Welcome back to Hard Beautiful Journey! In this episode, I’m joined by my dear friend Holli Hoffarth, a yoga instructor and somatic therapist-in-training, to explore one of the pillars of my Healing Heart Journey framework: Honour Your Body.
Holli shares her deeply personal healing journey, how she discovered somatic healing after a major health setback, and how trauma gets stored in the body. We also dive into somatic practices like neurogenic tremors, breathwork, and the importance of listening to our body’s signals.
Tune in for an inspiring conversation about the connection between mind, body, and healing. 💜
