Rarely do we find the worlds of psychotherapy and the metaphysical enter the same dialogues. On today's episode, we welcomed Lisa Schaeffer to share how truly related these worlds of mental health, social work, and mind-body theory and practice intertwine from an evidence-based perspective. Lisa, Amanda & Kelsi delve into the understanding of the 7 Chakras of the body and how understanding these energy points can be used to heal our bodies from stress and even traumatic experiences.
This episode went SO WELL and there was so much more to share, we decided to welcome Lisa back for a monthly series on the chakras beginning in May 2021, so stay tuned for those! Be sure to like, comment & subscribe so you don't miss out on the latest episodes!
