Your body has been speaking to you—whispering, nudging, sometimes even screaming. But have you been listening?When we disconnect, whether due to trauma, societal pressures, or daily stress, we override the signals that guide us toward pleasure, safety, and alignment. This disconnection often manifests as chronic pain, anxiety, digestive issues, or even numbness.Healing doesn't come from pushing harder—it comes from allowing space, feeling into the moment, and recognizing that slowing down is actually the fastest way to true transformation. In this week's episode, Angela and I, talk about...Is your body trying to tell you something?Why do so many of us feel disconnected?What if the key to healing isn't doing more, but doing less?Could slowing down actually get you where you want to go—faster?And many more!

In this episode I am joined by bodyworker and healer Laura Shakeshaft. Laura is a multi-faceted practitioner who utilises her wide range of modalities to help bring balance, harmony, rhythm, and safety to horses and humans. Based in South Wales Laura has been treating my herd of horses since their move in October 2024. I have been very impressed with Laura's expanse of knowledge and experience which is why I asked her to join us on the podcast. In this episode Laura and I discuss her less well known modality - Amnanda.Amnanda is an Ayurvedic treatment combining the use of specific oil combinations, very light hands on touch, mantra, and intention. Treatments span over a period of 12 months with monthly sessions enabling the body to settle into the framework over a consistent period of time. Amnanda stems from an ancient Tibetan lineage and is a highly effective and encouraging approach to sustainable healing.Laura and I also touch on the power of cultivating safety, horses' innate healing intelligence within the body, and what is means to get out our own way when it comes to being a practitioner. As of today, Laura is the only practitioner working with animals in Europe. She is running courses in South Wales and other areas of the UK throughout the year.Thank you for listening!

What up, Beasts! Today, I'm sitting down with an absolute powerhouse in the world of bodywork, someone who's been at this game for over 30 years, way beyond the industry average. She's an integrated bodywork therapist who has combined manual therapy, movement, and a bit of witchy intuition to develop her own proprietary method for healing musculoskeletal pain at its root. We talk about how she went from working in orthopedic clinics to training other practitioners, the unexpected twists (like an HGTV moment!) that led her back to bodywork, and why longevity in this field is so rare, but totally possible when you do it right.We also dive into the mind-body connection and why blaming your muscles for your pain is basically like blaming your Wi-Fi when your laptop dies (you gotta look at the real issue). She shares how trauma, stress, and movement patterns all play a role in pain and healing, and why practitioners need to stop looking for a checklist and start truly seeing their clients. If you've ever felt like your body is working against you, or if you're a movement professional who wants to help clients on a deeper level, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in and get ready for some serious knowledge bombs!As always, I hope something lands with you today. I hope something you hear tugs at your heart strings and/or I hope you laugh.Bio: From working with NBA and NFL athletes to opening a center that captured the attention of Cleveland's mayor, Gina Schatz has helped thousands of people live pain-free in their bodies.

Jahrelang habe ich gedacht, mein Mindset wäre der Schlüssel zu allem. Aber dann kam mein Körper und meinte: „Hold my beer.“ Ich hatte zwar früher schon Berührungspunkte mit Energy-Healing. Doch da mein Kopf es aber nicht rational erklären konnte und innerlich die Skepsis blieb, ob das nicht alles doch HokusPokus ist, hab ich einfach das Label “Ja, alles ganz nett und kann mal machen” drauf geklebt. Damn, ich lag sowas von daneben. Als würdest du auf die schärfste Tabasco-Flasche der Welt das Etikett “gut gewürzt” drauf kleben. Untertreibung des Jahrhunderts. Ich habe mich in komplett andere Sphären geatmet, mein Körper hat sich angestaute Energien ausgeschüttelt als hätte ich einen epileptischen Anfall und meine Weiblichkeit hat mal kurzerhand ihre Ketten gesprengt und ist nun komplett entfesselt. Und es ist sowas von geil. Und das Krasseste? Mein Kopf hatte damit nichts zu tun. Willst du wissen, wie du deine eigene Energie wieder spüren kannst? Dann hör dir die neue Podcastfolge an.

Ich, die Mindset-Queen und Bezähmerin unzähliger Quatschis, muss gestehen, dass ich etwas noch viel Geileres für mich entdeckt habe. Bodywork - hätte mir jemand vor Jahren gesagt, wie genial es ist und was du mit dem Körper alles drehen, verändern und lösen kannst, hätte mein innere Schlaumeier wahrscheinlich nur skeptisch geguckt, angefeuert vom Quatschi – der sich bei solchen Gelegenheiten lauthals wieder zu Wort meldet. Versteh mich nicht falsch – Mindset-Arbeit ist superwichtig und gehört nach wie vor zu den Basics, doch was passiert ist, nachdem ich angefangen habe, mehr mit meinem Körper zu arbeiten und auf ihn zu hören, da fällste fast vom Glauben ab. Kilos sind gepurzelt, auf einmal hatte ich Energie für zehn und viele andere Effekte, für die ich mir mit Mindsetarbeit das Hirn abgearbeitet hätte. Wie genau du nun eine Connection zu deinem Körper bekommst und dein Gehirn mal schaukeln schickst, erfährst du in dem ersten Teil dieser Podcast-Folge. Alle aktuellen Infos zu mir und meinen Kursen findest du hier: https://claudiaengel.de/links/ Ich freu mich auf dich.

Often, the things we react to come from when we're very young, and we don't have a conscious memory about it." - Dr. Karyne Wilner [00:15:06] "Anger is a feeling made out of chemicals like adrenaline and cortisol. If you get angry and hold on to it, like holding a grudge, this chemistry stays in your body and poisons you, bringing a lot of negative thinking." - Dr. Karyne Wilner [00:18:13] "Suppressed anger, where you act like you're not angry but inside you're burning up, is the worst for your health. It can lead to heart disease, cancer, and autoimmune issues." - Dr. Karyne Wilner [00:23:48] "I enjoyed reading the book, and I know it's 'Releasing Toxic Anger for Women,' but I tell you, after reading this, I was like, men need this as well." - Gerald J.

Juliet chats with Laura Phoenix, a writer, healer, yoga teacher, and somatic experiencing practitioner who is queer, neurodivergent, and traumatized. Their life's work is guiding people in yoga and bodywork for trauma recovery. Juliet & Laura discuss going beyond 'talk therapy' and learning to listen to our bodies that are always trying to tell us something. They connect over their shared humanity in "walking the walk" in their own mental health journeys. They dive into what somatic experiencing is and how it supplements talk therapy to help clients go deeper. It makes sense as we're WHOLE beings and can access "movement as a tool to broaden our awareness."There is lots to explore in the world of trauma and bodywork and Laura posits "isn't that where the medicine is?" regarding something specific in therapeutic work.

Do you ever feel like you're shaking with rage? Or do you tremble with anxiety? Because your body uses shaking as a means to release stress and trauma from the body! This is a normal response, but cultural conditioning has suppressed our natural inclination to shake off tension. It's important to care for our bodies, just as we would for pets, and learn to close the stress cycle. Somatic shaking can help. Take a breath, give yourself a little shake, and let's talk about how:

Getting diagnosed with breast cancer is one of the most life-changing experiences a person can face—but there's power in how you choose to walk through it. Today, I'm sitting down again with my dear friend Dr. Filomena Trindade, an incredible physician and a pioneer in Integrative and Functional Medicine, who faced her own battle with Stage 4 breast cancer and chose an incredible path blending traditional and holistic treatments. From vitamin C and artemisinin, she shares her journey of healing and how she created a body environment that was less welcoming to cancer. It's a beautiful conversation about trusting your gut, honoring your body's needs, and exploring every option with an open mind. Dr. Filomena's journey reveals the importance of listening to your intuition and building a strong support network to uplift you every step of the way. She's faced conventional treatments too, balancing them with holistic practices that kept her grounded and connected to her health goals. Her story is a powerful reminder that healing is deeply personal and that there's no one “right” way to find wellness. If you or a loved one are navigating health challenges, this episode will leave you feeling empowered and ready to think differently about what's possible.

Well, it's getting to be that time of life when I begin to realize that I'm mortal. Next year I turn 60, which, according to the Jewish blessing "May you live to a hundred and twenty," puts me smack dab in middle age.I've been whole food plant-based for decades, and I'm pretty athletic. I meditate, and I keep a journal just in case I ever get the urge to write in it. I drink water, avoid tobacco products, drink about a quart of alcohol a year, and wear a bike helmet.So you'd think that I'd be going into the second half of life all guns a-blazing, ready to tackle any and all challenges.But you'd be wrong.The area where I'm weakest is flexibility.I'm working harder and harder to put my socks on. When I'm playing Ultimate or Padel, I have trouble bending down to catch a disc or return a ball.I'm worried about turning into a caricature of an old man: shuffling around, complaining about the weather and my rheumatism.I decided to do something about it.Maybe I even mentioned this to my wife, because in no time my Facebook feed was swollen with ads for online stretching programs.One caught my eye, because the presenter seemed real and down-to-earth. So I bought a "Science of Stretching" course from Lucas Rockwood, founder of YogaBody.Then I realized that I knew Lucas.In fact, he'd hosted me on his Age Less / Live More Podcast way back in March, 2014, where I talked about my goal of turning the world into a giant food forest. (Ah, permaculture :).We'd first met, in fact, about 8 years before that, when we were both learning the ins and outs of digital marketing.And one thing that caught my eye was that Lucas had settled in Barcelona, less than 30 km from where I live. So I reached out, and he graciously agreed to be a guest on Plant Yourself. I shlepped my recording equipment into the city, and we met at his studio and had a really good conversation.Mostly we talk about how to maintain healthspan, particularly in the second half of life.Lucas shares lots of valuable insights:how our athleticism might evolve as we agethe balance between training and injury preventionhow to get the benefits of yoga if someone (ahem) isn't crazy about actually doing yogathe power of intentional breath practices for regulating the nervous systemthe science of flexibility training (and why it's more or less unknown in most gyms)Lucas gives us the three principles of flexibility practice, and shares why most of the stretching we do doesn't actually increase our range of motion.And he shares three types of breathing and how to apply each one in practice and in daily life.We also cover some of the problems in the yoga community, including sexual exploitation. As you can see, our "range of conversation" parallels Lucas' own range of motion, and hopefully the one that I'm developing as I continue to deepen my own practice.If you plan on living a full and vibrant life, and you're approaching A Certain Age, this episode may serve you — as it did me — as a wakeup call.LinksYogaBody.comLucas' Age Less / Live More PodcastMy appearance on the Age Less / Live More PodcastJob's Body: A Handbook for Bodywork, by Dean Juhan

Tune in to learn about business abundance and how it can pay energetic dividends in your massage or bodywork business. “Maybe the biggest reason to reflect abundance in your practice is because what you put out into the world will inevitably come back to you.” This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast: Learn what “the last piece of candy” mentality is and how to flip it into abundance. How the ambience in your office cannot be overlooked and some small steps you can take to maintain the energy of abundance. Find out about the abundance of time and how you can provide it for your clients.
In this episode, we delve into the intersection of massage therapy, grief, caretaking, and end-of-life. We touch on global palliative care practices, the role of touch in support for those experiencing grief, navigating sensitive conversations, and creating safe spaces for clients. Our guest, Ronna Moore, a massage therapist with over 40 years of experience, specializes in oncology and palliative care, and is pursuing a doctorate in public health focusing on the role of massage therapy in palliative care. Join us to gain insights into shifting therapeutic mindsets and exploring practical resources to support those experiencing loss.

Do It With Intention | Business & Marketing for Massage and Bodywork Therapists
This week I talk with personal wardrobe stylist Elsa Isaac about how show up in our work so that we present ourselves as a reflection of who we are on the inside. “There comes a point when that misalignment becomes too much. It just feels like you're not showing up as who you know you are on the inside. So we do all this work, all this self-development, to heal and elevate that inner version of ourselves. But for some reason we completely negate the outer appearance.” — Elsa Isaac This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast: Learn how fashion and the healing arts produce an energetic effect on our mental and emotional state. Find out how Elsa pursued her eventual profession by seeking help from an online expert.
