Exciting news! Sophie Strand returns to The Numinous Podcast with a probing conversation around her stunning new memoir, The Body is a Doorway, and:

• the meaning of the word "health"

• the debatable value of pursuing a complex medical diagnosis

• orienting towards a reparative reading of the body

• New Age purity culture and healthism

• avoiding the pitfall of one's work being seconded to support a Pollyanna narrative or spiritual bypassing on a 'healing journey'

• navigating complex health issues that overlap with sexual trauma

• one of my favourite answers (in over 250 episodes!) to the question: How are you coping with grief and rage?

Content Note: All the usual warnings around dealing with sensitive material – it' a conversation that goes deep around many forms of trauma. Especially if you have a sensitive nervous system, consider doing some light tasking while you listen, keep your arms and legs moving while you listen if you can, or listen if small increments.
