In this episode we welcome Jennifer ‘Suki' Otsuki, an Austin native whose journey has been shaped by resilience, healing, and a deep connection to service. After dedicating nearly two decades to the restaurant industry in Dallas following her graduation from the Texas Culinary Academy, Jennifer discovered the transformative power of yoga, cultivating a 20-year practice that would become her sanctuary through life's challenges. Jennifer's story is one of profound transformation. In 2020, she faced the closure of her passion project and restaurant, as well as the end of a 13-year engagement. These losses left her feeling buried under the weight of grief, which she only came to recognize during a women's retreat. Through self-love, healing, and years of reclaiming a life worth living, Jennifer discovered the tools to navigate her journey. However, just as she began hosting retreats and sharing her gifts with others, she was struck by the sudden loss of her partner, sous chef, and best friend at the end of 2023. Now, Jennifer channels her experiences and healing journey into guiding others through grief, healing, and connection. Whether it's through her nourishing meals, her yoga flows, or the profound experiences of her retreats, Jennifer demonstrates that it is possible to create a life you don't have to retreat from. She joins us today to share her story of perseverance, the lessons she's learned from navigating grief, and how she's helping others find the space to heal and grow. Tune in for a conversation filled with hope, resilience, and the power of self-love and connection.

Send BFTA a commentSaj Razvi and Hillary McBride return to BFTA, this time together, for one of the most compelling and fascinating episodes we have featured on the podcast-- an in depth, in the room exploration of the moment to moment unfolding of a psychedelic-assisted trauma session. During her training to work with Saj''s psychedelic somatic model, called PSIP, Hillary did a profound session with Saj that led to some very unexpected gifts for Hillary. Interestingly, the psychedelic used for this session was THC— Saj has spoken extensively in past BFTA episodes why he considers vaped THC a particularly potent catalyst for somatic trauma work, to rapidly cut through dissociation and heighten autonomic reactions.First we'll hear Saj give some background context and an introduction to the theory of his work, then we'll hear Hillary enter into a very emotional and often physically grueling session, with both Saj and Hillary weighing in occasionally with commentary about the process, then finally we hear them both summarize what happened, how they understand the meaning and the story.A heads up, Hillary's session gets very intense at times, if you don't feel ready to hear someone walk the fires of their nearly annihilating trauma, maybe save this episode for another time."I Love You, I Hate You, Are You My Mom?"

**This is the (almost) 80-minute live DJ set recording from the Ecstatic Dance portion of this Root.Rise.Release New Moon Breath & Dance Ritual from the end of December that celebrated the Capricorn new moon and my 45th solar return.This very special moon ritual is a larger gathering with a cacao ceremony, astrology & energetic transmissions, somatic breathwork, leading into an ecstatic dance journey, meditation, and followed by a potluck social to close out the event.Cacao is the plant medicine offering for this ritual. I have been serving this beautiful heart-opening elixir because of its magical effect combined with my teaching of the Universal Law of Shen-Qi-Jing - whereby the heart is the gateway/portal in which we receive the highest truth and infinite wisdom from our Soul (a fractal of the Universe). Thus, having the heart open allows us to be able to access this higher information.The BREATH is everything; it happens both consciously and unconsciously. When we bring our awareness to it and breathe with intention - big things can happen. Somatic breathwork invigorates the body, mind and spirit as we bring this up-regulating breath of life through our bodies, exploring all parts of us. When we breathe in this way, our nervous system becomes awakened which results in the ability to access stagnant energy and emotions that have been stored deep down in the body. This can present physically such as temperature changes, shaking, yawning and cramping (which can also be caused by the fluctuation of our blood chemistry). We can also experience an array of emotional experiences from anger, sadness and grief to joy and bliss. Sounds are encouraged and space is made specifically for that as it helps to tone the Vagus nerve and to move energy. All of the sounds and emotions are welcome - all parts of YOU are welcome.Dance is another potent form of medicine to heal the mind, body and soul as physical movement aids in transmuting (stuck and or stagnant) energy held within us. My ethos with how I guide ecstatic dance is through the chakra system, from root to crown; the music is to activate these different parts of us and help move the energy through our being. I mindfully guide us from the breathwork into slow and gentle movement as we build the energy back up during our dance. My "job" is to move us from stillness up to peak states and back down again, allowing for wild expansion and returning to a grounded and harmonious state.The process is magic, and when everyone in this large group allows their energy to flow, it is an unbelievable experience. I am incredibly grateful to be a part of it and to be serving in this way.The energy of the New (Black) Moon was at its peak on Monday, December 30th at around 5:30 PM (ET) and is present for 2-3 days on each side of this point.My next event coming up is New Years Eve with the Chocolate Groove at the Church of Holy Trinity in downtown Toronto.For information & tickets:https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/chocolate-groove-new-years-eve-2024-an-intentional-nye-journey-tickets-1085379582549Follow me for the latest updates:https://linktr.ee/MattyRyceSending so much love your way for 2025.
Ask David With Special Guest Expert, Dr. Matthew May Daily Mood Log: Does it have to be done perfectly? Somatic Complaints: How does TEAM Help? Passive Aggression: What distortions cause it? Roger, from Australia, asks: Do daily mood logs still work if you complete them ‘imperfectly'? Roger also asks: Based on your clinical experience, what causes a reduction or complete elimination of in symptoms for people who present with somatic complaints or chronic pain? TOZ asks: Does passive aggressive behavior result from All-or-Nothing Thinking? The answers below were written prior to the show, based on correspondence with those who asked the questions. The live answers on the show will be different in many cases. 1, Roger, from Australia, asks: Do daily mood logs still work if you complete them ‘imperfectly'? 2. Roger also asks: Based on your clinical experience, what causes a reduction or complete elimination of symptoms for people who present with somatic complaints or chronic pain? Dear David, Sure, I would love to have my questions be on an Ask David! It would be okay for you to use my real name and my location as being in Australia for the podcast and show notes. I've reworded the questions so that they get across what I was actually trying to ask in my previous email. You might now have a slightly different response based on the new questions. I have to apologise as my wording in my previous email was confusing, even for me. Here's a shorter version of the first question: “Dear David, I've got a question about doing daily mood logs as part of my psychotherapy homework. I tend to start a lot of new daily mood logs where I write my negative emotions and thoughts, as well as do positive reframing, but then get stuck when it comes to doing methods for challenging my negative thoughts, as I get caught up on trying to do the exercise perfectly. I get worried that I won't see as much benefit from the exercise if I don't do the steps perfectly or in order. Did you see improvements in patients who filled out their daily mood logs imperfectly? Perhaps they may have skipped steps or maybe they couldn't crush their negative thoughts completely, but continued to move on to working with new thoughts and seeing if they could crush those.” An even shorter version of the question would be: “Do daily mood logs still work if you complete them ‘imperfectly'?” A shorter version of the question about somatic complaints and pain is: “I've also got a question on treating somatic symptoms and chronic pain. Some clinicians have seen people improve by doing journalling or expressive writing about life stressors such as past stressors, current stressors, and self-limiting behaviours or beliefs. Other activities which seem to be useful include writing unsent letters to people who've hurt you, or doing behavioural changes for self-limiting beliefs like learning how to designate free time for yourself if you have a tendency to take on too much or feel guilty about spending time relaxing and not doing work. I was wondering what you've seen in your clinical experience and what you've seen patients do which helps them reduce or eliminate their somatic symptoms and chronic pain?" An even shorter version of that question would be: “Based on your clinical experience, what causes a reduction or complete elimination of in symptoms for people who present with somatic complaints or chronic pain?" Regards, Roger He David's reply Thanks, these short versions are a big improvement. Here are the quick answers: The critical thing is to come up with one or more positive thoughts that are 100% true, and that reduce your belief in the negative thought. If you send a specific example, it would help. There are several rules about getting workable negative thoughts as well. Perfection is never possible in the universe of daily mood logs, but excellence certainly is. A change in belief in neg thoughts is the goal. In my experience, somatic complaints, such as undiagnosed pain, dizziness, fatigue, and more, are often created or magnified by (or the expression of) negative emotions, as well as hidden emotions / problems. The average reduction of pain, for example, will be 50% if there is a dramatic reduction in negative feelings, or if the patient identifies and tackles some unexpressed problem, like anger, or unexpressed grief, or loneliness when the kids go off to college, and so forth. An average of 50% means that some people will experience a complete elimination of the negative symptoms, like pain. Some will experience no improvement. And some will experience some improvement. With regard to how or why this works, I don't really know, and don't think that anyone knows. But it seems like negative feelings, like depression, anxiety, anger and so forth have a magnifying effect on negative feelings. On the podcast, I can give a personal example of when I was in the Stanford emergency room, screaming in pain from a broken jaw. I can also give an example of what happens to my low back pain when I am in an especially good mood and I am out jogging. Best, David 3. TOZ asks: Does passive aggressive behavior result from All-or-Nothing Thinking? Hi David, I thought my therapist will tell me once he gets to know me that I'm passive aggressive and therefore I do things particularly anxiety disease as all or nothing black or white. I was wondering for you not to answer my case but in general does passive aggressive attitudes or approaches result from all or nothing thinking? Thanks, Toz David's reply. Thanks, Toz. Great question! To find out, you would have to do what I have recommended for nearly 50 years. Write down your negative thought on a piece of paper (can you do that?) and identify the distortions in it, using my lit of ten cognitive distortions. Let me know if you've done this. Most people refuse to do it! Warmly, david Toz replies: So I did your exercise. My thoughts were: I'm crashing. Help I'm scared. I'm going to die. Help me laud. Help me laud. Distortions: predicting the future. Magnification How is that? I looked up. Saw that was fine. Felt better. Then I checked my pulse. Not too fast so okay. Toz. David's reply to Toz, That, Toz, is totally cool! Way to go! Could also add: Emotional Reasoning. You identified two super important distortions that are always present in fear, paranoia and anxiety. Cool, cool, cool! David's comment: This is why I ask for specific examples when people ask general questions. As you can see, Toz asked about passive aggression, but his specific example turned out to be all about something entirely different: anxiety and panic. He did a great job of testing his negative thoughts with the Experimental Technique. Warmly, Rhonda, Matt, and David

I have a Masters degree in Somatic Psychology from Naropa University, 1998, and ran a bookkeeping business for therapists and artists. In 2001, I merged all my training and created a somatic-based Financial Therapy methodology that I've been teaching via my Art of Money program and a Mentor Program. I am also the Author of The Art of Money: A Life-Changing Guide to Financial Happiness and The Art of Money Workbook. In my group programs and private financial therapy, I've guided thousands of people to bring healing, un-shaming, and empowerment to our money relationships and all that it touches. I live in Boulder, Colorado with my husband, son, many cats + large puppy.OTHER RESOURCES, LINKS AND INSPIRATIONS:Fight, Flight, Freeze and Fawn are common trauma responses that reveal how the nervous system reacts to stress or danger. In this episode, we explore these instinctive behaviors and their impact on emotional regulation, decision-making, and relationships.The four trauma responses most commonly recognized are: Fight – when we believe that if we are able to maintain power over the threat, we will gain control. This can look like physical fights, yelling, physical aggression, throwing things, and property destruction. It can also look like balling your hands into fists, feeling a knot in your stomach, crying, being argumentative, or experiencing a tight jaw.Flight – when we believe that if we are able to escape the threat and avoid conflict, then we will not be harmed. This can look like running away and avoiding interactions with others," notes Moronu. To avoid uncomfortable feelings, you may escape the situation by staying busy or fleeing for the exit whenever things get tough. Freeze – it might look like being at a loss for words, retreating into your mind, having a hard time breaking out and being present, sleeping, dissociating/spacing out, and going emotionally or physically numb.”Fawn – people-pleasing and engaging in pacifying behaviors. It's characterized by prioritizing people above all else by doing whatever they want to diffuse conflict and receive their approval. It seems good to be well liked and defer to others to secure safety, but not when it's at the cost of losing yourself. It can reach a point where you abandon yourself and your needs by merging so thoroughly with others.“Fight, Flight, Freeze, Fawn: Examining The 4 Trauma Responses” – Julie NguyenTamara SlaytonPeter LevinePersonal Geometry and Family Constellation Work The Big Leap by Gay HendricksSo Barbara Stanny Overcoming Under Earning Mikelann ValterraENCOURAGE US!: Donate $5 THE WIND BENEATH OUR WINGS.

AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by Dr. Justine Britten, a PhD animal scientist working at Udder Health Systems Inc. This episode is brought to you by the AABP Milk Quality and Udder Health Committee. AABP members with an interest in milk quality are invited to volunteer to serve on the committee. Find out more information about the committee by visiting this page. Staph aureus is a contagious mastitis pathogen and Britten states that every dairy is affected to some degree by Staph aureus with a huge range in severity and prevalence between herds. Veterinarians play a key role in developing monitoring and prevention programs. Culturing remains a key point in identifying animals that are affected with Staph aureus so they can be evaluated for culling, segregation or treatment. Cultures should focus not only on clinical animals because Staph aureus is commonly a subclinical infection. It is estimated that 2-15% of heifers will freshen with the infection and their somatic cell count may be low for some time before it begins to climb. Treatment should be reserved for heifers and it is critical to identify it early in the course of infection to increase chance of treatment success. Britten states that in most circumstances, there is no need to do sensitivity testing on milk cultures unless there is an outbreak situation with apparent treatment failures. Bulk tank cultures are important and a minimum for routine herd mastitis monitoring. The sensitivity of bulk tank cultures is low but serial positive silos from a dairy indicate a higher prevalence of the infection up to 5-10% of the cows. We also discuss that in outbreak situations it is important to evaluate why cows are getting infected and remember that cows typically get infected in the parlor and focus efforts there. This includes evaluating teat condition, parlor procedures and equipment function. Aggressive culturing programs, segregation and culling are important to minimize risk. Britten provides these three take-home points for veterinarians:Take-home point #1 – Not all Staph aureus colonies exhibit beta-hemolysis, therefore, it is important that all Staph colonies undergo coagulase testing to identify Staph aureus.Take-home point #2 – Monthly bulk tank cultures are a bare minimum monitoring program for dairy farms.Take-home point #3 – Somatic cell count is a lagging indicator and cultures will detect infections earlier.Mastitis is the number one disease of dairy cattle and should be involved in milk quality and mastitis prevention programs. The Milk Quality and Udder Health Committee has developed guidelines for milk quality service providers.

Y'all are going to LOVE today's episode. I spoke with Somatic Sobriety Coach, Elan Hardy. Before she was ten years old, Elan had smoked weed and taken mushroom, which was common in the culture in which she was raised - traveling with the Grateful Dead as a child and teenager. Her early drug use escalated into opiate addiction as an adult. After getting sober, Elan discovered somatic therapy is a form of body-centered therapy that looks at the connection of mind and body and uses both psychotherapy and physical therapies for holistic healing. In addition to talk therapy, somatic therapy practitioners use mind-body exercises and other physical techniques to help release the pent-up tension that negatively affects a patient's physical and emotional wellbeing. Elan is certified in Somatic work and is also an addict in recovery. Combining her training and lived experience, Elan specializes in somatic and sobriety coaching. Elan is also offering all of you a free resource, simply DM her and she will send you free somatic exercises designed specifically for those in recovery.

Coaches. Let's talk about that moment when your client knows exactly what they need to do but can't seem to follow through. Maybe they avoid the hard conversation, backtrack on boundaries, or stay stuck in the same self-sabotaging patterns. You've given them all the tools, yet nothing seems to shift. Frustrating, right? Here's the truth: it's not about the tools—it's about their nervous system. In this episode of Shadow Work, WTF?, I'm pulling back the curtain on somatic shadow work—the missing link in coaching that transforms your clients' deepest patterns. This is for you if… You're a coach who feels stuck when clients don't follow through, no matter how much awareness they have. You want to help clients break free from people-pleasing, self-sabotage, and burnout for good. You're ready to stand out in the industry by facilitating deeper, lasting client transformations. We'll dive into: Why mindset work alone isn't enough to create real change. How your clients' nervous systems sabotage their progress (and what to do about it). The root cause of self-sabotage, people-pleasing, burnout, and procrastination—and how to spot it. How somatic shadow work helps clients integrate change at a body level so it actually sticks. This is the key to unlocking the transformations you've been trying to facilitate—and helping your clients achieve the lasting breakthroughs they're craving. Key Points and Timestamps: 00:00 - Why I'm shifting gears I share why I'm moving away from business coaching and fully committing to shadow work—and why every coach needs this work in their toolbox. 06:00 - What is somatic shadow work? How somatic shadow work bridges the gap between mindset and body, helping clients create sustainable, embodied change. 18:00 - How the shadow is formed How childhood conditioning shapes the shadows driving your clients' behaviours—and why this matters in coaching. 27:00 - Why your client's body is hijacking them Why clients can't just “do the thing,” no matter how much awareness they have—and how the nervous system holds the key. 39:00 - Spotting shadows in your clients Practical tips for identifying your clients' blind spots and understanding the behaviours that keep them stuck. 46:00 - The ripple effect of shadow work Why mastering somatic shadow work isn't just transformational for your clients—it's game-changing for you as a coach.

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:
"I could have kept it a secret. I could have let my fear and anxiety dictate my behaviors. But instead, I want to leave some of the baggage at the door and complete this experience through my nervous system." –LindseyAre you prepared for the moment hate calls?In this powerful bonus episode of Gather at the Well, Lindsey opens up about a deeply personal and unsettling experience — receiving a violent, harassing phone call.

Should I stay or should I go? This is our theme this month, and each week I will drop a short tidbit from my online course titled the same. Today, I am addressing the importance of connecting to both our experience as a spirit and as a human body when we are navigating the super challenging decision of leaving or staying: in a job, career, business, or relationship. We need to honor the spiritual lessons and understand them in our minds, and we also need to make space to grieve our human experience. The grief is both about the present and the past trauma that is coming up as we navigate this tough decision.

I really believe that we're here to learn lessons and everything that happens to us." "If we don't feel the emotions that are coming up, we understand the lesson in our head, but that is not going to shift anything." "The process of integration requires both feeling the pain and understanding the lesson. That's how we change patterns and shift our reality." "Our soul experience and our human experience go hand in hand, and we must honor both to truly transform." "I'm not telling you to leave or stay; I'm empowering you with tools so you can feel powerful enough to make your own decision." ❥❥❥ FREE RESOURCE: a step-by-step process of working with your triggers TRIGGERED TO ROOTED: A ROADMAP TO CREATE TREASURES FROM YOUR TRIGGERS This powerful step by step process will walk you through how to somatically move through a trigger, ground yourself, allow the emotions to come up and experience massive growth in your life Download here: https://marinayt.com/trigger-2-rooted ❥❥❥ Follow me on Instagram: www.instagram.com/marina.y.t
Happy Satiated Saturday! Body image concerns are often one of the many challenges that fuel disordered eating and eating disorders and are one of the worries that continue to stick around long after you've found a safe relationship with food. There can be an expectation when you've healed your body image challenges that you'll never worry about the way your body looks, that you'll never compare your body to someone else's body ever again, that you'll love the way you look in pictures, and that you won't even care if your body changes. A somatic approach to body image would be increasing your capacity to be with body discomfort, meeting your body worry with curiosity, exploring the nervous system message in your body judgment, and regardless of what you think about your body, knowing that you are still safe in this body.
