Going Inside: Healing Trauma from the Inside Out

Movement as Medicine: Qi Gong, Dance, and Trauma with Elia Mrak

Oct 21, 2024

In this episode of Going Inside, I sit down with Elia Mrak, a trauma informed educator and Qigong practitioner, to explore the deep connection between movement,healing, and aliveness. We dive into how dance and Qigong can be powerful tools for transforming trauma, re-energizing the body, and finding vitality. 

Key Takeaways:

  1. Movement, even for 30 seconds, is a powerful way to reconnect with your aliveness and build vitality.
  2. Trauma isn’t something to get rid of but a stored resource that can be transformed into energy and life force through movement.
  3. Qigong and dance can offer fun and deeply pleasurable ways to access our emotional energy and heal.
