In the fourth of our 'Reflection Series', host Matt Phillips is joined by Daniel Williams, Movement Therapist & DNM/MI educator, who reflects on Ep.64 'Motivational Interviewing For Client Communication', recorded back in August 2021 with guest Dr Gary Mendoza. When Dr Gary Mendoza retired from delivering his Motivational Interviewing (MI) & Behaviour Change CPD course in 2022, Daniel Williams had already been working with Dr Mendoza to prepare for taking over delivery of the course, which included studying with the original co-founder of Motivational Interviewing, Dr Stephen Rollnick. Now in 2025, Daniel Williams delivers the Motivational Interviewing & Behaviour Change course alongside his other passion - 'Dermoneuromodulation' (DNM) - a structured, interactive approach to manual therapy developed by Diane Jacobs, that considers the nervous system of the patient from skin cell to sense of self. In this podcast episode, Daniel discusses the nuances of MI, including its role in guiding rather than fixing clients, and how it fosters authentic and empathetic engagements. Daniel elaborates on the shift from the "Righting Reflex" to a more collaborative approach, offering practical tips for therapists to improve their interaction skills during therapy sessions. This episode is ideal for therapists seeking to refine their communication techniques, emphasizing listening, understandinging client motivations, and the profound effect these skills have on therapy outcomes.

Today's special guest, Erica Hornthal, is a board certified dance/movement therapist and licensed clinical professional counselor based in Chicago. Erica is also author of Body Aware, a book devoted to movement, and Founder of Chicago Dance Therapy where she assists clients in moving their bodies to move their minds. When she found herself in the thick of crisis counseling after the horrific July 4th, 2022 shooting at the parade in downtown Highland Park, IL, it became clear to her that people seeking emotional support, as well as the volunteers, had one thing in common that nobody was addressing- their nervous systems were in utter distress. As a movement therapist, this realization was nothing new. However, in this moment, she found herself wishing she had a body-based emotional first-aid kit to guide these survivors out of their heads and back into their bodies and the idea for The Movement Therapy Deck was born. Now, her 52 Movement Therapy cards with embodied practices to relieve stress/anxiety, heal from trauma and find emotional balance are available to the public via Target, Amazon and her website. They offer perfect prompts to acknowledge, move through and release emotions and are accessible to everyone no matter age or physical ability.

EP.185 - Body Aware with Erica Hornthal, Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, Board-Certified Dance and Movement Therapist, Author Feel Good From Within with Yvette Le Blowitz - #SPAITGIRL Podcast Erica Hornthal, know as "The Therapist Who Moves You" is a board-certified dance/movement therapist and licensed clinical professional counselor. She is the founder and CEO of Chicago Dance Therapy and creator of the Dance Therapy Advocates Summit. As a licensed talk therapist, Erica knows that words only get us so far. Whereas, if we're willing to tap into its power, the body can take us the rest of the way as we process emotions and strengthen our mental health. Erica is spearheading this movement by moving you. Dance/Movement Therapy comes in, by providing the structure and space for people to truly listen to their bodies. This practice isn't about being a perfect dancer and it's not just a way to let loose and have fun. It's learning that movement is life, our movements influence our thoughts, which influence our behaviour, which makes us who we are. Erica Hornthal is the Author of Body Aware, a step-by-step journey how a mindful movement practice can slow down thoughts to lessen anxiety and panic and impact how and what we feel. When we talk about movement, most of us think "exercise". But the way we move our bodies, how we walk, roll, dance, stretch, stretch, connect, and take up space - is about so much more than physical fitness. Our movements impact our mental and emotional health and when we change the way we move, we can change the way we live. Body Aware helps readers to learn and identify where they physically hold their emotions, understand and interpret their body's unique language, explore bodily sensations, identify emotional blockages and upgrade harmful thought cycles to patterns that instead foster resilience, emotional regulation, and productivity. With a chapter on disability and movement diversity, Hornthal's guide begins to move dance therapy to a move inclusive, non-prescriptive space, helping each of us discover the kind of movement that works best for us. Broken into three sections: "How You Move," "How Movement is a Catalyst for Change," and "Transforming Your Life Through Movement," Body Aware is a revelatory transformational practice and an easy-to-use introduction to the mind-body power of intentional movement.

AOM FOUNDATIONS COURSE NOW AVAILABLE: www.aomfoundations.com Joined today by Jonathan Fuentes (www.instagram.com/biomechweekly) with one of thee most nuanced, in-depth conversation about fascia, consciousness, movement, the philosophy of training and experiential nature of the human body. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Integrative Bodyworker, Movement Therapist, and Personal Trainer @Biomechweekly is a low-cost, subscription based collaberative content platform focusing on a decentralized view of biomechanics, training modalities, or any other sensory based practice. A decentralized approach sees human biomechanics modalities as a sensory technology that serves human beings to be more independent and empowered for their own self-interests, while not identifying with any of the philosophies of their creators. Trusting direct experience and testing everything for oneself first and foremost, especially with sensory experience, it denies any authority on biomechanics outside of ourselves and always emphasizes the supremacy of the Experiencer and what is useful to us in our studies of sensory technologies. These ideas have been influenced by cutting edge philosophies rooted in Futurism, specifically the book titled The Agathon Engine, published in 2020. Co-hosted by Anthony Manuele and Dr. William Rajbar, the foremost podcast opening discussion about the most innovative ways to train, and move. your body. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/the-art-of-move/message

I'm always curious when I sense - hear, feel or see - fear of change. It's like we think that a state of things-must-stay-the-same is a safe, secure place, and that change is scary or dangerous. Fear of change is actually fear of the unknown, the not-knowing. But the reality is that change is happening constantly, it's something we can neither control nor resist or avoid. And change is a good thing!Life is therefore a state of continuous movement, as Nily Ron explains in this week's MatChat. She is a NLP (Neuro-linguistic Programming) Practitioner, Life Coach and Movement Therapist. Nily has literally moved through life, from martial arts and bellydancing to formal dance, teaching along the way while getting a degree in Psychology. She now applies the principle of movement in her work with NLP through her offering called trimoving. Nily explains the three ways we can change our 1) posture (physical), 2) our thoughts (cognitive) and 3) the people we surround ourselves with (social) to get ourselves out of a place of 'stuckness'. It's a self-empowering process that enables you to "Be the ME that you want to BE". And what better way is there to be than that?Find Nily: @trimoving, www.trimoving.co.uk

Ep. 598 - Christine Kenline - Yoga Movement Therapist "I have transitioned out of my corporate deadline-driven world of design strategy into my new life path as a Yoga Movement Therapist. I have been attracting women clients at the start of my business who are seeking to transition into something else but at times not sure what or what that means except for they need a support system in their life as they move through this transition. These are the clients I am focused on which reflects my journey a few years ago. I also started a womxn's community called Seasons of Self to provide a safe and supportive environment as they transition from releasing toxic relationship patterns into creating a conscious relationship based on what they want, need, and desire.

Empowered Relationship Podcast: Your Relationship Resource And Guide
People who live with relational trauma develop hypersensitive nervous systems as a survival instinct. Orit Krug, an award-winning Board-Certified Dance and Movement Therapist, explains that this results in a disconnect between what the mind wants and the body feels, hindering us from experiencing true intimacy in loving relationships. Certain movements represent certain behaviors and desired ones can be triggered through dance and movement. As trauma is also expressed in physical posturing and habits, dance therapy can rewire new patterns of behavior through body movement and desire for a healthy and loving space. Orit has over a decade of experience helping women heal from past trauma and enjoy healthy lifelong relationships with their partners. Orit founded the “Mind Your Body” podcast and has been featured in Elephant Journal, ThriveGlobal, Authority Magazine, as well as quoted in SELF & INSIDER. Check out the transcript to this episode in Dr. Jessica Higgin's website. In this episode: 01:52 Relationships are mirrors that reveal wounded aspects of ourselves. Addressing these ignored areas allows us to become better equipped in navigating long-term relational intimacy. 04:10 Introduction to Orit Krug: Her history of trauma and expertise in dance and movement therapy. 09:13 Trauma gets trapped in the nervous system and causes us to become hyper vigilant. Survival responses are designed to keep us safe and cannot be changed by simply adopting mindsets. 13:40 People living with trauma attract negative relationships that sabotage intimacy and pleasure because of its familiarity. 16:32 Recognize avoidant and numbing behavior patterns in intimate relationships that cause disconnects between mind and body. Getting triggered by these automatic reactions clouds our access to our higher brains and prevents sexual intimacy. 21:39 As memories of trauma are stored in our bodies as different sensations, dance and movement therapy provide a safe space to tune in again. This therapy also helps expand our window of tolerance for being vulnerable in a relationship. 29:44 Different movements represent different behaviors. How we hold our body is a habitual and physiological manifestation that prevents us from becoming the best versions of ourselves. 35:36 How dance therapy works: Revealing behavioral patterns in your relationship and feeling a space between your instinctive reactions and actual responses to heal from years of trauma 46:06 Information on Orit's free programs and Facebook group Mentioned The Wired for Love Website The Lasting Love Movement Group Orit Krug's Let Love In Program Connect with Dr. Jessica Higgins Facebook: facebook.com/EmpoweredRelationship Instagram: instagram.com/drjessicahiggins Podcast: drjessicahiggins.com/podcasts/ Pinterest: pinterest.com/EmpowerRelation LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/drjessicahiggins Twitter: @DrJessHiggins Website: drjessicahiggins.com Email: jessica@drjessicahiggins.com If you have a topic you would like me to discuss, please contact me by clicking on the “Ask Dr. Jessica Higgins” button here.

Welcome to this bonus episode to the Body Knows Podcast, which Marcela has recorded by herself between seasons. This bonus episode is about the upcoming Still Flowing Yoga Teacher Training, and in conversation we have a former guest of the show; Gemma Mallol, founder of SFYTT, a Somatic Experiencing practitioner, Senior Yoga Teacher and Mindfulness teacher. Also Blanche Mullholand, Somatic Movement Educator, Body Worker and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner. And, Marcela Wakeham, Senior Yoga Teacher, Movement Therapist, and Experiential Anatomist. The three together are the principle teaching staff of the training, along with Neville Cregan, who delivers the history and philosophy of yoga The conversation touches into the core of Marcela's own somatic practice, as it is the journey of contemporary yoga teacher training in the field of somatics. And what is somatics? Well somatics is the body, the ability of the mind to be aware of the host. It is as well a guidance to follow natural patterns imprinted in cells and movement initiation from different tissues or body systems. Somatics is a returning to the natural intelligence which is vast and enriched ancestral knowledge. Like Emilie Conrad, one of the pioneers of somatic movement in the 60s, says: “The body can be seen as a resonation chamber in which the player of breath becomes a kind of music. The versatility of breath invites ranges of new sensations, responses – new awareness develop, new relationships are formed. The versatility of breath allows our organism to become more diverse, increasing our options to interact in new ways. Breath enlivens our internal functioning, allowing more to exist.” In the new ways we find ourselves living in our technological world it is so important to establish a direct contact with sensations, and to have a practice which encourages free expression, harnessing the natural development of inner wisdom. Yoga & somatics is a new trend that has been rapidly taking shape, and gaining popularity, but like most new trends it can have its pitfalls, and it is important find a truly qualified somatic practitioner, one who is not teaching form the head, and for that it takes years of experience, practicing the art of going in, as well as years of practice to make sense of how to teach it, paired with continuous self-actualization. Still flowing yoga Teacher Training was established in 2008, offering trainings internationally, a highly regarded as a pioneering program in integrating contemporary somatic insights and mindfulness with yoga. It is a 200 hour training accredited by UK Yoga Alliance and is delivered by us as experienced teachers, who are all highly respected in our field of expertise. The training will take place at The Yoga Garden in West Sussex in the U.K. A beautiful natural Centre, it is found within the 3,500 acre rewilding project that is the Knepp Estate. The training takes place in a handcraft yurt set within a wild flower meadow, accompanied by the chorus of uplifting birdsongs. For registration and enquiries contact blanche@somatic-alchemy.co.uk For more details about the course tutors please see our websites. Gemma Mallol http://www.stillflowingyogateachertraining.com. Blanche Mulholland https://somatic-alchemy.co.uk. Ana Marcela Wakeham https://embodiedpractices.com. We hope you enjoy this bonus episode about the journey and integration of somatics into yoga teacher trainings, which goes hand by hand with the story and journey of us as teachers. We'll be doing another bonus episode next month too and as ever please share this episode with anyone you think it may be of benefit to and rate and review on Apple Podcast if it speaks to your heart.
Our guide for today on this journey of communal actualization is Saad Choeiter, a doctor of osteopathic medicine and a movement therapist, that prefers to use his hands rather than a scalpel as his healing tool of choice.I want to set the stage for this interview by shining the spotlight on three main points of focus for our dialogue. 1. About Saad and his unique human journey. 2. Introduce you to a form of treatment, to actively heal physical elements that is at times overshadowed by our current medical, industrial complex.3. Provide you the listener with tools to be proactive in either healing or preventing said physical elements.

EP72: Over the past 25+ years my guest has worked with thousands of patients providing impactful change, helping them to heal and improve the quality of their life and ultimately transforming their lives. Marian Barnick is a Registered Kinesiologist and Movement Therapist. Aside from her Bachelor of Science Degree in Kinesiology, she has certifications from Roy Matheson and Associates, Gray Cook's Functional Movement Systems, Kinesio-Taping Levels 1 & 2, and the Center for Research on Pain and Disability. Her expertise in evaluating biomechanics and body alignment allows her to develop corrective strategies to teach each body how to move well. When the body moves well and in alignment, it decreases the stress and tightness that causes pain and creates limitations, it allows better energy flow, joint mobility, and muscle contractions. This improves energy, increases strength and endurance, and allows the body to reach its best potential. Marian, who clearly practices what she preaches as she's encountered several surgeries and is facing more, is a firm believer that you CAN overcome barriers, even when when the obstacles you're facing seem insurmountable. I enjoyed interviewing Marian as she clearly loves what she does. The joy and energy she exudes is contagious!

THE BODY KNOWS TRAILER EPISODE 001 Hello, and welcome to The Body Knows Podcast. The show that explores the wisdom of the body, through the experience, teaching and lives of our guests. We are your hosts Marcela and Mat Wakeham, and we are so happy to have you here with us today. MARCELA Marcela is a Senior Yoga teacher and Movement Therapist, and a life-long long practitioner of Yoga, Dance and Pilates. She has 20 years of experience in the field of body awareness, mindfulness and body-mind-movement related practices, and is versed in anatomy and physiology of movement. Over the years Marcela's searched for practices and techniques, which improve our sense of wellbeing, embodiment and self-expression. As a teacher her aim is to allow the student to find the authenticity of the body during practice and take ownership of it, guiding them through the process to find the present moment where mind, body and spirit are in communion. Her style of teaching is immersed in the practice of observing the body as a process, to find health, strength and resiliency. Marcela's main work is to help the inquirer to find their own voice and recover their birthright, which she believes is the deeply felt sensation of being alive, and able to relate with the environment we live in with grace. MAT Mat benefits from a lifetime of spiritual study, formal practice, training and personal experience. Within this there's a consistent thread of mindfulness based meditation, supported by loving awareness, concentration and compassion, first learnt on retreat in the forests of Thailand and continued in self-practice and on retreat in the UK. His healing journey over the last 20 years has taken in analysis, hypnotherapy, acupuncture and psychedelic plant medicine. These he combines with external practices too, most predominantly strength and fitness training, as well as yoga and martial arts, and most recently somatic sexual healing, breathwork and cold exposure. His synthesis of these has led him to discover a natural, embodied simplicity to his understanding of wellbeing and spirit. His journey speaks to the truth that if we want to, and if we're willing to address the habitual patterns stored in our bodies, we can open to pleasure, conscious connection, and self-love to live guided by the body's own wisdom.

I couldn't imagine a better interview to kick things off than this inspiring conversation with Jehan Izhar, known on stage as ‘Jypsy Wild'. I met Jehan while being a performer in Rise The Night, a pole and aerial show here in LA that brought in some of the world's best dancers. I could tell within moments of meeting Jehan that she had a wild ability for creating exceptional experiences. In this episode we discuss accepting new realities, changing and channeling your skills to serve the greater society and getting weird with your own creativity in a time where we all need to stay at home. If there's anything we can take away from this episode it's that no matter what's going on outside around us, no one can take away your ability to create and find comfort from within your mind.
