Holistic HealersSystemic Issues in HealthcareOur healthcare system is littered with systemic issues that are often (intentionally) not talked about. So, let's start a conversation about it! Today, I have Abby Brockman on the podcast who is a Jewish board-certified clinical trauma chaplain. She received her Masters of Divinity from Boston University's School of Theology, completed her clinical residency at the Seattle VA hospital, and worked as a staff chaplain for many years at Seattle Children's Hospital in their Cancer Care Unit, Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, and In-patient Psychiatric Unit. She specializes in trauma, grief and loss, and end-of-life work and recently started her...2023-11-121h 11Holistic HealersHOLISTIC TIPS: A Beginner's Guide to TarotJust like all interventions we can use to better our health, we all have our preferences. Some we like and some we don't and that is different for everyone. For me and my clients, tarot can be another great avenue to uncover stuckness and get guidance. Today, I go over the basics of tarot readings, cards, and what you need to know to get started! And, at the end, I pull a message for you! Did you connect with it? Let's get into it!

It is about prioritizing someone's background, culture, mental health, physical health, and so on equally with unconditional positive regard. However, holistics needs to be expanded further- specifically to past or current offenders apart of the criminal justice system who are often written off as bad people who could never change. Forensic psychology is one of the most popular specialties within psychology today. We see countless true crime documentaries, cold case files, serial killer documentaries, and even podcasts about it. As someone who is earning my doctorate in clinical psychology...2023-10-101h 13Holistic HealersHOLISTIC TIPS: The "Authentic" SelfAll the time we hear the phrase "the authentic self". It's a great buzzword, but what does it actually mean? Many of us use it to describe becoming the "best version" of ourselves or reaching our "full potential". However, what does that actually look like? Today, I discuss my own interpretation of it and how you can tangibly get there. In essence, it's about congruency. It's about identifying our values, goals, and interests and aligning those with our current behaviors. But, without a doubt, it'll lead us to grief. Let's get into it!

Maybe it is because I am at the end of my first year in grad school and have been feeling a little worn out. But, I also think this feeling is all too common for a lot of us. We work really hard, push our limits for too long, do not properly give ourselves a break, and then feel the weight of the world on our shoulders. It's like a marathon. We want to win and beat our competitors. But if we give too much energy at the st...2023-09-1159 minHolistic HealersHOLISTIC TIPS: Normalizing GriefWelcome back to another monthly Holistic Tips episode! This month we are discussing grief. Back in September of last year, I posted an episode also about grief called “The Grief Workshop”. If you like this episode, go check that one out as well! The guest had a wonderful story, and I learned so much from her. This episode explains how grief is more than death- how we usually think about grief. In reality, grief is more common than we think. It's about any unexpected change we experience and learning how to adapt to a new reality. It can be the...2023-09-0125 minHolistic HealersSimplifying MeditationAre you someone who wants to become more consistent in your meditation practice?

Holistic HealersHOLISTIC TIPS: Masculine vs Feminine EnergyWelcome back to another monthly Holistic Tips episode! This month we are discussing the differences between masculine and feminine energy. When we talk about these energies, they do not refer to any specific sex, gender, or societal expectation of either. This energetic relationship exists in all humans which is why they are so important to become aware of so we can see when we are relying on one more than the other. Therefore, if we want to reach our most holistic selves, we must balance them. In this episode, I cover the differences between each, how the wounded masculine...2023-08-0127 min

Holistic HealersHolistic Care and MineralsWhen exploring new avenues of our health, one thing to discuss is our mineral consumption. And, at least in psychology, we don't often talk about the importance of minerals, why we should care about them, and how to better incorporate them into our lifestyles. So, for this episode, I invited Tanja Shaw onto the show who is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, Kinesiologist, and mindset coach who specializes in minerals. She is the founder of Fit + Vibrant Coaching Program, owner of Ascend Fitness + Lifestyle, a holistic health coaching studio, and host of the Fit + Vibrant You Podcast.

Holistic HealersHOLISTIC TIPS: Self-Awareness vs Self-DiagnosisWelcome back to another monthly Holistic Tips episode! This month we are discussing the differences between self-awareness and self-diagnosis, specifically, how stigmatizing self-diagnosing can be. And, although social media is a great tool for the initial understanding of topics (especially for those who do not have access or the means to seek specialty professional help), I emphasize how social media health advice and pop psychology should be taken with a grain of salt. Please always consult with a trusted healthcare professional before you begin posting about it or categorizing yourself. Let's get into it!

Holistic HealersMaking Yoga AccessibleOne of the greatest healers of many health concerns is movement, whether that be running, going to the gym, dancing, stretching, walking, or doing yoga. We need movement in order to feel good about ourselves and our bodies. More specifically, when we are talking about yoga, it seems as though it has slowly pushed away marginalized populations from accessing it- just like many other mental health interventions. As a result, Tamika Caston-Miller joined this conversation to not only talk about her experience as a yoga professional and helping her clients but also advocate for social justice, share information about the...2023-06-1959 min

Holistic HealersHOLISTIC TIPS: Building TrustWelcome back to another monthly Holistic Tips episode! This month we are talking about building trust (either for the first time or after it's been broken). Today, I introduce Brene Brown's BRAVING Inventory and some examples of each. Then, I explain how trust not only needs to be mutual between each person in the relationship, but it also needs to start intrinsically with ourselves. Finally, I end by posing the question: how can we ever begin to trust others if we cannot trust ourselves or not uphold each element of trust in ourselves first?

Holistic HealersCommunication is KeySo, we have all heard that communication is key to a healthy relationship. But what does that mean? And what does that look like? Often, we think we are communicating well but, in actuality, we are not in touch with our needs or our partner’s needs. We come across as defensive and it feels like our partner isn’t listening to us. Because of this, we start to have unnecessary arguments and it becomes two partners pinned against each other instead of them fighting the problem together. We also know that communication is a huge barrier in ourselves! The wors...2023-05-0827 min

Holistic HealersFunctional NeurologyThe human body is complex and interconnected. When it's thriving, we feel great, and the brain is in charge of maintaining this physiological balance. However, if we suffer an injury, especially neurologically like a traumatic brain injury (TBI), our body’s systems become dysregulated, and we can begin to struggle to try to find that previous equilibrium again.
So today, I invited Dr. Michelle Eisenmann to join the show! She is a functional neurologist who has earned her doctorate degree in chiropractic, a master's degree in clinical neurology, and a bachelor's degree in kinesiology. She also specializes in functional neurology an...2023-04-2357 min

Afterward, I highlight the significance of utilizing breathing techniques to shift out of our stress response within the sympathetic nervous system and into our rest/digest state of the parasympathetic nervous system outlined in Polyvagal Theory. In the end, I share the following breathing strategies and...2023-04-0127 min

Over the last month, I have spoken to many of my clients about the importance of emotional resilience when making changes in their lives. And, to be clear, this is not about having a lack of boundaries, “putting up” with unacceptable behaviors/systemic issues, or ignoring how we feel. Emotional resilience is about having the autonomy, or the choice, to decide the impact and the intensity of the emotions that come up. Emotional resilience is about taking the power back and being in control of our own emotions again- instead of our emot...2023-02-0115 min
