauma from her body. In this episode, she tells us the story of her travels and the myriad of synchronicities that occurred along the way.


In this episode of The Dojo:

  • Entering the heart of the shadow: Why Dr. Gayla decided to visit the lands where her ancestors were murdered 
  • How frequently hearing “no” early in life impacted Dr. Gayla 
  • Why respect does not require understanding
  • Dr. Gayla’s synchronistic visit to Berlin, Germany and other sites of the Holocaust
  • Birthing Death: A full on energetic labor experience
