Healing isn’t about pushing harder,
it’s about listening deeper.
Healing Through Movement: Reconnecting with My Body
I spent years believing that healing meant pushing through, but my body taught me a very different truth. Gentle movement, restorative yoga, somatic exercise, and mindful breathwork helped me rebuild safety, strength, and trust after trauma and chronic illness disconnected me from myself. Now I move in a way that honours my body, and I help others do the same.
When My Body Forced Me to Listen
I used to ignore my body’s whispers: tight shoulders, shallow breath, racing heart. I was too busy volunteering, leading activities, and “doing it all.” Then, after a pulmonary embolism and major surgery, my body screamed. It was exhausting, humbling—but necessary. That’s when I started to really listen.
