Healing is not only what happens on a mental level but is largely dictated by what's happening on an emotional and somatic level. If you are someone who has ever struggled with their feelings, felt like they were "too much" or "bad"...this conversation is for you. Laurie Anne Briere shares her experiential wisdom as a somatic practitioner, Transforming Touch therapist, breathwork facilitator, and educator who specializes in early trauma resolution.

This curious conversation seeks to help you understand what the body's responses are telling you and explores why and how we develop certain coping mechanisms as attempts at regulation. Laurie Anne's insights will completely change your perpsective on any "negative" coping habits you've acquired over the years and help you view them through the lens of compassion.

What this conversation ultimately taught us is that "We are always doing the best we can." Our nervous system is what communicates to our bodies and brains whether we are safe or not, and even if those signals don't make sense to our mind...they colour how we feel, think, and interact with ourselves and the world. When we can learn to see these responses as helpful rather than hurtful, we can bring more understanding and compassion to our inner and outer worlds.
