Have you ever thought you'd dealt with something from your past, only to discover there were deeper layers you hadn't touched? What if the wounds you think you've healed are still affecting you energetically?
In this fascinating conversation, host Sarah Gorev speaks with Dr Jane Lewis about Huna - an ancient Hawaiian practice that nearly disappeared from history but holds profound wisdom about healing, forgiveness, and energy work.
Jane shares her compelling personal journey from clinical depression and corporate life to discovering a practice that revealed what she thought she'd processed... hadn't been dealt with at all. Not on the deepest level.
You'll discover:
• What Huna actually is (hint: it's so much more than one practice)
• Why these spiritual practices were banned and illegal until the 1970s
• How childhood trauma can be "dealt with" mentally but still hold you back energetically
• Why Jane travels to Hawaii twice a year to continue learning this work
• An introduction to ho'oponopono - Hawaiian forgiveness
Jane explains how Huna encompasses energy healing, guided meditation for emotional release, and techniques for resolving both external conflicts and internal dilemmas. She shares extraordinary stories - from faith healing a compound fracture in days to discovering prenatal addiction through craniosacral therapy - that challenge our logical understanding of what's possible.
This episode is perfect for anyone who:
• Feels like they've "done the work" but something still isn't shifting
• Is curious about energy work beyond the mainstream
• Wants to understand how ancient practices are being validated by modern science
• Is open to exploring forgiveness in a completely different way
What makes this conversation special is Jane's background - she's a self-described "left brain person" who initially resisted everything energetic, even while experiencing it firsthand. Her journey from corporate consultant saying "I don't believe in energy" to teaching Hawaiian spiritual practices offers a relatable bridge for the curious skeptic.
Whether you're already exploring alternative wellness or completely new to these concepts, this honest discussion offers genuine insights into a practice that has quietly supported wellbeing for centuries - and is now being shared more widely after nearly being lost forever.
Perfect for: Anyone interested in energy healing, ancient wisdom, Hawaiian spiritual practices, forgiveness work, trauma release, complementary therapies, or wondering why past experiences still affect them.
