In this powerful and soul-nourishing episode, Jacqueline Rose sits down with Vanessa Holliman—an integrative mind-body-spirit social worker and founder of BEing Wholistic. Together, they explore the profound impact of breathwork, rituals, and intention in the healing journey, especially for those recovering from trauma. Vanessa shares her holistic approach to therapy, weaving in elements of energy healing, astrology, body awareness, and feminine-masculine balance, all centered around the current energies of Beltane. Learn how mindful breathing, grounding rituals, and universal energy alignment can be powerful tools for emotional wellness and manifestation.
Healing trauma requires addressing the whole being: mind, body, and spirit.
Breath is a foundational tool for self-regulation and emotional resilience.
Anticipatory breathing leads to shallow, disconnected patterns—awareness can shift this.
Daily intentional rituals elevate energy and emotional clarity.
Manifestation is about aligning actions with desires—not just wishing.
Cognitive dissonance arises when mind and body are misaligned—rituals can bridge the gap.
Beltane honors the union of masculine and feminine energies—grounding, fertility, and creativity.
Astrology and energetic practices offer deeper insight into self-care and transformation.
