Our relationship with our body is one of, if not the most important relationships in our lives. At Sakara we believe that deepening our body intelligence is key to well-being—which is why we're so excited to speak with today's guest, Dr. Rachel Allyn. As an author, TEDx speaker, and holistic somatic psychologist, Dr. Allyn's work hinges on the study of body wisdom. She focuses on taking pressure off the mind to foster a deeper connection with our bodies, working with patients to hone their “bodyfulness”—her term for expanding our mindfulness to incorporate our physical bodies. By integrating movement into her practice, she helps them unlearn and release long-held stigmas and shame about their bodies and their pleasure, allowing them to access greater satisfaction and joy—both in their physical relationships with themselves, and their intimate relationships with others.

When we prioritize pleasure, we connect back to the truest version of ourselves.In this conversation with Dr. Rachel Allyn, holistic clinical psychologist and author of the recently released book, The Pleasure Is All Yours, we chat the power and importance of pleasure, WTF “bodyfulness” really means, and why it matters.Pleasure is most often associated with sex— and while sex is important, pleasure is SO much more than just that. It's one of the fundamental aspects of being fully alive in the time we are given in these beautiful, messy, awkward, miraculous flesh suits.The full spectrum of life includes the capacity for both tremendous pain AND tremendous pleasure— and learning how to make space for both to coexist is a necessary piece of feeling the truth of our own aliveness, instead of always feeling removed from our experience or seeking to fill the good ole Bottomless Pit of Despair. While the experience of pleasure may seem fleeting, cultivating moments of pleasure can compound into deeper, lasting states of joy and contentment.For many of us, we've spent so much time being conditioned into how we're “supposed” to think, feel, and act that we've forgotten what it feels like to trust the knowing of our own body. This leaves us feeling a disconnect, both with ourselves and with others.Through Dr. Allyn's bodyfulness framework that she shares in her book (this conversation is just a teaser!), readers can learn to reconnect to their bodies, their hearts, and release internalized shame and conditioning.About Dr. Rachel Allyn (she/her)Rachel Allyn, PhD is a licensed clinical psychologist, certified yoga instructor, public speaker, and relationship columnist.

Connecting to Your Spiritual Team with Christi Hoffman, and Self-Care and Compassion with Rachel Allyn, Ph.D.
Intuitive healer, channel, teacher, and consultant Christi Hoffman brings a plethora of spiritual knowledge and expertise as she guides us in the importance of connecting with our spiritual team. Plus, author, holistic psychologist, yoga instructor, and relationship/sex therapist Rachel Allyn, Ph.D., discusses her book The Pleasure Is All Yours, which helps readers release barriers to receiving life's pleasures and deeper connections with others.
In this episode, Dr. Rachel Allyn, a holistic psychologist, and pleasure expert, walks me through the concept of “bodyfullness.” Sharing some personal experiences, she talks about how embodied mindfulness can help us heal our traumas, reclaim our right to healthy pleasures, and inspire heartfelt human connection. What is bodyfullness? Bodyfullness is the ability to use connection and movement and physical awareness, in addition to paying attention to our thoughts and feelings, to really open up to pleasure. It also recognizes the ways that trauma lives in our body but goes to the next step of owning our rights to life's pleasures and giving ourselves mental permission to enjoy, especially in a world where pleasure has been labelled a dirty word. How does the practice of bodyfullness tap into our capacity for healing and connection? Bodyfullness is moving away from the notion that feeling good in our body is bad and should be repressed. In fact, reverence for our body is the portal to opening up to different types of pleasure. When we open up to pleasure just within our own self, we connect more to others, and it helps us to open up to intimacy and relationships, be it sexual or platonic. How do we overcome some barriers to bodyfullness such as self-acceptance and body image issues? Dr. Allyn believes that part of the system we've been raised in is the epidemic of disembodiment, and that we should start an inner revolution about our bodies. bodyfullness is not just loving our body, but also embracing pain and discomfort especially when we override our body's messages. We should all take time to listen to the language of the body and put it into balance. Four essential and overlooked types of pleasure Dr. Allyn discusses the four types of pleasure, underscoring the need to embrace all of life's pleasures, because we all deserve to experience every single one. She talks about sensual pleasure, playful and creative pleasure, flow states, and erotic and sexual pleasure. Embracing pleasures does not mean running away from pain. Rather, it helps us tolerate and regulate pain, and keeps us grounded and honest about ourselves in dealing with emotions. How do people expand their pleasure and how do they share it with others? Dr. Allyn suggests slowing down and giving the body permission to rest. We need to start with ourselves before moving into engaging with others and bringing in somebody else to share in our pleasures. We need to own our right to pleasures first to effectively share and open up to what others might want for pleasures. Ultimately, it is a process of give and take. The Pleasure Is All Yours: Reclaim Your Body's Bliss and Reignite Your Passion for Life In her book, Dr. Allyn gives light to people feeling stagnant coming out of the pandemic. She hopes that her book can reignite the power of inner connection to our bodies in order to connect to others on a deeper level. The negative feelings that we experience during these trying times are all part of a natural reaction to our collective trauma. Self-compassion, patience and support from others is key.

It also recognizes the ways that trauma lives in our body but goes to the next step of owning our rights to life's pleasures and giving ourselves mental permission to enjoy, especially in a world where pleasure has been labelled a dirty word. How does the practice of bodyfullness tap into our capacity for healing and connection? Bodyfullness is moving away from the notion that feeling good in our body is bad and should be repressed. In fact, reverence for our body is the portal to opening up to different types of pleasure. When we open up to pleasure just within our own self, we connect more to others, and it helps us to open up to intimacy and relationships, be it sexual or platonic. How do we overcome some barriers to bodyfullness such as self-acceptance and body image issues? Dr. Allyn believes that part of the system we've been raised in is the epidemic of disembodiment, and that we should start an inner revolution about our bodies. bodyfullness is not just loving our body, but also embracing pain and discomfort especially when we override our body's messages. We should all take time to listen to the language of the body and put it into balance. Four essential and overlooked types of pleasure Dr. Allyn discusses the four types of pleasure, underscoring the need to embrace all of life's pleasures, because we all deserve to experience every single one. She talks about sensual pleasure, playful and creative pleasure, flow states, and erotic and sexual pleasure. Embracing pleasures does not mean running away from pain. Rather, it helps us tolerate and regulate pain, and keeps us grounded and honest about ourselves in dealing with emotions. How do people expand their pleasure and how do they share it with others? Dr. Allyn suggests slowing down and giving the body permission to rest. We need to start with ourselves before moving into engaging with others and bringing in somebody else to share in our pleasures. We need to own our right to pleasures first to effectively share and open up to what others might want for pleasures. Ultimately, it is a process of give and take. The Pleasure Is All Yours: Reclaim Your Body's Bliss and Reignite Your Passion for Life In her book, Dr. Allyn gives light to people feeling stagnant coming out of the pandemic. She hopes that her book can reignite the power of inner connection to our bodies in order to connect to others on a deeper level. The negative feelings that we experience during these trying times are all part of a natural reaction to our collective trauma. Self-compassion, patience and support from others is key.
