Rachel shares her meditation practice and how it helps her tap into higher states of consciousness. They also discuss the importance of being able to sit with oneself and the challenges that come with it. The conversation then shifts to Rachel's journey in the fitness industry and how she realized the importance of holistic health. She talks about her struggles with gut health and the connection between emotional stress and physical symptoms. Rachel emphasizes the need to address the root cause of health issues and the importance of functional medicine and comprehensive testing. Functional medicine is becoming more popular as people seek holistic options and question Western medicine. However, there are both positives and negatives to the practice. The positive aspect is that functional medicine allows for a deeper understanding of root causes and encourages dietary and lifestyle changes. Coaches in the functional medicine space can provide personalized care and coaching, which is lacking in traditional medicine. On the negative side, some practitioners focus too much on extensive testing and prescribing supplements without addressing the root causes. It's important for coaches to have done their own inner work and have a deep understanding of the interconnectedness of physical and emotional health. In this final part of the conversation, the hosts and guest discuss their experiences with somatic breathwork and psychedelic journeys. They explore the power of breathwork in resetting the nervous system and allowing suppressed emotions to surface and be released. They also touch on the importance of creating a supportive and safe environment for psychedelic experiences. The conversation ends with a brief breathwork session led by the Rachel.
