Listening to Your Body and Processing Trauma with Kole Whitty • 027
Ep. 027: Whether we’re trying to improve our health, connect more deeply with our intuition, or even improve our relationships, learning to listen to the body plays a critical role. That’s because our body is our experiential vehicle in our human existence. It’s the human part of us that grounds us. Often, we treat it so badly that the messages it gives us are all about survival, but when we give it what it needs, the messages can go beyond that. It allows for our highest self, or our intuition, to speak to us and guide us on our paths.Today we talk to Kole Hansen Whitty, a Bio-Integration Specialist, Personal Trainer, and Keynote Speaker. She works with adventurous entrepreneurs who thrive in fast paced environments and struggle to understand the messages their body is sending.

How our bodies communicate with us
How to process out trauma that lives in the body
How properly listening to our bodies benefits more than just our health
